Chapter 2913: Lure the Enemy Part 2
Jia Erlang's legs were weak and numb from kneeling, and he couldn't get up for a while, so a soldier came forward and dragged him up.
Bai Shan put his hand on Jia Erlang's shoulder and said to them, "Take good care of him and don't scare him."
But Jia Erlang only felt the pain on his shoulder from Bai Shan's pressure, which made him sober up all of a sudden. He didn't dare to neglect it, and bent his waist a little and said, "Sir, I, I will go right away, don't worry."
Just as Feng Dashan was standing at the door of the three Feng Dazhu brothers' homes, Jia Erlang was also swallowing his saliva and standing in front of a house. The two of them were separated by half of the village and knocked on each other's doors almost at the same time, but the knocking sound was not very loud, and no one heard it except the neighbors next door.
In the darkness of the night, Feng Dashan whispered to Feng San who came to open the door, "Where are your eldest and second brothers? Call them up, I have something to tell you."
Feng San asked, "Did the boss come back with something to say?"
Feng Dashan replied vaguely, "Hurry up, I have to go to Dajing Village to call for help later."
Feng San turned around and called out his two brothers. The three brothers kicked the door shut and left with Feng Dashan.
Jia Erlang's slightly pale face was not very clear in the night. He said to the person who opened the door, "My father wants to see you. He wants you to come over now."
The other party was stunned for a moment and then started cursing, "It's dark now, won't we meet tomorrow?"
Jia Erlang's face turned pale, but luckily no one could see him in the darkness. He forced himself to remain calm and said, "Just go if I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense? It's not like I'm just calling you."
Jia Erlang obeyed Bai Shan's instructions and turned around. He walked to another door, trying not to tremble, knocked on the door, and said the same thing again.
He knocked on the doors of three houses in total. Although the three people were very dissatisfied and cursed, they still followed Jia Erlang out. They did not take the shortcut, but went straight through the wheat field.
The wheat fields have just been harvested and have not been irrigated yet, so they are very dry. I walked boldly towards Dajing Village, which was much faster than walking.
Jia Erlang led the way, and after jumping off a ridge, he quickened his pace. The three people behind him cursed him, complaining that he was walking too fast and didn't even hold a torch when he came to call for help... Then they jumped off the ridge as well, but before they could even stand firm, they were tackled to the ground by the people rushing out...
Before the three of them could even utter a sound, their mouths were covered, their hands twisted behind their backs, their heads pushed down hard, their entire faces pressed against the magen, and against the dirt, feeling prickly and cold...
They wanted to struggle, but with one of their legs pressed down on their lower back, they couldn't exert any strength.
Just as they were about to start, on the other side of Xiaojing Village, the arresting soldiers and yamen runners also held down the three Feng Dazhu brothers who had escaped...
Feng Dazhu reacted and struggled violently when he was held down. He failed to break free from the person who was holding him, but he led the person who was holding him to crash into the person who was holding Feng San.
When the brothers came out, they walked too close together, and the people being arrested were crowded together. After he bumped into them, their formation was a little messed up. The person holding Feng San down tilted his body. Feng San immediately seized the opportunity to push the person holding him away. Without even taking the dirty cloth out of his mouth, he ran out with the smelly cloth in his mouth...
He had only run about twenty steps when an arrow came and hit him directly in the chest. He stopped and looked down at the arrow in his chest in disbelief. The pain only then registered in his brain, and he fell backwards with his eyes wide open...
Feng Dazhui and most of the soldiers and yamen runners could not see at night and could only see blurry figures. They did not react when they saw Feng San fall down. They still pounced on him and held him down before they realized something was wrong. Why was the man's struggle so weak?
Less than thirty steps away, Bai Shan put down his bow and said to County Captain Dong, "There's too much noise here. The villagers must have heard it and are preparing for their next move."
"Over at Dajing Village..."
"If we can control this side, we won't move over there first."
The yamen runners and soldiers only realized that someone was there when they heard Bai Shan and County Lieutenant Dong talking. They hurriedly tied up the Feng Dazhu brothers and threw them into the bushes, then came over to receive orders.
The soldier holding Feng San said, "Sir, Feng San is dead."
That arrow was incredibly accurate, hitting the heart. Blood was gushing out, and the man died soon after. I don't know if the county magistrate's arrow was a fluke, or if...
If it was really that accurate, not only the yamen runners and soldiers who were obeying orders in front of him, but even County Lieutenant Dong would be terrified.
Feng Dazhu, who was thrown into the bushes, couldn't help but move when he heard it, but his hands were tied behind his back and his feet were also tied up, so it was impossible for him to get up, let alone go to see Feng San.
The yamen runner kicked him when he heard the noise, leaving two of them to drag the tied-up people to the intersection to gather, while the others went into the village with Bai Shan.
The villagers of Xiaojing Village did feel that something was wrong. The noises tonight were very strange.
Normally, if they were to cause trouble, they wouldn't care about their feelings, and if they were to cause trouble, they would cause a loud noise.
Someone had already gotten up and left the house to check the situation, but they didn't turn on the lights. It was a little dark tonight, and when they looked outside, the shadows of the trees were swaying, as if someone was hiding inside, but it didn't seem like they were.
The man who came out swallowed his saliva, a little nervous, and turned to go back into the house. Just then, a sharp scream sounded, and several dark shadows seemed to flash across the wall. He was stunned for a moment, turned around and was about to run into the house, but was held down. Something reached out and grabbed his mouth. He wanted to call out to the monster, but he didn't have time to make a sound...
The people in the room were also a little startled and angry, kicking and stomping, "What do you want to do so late at night?"
The man who was pinned down struggled, hoping to get someone in the room to save him. However, he was pinned down harshly the moment he moved. A voice whispered in his ear, "Are you the boss?"
"Hmm?" This is a human, not a monster?
The soldier was certain this was the boss, so he looked towards the room where the curse had just been heard. They exchanged glances, then went to the windowsill. Two more quietly crept into the room. A moment later, the door was kicked open. The man inside, who had long since quieted down, flung open the window and jumped out. But before he could even stand, he was kicked in the back and fell forward...
Everyone rushed over and pinned him down, lifted him up by the hair, and one of them blew a tinder into his face. "Feng Ergu?"
Seeing his reaction, the soldiers were sure and immediately stuffed a piece of cloth into his mouth, tied his hands and took him away.
Feng Da sat on the ground and looked at them with horror.
The noise in the village gradually grew louder. Feng Da finally reacted and opened his mouth to shout, but a soldier kicked him rudely and said with a fierce look on his face: "Silence, the officers are doing their job. If you dare to shout, I will kill you as an accomplice of the bandits."
See you at 10pm
