148 Three Thousand Bandits, Eight Hundred Villages (1)
In the small hills not far from Huashan, there are bandits. In fact, Huashan originally also had bandits, and such a steep mountain was suitable for being the base camp of bandits.
It's just that since Bai Xiaosheng came here, the bandits have disappeared because he doesn't like these. Now, these bandits are back, and Bai Xiaosheng, who drove the bandits away that day, has become the head of the bandits.
On Chaoyang Peak, Bai Xiaosheng sat on the ground, and with a gesture of his hand, those people sat down in fear one by one.
He laughed and said, "Everyone is afraid of me! β
"Go, you still understand human nature...... Most of the people complained in their hearts, and these people have not forgotten the scene on the mountain just now. This guy kills people when he does it, and everyone who kills him is terrified.
They didn't know that although Bai Xiaosheng killed many people, most of them were notorious people. For this operation, he had been investigating for a long time before, so he went on a killing spree. For the others, he didn't kill much, just asked them to bring the things from the cottage and came here with him, and he didn't care if someone escaped on the way.
You see that there were hundreds of people in front of him, but now there are less than thirty left, and there are only seven young men, and the rest are either old and weak or women.
To put it bluntly, it's not that they don't want to run, but they ask themselves if they can't run, so they don't run.
"Okay, don't talk nonsense!" Bai Xiaosheng's expression was solemn, and the thirty or so people also trembled, raised their heads one by one, and listened carefully, but they didn't dare to look at him. "I found your cottage, in addition to eliminating harm for the people, I also know that everyone is a hard-working person. I would like to give you a way to live......" He pointed to the seven young men and said, "Tell me why you don't run away like the others." β
The seven people looked at each other, and one of them whispered: "My wife is here, I can run, my wife is not in good health, she can't run." Beside him was an old woman, thin and weak, and her eyes were not working.
Bai Xiaosheng nodded and said, "Not bad." In this respect, filial piety is concerned, you are a person with a conscience. β
He was surprised and delighted, he didn't expect to be evaluated by Bai Xiaosheng, a killer, and he was greatly relieved, which also meant that he didn't have to die. When the other six people saw it, they also expressed their reasons.
Of these six people, five of them have the same conditions as the first person, they all have old fathers and mothers, and they can't run away, and some of them have wives and sons. The last person is different, he is a bachelor, he doesn't run because he has no relatives, and he feels that it is not interesting to live in the world, and he is not afraid of death.
"Good, good, good. All seven of you are good. I declare that from this day forward, you are my people. This whole Huashan is mine, and it will be yours. And these old people and children are your relatives. Now I give you the first task, which is to build a cottage, to build our own. Bai Xiaosheng stood up and said, "There are trees and stones in this Huashan, all of which are ready-made materials, so you can start moving now." β
Saying that, Bai Xiaosheng left, and everyone looked at each other, not knowing why. One whispered, "What does he mean?"
"You idiot, what do you mean by adults? You didn't listen to what the adults just said, we are all his people, and if someone bullies us in the future, the adults will stand up for us. β
"Adults' martial arts are so high, doesn't that mean that no one will dare to bully us in the future?"
One person said with some joy, and the other hurriedly said, "I don't know if I don't hurry up and do things." β
"Yes, yes, yes...... We used to do things. The seven men immediately got up, and the old man, who was still able to work, also stood up, and said, "Since we have our own stockade, then we old fellows should also help." β
"No, no. Uncle, you also heard it just now, this is a task given to us by adults, you should rest when you are old. Don't worry, we will definitely be able to build the stockade in a few days. β
The seven people slapped their chests and thought, but they were also happy. They have all seen Bai Xiaosheng's kung fu, it is really boundless, like a fairy. There is a fairy-like person to protect, and the colorful ones who will not live in the future.
Bai Xiaosheng came back again, he was carrying a dead wild wolf in his hand, which he had beaten in the woods, and he also carried some rice on his back, which was what he had eaten. These are the foods that Bai Xiaosheng prepared for these old people.
When a few old people saw it, where did they dare to let Bai Xiaosheng make things for them, they stepped forward one by one to take it and did it themselves. These are not much to them.
Watching everyone work, Bai Xiaosheng was very satisfied, and he instructed the seven men to build a house. They are no strangers to these jobs, and everyone knows some of them, but they are much worse than Bai Xiaosheng in modern times.
The house that Bai Xiaosheng asked them to make is both beautiful and comfortable, and the fire pit specially made in the house can also dispel the cold for these people.
Building a house is not easy, especially with stones, which are slow in many places. With Bai Xiaosheng, it's different, his sword can completely open mountains and split mountains. According to the principles of mechanics, he split some stones, and then these people piled them up piece by piece, and the walls took shape quickly. Then put wood and thatch, it's very simple!
It took less than three hours for a room to get up, and it was getting dark. Bai Xiaosheng let the old man and children go in to rest, while he still took the seven men to work.
To be honest, these people are not easy, because Bai Xiaosheng's speed is very fast, and their tired waists are almost straight, but Bai Xiaosheng does not let go, where do they dare to stop, they can only endure and continue.
This was a common occurrence at the time!
After building another room, Bai Xiaosheng let these people rest, and when the seven people didn't expect it, Bai Xiaosheng actually caught pheasants, and also got a ginseng, and made soup for them to drink.
Drinking that unusually delicious soup, the seven of them no longer felt tired, but their hearts were warmβthey had never received such treatment!
Early the next morning, all seven of them got up, all of them full of energy. Bai Xiaosheng was not polite and continued to work with them. Under the hands of eight people, one stone house after another rose from the ground and practiced together.
Bai Xiaosheng built these stone houses into the shape of a courtyard house, although there is no wall outside, but the stone wall is hard enough.
These people didn't know that Bai Xiaosheng was also thinking about food when they built the stone house. As long as you are human, you can't ignore these things. In this great mountain, it is impossible to grow ordinary food. He observed for a few days and came up with several ideas, that is, to grow cash crops.
In ancient times, there was no such statement, but Bai Xiaosheng was not an ancient person, so naturally he didn't need to think about this. He found a lot of medicinal herbs through the time he was collecting herbs, so he came up with the idea of growing medicinal herbs.
Here, he doesn't need to draw a medicinal field, he can choose the place where the medicinal herbs grow, and then plant the seeds, and he doesn't even need to care, as long as he takes care of it occasionally.
The second method is to plant fruit trees. There are many wild fruits on this mountain, and you can take care of them, choose the delicious ones, pick them, and take them down the mountain to exchange for food.
The third method is fish farming.
He can dig a stone pond at the river, use some tricks, and make the water from the river pour into the pond, bring fish, and then unload the water, and the cycle repeats. This way, they can have enough fish to eat. Just to be able to keep the fish uninterrupted, you can raise the fish in the fish pond and then put down a barbed wire fence so that the fish do not run away with the water when the water is discharged.
With the perfection of his thoughts, everyone worked day by day, and various facilities were also improved on Huashan. For those thirty or so people, this place has become a paradise.
There is no killing, no injustice, you can eat enough, you can eat meat, wolves, tigers...... They have also tasted this strange thing. Where in the world could there be a better life than this.
They're all glad they're here.
About a month later, Bai Xiaosheng gathered seven men and four children. These children are not big, they are not even ten years old, otherwise they would have to follow the work. In ancient times, it was like this, and even though they were all young, they were much more sensible than modern children, and they often helped adults do what they could.
"Now we have a good place to live, and there is no shortage of food. Next, I will teach you martial arts so that you have the opportunity to save more people. He walked to the center of the eleven people, squatted down, made a squatting posture, and said, "This is a squatting horse step, you can give it a try." β
The eleven all nodded, and immediately did as he had just done. The seven big men are all very skilled, because they have all practiced, after all, as a bandit, you have to have two hits. Four children are not good, they have not yet learned. This may seem simple, but it's not so simple to learn.
"Since the seven of you have practiced, then I will teach you something new. β
Bai Xiaosheng taught the seven people the method of breathing and breathing, asked them to cooperate when they stood and walked, and then walked in front of the four children and personally supervised and guided them. After practicing these, Bai Xiaosheng let the children rest, and then led the seven people to the mountain road and said, "Now, I will teach you the method of lifting strength and lightening the body. From now on, you will have to run three times on the mountain road for me every day. β
This road is not close, but it is not far, but because it is a mountain road, it is steep, and it is difficult to run. But if you learn light skills, it's nothing. And Bai Xiaosheng taught them light skills and let them run on them, just so that they could practice light skills.
In the afternoon, Bai Xiaosheng began to teach these people to read and write, because they were afraid of Bai Xiaosheng's relationship, these people did not dare not listen carefully, compared to the seven adults, the four children learned significantly more seriously. During this period, Bai Xiaosheng also called several young women over, taught them the method of accounting and let them learn to keep accounts.
In addition to teaching these people, Bai Xiaosheng often walked down the mountain, searched around for various news, and recorded them one by one. For the nearby bullies, local tyrants, mountain bandits and robbers, they all know it one by one.
During this period, he also took some people up the mountain, but there were not many people, and each time it was in single digits. These were some poor people he had met, and when he saw them, he brought them up, gathered strength, and taught them knowledge and martial arts.
