Chapter 49 Uncle, Please Be Kind
Ding Xiaodie hurried to the kitchen and immediately asked her mother to light a fire and boil water. Just as she poured the packet of medicine into the water and threw the white A4 paper into the stove to burn, someone broke open the door and rushed in.
Wang Dafeng stumbled down from upstairs to greet them, and Zhang Xiu's hands were shaking as he lit the fire.
As for the little brat Ding Xiaodie, it was enough for her to just show a look of horror on her face.
Their method was actually very risky. Fortunately, only two people came in, one was the leader, and the other was his soldier. They were dressed very strangely, and their hairstyles were completely different from those of the people from Qi and Yan.
But for Ding Xiaodie and Zhang Xiu, who had seen the fashion of the 21st century, this was just ethnic clothing.
Wang Dafeng was so scared that she was shaking with fear, stammering and mumbling something, pointing at Zhang Xiu and her daughter, as if saying that they were mute.
"Hmph, stop pretending!"
The team leader suddenly spoke something in Chinese, startling all three of them.
Wang Dafeng was so frightened that he fell to his knees.
Seeing this, Ding Xiaodie and her mother had no choice but to kneel down as well.
The leader with tattoos sneered, "Hehe, you old woman, you are not from the desert at all. Among us, there is no one as ugly as you.
Tell me the truth. Why do you speak the Desert dialect? Even though it's not very good, you must explain it clearly. Could it be that you are a spy?"
After he finished speaking, with a bang, the crescent-shaped scimitar in his hand was directly placed on Wang Dafeng's neck.
The old woman had never seen such a scene before and almost fainted for a moment, but fortunately she knew in her heart that if she didn't give an explanation, she would die.
He must not get dizzy right now, so he hurriedly stammered out an explanation.
It turned out that Wang Dafeng's father was a servant of a businessman in his early years. The businessman had a very big business and often traveled between Da Mo and Qi Yan. Later, he needed to speak the language.
The businessman asked someone to teach her father the desert language, and Wang Dafeng's father was really talented in languages and learned it in a very short time.
What is even more unexpected is that he not only learned it, but also went home to teach his daughter.
Later, because he hadn't talked about it for so many years, Wang Dafeng almost forgot about it!
If the situation hadn't been so urgent that she was forced into a corner, she probably wouldn't have been able to say these words.
So that's what's happening.
Ding Xiaodie was stunned after hearing this.
Learning a language is not easy. What is even more unexpected is that without a language environment, Wang Dafeng can still remember the language that he has not spoken for decades.
This old woman's extraordinary qualities are probably not even known to herself.
Naturally, the team leader also expressed doubts. Perhaps his thoughts were the same as Ding Xiaodie's, so he tightened his knife in disbelief. "How dare you lie? Today is your end."
After saying that, he raised his scimitar!
"Uncle, please spare his life."
Wang Dafeng felt that the other party was going to chop him, and he huddled up in fear. If it weren't for the thought that he didn't want to die, he would have fallen down long ago.
Unexpectedly, Ding Xiaodie suddenly spoke at this time.
"Please, uncle." Ding Xiaodie kowtowed repeatedly. There was no other way. If they used force, they would only die. It was better to surrender.
"Aren't you mute?" The team leader asked angrily when he saw a skinny little girl begging him.
"Maybe grandma didn't express herself clearly. My mother is mute, but I'm not." Ding Xiaodie blinked pitifully, and before the other party could react, she hurriedly said, "Actually, the reason grandma talked to you was just to invite you into the house for a drink and a bite to eat, and then let us go. Grandma often said that her father once said that the Great Desert Kingdom and Qi and Yan were friendly countries in the past, and the people of our two countries were also friendly to each other.
Although... although we don't know what happened between the two countries, but considering that our whole family longs for the desert, can you please let us go?"
After finishing this, Ding Xiaodie immediately looked at her mother and said, "Mom, what food and drinks do we have at home? Take them out and feed these two uncles."
“…”
Zhang Xiu nodded quickly. She acted like a mute very well.
But as soon as she stood up, the soldier put his knife to her neck.
The meaning is very clear, they are afraid that Zhang Xiu will run away!
However, the team leader looked at the three frightened women and did not take them seriously at all.
"You little girl, you're quite talkative at such a young age." The leader raised his knife and pointed it at Ding Xiaodie: "What's your name?"
"My name is Xiaodie, which means butterfly." Ding Xiaodie showed an innocent and lovely smile.
"Xiaodie?" The team leader was still a little bit incredulous. After all, the little girl was too young, probably not even ten years old. But her speech and behavior were very steady and serious, and she was very logical when she spoke.
However, despite his doubts, he had no concerns about his personal safety. After all, these three women were frightened just by the sight of them, so what else could they do?
So the team leader winked at his subordinates and said something.
The man then removed the knife from Zhang Xiu's neck and yelled at Zhang Xiu to prepare food quickly.
Zhang Xiu hurried to the stove and started working.
"Since your family has such a connection with the desert, as long as you can provide us with food and drink, after we kill these townspeople, I promise to spare the lives of your family of three."
Seeing that Zhang Xiu was very obedient, the team leader put away the knife and spoke loudly with pride.
Ding Xiaodie's heart tightened. Kill all the townspeople?
It was obvious that the other party mistook them for residents of Yangliu Town, but that didn't matter. What mattered was killing them all.
When Wang Dafeng heard this, he was so frightened that he fell down on the spot.
"Grandma." Ding Xiaodie quickly ran over and shook her shoulders: "Grandma, wake up, don't die, wake up, wuwuwu!"
Seeing that the old woman was frightened to faint by a single sentence, the team leader and his men laughed so hard that they fell over.
Zhang Xiu, who was busy in front of the stove, also had trembling hands.
Just before, she saw Xiaodie put something into the teapot, but before she could ask what it was, these two people broke in.
She now put the water on the fire to boil it. Previously, she still had a little bit of a saintly mentality, fearing that it was a strong poison, then she would become a murderer.
But when she heard the other party say that they wanted to kill all the villagers, she wished that the poison was arsenic. For the sake of her man Ding Gui and the people in the village, she would not hesitate to become a murderer.
The water soon boiled and two cups of tea were quickly poured and served.
Ding Xiaodie naturally knew that there was something wrong with the water, but she pretended to be crying like a grandmother, and she cried louder and louder, which attracted the other party's attention.
When the two desert soldiers saw a little girl crying for her family, they relaxed their vigilance and poured the tea into their mouths.
