As soon as Zhang Chu told everyone his thoughts, everyone was stunned, and everyone couldn't turn around for a while. Thieves and bandits are all robbing others, so there is a reason to rob bandits.

Zhang Chu looked at everyone's expressions, silently walked to the grass shed in the courtyard, pulled off the pot on the stove and brought it to everyone. The meat in the pot still smelled strange, but everyone turned their faces to the side.

Zhang Chu said loudly to everyone: "Look at it, if you don't take risks, it will be us who will be in the pot in a few days." ”

"If you go to ******, it is better to be killed than to starve to death and be boiled and eaten!" Yang Biao, the eldest son of Yang Blacksmith, shouted excitedly.

The other people looked at the human flesh in the pot and were silent for a long time, and finally gritted their teeth and agreed with Zhang Chu's opinion.

Zhang Chu saw that everyone agreed, and immediately asked everyone to prepare separately. Yang blacksmith and his son found iron materials to make three short iron rods with tips, and then tied them to the three wooden sticks they found more than one person long to make three simple long spears.

Zhang Chu handed the spear to He Jin and Yang Blacksmith's two sons, and then taught them a simple thrust move, and asked them to cooperate with each other. After that, the three of them took their spears to the side and practiced.

Zhang Chu asked the others to carry the things stolen by the thieves with him to a hidden place outside the village, told the two girls and children to hide there, and left most of the dry food for them, and told them to wait here before the dry food was finished, and if no one came to pick them up when the dry food was finished, they would each flee for their lives.

After all the preparations were made, Zhang Chu and his party of six headed into the mountains.

Carpenter Wu is a local who is familiar with the surrounding environment, and while walking, he introduced the situation of the thief's lair to Zhang Chu. The main river in Yanchang County is the Yan River, and many of its tributaries flow out of various valleys and finally converge into the Yan River. The valley where Chaoyang Village is located has a small tributary of the Yan River, which flows out of the mountains through the basin where the village is located, and then through the mountain pass. Because of the river, although the drought has encountered for many years, the fields in the village still have some harvest, and the people in the village can survive, but it is precisely because of the grain that the small village is targeted by the thieves, and the whole village is slaughtered by the thieves of Banbianyun.

Approaching the entrance of the valley the terrain gradually rises, the high peaks on both sides sandwich a river and the road into the mountain, the road into the mountain is on the right side of the river, the left side has already formed a deep mountain stream due to the erosion of the river, the road on the right can accommodate a large car to pass, although the road has a certain slope, it is more difficult to walk, but this is the only road out of the mountain in the valley, the villagers in the valley can only enter and exit from this. Two deep ruts have been cut into the center of the road for many years. And the road is gradually rising, if the highest part of the hillside is built on the wall, it is difficult for outsiders to penetrate, no wonder Banbianyun chooses this valley as its lair.

While talking, everyone gradually approached the mountain pass, carefully observed and found that the thief did not arrange someone to be on duty at the mountain pass, Zhang Chu hurriedly led people through this hillside road. After passing the hillside, the eyes suddenly opened up, the valley is a very large basin, the stream passes through the basin, the two sides of the stream are large fields, near the foot of the mountain there are some houses, this is Chaoyangtun. According to previous interrogations, the thief was in the better walled courtyard at the head of the village.

Look at the sky and it's getting dark. Zhang Chu first found a hidden place outside the village for everyone to stop and rest, everyone leaned together with knives and guns and did not speak, although they couldn't fall asleep immediately, they were all enduring it, accumulating energy for the upcoming fight. Zhang Chu was worried about where everyone would go after this time.

Time passed little by little, and Zhang Chu estimated that it should be in the second half of the night, so he called everyone to repeat their respective division of labor and action arrangements, and went to the courtyard where the thief was located together.

When I came to the outside of the hospital, I observed, and there were no thieves sentry. Everyone climbed the wall and jumped into the courtyard, and Zhang Chu knew in advance from the interrogated thieves that there were four thieves living in the east wing of the courtyard, and one of the second masters lived in the main house. Zhang Chu decided to deal with the thieves in the wing room first.

According to the previous plan, Blacksmith Yang and Carpenter Wu blocked the window and door of the wing room with knives, while the remaining three people, including He Jin, followed Zhang Chu with spears. Zhang Chu came to the door of the wing room with a knife and gently pushed the door panel with his hand, but the door did not move, it should have been bolted from the inside.

Zhang Chu took out the soybean oil prepared in advance from his body, poured the oil on the door shaft as in the movies he had seen before, and then used the tip of the knife to flip the door bolt little by little, the door bolt moved, and the door bolt was opened with a soft sound. The door was silently pushed open, and Zhang Chu took the lead and walked gently into the house.

Through the faint light, Zhang Chu saw the situation in the house clearly, and the four thieves rushed to sleep outside on the fire kang inside, and there were bursts of snoring on the kang. Zhang Chu waved his hand to get the three people behind him ready. Zhang Chu himself lifted a knife and touched the thief on the kang, the thief was still asleep, this was a rare opportunity for Zhang Chu, Zhang Chu aimed at the neck of the leftmost thief and cut it, and cut the throat of the thief at that time, and the thief died without even making a sound. Zhang Chuqiang endured the discomfort in his heart after killing and slashed the neck of the second thief, the thief's neck was cut, but the accident happened at the same time, the thief's neck was cut at the same time a stream of blood splashed out along the wound, spraying Zhang Chu's face all over the body, and at the same time sprayed on the thief next to him, the thief woke up from his sleep, raised his eyes and saw someone standing in front of him with a knife, and immediately screamed and jumped up.

Seeing this, Zhang Chu shouted sharply: "Pierce! Three spears grazed Zhang Chu's side and pierced forward, piercing into the thief's body at that time.

Zhang Chu didn't have time to care about the life or death of this thief, so he picked up his knife and chased after the thief in the innermost. Because in such a short period of time, the thief had jumped up from the kang and hit the window, the window was smashed at once, and the thief flew out of the window along with the fragments of the window, but what made the thief depressed was that it was a knife that greeted him outside, it turned out that Wu Carpenter remembered Zhang Chu's words beforehand, and if someone ran from the window, he would cut it with a knife. When Carpenter Wu heard the sound of the window breaking, he mustered up the courage to close his eyes and slashed the knife in the direction of the window, and the knife just met the thief who jumped out, and a knife was cut on the thief's head, Carpenter Wu let go of the knife in fright, and squatted on the ground with his head in his hands. The thief jumped forward several more steps with the knife on his head before falling to the ground and not moving. At this time, Zhang Chu and others also chased out of the chamber.

Seeing that the thief did not move, everyone just breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly the window of the main room was slammed open by something, and everyone knew that there was still the thief's second master in the main room, so they all rushed to the window and surrounded the window, but they did not see anyone coming out.

Everyone was wondering, the door of the main room opened silently, a black figure quickly jumped out of the house, rushed towards the courtyard wall, the black shadow's hand grabbed the wall and got up to climb up, at this time three spears that were used as javelins were thrown at the black shadow, two were empty, but one of them was just stuck on the black shadow's legs, and the black shadow fell from the wall to the ground. Behind him, Zhang Chu had chased under the wall, raised a knife and slashed at the back of the man's neck, and the man fell to the ground and died without snorting.

Fortunately, the man with the spear just now did not run away from the thief. Before, Zhang Chu knew that everyone's fighting ability was poor, so he arranged this desperate style of play, but he didn't expect it to really work.

Zhang Chu asked everyone to quickly pick up their respective weapons, and then carefully searched each room, and found no other thieves before they were relieved.

Everyone relieved their nervousness a little, and Zhang Chu hurriedly asked everyone to light torches to find food. Everyone split up to look for it, and after a while, He Jin ran back, couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart, and shouted loudly to everyone: "Grain, grain, a lot of food." Everyone followed him to the yard next to him, and sure enough, they found that there was a lot of grain piled up in the yard, and it was estimated that it was about four or five thousand catties. It should be the thieves who killed the people in the village and concentrated all the food here.

"Let's hurry up and leave with the food on our backs, and the twenty or so thieves who went out to rob things outside the mountain will come back." The crowd hurriedly moved the grain.

"Big carts, big carts, we can use carts to pull food away." Yang Biao shouted happily.

When everyone heard the rumour, there were indeed four or five carts parked there. Everyone immediately happily went to pull the cart.

Zhang Chu looked at the cart but didn't move, and then suddenly said to everyone: "We're not leaving." ”
