Chapter 79: Harvest, horse thieves attack
It's also Xiannan City.
Chenjia Village.
However, in Chenjia Village now, the painting style is a bit strange.
A group of benevolent members gathered together, and some of them looked speechlessly at the little female weasels who were doing rough work in the distance.
They were dressed in the noblest silk and satin, and even had a silk scarf in their hands, but they did the most tiring work.
And crying while doing it.
He was covered in mud and dust.
The weasel was still on their side, spurring them on.
The members of the Benevolence Association did not know how to describe this picture.
Some gangsters couldn't help but ask: "Brother Hu, didn't you say that this is a monster that kills people without blinking?" What's going on now? β
Hu Dingyong was also confused.
It's like you ask me, who do I ask?
Chen Jinlan clasped her hands on her shoulders and stared at the weasel for a long time, her eyes narrowing slightly: "Ding Yong is right. This weasel is indeed murderous without blinking. I could feel that contempt in him. It's just that have you paid attention to listening? From time to time, this weasel will mumble a damn demon in his mouth, I don't believe you can still pit me?
The demon traitor in his mouth should be the tiger demon that Ding Yong said. β
Suddenly, someone asked: "Brother Chen, do you mean to say that this weasel demon was forced to come to our village to do good deeds because he was persecuted by the tiger demon?" β
Chen Jinlan nodded.
Everyone was lost in thought.
So what's the situation now?
A youkai who was forced by another youkai to come to a human village to do good?
Is there really such an outrageous thing in this world?
Immediately afterwards, another member of the gang worried: "Brother Chen, what should we do now?" Since this weasel demon is not sincere, will he suddenly burst out and kill people? β
When the words fell, everyone's faces became even more ugly.
Because this is also the time when everyone is worried.
In modern times, there is a tiger that intrudes into your life, eating, drinking, living and traveling with you, but you never know when this tiger will be animalistic.
Chen Jinlan thought seriously for a moment: "It seems that we really need to visit the tiger demon this time." Ding Yong, after we have defended the horse thieves who are coming from this season's harvest, I will go to Xuanyang City with you. β
Hu Dingyong's eyes lit up, and then nodded heavily.
β¦β¦
Time flies, time flies.
Spring goes and summer comes.
The people of the world finally ushered in their first harvest of the year.
The people of Che Chi Kingdom are very lucky this time, and the sky is beautiful and ushered in a bumper harvest. One acre of land is enough to harvest nearly four stones.
It's also good that this season is beautiful.
Otherwise, they have experienced two seasons of drought, and if there is another accident this season, then they really can't survive.
However, a bumper harvest is only the first hurdle that farmers in Chechi need to go through.
If they want to live a good life, they still need to go through many tests.
The second test is a cross-disguised horse thief from a soldier from another country.
Today is the day of the harvest.
The peasants really wanted the government to come here to collect taxes as soon as possible.
Because as long as the tax is paid, even if they are robbed of a part of the harvest by horse thieves, the loss will not be so heavy.
But this idea is undoubtedly extravagant.
Whether it is the government or the landlord, they will often wait for the horse thieves to leave before they come to cut them fiercely.
Especially Chenjia Village.
The government never sent officers and soldiers to defend them against horse thieves.
Over the years, it has always been the brothers of the Benevolence Society who have been on the front line against horse thieves.
Let's ask, how can a small folk gang not despair when it knows that these so-called horse thieves turned out to be soldiers sent by major powers to rob grain?
Therefore, when the brothers of the Benevolence and Righteousness Society learned the truth.
Everyone gradually lost confidence, lost their fighting spirit, and lost their ideals.
How can they alone resist the invasion of the major powers, and the court that has done nothing?
Today is the day of the harvest.
At the same time, it is also the day when horse thieves attack.
Nearly 200 horse thieves lined up early in a place that was not too far away from Chenjia Village, nor too close, and waited for a long time.
They were on horseback, talking and laughing, not at all like they were about to face a big battle.
On the contrary, the benevolence and righteousness will be here, and one by one it will be like facing a great enemy.
After all, they are only more than 40 people.
If it weren't for the fact that among these more than 40 people, all of them were martial arts experts, it is estimated that they would not even have a chance to resist.
But even so, everyone still clenched their weapons and held on to the edge of Chenjia Village.
Both sides have actually seen each other.
But everyone had a very tacit understanding, as if they had negotiated, and there was no action.
Instead, they silently waited for the farmers to harvest the rice.
I saw that the rice had been harvested.
The leader of the other party couldn't help but control the horse to take a few steps forward, and teased: "Brother Chen! Do you still resist stubbornly today? You should know exactly who we are! You have no chance of winning against us! It's better to belong to us as soon as possible, and when he is unified in the future, everyone may still be good brothers! β
Yes, the other party's team leader is also an old acquaintance with Chen Jinlan.
However, it has always been a hostile relationship.
But both sides know very well that everyone is their own master, so they have never hated each other.
Chen Jinlan also mocked back: "Liu is in charge!" You don't need to worry about Chen's affairs! Chen hopes that you can unify as soon as possible! When the time comes, the common people may still be able to live a good life, at least they don't have to worry about horse thieves anymore, right?
As for now......
Oh, how can there be a reason to let horse thieves loot their fellow countrymen! If you are not afraid of death, come here! β
Seeing this, Liu Dangjia no longer dissuaded.
Turn the horse around and return to the line.
With the last rice, it was harvested and put into wooden barrels.
Both sides also went into combat mode.
Liu Dangjia's big knife was raised high, and then he swung it down, pointing at Chenjiacun: "Chongββ! β
Chen Jinlan also shouted: "Rushββ! β
Nearly two hundred cavalrymen, and nearly forty martial arts masters who used light skills, rushed towards each other like this.
The two sides soon became entangled.
Jingle Bell!
The clashing of weapons was heard incessantly.
Many members of the Society of Righteousness, after shooting down the enemy, mounted their horses and continued to fight with others.
There were also a number of horse thieves who went straight to the village and robbed the harvest.
As the battlefield heats up.
There are more and more casualties.
There are even several members of the Society of Righteousness, whose hands or feet have been cut off, and they are still fighting.
"Haoqiang!!"
"Qisheng!!"
"Junfeng!!"
"Damn! I'm fighting with you! β
With less and more, almost all the members of the Benevolence and Righteousness Association are red-eyed!
Regardless of the injuries on their bodies, they are not afraid of death!
When Chen Jinlan saw her brothers, she was afraid that she would not be able to stand it, so she gritted her teeth and yelled at Liu Dangjia: "Brother Liu! Be forgiving and forgiving! How about retreating with only one percent of the harvest this time?! β
