Chapter 7: The Ink Maker [Ask for Votes, Ask for Recommendation Votes!] 】

Daniu Village is a small village with more than 100 people on the edge of the Great Wall.

Men and women weave, although the life is hard, they can barely get by.

Late at night, the village is quiet.

In this era, there was no entertainment, and people who had worked all day were tired and turned off their lights early to rest.

After all, I was already tired after a long day's work, and I couldn't have applauded love all night.

Not to mention ordinary people, even if you change the gourd little King Kong, you can't bear such a toss!

Except for the occasional sight of two villagers on patrol at night, there was not even a sound of a dog barking.

Although Meng Tian drove the Huns away, this is a frontier after all, even if you don't guard against the Huns, you have to guard against wild beasts.

"Who?"

Suddenly, two villagers who were patrolling the night paused and hurriedly whispered questions.

In the dim moonlight, they saw what seemed to be a person ten meters away!

In the middle of the night, a person suddenly appeared, and the two villagers immediately became nervous, holding the weeding fork and staring vigilantly ahead.

"Two big brothers, it's me."

In the dark shadow, a beautiful woman with graceful posture, red lips and white teeth walked out.

The delicate face looks red under the torch, and people can't help but feel the urge to take a bite.

However, the two of them did not dare to be rude to the woman who suddenly appeared.

After seeing the person who came, the hanging heart also fell, put away the fork, and said with a smile: "It turned out to be Miss Yuxuan." ”

"Miss Yuxuan hasn't slept late at night, it's the first time she has arrived in the wilderness of the frontier, and she is not used to the bitter cold of our place, right?"

Another middle-aged man also asked with a grin, a hint of admiration in his eyes.

I secretly sighed in my heart: "The girl from the big city is beautiful!" ”

Yu Xuan cut her hair, revealing her white teeth, and said with a gentle smile: "I always feel unsure, so I want to take advantage of the night to see the terrain again, and I can also arrange defenses for you tomorrow."

Even if you can't defend against the Huns and thieves, at least you can block some wild beasts and protect everyone's safety. ”

The two of them looked grateful, and secretly sighed in their hearts: "No wonder, even the lieutenant chief has to be polite to this girl and the five people he brought." ”

During the day, the beautiful girl in front of her took the trap set up in the grass outside the village by five of her fellow disciples, and caught several fat hares and pheasants.

In the bitter cold land of the frontier, being able to get a piece of meat and boil a pot of bitter vegetable soup is already a good enjoyment!

Yu Xuan put her hands behind her back and chuckled: "The two eldest brothers don't need to be polite, helping the people of the world is the standard of the Mo family. ”

Ding Ding Ding!

While the three of them were chatting, the copper bell hanging at the entrance of the village made a crisp sound, breaking the silence of the night.

"It's not good, there's a situation!"

Yu Xuan's eyes were condensed on the constantly shaking copper bell, and her pretty face showed a dignified look.

This brass bell was hung up in the afternoon, which played the role of early warning.

And on the hillside in the distance, there is also a simple bamboo building.

Every night, a person will be arranged to be on duty, if an abnormal situation is found, the rope will be pulled immediately, and the copper bell tied to the other end will immediately warn, so that the villagers have time to take precautions.

Originally, when the simple bamboo buildings were built, the villagers did not take it seriously, thinking that the village was defended by adobe walls and did not have to worry about wild beasts.

Besides, the murderous Huns were also driven away by General Meng, so where do you need to be guarded.

Unexpectedly, the warning bell that was set up in the afternoon rang that night, which was really beyond everyone's expectations.

"Is there a wild beast?"

Yu Xuan's delicate brows frowned slightly, her posture was dexterous, and she quickly jumped onto the adobe wall.

Standing up straight and looking into the distance, his jet-black hair fluttered gently in the night breeze, looking very smart and elegant.

The crisp ringing of the bell woke up the sleeping people, and they all went out to check the situation in their coats.

"Miss Yuxuan, what's going on?" The chief put on his clothes, grabbed the corner of his clothes with one hand, and asked suspiciously.

"Senior sister, is there a brown bear infested?"

Five young men dressed in uniform leaned over, still holding bronze swords in their hands.

They are all disciples of the Mo family, and they traveled outside the Saiwai with the senior sister this time.

It was only when I passed by Da Niu Village and received the warm hospitality of the lieutenant that I decided to stay for a few days and use my good tricks to set up a few traps for the villagers to guard.

The figure standing on the adobe wall seemed to be distracted and did not respond.

Yu Xuan's delicate brows were tightly locked, and because the night was dark and the distance was too far away, she couldn't judge the identity of the other party, so she didn't respond immediately.

A series of low, chaotic sounds of horses' hooves echoed in the quiet night.

In the distance, you can see torches lit up hundreds of meters away!

Under the reflection of the firelight, a cavalry team of about 300 people galloped quickly with torches.

Gradually, under the light of the torches, the lineup of the cavalry team was revealed.

I can already see the rough and hideous faces wearing animal skins!

"It's not good, it's the Huns!"

Yu Xuan snorted coquettishly, and her delicate face showed surprise.

There are only about 100 people in Daniu Village, and because of the recruitment, most of the men in the family have been called to the Shangjun barracks, and most of the rest are women and children.

There are only a dozen people who can really use the fork as a weapon to resist.

Even if you add the six members of the Mo family, it is impossible to resist the three hundred cavalry of the Huns!

Suddenly, the crowd that gathered heard that the Huns were coming, and immediately panicked.

The Huns, that is burning, killing and looting, not only robbing grain and livestock, but also killing all men, and plundering women as trophies!

To put it simply, chickens and dogs don't leave an inch of grass and don't grow!

Originally, I thought that with General Meng Tian leading the army to be stationed and the Great Wall to hold on, I could live with peace of mind.

Unexpectedly, there was still a small group of cavalry passing through the gap!

"Senior sister, what should we do?" A Mo disciple's voice trembled, and his face turned pale with fear.

Yu Xuan turned her jade neck, her eyes revealing determination.

He said in a deep voice: "What kind of temperament the Huns are, everyone knows that they can only fight to the death!" Even if you die in battle, you will never be bullied by these brutes! ”

The resolute determination seemed to infect the people present, and even the fear in their hearts was dispelled a lot.

More than a dozen strong men climbed up the rough wall, some with forks, some with firewood knives, and some hunters took off their bows and arrows on their backs.

Without exception, everyone's faces showed a look of determination!

After all, this is their home, and their family, and there is no way back behind them.

Even if it is death, you will have to fight with the Huns to the end!

Yu Xuan bowed her head slightly, and pinched the knife hidden in her sleeve.

This knife was used to commit suicide in order to avoid being captured and humiliated when he was defeated!

"Woooooooo......oo

As the cavalry approached, the strange cries of excitement could already be clearly heard.

Boom...!

Yu Xuan's sleeves fluttered, she drew her saber and ordered, "Open the mechanism!" ”
