At this time, a few people came to Xia Li's door and knocked on the door and asked, "Is your house wild again?" ”

Zhu Er opened the door and walked out. He didn't dare to let those people in, and the women in the house were all disheveled.

He had a lingering palpitation and said, "It's not a wild thing, it's a thief." I was shot and injured by my eldest girl, and I was scared away, and Dangdang was also shot and injured. ”

When they heard that it was a thief, they were shocked. A person said, "It's the Chinese New Year now, isn't it that Xiangshan is tightly guarded, and bandits are not easy to rob, so they came here?" ”

The man's words frightened everyone, including Xia, and the knife in her hand fell to the ground in one fell swoop.

Several people outside the door shouted loudly at the same time, "Hurry up the big guys, bandits are coming, bandits are coming, bandits are coming...... The voice was very terrifying.

After a burst of people barking at the dogs, there was a piercing gong, and the village immediately became noisy, and Zhu Er also went out with a woodcutter and torches to chase the bandits along the bloodstains with the men.

There are village soldiers in the village, and in case of emergency, they will gather to defend their homes. Each family will produce an adult male, and the Xia family is Xia Zhu.

Zhu Er went to chase people, Zhu Er's family ran to ask for Dr. Zhou, there was no veterinarian in the village, so he had to be treated. Old Doctor Zhou came over in a hurry, he pulled out the arrow according to the method of treating the wounds, used it as medicine, bandaged it with a collapse belt, and prescribed a decoction. said that because Dangdang ran and jumped with the injury, the wound was enlarged and he lost too much blood.

Xia Li hugged Dangdang on his bed and lay down, seeing that there were tears in its eyes, and his mood was unstable, he kept roaring with his mouth open, gently smoothing its fur and comforting it. It wasn't until Zhu Er's family boiled the decoction and fed it that it gradually fell asleep.

Seeing that Dangdang was sleeping peacefully, Xia Li went to the hall.

Xia Shi sat on the chair with Xia Ju in his arms, adults were more scared than children, his eyes were straight, and his body and mouth kept shaking. The bear trembled even more, curled into a ball and leaned against one of Xia's legs. When Xiong Xiang saw that Xia was leaving, he stretched out his little bear paw and asked his sister to hug him.

Xia Li knew what Xia was worried about, and if it was something else, she wouldn't be scared like this. Xia Li was also afraid, afraid that those people were coming specifically at her.

If you want to rob money, you should go to the landlord's house. Her family's money is relatively secret, no one knows, and there is nothing of value in the family except for the house. Those people ventured to her house to rob her money, which was a loss-making business. Unless it's for the sake of lust......

Xia Li lowered his body and picked up the bear, sat down next to Xia's side and comforted, "Mother, don't be afraid, it's okay." ”

In this home, Xia Li is the backbone of everyone.

Xia Ju saw his sister sitting calmly on the side, and he also calmed down. persuaded Xia Shidao, "Mother, the bad guys have been beaten away, and they don't dare to come again." ”

The door rang again, and the voices of Xia Tie and Mrs. Xia, "Lan Niang (sister), how are you?" ”

I wish the second family to hurry up and open the door.

I heard that there was an incident at my daughter's house again, and the old couple were frightened, and the old man Xia was still coming, and he was persuaded to stop him, his legs and feet were inconvenient, and it was difficult to walk at night. Xia Zhu was called to chase the thief, and Xia Tie helped the old lady to come and see the girl's house.

Seeing that the Xia family was fine, they were relieved.

Not mentioning money, the old lady still cares about her daughter, and she doesn't want her daughter's family to have an accident. She was afraid, "Thanks to you for buying the Zhu Er family, it's really not okay to have no adult man in the family." And that vicious dog, it should be used when it is critical......"

Xia Ju hurriedly said, "My family is not a vicious dog, it was injured and shed a lot of blood in order to protect my sister." As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes again, and he was so distressed.

Xia Tie said again, "Your family still lives in the middle of the village, if only you built a smaller yard in the middle of the village." ”

Seeing that Xia's teeth were so frightened that the gums "gurgled", several people persuaded them for a while. said that those bandits saw how powerful Xia Li and Dangdang were, and they didn't dare to come to her house in the future. Besides, now that the village soldiers have started patrolling every day, those people can't even enter the village......

It took a long time for Xia to recover and pull Xia Li tighter.

Zhou Li and the others chased down the mountain along the bloodstains, but had to come back. The mountain is so big, dozens of them can't find it at all. If there are many bandits hiding in the mountains, they will suffer.

Zhou Lizheng went to Xia Li's house again and asked Xia Li about the situation. Zhu Er had already said that he was afraid that there would be something missing, so he came to ask Xia Li again.

Xia Li said that she didn't see it clearly, those people were all covered with cloth towels, and there should be more than six people. He also said that they came from home to rob, and they should have seen that this yard was newer, and the location was closer to the mountain, so it was easy to run. She couldn't say that the bandits might come and rob her, and that would hurt her reputation.

Zhou Lizheng said pointedly, "I will tell the villagers that every household should close its doors and windows, and be vigilant at night." Also, recently, the little lady and daughter-in-law should not go up the mountain, and do not go out alone at night, just in case. ”

He also asked Zhu Er to join the township soldiers.

Xia Li nodded in agreement. Every villager has this obligation, and it turns out that there are no male in her family. Now that you have it, you should participate.

It wasn't until everyone was gone that Xia breathed a sigh of relief. With tears in his eyes, he said to Xia Li, "Lili, listen to my mother's words, don't go up the mountain again, don't go out at night, don't go out of the village alone, it's best not to leave the house." Sleep at night with the door plugged in......"

Xia Li was also scared and nodded in agreement.

It's still early, so you can rest for a while. Xia slept on Xia Ju's couch and put the knife under the couch. She asked Xia Ju to sleep in her bedroom, but Xia Ju was reluctant, saying that he wanted to protect his mother and sister.

Xia Li lay on the bed, and when he opened his eyes and looked at her, he fell asleep again.

She thought, if there was no dangdang, those people came in and stunned people, would she really be caught on the mountain as a "lady of the village"? If that's the case, she'd rather die and the net be broken.

Suddenly, she remembered the scarface. That person is not only ugly, but also has a fierce face, will this matter have anything to do with him? Oh, by the way, the cloth that Scarface covered when he rode the horse was the same as the cloth that covered the faces of the men yesterday, it was black and gray.

She looked into the hall again, and could see a corner of the couch where Xia Ju slept. Fortunately, because he had to help Xia Ju catch urine, and he was afraid that he would be afraid of being alone at night, the doors of the two bedrooms were never closed when he slept at night. Her eyes are good, and she runs fast when she goes out with a bow, and she is faster when she is dangdang. If those people enter the courtyard, even if they are not taken captive, their reputation will not be good......

These people, except for Xia Ju, fell asleep again, Xia and Xia Li all turned over and over, and opened their eyes until dawn.

The next day, the people in the village were so panicked that the young women and children were afraid to go out, and the doors were closed tightly. Occasionally, a man walks around the village, either a man or a woman of a certain age.

Around the end of the day, I heard the village gong ring again. This is the village in an emergency to gather villager representatives for a meeting, Zhu Er went on behalf of the Xia family.
