In the soft snow under the dark night.

The maid's expression was extremely frightened, the hairpin on her head fell into the snow, and the face of the woman who was supporting her was full of panic against the background of the torch.

Li Chongjiu saw that there was an extra skirt knife under the woman's wrist.

The thieves wielded their knives, whining and whining, full of obscene smell, and under the torches in their hands, their eyes were as if they were hungry wolves.

Just as the thief was about to catch up, the woman suddenly shouted to the man beside her, "The thief is here, leave me alone, go quickly." ”

The man who was guarding the woman turned red, but he pushed the woman hard and shouted, "Erniang, run to the temple to hide." ”

With that, the big man turned around and stood still on his feet, obviously going to fight to the death.

But the sound of horses' hooves rumbled, and Li Chongjiu saw that the big man's body trembled, not to mention facing the enemy, he couldn't even hold the knife steadily, so he only heard a bang.

The fast horse flew into the man, and the other party flew out like a sandbag.

Bang! A pit was smashed out of the slush, and the man couldn't tell if he was alive or dead.

Seeing that the last obstacle had been removed, the thieves let out a hideous laugh like night owls, and drove their horses towards the master and servant.

At this moment, the skirt knife in the woman's hand flipped and was about to swing the knife.

At this moment, there was a buzzing sound, the neighing of the horse suddenly sounded, and a healthy horse suddenly turned on its back.

The thieves couldn't see what was happening, and then there was another bang, and everyone saw a shadow fly out of the temple, and a thief had a long arrow in his throat and blood spurting from his neck!

The thief turned over and fell off the horse, one foot still hooked in the stirrup, and the horse neighed, and immediately dragged the thief around.

In a matter of moments, two of the four horse thieves had been killed.

The two horse thieves were immediately frightened, and at this moment at the head of the village, the torches were bright, and the sound of shouting was heard, apparently the people of the village had noticed that there was movement here.

The two horse thieves did not know how many people were in the temple, so they immediately bowed down, stuck to the horse's back, pulled the horse and left.

There was another sound of a bow, and the third arrow grazed the horse, and the two horse thieves fled faster.

Li Chongjiu let out a sigh of relief and withdrew his bow from the window, the distance within twenty paces was difficult for him to miss with his archery skills, not to mention that it was a sneak attack by the enemy in the open and in the dark, otherwise he would not be able to save these two in the face of four guarded thieves.

At that moment, Li Chongjiu raised his bow and ran into the snow, and he ran to the big man first.

Listening to the big man's round and convex eyes, his throat was gurgling, and there was no air intake, Li Chongjiu knew that the other party was seriously injured and couldn't live, so he shook his head at the moment.

Immediately, Li Chongjiu walked up to the woman and the maid.

At this moment, the torch that fell to the ground popped and sounded, illuminating the woman's face flickering, Li Chongjiu saw that although the woman's face was pale, it was difficult to hide the bright color.

Although I haven't seen the national color of Li Zhiwan, it also adds a little pity and pity, which makes people feel pity.

However, Li Chongjiu secretly sneered, he could see clearly in the temple, when the horse thief approached, the skirt knife in the woman's hand was not to stab herself in the body, and she had saved her innocence by committing suicide, but was about to stab the maid beside her.

Needless to say, it can be speculated that he was unwilling to save him, but he couldn't bear to send the innocent maid to death, so he let go of the arrow.

Li Chongjiu pointed to the man who was about to die and asked, "Who is this?" ”

Seeing this, the woman quickly got up, ran to the man's corpse and cried. Li Chongjiu heard this woman crying loudly, but he had no intention of mourning, and he knew in his heart that this man was secretly worthless.

The maid said in a mournful voice, "That's the young lady's husband who has not passed through the door." ”

Li Chongjiu nodded, and although he heard the woman's cry loudly, there was no sadness at all, and his heart was bright at the moment.

At this time, the barking of dogs at the entrance of the village could not stop undulating, and a torch came, Li Chongjiu saw that there were about 30 people in the village who were holding hoes and wooden sticks.

Li Chongjiu secretly praised these people for not being slow to react, in this era, it is common for the village to settle households to protect themselves, and even in peaceful and prosperous times, there are thieves infested.

If the government can protect itself to the county seat, it is good for the state town, and the villages under it still have to rely on the villagers to protect themselves.

The head of the village is the head of the village (Note 1).

Li Zheng's surname is Zhou, called Zhou One-eyed, when he was with Yang Su, the Duke of Yue, when he was conquering the Turks, he was blinded by the Turks, and he served as Li Zheng after returning to the village.

Zhou Duyan held a bow in his hand and saw the four corpses in the snow, then looked at Li Chongjiu and asked, "Fang is the one you shouted as a thief?" ”

Li Chongjiu shook his head, pointed to the man on the ground who had just breathed, and said, "He shouted." ”

Zhou Duyan glanced at the man who was pounced in the snow, and the lonely man spinning an ownerless war horse, and guessed a few points. Zhou Duyan walked to the corpse of the thief lying on the ground and squatted down, checked the thief's weapon, and suddenly a little anxiety appeared in his eyes.

When Zhou Duyan said to everyone: "It's not an ordinary thief, but a deserter, and it should be a deserter to Liaodong." ”

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

Zhou Duyan walked up to the woman and the maid and asked, "I'm the lieutenant, where is the little lady?" ”

The woman lay on the man as if she was overly sad, and did not answer, but the maid spoke: "Back to the chief, my young lady is the daughter of the Yuan Mansion in Chongyang County. ”

Zhou Duyan was shocked, and he was already a figure who covered the sky in the place.

When Zhou Yiyan turned around, he said with a straight face: "The little lady is frightened." ”

The woman kneeling in the snow stood up and said, "Li Zheng doesn't have to be so polite, there is no Chongyang Yuan Mansion at the moment. ”

"There is no Chongyang Yuan family anymore?" Zhou Duyan was shocked.

I only heard the maid whimpering: "The chief doesn't know that Chongyang County has been attacked by thieves!" The whole county was ransacked, and the old man unfortunately died at the hands of thieves. ”

Speaking of this woman, the maid was even more sad and couldn't stop crying.

This time, even Li Chongjiu was surprised, and the thief in his heart was inevitably too powerful, and even the county seat was breached.

The villagers were also buzzing to each other, deeply feeling that this time the thieves were different from the past.

At that moment, a big man said to Zhou Duyan: "Captain, how is this good, even the county seat has been breached, then the next step is that the thieves can ransack the surrounding area, in case they come here, how can we be good?" ”

"What's the panic?" Zhou Duyan immediately shouted: "Isn't there still a court?" For such a big event as the thieves breaking through Chongyang County, the imperial court will definitely send troops to encircle and suppress it. ”

"But ......"

Seeing Zhou Duyan staring at him, everyone swallowed the words back into their stomachs. Li Chongjiu knew that everyone wanted to say in their hearts that at present, the imperial court was conquering Liaodong, where were there any surplus soldiers in the surrounding counties, even if a large army was sent to encircle and suppress it, it would be far from being able to solve the near fire for a while.

When Zhou Duyan said: "Li Da Niu, you immediately go up the mountain to report this matter to the abbot, just say that a gang of thieves has arrived at the bottom of the mountain, and there are still a lot of people, please prepare him early." ”

"And how to settle these two girls."

When Fang just came, all the young men's eyes were fixed on the face of this Miss Yuan family, and they couldn't take their eyes off it, when had they ever seen such a beauty.

Zhou Duyan swept his eyes as if he sensed everyone's intentions, and shouted at the moment: "When is it, it's still fighting, we killed the thieves, this gang will inevitably come to retaliate, everyone still has this thought." ”

When everyone heard this, they were shocked.

Next week, One-Eye will turn his attention to Li Chongjiu.

Li Chongjiu arched his hand and said: "Captain, it's me who didn't, I shot two thieves." ”

Zhou Duyan glared at Duyan and shouted: "You are a bastard, such a thief who bullies women, if you don't make a move, you are worthy of being called a person with eggs." ”

After listening to Zhou Duyan's words, all the villagers applauded.

For Li Chongjiu, Zhou Duyan also knows something, this young man, who was gentle and elegant, had dinner together again, and now he sees him shoot the thief and protect the safety of the village, and he is very good at the moment.

At this time, the woman surnamed Yuan, Ying Ying stepped forward and bowed to Li Chongjiu and said: "When I was in trouble, I was rescued by a strong man, I am not very grateful, please accept my worship." The grace of saving lives will be repaid. ”

Li Chongjiu smiled and said, "Don't mind. ”

At that moment, Li Chongjiu turned around and said to the inside: "Since there are thieves coming, please ask the captain to send more people to take more precautions." ”

Zhou Duyan couldn't help but nod after hearing this, and said, "Exactly, exactly." ”

The woman surnamed Yuan turned her head when she saw Li Chongjiu's words, and couldn't help but be surprised at the moment, her eyes narrowed slightly, as if she was surprised that the other party was not moved by herself.

At this moment, suddenly there was a whirring wind from the bottom of the mountain, as if a noisy sound was poured in.

A villager suddenly pointed his hand down the mountain and said, "It's not good, it's a thief!" ”

Li Chongjiu turned his head to look, and sure enough, dense torches were lit at the foot of the mountain, and in an instant, I don't know how many people were going up the mountain.

Zhou opened his eyes and screamed badly.

Li Chongjiu immediately said: "Don't be stunned, retreat to Shaolin Temple with us!" ”

As he spoke, the villagers began to spread out with a thud, and each of them rushed home to call his family.

Li Chongjiu saw it, and as soon as he turned over and jumped on the bandit's war horse, he went straight to the mountain.

And the woman surnamed Yuan shouted a few times, but Li Chongjiu didn't seem to hear it, and drove the horse straight into the mountain.

The woman surnamed Yuan was stunned when she saw that the other party ignored her. At this time, a few village men who coveted his beauty came to help, and the woman surnamed Yuan changed back to her pitiful look and hurriedly went up the mountain together.

There was chaos at the foot of the mountain.

At this moment, the Shaolin Temple on the mountain also learned the news, and the bell rang loudly.

Note 1: In the Northern Wei Dynasty, the township was five families and one neighbor, five neighbors and one li, and five li and one party, each with a neighborhood chief, a li chief, and a party chief.

In the Sui Dynasty, in the local prefectures and counties, there were five families for protection, one for the chief, one for the number of guarantees, one for the long, and then for the number of miles, for one party, and for the party chief.

The work of party chiefs and lieutenant chiefs is generally to check household registration, supervise farming, collect taxes on mu, and levy and issue conscription and military service.
