Chapter 9: It's Late, It's Over
"Commander Sheep?" Wan Tang was puzzled.
"It's the old name for the sheep traders."
"So what?" Wan Tang continued to ask.
That's what he asked, but his expression was really funny, because what he was thinking in his heart was: I am also a farmer, why am I a "commander", but I am just a "squire"?
The sixth master stood up and said with a solemn expression: "In the past, sheep dealers sold sheep, but now, the sheep commander sells two-legged sheep. They are in fact commonly known as human traffickers. ”
Traffickers? Two-legged sheep? Wan Tang's expression became serious.
Regarding the origin of the "two-legged sheep", Wan Tang, who used to be a senior netizen, is no stranger to this name, in ancient wars, or serious famines, there will be a phenomenon of cannibalism, in order to beautify this situation, it may be just to reduce the guilt of the cannibals, those cannibals will be eaten by the people called "two-legged sheep".
However, doesn't it mean that the humans in the land occupied by the orcs, although they are slaves, are not to the point of starvation? Why do you need to eat people now?
Xu saw Wan Tang's thoughts, and the sixth master explained: "The sheep commanders caught two feet of sheep not for food!" It was sold to orcs or wealthy people to be used as labor for urban expansion and construction. ”
Wan Tang rolled his eyes: "You can't finish the words all at once?!" Also, how can you be so sure that the other person is not a hunter? ”
"You're such a pig-brain! Our Dongfang Village is almost in the center of the hinterland of this deep mountain and old forest, and the nearest populated place outside is at least fifty or sixty miles away! Who would come here for hunting? When did we see traces of outsiders again? It's impossible to get lost! What hunter can't tell the way? What's more, according to what you said, the other party looks neatly dressed and well-equipped, even if the electronics are now... What, GPS doesn't work, but there will always be a compass, and, do you think those fake suns in the sky are decorations? Even you know that if you use them to see directions, others will get lost? I think your brain is still fascinated! ”
After saying this, the sixth master's mouth was dry, and he hurriedly beckoned the stone to pour a glass of water, and after taking a big sip, he continued: "As for whether they are Commander Yang or not, although this is just my guess, judging from the content of their chat with you, they have obvious intentions to listen to the truth, so it can be basically judged that even if they are not Commander Yang, at least it is certain that they are people with bad intentions." ”
Wan Tang listened silently and didn't say a word.
The sixth master glanced at Wan Tang and suddenly laughed: "I don't know what happened to your kid before, it's not enough to be stupid for more than ten years, and you're still confused." ”
Wan Tang didn't dwell too much on this issue, anyway, the matter had passed, and it was useless to keep dwelling on it, and now he just wanted to know how to make up for it.
"What should we do next? Just waiting? ”
The sixth master glared and said: "From the time you met until now, three or four hours have passed, if the other party is really Commander Yang, then they must be ready to catch us on the road at this time, let's wait for a fart!" Of course, hurry up and gather everyone, hide first to see the situation, and then be ready to run away at any time! ”
"Runaway?"
"It's to evacuate, to run away with your family, and to leave here without looking back!" The sixth master said angrily, and after speaking, he looked out the door, there was a small vegetable garden, in which some potatoes and sweet potatoes were planted, if nothing else, there would be a harvest next month.
"Hopefully it's still too late." The sixth master whispered.
However, before he finished speaking, he saw in the distance, above the forest about two thousand meters away, a white smoke slowly rising!
Everyone in the village knows that someone has touched the cordon set up by the sixth master outside!
The sixth master muttered two words, his expression did not change, but his eyes suddenly became old, like the afterglow of the setting sun.
......
At this moment, it was close to noon, and the people of Dongfang Village were all waiting for lunch in the village, but when they saw the white smoke rising in the distance, they all gathered after a while.
"Is there an outsider coming?" A voice from the crowd asked.
"What are you afraid of, I'm just at the cordon now, and I may not be able to find our village when I come." Others replied.
"Hey, it's not necessarily someone coming, maybe it's a false alarm..."
"Impossible, I've seen the arrangement of the sixth master, and that trap is specially set up for human beings."
"So it's true that a bad guy is coming?"
"You guys, it's just that your heart is too dark, even if outsiders come, you can't say that people are bad people! To be a man, you must be generous and have good thoughts..."Another old-fashioned voice began to rely on the old and sell the old, but before he finished speaking, he was slapped in the face by the sixth master's reply.
"It's the bad guys!"
All at once the crowd began to get noisy.
"What bad guy?"
"Are the orcs coming?"
"Huh? The orcs are coming? How did you find here?! ”
"Run! The orcs are coming! ”
......
The sixth master had a dark face, and hurriedly waved his hand to stop everyone, and said loudly: "What are you yelling!" Before the person arrived, he scared himself to death first? Let's count them first, see if everything is ready, clean up immediately, and run with me to the back mountain, I found a cave there before, it is difficult to be found, let's hide first. ”
The sixth master beckoned the stone over, leaned close to his ear and whispered, "What about Wan Tang?" Go tell him and ask him to pack up some magazines from under my bed, and take them with us. ”
Shi Shi's face was embarrassed: "Six... Six... Six... Lord, Don... Brother Tang, let's go. ”
"Huh? Where are you going? The sixth master wondered.
The stone pointed to the white smoke.
The sixth master suddenly understood, and stomped his foot: "He wants to stop the enemy?" What do you want to do with this stinky boy?! ”
......
At the same time, the "stinky boy" Wan Tang was walking unhurriedly in the forest, with relaxed steps and frivolous demeanor.
When the sixth master said those two words, Wan Tang didn't hear whether he was finished or late, but at that moment, Wan Tang had already made a decision to go alone to stop these "ill-intentioned" guys.
In this way, if the sixth master said "it's late", then Wantang can make the time for the transfer of Dongfang Village more abundant, so that it is no longer too late.
And if the sixth master said "finished", then Wan Tang believes that with his own strength, he should be able to delay the other party for a while, so that the word "finish" is slightly closer to the word "late", because, "late" at least means that there is a hint of opportunity.
As for Wan Tang himself, life and death have long been things that he threw to the sky.
Looking up at the white smoke of the warning signal, Wan Tang estimated that he might be about to encounter the enemy, so he put away his posture, lowered his body, and silently sneaked.
