Chapter 271: It's good to know, hum

The wine party of the inn broke up unhappily, and everyone washed and slept.

Xia Qiu didn't feel sleepy, sitting outside the inn, looking at the stars in the sky and losing his mind.

Lu Tingxiu took a cloak and put it on her, "Lei Da is in charge of the family for a short time, and it is difficult to change the gangsterism, and you still do things according to the copycat, don't take it too seriously." ”

"It's not because of this, it's mainly because I'm afraid of food insecurity. If it were a normal time, I could have been able to get drunk with him. ”

"As far as I know, the bandits within dozens of miles along the way are still quite giving Lei Da a face."

"It's because it's too face-saving that they lose their vigilance." Xia Qiu told Lu Tingxiu about his worries, and said faintly uneasy: "The grain in Lin County is already rising, and even if the people have opinions, they are still within the scope of bearing. If it is rumored that the grain has been looted at this time, the grain merchants will inevitably raise prices aggressively, what do you think will be the consequences? ”

"What you said is not unreasonable, this matter really needs to be vigilant, but the temperament of the people in charge of the Yilei family, I am afraid that not only will they not listen to it, but they will have opinions about you in their hearts."

"If it were someone else, I wouldn't bother to pay attention to it." didn't treat them as outsiders, so they said heart-wrenching words.

"Okay, then I'll arrange it tonight, you go back and rest early."

Xia Qiu glanced at him, "Can you keep a night for them, and can you still do it for them day and night?" ”

"People, you have to fall to know that it hurts."

Xia Qiu didn't feel sleepy, and he didn't bother to go back to the inn. Lu Tingxiu took her to the grass not far away, lying on her back on the ground and quietly looking at the stars in the sky.

"Look at the Big Dipper over there, it's bright tonight."

"Where?" In summer and autumn, I only saw stars in the night sky, and I couldn't tell the difference at all.

Lu Tingxiu pulled her finger and pointed at the night sky, "Those seven stars are called the Big Dipper when they are connected." ”

When Xia Qiu saw it clearly, he sighed, "Isn't that the handle of scooping wine?" ”

Lu Tingxiu smiled, "...... You're not wrong to say that. ”

Rare and free, Lu Tingxiu taught her to identify the stars in the sky, Xia Qiu thought it was quite interesting, and he pillowed his arm and admired the bright night sky.

The moon is bright and the stars are scarce, and there are many fireflies flying on the grass. Lu Tingxiu grabbed some and put them in Supa, then tied them with tough grass and handed them to Xia Qiu, "Xia Chubby, I don't seem to have given you a gift." ”

It's good to know, huh!

The gloom in Xia Qiu's heart was swept away, and he fell asleep in his arms with a firefly bag.

Afraid that she would be frightened, Lu Tingxiu put on his cloak and lay down quietly next to her.

The inn was blinded by the black lights, and the people in charge of Lei Da gradually fell asleep, and the people who stayed by the grain truck were even more snoring, and how soundly they slept soundly.

Lu Tingxiu guarded Xia Qiu and closed his eyes unconsciously.

In a daze, Xia Qiu's body suddenly moved, and Lu Tingxiu, who was awakened, opened his eyes vigilantly.

Xia Qiu sat up from the grass and looked around grimly.

"What's wrong?" Lu Tingxiu asked.

"Someone." Summer and autumn go back.

She shouldn't be thinking about it day and dreaming at night, right?

Lu Tingxiu asked himself if his martial arts skills were good, but he didn't hear any sound at all. But her hearing has always been very accurate, maybe someone is really eyeing this batch of food?

He took Xia Qiu and sneaked to the stable not far from the grain.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a rush of footsteps to come. There are more than a dozen people who listen to the voice, their steps are brisk, their movements are light, and their skills are not bad.

There are more than 70 people in charge of Lei Da's dart, although they are bandits, but they are uneven, since the good queen lives by walking darts, under the advice of Lord Lu, he also specially invited a martial artist to guide his subordinates, and it has been quite effective in a few months, and it is no longer the rabble before.

A dozen people against dozens of people, it is unlikely that they will fight hard, and even if they win, they will not be able to take much food with them.

The only possibility is to use despicable means.

Lu Tingxiu didn't rush to wake up the dart master, but used them as bait. He handed Xia Qiu a knife and advised, "Without my order, you hide here and don't come out." ”

Xia Qiu nodded, holding the knife tightly in his hand.

A group of black-clothed men armed with swords soon came to the inn.

They were quite cautious, and did not rush to kill people and grab food, but made sure that there were no ambushes and guards around, and then they went their separate ways.

There was a lot of food in this batch, and they scattered around and set it on fire, and even planned to light it with the inn.

The torches were lit, and as soon as the people rushed to the grain truck, the sound of arrows breaking through the air was heard, and the man in black who was hit by the arrow screamed on the spot.

Wei Ge stood condescendingly on the roof of the house, and the arrows continued to fire. His archery skills are superb, and he has directly hit hundreds of shots, and several people have been hit by arrows in the blink of an eye.

Lu Tingxiu was not idle, and jumped out to fight with the man in black.

The night was dissolved by the summer and autumn, and the dart masters didn't drink much, and they woke up immediately after being awakened by the fight, which was a robber. Without saying a word, just draw the knife and start drying.

Wei Ge collected the arrows, flew and landed in front of the inn, and directly sent the black-clothed man who wanted to burn the inn to meet their grandmother.

Lei Da and the others didn't even bother to put on their coats, and rushed out of the inn directly with knives, "Brothers, kill Lao Tzu!" ”

There are many people, and the man in black will soon make dumplings. In addition to the two who escaped, one was picked up by Xia Qiu, and the rest all died.

The one who picked up the leak was directly beaten away by Lu Tingxiu, and when he saw that the situation was not good, he wanted to rob the horse and escape, but Xia Qiu came to a surprise attack, and directly kicked the fly and then put the knife on his neck.

Lei Da Boss rushed over and shouted angrily: "Tell me quickly, who sent someone." If you don't say it, Lao Tzu will dismantle you. ”

Surrounded by heavily, the man in black had no hope of escaping, so he directly bit the poison hidden in his mouth and died with a whimper.

Such a ruthless method is clearly professionally trained, not an ordinary bandit and horse bandit. And judging by their direct arson, they just wanted to destroy this batch of grain.

It seems that Xia Qiu's worries have come true. Without this batch of grain, it would not make the people hungry, but it was enough to cause panic, cause public opinion pressure on the government, and trigger another round of price increases.

What a good idea!

There were no deaths, but a few were slightly injured, and a little bandaging was sufficient. In addition, several grain trucks caught fire, and the losses were not significant due to the timely extinguishing of the fire.

"Lord Lu, Xia Dongjia, I really don't have the face to see the two." Lei Da was embarrassed, and he wanted to dig a hole in the ground and drill down, "If it weren't for you tonight, not to mention that the grain was burned, even my people wouldn't know how many people would die." The great kindness of the two of you, I Lei will never forget it in this life. ”

He is a rough man who can't say pretty words, so he patted his chest directly, "In the future, wherever I am useful, just open my mouth." ”

Xia Qiu smiled and said nothing, and Lu Tingxiu said a few polite words to him.

Lei Da announced in public, "Brothers, I said ugly things ahead today, as long as we go out on a mission in the future, no matter how hard and tired we are, if the grain does not reach the hands of the grain merchants, we will never be allowed to touch a drop of wine." Anyone who dares to disobey will be expelled from the food team. Let's drink, just wait for the task to be completed, and then have a good drink, okay? ”

Everyone's fate hangs by a thread tonight, and the neck stalk is cold, how can there be anyone who doesn't agree.
