Chapter 314: Doing Bad Things Has Risks
Not only are there ladders along the wall, but each ladder is also equipped with a tall wooden rack. There are stairs made of wooden boards on the side of the wooden rack, which makes it very convenient to climb up one step at a time.
The wooden shelf was filled with stone baskets, and there was an empty space next to it. At this moment, a quick person had already brought two wooden buckets of water over, one bucket was sent up, and the other bucket was placed below to be replaced at any time.
Each ladder and wooden shelf is equipped with five people, three of whom are responsible for transporting goods continuously, and the other two replace each other. Once one person is tired or injured, the other will immediately replace him!
When Shen Qing ran over quickly, he saw that everyone had already taken their positions, with hundreds of people busy but not chaotic.
Jiang Yu and Jiang Shui carried a basket full of steamed buns, steamed bread and flower rolls on their backs, and held red beans and portions of brown sugar wrapped in oil paper in their hands. They stood next to the big fire at the back.
Liu Cuihua was carrying thatch and spreading it flat at the bottom, Zheng Hui was adding dry twigs on top, laying them out layer by layer, Zhao Mingyue stopped her horse, and Pan Di and others brought thick firewood and big tree roots to pile on the top - tree roots were the most resistant to burning, and it would be dark in an hour or so, and the burning fire could also serve as a lighting.
And as long as there is a fire burning inside, it will be easy to add firewood later without worrying about it not burning.
If you feel cold, you can warm up your whole body by getting close to the stove for a while.
After everything was arranged and everyone had left, Zhao Mingyue took out a tinder, blew it, and then set fire to the thatch on the bottom layer in each gap.
Seeing Jiang Yu and Jiang Shui bringing some food over, Liu Cuihua greeted them warmly, "Pull out a few burning sticks and light up the stove over there so we can boil water and heat up our food."
It was not yet dinner time, and it had just begun, so I had neither the time nor the appetite to eat or drink.
Jiang Yu and Jiang Shui also understood and nodded. They walked to the other side to the simple stove hole made of stones and put down the backpack, then returned home to get the iron pot and steamer.
I had thought of roasting it next to the fire, but after repeated consideration, I decided to use a steamer to heat it uniformly. This is faster and saves manpower, and the opponents don’t have to worry about eating.
Shen Qing had already climbed up to the observation tower and saw Liu Sheng directing people to bring in ladder after ladder.
The wood is so fresh that the bark hasn't even been peeled off. You can tell at a glance that it was cut and made right after it arrived.
Shen Qing breathed a sigh of relief.
It's better if it's not a ladder.
She bought a few books on ancient siege methods and weapons and equipment at the mall and read them. Among them, ladders, flying bridges, and catapults were the most terrifying;
The person who ordered Liu Sheng was not only rich but also powerful. She had always been worried that he would use his power to borrow these siege weapons.
No self is the best...
Shen Qing suddenly remembered that both times, they had relied on the help of the victims! They had never borrowed the power of the government. Does this mean that Ah Bing was on the right side? The people who wanted her life were afraid that others would know, so they always did it secretly!
After drinking the medicine, Ah Bing still couldn't remember what happened in the past, but it didn't matter. The nanny who was in charge of the granary must know something. She believed that Ah Bing had made up her mind, and she also believed that Ah Bing had a way to get what she wanted to know!
"Hey, Shen Qing! If you let Huo Bing out, I will bring people back immediately and spare the lives of all the villagers. How about it?" Liu Sheng stood opposite and shouted like a favor.
Shen Qing didn't answer, but asked the people who followed him: "How much silver did Liu Sheng promise? Did you get it?
If you don't get it and it's just verbal talk, I feel it's not worth it for you if you don't get the money after working hard!
After all, we won't show mercy later, and you guys are really risking your lives."
The men looked left and right, thinking that they really didn't get the money!
Yes, what if Liu Sheng refuses to pay the debt when we get back?
If they are injured or dead, won’t they be unable to ask for it even if they want it?
The men carrying the wooden ladder stepped back unconsciously, their eyes darting around, thinking about a way to retreat.
Liu Sheng was anxious!
This will shake his military morale.
This Shen Qing is so hateful!
He shouted anxiously, "Don't listen to her. How can a woman know the agreement and trust between us men? Don't worry, I, Liu Sheng, will give you everything I promised when I get back!"
If you don't believe me, ask the men who came with me last time in the team, did I, Liu Sheng, give them all? Did I not keep a single cent? "
Shen Qing: ...a promise and trust between men? Very good, let's see what you can come up with when you see the empty nest~
A man in the team immediately stood up to support Liu Sheng's words. The hesitant men stopped and looked forward.
Liu Sheng wiped his forehead with his sleeve and let out a long breath.
No, the longer the night, the more trouble he would have. He had to attack as soon as possible!
We can't waste time talking to them. The more we talk, the later it gets, and the more disadvantageous it will be for us. After all, eating, drinking, defecating and urinating will all be troublesome!
He shouted in encouragement, "Brothers, stop talking nonsense with women, let's charge! They are only about a hundred people in total, including the old and the young. It's easy for two or three of us to deal with one of them!
Once we rush in and capture them, won't their belongings be yours to take as they please? Then everyone can have a prosperous new year!"
The ferocious men immediately shook the swords in their hands, their eyes full of excitement!
Okay, okay, they love this feeling of getting something for nothing the most.
"Go! Show them some color and let them know how powerful our grandfathers are!"
"I just don't believe that a small wall can stop us? They really underestimate us!"
In the restless atmosphere, the fierce man with a scar on his face rushed to the front, and the man behind him followed closely behind him, setting up a wooden ladder and climbing up.
Shen Qing: .....She did remind them clearly that this was their own choice. If they were to get injured or die, or return without any food or money, then it wouldn't be their fault, right?
After all, doing bad things is risky.
Wow!
When the people climbed halfway, a bucket of cold water was poured on their heads. Before they could react, another bucket of water was poured on the men holding the ladder on both sides.
From head to toe, it feels so sour in the coldest days of winter!
Shen Qing, who was watching from the observation deck, couldn't help but shiver all over, feeling cold.
"Ahhh, it's so cold!"
"Ah, these people are so vicious!"
"It's over, it's over. The cold I'd catch from soaking in cold water in this weather could be fatal."
"What should I do? I didn't bring any clothes. I'm freezing to death!"
"Never mind, go light a fire and keep warm!"
......
Jiang Datao laughed and said, "You deserve it! I tried to tell you to come up, but you didn't listen. Now we're just pouring cold water on you. If you still dare to come up, we'll throw manure on you!"
It is impossible to throw manure, after all, manure water is excellent fertilizer and cannot be wasted.
Besides, this is where they live, so they are reluctant to destroy it.
But there is enough cold and hot water!
