In the courtyard of Zhang Youcai's house, there were a few more bandits, and for a while, the surrounding atmosphere suddenly became tense again.

I saw the previous leader, the stout man who entered the courtyard backwards, and the two muttered a few words, and the previous one also tore open the money bag and let the man take a look. The man had a dark face and an impatient look, and shouted, "Hurry up and lead the horses, look at the backyard, and carry all the sheep that can be slaughtered, and come and go quickly." Doing such a little work, it takes a long time. ”

So, the bandits hurriedly got two horses and a few sheep from the backyard.

Zhang Youcai's heart was so painful that he wanted to cry without tears, and he sighed with a sad face. From time to time, I peeked at the side room near the courtyard gate.

The bandits were quick with their hands and feet, tied up the grain and sheep, and left the compound as if no one was around.

When the last bandit walked out of the courtyard, from the courtyard of Zhang Youcai's house, more than a dozen civilian team members with hand-held guys suddenly rushed out, and the two sides were immediately at a stalemate from muzzle to gun. At the same time, several members of the civilian team rushed out of Zhang Youde's house, and the muzzles of their guns were pressed against the back of the bandits.

Xiangzi separated from the crowd and moved forward, shouting sharply: "Put down the gun in your hand, obediently dismount and surrender, and spare you from dying." ”

Before the words fell, I saw that the bandit who was leading before, and the short man next to him, suddenly pulled out their pistols and tried to resist.

was hit by the iron egg next to Xiangzi, and he shot two shots and fell under the horse. The bandits froze on their horses for a moment.

Xiangzi shouted again: "Whoever wants to move, the two of them are like this, quickly put down the gun, dismount and surrender!" ”

At this time, the stout man who entered the courtyard later, the thief's eyes turned, and he shouted at the bandits: "Throw all the guns away, admit it!" ”

As he spoke, the first one jumped off his horse, bent down to put the shell gun in his hand, and slowly lowered it to the ground. Seeing this, the others also jumped off their horses and threw their guns on the ground in frustration. People breathed a sigh of relief, but unexpectedly, two crisp gunshots rang out at the entrance of the village.

The members of the civilian team became nervous for a while, and the bandits also made a slight commotion.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the first strong man to dismount suddenly bent his waist, like an arrow from the string, rushed through the crowd, and rushed straight towards the backyard of Zhang Youcai's house.

Shoko just wanted to raise his gun to shoot, but saw that the courtyard was full of commotion figures. At the moment when he hesitated, the man jumped out of the courtyard wall like an ape. The rest of the bandits, under the strong pressure of the militia members, had to obediently hold their heads and fall to the ground.

Just when everyone was tying up the bandits, outside the backyard of Zhang Youcai's house, gunshots came again. Everyone unanimously turned their eyes to the direction of the gunshot. Only Xiangzi chatted with the village chief casually, as if he hadn't heard the gunshots at all.

It didn't take much effort, but I saw Du Shengren with a few self-defense team members, dejected, walking along the courtyard wall.

Before Xiangzi could speak, Du Shengren looked remorseful and shouted: "It's really a wretch!" The thing was running faster than a rabbit, and the trees were so dense that it took three shots to hit him in the leg. Seeing that he was about to be caught, he let two fast horses save him. At that time, we didn't have horses, so we could only watch them run away. ”

Shoko smiled gently at him and said, "I can escape from your snatch, unless it's providence." You've done your best, don't blame yourself too much. ”

As he spoke, he dragged one of the bandits and asked, "Is the one who escaped your leader?" What's his name? ”

The man timidly glanced at his accomplice, hesitated for a moment, and muttered in a low voice as if talking to himself, "He is our big leader, and his name is Hazhan Mountain." ”

When Xiangzi heard this, he secretly stomped his foot and said to himself, "It's a pity! ”

Zhang Youcai heard that the person who ran was Ha Zhanshan. With an uneasy look, he grabbed Xiangzi's arm and shouted, "What can you do, what can you do." Let that harmful spirit go, and you won't be able to find my hemp in the future, I'm afraid it will be a bane. ”

Xiangzi smiled indifferently at him and said, "You just put your heart in your stomach, Hazhan Mountain is shot, even if you don't die, you will become a half-faced, and you won't show your face again." ”

As he spoke, he beckoned Du Shengren to him and said, "These days, you arrange for people to keep an eye on his house to prevent the bandits from coming to retaliate." ”

While talking, two members of the Self-Defense Forces staggered into the courtyard with a fat and strong lamb in their hands.

Zhang Youcai raised his eyes and shouted in surprise: "Oops! Isn't that the lamb I lost? Why did it fall into your hands? ”

Xiangzi also looked at Du Shengren suspiciously, Du Shengren smiled slyly at the two, looked at the village chief who had been standing aside and stealing fun, and said, "You ask the village chief." ”

I saw the village chief, pursed his lips and smiled, and said: "That night, Du Shengren came back from the county and said that the militia was coming to suppress the bandits. He was worried about the fierceness of the dog's barking at night, and he was afraid that the bandit spies would become suspicious. I just counted with him, so I simply took Zhang Youcai's heart and hurt Zhang Youcai's heart, not afraid that he would be dissatisfied with the shouting in the world, so that the spies could rest assured. ”

Zhang Youcai listened, and deliberately angrily smashed a fist on Du Shengren's shoulder, and scolded: "You thief, why didn't you say it earlier?" The day has made me feel bad for most of the day. ”

The village chief smiled "hehe" and said, "Speaking of which, can you shout so desperately?" ”

Zhang Shengcai shook his head helplessly, and muttered: "You two are embarrassed, thinking of ways to make people happen every day." ”

Xiangzi took over the conversation and said with a smile: "He is two stinkers, but he has competed with one Zhuge Liangli." If it weren't for the two of them arranging this play, the result would be hard to say. I really didn't expect that there would be so many dogs in the village, and I was really sweating at the time. ”

As he spoke, Xiangzi patted Du Shengren lightly on the shoulder, and said with a pleased smile: "It seems that I have chosen the right person to let you be the captain of the joint defense of the three villages." ”

Du Sheng Renqian smiled and diverted the topic. shouted at Zhang Shengcai: "Don't come and pick up the sheep and get it into the pot." The brothers were still hungry. ”

Zhang Youcai woke up like a dream, and shouted at the cooks who were already planning to close the stall: "Come and get three more seats, and if the meat is not enough, you will slaughter it." ”

So, the courtyard that had been noisy for a while began to sound the sound of "ding ding dong dong" knife head again.

Zhang Youcai looked like a monkey picking up the fruit, fiddling with the money he got back from the bandits, and said with a smile at Xiangzi: "Oh, if you don't come this time, I will lose my life." Not to mention the money, my two jujube horses are worth a lot of money. ”

Before Xiangzi could speak, the village chief looked impatient and said, "Okay! Look at the way you look at your head. Knowing that we have a backhand, and we are very stingy in the seizure and search, we are not afraid of provoking the bandits and hurting people? You know the money."

Zhang Youcai was embarrassed and just wanted to say something, but Xiangzi took it with a slight smile and said: "Rich Master Zhang performed well today, if it weren't for him, he would still look unreal." ”

As he spoke, everyone laughed and went their separate ways.

However, this meal has a new story.
