Chapter 18: The Bandits Are Coming!
Night falls quickly, and the moon hanging in the sky is getting rounder and rounder, proving that the day of the Mid-Autumn Festival is getting closer and closer.
Li Anyi and Lin Xue'er did not dislike the mess on the ground, they sat directly on the ground, admiring the beautiful night, and chatting a few words from time to time.
The moonlight sprinkled on Lin Xue'er's body, illuminating her smile, her slightly round face full of collagen, and some honest smiles all revealed the temperament of her little jasper.
Li Anyi's index finger moved slightly, and suddenly, he pulled Lin Xue'er over, tightly wrapped his left hand around her small waist, and hugged her into his arms.
Lin Xue'er 'ah', her body stiffened suddenly, and then quickly softened, burying her blushing little face in Li Anyi's arms.
In Brother Anyi's arms, it's so warm, so comfortable, so like, so shy......
Xiao Bai raised its big wolf head and glanced at the two of them, and quickly put it down again.
After a long while, Li Anyi's gentle and jade-like voice suddenly sounded: "Girl, let's move to Huai'an Mansion, okay?" ”
"Moving to Huai'an Mansion? Why? ”
Lin Xue'er raised her head from Li Anyi's arms, her bright big eyes with deep incomprehension and doubt.
Li Anyi scratched her little nose, and said as a matter of course: "Of course, it is to have a better house to live in, and living in Huai'an Mansion is convenient no matter what you do." ”
Lin Xue'er hesitated and said: "Having said that, it will cost a lot of money to live in Huai'an Mansion, Brother An Yi, our family has so much money?" ”
Li Anyi flicked her smooth forehead once: "Silly girl, did you forget?" Didn't you just hide five hundred taels of silver yesterday? ”
"But, but ......"
Lin Xue'er was still a little reluctant, she wanted to keep the five hundred taels of silver, it was very expensive to participate in the imperial examination, although Brother An Yi successfully persuaded her not to participate in next year's township examination two days ago, but what if Brother An Yi regretted it later? In the end, she still hopes that Brother An Yi will participate in the imperial examination......
"Don't do it, this matter is decided!" , Li Anyi said extremely toughly.
This year's weather is unusually cold, I don't know how many times it will be cold in winter, how can this simple thatched house withstand the erosion of the cold wind, he doesn't want to shiver with the girl under the quilt when the time comes.
......
A few days passed, and at noon that day, Li Anyi moved out of his recliner again, basking in the warm sun in the yard, while Xiaobai was lying beside him, rubbing Li Anyi's trouser legs with a wolf's head from time to time.
After bandaging its wounds last time, and getting along in the past few days, the relationship between a man and a wolf can be said to have improved by leaps and bounds, increasing day by day.
Comfortable and comfortable time, God obviously doesn't want Li Anyi to enjoy it for long......
After a while, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves and shouts of killing outside, followed by cries......
I couldn't help but chuckle heavily in my heart, and a thick uneasiness suddenly came to mind, Li Anyi quickly got up from the recliner and cautiously poked his head out of the door.
At this moment, Xiafeng Village has encountered the biggest crisis in history.
A dozen bandits, armed with long knives and riding horses, suddenly broke into the peaceful village, and the thieves did everything they could, ignoring the pleading of the villagers, and seized the food and money they had left to survive; Ignoring the screams and resistance of the women, they were plundered onto their horses; Ignoring the men's begging and resistance, he slashed them to the ground with a knife...... Crying, screaming, and pleading.
What frightened Li Anyi was that there were two hideous-looking thieves walking in the direction of their house with long knives, they had just come out of the house of the second aunt next door, each carrying a bag of things, the only thing that could make Li Anyi feel at ease was that there was no blood on their knives, and the second aunt should be fine......
Not daring to think about it, Li Anyi hurriedly withdrew his head and closed the door of the courtyard tightly.
What to do? What to do? Li Anyi anxiously paced in the yard, he would definitely not be able to beat, he would not be able to run, and he could not run on two legs on four legs!
Li Anyi was so anxious that his eyes were red.
"Woo ......"
At this time, Xiaobai called Li Anyi softly a few times.
Li Anyi stopped abruptly, looked at Xiaobai, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
How could I forget! We still have Xiaobai!
Boom...... Click......
The two thieves kicked the door of the courtyard fiercely, and burst in with a sinister smile, and saw a young man dressed as a scholar looking at them with a smile on his face, as if he was waiting for them to arrive.
What's the situation? The two thieves looked at each other, a little confused.
One of the one-eyed thieves couldn't help it, and stepped forward directly, put the long knife in his hand on Li Anyi's neck, and said viciously: "Boy, hurry up and hand over all the silver and food to Lao Tzu, otherwise Lao Tzu will kill you immediately!" ”
"Two masters, the food and silver have already been prepared, you wait a minute, I will go and get it to you."
Li Anyi smiled, carefully avoiding the knife on his neck, this is not a joke, this knife is extremely sharp at a glance, and if you are not careful, you will be cut in the neck.
The one-eyed thief looked at Li Anyi's back with some surprise: "This scholar is different, smart enough, unlike those people who are stupid."
"That's right, that's right", the bald bandit on the side echoed in style.
After a while, Li Anyi walked out of the house, carrying two bags of things, one large and one small, the big one was grain, and the small one was a few pieces of broken silver and some copper coins.
"Two masters, give."
The one-eyed thief flipped the small bag, and a hint of satisfaction flashed: "Boy, even if you still know each other, Lao Tzu spared your life if he showed mercy today."
"Bald, go!"
"The two uncles go slowly."
"Brother Anyi, what happened? Why is it so noisy, is it a guest? ”
At this time, Lin Xue'er rubbed her eyes and walked out of the room with sleepy eyes, she was so tired that she couldn't help but go to the bed to take a nap, but it didn't take long for a noise to come outside, so she wanted to come out to see what was going on.
Li Anyi's heart sank suddenly, and he said secretly: It's not good!
Sure enough, the two thieves suddenly heard the female voice and stopped, turned around, and saw that it was a delicate beautiful girl, and their eyes instantly straightened.
"Damn, I really stepped on shit luck today, and I actually let Lao Tzu meet such a delicate beauty, and today is destined to be cool."
"One-eyed, you used to be the first to get on, but this time it's my turn."
"Ugly, bald, you want to be beautiful, today Lao Tzu is still the first to go."
"Little beauty, I'm coming, ...... you"
As he spoke, the one-eyed bandit walked towards Lin Xue'er with colored eyes.
At this moment, Lin Xue'er had already sobered up, and she was suddenly very frightened, and the whole person hid behind Li Anyi's back, her small hands tightly grabbed the corners of Li Anyi's clothes, and she didn't dare to look at the one-eyed bandit who was getting closer and closer.
Li Anyi patted her little hand, then looked at the one-eyed bandit and showed a flattering smile: "This uncle, this is my ......"
The one-eyed thief interrupted directly with extreme impatience: "Boy, get out of the way!"
"Uncle, everything is negotiable", Li Anyi continued to curry favor.
The one-eyed thief's gaze at Li Anyi changed from impatience to danger: "Boy, don't you understand people's words, Lao Tzu told you to get out, you can get out of here, otherwise I will chop you directly now!"
Li Anyi's face was straight, he withdrew his flattery, and looked at the one-eyed thief with a serious face: "So it's not negotiable?"
The sudden change in Li Anyi's face made the one-eyed thief slightly stunned.
"Since that's the case, then don't blame me for being polite", Li Anyi showed a regretful look.
The one-eyed thief suddenly sneered, and said contemptuously: "Hahaha, it's up to you? Come on, come on, show Uncle Ben how to be polite. ”
"No, it's the one behind you," Li Anyi pointed behind him.
"Behind me?"
The one-eyed bandit turned his head in confusion, and was suddenly frightened!
I saw that behind him, at some point, a silver-white giant wolf as big as a calf was staring at him.
How could there be such a big wolf!!
The one-eyed bandit is horrified!
"Xiaobai, do it!"
The scholar's understated voice sounded, followed by an extremely miserable scream.
"Ahh
