Chapter 26: Misfortune Strikes
The only advantage of baking a fire in summer is probably that it will be too hot to sleep!
He Xiaoting thought so, and saw that Brother Han had no intention of suffering from heat stroke, so she gave up her plan to persuade and closed her eyes to count the sheep.
After a day's journey, it is necessary to rest early.
It's just that this night is not destined to be a peaceful night, when the moon is hanging high in the air, there is a sudden sound of horses' hooves in the distance.
Listen intently, the movement is coming from the direction from which they came.
He Xiaoting got up, rubbed her eyes and asked softly, "It's a big night, why are you still in a hurry?"
I'm not afraid to see the road clearly and fall into the ditch.
"I guess there is an emergency," Li Chunlan guessed, she looked over worriedly, "I hope it's just passing by." ”
"Oh, it's okay," He Xiaoting comforted her cheap mother, "There are so many of us, if we are smart, we won't provoke at will." ”
Li Chunlan nodded, "That's the best." ”
Let's go on the road together, isn't it safe to see how many people there are!
He Xiaoting pursed her lips and smiled, touched the small stones full of small stones in her pocket, and secretly thought, if there is really someone who is not long-sighted, she will not be polite.
was slapped in the face in the next second.
People are riding horses, holding big knives, and when they catch up with the target, they will cut directly, and by the way, they will destroy the small shrimp on the side of the road.
The young man in the cyan short fight clung to the reins and scolded coldly while dodging, "What you want to find is me, don't hurt the innocent." ”
The black-clothed man in the lead laughed, "Who made them unlucky to meet you." ”
He Xiaoting fled into the forest with the panicked family before she put on her shoes, and when she heard such unreasonable words at the tip of her ears, she was so angry that she turned around and flew out a few stones.
Of course, instead of attacking the leader of the black-clothed man, she attacked the bad guys who chased the villagers and cut them indiscriminately.
They are all people from the same village, how can they not be saved when they see death.
"Sanya, run," He Xiaoshan, who found that his sister was gone, jumped back and dragged people into the forest.
He Xiaoting tried to stabilize her center of gravity, "Big brother, slow down, I'm saving people." ”
She had hit several people, and a few horses, and helped a lot of villagers, and with a little more effort, she might be able to drive the bad guys away.
"No, it's too late if you don't run," He Xiaoshan said breathlessly, "They have knives." ”
No matter how strong he is, he is only a six-year-old doll, where is the opponent of a man in his prime.
It's not He Xiaoshan who is cold-blooded, in this case, protecting himself is the most important thing.
"Shanzi, you run by yourself, I'll take Sanya," He Dashu chased after him from behind and took over the young girl.
He Xiaoting, "......" begging not to carry it.
Desperately entering the forest, the young man in the village, who lived by hunting, stopped, looked for the stout tree, hid behind the tree, drew his bow, and aimed the arrow at the enemy.
The others were no longer busy running for their lives, the older ones were looking for places to hide with their children and the wounded, and the younger ones were searching for weapons to ward off the enemy.
Two legs can't outrun four legs, and if you want to live, you have to resist.
He Dashu picked up the kitchen knife, Li Chunlan broke a thick branch, and He Xiaoshan and other half-grown teenagers were not to be outdone, picking up a lot of pine towers and stones.
Sometimes, small things can make a difference.
He Xiaoting was pushed up the tree by He Daya, crying and laughing, "Sister, let me down, I can help." ”
"No, you're still young," He Daya explained seriously, "as long as we don't have an accident, you won't be in danger." ”
"However, it's even more dangerous in the trees~"
If you climb a tree, you won't even have a chance to run, so it's even more dangerous!
He Daya was stunned for a moment, and felt that what the younger sister said was quite reasonable, so she hugged the person down again, found a bush and was about to stuff it in, but she didn't forget to explain, "If you really can't help it, you can run, leave us alone." ”
At critical moments, it is one that can run one.
If she wasn't worried that it would be more dangerous in the depths of the forest at night, she would have let her sister run away.
He Xiaoting couldn't help it, and directly used her strange power to pull out an arm-thick shrub, "Eldest sister, have you forgotten my strength?"
He Daya froze instantly.
Okay, I really forgot.
Realizing that the younger sister was not a pitiful little girl who needed their protection, He Daya gritted her teeth and finally let go.
He Xiaoting quickly slipped to the edge of the forest to check and found that the situation was not too bad.
The young man in Tsing Yi who was chased and killed was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and after he went out, he took the same broadsword as the black-clothed enemy and fought back, and actually destroyed many enemies.
Seeing his companions fall one by one, the leading man couldn't hold his breath anymore, and viciously threatened the little shrimps, "Stop! ”
He Xiaoting shouted while flying stones, "Stop it is for you to slaughter, and it is stupid not to resist." ”
Even if they were in danger, everyone couldn't help but laugh out loud, "That's right, we're not stupid." ”
"It's the three girls of the big tree family, right? ”
"Isn't that her!Tsk, I've never seen her talk so well before~"
After a few words, the atmosphere seemed to be a little lighter.
The leader secretly hated in his heart, and he was afraid that the task assigned by the master would not be completed, so he knew that this was the case, so he ran away and made another move.
A bunch of mud-legged people still dare to meddle in their affairs, wait, he will return sooner or later.
No matter how unwilling he was, he could only raise his voice and say, "Withdraw!"
The young man in Tsing Yi, who was covered in blood, reacted quickly, and shouted hoarsely, "You can't let them go, there will be endless troubles after leaving." ”
"It's easy to say," scolded the impulsive young man dissatisfiedly, "if it weren't for you, we wouldn't have encountered such a thing." ”
In the chaos just now, everyone was busy running for their lives, and they didn't even care about the cattle that had suffered, how could they stop the people who were galloping on horseback.
The young man in Tsing Yi gritted his teeth, "I know that I have caused you to be a burden, but the leader has a grudge and must not stay." ”
He Xiaoting was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood what it meant, and she didn't care about it anymore, so she ran wildly in the direction of the retreat of the man in black.
Everyone can pick up a life not because of strength, but because of unity, occupying a favorable position, and the underestimation of the people in black.
If the leader remembered the grudge and remembered them, it could really be said that there would be endless troubles.
Fortunately, the horse in the lead was injured, and his speed was reduced by half, He Xiaoting chased wildly, and really caught up, squinting and shooting stones at the horse's legs, successfully causing chaos.
The horses are frightened and turn on the collision mode, and it is useless to let the owner whip and scold.
Not long after, the leading man fell to the ground, was dragged out hundreds of meters by the horse, and fainted in pain.
The rest of the men in black weren't much better, falling to the ground and moaning.
He Xiaoting should be happy when she successfully stopped the bad guys from leaving, but she hesitated, how should these people be handled?
In my previous life, I grew up in an era of peace, and I couldn't do anything about it.
If only there was a medicine that could cleanse memories.
Just in a dilemma, the young man in Tsing Yi, who was so embarrassed that he couldn't see his true face clearly, rushed over on horseback and said calmly, "Just leave it to me." ”
He Xiaoting was relieved, clapped her little hands and was about to leave.
After walking not far away, I saw a few injured horses kneeling on the side of the road, and my eyes lit up, "What, these horses should be regarded as compensation for us." ”
