Chapter 236: The Bandits Enter the Village
The Liu brothers set off early the next morning, and Bai Ling prepared enough silver taels and necessary medicines for them to ensure the safety of the two of them to the greatest extent.
The farmers are busy farming, and the victims who have signed a long-term labor contract with the Bai family are also busy tidying up the back mountain.
Remembering the green belt planted to protect the environment in his previous life, Bai Ling instructed the chief worker to dig up the small saplings in the mountain by roots, and plant five rows of saplings on both sides while building the road.
Although the work has increased, it also means that the income has increased, and the people who come to work cannot ask for it.
Two days later, Bai Ling got accurate news, and there were indeed many people coming from the north recently, who seemed to be victims of the disaster, but they were secretly in contact.
And these people are all good at fists and feet, but I don't know what their purpose is for the time being.
Bai Ling ordered people to pay more attention, and explained that the family must bring more people when they go out, and check whether the self-defense items are all brought every day, and it is best not to go out.
The family's finances, etc., are not easy to carry with you, and the large items are also placed in the cellar or secret passage.
"Girl, get up, there's a signal from the village!" At midnight, Bai Shaodong clasped on Bai Ling's door, and Bai Ling hurriedly came out of the space.
The things in the Bailing House, the valuable ones are all placed in the space, and they only look like they carry a small baggage, which contains a few changes of clothes.
"The old lady and the old man, they are all informed?" After Bai Ling hurriedly went out, he walked towards the side of the hall.
"I've been informed, this meeting should also go to the hall." Bai Shao couldn't hide her fear, but she still replied.
"Let people send a letter to the long-term workers, and ask the men to escort the old and the weak and the women to the mountains, and try not to bring anything as much as possible, and be careful to avoid traps." Bai Ling commanded in a deep voice.
"Yes." Bai Shao paused for a moment and immediately ran to the front yard.
After Bai Ling came to the hall, he only saw the white apricots and catkins that were carried over, and the two little girls turned pale, which showed that they were very scared.
"Do you remember how the second sister taught you how to use the Hidden Arrow?" Bai Ling came to the two little girls and asked in a low voice.
"yes, yes." Bai Xing patted the small bag on her waist and said, "The medicinal powder prepared by the second sister is also with you." ”
Liu Wu nodded and didn't speak, and his little hands clutched his waist bag tightly.
"Well, if you're in danger, you have to use these things. The second sister will arrange for the nursing home to take you, don't be afraid if you get separated from your family, the second sister will definitely find you. Rubbing the top of the two little girls' heads, Bai Ling soothed.
"Hmm." The two little girls nodded, their little hands clenched, and said that it was fake not to be afraid, but they were both sensible and did not say it.
Bai Sanshu and his family supported the two elders of the Liu family, followed by the sisters of the Bai family, and the mothers of the Liu family.
Seeing that everyone was carrying a big burden, Bai Ling hurriedly said: "You pick out some of the things in the baggage, and only take a change of clothes and important items." If you really have to take refuge in the mountains, it's hard to walk with these things. ”
"But these are all new ......," Mrs. Liu said reluctantly.
"Grandma, our family is not short of this bit of silver. Besides, we have a lot of things to hide, so let's do it when we don't have them. There is only one life, and it is more important than silver. Bai Ling persuaded him.
"Listen to Bai Ling." When Liu Zhenyou heard this, he strode over to the warm kang, opened his baggage, and took things out as much as he could.
Seeing this, others also followed Liu Zhenyou's example and reduced their burdens as much as possible.
Bai Wei's burden is the largest, and there are the most small objects in it, and she is reluctant to throw any of them.
Seeing this, Bai Ling walked over directly to help her choose two sets of change of clothes, picked up a few pieces of valuable jewelry, and threw the rest on the kang.
"Don't tell me it's reluctant, your silver ticket is worth more than that. If you really have to go, the second sister will double up for you when you go back. Afraid that Bai Wei would secretly hide something on her body, Bai Ling spoke.
"That's what the second sister said." Bai Wei hurriedly answered.
"Most of your valuable items were given by your second sister, can you still deceive you?" Bai Liushi glanced at Bai Wei helplessly, then looked out of the door, and said worriedly: "I don't know what the situation is outside, I'm really anxious." ”
"Mother, don't be afraid, our family has so many layers of protection, even if the army comes, there is time to evacuate. Maybe it's just a false alarm today, and we'll take it as a drill. Bai Ling said softly, but his heart was not so steady.
The Bai family is safe, but the situation in the village is unknown.
In the past two years, she has had a lot of contact with the villagers, most of them are kind, have a good relationship with Sanfang, and have maintained Bai Ling like that, she doesn't want anyone to have an accident.
"Dad, if you're worried over there, I'll accompany you into the village to have a look?" Finding Bai Sanshu rubbing his hands, Bai Ling asked.
"No way!" Without waiting for Bai Sanshu to speak, Bai Liu's face changed greatly, "The village chief already knows Xin'er, if something really happens, he will take people to run to our side, you two can't go, in case there are three long and two short, let our family live!" ”
When Bai Sanshu heard this, he could only sit back again.
Compared with the people in the old house, it is naturally more important to have a wife and children.
But no matter how good the people in the old house are, Bai Sanshu will inevitably have to worry about the safety of Mrs. Bai, after all, she is her mother.
Seeing this, Bai Ling stopped talking, and silently endured the eye knives of Bai Liu and Bai Wei.
After a while, Bai Shao came in to report that the long-term workers had already moved to the back mountain, and the embroidery girls had also temporarily entered the secret passage.
After another stick of incense, I went to the nursing home in the village to find out the news and came back to report the news.
"Oh no, a lot of people died in the village, those people killed people when they saw them, they set fire to them after grabbing things, and tied up the girls in the village and didn't know what to do!" The nurse gasped.
"What!" Bai Sanshu and Liu Zhenyou stood up, unable to believe what they had heard.
"Are there any villagers fleeing to us?" Bai Ling asked.
The nurse shook his head and said with red eyes: "Those bandits have killed too many people, many villagers are too scared to run away, the village chief organized people to break through, and a few brothers from us who went to explore the news are also helping, let me come back and send a letter to the masters to see if I can save people." ”
"Why are you still stunned, hurry up and call for people, let's go into the village to save people!" Bai Sanshu stood up abruptly and walked out, but was dragged by Bai Liu and Bai Ling.
"Daughter-in-law, no matter what you say, it's also my mother, and the brothers in the clan!" Bai Sanshu roared.
"What are you shouting at me, I just want you to be careful, our family is waiting for you to come back, don't have an accident, do you hear it!" Bai Liu's shouting was louder, but it was with a trill.
Bai Sanshu nodded heavily, and was about to go out, Bai Ling hurriedly sprinkled a packet of medicine on him, and took another antidote and stuffed it into Bai Sanshu's mouth.
"Dad, this medicine is very strong, you take off your coat and throw it in the middle of the bandits, remember to light it so that the effect of the medicine can be exerted."
Bai Lingsai gave Bai Sanshu a fire fold, and ordered to the nursing home:
"Try to protect the villagers, but my father's life and your own life are more important, I hope you all come back alive!"
"Yes, girl!" The nurse responded, and immediately followed Bai Sanshu and left.
Bai Ling clenched his fists, turned to look at his family members who were wiping his tears, and said loudly: "Now is not the time to cry, hurry up and go to the backyard and go to the back mountain with the embroidery girls!" Grandpa, our family is all over to you. ”
