254、The bandit's fault is like a comb (2/2)

254、The bandit's fault is like a comb (2/2)

Wheat seedlings sprout in the fields,

The cold wind swept through the open fields, and the sound of the wind was like the desperate howling of wild animals.

Cui Yulan wore coarse clothes and walked in the streets.

——She got this dress in exchange for the wedding dress made of the fine fabrics on her body.

In addition, I also received dozens of copper coins,

She used it to buy a pair of shoes and socks.

Although the wedding dress was slightly torn by Su Wu, the material was still good after all.

Trim, prune, embellish,

It can still be used as clothes for girls in the family to wear when they get married.

Go straight west from the field path Cui Yulan is walking, and you will turn into the main road on the long embankment.

Shilihe Village is just under the slope of the fifth turn of the long embankment.

Cui Yulan walked in front of the path,

From time to time I turn around and look back,

Seeing the skinny boy following him leisurely, he felt much more relaxed.

This time she promised to 'go home and have a look' with the boy.

But he took a huge risk.

There is a high probability that the bandits in Heifeng Village are still entrenched in Shilihe Village. If she returns home alone, she will fall into a trap.

But now there is a skinny boy following,

She wasn't that scared.

"How many miles do we have to walk to reach Shili River?" Su Wu asked Cui Yulan once again when he saw Cui Yulan turning to look at him.

Cui Yulan made an estimate in her mind.

He said: "In about seven or eight miles, we can reach our village."

“There are not many plains in this area;

There are mountains and forests everywhere around, and it really looks like a good place for bandits to set up camp. "Su Wu took steps to keep up with the tall woman, raised his eyes and glanced around.

There is a faint long embankment ahead that divides the flat field into two pieces.

Outside this field, there are rolling hills and trees covering the area.

It is indeed a good place for bandits in the green forest to gather.

Su Wu continued: "Which mountain around here is their lair, do you still remember it?

I remember you said that you escaped from their village on the mountain. "

"Although it was dark at the time,

But the little girl is quite familiar with her surroundings.

Can tell which mountain they occupy. Cui Yulan nodded slightly, glanced sideways at Su Wu's side face, and said softly, "What do you think, Xiao Lang?" "

"Any ideas?

But you can't help or intervene. "Su Wu shook his head.

Cui Yulan opened her mouth,

That depressed feeling surged from the bottom of my heart again.

Perhaps because she was a little acquainted with Su Wu, she couldn't help but feel depressed in her heart and retorted: "It's always the little girl who can't help - if the young man wants to go up the mountain to open up the den of thieves, he always needs the little girl to help him." You gave me directions, right?"

"When I arrived in your village,

If you catch any bandit, he will have no idea where his lair is.

I know better than you. " Su Wu said.

Then I have to lead you to our village first!

The words of rebuttal swirled in Cui Yulan's throat, but she never said it out.

She also knows,

At that moment, I agreed to it.

You need to give your family savings to the other person,

This is something you can't afford to pay.

Since we can't default on our debt, what's the point of mentioning someone who shows us the way but doesn't show us the way?

Cui Yulan pursed her lips and stopped talking.

However,

She didn't speak, but Su Wu asked her questions at this moment, which made her teeth itch.

"It's too slow to drive like this.

By the time we reach your village, it should be almost dusk.

Not much can be done like this.

How about this,

I'll take you on your way.

Don't panic, don't make a fuss, understand? "Su Wu looked at Cui Yulan.

Cui Yulan pursed her lips and didn't want to answer.

But seeing him look serious again,

He didn't dare not answer, and responded dully: "Okay."

The words fell to the ground,

In an instant, the shadows at the feet of Cui Yulan and Su Wu suddenly stood up, forming two squirming human shapes.

Black liquid flows on the two human figures,

Suddenly the two are wrapped up!

Cui Yulan's eyes darkened.

When she came back to her senses, she had already appeared in a dark world where shadows intertwined like dense forests.

And in the gap between the ‘shadow trees’,

Only then can we get a glimpse of reality!

She was brought into the shadow world by Su Wu!

At the moment, Su Wu restrained his charm so that it would not cause harm to Cui Yulan, a normal person.

He has already demonstrated his abilities in front of Cui Yulan,

He doesn't care about showing his cunning ability again, twice, or even three times.

Although this woman has a hot temperament,

But he knows the importance of advance and retreat,

She knew what should be said and what should not be said.

Cui Yulan hurriedly observed the shadows around her.

After seeing Su Wu walking out of the shadows, she finally calmed down and said in a trembling voice, "Where is this place?"

"You don't have to worry about it."

Su Wu shook his head: "Look at the light and shadow in the dark gap.

That’s where we actually are in reality right now,

Now,

Show me the way,

I'll take you back to your village. "

After he finished speaking, Cui Yulan had not yet settled down.

So he emphasized his tone slightly: "Move quickly!"

"ah……

yes! "After being scolded by him, Cui Yulan calmed down and immediately began to guide Su Wu, "Let's follow this path to the front embankment..."

Before the words fell,

alternating shadows,

The actual light and shadow in the gap changes into colorful light bands.

A few breaths passed,

Su Wu had already led her across a path that was nearly three miles long.

Walk up the causeway!

"Go south,

The fifth turn,

There is a gentle slope over there. Walking down the gentle slope is Shilihe Village! "When Cui Yulan saw this, she omitted the unnecessary nonsense and directly pointed out the direction.

…

Shilihe Village is surrounded by hills.

The closest village to this village is Tanjia Village, which is thirteen miles away.

pity,

Since something strange happened in Tanjiacun, the people in the village have been dying and running away. Tanjiacun has become a deserted village.

As a result, Shilihe Village is truly isolated among the mountains.

He was targeted by a group of gangsters from Heifeng Village.

This village was built near a river, and the river irrigated the fields on both sides.

Keeping the fields more fertile,

Food output is higher than other villages.

The villagers are also better off,

All of these are originally excellent advantages.

But after the village was targeted by bandits,

That becomes the biggest disadvantage.

nowadays,

In the village, which was originally quite lively, there was no sound of people anymore.

Crows sat on the trees around the village houses, making one or two unpleasant whistles from time to time.

And around the trees where they live,

Those gates are either collapsed or wide open in the village houses,

There are often corpses lying upside down.

Or a man's body and head are separated, and blood flows from the threshold to the courtyard,

Or a woman's clothes are torn and her naked body is hung from the rafters.

Some thatched houses have blazing fires on their roofs,

Some houses have turned into ruins.

The entrance of Shili Village,

Several men wrapped in old clothes gathered together,

A big pot was set up in the open space.

Boil hot water,

Throw the slaughtered chickens, ducks and even piglets into the hot pot for a bath.

Then pluck the hair and remove the dirt on the spot,

Grabbing the salt collected from every house on the ground,

Rub the inside and outside of these chickens, ducks, and piglets.

hanging in the sun,

Wait for the water vapor to evaporate.

“This village looks rich, but in fact it doesn’t have much oil or water at all!

There are only so many chickens and ducks in the whole village.

There were not even any cattle, mules or horses to be seen!

Such a waste of energy,

As a result, this little gain is really unlucky, unlucky! "The middle-aged man with a pockmarked face rinsed the knife in a hot pot, wiped off the blood on the knife, pointed at the two rows of chickens and ducks hanging on the shelf, and spoke angrily.

"Most of them are with the village master.

He wants to keep recruiting troops. If you are not convinced, go and ask him for it? "The thin young man sitting on the horse put a few pieces of firewood under the firewood pot. Hearing the pockmarked man's words, he sneered disdainfully.

The pockmarked man glared at the thin man fiercely,

He looked at the fat man beside him who was staring blankly at the chicken and duck feathers in the pot: "Where is the second mule?

Waiting for him to transport things to the mountain,

Where did he go? ! "

The fat man grinned and said to the pockmarked man mysteriously: "He is having a warm relationship with his former neighbor's sister-in-law, for just a moment and a half. Wait, what will happen to him?

How long has Er Mulezi been thinking about his sister-in-law? "

"Fuck him, mother!"

If everyone doesn't do their job, they will waste their energy on this kind of thing!

Huang Saner and this second mule,

They are all idiots who can't even walk when they see a woman! "The pockmarked man cursed.

"It is said that,

Huang Saner’s bride who will enter the bridal chamber with him,

He knocked out the guard last night and ran away?

He took a dozen people to chase him,

The people he was chasing were all back, and he and his bride were still nowhere to be seen. "The thin man was fiddling with the firewood, looking at the fat man, and talking animatedly.

The pockmarked man glanced at him,

Didn't say anything to him.

But the fat man nodded: "Master Huang San'er brought more than ten people with him.

Six of them came back one after another.

None of the others came back.

If the guarantee is not complete, it will be eaten by some trick. "

"It's so pitiful that the third son is in charge..." the thin man said with a click of his tongue.

There was no sign of pity for Huang San.

They call Huang San, or call him by his first name,

Or call it ‘three sons in charge’,

No matter how he sounded, it sounded like he didn't take Huang San, the bandit leader who held the third position in Heifeng Village, seriously.

They are chatting here,

In a village courtyard not far away,

Suddenly there was a clang sound.

"The second mule and his sister-in-law are gentle enough.

It's coming out! "

"Ha ha!"

The thin man and the fat man laughed,

They all turned to look at the courtyard surrounded by an earthen wall.

result,

They didn't see the two mules coming out of the wall,

But they saw a scene that made them even more excited——

A naked woman fled out of the yard and ran straight to the village entrance on the other side!

"Aha!"

"Er Mule is so kind-hearted. Does he want to give us his sister-in-law to use as well?"

"Let's go, let's not let his sister-in-law run away!"

The fat man and the thin man laughed and strode towards the woman who was running away in panic.

The pockmarked man had a sullen face,

He sat by the fire and said nothing.

The two men had just taken steps,

The second mule ran out of the courtyard ahead of them and cursed at them: "Don't cause trouble to me, go and peel your chickens!"

Cursing loudly, the two mules turned around and chased the escaping 'sister-in-law'.

"The dog fucked me!"

"We must ask him to lend us his sister-in-law tonight!"

The fat man and the thin man spoke obscene words,

The latter casually picked up a straw sandal scattered on the ground.

Throw it hard at the second mule,

distance is too far,

Neither of them could tell whether the straw sandals hit the two mules.

I only saw that straw sandal when approaching the opponent,

The other party suddenly fell to the ground with a thud.

"That's it?

He and his sister-in-law had only been together for less than half a moment, and they turned into soft-legged shrimps? "

The thin man watched the second mule fall,

But he laughed loudly,

The woman is still running ahead.

but,

Let them both laugh at you,

The second mule fell to the ground but still didn't get up.

After a few breaths, the thin man, the fat man, and the gloomy pockmarked man by the fire all began to feel that something was wrong.

However,

At this point it was too late.

A shadow stretched from the village entrance to them,

Then, gurgling black liquid poured out of the shadow,

The black liquid suddenly stood up,

It was wrapped in a cold and treacherous charm that made their hands and feet instantly cold and gave them a strong sense of suffocation, wrapping them all up in an instant!

There was only the pockmarked man sitting by the fire,

He shouted at the last moment.

The voice is sharp,

When you hear it, it sounds like a cry that a person can only make after being scared out of his wits: "It's weird! It's weird!!!"
