"Oh no, no, no......" The sound sounded here, and the drums sounded over there.

"What's going on?" Shao Yunhua stood up, his smile retracted, and he suddenly became the majestic Shangguan.

Patriarch Liu is stunned! I can't help but sigh now, it's a noble girl in Beijing.

"Most of this drum is a bandit."

"Bandits?" Shao Yunhua's face sank like water: "Are there often bandits here?" ”

"It's not very often, otherwise everyone will be gone." Patriarch Liu looked at Shao Yunhua's face carefully: "This gang of thieves is on the run, and after committing a crime here, they ran to the Ming Kingdom, did it there, and then ran back, so it is difficult to catch them." Of course, he didn't say anything in the next sentence, and the court didn't seriously suppress the bandits, but exploited them, so their impression of the court was so bad.

"In the past, the county order may have suppressed bandits." Shao Yunhua is not ambiguous at all.

"I've been here before, but the bandits are fast." Thinking that they were officials in the same dynasty after all, Patriarch Liu complained to Dake, but he was only vague.

"In other words, I just came here to go through the motions, you can rest assured, the former county magistrate has been dismissed and investigated, and escorted to Beijing." It seemed that seeing Patriarch Liu's concerns, Shao Yunhua directly reassured him.

"Shangguan is very clear, and the county order is not only a formality, but also a tea fee, so at the beginning, everyone was willing to report to the official, and then they simply figured it out by themselves." Patriarch Liu breathed a long sigh of relief, Shangguan was really different from before.

The two of them had already reached the hall while they were talking, and the various patriarchs came in front and back.

"Where did the bandits attack?"

"This gang of bastards attacked the village of the patriarch of Lao Shi and the village of Lao Min." Patriarch Wang was not angry at this time, but changed his face to be angry.

"I've been harassed for about three years, and I was expecting my village to be vulnerable to attacks this year, but now it's only two months ahead of schedule." Patriarch Min has a bottom in his heart, although the thieves are ahead of schedule, but they have almost prepared, even if there is a loss, it is not a big problem, and the loss of some money and food is unavoidable.

Patriarch Shi was panicked, his village has always been relatively poor, but poverty has the benefit of poverty, the so-called poor rats are afraid when they see it, then there must be no thief, why did the thief run into his own village this time?

Patriarch Zhao glanced at Shao Yunhua quietly.

Shao Yunhua didn't realize that she was now full of thoughts about how to destroy this gang of bandits, and Shui Dai didn't see this obscure glance, but she guessed it, so she sighed: "It's us who tired you." ”

"Huh?" Shao Yunhua's face was dazed, and he didn't react.

"Presumably, this group of bandits has an internal response, and our arrival must make them think that we have given some benefit." Shui Dai lowered her eyes, her face full of guilt.

Patriarch Zhao's heart is hot, there are really not many people who can be so honest about the calamity they have brought about it.

Others also realized instantly.

"So the village of the Min patriarch was also attacked in advance?" Shao Yunhua's face is cloudy, and water can drip out.

"Well, I think so."

"Good, good, good!" Shao Yunhua showed a cruel smile, which made this hot natural cold, many people shivered, and silently took two steps back, the best looking little lady, why is it so terrible?

But soon, everyone didn't feel terrible, and someone from the Min patriarch's side soon came, telling them that in addition to being robbed of some food and cloth, only a few people were slightly injured, and the Min patriarch breathed a sigh of relief, which is good, it's okay.

"Let's go back and transfer troops by the way."

"Okay." Shui Dai nodded.

Patriarch Shi was also anxious, and naturally agreed to go back immediately.

The other patriarchs were also afraid that the bandits were killing them, so they all rushed back immediately, and the meeting ended.

Entering the Shi patriarch's stockade again, Shao Yunhua kicked the stones under his feet fiercely.

What catches your eye is a ruined wall, almost all of the old but delicate small buildings have become dilapidated and charred, the grain that was originally a few families drying outside has also been looted, and the somewhat lively village is like a tomb, silent.

Patriarch Shi cried at that time, and ran inside like crazy, Shao Yunhua's mood was also very heavy, and it was hard to believe that a small village that was originally poor but united and happy was ruined like this.

But when they stepped in, in addition to the traces of being burned, there were still traces of being burned, but after walking around, Shao Yunhua and Shui Dai breathed a sigh of relief, there was no corpse, even if it was burned, but so many people couldn't all turn into ashes, right? So people are fine.

Just thinking about it, there was a strange voice over there: "Shangguan? Patriarch? ”

When everyone looked back, it turned out to be a vine tree.

"What about vine trees, vine trees, people? What about people? The patriarch played a neat and unbefitting age, and grabbed Fujiki's shoulders at once.

"It's all in the woods." Fujiki returned.

"Let's go, into the woods." The patriarch immediately waved his hand.

The group followed the vine tree into the forest, only turned a few times, Shao Yunhua, a professional map-drawing person, was also dizzy, and couldn't help but sigh, fortunately there is such a place.

Finally turned to the place, it turned out that there were two big caves here, the people in the village were hiding here, everyone was drinking porridge, there was little soup and water in it, there were not a few grains of rice at all, but they still ate carefully, Shao Yunhua saw with his own eyes that someone licked the bowl clean, even cleaner than washing, and instantly felt sad and hated himself for not thinking it through.

"You're all here, it's okay." The old patriarch let out a long sigh of relief.

What greeted him was a dead silence, Shao Yunhua and Shui Dai's hearts instantly hung up, could it be that there was anything else, their faces were extremely ugly in an instant, and the smile on the face of the old patriarch over there also froze.

At that moment, the silence was broken by the baby's cry, but it was faint, as if it was covered by something.

"Why is the baby crying?" Shui Dai had a vague bad premonition in her heart, but she still held on to the last ray of hope.

Fujishu lowered his head: "When we retreated, it was fine, and the food was given to them, but the baby cried, and was discovered by the group of thieves, and Brother Xiong wanted to lure the thieves away...... As a result, Ying's sister-in-law gave the baby to Brother Xiong, and said, said, said, ......" vine tree cried silently.

"What the hell?" Shao Yunhua's forehead was bruised.

"Sister-in-law Ying felt that she was a woman, and she could attract the attention of the thief more, she led the thief away, and then we found the body of Sister-in-law Ying in the opposite direction, woo woo woo ...... "Fuji tree is not very old in the end, thinking that the Ying sister-in-law who loves him is gone, crying sadly."

In fact, he hasn't said it all, when Yingzi died, half of his clothes were stripped off, his face was spent, and his head was full of blood, which means that Yingzi was not killed by bandits, but committed suicide, why suicide is self-evident.

Shao Yunhua's face was gloomy and gloomy, and before Shui Dai could react, he turned around and left.

"Yunhua, where are you going?" Shui Dai saw that Shao Yunhua's face was wrong, and even called out her maiden name in a hurry.

"Troop transfer." Shao Yunhua cherishes words like gold.

"What are you anxious about? I want to settle them all, and when you bring in troops, they will starve to death first. Shui Dai grabbed Shao Yunhua's sleeve tightly.

Shao Yunhua's feverish head calmed down at this time, but he only changed his mind for a moment and said, "Go back and ask Sister Mei to transport the rice and grain, or everyone can go out with me." ”

"Are you going out with us, or are you bringing in the grain?" Shui Dai asked everyone.

The big guy was silent for a while, leaving this village, no one wanted to, but now there is nothing to eat, how can this work?

"Shangguan, is it okay to take the children and the old man away? We stayed from the newly built stockade. "Shi Pan's brain is brilliant at this moment.

"That's fine." Shui Dai nodded, these people were still a little wary, but this was normal: "As for your food, I will send someone to send it." ”

"Thank you, thank you, thank you." Thank you all in unison.

Shui Dai's face was feverish, if they knew that it was because of the arrival of themselves and Shao Yunhua that the thieves came to loot, I don't know if it was still in this state?

Shao Yunhua and Shui Dai walked back almost day and night, Shao Yunhua didn't say a word on the way, drank saliva when he was thirsty, and ate dry food when he was hungry, and really took the word rush to the extreme.

It wasn't until I was about to get out of the forest that I found the horses, it turned out that Xing'er thought that Shao Yunhua and they had been gone for the past few days, and she was anxious, so she took the horses to meet her, and she had been waiting for two days, which came in handy at this time, and Shao Yunhua quickly whipped all the way back to Canglan Mansion.

Mei Xin was really shocked when she saw Shao Yunhua's appearance, Shao Yunhua was covered with wind and dust, not to mention, the fierce aura on her body could almost burn people, what was wrong? Looking at Shui Dai, she also looks like a dusty servant, which is too far from everyone's girlfriends? But if the conversation with the village is not good, how can you go for so many years? Mei Xin was really full of doubts.

"Go get some hot water, you two want to wash up."

Shui Dai saw that Shao Yunhua didn't move, and persuaded: "It's better to wash up first, and smooth out Sister Tongmei's explanation." ”

Shao Yunhua nodded.

Shui Dai secretly gave Mei Xin a look, and Mei Xin bowed slightly.

Shao Yunhua soaked herself in hot water, the chaotic brain, finally stopped roaring, and the people gradually calmed down, she and the local guards did not know each other, although there was a supreme decree to act cheaply, but the so-called county officials are not as good as the current management, even if the other party transfers troops to themselves, whether these soldiers can listen to themselves is still a question, so for now, it is better to repair the village of the Shi patriarch from the new.

Over there, Shui Dai was taking a bath, in addition to the maid beside her, Mei Xin also sat on the chair and asked her what was going on, why she had been gone for so many days, Shao Yunhua's face was so ugly.

Shui Dai said it succinctly, Mei Xin couldn't help nodding, hearing the question of the thieves behind, she also frowned, and finally said: "I'm afraid it's not so easy to transfer troops, it's better to think about how to transfer food for them." ”

"Well, I think the same way, I hope Yunhua can think clearly." Shui Dai communicated with Mei Xin in advance for this matter, Mei Xin was older than them, looking like a big sister, Shao Yunhua respected her very much, so she planned to let Mei Xin persuade one or two.

To their surprise, although Shao Yunhua's face was still ugly, he didn't say anything about the transfer of troops, but asked Mei Xin how to arrange it.

"We still have a lot of small bamboo buildings here, which were originally built according to the three thousand, but there are relatives one after another, most of them have left with their husbands, and there are relatively few left, so they are a lot empty, and there is no problem with these bamboo buildings to accommodate some people." Mei Xin deserves to be the big housekeeper, and immediately explained the matter clearly.

"Okay, then I want to arrange for the old and young children, and I need to find a nurse to feed the child." Shao Yunhua's face turned gloomy when he thought of the baby who had lost his mother shortly after birth.

"Well, I also ordered the food, thinking that Tian Da would bring some people to escort it over, I thought about not too much, what do you think?"

Shao Yunhua paused, and then nodded: "Well, it is sent every day, but it is delivered every day." "This is to prevent the bandits from killing a horse gun, since they have an internal response, then they will definitely know the amount of things they send every day.

"I'll rest for the night today and leave for Baoshan tomorrow." There is a garrison in Baoshan, and Shao Yunhua went to transfer troops.

"Okay." Mei Xin and Shui Dai both agreed that it was imperative to transfer troops, but Shao Yunhua's state of mind just now was not good.

Shao Yunhua didn't sleep all night, thinking about how to transfer troops, but her eyes were black, she couldn't think of it at all, she had never experienced such a thing at all, and she had never gone out to do such a thing, so now her eyes were black, she had no clue, and she had a headache for a long time, and finally fell asleep because she was too tired to travel for days.
