Chapter 7: Joining the Faction
More than ten meters away, dozens of horse thieves lurked on the shore, and they held Hanyang-made rifles in their hands and fired at the wooden boat where Zhong Wenbin was, and the fire was very fierce.
The leader is the big gold tooth, this guy is really haunted, Zhong Wenbin hurriedly pressed Liu Youlan on the board, although he knew that she almost had the ability to regenerate, but the feeling of being shot was very uncomfortable.
"Hu Er, was it your kid who brought you here?" Zhong Wenbin aired.
", it's my business." Hu Er scolded his mother, then was stunned for a moment, and replied: "It's the second master, it must be him!" ”
In these years, the leader of the horse thieves and the bandits colluded together, but whenever they were angered, a horse mountain order would be issued everywhere, which was equivalent to an official wanted warrant, and Liu Xiangbao happened to be on this list.
Zhong Wenbin was also speechless: "Then we have been shot?" ”
Hu Er touched his head in embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I'm also a member of the list on Ma Shanling." ”
Sure enough, this guy is not reliable, in addition to being treacherous, he is still a "wanted criminal", Zhong Wenbin couldn't help but get angry, and now he should escape from here first, the wooden boat is not strong, and it is in danger of sinking at any time.
On the shore, the big gold tooth led a group of horse thieves very rampantly, and the bullets were beaten as if they didn't need money, and finally they were almost beaten, and then with a wave of their hands, the guns stopped.
The big golden tooth took two steps forward and opened his voice: "Second stunned, where is your master?" ”
Hu Er poked his head out in fright, and after making sure that he was not a live target, he stood up, and his whole body shook: "Three masters, didn't I give you ten oceans?" ”
The big golden tooth laughed: "Ten oceans, let's call it Hanako!" ”
Hu Er was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but there was no way at all, Zhong Wenbin didn't want to see this guy, he just wanted to run for his life at this time, and took Liu Youlan with him.
The wooden boat has already been punched out of countless big holes, and the bottom of the boat is slowly sinking, if you want to drive away, don't expect it, Zhong Wenbin looked around, and the only chance at the moment is to jump into the big river.
So as soon as he told the two of them about the plan, Liu Youlan suddenly looked frightened: "I'm not leaving, you can go!" ”
When Hu Er heard this, he was immediately unhappy: "Eldest sister, when will you be able to do it?" ”
But Zhong Wenbin heard the meaning of these words, and when he saw Liu Youlan's face gloomy, he smiled bitterly: "You don't want to go back to the water, do you?" ”
Liu Youlan nodded silently, Zhong Wenbin could also guess that when a person has been in the water for fifteen years, in the dark, that kind of fear and loneliness is something that no one can experience, and naturally there is a feeling of resistance.
But if you don't leave now, Zhong Wenbin and the others will definitely fall into the hands of the big golden tooth, and I'm afraid they will really die at that time.
Zhong Wenbin saw that he couldn't escape, so he simply got ruthless, took a piece of wood from the wooden boat, and then threw it towards the big gold tooth, but he didn't expect this move to annoy him again, and the bullets hit him intensively.
Hu Er immediately scolded: "Little brother, what are you doing?" ”
Zhong Wenbin replied: "I can't get used to his face." ”
Hu Er's face darkened, these horse thieves are not dumbfounded for killing, there is no official government to suppress them these years, and these ordinary people only survive by paying some protection money on weekdays.
Where is this place, Zhong Wenbin doesn't know, he is used to wandering, how can he remember these names.
But the three of them can't sit still, the wooden boat has sunk halfway, the river rushed up to the plank, Liu Youlan was frightened to climb up, she was not afraid of thunder and lightning, not afraid of knives and guns, but only very sensitive to water.
Zhong Wenbin was also anxious and asked Hu Er if there was a way.
Hu Er was sweating and lay on the boat: "There is a village five miles away, I know some people, we can go there." ”
Five miles is also quite far away, Zhong Wenbin considered that he had to break out of the encirclement to escape, so he said to Liu Youlan: "Why don't you protect the fat man and escape." ”
Liu Youlan nodded very dryly, and immediately, Zhong Wenbin dived into the water without saying a word, and then dived into the distance, the bullet hit the water, and almost hit it several times.
After finally getting out of the distance, Zhong Wenbin saw Liu Youlan blocking in front of Hu Er, and then jumped to the opposite side, entangled several times, killed two horse thieves, grabbed two guns and rushed over here.
After the three met, Zhong Wenbin found that Liu Youlan had bullet holes on her body, but looking at her calm appearance, nothing happened.
"Fatty, lead the way!" Zhong Wenbin looked at the horse thief behind him.
Hu Er immediately led the two of them into the dense forest on the side, and the horse thief followed closely and chased for more than half an hour, and finally arrived at a ravine, where there was a stockade.
The stockade was not large, but it was guarded by men, and when the three of them arrived, before they could enter, a man from the guard rushed out and pointed a gun at them.
"Stop!"
Zhong Wenbin immediately stood in place, Hu Er hurriedly rushed up, bowed his head and whispered, the guard immediately rushed into the village, and after a while, an old man with white hair led a dozen people out.
As soon as he saw Hu Er, the old man immediately laughed: "Dead fatty, what's so good?" ”
Hu Er smiled: "Third master, the goods will be given to you next time, and help us solve the trouble first." ”
Immediately, Hu Er told the matter of the big golden tooth, as soon as he heard that it was a horse thief, the third master looked solemn, and several people around him were very serious, it seems that the big golden tooth group is very powerful, otherwise why are they so nervous.
The third master looked at Zhong Wenbin and the others, frowned and said, "You guys are in a big trouble, let's go in first." ”
When Zhong Wenbin heard this, his nerves also relaxed, as long as there is a shelter, it is easy to say. The three of them hurriedly entered the stockade, and the third master ordered the people in the stockade to guard the gate and not allow anyone to enter.
The village is not big, the size of an ordinary small village, there are old people and women, as well as children, the hills on both sides are straight, and the natural barrier land, Zhong Wenbin knows that there are many such villages in the northeast, all of which are built on the mountainside for defense, which can be regarded as a kind of protection measure.
The third master led Zhong Wenbin and the three of them to a large courtyard in the innermost, and then sat on a stone chair with tea in front of him.
"The two of you were brought by Hu Er, so rest here with peace of mind." The third master is very bold and hospitable.
Zhong Wenbin's heart was still hanging, and he asked, "Third master, aren't you afraid of horse thieves?" ”
The third master laughed, his beard fluttered, and he was quite arrogant: "No one has ever dared to make trouble in this place, don't worry." ”
Zhong Wenbin looked at Hu Er, he also nodded, it seemed that he trusted the third master very much, no matter how unreliable he was, but there was nowhere to go at the moment, Zhong Wenbin could only believe him temporarily.
In the next few hours, the big golden tooth didn't seem to come to the door, Zhong Wenbin's hanging heart was also put down, and the third master arranged a house for the two of them. As for Hu Er, he went to other places with the third master, and he didn't know what to do.
That night, after Zhong Wenbin finished eating the meal that was delivered, he sat alone at the door, watching the children in the village frolicking, his mood was very calm, and Liu Youlan on the side also looked out blankly.
In fact, this woman is very pitiful, very lonely, and doesn't talk much, but her skin has eased a lot compared to before and is slowly recovering.
Later, Zhong Wenbin also went back to the room alone to rest, originally thinking about replenishing his strength and leaving early tomorrow morning.
However, in the second half of the night, a gunshot rang out outside, and the whole village suddenly became full of people and noisy.
Seeing this, Zhong Wenbin got up from the bed, and before he could go out, Hu Er rushed in: "Hurry up, the big gold tooth has rushed in with someone." ”
Then, he pulled Zhong Wenbin and ran out, as for Liu Youlan, she was already standing at the door.
Outside the village, the flames were blazing, the gunshots were loud, and there were some screams from time to time, and the old people and children were standing at the door of their houses in panic.
The third master led a group of people to rush out: "The stockade is surrounded, don't run around." ”
After speaking, he rushed to the wooden building on the top of the stockade with a gun, and then shot outside, the scene was very intense, Zhong Wenbin saw that there were torches on the surrounding mountain walls, it seemed that the big gold tooth had been preparing for a day, and this time he rushed in.
"The stockade must not be able to hold it, is there any other way." Zhong Wenbin asked.
"No matter how there is a way, I regret that I brought you here." Hu Er cried with a face and looked flustered.
Zhong Wenbin was also scared at this time, and began to think about the way to escape, otherwise he would have to explain here tonight.
But just when the two sides were fighting, suddenly, a dark cloud rolled up in the sky, covering the top of the village, Zhong Wenbin and Hu Er looked up and were stunned!
