Although Tang Qinglan said that she could endure it, but let her make shoes alone and keep the year until dawn, Zhu Ruru was a little unbearable.

She thought for a while, simply went out of the room, called out Meng Huaiyan, who had entered the next room, and asked him if he would like to play chess with her.

Meng Huaiyan naturally wouldn't refuse, and nodded down, "Okay." ”

So, the two played Go in the hall outside.

As the night grew darker and thicker, the two were fighting fiercely, when suddenly a rapid gong sounded outside.

"Bang Bang!"

A crisp sound broke the silence of the night.

Why did the gong sound all of a sudden?

Zhu Ruru's brows frowned slightly.

This kind of gong sound is all too familiar to these people.

In the past, when I was on the road to exile, every time I had to go on the road, or there was some danger or something, this gong would sound at the right time.

Even now, a few months later, everyone still has palpitations when they hear this gong.

"If so, what's going on out there? How could someone suddenly strike a gong? ”

Tang Qinglan heard the sound of the gong and walked out of the back room, her face full of shock and doubt.

Tonight is Chinese New Year's Eve, every family is keeping the New Year at home, why is there a sudden sound of gongs?

"I don't know, I'll go out with Ayan to have a look."

Zhu Ruru threw down the chess pieces in his hand, pulled Meng Huaiyan and went out.

There are already a lot of people outside who have come out to see the situation.

"What's going on? How could someone suddenly strike a gong? ”

"I don't know, it's possible that it's officers and soldiers."

"How could the officers and soldiers suddenly come to our village at this time to ring the gong? Nothing is going on, is it? ”

"Who knows! For the New Year, I hope nothing bad will happen, so that we can spend the New Year in peace! ”

Everyone muttered and walked forward until they reached the entrance of the village.

They soon saw a soldier with a gong pounding there.

"Sir, but what happened? Why are you striking the gong here so late? ”

It was Meng Jianye who was questioning, and when he heard the sound of the gong, he also ran out to see the situation as soon as possible.

The soldier glanced at Meng Jianye, didn't reply, and continued to beat the gong, and after a while, he saw that there were more people, and then he finally stopped.

He faced the crowd.

He said loudly: "Listen, a group of pirates are coming to the sea, although our people are trying to intercept them at sea, but there are many people coming this time, I'm afraid there are thousands of people, we may not be able to stop them." ”

"If you don't stop them, once they come ashore, your villages will probably bear the brunt."

"We came here to remind everyone to take precautions in advance."

"Of course, it's best to get to the town, or to the mountains!"

As soon as the soldier's words fell, there was an uproar in the crowd.

"Plagued, today is Chinese New Year's Eve! How did they come and harass at this time? This is making us have a bad year in a row! ”

"What year is it going to be? Let's hurry back and pack up our things, thousands of pirates, officers and soldiers will definitely not be able to stop them! We're going to have to find a place to hide. ”

"Do you have to run? The pirates didn't hurt anyone last time, will the pirates hurt people this time? ”

Some people don't really want to leave the village, and they are lucky.

Mainly, because of the recent Chinese New Year, they have bought a lot of things at home, and when they go out to hide, what if everything at home is ruined by the pirates?

Last time, the barbarians took over their village and ruined all their belongings.

During this time, it was not easy to save some more things, and if it was ruined again, their family probably wanted to die.

To be honest, Zhu Ruru doesn't really want to run.

Last time, the barbarians also ruined a lot of things in their house, especially the vegetable garden and water purification device in the backyard, it was very hard to get it, okay!

The soldier glanced at everyone and said expressionlessly: "I advise everyone not to be lucky, the last time the Haikou did not hurt anyone, it does not mean that this time the Haikou will not hurt anyone." You better go and hide with your family! ”

Under the persuasion of the soldiers, many people were reluctant, but eventually went home to pack their things.

Zhu Ruru frowned, raised his eyes and asked the soldier, "Official, do you know how long your people can stop them?" ”

The soldier looked at Zhu Ruru, but he didn't hide it, and said, "It is estimated that it will not be more than half a stick of incense, so you should hurry up and pack up your things!" ”
