Chapter 226 I’ll See You Later
Zhou Huaining looked at Hawkeye and said, "The brothers in your village are much more enthusiastic than you."
Hawkeye's face darkened and he said nothing.
Zhou Huaining turned to the bandits and said, "I really want to stay a few more days, but your boss insisted that I leave now. I really have no choice!"
When the bandits heard this, they immediately laughed. How powerful was the boss! The boss was really taking advantage of the county magistrate!
"Boss, since the county magistrate doesn't want to leave, please keep him for two days!"
Hawkeye didn't want to pay attention to them and pushed Zhou Huaining towards the mountain gate.
After arriving at the mountain gate, I saw a lot of people standing on the opposite side of the cliff. They were the guards who broke into the mountain stronghold last night.
When those people saw Zhou Huaining, they all shouted excitedly, "Sir, are you okay?"
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm fine." Zhou Huaining looked in a good mood.
"Let them all retreat down the mountain." said Hawkeye.
There are so many experts guarding the opposite side. If they rush in again when the suspension bridge is lowered, wouldn’t that be terrible?
Zhou Huaining shook his head: "I won't say it. I didn't sleep all night last night, didn't eat a single bite of breakfast, and I don't even have the energy to speak."
Hawkeye gritted his teeth and shouted to the people on the other side: "You all retreat down the mountain, and he will naturally come down the mountain to meet you!"
The guards naturally didn't want to.
"You Black Eagle Village shouldn't go too far. How dare you, a mere bandit, be so arrogant?"
"You've held the County Magistrate hostage, yet you refuse to repent and continue to demand more. Aren't you afraid we'll wipe you out?"
"You are bandits, and we are officials. We were already giving you face by withdrawing from the Black Eagle Camp last night. You are still pushing your luck. This is simply going too far."
Hawkeye snorted coldly, "If you don't retreat, I won't let you go!"
Zhou Huaining: "Really?"
Hawkeye: "Shut up!"
When the two sides were in a stalemate, a soft and tender voice came, "Come here!"
Immediately afterwards, the baby riding on Ye Yanping's neck appeared, followed by Zhao Xingjian, who was panting from exhaustion.
"Little ancestor!" Hawkeye showed surprise.
"The little ancestor is here!"
The bandits shouted with joy.
If it weren’t for the little ancestor’s advance warning, Black Eagle Village would definitely not have been able to escape this snow disaster.
"What do you call her? Little Ancestor?" Zhou Huaining asked in surprise, "Do you know her?"
Hawkeye ignored him.
He shouted directly to Xiao Jiuer across from him: "Little Ancestor, are you here to see me?"
"Yes." The little baby waved to him sweetly.
Hawkeye said in embarrassment: "Little Ancestor, but I'm being targeted by the government. I can't lower the drawbridge to let you come over now!"
"Um?"
The little dumpling looked at the guards.
Is Hawkeye worried that the guards will launch a sneak attack?
"Cao Cao!" The little baby said in a clear voice.
"Xiao Jiuer, uncle is here." Zhou Huaining responded.
"Are you the uncle of our young ancestor?" the villagers said in unison.
"Yes, you also know Xiao Jiuer?" Zhou Huaining said.
The bandits' faces changed.
Hawkeye's face showed a bit of embarrassment.
It's really like a flood has washed away the Dragon King Temple. How could this disgusting man be the uncle of the little ancestor?
"Cou Cou, let him elbow you!" Xiao Jiuer pointed at the guards.
When the guards heard this, they were unhappy.
They came to Xianchuan County with Zhou Huaining, so they naturally knew that the little baby in front of them was not Zhou Huaining's real relative.
"Little baby, why can't you tell the difference between good and bad?"
"They are bandits, thieves. How can you let us go?"
"He Meng is my friend."
Xiao Jiuer blinked her big round eyes.
"Cou Cou is also my friend, please don't argue with me, okay?"
The guards naturally didn't take the little baby's words to heart.
They were so humiliated last night that they couldn't let themselves be threatened by the bandits today.
Seeing that both sides were unwilling to give in, Ye Yanping decided to be a peacemaker, after all, he knew both sides.
"Hawkeye, let Mr. Zhou come over. Mr. Zhou is indeed a guest of the Ye family."
Hawkeye said loudly: "Okay, I agree to whatever the little ancestor said!"
Ye Yanping then said to Zhou Huaining, "Mr. Zhou, you must ensure that your guards will not take advantage of the situation and sneak in when the drawbridge is lowered."
Zhou Huaining nodded and instructed the guards, "After the drawbridge is lowered, everyone stand still and don't move! Do you hear me?"
"Yes, sir."
Crunch.
The suspension bridge was slowly lowered.
"Get lost!"
Hawkeye pushed Zhou Huaining.
Zhou Huaining turned his head and looked at him, and said sincerely: "Don't worry, I won't tell anyone your secret."
But to Hawkeye, this sounded like a threat.
"Don't make me beat you in front of so many people."
Zhou Huaining shook his head. "Okay, let's just pretend we didn't know each other this time. I'll come see you next time."
As he said that, he stepped onto the suspension bridge.
"Yeah, I want to go too."
Little Dumpling pulled Ye Yanping's big hand.
"Is Xiao Jiuer going up the bridge too?"
"Yeah."
"Okay, Daddy will take Xiao Jiuer upstairs."
Ye Yanping held Xiao Jiuer in his arms and went up the suspension bridge.
The three met in the middle of the bridge.
"Xiao Jiu'er..."
Zhou Huaining was about to speak when suddenly, a "swish, swish, swish" sound was heard, and a dense rain of arrows shot towards the bandits opposite in a parabolic shape.
The guards had been planning today's action since they came down the mountain last night. The timing was just right now, as most of the bandits were within shooting range.
"No, who told you to shoot?" Zhou Huaining's eyes were red with anger. "I told you to stand still and don't move!"
Guards: We are standing still!
"Get out of the way!" Ye Yanping shouted.
But there is a mountain gate behind them, and the bandits have nowhere to hide even if they want to.
Seeing the rain of arrows shooting towards the bandits, Ye Yanping sighed in his heart.
Although these people are bandits, they are not evil. The Black Eagle Village has been fighting with government officials and wealthy businessmen for many years, and they have rarely committed robbery. Now they want to do good, but they didn't expect that they would die here today.
"Little ancestor, help!" At the critical moment, someone shouted.
"Hey-yo-"
Xiao Jiuer stretched out her little hand and waved it hard at the rain of arrows in the air. A gust of wind swept by, and the arrows suddenly lost their accuracy and fell into the abyss like kites with lost strings.
This dramatic scene happened so suddenly that both the bandits and the guards were stunned.
The bandits at least knew who did it; they were just shocked.
The guards all looked pale.
How...how did they do that? Is this place haunted?
"Daughter, did you do it?" Ye Yanping's voice trembled.
"That's exactly what she did!" Zhou Huaining was speechless. "I saw it clearly just now! She waved her little hand! A strange wind blew up, and all those arrows fell down!"
The little dumpling lay softly on Ye Yanping's shoulder, "I'm so sleepy!"
Then he closed his eyes and fell into a drowsy sleep.
