Chapter 57: The Little Master
Wang Changchang replied honestly: "That's right. After we entered the village, we entered more than a dozen yards one after another, but we saw neither food nor people, and we were wondering, when we suddenly heard a baby crying under the ground of a family's house. β
"We followed the sound and searched around the house, and when we found that the sound came from under a box, we removed it. As a result, there was a hole under the box, and when I went down to look for it, I found the baby and the rest of the family. β
"The seven brothers of the Xu family asked the family to tell us where the people in your village hid the grain, otherwise, they would fall to death and kill all of them."
"None of the others will say it, only the milk baby and the mother, regardless of the others' stopping, told us that the people in your village have made the grain into city brick cakes and built them into kangs, and they also pointed out to us the kang that their families used to build city brick cakes, so we all know about it."
"We-"
"So, in addition to hacking to death the four people guarding the entrance of our village, did the Xu family brothers hack to death the rest of our village?" Wang Changjiu talked too much, Xiao Qiongzhi didn't have time to listen to him talk too much, interrupted him, and asked the key points.
"Yes! They hacked the whole family of the baby I just talked about! Wang Changchang hurriedly replied.
"Why?" Xiao Qiongzhi was a little surprised.
After all, the baby's mother gave the secret of the city brick cake to the obedient confession.
"The mother of the milk baby looks a little beautiful, and when she is a milk baby, what is that, it is very big, one of the seven brothers of the Xu family has taken a fancy to her and wants to sleep with her."
"Her man couldn't stand it, so he rushed forward to beat that person and knocked that person to the ground, and the other six of the seven brothers of the Xu family hurriedly went up to help that person, and the other family members of her man hurriedly went up to help her man."
"We all know that the seven brothers of the Xu family are ruthless characters, they dare not speak out, they can only persuade on the side, but the seven brothers of the Xu family did not listen to persuasion, and while fighting, they took out knives and hacked the whole family of the milk baby to death."
"Dozens of us are clever-minded, and we know that this time things are getting bigger and bigger, and there is no way to be good at all, so we quickly turned around, and by the way, knocked down the city brick cakes in the homes of people along the road, and found a back basket to load, and carried it out of your village."
"I didn't expect that just after leaving the village, I ran into you and the big hero coming back." Wang Changchang said in the end, with a depressed face.
It seems that he needs food too much, even if he is arrested now and doesn't know if he can leave alive, he is still reluctant to lose the city brick cake he snatched so quickly.
Xiao Qiongzhi took the opportunity to clear his throat and said loudly to all the people present who were restrained by Zheng Bang's acupuncture points: "Don't be afraid, my uncle and I both know that you really haven't eaten yet, so you came to rob our Zhoujia Village." β
"As long as you don't kill the people of our Zhoujia Village, we will persuade the patriarch and clansmen of our village to forgive you."
"In addition, I know that there are three things, all of which are delicious grains like potatoes and sweet potatoes, and there are many of them in the mountains of each village, and it is not a problem for each family to get a few hundred catties."
"As long as you can swear that from now on, you will treat our Zhoujia Village people as brothers, and never come to steal food or betray us again, I am willing to teach you the way to recognize these three things and how to eat!"
"The emperor is above, and the earth is below, I swear! My king has long regarded the people of Zhoujia Village as brothers from now on, and will never come to rob grain or betray the people of Zhoujia Village, I am also willing to take the little fortune of Zhoujia Village as my master, and go to the soup for her, at any cost, if you violate this oath, the sky will hit five thunders, and you will never be able to live forever! Wang Changchang's eyes lit up and he took the lead in vowing.
After all, now that spring is gone, there are only two months, and if a family can get a few hundred catties of miscellaneous grains, it will not be a problem for everyone to survive this winter.
And when spring begins, there will be more things to eat, vegetables and wild vegetables alone will fill your stomach, and even if you don't have anything else to eat, at least you won't starve to death.
"I also swear that I, Wang Chang'an, will ...... from now on"
"I swear, I, Wang Changqing, will ...... from now on"
β¦β¦
Soon, everyone began to swear an oath.
They all studied from Wang for a long time, and in their oath, they specially expressed their willingness to treat Xiao Qiongzhi as their master, and they would not hesitate to go to the soup for her.
Including the seven brothers of the Xu family, they whispered, looked at Xiao Qiongzhi and Zheng Bang one after another, and began to swear in unison in a particularly loud voice: "Today is our brother's ghost puzzle, so we caused trouble." We swear that from now on, we'll allβ"
"Wait!" When Xiao Qiongzhi heard this, he interrupted them loudly.
"Little Fuxing, what do you command, our brother can serve?" Among the seven brothers of the Xu family, Xu Yixi, who had quarreled with Wang for a long time, immediately asked with a flattering face.
Xiao Qiongzhi said coldly: "Murder pays for life." You seven brothers, killed more than a dozen people in our Zhoujia Village, even if you swear by duplicity now, I will persuade the patriarch and the villagers of our village to end your lives, you better shut up! β
"You're a little one-" The other of the seven brothers of the Xu family, obviously enraged, was ready to scold Xiao Qiongzhi.
However, Zheng Bang quickly took action, clicked on his dumb hole, and easily lit the dumb holes of his other six brothers.
Wang Changjiu watched, felt relieved for Xiao Qiongzhi, and made a gesture at the seven brothers of the Xu family to wipe their necks.
It's an interesting old man.
made Xiao Qiongzhi laugh out loud.
Wang Changjiu heard the movement, turned around, and gave Xiao Qiongzhi a plan with a smile: "Little master, all the people in our village are forced to come to rob your village of food. β
"Look, now, can we let those of us who swore to atone for our crimes, return all the bricks and cakes we robbed, and at the same time, tell the rest of the village about the three miscellaneous grains you know, and persuade them to give up the robbery, and come to the entrance of the village and swear in public?"
"Yes!" Xiao Qiongzhi is planning to do so.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have wasted so much time just now, listening to him tell them what they had robbed, and at the same time, telling them what she knew about the three grains.
After all, there were nearly 1,000 people who entered the village to rob this time, and Zheng Bang alone would be too time-consuming if he went door-to-door to clean up others like Wang Changjiu and them.
She looked at the other people present except for the seven brothers of the Xu family, and asked loudly: "Which of you is willing to take the initiative to return all the city brick cakes you robbed, and at the same time, tell the rest of your village about the three miscellaneous grains I know, persuade them to give up the robbery, and come to the village entrance and swear in public to me and my uncle?" β
"Little master, I do!"
"Little master, I am also willing!"
"Little master, our brothers, all of us are willing!"
β¦β¦
Soon, everyone else said yes.
Xiao Qiongzhi was very satisfied, and asked Zheng Bang to unlock their acupuncture points and let them into the village.
