Lian Xiaomin was planning quickly in her mind, and without saying anything, she took Doubao and walked towards the house.
As he walked, he had an idea and in a flash, he gathered the two little kids sleeping on the big kang in the room, along with their bedding, into the space and gently placed them on the big bed and crib in the bedroom of the villa.
Then, he led people directly into the east room.
"Brother Doubao, I'll get the weapons, and we'll go into the mountains to look for people."
Doubao was a little confused. He went into the room and looked around. Xiaofu and Xiaoya were not on the kang. He asked, "Where is your sister-in-law? ... No, are we just going? Are you really not going to call anyone?"
"The two kids are at my aunt's house. Yes, let's go!"
She suddenly remembered something and asked again, "Have you not eaten yet?"
"We have a big fight tonight, so we need to eat first. They arrested Brother Xin Tian, they must have a purpose, they want to interrogate him about something, and we can't let our lives be in danger for a while."
"I'll get you some food so you can eat first, and then we'll set off."
As she spoke, she went to the pot and pretended to do something. When no one was looking, she took out four steamed buns, a bowl of rice porridge, some pickles, and four pork pies.
Put all these on the kang table, tell him to eat quickly, and go pack your equipment.
Doubao had run all the way here and had consumed a lot of energy. He was so hungry that he could swallow a cow. He sat down at the table and started eating without any hesitation.
I saw the steamed buns and the pie went down his stomach in a flash, and then he drank the rice porridge, and soon all of it was gone.
Lian Xiaomin took out a pistol full of bullets, which was also seized from Hu Sanhai last time.
With a "bang", he slapped the gun onto the kang mat and said, "Brother Doubao, do you know how to use it? Take it with you."
Doubao's eyes lit up, he picked it up and fiddled with it for a while, then put it on his back: "Yes, we have tinkered with all kinds of guns."
"...Alas, it would be great if Sanyong and Huzi were here. These two damned bastards, why did they go so far away at the critical moment?"
Lian Xiaomin patted him on the shoulder and said, "I feel like this group of people is coming for you four... Some time ago I heard someone in the commune asking about the hunters in Sandagou."
"The other party is going through so much trouble. I guess they can't wait for Brother Sanyong to come back. They want to take you two down first. I don't know what their purpose is..."
"Brother Doubao, don't worry, I'm here for you, and I won't let anything happen to Brother Xin Tian!"
At this point, Doubao only believed in Xiaohua Mulan, so he just followed her. He nodded and said, "I don't know why we have to check who went into the mountains to hunt. Anyway, we never told you."
Lian Xiaomin blew out the oil lamp and walked out of the house. Doubao led the way with a flashlight, and the two of them hurried towards the pass of Daqing Mountain.
Although it was completely dark, as a local, I had hunted here countless times since I was a child.
Thanks to his familiarity with the mountains, he had enough energy after a full meal and walked quickly, taking Lian Xiaomin with him to look for the group of people.
There was no forest near the mountain pass, so they continued to move deeper into the woods.
Doubao was so anxious that he tripped and fell.
Lian Xiaomin picked him up and was about to continue walking when she suddenly heard him say, "Xiaomin, look, this is my hatchet. They surrounded us here."
Doubao felt distressed when he thought that Wang Xintian was captured by that gang here. The scene of Brother Xintian holding off the crowd and letting him run first kept appearing in his mind.
Taking the hatchet, the two continued to search in the mountains.
"Brother Doubao, tell me, where can so many people live in this mountain? Is there any cave?"
"Yes, there is, but you have to go quite deep inside... Oh, there is a thatched house in the direction ahead."
"That was where a hunter lived before. He was a bad person and didn't associate with others. He left later." Doubao said, "Let's go take a look at the thatched house."
After walking for about another half an hour, we were already quite far away from the mountain pass. The forest was lush and leafy, blocking out the moonlight, and it was pitch black.
From time to time, the sounds of wild animals could be heard in the woods, breaking the silence of the night.
It was pitch dark, and looking for someone in this vast forest was like walking into an endless maze.
However, the two men were eager to rescue Wang Xintian and did not give up. They searched horizontally and moved forward without stopping.
Lian Xiaomin followed Doubao three or four meters behind, releasing his mental power to observe the surroundings and remain vigilant.
The person walking in front came to a stream, stopped and turned off the flashlight.
"Xiao Min, not far ahead is the thatched house. There is a very thin stream here. I remember it very clearly." Doubao said in a low voice.
If there really is someone in the house nearby, we might run into the sentry at any time, so we have to turn off the lights and move slowly.
Lian Xiaomin nodded, and the two of them lightened their steps and continued moving forward.
Until they got closer and closer, and could see the light in the distance, they all breathed a deep breath.
Finally found where that group of people were!
Wang Xintian might have been brought here.
Doubao put the gun on his waist, held the hatchet tightly in his hand, and was ready to act according to the instructions of the people around him.
Lian Xiaomin was not in a hurry. She signaled him to hide behind the grass next to him and observe the situation.
At this time, she secretly used her mental power to explore the situation over there.
There were three people outside the thatched hut. They had lit a small fire and were sitting around it, roasting a rabbit.
There was a wooden bed in the room, with two people sitting on it, discussing something in low voices.
In the corner next to the wall, there was a man sitting on the ground, tied up with ropes, with wounds on his face and body, and he had fainted. It was Wang Xintian!
Lian Xiaomin calmed herself down and shifted her attention to the two people sitting beside the bed, wanting to find out what they were talking about before going in to save them.
There were two people talking. One of them was about forty years old, with dark skin and a beard. The most obvious thing was that he had a scar on his neck that was more than an inch long.
The man's calf seemed to be injured, and his trouser legs were rolled up, revealing the thick white gauze wrapped around them.
He put his legs on the bed and sat against the headboard.
It was probably the person Wang Xintian shot with a shotgun before.
Lian Xiaomin quickly remembered that the group of people described by Qian Ye as buying medicine and inquiring about Zhang Wenyong was led by a man with a scar on his neck.
Judging from the age and appearance, they all match, it must be this person!
Next to him, sitting on the edge of the bed, was another person who was a little younger.
He was in his early thirties, with rough skin and pockmarks on his face, a stocky build, and shifty eyes.
The pockmarked man was speaking in a low voice: "Brother Yu, what do you think? If the big bandit leader takes his thugs to Sandagou tonight and smashes the kilns, can we find the gold and silver treasures we lost in the mountains?"
