Chapter 105: The Bad Guys Attack
For several days, no one in the Gu family left the house until they and the villagers dug a ditch, and then Gu Feixue brought many people into the city.
There is no way. She needs to be protected now, otherwise who knows when another group of men in black will come and kill her.
Gu Feixue couldn't help but consider whether she should find some thugs. If she encountered any trouble when she went out in the future, she wouldn't be worried that no one would report it, right?
After arriving at the blacksmith shop, Gu Feixue saw the blacksmith still working on the iron, so she went up to him and asked him how her weapon was going.
Someone took out the hidden weapons that had been made in the past few days from the inner room. The workmanship was quite good, so Gu Feixue paid for them directly.
These can be installed in the ditch first. When someone enters without permission and their weight reaches a certain value, it will trigger the sensor scale buried in the ground. At that time, the hidden weapons in the ditch water will be released in the direction of the person.
Of course, the weight setting takes into account the possibility that children may accidentally enter the village, and it only works for adults.
The remaining ones were the second and third hidden weapons. Since time was tight and there were many of them, Gu Feixue planned to come back in a few days to get them.
After paying the money, he took his people to the shop in the city and took a walk around. He found that the workers were rushing to finish the work, so he returned to Gu's house.
Gu Feixue decided to go to the shop with two identities, one was her real identity, and the other was the manager who often inspected the shop, that is, herself in disguise.
Otherwise, she would have to bring so many people with her every time she went out, making it look like she was looking for a fight.
As for the fact that there had to be a manager to look after the shop, she didn't want to burden Wang, so she decided to let Li Tiezhu take on the role.
After returning to the village, he waited until dark, buried the scale underground, and then placed the hidden weapon into the ditch.
All hidden weapons have reverse hooks at the end, and the same rope is hung behind the hooks.
The rope will be tightened in the direction of the person coming based on the information feedback from the scale. The hidden weapon hanging on the rope will be pulled out of the water and stabbed at the person.
Even though the principle is not difficult to understand for a modern person like Gu Feixue, she still couldn't help but marvel at the wisdom of the ancients.
Even modern people find it hard to imagine such an ingenious setting, and we don’t know what the brains of these ancient people were like.
After placing the hidden weapons according to the positions in the formation, the Gu family immediately poured water into the ditch.
The most ingenious thing about this formation is the hidden weapons in the water that are hard to guard against. Once you enter the range, you will become the prey of these hidden weapons.
Of course, this can only stop people who don't have martial arts skills. Those who have martial arts skills or light skills may not adopt the walking method.
So there are still several hidden weapons waiting to catch the turtle in the jar.
After that, there was peace for two consecutive days. When the villagers knew that something happened, they went directly to find Li Tiezhu, the manager of Gujia Farm. Even though the children were playing near the ditch, they were not accidentally injured.
However, at midnight on the third day, bursts of shrill screams were heard outside the Gu family ditch.
When the village chief and the villagers arrived with torches, they saw seven or eight masked men with hidden weapons in their bodies lying outside the Gu family ditch.
There were some machetes emitting cold light scattered under the feet of these people, which looked terrifying.
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts when they saw this.
"There are bad guys sneaking into the village!"
As soon as everyone saw how these people were dressed, they all understood what was going on. Suddenly, everyone felt that it was a wise move for the Gu family to build a ditch.
Otherwise, the Gu family consists of the elderly, the weak, women and children. How can they resist these strong men with weapons?
Gu Feixue was meditating and practicing martial arts on the bed. When she heard the screams outside, she knew that the fish had taken the bait.
By the time the Gu family members had put on their clothes and reached the door, those people no longer had the energy to shout.
In front of everyone, Gu Lang took off the masks of the masked men one by one and found that they were all unfamiliar faces.
"I'm so sorry. I drank some wine tonight and somehow fell asleep in the watchtower."
The villager who was on duty at the watchtower that night apologized to everyone.
The Gu family naturally did not blame anyone. After all, if the person was not asleep, he might have been killed to silence him.
"From now on, we'll keep watch together at night. It'll be harder for everyone, so our wives and children can live in peace."
The village chief made this decision on the spot, but Gu Feixue looked at the parts of the people on the ground where they were hit by hidden weapons.
Sure enough, the blood flowing from the wound was not normal. Although it was not obvious, Gu Feixue still saw the worms in the blood.
It had been quiet for five or six days, but today those people could not hold back and brought in these civilians who had no martial arts skills to test them.
At this time, the village chief asked:
"Miss Gu, what should we do with these people?"
Before Gu Feixue and the others could say anything, the old lady Gu, who usually stayed out of the public eye, came out of the house on her crutches:
"Report to the police! These filthy scoundrels must be brought to justice by the prefect!"
Old Mrs. Gu had been worried about Gu Feixue falling off the cliff these days and caught a cold. She finally got better.
Seeing his mother coming out to face the cold wind, Gu Lang immediately took off his clothes and covered her with them: "Mom, be careful not to catch a cold. I will take care of this matter."
Although Mrs. Gu was old, her demeanor was no less than that of a young person. She opened her tiger eyes and said:
"This matter must be reported to the police! And these people must be beaten up before reporting!"
Gu Feixue watched as the villagers beat up the people on the ground again, and then they packed up the carriage under the cover of night and took the people to the city.
Half an hour later, the Gu family, the village chief, and his eldest son Liu Dazhu used two ox carts to carry these people to the yamen.
At this time, the sky was just getting light. The officer who was opening the door of the yamen was yawning and opening the door. Unexpectedly, he saw the Gu family and a group of people with sharp weapons and covered in blood waiting at the door, ready to beat the drum.
Seeing someone opening the door, the Gu family skipped the step of beating drums to complain and immediately had the criminal brought into the lobby.
Immediately afterwards, Magistrate Liang was also awakened by his servants, who said that the Gu family had been assassinated last night and eight criminals had been arrested and were waiting for interrogation in the yamen.
By the time Liang Jianwei arrived at the prefectural government, half of the criminals had already fallen unconscious, and the remaining ones were in a trance due to excessive bleeding.
Seeing the cold expressions on the Gu family members, he knew that the person on the ground must be the villain who broke into the Gu family at night and attempted to assassinate them.
“Mighty! Mighty!”
"Who ordered you to assassinate the Gu family in the middle of the night? If you tell a lie, I will punish you!"
Many ordinary people were watching outside the yamen. They saw that the criminals on the ground were still holding on for their last breath, but no one answered Liang Jianwei's questions.
It seems that the punishment Liang Jianwei mentioned cannot deter a few people.
Seeing this, Gu Feixue asked Liang Jianwei for instructions and then said:
"If you're poisoned by a Gu, don't worry. I can cure the poison for you. All you need to do is give up the mastermind behind this, and the Gu family will not take your lives!"
A single word that could cure the poison excited those villains, who were pale from excessive blood loss.
"Can you really... ahem... help us get rid of the poison?!"
Gu Feixue nodded coldly upon hearing this: "I never lie!"
