Chapter 200 The three forces have become soft persimmons
Less than a moment after the first flare, another flare was launched into the air.
The sharp cry echoed for dozens of miles, and red fireworks exploded in the night sky.
Many of the sleeping villagers in Tubei Village heard a sharp sound in their daze, turned over and continued to sleep.
It's freezing cold and no one wants to leave their warm bed.
Moreover, the tranquility and safety of Tubei Village has gradually taken root in the hearts of the villagers, so they are not worried at all.
The miasma forest at the entrance of the village was thick with fog, and the shadows of the trees were hazy.
The snow that had not fallen during the day suddenly began to fall again.
The snowflakes are as light as cotton wool, rootless and helpless in the cold wind, floating with the wind.
The air was filled with the smell of wood mixed with coolness.
Six black shadows came running from all directions as fast as leopards, gathered in front of the miasma forest, looked at each other without saying anything else, turned around and rushed into the fog ahead.
The next moment, screams were heard from the forest.
Behind the miasmic forest, beside the reed marsh, a man in a moon-colored robe stood with his hands behind his back, and the falling snowflakes did not touch his body.
Tingfeng stood behind the man, holding up a huge oil-paper umbrella.
"Master, kill all six of them."
"No one alive?"
"No."
"Transport the body to Pier 12. I'll check it out when I have time."
"Not going back to Wangque Tower?"
"How could I have such an obscure object in the place where I eat and enjoy the view, Wangque Tower? If you say something nonsense again, I'll slap you in the face."
Ting Feng replied with a twitch of his lips.
After watching his men drag six bodies from the forest and personally confirming that none of them were faking their deaths, Bai Xiaofeng finally got into the waiting sedan chair and said lazily, "Let's go back to the inner city."
After those who sneaked in failed one after another and were captured, the final blow must be made by Tu Beicun.
Tubei Village is the key to bringing together the three major forces.
Now that their whereabouts have been exposed, they will massacre all of Tubei Village. Without the bond connecting the three forces, the exile land will return to the previous scene of mutual oppression. At the same time, they will also eliminate a major threat to the Huo family for their master.
Bai Xiaofeng sat in the sedan chair with a sour look on his face.
The entire plan was proposed by Huo Ziheng, and the three forces cooperated with each other.
Knowing that the ultimate goal of the plan was to protect Tu Beishan, the three forces had no choice but to jump into this trap.
Compared with Tu Beishan, the three forces have become soft persimmons.
If they don't fight, others will pick on them as the weak ones.
"Master—" Tingfeng's voice was heard outside the sedan chair.
"I came here because of my godson and goddaughter."
"Yes, Master, I want to ask if you can leave some people here."
"……Can."
"Leave more—"
"Shut up!"
“…”
Except for Madam Huo, the rest of the people in Tubei Village are weaklings who cannot be defeated. Tingfeng did not think twice and left nearly half of the people in Wangque Tower to guard the miasma forest to protect Tubei Village from a peaceful night.
There was a snowstorm in the middle of the night. When the villagers of Tubei Village got up, they found that the yard that had just been swept clean yesterday was covered with a thick layer of snow.
During the winter, when there is nothing to do, diligent men and women pick up brooms and sweep the yard inside and out, and also clean the road in front of the door to make it easier for villagers to walk.
"Hey, did you hear any strange noises last night? I was half asleep and I thought I heard a particularly piercing sound."
"I didn't hear anything. The man at home was sleeping like a pig, snoring so loudly that any noise would have been drowned out."
"Whether it's a matter of speaking or not, it's all happening outside the village. As long as we stay in the village, nothing will happen."
"I'm actually thinking of going to the inner city... It's the end of the year, isn't it? We've been busy all year round, and I want to trade my rice for some good food to make my family, my wife, and my children happy."
"Hey, you're so bold! Tell your family about this and see if the elders or the women will spank you."
"I'm thinking that things are different now than they were before, hahaha. Just thinking about it, I'm still a little hesitant to actually go."
"It's a pity that there are no places or people in the outer city where we can exchange things. Otherwise, we could exchange things with each other."
The gate of Xiao Su's house was also opened. Su Da and Su Er went out with brooms in their hands, and ran into Huo Ziheng who was also sweeping the snow with a broom in his hand.
Su Da said cheerfully, "Mr. Huo, it's cold outside, go back inside and warm yourself by the fire! Su Er and I will take care of this route!"
Su Er winked at the man, "Sir, were you driven out by Madam Huo? Your current status is a bit worrying!"
Huo Ziheng glanced at the two of them and raised his lip, "Did you volunteer to come out?"
The two brothers, "..." They were kicked out by their parents and wives.
They have never had such a thing as status.
Three big men waved their brooms to sweep the snow, and as they swept, they gathered together.
Su Da looked around and saw that every household had people busying themselves inside and outside, talking and laughing, but no one paid any attention to them.
He moved closer to Huo Ziheng and whispered, "Mr. Huo, I saw two fireworks being set off last night."
Su Er also came over and squeezed his face in between the two of them. "I saw it too, one is yellow and the other is red!"
There are many things that the villagers don’t know, but the Su family knows them.
Otherwise, if Tianbao didn’t come back all night, Xiao Su’s family would be extremely worried.
Huo Ziheng looked at the two men's mysterious expressions and laughed, "You are too sneaky. It's obvious that you have a secret. The villagers will come to you to question you later."
The two brothers immediately glanced around again, and sure enough, Chen Dafu, who was closest to them, was looking at them with shining eyes, "..."
The two of them immediately shushed Chen Dafu and made a locking gesture with their mouths.
Chen Dafu turned into a serious face, pinched his mouth with his hand, and patted his chest heavily: Don't worry, as a brother, I will keep the secret for you!
Su Da and Su Er also patted their chests and gave a thumbs up: Good brothers!
Huo Ziheng turned around and continued to sweep the snow, unable to help but smile.
The headquarters of Pier 12.
Tianbao woke up and opened his eyes. He was a little slow to react when he saw the different scenery above his head, and his little expression was dazed.
When I heard the conversation between the old man and the bearded man outside, I remembered that I had stayed at Pier 12 last night.
The little girl sat up, got out of bed, put on her little cotton shoes, and walked out.
"Grandpa Du, Uncle Bearded, have you caught all the people?"
The kid hadn't woken up yet, and Du Buqin and Da Huzi, who were sleeping next door, got up first. They didn't leave, but squatted on the small corridor outside the room and talked.
When they heard the sound, they turned their heads and saw a little girl coming out with a sleepy look on her face. There were two little hairs on her forehead, one high and one low, one fat and one thin. She looked completely different from her usual neat and tidy appearance.
"..." Du Buqin turned his head to look at the bearded man, "Can you comb Tianbao's hair?"
Bearded man, "Why don't you help?"
"If I could comb my hair, could I build a bird's nest by myself?"
“…” The bearded man went through a series of thoughts in his mind twice before reluctantly going to his bedroom to get a comb.
The two grown men, one kept giving instructions while the other kept making corrections. They didn't even dare to pinch the baby's hair too hard for fear of pulling her.
After combing their hair, the two of them put away everything in the room that could cast shadows.
