Chapter 13: Beaten

Hearing the old lady's shout, seven or eight people rushed in outside the door, both men and women, all about fifty or sixty years old, most of them in the clothes of poor farmers, dressed in old linen clothes and coarse linen shoes. Each man carried in his hand all kinds of farm tools, including a hammer, a shovel, a flat pole, and a burning stick.

The first old man with a short white beard came over and asked the old lady with concern, "Second aunt, what's wrong?" ”

The old lady who was called the second aunt pointed at Xiao Liu, and said tremblingly, "These guys have secretly drunk my family's wine!" He also splattered to kill someone, scared me to death! ”

After hearing this, the old man stepped forward and asked sharply at the group of people who were sitting in tow, "Dare to come and steal something?" Say! Who are you? ”

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xiao Liu put away his arrogant face just now, and said with a low smile: "Hehe! Misunderstand! It's all a misunderstanding! We didn't steal! Ask this old woman, she was tired from walking on the road, and it was our brother who was taken back to the village by her! ”

The old man looked back at the second aunt, but saw that the second aunt shook her head and muttered in a low voice: "I don't know!" I don't recognize them! ”

Seeing that the second aunt didn't admit it, Xiao Liu hurriedly shouted: "You old woman! actually denied it, this is to cross the river and tear down the bridge?! If it weren't for us carrying you over today, you might have died now!! ”

The second aunt said angrily, "You rabbit cub, you dare to arrange my old woman indiscriminately." When have I seen you guys, you nonsense! Bah! ”

"You..."Xiao Liu was about to argue again.

The old man interrupted, "Alright! Don't talk nonsense! Tell me honestly, what the hell are you doing? Why is it here? ”

Xiao Liu whispered helplessly: "Uncle! We have been deceived too! Isn't this tied up here? ”

"Oh? How did you deceive you? Who binds you here? The old man asked curiously.

Xiao Liu wanted to cry without tears, and complained bitterly, "A kid named Lan Feng told our boss that the wine brewed here was good, so he brought us here to drink. I didn't think that guy put medicine in the wine, poured our medicine, and kidnapped our homemaker! ”

Hearing this, the old man glanced at the people around him and showed an imperceptible smile.

"That's right!" Xiao Liu suddenly said loudly: "Before we came here, we saw an old man here, saying that he made all the wine, and he had been making wine here for decades. Hum! I suspect that he is in league with the Lan Feng boy, that the two of them conspired to overthrow us and then kidnap our master! ”

Unexpectedly, the second aunt cried out after hearing this, beating her chest while crying and saying, "Alas! Oh, my old man! You've been gone for so many years, why don't you come back now and don't come to meet me, an old woman! ”

The old lady pointed to the little six people tied to the ground, and then cried: "These rabbit cubs arranged for you to kidnap them. You say you're a dead old man, what are you doing kidnapping a big old man?? Are you bored down there alone, coming up to talk to someone? Alas! O my wretched old man! ”

Hearing these words, Xiao Liu was terrified and speechless.

The old man with a short white beard was horizontal, glared angrily at Xiao Liu, and said sharply: "You scoundrel! Dare to talk nonsense, my second uncle has been dead for more than ten years, how can you see it. In order to steal these few sips of wine, you made up some shameful excuses and poked my second aunt's pain! See if I don't kill you! As he spoke, he raised his pole and made a gesture to fight.

Xiao Liu struggled to dodge, but there was nowhere to hide, so he hurriedly begged: "Misunderstanding! Misunderstand! Don't fight! Don't, don't..."

Seeing that the flat pole and hammer were about to fall down, Guapi, who was tied behind Xiao Liu, shouted: "We are from the Earth Tiger Gang, I see who dares to fight!" ”

This shout seemed to have worked, and the few farm tools that were waved down stopped in mid-air, and the old man holding the flat pole was stunned for a moment, and asked in disbelief: "What is it?" ”

Guapi raised his voice and shouted, "Earth Tiger Gang! We're from the Ground Tigers! The forests and roads in this area are all points we step on! There is a lot of blood on our hands!! You'd better think clearly!! ”

"Are you those bandits in Zhu'er Mountain?" The old man asked.

Guapi smiled a little proudly, "Hehe! I'm scared! If you know each other, hurry up and untie Lao Tzu! ”。

Seeing that the old man was a little hesitant, Xiao Liu hurriedly echoed, "Yes, yes, yes!" We're from the Ground Tigers! ”

"Bang", and the flat pole finally hit Xiao Liu's head.

The old man said fiercely: "It's you bandits who are fighting!" He did something hurtful! How dare you scare me?! Grandpa has grown so big, he hasn't been afraid of it! Guys, teach me a hard lesson to these guys who don't have long faces!! ”

Then, there are the ups and downs of hammers, shovels, poles, and burning sticks.....

A burst of screams and howls burst out of the air, startling a flock of birds in the forest outside the house.....
