Chapter 69: Homecoming
The two of them smiled, anyway, as long as he didn't go out, whatever he wanted.
The one-eyed dragon was naturally not stupid or stupid, he stood on the stage and said to the people in the audience, "Someone has come and brought the captive." โ
He's not stupid, and if he's in danger, he can use it as a bargaining chip.
The one-eyed dragon took the captive outside, and as soon as he walked outside, he saw that there were people everywhere around, and General Lin stood in front of the people, looking righteous and awe-inspiring.
"It's finally out, I thought you were all shrunken turtles." General Lin laughed at them.
"That's right, we're shrunken turtles, what else can you do?"
Compared with life and dignity, of course the one-eyed dragon chooses dignity, he looks so indifferent, as he speaks, General Lin laughs, sure enough, they are all bandits.
"I advise you to disarm and surrender now, lest your sword have no eyes." Lin Lin reminded them, but in fact, he mocked them that these bandits were spineless.
"It's too early for us to surrender." The one-eyed dragon clapped his hands as he spoke, saying, "Someone brought me in." โ
Then two people took the captive over, and Wu Yalong took out a knife and put it on his neck, looking domineering and condescending, and said this: "If you don't retreat, I will kill him, I see if you retreat." โ
General Lin has long been accustomed to facing these threats often, so he is naturally not afraid, and now he especially hates that someone threatens him, making him so scared, it is really ridiculous.
"You're threatening the wrong person, aren't you? Do you think I'm scared? General Lin opened his mouth to say this, and the one-eyed dragon smiled and said, "You can not be afraid, I don't know if this person in my hand is not afraid of death." โ
"If you have the ability, you will kill." General Lin naturally would not agree to withdraw from the army, but the people around him did not think so.
They kept coaxing and persuaded General Lin: "This is also a human life, so let's retreat." โ
"Even if I feel like I'd better quit the army."
In the face of the coercion of the people around him, General Lin also seemed particularly helpless, and he had to withdraw first, and then find another way.
When the robbers were gone, Lilac turned her head, thought for a moment, and said to the people, "Folks, let's go back by water." โ
"Why do you have to go by water?" Someone asked.
"The water route is safer than the land route," said Lilac firmly, "and the robbers look like people from the north, who are not accustomed to water, and will certainly not go out on water." We are safest when we go by water. โ
"Oh......"
Although the villagers didn't understand this very well, they also knew that the girl was telling the truth, she was thinking about them, and they all responded to the cloves.
"And where are we going to find a boat now?" Someone else threw out the question.
Lilac lowered her eyes and thought, "It's too late to find a boat, let's go find some empty tree trunks and lean on driftwood." โ
As soon as the words fell, the villagers went around, and Lilac was no exception, and went to find some tree trunks that could float on the water.
Although it is dangerous to cross the river in this way, as long as it is operated properly and the weather is not too bad, it is possible to reach the destination, but it will take longer.
After some busy work, they finally found enough tree trunks, and everyone had sweat on their faces, and they didn't have time to wipe them off, so they hurriedly pushed them to the river.
"One, two, three!"
A tree trunk went into the water.
"Poofโ"
Two trunks went into the water.
In order to return to the village, the big guys used all their strength to eat milk.
Soon, the trunks of the trees went into the water, and two people had one trunk and two decent "oars" in their hands.
"Let's go! Back to the village! Lilac shouted.
Just now, Lilac gave them a rough explanation of how to operate the driftwood, and for a while, there were large circles of ripples on the surface of the water, and the sound of the wooden strips going into the water was endless.
The scenery on both sides is receding, and the sweaty cloves have no time to take care of it, only paddling hard to maintain balance.
I don't know how long it took to row, but everyone finally saw that the village was not far away, and their hearts were encouraged, and they paddled harder. Soon, they were on the shore.
Some people couldn't even wait for the driftwood to come to the shore, so they threw the wooden sticks, got into the water barefoot, and ran to the shore, with happy smiles on their faces.
"Finally to the village!"
"Here!"
"It's time to go home!"
The cheers rang out one after another, and a smile appeared on the corner of Lilac's mouth.
"Thank you, girl." Someone came to Lilac and thanked her, "I never thought that I would be able to come back alive in the hands of those bandits." If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to go back to the village. โ
As he spoke, he wiped his eyes with his water-soaked sleeves, and tears were glistening under his eyes.
"No thanks, I'm helping myself." Lilac comforted with a smile on the corner of her mouth.
I don't know who proposed: "Or, let's hold a village banquet to celebrate!" โ
As soon as these words came out, they were pandered to by everyone.
"Yes, yes! That's a great idea! โ
"Big guy, let's go home and change clothes first, your family must be in a hurry at home, go home and report safety!" Lilac spoke.
"Yes, yes, yes! My mother-in-law must be worried! โ
"Lilac girl, are you coming to the village banquet?" Someone asked about cloves.
Lilac smiled and refused, "I won't do it." โ
Everyone still wanted to persuade them again, but looking at Lilac's expression, they still gave up.
Lilac said goodbye to everyone and walked home.
Parents...... You should be in a hurry, right?
Lilac lowered her eyes, there was a smile in her eyes, and her steps were faster.
This village is really warm.
Now it is dusk, the sunset is like a red ball, full of warmth, the clouds around are dyed with magnificent colors, and slowly gradually turn into a blue sky with a little orange, to the horizon, another orange line crosses.
The view is truly beautiful.
Lilac sighed.
She had never paid attention to such a beautiful view before, and was always in a hurry to let time fly by, and now she ...... That's good.
A smile tugged at the corner of Lilac's mouth as she paced to the front of the house.
At the door, she heard a cry from inside, and her steps stopped.
I only heard my mother's voice intermittently coming from inside: "What do you say about cloves...... Why are my cloves so miserable! It's so hard! โ
"If I had taken her a more honest look and kept her out of the house, she wouldn't have been kidnapped by those bandits...... Woohoo......"
Lilac's heart moved, pushed open the door, and saw the mother crying in front of her father, and said, "Dad, mother, I'm back." โ
