Xu Shaoan turned around and saw Lin Xiaoyu coming out of his room in a strong suit, still holding a long sword in his hand, obviously wanting to go out to fight. Without waiting for Xu Shao'an to speak, Wang Kunjun and Zhang Weixin spoke almost at the same time to persuade: "There are enough people outside, and there is no need for the eighteenth sister to charge into battle." ”

Lin Xiaoyu didn't seem to think much of the dissuasion of the two elder brothers, and said: "I heard what you just said, and there are only fifty people who can be mobilized on our side, and there are more than 100 people on the other side, and one more of me can have one more liliang." ”

Zhang Weixin continued to persuade: "Although there are few people on our side, we can be equipped with a large number of firearms, and with the help of those modern weapons, it is no problem to deal with these little thieves." Besides, even if there is really a shortage of manpower, it should be me and the fifth brother who are holding the sword, how can I let the eighteenth sister and you a woman rush to the front. ”

Hearing Zhang Weixin talk about gender, Lin Xiaoyu was a little unhappy, and said, "Seventh brother, what you said is unreasonable. What's wrong with women, do women have to be worse than men? It's not that I'm talking big, it's about martial arts, I'm afraid that among our senior brothers, there are not one or two who are not as good as mine. ”

Lin Xiaoyu's words choked Zhang Weixin, because what she said was indeed the truth, among these brothers who worshiped the old fairy of Fuyaozi as their teacher, there were indeed a few of them who, for various reasons, usually had less time to practice martial arts, and they were inferior to Lin Xiaoyu in martial arts.

Seeing that Zhang Weixin was speechless by Lin Xiaoyu's choking, Xu Shaoan was about to persuade Lin Xiaoyu again, but he was shocked by the other party's eye dart, and his mouth opened twice, and he didn't dare to speak in the end. Although the two of them are no longer lovers at this time, because Xu Shaoan always feels that he is sorry for Lin Xiaoyu, he gets along with Lin Xiaoyu after the breakup, but he is not as confident as before the breakup.

Seeing that the two sides seem to have a stalemate, but now that the outside situation urgently needs someone here to preside, Wang Kunjun has the intention to suppress Lin Xiaoyu as a brother, but he feels that this is not appropriate. Just when he was thinking about how to dissuade this eighteenth sister, the door on the other side also opened, and Zhang Xiaofei's personal maid Huan Lanxiang ran out of it with a panicked look, and said to Lin Xiaoyu: "Eighteen grandma, my wife will let you in." ”

Lin Xiaoyu saw that her expression was different, and hurriedly asked, "What did the fifth sister-in-law call me?" ”

Lan Xiang said: "Madam, she may have been frightened, and suddenly felt uncomfortable in her stomach, and she was afraid that something was wrong with the fetus, so she asked you to go in and have a look." ”

As soon as Lin Xiaoyu heard that Zhang Xiaofei was in poor health, he didn't care about worrying about Wang Kunjun and the others, so he turned around and followed Lan Xiang into the inner room. At the same time, Wang Kunjun was also taken aback, and hurriedly followed.

When I entered the bedroom, I saw Zhang Xiaofei lying on the bed, holding her stomach with her hands and calling there. When I first saw this scene, I was frightened by Wang Kunjun. He didn't say a word, he jumped onto the bed with a "rub", grabbed Zhang Xiaofei's hand, and asked, "Wife, what's wrong with you, wasn't it okay just now?" Why does this suddenly have a stomachache? ”

After speaking, he looked at his wife with an anxious face, and found that although Zhang Xiaofei screamed very evilly, the expression on her face did not look uncomfortable at all. Just when he was puzzled, he saw Zhang Xiaofei winking at him when Lin Xiaoyu returned to his bedroom to get a stethoscope and a blood pressure monitor.

Although Zhang Xiaofei didn't speak because she wanted to continue calling, her expression and movements already showed that she was pretending. It seems that she heard that Lin Xiaoyu insisted on going out to kill the enemy, worried about her safety, and wanted to stop her through this method and prevent her from going. Because as Lin Xiaoyu's good sister, she knows very well what Lin Xiaoyu is doing this for.

Since breaking up with Xu Shao'an, in order to avoid embarrassment when the two sides meet, Lin Xiaoyu has been living in "Qingyuan" in the name of taking care of Wang Kunjun's two pregnant wives - and later added a reason to learn Chinese medicine from Doctor Xue - and basically never returned to "Jingyuan". As a result, she will no longer be able to provide medical services to the brothers of "Jingyuan". Although the brothers are in good health and basically have not had any illnesses, and she, a doctor, is a dispensable position in "Jingyuan", but after a long time, there are still some whispers that come out, thinking that she is evading responsibility. In particular, at the plenary meeting a few days ago, she was once again appointed by the committee as the head of the infirmary, and some brothers talked more about it, and some people even said that she got this position by relying on her leadership. In this regard, Lin Xiaoyu can't say anything, and always wants to prove himself through some kind of opportunity, proving that he is by no means an idle eater. Because of this, there is an invasion of foreign enemies at this time, and she is naturally unwilling to let it go. ,

Although Zhang Xiaofei understands Lin Xiaoyu's difficulties very well, she is really not at ease to let her good sister risk her life to prove herself. That's why she came up with such a trick of fake stomach ache when the brothers couldn't persuade her, so that she could divert Lin Xiaoyu's attention, so that Xu Shaoan and others could deal with foreign enemies in a down-to-earth manner.

Knowing that his wife was pretending, Wang Kunjun's heart rested in his stomach. Taking advantage of the fact that Lin Xiaoyu had not yet returned, he hurriedly asked Mei Xiang to quietly deliver a message to Zhang Weixin and Xu Shaoan, telling them that Zhang Xiaofei was pretending, and told them not to delay here any longer, and to act according to Jihua immediately, and the most important thing is to repel the foreign enemy.

Zhang and Xu got the news, and while admiring that the eldest sister-in-law still had a way, they hurriedly left the room while Lin Xiaoyu was not paying attention and went to arrange the next move.

When Xu Shao'an and Zhang Weixin organized the brothers who knew martial arts among the traversers and the domestic servants in the house, and sent two teams of men and horses to reinforce the powder magazine and the surrounding people according to Jihua, the attack of the bandits and robbers outside had also stopped. Under the blows of flintlock pistols and modern weapons, these bandits suffered heavy losses, and in a short time they had already been defeated by dozens of them.

However, to Xu Shaoan's surprise, these bandits and robbers were not just a group of rabble as he imagined. Although they were met head-on, the rest of the people did not flee in all directions, but saw that the situation was not good, and quickly retreated in the same direction, and the direction of their retreat was the powder magazine not far away. It can be seen that these bandits and robbers will never give up if they don't grab something tonight. It's a pity that they chose the wrong object today, and in the face of a tough opponent like Liliang as the crossing team, their fate was already doomed when they launched an attack on "Jingyuan".

After attacking the "Jingyuan" and being severely attacked, although this group of bandits and robbers were terrified by all kinds of firearms, they knew that they would not be able to survive if they went back, so it was better to change their targets and fight again. So, according to the original agreement, he quickly rushed to the second target he had selected before with the leader of the team.

The leader who ran at the front kept turning back and urging his brothers to follow, while silently praying that the people in the mansion would not chase him out. At this time, the leader's heart was full of remorse, and he complained vigorously that he didn't listen to his second brother, and he had to choose this house to do it. Before leaving, his second brother persuaded himself more than once, not just thinking that this mansion is big and there are many things that can be grabbed, but ignoring the truth that the more such a mansion, the stronger its defense will be.

Moreover, the brother who was in charge of "stepping on the plate" before also reported that the people in this area were very in awe of the people in this house, and even the common people said that the owner of this house used to be a Taoist priest and knew many extremely powerful spells. But he didn't listen to it at all, but blamed his second brother for being cowardly and afraid, and reprimanded the brother who "stepped on the plate", scolding him for being a fallacy to confuse the public.

As a result, it turned out that the judgment of the second brother and the statement of the spy were correct. The people in this house are indeed powerful, and their methods of killing people are indeed very evil. Many of the brothers fell to their deaths suddenly, with no sign of arrows except for a few bloody holes. Even more terrifying was the fact that the bodies of some of the brothers, including his second brother, were mutilated as if they had been ripped by wild beasts.

But no matter how horrible the scene was, he couldn't just run back into the mountains with the rest of his brothers. Because there are still many people waiting to eat on the mountain, if he can't go back with his things this time, I'm afraid that more people will freeze to death and starve to death. So, no matter how much fear he had in his heart, he had to stay the course.

So, with no hope of attacking the mansion, he immediately changed his goal and rushed to the five-room mansion with the rest of his brothers, hoping to make a fortune from there. If he couldn't take the house, he would have to give up his bottom line and take his brothers to rob the many poor people around.

The distance between the "Jingyuan" and the temporary powder magazine was not far, but it was only three or four hundred meters, and the group of bandits and robbers were running wildly all the way, so they soon approached the powder magazine. During this period, the bandit leader vaguely heard a "boom" sound, but he was highly focused on the house in front of him, and he didn't care about this movement, and still took the lead in running at the front of the team. ,

Seeing that it was not far from the other mansion, the bandit leader could already faintly see the outline of this mansion. With the lesson just now, he hurriedly asked his brothers to slow down, lower their bodies, and quietly touch the house without making any sound as much as possible.

When they were only forty or fifty paces away from the house, the bandit leader suddenly had a premonition that someone was watching him not far ahead. It was a chill for him, as he had felt before the assault on the mansion, and then his brothers had been mercilessly slaughtered. Therefore, after having a premonition, a sense of fear also followed, and almost instantly made the bandit leader cold, and he subconsciously looked up and looked ahead.

In the darkness, he could faintly see that there seemed to be a small house in front of him, a very low little house. Just as he wondered who would build such a small house here, a dazzling light suddenly shot out from the top of the small house, shining on his face, like the summer sun, so that he could not see anything, and at the same time instinctively reached out to block his eyes. It's just that the light is so bright that even if he blocks it with his hand, he still can't see anything but the light.

However, although he couldn't figure out where the light came from, instinct told him that behind the light was definitely something he didn't want to see. So he hurriedly turned around and shouted to his brothers, "Brothers, run!" ”

The bandits and robbers who followed him were also stunned by the sudden light, and after hearing the leader's shout, most of the others still stood in place at a loss, except for a few who were more astute and knew that things were wrong again, and turned and ran away.

Seeing that most of the brothers did not react, the bandit leader was so anxious that he waved his hand in the direction of the west and shouted, "Hurry up......"

The bandit leader shouted a quick word, and before he could put down his hand in the air, he heard "Bang!" from behind him. Then I felt a slam in the back of my heart, as if I had smashed a sledgehammer on me, and a hot thing drilled into the back of my heart, and then out of my chest. One of the brothers standing in front of him was shaken, and then he looked at the leader in confusion, and then at his chest. In the dazzling light, the bandit leader could clearly see that the clothes on the chest of the brother opposite him were rapidly turning red, and it was obvious that a large amount of blood was gushing out.

The thief raised his head again, and pointed to his leader's chest, his mouth opened as if to speak, but he could not utter a word, and fell straight on his back to the snow, twitching twice before moving.

Seeing this, the bandit leader subconsciously looked down at his chest, and found that his chest, like that brother, had been stained red with blood. At the same time, he also felt that his liliang seemed to be disappearing, and the arm that was originally raised up hung down weakly. He turned slowly, and found that the bright light seemed to be fading and fading, and his eyes were again in an endless darkness. The moment before he fell to the ground, "Bang!" rang in his ears again. Bang! Bang! Voice.

As the gunfire rang out again, the few bandits and robbers who had just understood how fast and fast they were running fell to the ground one after another. The bandits and robbers who were stunned in place were even more frightened at this time, the leader was dead, and the brothers who fled were also dead.

At this time, a shouting voice was heard from behind the light: "All the people listen, immediately put down their weapons, and kneel on the ground with their heads in their hands, otherwise they will be killed." ”

At the same time, behind the bandits, footsteps were heard, and the same request was announced to them. The bandits, who knew that they had no way out, had no choice but to throw away their weapons and fall to their knees with their heads in their hands, waiting for this terrible opponent to decide their fate.
