Qin Xingyi got a message from Blacksmith Xu. In a hurry, he let go of the short sword and threw it beside the whetstone, and said, "I'll go at once." ”

"Wait, I'm going too." Xu Xiaodi hurriedly reported himself and said bravely.

"No, you can't go." As Qin Xingyi spoke, he began to perform light skills, and hurried to the south gate of Moli Town.

Blacksmith Xu touched his son's head, looked at Xiaodi's anxious face, and said comfortingly: "Xiaodi, don't worry, the eldest lady and your father will stop them from coming, and if you go to help, you will distract us, so stay at home and wait for us to come back." ”

Xu Xiaodi is a very sensible child, and when he heard his father solemnly persuade him, he knew that things were very serious, and nodded in agreement.

Looking at the back of his father running out of the gate, Xu Xiaodi walked over and closed the courtyard door, returned to the whetstone, picked up the short sword that fell to the ground, and continued to sharpen the knife, thinking in his heart: Little brother, when I grow up, I will protect you!

The night was thick, and the darkness before dawn shrouded Mo Lizhen.

For the first time since the town was founded, Moli Town was in great danger of being attacked by wolves, and everyone was nervous.

There is an unwritten rule in this three-way zone, that is, in the event of catastrophic danger, the adult men of every family must not hide in their homes and ignore them, but must intervene.

Renfu's appeal in Moli Town is extremely strong! The rapid sound of gongs pierced the night sky, disturbing the nerves of all the residents who were still asleep, and they ran out of their homes to inquire about the news.

Danger is an order! The approach of the wolves is a sign that the lives of everyone in the town are threatened! Residents picked up knives, guns, and sticks and prepared to participate in a collective wolf slaughter.

In this chaotic moment of panic, it shows the command ability of the core leader of Mo Lizhen! All the people obediently obeyed the arrangement of the mayor Ren Sheng.

Ren Sheng was very calm, organized the residents of the town to stand by, surrounded an encirclement with sandbags in the open space inside the town gate, prepared dozens of barrels of soybean oil and a large amount of firewood and grass, and prepared to adopt the tactics of burning the wild wolves.

The walls of the town are somewhat low, and in order to prevent wild wolves from breaking through the walls, the residents brought some stones to raise the walls.

Of course, it was the town's prime laborers who did the manual work, and the women and children stayed behind in the house.

Under the urgency of the situation, Ren Sheng quickly analyzed and judged, thinking that the south gate was the main gate of Moli Town, and should be guarded by heavy troops, so he asked the second, third, and fifth elders of Renfu to follow him to guard the south gate, and the remaining three of the seven heroes of Renfu were guarded separately for the other three town gates.

The arrangements have been set and everything is ready. Ren Sheng stepped on a large rock and looked into the distance through the wall.

The night was quiet, the moonlight was like water, there was a faint wolf howl in the cool night wind, and countless green lights were beating and flickering not far away, which was the hungry and greedy gaze of the wolf's eyes.

Since ancient times, the strife and struggle between humans and beasts is endless, especially in the face of ferocious beasts, people must not be soft-hearted, otherwise they will die, this is the principle of survival.

"How do you bring in wolves to shut down and fight wolves?" Ren Sheng muttered quietly, feeling that this was a tricky problem.

Wolves are cunning animals, and they have a way to deal with humans! Wolves are also afraid of places where humans live in packs. Therefore, the wolf king led the wolves to retreat a little farther away for a long time, and sent out a few sentry wolves to spy on the shuttle near the town gate.

Ren Sheng doesn't want to be in a stalemate with the wolves! In that case, the men, women and children of the whole town will face the danger of cutting off the water, and Mo Li's way of life will be cut off. Because Mo Li's drinking water depends entirely on a small stream that flows not far from the town.

The second brother of Ren Mansion followed closely behind Ren Sheng, and when he heard his self-talk, he knew that the meaning of the monologue of the boss at this time was that he hoped that he would put forward a reasonable suggestion, so he hurriedly stepped forward and offered advice:

"Boss, we can send someone out of the city, lure the wolves over with flesh and blood, and annihilate them in one fell swoop to prevent future troubles."

Ren Sheng thought to himself: This method is naturally known to the mayor of the town, but who should he send? For such a thing, which is very likely to lead to casualties, it is better to suggest something like that from someone else's mouth, so he asked:

"Second child, who do you think is appropriate? This task is too risky, most of the ** in the town are dragging their families, in case something goes wrong, the mayor of the town can't explain it to their families, and those women and children will go to Renfu to cry endlessly. ”

The second elder of Ren Mansion roamed the crowd for a while, stared at Xuanyuan Mingyu with malicious intentions, and prompted: "Boss, should you let that little yin thief carry out this task?" If he can complete the task, even if he is guilty of meritorious service, he can consider writing off his crime of kidnapping the second lady. ”

Ren Sheng got the suggestion, nodded, took the three brothers, walked to Blacksmith Xu's side in a big way, and ordered: "Blacksmith Xu, let him down." ”

Since Blacksmith Xu walked out of the gate of the Blacksmith Mansion, he saw that Xuanyuan Mingyu was struggling to walk, so he carried him on his back and walked all the way.

At this moment, Blacksmith Xu heard Ren Sheng's words, so he had to put Xuanyuan Mingyu down on the ground, and stood firm with Xuanyuan Mingyu's body, worried about Ren Sheng's bad idea of beating Xuanyuan Mingyu, and asked, "What do you want to do?" ”

Ren Sheng squinted at Blacksmith Xu, not wanting him to come out to make trouble again, and felt that he should first stop the conversation scene, and said coldly:

"Blacksmith Xu, you have also lived in Moli Town for a few years, and you can be regarded as a permanent resident of Moli Town, so you are responsible for the survival of Moli Town! What kind of situation will you face tonight, you must know in your heart, either all of us are trapped here by wolves, or we will get rid of all the wolves and avoid wolves, what do you think? ”

"Of course, I understand that I will do my best to participate in the fight against wolves." Blacksmith Xu understood the seriousness of the situation and replied simply.

Ren Sheng stood in front of Blacksmith Xu with his chest folded, with a somewhat bitter attitude, and enlightened step by step:

"Okay, you're pretty good. Since the matter of fighting wolves is very important, and it cannot be rushed together like scattered sand, and it is necessary to organize and plan tactical countermeasures, and it is necessary to have unified command, so tonight's wolf fight will be deployed by the mayor of this town, do you have any opinions? "Blacksmith Xu has lived in Moli Town for a few years, and Ren Sheng, the mayor of Zhilu Dao, has always been a high-minded decision-maker, and nodded: "I have no opinion." When it comes to fighting wolves, although the mayor of Ren arranges it, I just obey it. ”

"Very good, that's what you said, don't go back! Now, the mayor of this town wants to talk to this thief alone to discuss important matters, so please stay away for the time being. Ren Sheng said on the slope of the donkey.

"But why can't I listen?" Blacksmith Xu became alert.

"What? Do you want to repent? Remember what you just said, you promised to obey the arrangement! Ren Sheng said tightly.

Blacksmith Xu is loyal, not good at bickering and quibbling, he was forced to a dead end by Ren Sheng's words, and he couldn't justify himself all of a sudden, he regretted that he didn't raise his vigilance just now, and he never imagined that Ren Sheng would use this to make a mistake, so he made up his mind that even if Ren Sheng and Xuanyuan Mingyu talked alone, he was waiting by the side, and he couldn't play any big tricks!

"Hmm. You talk, I'll wait by the side. Blacksmith Xu had no choice but to make concessions, let go of Xuanyuan Mingyu, took a few steps back, lost his hand, looked up at the sky, and sighed.

Ren Sheng saw that Blacksmith Xu was easily dismissed, and was secretly proud, with a contemptuous smile on the corner of his mouth, and turned to face Xuanyuan Mingyu and asked, "Little Yin thief, there is a task that you need to complete now, do you dare to agree?" ”

Xuanyuan Mingyu felt that after Xu Blacksmith let go of himself, someone immediately twisted his two arms back, and when he looked back, it turned out to be the hands of the third and fifth elders of the Ren Mansion, and he felt that the road was narrow, and it was considered his bad luck to fall into their hands again.

He reluctantly raised his head, watching Ren Sheng ask for his opinion in a matter-of-fact manner, feeling ridiculous, thinking to himself why did Ren Sheng put on such a hypocritical face? It's good to have something to say.

Xuanyuan Mingyu blinked his eyes, looked at Ren Sheng with a strong spirit, and knew that he would continue to talk and listen to what poisonous tricks he would use.

As expected, Ren Sheng smiled fakely and continued: "Of course, whether you dare or not, you must agree to this matter. ”

"You...... Stop going around in circles. Xuanyuan Mingyu didn't want to accompany Ren Sheng to play a game of cat and mouse, and he didn't want to be teased by himself.

Ren Sheng's face changed very quickly, and he immediately restrained his smile, and said with a flat face: "Now, I will give you a task to lure the wolves over." As long as you lure the wolf into this newly built sandbag fence, you'll be done. We'll do the rest, and burn these hungry wolves to death. ”

"I'm going alone?"

"Of course! It's just you! This kind of thing doesn't need more people to take the risk. And you, who are just a prisoner in Mo Lizhen, whether you can make meritorious contributions to reduce the punishment depends on your performance tonight. The mayor of this town earnestly advises you not to pass up this opportunity. ”

"What chances? A chance to die? You know that my crime was framed, but you don't listen to your sister-in-law's words. ”

Xuanyuan Mingyu saw the sinister nature of Ren Sheng's proposal, and bluntly pointed out his sinister intentions.

Ren Sheng faked concern and said, "How could you be sent to death?" The mayor will tell them to prepare you with a sword and a torch of pine oil. The most important thing is that when you are done, all the people of Moli Town will think that you are a big hero! Renfu will also set up a banquet for you to celebrate. ”

Xuanyuan Mingyu thought of Xiaodi and promised: "I promise!" Don't want anything else, just for the safety of the people in Moli Town. ”

Ren Sheng thought that he still needed to talk more, but he didn't expect Xuanyuan Mingyu to agree to sacrifice himself to lure the wolf, and hurriedly ordered: "Second brother, prepare two big baskets." One box for him to ride, and another basket with a sword and a lit torch tied down from the town wall! ”

Xuanyuan Mingyu smiled and let the third and fifth children of Renfu set themselves up and put them in the basket.
