Chapter 40: The Mountain Bandits Descend the Mountain
After a day's journey, not to mention the old and young women and children, even those young and strong young men were a little unbearable.
Lao Zhao's family was no exception, they were all tired and lay down, but thinking of what the village chief said, Mrs. Zhang shuddered.
Hurriedly got up and yelled at her daughter-in-law, who was some distance away from her.
"Why don't you hurry up and collect firewood, do you want to starve your mother to death? Remember to pick up more and send them to the Feng family. ”
"Mother, tell my sister-in-law and younger siblings to come with me, I can't get so many ...... alone"
The woman trembled and discussed with Mrs. Zhang.
"What's it called, you asked the second child to accompany you, who will cook when you go? Do you want my old wife to do it, aren't you afraid of being thundered by the sky? ”
"Mother, I see." The woman resisted the tears that were about to fall, turned and ran away.
She didn't understand that she had been married into Lao Zhao's family for so long, and she had always respected her mother-in-law over the years.
Why can't you please it once.
Some people! No matter how good you are, there is a reason to find fault with you.
……
In the end, the old Zhao family still collected the firewood that needed to be given to the Feng family as agreed.
After dinner, Feng Jiuyou glanced at Feng Chenyi, who was still in good spirits and was cultivating, then lay down in his own quilt and began to sleep.
A pregnant woman should get enough sleep, she is a good mother.
In the middle of the night, Feng Jiuyou suddenly opened his eyes, and the sky was faint and starry at the moment.
She stood on a large rock and looked away with a cold gaze.
On the hillside eight hundred meters away from the resting place, hundreds of people gathered.
It's just that when I see them, they really don't look like mountain bandits, they are all dressed in tatters, although they are all men, but all of them are yellow and thin.
Mountain bandits in the real sense are not like them, they are generally more fierce, with fierce eyes and a bloodthirsty smell on their bodies.
And this group of people is like a makeshift formation of refugees fleeing the famine, and it is more like a gangster among those refugees.
Feng Jiu thought about the time, and the group had already moved.
"Brothers! Get ready to get your hands dirty. The leader of the mountain bandits gave an order.
His younger brothers followed, machetes in hand, and slowly moved towards the resting ground.
"Third brother, wake up."
Feng Jiuyou pushed Feng Chenyi with his hand, Feng Chenyi was awakened, and was about to yell out when Feng Jiuyou covered his mouth.
"Someone is coming this way, you go and inform the vigil, and go and wake up the villagers in batches, and gather the old and young women and children together.
Leave some young adults to protect them and hide in the woods next to them, and tell them to move quietly. The rest of the young men were brought here to prepare to defend themselves against the enemy. ”
Since you have chosen to flee, you must be prepared to lose your life.
"Okay."
Feng Chenyi didn't hesitate, the wind was under his feet, like an arrow off the string, and he rushed out in a blink of an eye.
The movement on their side still alarmed Feng Shuo and the others, and the Feng family gathered towards Feng Jiuyou's side one by one.
"What's going on?"
"Someone's coming this way, quick, big guy, go to the woods."
Time was pressing, Feng Jiuyou didn't explain too much, took the lead in picking up Liulang who was sleeping beside her, and walked towards the forest.
"You, be careful."
Feng Shuo was startled when he saw Feng Jiuyou's movements, and he didn't dare to shout, so it was worth hurriedly running up to pick up Liulang.
"Dad, I'm fine."
"You're still pregnant, why are you okay?"
Feng Shuo took Rokuro and didn't forget to complain.
Feng Jiuyou had no choice but to follow behind, she had already used her ability to protect her stomach.
Now it's no problem for her to fight for hundreds of rounds.
