Chapter 166 Xiao Yuanbao, come and save us!
Dabao also noticed it. She was yawning just now, but now after playing with the little white-haired cat, her condition is much better.
Once little Yuanbao falls asleep, it may be impossible to wake him up.
The robbers might come soon, so my sister can't sleep.
Dabao touched his sister's messy hair and praised her, "Okay, our little Yuanbao is the best! Let's keep it up."
As he was speaking, there was another big commotion outside.
"Someone is coming? Is it the militia? It seems to be the militia..."
"No, it's not the militia, it's the robbers, the robbers are chasing us!"
"Ahhh! How did the robbers catch up with us so quickly? What should I do?"
"Uncle Li Zheng, what should we do?"
"Xiao Yuanbao, come and save us!"
Just what you worry about, that's what will happen.
Dabao frowned, "Normally, the robbers wouldn't follow so quickly. We just arrived and haven't been here for a while."
"Go and have a look."
The little white-haired boy tactfully let go of his little master.
Dabao took Xiao Yuanbao and hurried out. Cai was worried, so she followed them out, and Xiao Baimao also trotted after them.
The villagers near the extremely dark land were in a state of chaos.
Everyone wanted to escape, but they were too exhausted to do so.
They all stared at what was happening in the dark place.
In this extremely dark place, in the late night, a vast expanse of white fog shrouded it.
The range of the fog is the range of the extremely dark land. The place where the villagers are now is the edge and is not covered by the cage.
This white mist is cold and gloomy air, which can also disrupt people's vision and make it difficult for them to see clearly.
They only saw figures walking towards them. They were dressed like robbers, all wearing black clothes and black scarves.
I could still hear them talking.
"Third boss, we've caught up with them! They're just ahead..."
"Yes, I heard the noise. Let's see where they are going this time!"
"Talk less and hold your breath. This mist is poisonous."
"It's okay, Third Master. We are strong and have killed so many people. We have evil spirits on us. This evil mist dare not get close to us. It's a piece of cake."
"Hahaha, you're right. I'll see where they run to. I can still pick a few young wives and rape them first and then kill them!"
…
The villagers were shocked when they heard these remarks.
I started crying out of fear.
Tang Xianming in the crowd spoke in a strange tone again, "Look, run! We risked our lives to escape here, but what's the point? We were caught up anyway. The militia is gone, and now it's a dead end. Who among you can still run? It's all because of some people who are so smart that they are leading us to our death!"
Uncle Li Zheng shouted angrily, "Tang Xianming, shut up! Don't you think it's not chaotic enough at this moment?"
Tang Xianming snorted coldly, "Tang Youde, stop showing off! It's because you have no moral integrity that our village was targeted by robbers and attacked. In addition, you were a poor leader and listened to the villains, so you led us, the people, and our property, all the way to a dead end. What qualifications do you have to shout in front of us? It's all your fault!"
Li Zheng's uncle's name is Tang Youde.
Normally everyone addresses him respectfully and rarely calls him by his name.
It was obvious that Tang was extremely daring and was willing to take the risk.
Uncle Li Zheng was so angry that he was shaking. Aunt Li Zheng hurried to support him and said, "Don't be angry, old man. At the critical moment, everyone still depends on you. You don't have to be angry with him."
Sun Zizhuer was also behind him, pulling at the corner of his clothes, signaling him not to be angry.
Uncle Li Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Here, Dabao and his friends just happened to arrive.
Dabao spoke coldly, "Tang Xianming, what nonsense are you talking about? The robbers attacked the village, it was the robbers' fault, it wasn't Master Li Zheng who colluded with the robbers to send the robbers? You are a man without moral integrity. I brought your family all the way here to escape and didn't let you be killed by the robbers in the first place. You don't know how to be grateful, and you are blaming them. Are you still a human being?"
"What's the point of escaping here? I'm exhausted. If I were in the village, I wouldn't have to escape. I'm willing to give all my property to the robbers, and the robbers won't kill us. We are willing to pay money in exchange for our lives. What's wrong? Even if the money is gone, the life is still there! As long as I'm alive, I'll have a green mountain and I won't be afraid of running out of firewood..."
Uncle Li Zheng had recovered. He narrowed his eyes and said, "Tang Xianming, what do you mean? Don't run away, just let the robbers rob and kill you? Don't resist?"
Tang Xianming stiffened his neck, "Yes! What's the point of resisting? There are hundreds of them here, all strong and brave. You can't beat them, and you can't escape them. You should know the situation and be a wise man, beg the robbers to spare your life, and exchange your property for your life. The robbers are all good men, and they are kind-hearted. If you give them money, they will definitely spare our lives."
"What about the poor families? They don't have money to give? So they just let the killing go on?"
"If we have no money, we can at most be beaten up by the robbers. If we don't resist, it will be fine if we are beaten half to death. Can't we be beaten just because we are poor? Besides, even if we escape this time, if we anger the robbers, how will we survive in Tangjia Village when they come again? The village will be broken up! Our ancestors have lived in Tangjia Village for generations. If the village is broken up, how can we face our ancestors in the underworld?" Tang Xianming said confidently.
When people are in despair and have no other options, Tang Xianming's philosophy of admitting defeat and accepting defeat makes many people doubtful.
"How about we just accept our fate and give all our belongings to the robbers so that they can spare our lives?"
"As long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood."
"Don't run away! There's no point in running away. I can die with my old bones, but my grandchildren are still young..."
"Uncle Xianming, please lead us to surrender!"
Tang Xianming curled his lips, complacent, "I'm not Li Zheng. Even if I lead you to surrender, the robbers won't agree. We have to let Li Zheng come..."
Uncle Li Zheng almost couldn't catch his breath again.
"Tang Xianming, you are confused! If you allow bandits to attack the village, they will think that Tangjia Village is easy to bully and come every now and then. How can Tangjia Village survive? We are all being kept busy by bandits."
Tang Xianming said, "We'll talk about it later. Now we have to save our lives. The robbers are coming soon. You tell us later. If you can't bring yourself to do it, you can let me take over the position. I will lead the villagers to save their lives..."
This is what he thought in his heart.
I've been brewing it for so many times, just waiting for this moment.
Uncle Li Zheng was actually shaken when he saw hundreds of villagers waiting to die here.
He couldn't take his fellow villagers with him to escape, so he had to beg the robbers for money to save their lives. Deep down, he was unwilling to do so. There was another reason. He had taken his fellow villagers to escape so far, and the robbers had already been angered. If he went to beg them again, they might not agree easily.
