"Shihua, don't look reluctant. Isn't it just that you have been separated for more than a month, so why can't you bear it? Along the way, seeing that Wang Shihua was not in high spirits, Wang Shirong persuaded and explained: "Let's talk about it again, the day of marriage is on the twenty-second of next month, and then you will have to live in her house for a year, and you will have time to be together." ”

Wang Shihua nodded and didn't say anything.

Wang Shirong looked back and said with a smile: "Your father-in-law is interesting enough, he directly gave you a silver ticket of two thousand oceans, but your cousin is a little verbose, look at it, the two carriages are full of silk, shoes and other things, tsk!" Tut! Even half a cart of snacks was prepared for you, for fear that you would be cold and hungry. ”

Behind them, in addition to the two dogs, the three-eyed cat and Uncle Jiang, there were also thirty Wang family fast gun teams that were urgently transferred by Uncle Jiang. Bloomers, short coats, cloth shoes on his feet, black handkerchiefs on his head, silver rings on his left ear, box cannon on his waist, machete on his left side, spear on his back, cloak on his body, riding a big horse, majestic.

In this era, Xiangxi, where the news of poor mountains and bad waters is closed, is still in a state when family interests are higher than national interests. And these thirty young people, all surnamed Wang, are loyal, agile, and all of them are warriors. To put it bluntly, they have grown up with the two young masters of the Wang family since they were children, and they are the team of the armed forces in the hands of the future head of the family, and each generation of the family will deliberately cultivate a group of people for the next head of the family.

"Shihua, what are you thinking?"

"I'm thinking that I have to do something after I go back, otherwise, I will be looked down upon by the people of the Zhang family."

"Then think about it when you go back. Shihua, we haven't raced horses for a long time, or not, Bibi? ”

"If you lose, you have to invite everyone to drink." Wang Shihua replied with a smile. Clamping the horse's belly, he went down with a whip, and the horse ran like an arrow.

"Wang Shihua, you are cheating with me again."

Wang Shirong roared angrily and hurriedly chased after him, and the escorts behind him naturally followed.

After running for a quarter of an hour, Wang Shihua suddenly stopped the horse.

Seeing that Wang Shirong, who was about to overtake him, hurriedly stopped his horse and shouted dissatisfiedly: "I didn't lose." ”

Wang Shihua smiled and raised his whip and pointed dozens of meters in front of him, and said, "Shirong, look, this is really a good place for ambushes." ”

In front of me is a straight avenue, on the right side of the avenue is a two-hundred-meter-high mountain, but when approaching the avenue, it is like a straight cliff cut by someone, and there is a stream two or three meters wide at the bottom of the avenue, and the deepest part is not up to the knee. Although the mountain on the left side of the avenue is relatively short, the side facing the avenue is like a knife slashed diagonally, forming a slope with an angle of about 30 degrees. And the avenue is nearly two miles away from the entrance to the exit.

"Shihua, you don't seem to have done business yet. Taking advantage of Daddy's absence, there are enough people. Why don't you open it here today? ”

Wang Shihua understood that the so-called business in Wang Shirong's mouth was to rob as a bandit.

Glancing at Wang Shirong, who was flickering with an expectant face, he smiled: "Do you know why I have always opposed you to robbing the people's things and making trouble for the people?" ”

Faced with the answer to the question, Wang Shirong shook his head and looked at Wang Shihua with a slight frown.

"You are not a woman, robbing the common people's things, in addition to ruining your own reputation, can you get it? How many bags of commi or how many patches of clothing? That's not enough for you to gamble on, it's really not worth it compared to fame. Wang Shihua looked at Wang Shirong lightly and said, "Do you know why Daddy wants me to be the patriarch instead of you?" ”

"Cut! That's because I don't want to be the patriarch, otherwise, I'm the boss, and I should inherit Daddy's position according to the rules. ”

"Don't fall in love with me, I know that you have wanted to wander the rivers and lakes since you were a child, and live happily and hatefully. But that's not the main reason why Daddy chose me not to choose you. ”

"Then why do you say that?"

"Just because you love to rob the people's things, and you don't distinguish between inside and outside."

Wang Shirong was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth and didn't speak, and after frowning for a while, he asked: "Even if what you say makes a little sense, but when you become the patriarch, you don't have to grab things." ”

"Robbing is a natural thing to rob, otherwise, the Wang family will be a rich man for the rest of his life." Wang Shihua nodded, squinted his eyes, and said proudly: "But if I want Wang Shihua to either don't do it, do it once, at least enough for my Wang family to eat for a year and a half." ”

"Shihua, I'm curious, what do you want to do in this life?"

"Daddy took the Wang family to snatch back half of Longtang Town from the Tian family, then I, Wang Shihua, will also lay a foundation for my Wang family."

Perhaps it was Wang Shihua's arrogance that aroused the blood in Wang Shirong's heart, he nodded and laughed: "Shihua, you deserve to be a great talent, and you have to get your speech." In the future, I will stop robbing the common people, but only those who have money. ”

You can't rob the rich, that's the way to die. Wang Shihua smiled bitterly and was about to open his mouth to point out the catechism, when the escort team came up. Wang Shirong smiled: "Don't talk about this. Shihua, I've been with you these days, my hands are itching, and while everyone is happy today, you can accompany me to do a deal, right? ”

Regarding this matter, Wang Shihua, who is not good at stubble, naturally has nothing to say.

Seeing Wang Shihua nodding, Wang Shirong turned around excitedly and asked, "Which of you doesn't know what kind of place this is?" ”

Uncle Jiang gasped, stepped forward, and said, "Young Master Shirong, this is Rolling Stone Gang." ”

Seeing that the two young masters looked at each other puzzled, Uncle Jiang pointed to the left side of the avenue and said with a smile: "You see, as long as you roll some stones down from this side, you can block the road...... Young Master Shirong, what are you asking about? ”

"He, he lost the bet just now, and it's not easy to repay the debt, so he wants to find some outer pieces here and let the brothers open the meat."

Uncle Jiang smiled bitterly and shook his head, but the guards behind him laughed happily.

'100,000 boys, 100,000 bandits!' That's true. In the villages of Xiangxi, half of them are bandits, and nine out of ten households are bandits.

Poverty, oppression, and the government's inability to protect or even condone it have created a deformed social atmosphere: if you don't work with bandits, you can just jump into the river if you are collected by the government with a lot of taxes; But some of your relatives have become bandits, and at least the tax soldiers will not dare to arrest you and go to jail because you can't pay taxes (if your relatives and friends are important people under a big bandit, ordinary bandits will not only dare not rob your home, but will even share you after the robbery, which is called a sitting bonus). It's not that you don't have the guts to bandit, but that you have to bandit, so banditry is becoming more and more rampant.

In fact, everyone has a little misunderstanding of the bandits in Xiangxi: in everyone's mind, the bandits must be the result of forcing Liangshan, and it is a matter of course for bandits to kill people like hemp and be lawless. But in Xiangxi, where the weak eat the strong, the profession of bandits is not ashamed. Because there are many powerful bandit leaders, they are inextricably linked with the local big families. To put it bluntly, they are the armed forces of big households, but in other words, there are even heads of families who directly become bandit leaders, sit on the ground to collect taxes, fish the people, and dominate one side. Therefore, it must be subject to certain constraints.

It is somewhat similar to the form of 'soldiers in wartime and people in peacetime': internally, they are the umbrella of their lives, and externally, they are bandits in the true sense. Relatively speaking, compared to the government's behavior of doing nothing but collecting taxes, they at least did not allow the people in their sphere of influence to be bullied by other bandits.

That's why Wang Shirong wants to be a big bandit and live happily for a lifetime, rather than being restrained as the head of the family.

These people had long been familiar with the 'banditry' behavior, and without the need for anyone to command, everyone consciously took action: twenty people were deployed at the entrance to the west of Rolling Stone Ridge, led by two young masters, and the other eight people were blocked on the side of the road half a mile away, led by Uncle Jiang. The other two went up to the mountains to watch the wind.

Everyone never expected: the fat sheep didn't wait, but they became fat sheep.

Wang Shikai and Wang Shining are both twenty-three years old, and they are cousins, the two of them talked and laughed and walked up the mountain to look at the wind, and there was no vigilance along the way, after all, it was a temporary intention to find an outer block, who would have thought that someone had already set up an ambush here.

The two of them went up the mountain for 100 meters, and just entered the dense forest less than 20 meters, when six big men suddenly jumped out: four people held guns, and two people held big knives.

"Don't move! Dare to shout a word, Lao Tzu will make your braincase bloom with a shot. ”

The two glanced at each other, the corners of their mouths moved slightly, and they slowly raised their guns and obediently tied up. But the bad thing is in this word 'tie'......
