Sanxiao was almost midnight in the broken temple, but San'er was still full of excitement and had no sleep, dancing with his hands and dancing on the stage, which made Xiaoer and Ah Da laugh.

When he approached, he saw a light in the temple, and he immediately stopped, and his heart was full of doubts. The temple is dilapidated and ominous, the people in the city know about it, but they don't want to come here, they only feel unlucky, few people come for many years, but now there is a bright light in the temple and can't help but wonder. Xiao Er raised his hand and "shh

I saw a bonfire lit in the courtyard, and eight beggars in ragged clothes were sitting around them, eating a roasted wild dog. The person in the center also took a huge gourd and drank a few sips from time to time, and the others looked full of greed and secretly swallowed it.

The beggar in the center put down the gourd and touched the greasy on his mouth, raised his hand and hit the back of the beggar on the left side of the head and shouted a little irritably: "Leper, didn't you say that you could come back at night, it's almost the third watch, why haven't you come back yet?"

The leper was eating dog meat, and suddenly he was slapped and choked instantly. After a violent cough eased his senses, he grinned and said with a big mouth leaking black and yellow teeth: "Don't worry, I've inquired about it, these boys are all at work now, and they come back every night, and they may have encountered something on the road today." ”

The beggar, who was called the helper, slapped him hard again, glared at a pair of triangular eyes and shouted: "If you encounter something, what the hell is going on, if you can't get the money today, you will cripple your other leg, go and get some firewood, this ghost weather is cold before the beginning of winter." ”

The leper rubbed his aching head and did not dare to speak, and got up to get firewood.

After hearing this, Xiao Er, who was lying in the grass, saw clearly that it was a leper through the bright light, and immediately understood the reason. Lightly returned to the outside of the temple and found Erxiao and frowned lightly: "It's a leper, I raised my legs, and I found a few beggars, and I wanted to rob some money." ”

San'er took the lead in complaining: "Last time, I should have asked Ah Da to break both of his legs, and he would have bullied us again." The young man's beautiful eyes grew cold, and his cheeks bulged.

Ah Dasi pondered and said in a deep voice: "How many people are there in them, do they have iron tools?"

Xiao Er replied: "There are eight people in total, and there should be no iron weapons, but the leader may have a dagger and a short knife or something." ”

Ah Da breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Then let's go in and see what they can do?"

Xiao Er thought for a while and said, "First go to the wellhead and take Master Nian's big iron piece, I will see that it will be difficult to escape a fight today." ”

"Ah Da, there are many of them, if they can't get along, they will start first, and they will be heavy-handed. San'er, you elf, don't be crazy like before. ”

After hearing this, the two children nodded their heads, and came to the bluestone old well in the northwest corner, the iron next to the wellhead embeds the things in the shape of the ground, and the two arms of Ah Da are called Li Shengsheng to pull out from the ground, the iron piece is about five feet long, the shape is like a knife like a sword, there is no decoration on it, the rust is stained, the edge of the blade is very blunt, very rough, but it is extremely heavy, and the young man is full of confidence when he waves a few times.

San'er secretly came to the stove where the teenagers were cooking and took out a kitchen knife, and a pair of peach blossom eyes were full of fierceness.

Xiao Er grabbed the spear that he usually used to fish in the creek, said that it was a spear but there was no spear head, but he just sharpened the end of the wooden pole, looked up at a pile of fire in the middle of the night, smiled lightly, and his chest, which was slightly stiff in the past, instantly straightened up, and walked towards the beggars.

The leper picked up some firewood and put it into the fire, and suddenly three figures appeared from the darkness around him, and he shouted "ah" in startle, and raised his hand and pointed at three small points. When the beggar leader saw this, he stood up, raised his foot, kicked the leper to the ground, and scolded: "Startled, I was so scared that I was scared, look at your little cowardice." The rest of the beggars laughed when they saw the leper's embarrassed appearance.

The leader pointed at the three little ones and asked, "Is this the boy?"

The leper came to his senses and took a closer look at the three pees and said, "Helper, that's, it's this kid." ”

The leader greeted his subordinates: "Brothers, come and see who is bullying my leper brother." ”

The beggars picked up the sticks in the fire to illuminate the surroundings, and the leader pointed to the three little ones and shouted, "Last year, you discounted my leper brother's legs?"

Xiao Er smiled as usual: "Yes, it's discounted." Leper, does it still hurt?"

When the leader heard this, his triangular eyes glared angrily and said: "The kid is so arrogant, the leper is now in my gang, and I will avenge him today." ”

When the beggars heard the word "revenge", they pulled out files, axes, daggers and other iron tools from their waists.

Seeing this, Xiao Er frowned and chuckled: "Oh, it turns out that the leper is your brother who is the helper, I didn't know just now, please calm the helper's anger." ”

The leader laughed fiercely when he heard this, looked at the three little ones who had weapons in their hands, and the tall young man behind the talking boy thought for a moment and said: "Although he didn't join the gang when you injured the leprosy, but since he told me today, as his brother, he has to give him a head, right?"

Xiao Er smiled and nodded yes

The leader said: "But, as the old saying goes, it is better to settle a grievance than to settle it, I heard the leper say that you were originally beggars, and now you are all working, just give my leper brother some silver, and we will settle the matter." ”

Xiao Er looked at the eight evil beggars with sharp weapons in their hands, and instantly thought about it in his heart and said: "Since the helper has intentionally taken care of things, then our brothers can't help but know how to lift, how much silver do you think?"

The leader rolled his eyes and said, "Don't rush them all at once, you have to let the water flow for a long time." ”

Picked up the gourd, took a sip of wine, squinted his triangular eyes, and said, "We are all poor people, so the three of you can take thirty taels of silver." ”

Ah Da, the three children all looked angry after hearing this. Working for more than half a year, three snacks wearing, mainly San'er's pen, ink, paper and inkstone, a few days ago I also bought two good winter jackets for the Cui family's mother and daughter, and the remaining two silver are enough for three small to buy winter clothes and quilts, I don't want to ask for as much as thirty taels.

Xiao Er patted Er Xiao lightly to signal that there was no worry, and said with a smile: "It's too much for the helper to ask for thirty taels, and I only have ten taels of silver now, do you think it's feasible?"

After hearing this, the leader saw that Xiaoer was straightforward and promised to give the silver, and said in his heart: "Ten taels is fine, it will be winter soon, first get him ten taels of winter clothes to wear, and see that they are not as ruthless as the leper said, and they will have them after a few more trips in the future." After thinking about it, he smiled and said: "Little brother is quick to talk, he is a cheerful person, I Zhang Dawu likes refreshing people, ten taels are all suffering people, and in the future, you and the leper will turn the page." ”

The leper next to him listened to his face very ugly, and it turned out that when he came earlier, he promised the leper to discount his three small legs to avenge himself, and he was forced to rob money. His eyes rolled, and he hurriedly stepped forward and whispered a few words beside the leader.

After hearing this, the leader smiled lewdly and patted the leper on the shoulder, looked up and said to Xiaoer, "I heard the leper say that there is a little girl among you, isn't it?"

Xiao Er instantly put away his smile, and said with a cold face: "There is one." ”

The leader shook his head and said: "Oh, this old brother just organized the beggars in the east of the city to set up this beggar gang, and now there is nothing missing, just a little helper's wife, you see that it is good to promise that little girl to me." After saying that, he smiled lewdly, and the beggars on the side laughed and agreed.

Behind Xiao Er, the young man's peach eyes were full of evil energy, Ah Da's chest rose and fell violently, his tiger eyes were scarlet, and the green tendons of his palms lying on the iron plates were bulging.

Xiao Er laughed as if he heard the biggest joke of time, leaning forward and closing back.

After a moment, he stopped laughing, and slowly walked to the leader with a wooden pole and a gun, and said with a smile: "My sister can make the helper look at her blessings, and it will be enough for the helper to take it away in a while." ”

When the leader heard this, he laughed, and was happy to have this unexpected joy, but also laughed at the spinelessness of the teenagers, and said, "Okay, little brother, where is this girl?"

Xiao Er raised his hand behind the leader and chuckled, "No, is it standing behind you?"

The leader looked back suspiciously, but saw that there was no girl in the pitch black behind him.

Xiao Er saw the leader turn his head, and instantly raised the spear and stabbed it at the neck, just like when he went to the creek to fish for Ji'er, fast, accurate, ruthless, pierced the spear into more than three inches and quickly pulled out, only to see that the leader's neck penetrated the throat from the side and appeared two blood holes "Gollum" "Gollum" spurted blood outward, and the blood sprayed and splashed the young man's face, with the angry and distorted face, shining in the firelight, like a hellish Shura.

Ah Da, San'er knew that he was going to do it when he saw Xiaoer, and they had fought side by side countless times over the years, and they had a tacit understanding with each other. At the moment when Xiao Er raised his spear and stabbed it, Ah Da's five-foot-long piece of iron slashed down at the nearest beggar's shoulder, and the beggar was still laughing and was split by the iron piece from his shoulder to his waist, and the corpse was split on the spot, and the blood was sprinkled on the ground and flowed into the bonfire with a "zizi" sound.

San'er raised the kitchen knife and slashed out, the beggar leaned over, the blade slashed into his shoulder more than an inch, and he screamed in pain. Seeing this, the boy raised his foot and kicked it into the crotch with all his might, and the beggar instantly fell to the ground and howled loudly.

In the flash of light, eight evil beggars, two were killed and one was seriously injured.
