Chapter 461: First Strike
Everyone was amazed. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
No one realized at all that at this hour, how could the fourth cousin, the fifth cousin, and the seventh cousin, who were supposed to go to school in martial arts, all appear at home.
They all said in unison: "What the hell is going on?" ”
The fourth cousin couldn't wait to say: "In the morning, I drove a carriage with Xiao Wu to climb the Chenguang of Guanlian Bridge, and a carriage came up on the opposite side and asked us for directions. Saying that, he couldn't help but feel proud: "Sitting in such a whimsy carriage, accompanied by so many healthy servants with five people and six people, even asking the women and Taoists to show their heads and ask for directions, which rule is this?" Isn't that! ”
"Naturally, we kept an eye on it, so we casually rebuked a few words and sent them away." The fifth cousin said: "I just saw that there was a healthy servant among them, walking and breathing like a practitioner, not to mention that the two arms are still so long, it is estimated that it can reach the knees if it is really vertical, so I asked him if he practiced Tongjiquan." ”
The fourth cousin nodded: "Yes, yes, yes!" But how did they know that these people were so careless, Xiao Wu just asked casually, they were like ghosts, they immediately changed their faces, hurriedly thanked them, and ran away! ”
When the fifth cousin heard this, he glared at the fourth cousin, and continued: "Now that I think about it, they obviously have a ghost in their hearts!" ”
"And there's such a thing!" Rao is pepper listened, and suddenly changed color.
This is really for my own home.
Even if they had been speculating on this path before, when the facts were in front of them, they still couldn't come back to their senses.
Seeing that everyone's attention was attracted by the fourth cousin and the fifth cousin, the seventh cousin couldn't help jumping to his feet: "And me, and me, I and my cousin of the Zhou family also met this whimsy carriage on their way to school." ”
As he spoke, he said in a very colorful voice: "It's exactly the same routine, as soon as they came up, they also asked us how to go by the Yujia, and I told them that they went the other way, and they should turn around and go west." They happily thanked them and asked if we could do them a favor. ”
As he spoke, he deliberately panted heavily, his eyes rolled around, and when he saw Lilac Willow's eyebrows raised, he was about to raise his hand and hurriedly said: "I just said no, let them play by themselves, and then we left, and they didn't follow." ”
"What does that mean?" The mist at the end of the bay leaves.
And the expression of the seventh cousin is no longer "proud" can be described, it is already a sigh: "They are so adults, they can't even do anything, and there are adults on the road, and they want to find a half-old boy like us to help, isn't this!" Can I believe their? He also raised his eyebrows: "Master, I'm not stupid!" ”
Xiangye's eyes widened, he really didn't expect that the seventh cousin also had such a clever Chenguang.
Hua Jiao and his brothers and sisters couldn't help but look at each other.
Lilac came back to her senses, and the slap that had been raised to her chest fell on the head of the seventh cousin without a little hesitation: "Who are you with!" ”
The bluffed seventh cousin shrunk his neck and almost ran away.
Lilac glared at the fourth cousin and the fifth cousin again: "It's even called a girl, and the girl is in the way of you?" ”
But that's all she has to say, how can she have time to care about these things with them!
With a long breath, he continued to sharpen the ink, and motioned to the peppercorns, who had never put the brush down, to record what happened to the three of them.
"Oh!" Sichuan pepper nodded, drew a piece of rice paper again, licked the brush, and wrote hard.
Lilac grinds ink on one wall, looks at the record of peppercorns on the other, but still can't believe it in his heart: "Today is Xiao Qi's first door, the fourth brother and Xiao Wu are about a quarter of an hour late, and finally we are probably Chen Zheng's door." ”
couldn't help but shake his head and said: "Obediently, I missed it three times in a row, is this our luck, or are they really memorizing words?" ”
reminded Wen Qi.
So he asked the four cousins and the three, "How did you come back at noon?" His heart moved: "It was the second uncle who took you back?" ”
The fourth cousin nodded: "My father originally planned to come back from leave, but I guess I was thinking about it on the way, so I went to the Grange by the way, and asked me not to go home by myself after school with Xiao Wu, and wait for him to pick us up." As soon as I asked, I learned that Lilac had also met the same group of people. Knowing that it was a bad thing, we immediately went to Lishiwei to pick up Xiao Qi, and sure enough, Xiao Qi was not left behind...... My dad said that our family has been targeted. ”
The fifth cousin nodded and added: "Not only our family has been targeted, but even our few have been targeted. ”
Looking at the dilated pupils of Lilac and Xiangye, he explained: "It's not easy to recognize us, after all, my fourth brother and I, as well as the carriage you go out to drive, have our family's mark, but Xiao Qi is going to school in the aisle, and they can recognize Xiao Qi in seven or eight little boys, it can be seen that we are in the light, they are in the dark, and they have already found out the bottom of our family's situation, and even our family has recognized it all." ”
Xiangye suddenly realized, couldn't help but shudder, and moved to the side of the pepper.
Lilac also nodded: "Xiao Wu is right!" I still can't figure it out: "Then what are they doing twice?" Kidnapping us and asking for money from home? ”
This time, it was the turn of the four cousins and the three to stare at each other: "Kidnapping tickets?" ”
They hadn't really thought about it.
Putting aside the details of the time in his heart, the fourth cousin shook his head slowly: "But in broad daylight, it is still a realm where people come and go, how can they have such courage to directly take people away, our family is not a vegetarian, and the archers of the Inspection Department are not rabbits!" ”
Fang Qing looked at the fourth cousin, he didn't expect him to have such a stupid bubbling Chenguang: "They really don't have the courage to kidnap people directly, otherwise it's hard to say if you can come back!" ”
He was already able to confirm his opinion, that gang of gangsters definitely came to the Qin family to get money.
The fifth cousin pursed his lips when he heard this, and nodded again: "Cousin is right!" Go to our brothers and sisters who have gone through this together: "Think about it, they really didn't want to fight with us. Otherwise, there are so many of them, they will directly bully them, tie us up and run, the incident happened suddenly, we were caught off guard, and we didn't even have the ability to resist. ”
Xiangye shook his head when he heard this: "Fifth brother, they are not soft on us, there was a healthy servant who was about to come over to arrest us at that time, but he was stopped by the slingshot fired by the third sister." ”
"Really?" The fifth cousin was surprised.
"Really!" Xiangye nodded heavily: "We escaped!" If it weren't for the third sister with a slingshot in her hand, and the second cousin rushing over at a faster pace, and Jiaojiao shouting to the passers-by in front of her, those bad guys were frightened by us, and we would have been arrested by them! ”
Xiangye said that her heart palpitated more and more, and she couldn't wait to burn two incense sticks for the Bodhisattva.
"Since they have premeditated, it may vary from person to person, from time to time, and from place to place, and they have already made a few preparations, just waiting for us to get into the trap." Luo Jihu said.
Mai agreed, and said with Lilac and Xiangye: "You are all little girls, there is only Luo Ji in the car, and the villains are inevitably negligent." ”
Wen Qi also bowed: "How do you know that you didn't talk to them at all, and immediately put on a posture of resistance." He looked at the fourth cousin and the fifth cousin again: "Xiao Wu is crooked, and as soon as he comes up, he will break their kung fu faction." I heard Xiao Ji say that the people who walk the rivers and lakes dare not despise and provoke the elderly, children, women, and monks. These four types of people, since they dare to come out and explore the rivers and lakes, must have extraordinary tricks. You have all shown such a hand, obviously not the posture of ordinary little boys and little girls, how dare they underestimate you. ”
He also said to the seventh cousin: "And our little seven, if it weren't for the cleverness, once I promised to help them, I would have fallen into their trap." ”
The seventh cousin nodded heavily, he was indeed very clever.
Everyone also nodded, all agreeing with Luo Ji, Mai and Wen Qi's analysis.
Hua Jiao, who has been immersed in books, has already recorded the experience of the fourth cousin, the fifth cousin, and the seventh cousin, put down the brush, shook his wrist, and said: "Since they have premeditated, but we have broken the game three times in a row, so what will they do next?" Will you give up, or will you give it a go? ”
Everyone fell silent suddenly, and looked at the peppercorns sitting in front of the bookcase.
The fourth cousin scratched his head: "That mother, no, that carriage is not cheap at first glance, and those healthy servants are definitely not very underneath, they gave up such a large capital, it should be impossible to give up like this!" ”
Xiangye suddenly thought of it, and grabbed the sleeve of the pepper: "Hasn't grandfather come back yet?" ”
Hua Jiao hurriedly comforted her: "Grandfather is accompanied by Master Chen, it will be fine, the fourth sister can rest assured." ”
……
Father Qin was indeed safe and sound, but when he returned from Chongtang with Master Chen, Qin Lianxiong had already arrived home with three little boys, and told him what happened to the fourth cousin, the fifth cousin and the seventh cousin.
"It was our negligence and recklessness that almost caused a catastrophe." Father Qin immediately decided: "Don't let the children go out these days." He pointed at Qin Lianxiong again: "If you let it go, you will say that our family has lost something important, and we have to find a way to find people by digging three feet into the ground!" "I asked Mrs. Qin to take five hundred taels of silver and give Qin Lianxiong some money.
Qin Lianxiong's eyes lit up, and he immediately responded, and he didn't eat lunch, so he went out with Qin Lianlong.
The brothers discussed some small details along the way, first went to the inspection department, and then went to find those familiar helpers.
Qin Lianhu and Master Chen stayed at home and took on the role of guarding the family.
Master Chen suggested stopping the schoolwork of the little children in the family: "Raise soldiers for a thousand days, and use them in one day." They have been practicing hard for so many years, and the time to show their skills has arrived. ”
Qin Lianhu was a little hesitant, but when he thought of his own tightly guarded fort wall, he calmed down again: "Then you see, how about dividing them into several shifts to patrol the fort wall?" ”
The two discussed dividing the sixteen little boys in the family into three shifts except for the eighth cousin, each class was led by the fourth cousin, the fifth cousin and Luo Ji, and patrolled the fort wall every two hours.
Gather the little boys, and the family will blow up at once.
Not for fear or indignation, but for complete joy.
Even Luo Ji, who has always been steady, couldn't hide their excitement.
I didn't expect them to come in handy and protect their families.
They all went back to the house to comb their hair and change their clothes, leggings and sleeves, and turned out all the treasures at the bottom of the box.
Slingshots, crossbows, ash rods, these things, especially slingshots, are all hand-made by these little boys at home. The fourth cousin and the fifth cousin also armed the knives and spears that they practiced daily, and Luo Ji even brought with him a bamboo stalk that Father Qin had spent two years building for him, which made the little boys envious.
Although Daddy Qin also promised to build them to build bamboo trees, but because the structure is too complex and the building process is too cumbersome, the processes of picking, winding, drying, dipping, and lacquering will take several months, and the painting will have to be repeated several layers, and each layer will have to wait until the upper layer is naturally dried before painting, which will take several months, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive, so Father Qin has only completed a handful of bamboo pipes so far and sent them to Luo Ji.
but frightened the head of the family enough to scare the daughter.
If it was said that it was just a fear, but this time I saw Qi Qi wearing ordinary martial arts clothes and fully armed little boys, it was not such a simple thing as being afraid, it was really a real moment.
Not to mention the Shen family, the Guo family, and the Zuo family, even the Du family, who has always been particularly bold, changed his face.
It took a long time for Mrs. Qin to spit out a mouthful of turbidity.
She didn't object to Daddy Qin's preemptive approach in her heart, otherwise they were in the open, those villains were in the dark, and the sea of people was vast, if they could prevent it for a while, could they still prevent it for a lifetime? Today, these children in the family are lucky, and they have all escaped, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable.
can see the little boys so majestic and high-spirited, but it is indescribably terrifying.
However, Qin Lao Niang is Qin Lao Niang in the end, Master Chen is busy instructing the little boys to set up defenses, Qin Lianhu found Du Second Uncle and his cadres who are playing with Bai Qin in the Dongtou Garden, and Qin Lao Dad also found the old uncle and the village chief Wang next door, and her old man is not idle.
With his daughters-in-law and granddaughters-in-law, he was busy counting all the materials at home, eating and wearing, measuring the specific amount, and cutting off the mountain spring water that was drawn from the Lotus Mountain at home, and the food was mainly well water......
In the blink of an eye, there was a fighting posture, and the legs of the pepper trembled a little, but Xiangye calmed down and gave Qin Lao Niang a hand, Lilac was even more excited, with three slingshots on her body, and a few marbles with a few purses hanging on her waist, and insisted on giving the pepper a few equipment: "If you can't say it, it will come in handy......"
Then, taking advantage of Yao's busy time to pay attention to her, they climbed the fortress wall and nested in their sisters' secret base pavilion to reconnoiter the enemy.
