Chapter XXVII: Investigating the Bandits
Suddenly, they stopped and walked to the Ding family on the side.
"Bumper Bumper"
"Who is it?"
Hearing such a hurried knock on the door, Lilac also hurriedly stepped forward to open the door.
"Girl, is your dad at home?" The third uncle asked, his tone seemed to be less majestic than usual, and more hurried.
"I'm helping my mother clean the house, third grandfather, you go in quickly." Lilac said politely.
However, the third uncle was in no mood to care about these anymore, so he opened the door directly. Walked in.
"Third uncle, you're here." Seeing the group, Ding Da also greeted loudly.
"Well, Ah Da, let's go and talk."
After that, Ding Da followed the third uncle out of the house, and Lilac followed closely when he saw this.
"Ah, I heard from the people in the village, last night at the third watch, someone saw a few people with knives in the south of the village, but I didn't expect this bandit to be more and more blatant."
"What." As soon as the third uncle's words fell, Ding Da Yi exclaimed.
At this time, Lilac was also very surprised, in her previous life, she had never heard of this bandit so rampant.
"Third grandfather, that person has seen clearly, is it confirmed that he is a bandit?" Lilac asked.
Hearing Lilac's child-like weak voice, Ding Da suddenly frowned.
But the third uncle waved his hand, after all, Lilac's words last time surprised them. So when he saw Lilac talking this time, the third uncle didn't feel strange.
"The man was a midnight patrol in the village, and he often came out and walked around at that time, so he could see at a glance whether he was from the village or not. And he was still holding a knife. The third uncle responded patiently.
"The third uncle has already thought of a good way to deal with it this time?" Lilac asked again.
"Girl, this is what we are here for."
"We plan to let the uncle go with us to find out the number of bandits and the number of their weapons, so that we can deal with them as soon as possible." Ding Sheng, the grandson of the third uncle, spoke.
Hearing his words, Ding Xiang suddenly frowned slightly, after all, bandits are some guys who kill people without blinking, and he is very worried about Ding. However, she didn't say anything to dissuade her, Ding Da was naturally natural for everyone to do something as a person in the village, and Ding Da had always been good at hunting, and he had nothing to say. If he doesn't go, he can't say it.
"Third uncle, since this is the case, without further ado, let's prepare first."
Ding Da opened his mouth and said, the rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband, since the bandits have bullied them, naturally, he will not flinch.
"Ah, you must be careful."
In the house, after hearing Lilac's narration, he also hurriedly ran out of the house and instructed.
......
The Ding family has a rule, that is, every time there is a big thing. They all have to go to the mourning hall of the Ding family to worship. Because they believe that their ancestors will bless them.
In front of the Ding family's mourning hall, as the current patriarch of the Ding family, the third uncle was the first to kneel down and worship his ancestors. The rest followed.
The third uncle told him all the things that had not gone well recently in front of the spirit. Hopefully, the ancestors will bless them. Everyone knelt down and prayed to their ancestors.
Slowly, a few more people were willing to join in the operation to check on the robbers.
......
After discussing it, everyone decided to come at night, and then the night and their understanding of the surroundings were also better actions.
Along the way, Ding Da has been telling their fellow villagers not to be too anxious, after all, we have a lot of manpower. It's really an accident, and it also has the power to fight, and no matter how uneven it is, it can run.
Although they know this truth, the big guys are still silent, after all, most of them are authentic croppers, and they will do some farm work on weekdays, unlike Ding Da who hunts often and has faced all kinds of ferocious beasts.
As we walked, suddenly there were a few fires in front of me, and it was the place where the bandits lived. The conservative work of the bandits' dwellings is also in place. There are also special people guarding the door, and it is not so easy to get in.
Ding Da and several people waited at the door for an opportunity to enter and find out the news inside the enemy. But they didn't get the slightest chance until late at night, and this gang of bandits did things regularly, and someone came to replace them at midnight.
Ding Da had to find a way to get in from somewhere else, and looked around the outside of the bandits' residence and found a wall to climb into.
"I had to climb up the wall and take a look, these guys are too careful." Ding Sheng was on the side. In fact, there is really no way, otherwise Ding Da would not want to do this.
People on the side, you look at me, I look at you, but no one dares to be this bird.
"I'll jump first."
At this time, a man stood up and saw him take the lead, and everyone followed. Ding Da watched at the end, just in case.
A few people are unusually careful.
"This bandit's a big house, but a lot of places seem to be empty." Ding Da whispered to everyone on the side.
"Why don't we go down and have a look, we have been observing for so long a day, and we haven't seen a single one in this camp." On the side, Ding Ergouzi also spoke.
"It's not right, if someone finds out, the praise will be over." Ding Sheng was worried.
"If you don't go into the tiger's den, you won't be a tiger, and you kid won't be a frequent hunter."
After that, Ding Ergouzi also climbed off the wall directly. Seeing this, everyone also followed.
As they walked, they found a very tight place that seemed to be their secret base. There were many guards far more than the people at the door.
"Looks like this is the place for them to discuss things, and I'm going to listen. You are waiting for me here," Ding Da said to his subordinates.
Because Ding Da knew that the handles would be very strict, and he was afraid that others would be hurt and exposed, so he had to go by himself.
After entering, Ding Da carefully walked every step and probed the various forces of the enemy. It was found that there were not so many bandits, but they were a little more equipped.
Soon, Ding Da came out.
"Let's go, they don't seem to be as terrible as we thought, but now it's definitely not possible with just a few of us." Ding Da said to his subordinates with certainty.
Ding Da led a group of people to prepare to go out, but there was an accident. When someone climbed down the wall, he suddenly threw a brick in his hand, and it happened to fall next to a bandit who came out to pee.
"Who, who??"
The bandit looked up and saw the figure falling from the wall, and immediately exclaimed.
"It's not good, there's an outsider mixed in, chase after it, don't let them run."
