Chapter 126 The parents on the road to escape 24
"Two hundred taels of them are banknotes, which will be used as public funds for the village. We will wait until the next town, and we will give out the cash."
Many people's breathing became heavier.
The clan leader called the names according to their merits and handed out all the cash. The lowest one could get one tael of silver, and the highest one was naturally Yuan Xi and Qi Hu who received 10 taels each. No one had any objections. Although they did not dare to have any objections, they also felt that They deserve it.
Those villagers who did not participate regretted it and secretly vowed to participate next time. Even the aunts in the village had their eyes a little red when they looked at the silver. They thought they could do it. In the days that followed, when the security team was training, a large number of villagers, both men and women, followed behind and practiced secretly. Seeing that they did not disturb the security team's training, Qi Hu turned a blind eye.
The clan leader stood there and looked at the villagers, who wished that another group of bandits would come immediately, and then kill a few bandits to add to the fun. He suddenly felt satisfied. If you have motivation, it will be enough. If you have motivation, it will prove that your money is not in vain.
After boosting morale, the discussion of merit and rewards also came to a successful conclusion.
When Yuan Xi received the silver, he handed it to his second brother.
"Second brother, take it. It's a souvenir of my younger brother's heroic battle."
The family was sitting around the fire. There was an iron pot on top of the fire, and a pot of chicken soup was simmering in it. They took the family's hens with them when they left, and they will kill one tonight to celebrate. When Yuan Xi's grandchildren saw that Dahuang and Erhuang were still there, they immediately breathed a sigh of relief. It was their grandfather's chicken that died.
"Second brother, what are your looks like?"
Yuan Xi turned around and saw that the family who had been staring at him finally calmed down.
Zhang Yuanlin said, "Third brother, aren't you afraid? I heard that you killed several bandits."
He had never thought that his brother was so brave and mentally strong that he could kill someone for the first time without changing his expression. There is still a strange sense of pride in his heart, he is indeed his younger brother, he is so talented.
"What's there to be afraid of? If the bandits don't die, we will die. In this case, we can only ask the bandits to die."
Yuan Xi looked calm and looked at Zhang Yuanlin and others as if to say, you are making too much fuss.
The four Zhang Lei and others who witnessed their father killing the gangster were as quiet as chickens. They had already been reprimanded by their father, and now they just wanted to reduce their presence.
The chicken soup was ready, and the nephew-in-law who was in charge of the soup was the first to serve Yuan Xi a bowl of chicken soup. The others had no objection at all.
In this single battle, Yuan Xi's family status rose to first place.
Different from the joy in Zhangjia Village, the atmosphere in Black Tiger Village was tense.
The bandits who escaped at that time ran back to the village without stopping. The first and third masters were in disbelief when they received the news.
"Only a few of you have escaped? Where is the second master?"
The dozen or so bandits who had escaped were kneeling on the ground, not daring to raise their heads. The last bandit hesitantly said: "The second in command, he, he is dead."
"Fart, the second child is the best among our three brothers. You can escape, let alone him. Tell me, did you sell the second child?"
The head of the family was furious, and just as he was about to break up with the people in Fucheng, he lost one of his generals and about thirty brothers died.
"It's unfair, the boss."
"The first master really doesn't blame us. The second master's death was so sudden that we didn't even react."
The bandits who were kneeling on the ground wanted to complain, but the third master directly interrupted them.
"Tell me, how did my second brother die?"
"Well, originally the second master was fighting with a man back and forth, but then a spear flew out of nowhere and went straight to the second master's vitals. The second master hit the ground in order to avoid the spear. Go away, but that man passed through your heart and stabbed you to death."
"That group of refugees had a large number of people, and each of them had a spear. We had dozens of brothers fighting against three of them each. We were really helpless. We managed to escape with great difficulty."
Looking at the dozen or so brothers kneeling below, all of them were covered in blood, and some had blood holes on their bodies. They were in a miserable state. The one who suffered the least pockmark was because he had been paddling from behind the whole time. All the injuries on his body were from falling on the way back. Apart from the less blood, he looked worse than the others.
"Okay, please step back."
After everyone left, only the eldest master and the third master were left in the room.
"Brother, is this the end of the second brother's death?"
"When did I say forget it? How can we just forget about the friendship between our three brothers for so many years?"
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's gather our troops right away, catch up, kill that group of refugees, and avenge our second brother."
"Third brother, wait."
The Third Master was anxious, "What are you waiting for? If you don't catch up, he will run away."
"We have already told our subordinates to pack their luggage. There is such a big movement. I don't believe that the people in Fucheng have not placed people in our village. If we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave. When the army is encircled and suppressed, how can we avenge the second brother if we lose our lives? "
The third master's reason returned, his brows furrowed, and he asked: "Brother, what should we do next?"
"According to the plan, we will leave immediately after packing our luggage." The boss looked like he had the wisdom in his mind. "We are not going anywhere. We can go in the direction of the group of refugees. As long as we find them, we are afraid that we will not be able to get revenge."
It makes sense when the Third Master hears this.
After the two discussed it, they commanded their men. After dark, Black Tiger Village packed their luggage and hurried out of the Black Tiger Village's territory overnight.
The next day, Fucheng's army surrounded Black Tiger Village. Unexpectedly, Black Tiger Village was deserted.
The angry general who led the team asked his men to set fire to Black Tiger Village, and asked a few soldiers to follow him along the way, but no one was seen. In the end, he let it go.
Everyone in Zhangjia Village didn't know that a group of bandits were following behind them. After discussing their merits and giving rewards, the villagers were in high spirits and hurried on their way much faster.
Of course, Yuan Xi is an exception.
After he signed in this morning and learned the news, he felt a little worried and had some emotion on his face. He guessed that Black Tiger Village was colluding with officials in Fucheng, but he did not expect that Black Tiger Village would suddenly move and no longer planned to hang out in Fucheng.
Before leaving, they dedicated themselves to plundering Zhangjiacun, but the second leader of Black Tiger Village died in their hands. This feud was completely forged. Now that their group is behind Zhangjiacun, Yuan Xi is a little hesitant to change the route, or to ambush and kill them directly.
"Dad, is there something behind you? Why do you keep looking back? What's behind you?"
Zhang Yan, the third child, looked at his father with a sad look on his face and asked with concern.
"You drive the car, and I'll go find Huzi."
He threw the reins in his hand to Lao San, jumped out of the car and walked towards Qi Hu.
"Tiger."
Qi Hu was right behind Yuan Xi's family and was at the end of the team.
"Uncle Zhang, why are you here? Is there something going on ahead?"
"No, Huzi, I want to ask you something. Do you think the people from Black Tiger Village will catch up and retaliate against us?"
Qi Hu thought seriously, "We have already left the boundaries of Black Tiger Village. They will not retaliate against us in a big way. After all, we are not easy to mess with. Of course, the farther away from Black Tiger Village, the safer it is. Hasn't the patriarch already given the order? Hurry as quickly as possible, at our current speed we can leave Xiyuan Mansion in a few days."
Under normal circumstances, Qi Hu's analysis was correct, but who made them unlucky enough to run into a group of bandits who wanted to move.
Yuan Xi couldn't tell him directly. Black Tiger Village was right behind them. Although it was still some distance away, their 300 or so people, oh, now there were about 200 people, were definitely farther away than Zhangjia Village. Fast, even faster if there are horses.
