Chapter 131 Die with Unclosed Eyes

The little guy held a grudge and chased the robbers for several miles, shooting and killing two of them.

…

When Zhou's family came down the mountain, they were terrified when they saw the tragic situation in the village.

Wang was so scared that she started crying.

She couldn't imagine what would have happened to her if she had stayed at home.

Taohua Village suffered heavy losses this time. This group of robbers were not human. When they left, they risked being killed by the mountain god. They also burned the food they had found and set fire to many villagers' houses.

The old house of the Zhou family was also half burned down.

Even the government officials said that with such a large-scale attack by bandits, many people were massacred, but unexpectedly Taohua Village survived.

The losses were not very severe, at least the mortality rate was not high.

All the villagers kowtowed towards Taohua Village behind them, thanking the mountain god for saving the village.

Lin Shiqi's tofu shop was also severely damaged. All the tools were smashed, and even the big iron pot was broken. It was a mess...

Fortunately, everyone was safe.

Lin Shiqi and her colleagues did not sleep all night and continued to work during the day to comfort their relatives and rebuild their home.

The bullets were all used up and the weapons were stored in the concentric lock space.

Zhou Lang also went to the government office to cooperate with the officers and soldiers and reported the discovery of the snake mark at their doorstep yesterday. Several elders from the village also went there and told the legend of the mountain god.

It is said that in the Peach Blossom Mountain behind Peach Blossom Village, there used to be a Peach Blossom Goddess, a female mountain god with infinite magical powers. She had appeared in many miracles in the past...

Anyway, it is to protect the people and has immeasurable merits.

After such a great disaster, many families had no food left. Without any explanation, Old Man Zhou took out all the food hidden in the mountains and gave it to the head of the village, asking him to distribute it to the families in the village who had no food to eat.

The villagers were very grateful.

Lin Shiqi and her friends' tofu business was temporarily suspended. Some of the tofu made at home was wasted by the robbers, and the remaining edible ones were distributed to the villagers.

Their family has always had a large stock of bean dregs, which came in handy this time, so they took it all out to use for relief.

The old house of the Zhou family was also half burned down, but fortunately, there were still some vacant rooms that could be lived in.

Step up the repair of old houses.

Lao Zhou's family also provided manpower to help other families in the village.

In short, this matter required both human and material resources.

The people at the end of the village did not suffer major losses because of the Zhou family’s tip-off, and they were very grateful to them.

Old Man Zhou’s voice in the village is now second only to that of the village head.

***

Ohara County, Snake Mountain.

Bandits' den.

A bearded man was sitting at the top seat, furious.

"Third brother, I told you that there are still several fat villages near Dayuan County that we haven't robbed yet. There's no need to run out of the county and go so far to rob Taohua Village. Look at the loss now! The second brother is dead, and so many brothers have been killed. How can I explain to the brothers in the village!"

A young man with a hooked nose sat at the bottom seat, having been treated for a bullet wound to the arm.

He looks like a ruthless man, using a knife to dig out the shrapnel in his arm.

There was blood all over the place, but he didn't even frown.

It’s not that I’ve lost the sense of pain, it’s just that I can endure it quite well.

The people around him all gasped.

After he dug out the shrapnel, he sprayed a mouthful of strong liquor on the wound, and then signaled his men to bandage his wound...

"Brother, I was reckless this time. But I did send people to inquire. There is a wealthy family in Taohua Village who can make tofu and supply it to Xu's Trading Company in the county. The business is good, and thousands of kilograms of tofu are shipped out every day. They also sell bean sprouts and moldy tofu. Their family has bought a horse carriage and built a new house. Their family is quite wealthy, comparable to landlords. We can rob their property and force them to tell us the tofu recipe. We can make a fortune by selling the tofu recipe alone..."

His arm was bleeding, but it didn't affect his speaking speed at all.

This is truly an extraordinary ruthless person.

Even the bearded boss felt a little scared.

The tone was no longer as aggressive and forceful as before.

"It's good, but that place is so weird. We didn't get a single drop of gold this time, and we lost so many brothers. Sigh!"

The young man also looked sad.

"It's all my fault. I didn't think it through, but I have a hunch that the one who killed our brothers was not some mountain goddess, but a human who took this extremely lethal hidden weapon and ambushed us in the dark. When my brother recovers from his injuries, he will definitely go and test his hypocrisy again."

"My third brother! Don't joke with our brothers' lives anymore. Life is tough at the end of the year, and there are many hills near us. If the loss is too great and other villages find out, they will come to rob us overnight, and we will be the fat sheep in their mouths..."

The boss is telling the truth.

Those who occupy the mountains and act as kings are not relatives or friends. They just keep an eye on each other and try to swallow up the weaker one.

They have worked hard to build up a little fame in Sheshan, and they cannot lose the big picture for the sake of small gains.

A landlord in a village, no matter how wealthy he is, is nothing more than a village landlord.

Several nearby hills have recently recruited a lot of new followers, and their momentum is very strong. This time, Sheshan lost sixty or seventy people, almost half of its elite forces. If other hills know about it, there is no telling whether someone will launch a surprise attack.

How dare we send people to clean up Taohua Village which is so far away?

When they usually go out to collect money or do work, they always leave half of their people behind to guard the mountains.

I was afraid that my competitors would take advantage of me and steal my property.

The hook-nosed young man was not convinced, but he had to accept that Da Dangyou was right.

"Listen to my brother."

The bearded boss breathed a sigh of relief.

Suddenly, the handle of a knife was thrust into his chest.

The eldest boss looked at the hook-nosed young man in disbelief, "You... Third brother... You..."

The man had a serious injury to his arm and was being bandaged.

The other arm is fine.

It was with his good arm that he stabbed the boss.

His sinister eyes were like sharp blades. "Brother, you are afraid of tigers in front and wolves behind. You are not suitable to be the person at the helm of our Sheshan. Leave it to me, your third brother. I promise to lead Sheshan better. I will be a general of the Dayu Kingdom in the future. Sheshan is the place where I will make my fortune. The brothers who died today happened to be all your old subordinates. The second brother also died in Taohua Village. You go down and accompany them. Don't worry, leave Sheshan to me in the future..."

"You are such an ungrateful person..." The boss seemed to be unwilling to die in peace.

This third brother was a beggar they picked up.

Because of his usefulness, he was promoted to the third in command, but unexpectedly, he was inviting a wolf into the house.

"You can't say that, big brother. This is called the more capable the more work. If I hadn't recognized my master in advance, I could have kept you alive for a few more years, and you would have died when the government came to suppress the bandits. Now, I, Dai Chuanzhi, am destined to do great things. In the future, I will be promoted to the third rank official, go in and out of the court, and bring honor to the family. I have to start accumulating my own strength in advance! Go to hell, big brother, you have done so many evil things, and sooner or later you will die..."

000It’s the eighth day of the first lunar month, and it’s time to go to work.
