Outside the Bai family ancestral hall, the grain field.

Hundreds of villagers have gathered here one after another.

Bai Chongshan read Mr. Mushi's letter first, and then said: "Although your previous generation was my Wumeng family's Aga and Xiaxi, the Wumeng family has never treated you and other people of the present. Since the Wumeng family settled in Guigu because of the grace of Bai Dashanren, the Wumeng family led you to build houses and open up wasteland, build fields and roads, dig wells and make medicines, so that there is today's 'Guigu' medicine village. When you are in difficulty, you can also borrow money from the Umeng family to borrow grain on credit, and if you can repay it, you will be exempted, and the Wumeng family will never urge rent and force debts, so that anyone will be embarrassed, because the Wumeng family is your master and your brothers and sisters. You have never treated the Umeng family as an outsider, and have shared the fate of the Umeng family for generations. Now, because of a Mr. Mushi, disaster is coming, Guigu Medicine Village is facing catastrophe and danger, and I and everyone are unpredictable. It's me who knows people and is not allowed to use people carelessly, I'm sorry for everyone. Because of harboring the imperial court, we may all sit together, or be beheaded by the whole family or be killed by the nine clans. Therefore, in the name of the owner of the village, I now give everyone freedom: you can choose to leave immediately with your family, and choose a new place to live elsewhere; I can also take you to a distant hiding place for refuge. In order to thank the villagers in the village for their loyalty and dedication to the Wumeng family for many years, I decided: All the people in my village, regardless of men, women and children (including the fetus in the womb), will be given 300 taels of silver per person according to the head, so as to fund everyone's escape expenses and settlement expenses. This is a little bit of the Wumeng family's meager heart, and I hope you will accept it. ”

There was a deathly silence, no one spoke.

"I'm too old to walk, I'm not going anywhere, I beg the owner of the village to let me stay! I will die in the 'Ghost Valley', on the side of the mountain of Wumeng's tomb, please allow me to be buried next to the tombs of my ancestors for generations. An old man in his eighties spoke first.

"I'll stay too. ”

"I'm not going to die. ”

For a time, the old, weak, sick and disabled expressed their stance to stay.

"Master of the village, will you and Princess Dolma go?" asked a young man.

"No, Dolma and I are not leaving, and we have decided to live and die with the cottage. ”

"Then we won't leave, and swear to share the weal and woe with the old princess. ”

"If we don't leave, we're fighting with the officers and soldiers!"

"Let's stay, guard the house, and defend the cottage!"

For a while, everyone rushed to stay.

"That being said, I would like to thank all the folks. Bai Chongshan was moved, "It's okay for everyone to stay, but from now on, you must only obey me and Zhuoma's orders, listen to me and Zhuoma's dispatch, and don't disobey." Amu, you can arrange it. ”

"I will first lead the women under the age of 30 and the children under the age of 15 in the village, set off at noon, and first go to the Guanyin Cliff Qilin Cave in the distance outside the cottage for a while, and after settling these people, I will return to the village within three days. Those who remain are led by I, Ada, to guard the village. Everyone will go back in a while to collect their valuable property, bring it with them if they can, and hide it on the spot if they can't, so as not to let the officials and soldiers take advantage of it. In the wells, on the poultry and livestock, and in the goods that cannot be hidden, there are some acute and * that only we in the 'Guigu' medicine village can solve, so that the jackals who have invaded our homes know that they can rob us of everything we have, but we will not be blessed to enjoy everything we have, including women. The women who stay, as long as they take my secret pill and add some other supplements, can become like me, and no one dares to get close. Look, I'm going to turn you into a poisoner like me in no time. After Bai Ruxue finished speaking, she grabbed a small flower dog from the crowd in the barn and asked:

"Who's from it?"

"My family's. An elderly woman replied.

"Can you sell it to me?" Ask again.

"No, I'll give it to you, Princess Dolma. ”

"Thank you, Grandma!" Bai Ruxue said, and then said to Xiaohuagou: "Xiaohuagou, I'm sorry for you, only you can prove that I am telling the truth, in order to express my gratitude to you, I will kiss you." ”

In everyone's confusion and incomprehension, Bai Ruxue kissed the nose of the little flower dog, then put down the little flower dog, and said: "You go!"

I saw that the little flower dog only walked five or six steps, and then fell to the ground without saying a word, black blood flowed from his eyes, mouth and nose and died, and even the white hair on the dog's body turned into black hair.

"Any man who wants to insult the woman who spoiled my cottage, this little flower dog is his fate!" Bai Ruxue said sharply.

"With the owner of the village and the princess here, what officers and soldiers are we afraid of......" Everyone admires and trusts Bai Chongshan and Bai Ruxue from the bottom of their hearts.

"That's it. Let's go back and get ready! Those who are going to leave should gather here at noon without delay. Bai Chongshan instructed.
