The next day.

The sun is setting in the west.

Wen Cai was lying in the courtyard.

Not far away, the roosters were foraging for food scattered on the ground, as well as large fat worms in the cracks of the ground.

Since this morning, he has lived a short free life, no one calls him to get up, urges him to feed the chickens, clean, eat, drink and Lazar in Yizhuang, and life is not too beautiful.

Because Master, Senior Brother Meng, and Qiusheng all moved to Baizhuang temporarily, beware of those left-handed horse thieves.

He was the only one who was left to watch the house.

"It's so comfortable, if only it could go on like this." Wen Cai pillowed his arm and couldn't help but sigh.

Eat: There is a flock of chickens in Yizhuang, the rice tank is half full, there is bacon hanging on the beams of the house, there is a well in the courtyard, and there are various seasonal vegetables in the backyard......

Living: There are many rooms in Yizhuang, and now it is summer, and young people are hot, and it is okay to sleep on the ground all night, not to mention rattan chairs, quilts, and beds.

……

This is the life he desires.

As for the safety issue, Meng Fan and Uncle Jiu had already considered it, the former told him where the birth gate of the formation was, how to open it in case of danger, and carved a wooden card to inject a breath to avoid being injured by mistake.

The latter told Wen Cai that if he encountered any thorny problems, he would immediately run to the room where the ancestor was enshrined, and at the same time shout: Master Zu helps.

Moreover, in recent times, Yizhuang is not open to the public, if there is anything that is life-threatening, go to Baizhuang near Renjia Town.

Because Uncle Jiu, Meng Fan and the others are ready to live there for a long time, beware of the arrogant horse thieves, until they all arrive at the eucalyptus, or ambush them.

After all, the other party has already made a war letter, and bluntly said that he will come here.

"Senior brother...... Could it be their plan to divert the tiger from the mountain? Ah Wei took off his earthy yellow uniform, put on a linen-colored short, and pinned a firewood knife to his waist, and said a little worriedly.

Looking at the slightly bustling village streets, Meng Fan knew that this corresponded to the plot of the movie-

A long street, which is regarded as a commercial area, followed by various houses, can be regarded as the sub-center of Renjia Town, which can be compared with some backward counties.

"Probably not."

Meng Fan replied to Ah Wei, seeing that he was still not at ease, he added: "Besides, the county seat is so big, villages, towns, farms, we have no skills, rather than bumping around like a headless fly, it is better to stay in Baizhuang." ”

"That's right."

After observing the terrain, Uncle Nine spoke: "Whether these horse thieves plan to make money or want to kill people, there is no reason to let go of the more prosperous Renjia Town. ”

"Understood, Renjia Town is surrounded by water on many sides, and there are barren suburbs and mountains blocking it, the only shortcut to enter Renjia Town is to take it from here."

Ah Wei suddenly realized.

Then, he looked at the younger brother around him, who was also dressed as a local villager, and instructed:

"Did you hear that? Hurry up and inform the villagers to gather at the inn at night and hide in them all, which is also convenient for the captain to protect! ”

"Yes." The team members who wore armbands to identify themselves nodded their heads.

Clang! Bang Bang!

Blacksmith's shop.

The dark-skinned man wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, and the basket on the ground was full of machetes and wood knives.

"Fifty, it's finally done, send it to the suburban yamen, alas, don't these uncles usually hold foreign guns? How do you remember to use a knife. ”

"Hey, I've heard that foreign guns are powerful, but they are limited to ten steps away, just like a hidden weapon, and within ten steps, it's still a machete!"

"It makes sense, this kind of thing is only effective if it is far away."

"Whatever, just give the yamen money."

Since guns can't be used recently, Ah Wei and the others decided to build all kinds of weapons, mainly firewood knives, which are cheap, solid and resistant to cutting.

"Hey, are we ready for something?"

A young man from the militia group passed in front of the shop, glanced at the ground, and asked.

And the owner of the blacksmith shop threw down the hammer, and said angrily: "Qi Huo, I am discussing sending someone to the yamen." ”

"Well, hurry up."

"Don't stay at home tonight, go to the inn on the street, there is strength in the crowd, lest you be killed by a horse thief."

With that, he left.

It is obviously not easy to inform every household of the news before dark.

Outskirts.

Ah Wei and Qiusheng led the militia Qingzhuang who came from various villages to support them, and arranged traps under the command of Meng Fan.

However, unlike the very simple and primitive mechanism in the original play, this time a new element is used-

Taoism.

Because of a large forest outside the village, Meng Fan decided to take the main earthquake and Xun.

Earthquake: The hexagram is thunder, the five elements belong to wood, and it is located in the east in the gossip of the day after tomorrow.

Xun: The hexagram is the wind, the five elements belong to the wood, and the acquired gossip is located in the southeast.

Rows of simple sealed wooden stakes were erected, and the orientation was in line with the requirements of the Five Elements Bagua.

In addition, all kinds of French flags made of fine cloth mobilize the elements within a radius of nearly ten miles.

There are mountains, there are waters, there are forests.

Earth, water, and wood are the three elements that are particularly active.

"Everything is ready, only the horse thief is owed."

Listening to Meng Fan's whispers, Ah Wei subconsciously boasted that he felt that the sense of security he could gain by staying by this senior brother's side was no less than staying by Uncle Jiu's side.

Qiusheng is helpless.

Now, he can not only use talismans to cure evil spirits, such as Heavenly Thunder Break, Meditation Mantra, these low-level Maoshan spells, but the effect is a little unsatisfactory.

Because of this, if the enemy is too tricky, it will be difficult for you to play a key role.

In fact, Meng Fan, who had specially asked Qiusheng about his cultivation not long ago, felt that he was a bit like Jin Maiji, a fledgling junior brother at that time.

Of course, the mana stock in the body is almost there.

It's just that the lightning strike wood amulet, the Maoshan evil jade pendant, the three-hundred-year-old lightning strike wood peach wood sword (given by the ninth uncle), and the Samadhi true fire gold talisman、......

The superposition of all kinds of magic weapons, coupled with his already good skills, in fact, Qiusheng should not be underestimated.

"Let's go back and wait first, leave two people to guard the mountain, and I will also set up an induction formation for reconnaissance."

"Quick, do as my brother instructs."

"Big bull, aquatic, you are responsible for observing the enemy situation and ventilating the news."

Ah Wei casually nodded to the two.

Without waiting for them to refuse, Meng Fan sent a pile of talismans over, although it was not a powerful golden talisman, but the material was extraordinary, made of high-grade cinnabar, high-grade yellow rune paper, and the essence blood of a big rooster.

With something beside them, and the obscenity from Captain Ah Wei, the two of them stopped talking and decided to stay on a low hill nearby so that they could see the movement farther away.

Night fell quietly.

Villager Protection Regiment, Baizhuang Station.

The candle flame flickered in the corridor, no matter how the night breeze blows, the light still does not diminish.

Meng Fan changed into the horned lion's head mountain armor, shook his body twice, and did not feel any discomfort, and then carried the canopy ruler that had not been used for a long time, depicting the sun and moon, the Big Dipper, and the divine canopy ruler in his hand.

Seeing this appearance, Uncle Nine nodded secretly in his heart, and became more and more envious of Senior Brother Qianhe.
