Chapter 160: The Beginning of the War

The two came to the firewood room, and the women from the firewood room stood up one after another, and Yingyi said with a shallow smile on his face, "Our eldest brother said, if you want to stay, you can stay, and if you don't want to stay, you should go back and go back." ”

"I... Is there any benefit to us staying here, what are we doing? Ah Xiang suddenly stood in front of her with a scared look and asked cautiously.

Ying Yi couldn't help but feel a little sad when he saw Ah Xiang like this, and then explained, "If you stay, you will work, cleaning, washing dishes, and cooking, and these jobs that women do, and they will have a certain salary every month." ”

The girls couldn't help but smile when they heard this, and felt that it might be much better to stay here than to stay at home. The family does not only do housework, but also bring younger siblings with them, feed livestock and poultry, etc... It would be a bad thing if you were just doing housework and getting money here.

"That's... What if someone bullies us? Ah Xiang showed a timid expression.

"Don't worry, we have a rule that if you harass a woman, you will be shot." Keichi responded with a smile.

From the very beginning, the Suzaku family decided that women could not be harassed, as long as it was a woman, it was not possible to harass them, including verbal harassment, and if they found out, they would be shot immediately. Not long after the rules were set, someone broke the rules and was directly shot by Zhu Ming's ancestor on the spot, and nothing like this has happened since.

In the past, there were some old women and young women or women who did housework and laundry. It's just that there are too few young people, and the yang is prosperous and the yin is declining, and now it's not a bad thing to get the girls in.

"Now if you want to stay, register your name here, and then there will be a mother-in-law to take you there, and if you don't want to stay, we will send you back." After Eichi finished speaking, he took out a notebook, and the girls said their names one after another.

Ah Xiang walked up to Ying Yi, picked up the pen and wrote her name, Ying Yi was a little surprised that she could write, in this era, she can't even eat, let alone the countryside. It is even more impossible for women to study, and in this era, except for the daughters of large families who have the opportunity to go to school, it is even more impossible in the countryside.

Xiao Hei was a little surprised on the side, and stepped forward to ask, "Can you write?" ”

Ah Xiang was a little frightened and stepped back, and when Ying saw Xiao Hei's move, he immediately blocked Xiao Hei's movement and said, "You scared her." ”

Xiao Hei was a little speechless and said, "Most country girls can't write, how can she write?" ”

"I... There used to be a teacher in our village who stayed with us for a while, and he took in some students, and I followed a few girls to listen to a few lessons, and I barely knew a few words..."Ah Xiang explained with a look of grievance.

Seeing Ah Xiang's expression on the side, Ying Yi couldn't help but comfort: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid." Then he turned his head and said to Xiao Hei, "Why are you so fierce to girls, you are not usually like this!" ”

"How do you prove what you say?" Xiao Hei directly ignored Ying Yi's words and asked Ah Xiang.

Ah Xiang frowned aggrievedly, and looked very pitiful as if tears were about to flow out.

"They... They belong to the same village as me, don't believe it... If you don't believe me, ask them...," Xiang said, pointing to a few of the girls.

There were three girls standing next to them, standing in front and nodding their heads again and again, "Really, what she said is true." ”

"I apologize for what I just said, I'm sorry!" Xiao Hei said and immediately bent down to apologize.

Xiao Hei's doubts in his heart were dispelled, but he was still vigilant against Ah Xiang.

After Xiao Hei finished processing, he took the list to Zhu Ming's room, and Zhu Ming looked at it.

"Big brother, there were 23 people, but now there are 15 people, and eight have gone, and those eight are indeed from that village." Xiao Hei said one by one.

"Those who are left behind must send someone to find out the background and origin." Zhu Ming looked at the list and said.

"Well, I'll send someone to do it right away, but..."

"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Zhu Ming saw through Xiao Hei's doubts and said.

Xiao Hei heard that he had some bottom in his heart, so he said: "There is a person named Ah Xiang who stayed, she can write, and there were three women who testified to her at that time, when there was a teacher in their village who came to teach, and then I found that the three women knew how to write, but they couldn't write, I thought it was very strange." ”

Zhu Ming fell silent after hearing this, this is true, either the four of them bought the same, or the three women were not as enterprising as Ah Xiang.

"Send someone to check the background of the three women, the situation at home, and the village to check whether there are really teachers." Zhu Ming thought, it's useless to suspect so much, it's better to send someone to check directly.

After a few days, Ah Xiang finally got familiar with the environment of Suzaku's home, unlike when she first arrived, she was always lost.

Xiao Hei happened to go to the kitchen to find something to eat, and happened to run into Ah Xiang who was working in the kitchen. It just so happened that there was no one in the kitchen at this time, did he come to the kitchen to find something to eat if he wasn't full today, but he didn't expect to meet Ah Xiang, the spies sent before have not returned, and now he is still suspicious of Ah Xiang's identity.

"Eh~ Xiao Hei, are you hungry?" Ah Xiang said with a smile, her smile was like a flower, if it was Ying Yi now, she would definitely be a nymphomaniac.

Xiao Hei snorted coldly and didn't answer Ah Xiang's words, and looked for food to eat.

"Xiao Hei, I'll cook for you what you want to eat, and they say it's delicious when I cook." Ah Xiang approached Xiao Hei and said sweetly with a smile.

"You're farther away than me." Xiao Hei directly pushed Ah Xiang away, who knew that Ah Xiang fell to the ground when Xiao Hei pushed it, the air suddenly became embarrassed, and the rustle of the wind blowing through the leaves outside the window seemed to be very quiet in the kitchen.....

Blackie stood in place, at a loss. Biting his lip, he said, "I... I didn't mean to....."

"You... You're so nasty... Me? Ah Xiang immediately cried with pear blossoms and rain, and said in a trembling voice.

Xiao Hei looked at Ah Xiang with a pitiful face, sitting on the ground with tears on her face. Xiao Hei was silent, and finally reached out to pull Ah Xiang up and turned around and walked out of the kitchen.

Xiao Hei felt very guilty in his heart, he didn't expect this, Xiao Hei thought that he had to apologize, this time it was not Ah Xiang who was wrong, it was himself.

Xiao Hei wanted to go to Ah Xiang these days, but he didn't dare to go in as soon as he arrived in the kitchen, and occasionally suddenly met Ah Xiang on the road, and Ah Xiang immediately turned around and left before Ah Xiang could speak. Ah Xiang's eyes lit up, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but hook.

After a few days, Xiao Hei felt better, and even if he saw Ah Xiang again, he would not be so embarrassed anymore. However, when Xiao Hei was going to find Ah Xiang, he often ran into Ah Xiang staying with Yingyi, and Xiao Hei felt that it was not good to bother, so he left directly, knowing that he had not yet apologized.

Xiao Hei had just received the news from the spies, and Xiao Hei hurriedly walked towards Zhu Ming's room with three envelopes in his arms. Xiao Hei happened to be walking on the corridor, and Xiao Hei turned his head to see Ah Xiang standing on the pavilion wearing a pleated long skirt, and several women of the same age were chatting.

Xiao Hei was stunned for a while, Ah Xiang was wearing a short-sleeved shirt with a pleated long skirt, combed a half ponytail, and the sideburns on both sides of her bangs fluttered in the wind. Ah Xiang laughed when she saw Xiao Hei, revealing rows of white teeth, and her eyes were crooked, looking very cute but innocent.

"Blackie, where are you going?" Ah Xiang asked with a smile.

Xiao Hei reacted at this time, and said with some embarrassment, "I.. I'll go to my eldest brother's, I'm in a hurry, I'll go first..."Xiao Hei left directly after speaking, and there was someone next to Ah Xiang, Xiao Hei felt very embarrassed, and he was actually in a daze.

I couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, Xiao Hei came to the door of Zhu Ming's study, knocked on the door a few times, and then said, "Big brother, the news of the spies has arrived." ”

Zhu Ming, who was holding the book, said after hearing this: "Come in!" ”

Xiao Hei pushed the door in and took out the three envelopes in his arms. Zhu Ming took the envelope and read it once, and after reading it once, the corners of his mouth hooked, and he whispered to Xiao Hei: "Those three women are indeed from the same village as that Ah Xiang, and these people who stay can use it, and there is good news that Wu Dashan is sick and dead, and the White Tiger family is doing a funeral." ”

"Then now it's Wu Zhaoyan who is coming to take over?" Xiao Hei said happily.

"Sixty percent of the time, it's up to him." Zhu Ming said lightly.

Wu Dashan's strength is above Zhu Ming, and now that he is dead, Zhu Ming has one less opponent, which undoubtedly reduces the burden on his shoulders, and the rest only needs to find some spies to probe Wu Zhaoyan's strength.

Wu Zhaoyan was relatively deep in the White Tiger family, and he did not stay in the White Tiger family before he was seven years old. His father sent him to the Shaolin Temple when he was just full moon, lived with the monks of the Shaolin Temple, learned martial arts, and took him back to the White Tiger family when he was seven years old because of his father's abnormal health. His strength has been concealed, and the only people who practice fighting with him can be his cronies.

Most of the people in the White Tiger family didn't know the strength of this Wu Zhaoyan, let alone the people of the Suzaku family.

The White Tiger family recently died of Wu Dashan's illness Wu Zhaoyan's uncle began to compete for the leading position, the rules of the White Tiger family are inherited by the next generation, Wu Zhaoyan is the eldest one, but it is inevitable that the hearts of his uncles. Wu Zhaoyan knew very well in his heart that the people of this family began to do whatever it took in order to compete for the position.

Including Wu Dashan's death, someone may have secretly drugged him, and Wu Zhaoyan knew very well that his father's death could not have contracted the disease. Wu Zhaoyan used several methods to silence those uncles in the family and let him sit in the position of leader.

Blackie was lying on the tree, looking at the shadows of the leaves, and the sunlight shone on Blackie's body through the cracks between the leaves. Xiao Hei was thinking about what he looked like when he saw Ah Xiang that day, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook... If there was a mirror, he would probably be surprised to see his expression.

"Blackie? Is that you? ”

A silver bell-like voice rang in Hei's ears, and Hei sat up.

"Eh, it's really you, why are you on it." Ah Xiang smiled a little happily when she saw that it was Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei remembered that Ah Xiang's cheeks suddenly appeared in his mind just now, and his cheeks couldn't help but be slightly hot, Xiao Hei was a little embarrassed and didn't answer, Ah Xiang didn't care if he answered, just smiled happily.

Xiao Hei jumped off the tree, embarrassed and asked, "I... Lie down on it and rest for a while. ”

"You're amazing!" Ah Xiang said with a grin.

Xiao Hei looked at Ah Xiang, who was half a head shorter than him in front of him, and smiled like a flower. The two looked at each other for a while, and the atmosphere around them became a little ambiguous. Ah Xiang took a step in, gently stood on tiptoe and kissed Xiao Hei's lips, and Xiao Hei was completely stunned......

Xiao Hei reacted and took a step back, this step was very careless, and the whole person fell to the ground. Xiao Hei looked at Ah Xiang blankly, but Ah Xiang was still smiling.

Xiao Hei stumbled away, and Ah Xiang saw Xiao Hei who had fled, and the corners of his mouth showed a little evil smile.

I don't know how long I ran away, Xiao Hei turned his head to see that Ah Xiang didn't chase after him, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Xiao Hei remembered what had just happened, and felt a little complicated in his heart. He is now very sure of Ah Xiang's place in his heart, and he likes Ah Xiang......

In the past few days, Xiao Hei has always felt very guilty about his brother, and he can see that Ying Yi likes Ah Xiang very much. So I wanted to try not to show my feelings for Ah Xiang.

Xiao Hei had just received the letter from the spies, and was on the way to Zhu Ming with the letter, when Xiao Hei happened to bump into Ah Xiang on the corridor, holding Ying Yi and the two of them looking at each other affectionately, looking like a newlywed couple who had just gotten married.

At this time, the two of them saw someone coming over and let go a little embarrassed, and Ying Yi scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "Little... Blackie, where are you going? ”

Xiao Hei didn't say a word and walked directly past the two of them, Xiao Hei felt that Ah Xiang was like a person stepping on two boats at the moment.

"Big brother, do you have any news this time?" Xiao Hei looked at Zhu Ming and frowned, thinking that something must have happened.

Zhu Ming was silent for a while before he spoke: "Have you behaved strangely recently?" ”

Xiao Hei shook his head in confusion,

"Big brother, is something happening?"

"The White Tiger Family has been practicing very frequently recently, and even Wu Zhaoyan has begun to supervise the drills, they should mean to start a war..."Zhu Ming was a little puzzled, why the White Tiger Family suddenly started drilling, and even Wu Zhaoyan supervised it.

Zhu Ming had a bad premonition in his heart, and felt that he had better make some preparations.

"You will go and inform the brothers to start the drill tomorrow, don't be late, I will supervise."

When Xiao Hei heard the meaning of Bai Zhuming, he opened his mouth and responded, "I'll go and inform you now." ”

Xiao Hei walked out of Zhu Ming's room, and at this time, he only had the question of why the White Tiger family suddenly practiced in his mind, and he just wanted to put aside Ah Xiang's matter at this moment.

After finding a number of brothers, Xiao Hei informed him of the incident, and some complained about how they had suddenly started drilling. The drill is even more tiring than usual, and after a long time of comfortable days, you won't want to go to a hard life.

Shadow One walked to Xiao Hei's side and put his hand on Xiao Hei's shoulder directly, Xiao Hei knew that it was Shadow One and said, "What's wrong?" ”

Ying Yi smiled proudly, "I'm going to tell my eldest brother that I want to marry Ah Xiang." ”

Xiao Hei suddenly stopped, and a sour mood suddenly surged in his heart, Xiao Hei wanted Ah Xiang in the pavilion to smile so brightly, and he kissed Ah Xiang under the tree that day....

Ah Xiang agreed. Xiao Hei pretended to be calm and said.

"Well, Ah Xiang said she was pregnant, and I wanted to give her a home." Keichi's expression couldn't help but soften when he spoke.

Xiao Hei suddenly felt a basin of cold water drenched over his head, and his whole body was cold.

"Blackie? What happened to you? Seeing Xiao Hei in a daze, Ying Yi shook Xiao Hei and asked.

Xiao Hei tried to restrain the tremors all over his body, he just didn't understand what his place in Ah Xiang's heart was? Xiao Hei tried to withdraw a smile and said, "I'm fine, I'm going to go there beforehand." ”

Xiao Hei, who was walking on the road, seemed to have been drained of his soul. Xiao Hei felt very tired now, and dragged his heavy body to Zhu Ming's room. Xiao Hei knew that most of Zhu Ming was reading in the study, Xiao Hei came to the outside of the study and knocked on the door, and Zhu Ming's tired voice came from the room, "Who?" ”

"It's me, Blackie...", said weakly.

"Come in." Zhu Ming thought that there might be news of another spy.

Xiao Hei pushed the door in, Zhu Ming was a little frightened when he saw that he looked powerful and airless, and hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Why are you so weak?" ”

"Big brother...", Xiao Hei said, tears flowing uncontrollably.

Seeing this, Zhu Ming hurriedly took out his handkerchief and handed it to Xiao Hei, and said a little anxiously, "Don't worry, don't worry, say it slowly....."

Xiao Hei took the handkerchief and began to wipe away his tears, and after a while, he told Zhu Ming everything that happened to him and Ah Xiang. Zhu Ming fell into thinking after hearing this, many of his brothers have come to him recently to complain, and most of them are similar to those encountered by Xiao Hei.

Xiao Hei looked at Zhu Ming and thought for a while, and suddenly a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of Zhu Ming's mouth, and he slowly opened his mouth and said, "We have fallen into the trap, and the trap is these women." ”

"Didn't you check their backgrounds in the first place?" Xiao Hei was a little confused by Zhu Ming's words.

Zhu Ming smiled and continued, "It can only be said that this trap designed by the White Tiger family is really perfect, but he forgot that the Suzaku family is different from theirs. ”

The Suzaku family is indeed very different from the White Tiger family, the leader of the White Tiger family is like a little emperor, but the Suzaku family must get along with everyone like brothers.

Because Zhu Ming reads a lot of books, most of the people in the Suzaku family can't read books, so they come to talk to Zhu Ming whenever they have big troubles, and they usually come to talk about feelings, and naturally Zhu Ming is becoming more and more proficient in feelings.

Zhu Ming heard so many brothers complaining about almost the same thing during this time, Zhu Ming felt strange in his heart, so he thought of the recent drill of the White Tiger family, and the two knew what was going on when they were connected.

Xiao Hei thought about it carefully, and Zhu Ming still didn't understand.

"Recently, there have been more brothers than usual who have come to me to talk about relationships, and it's pretty much the same as you said, so it's time for you to move." Zhu Ming still didn't understand when he saw Xiao Hei.

After hearing this, Xiao Hei suddenly remembered that the White Tiger family had started practicing some time ago, and with Zhu Ming's reminder, he suddenly understood and nodded again and again.

"The drill time during this period is longer, and the reason is that the White Tiger family has started the drill, which may mean that they are planning to start a war." Zhu Ming smiled and said.

"Understood!" Xiao Hei immediately responded after hearing this.

Xiao Hei felt that it was a pity for Ah Xiang, he grew up in Suzaku's house, and never thought that he would be tempted one day, and he was provoked by Ah Xiang. But when she understood, she realized that he and Keichi were just toys for her injuries......

After the matter was notified, no one made any more hard noises. Because of the drill some time ago, and hearing about the recent drill of the White Tiger family, everyone seemed to be of the same mind, and no one was late, resistant, or dissented, which made Xiao Hei breathe a sigh of relief, and he was afraid that these brothers would tear their faces because of women.

A month later, Zhu Ming looked at the note in his hand, the corners of his mouth picked, looked at Xiao Hei and said, "Tell the brothers to start preparing for the battle tonight, the White Tiger family may want me to start a war tomorrow, tell everyone to get ready, put some drugs in those women's meals tonight, so that they can sleep enough." ”

"I'll do it right away." Xiao Hei said with a very firm look in his eyes.

Xiao Hei called a few times and followed him to the kitchen to get it. At supper, the women who had eaten fell asleep, and Xiao Hei and a number of people tied up all the women and threw them into the firewood room.

Xiao Hei looked around the house, tried to see if the windows and doors of the house were tight enough, and made sure that they were correct before leaving. After falling asleep, Xiao Hei slept relatively lightly, and he knew that he couldn't sleep too deeply at this time.

The people standing guard in the middle of the night came to wake up many people, and Xiao Hei immediately got up and picked up the submachine gun and the general short knife next to him when he heard the movement.

Zhu Ming was meditating, and when he heard this, he got up and took a book and went to the city gate.

Shadow One and Xiao Hei kept shooting at the front with dozens of people, and the enemy didn't seem to show weakness, and the gunfire never stopped.
