Shen Yuehua pulled Su Ping'an around twice and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that his injuries were not serious.
"Second brother, you are injured too? Hurry up and find a doctor. What are you doing here? How can you not have any sense of propriety?"
Su Pingan muttered, "There are too many injured people, and there is only one doctor. They are all waiting in line. I don't want to wait, so I came over to see you when I saw you here."
"What are you looking at? What's so good about this? Have you ever met your mother or your father? Come on, hurry up and get in line."
Shen Yuehua pulled the father and son away one by one, and did not forget to give Shen Shuli a word.
"Girl, take care of these two first. Your father and I will go take care of the injuries and come back."
Shen Shuli understood her father's intention of leaving these two horse bandits behind.
The two bandits tried to sneak away when no one was paying attention, but were kicked back one by one by Shen Shuli.
"Tell me, which mountain are you from? Why did you come to Taohua Village today!" Chen Shuli looked down at the two people on the ground with cold eyes.
The two men had been stabbed several times by the villagers and their injuries were serious but not fatal.
...
...
The two men were already scared out of their wits. At this moment, they just wanted to answer whatever they were asked and just hoped that these people would give them a chance to survive.
"It was Liu Laizi from your village who tipped off our boss."
"It is said that Taohua Village and several nearby villages are planning to escape, and someone in the village bought a lot of food outside."
"Our boss was worried that the sheep he raised would run away, so he sent us down the mountain to slaughter the sheep in the nearby village to prevent you fat sheep from running away and being taken advantage of by others."
Shen Shuli didn't expect that the course of events would trigger a butterfly effect because of herself.
These bandits came down the mountain early because she heard rumors that they were going to flee the famine early. She felt quite complicated.
"Where is Liu Laizi? Also, how many teams did your stronghold send, and what were their missions?" Shen Shuli continued to interrogate, stepping hard on the wound of one of them.
I don’t know if the village where my grandfather lives has been targeted by these bandits. As for other villages, she can’t take care of them all.
“Ahhh! It hurts! I’ll tell you, I’ll tell you! I’ll cooperate! Please, go easy on me, girl!”
"Hurry up and tell me!"
"Liu Laizi is in your village. He is our spy in Qinglong Village and often gives us information. We will give him some food as a reward."
"The boss sent our team. We are the vanguard. Our mission is to massacre all the nearby villages first. There is also a logistics team responsible for transporting food. There are about a hundred people and they are expected to arrive in two hours."
"I don't know anything else! Please let me go, girl! I was forced into this!"
Thinking that there were more than a hundred bandits behind, Shen Shuli's heart sank.
Arrangements must be made early.
Shen Shuli dragged the two of them and handed them over to the old village chief.
This matter must be explained to the villagers.
"Village chief, I just learned from these two horse bandits that they came to our village today because a man named Liu Laizi in our village secretly tipped them off."
"Not only did the bandits send this group of people, but there are more than a hundred bandits coming to our village to steal food. We have to make arrangements early!"
The old village chief's face changed drastically when he heard this!
He never expected that it was his nephew, who was so distantly related to him, who recruited these horse bandits!
If he had known that he would bring such a disaster to the village, he should not have taken him and his son in out of pity!
What a scourge!
I thought Taohua Village could escape this time, but I didn’t expect there were a large number of bandits behind them!
When he thought of those ferocious horse bandits, his legs unconsciously weakened again.
Fortunately, his son beside him supported him in time.
Watching Shen Shuli's leaving figure, the village chief asked his son: "Boss, what should we do? There are still a large number of bandits behind us. How can we escape again this time!"
"Dad, no matter what, we have to try our best. I will go to Brother Dahai to discuss countermeasures. He is a scholar after all. In this situation, perhaps only he can think of a solution."
If Su Yunhai had not reacted promptly and led everyone to fight the enemy today, Taohua Village would have been massacred long ago.
"Okay, I'll do as you say." The old village chief couldn't stand up at all, so he just sat down on the ground and leaned against the earth wall, and said, "Tie up these two people first. Oh, and we have to quickly control Liu Laizi and his mother. Don't let them run away!"
"Yes, Dad!" Li Rui took action immediately.
Su Yunhai and Su Ping'an had already treated their wounds simply.
Shen Shuli called her parents aside and told them the situation. Seeing this, Su Ping'an also came over and pricked up his ears to listen to the gossip.
"What? There are more than a hundred bandits behind us?" Su Ping'an was so frightened that his eyes widened and his voice rose unconsciously.
All the surrounding villagers heard his voice.
Everyone's face changed drastically and there were endless exclamations.
"Are there another large group of bandits coming to our village?"
"Oh my God, the heavens are determined not to leave us any chance to survive!"
"Wow, wow, wow, my husband was just killed by bandits, leaving us an orphan and a widow. How are we going to survive?"
"Those thirty bandits were so hard to deal with just now. How can we possibly handle more than a hundred of them? We should run while there is still some time!"
Su Ping'an knew that he was in trouble, so he immediately squatted down, curled himself up into a ball, and held his head with his hands, waiting for his father to slap him.
Su Yunhai just glanced at his son and said nothing, but his expression was overly solemn.
The villagers will have to know about this matter sooner or later, so the sooner they know it, the sooner they can be mentally prepared.
Just then, Li Rui came over in a hurry.
"Dahai, do you have time? I have something important to discuss with you." Li Rui's voice came before he arrived.
Su Yunhai knew what he wanted to say and nodded to him: "If you have time, it's just right. I also have something to discuss with you."
Li Rui originally wanted to pull Su Yunhai away from the crowd, but was stopped by Su Yunhai.
"Brother Rui, we don't have much time left, so why not let everyone listen together?"
Li Rui thought about it and agreed, looking at Su Yunhai with hope in his eyes.
"Da Hai, do you have any idea? There are more than a hundred horse bandits. The strong men in our village combined are twice as many as them."
"But we are all ordinary people. The most we do on a daily basis is to kill chickens and pigs. How can we be a match for those horse bandits who kill people without blinking an eye?"
"Besides, we have already injured quite a few people when dealing with those thirty horse bandits. What should we do? Do you have any countermeasures?"
No matter how Li Rui racked his brains, he felt that Taohua Village had no chance of winning this time, and he was so anxious that beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.
Su Yunhai hadn't thought of a good idea yet, and seeing this, Shen Shuli quickly made a suggestion.
"Dad, I have an idea, do you want to hear it?"
Su Yunhai's eyes suddenly lit up, and he urged, "Tell me about it quickly."
Shen Yuehua, Su Ping'an and the surrounding villagers heard that they were discussing how to fight against the horse bandits, and they all came over unconsciously.
At this time, all the villagers turned their attention to Su Yunhai, the daughter who had been taken away by mistake and had just been found.
I really want to know what good solutions a young girl like her can come up with!
