Chapter 211 The Lotus Sect is coming!
Gao Mengli stood by the roadside for a while with a frown. Just as she was about to turn back, she saw a crow fly over.
"Save me! Save me!"
Gao Mengli thought she had misheard. She rubbed her ears and looked up at the crow in surprise.
Crows circled overhead, cawing incessantly, "Help me!"
She was completely confused.
After all, she had seen mynahs talk, but she had never seen a crow speak.
For a moment, she was surprised and took a second look.
Du Hao, who was supervising the construction by the roadside, noticed that his boss was staring at the crow circling in the sky for a few more seconds.
He squatted down and picked up a small pebble. With a "whoosh," the pebble flew out.
The circling crow was hit precisely by the stone, losing several feathers on the spot.
The crow's body also fell straight down.
Gao Mengli quickly stepped forward, but as soon as she stretched out her hand, she felt a weight on her palm.
She quickly clenched her palm and grabbed it.
The crow fluttered a few times in her hand, then stopped moving.
Gao Mengli's face lit up with joy, and she happily grabbed the crow's wings and ran home!
The Left Protector, who was working by the roadside, was completely stunned. This person had taken his "Holy Crow".
They were taken away.
Suddenly, with a "snap," the Left Protector gasped in pain.
"What are you daydreaming about? Get to work, or you won't get any dinner tonight."
Du Hao viciously lashed out at the Left Protector with his whip, pointing it at the crowd: "You're all trying to slack off, and the road is being repaired at such a snail's pace."
"Hurry up! If you slack off or daydream again, nobody's eating tonight!"
Left Protector gritted his teeth, glared hatefully at Du Hao, and reluctantly bent down to continue moving bricks, but his eyes kept drifting towards the direction where Gao Mengli had left.
The raven's return proved that his sect must have arrived nearby. Once they arrived, their death was imminent; he would tear them to pieces.
Thinking of this, the Left Protector narrowed his eyes in a sinister manner, and a twisted sneer appeared on his face.
Du Hao frowned at the left protector's smile, grabbed his whip, and charged forward, lashing out and cursing, "Laugh my ass! You dare laugh? Laugh again, and I'll whip you to death!"
The left protector was startled by the sudden blow and instinctively covered his head with his arms, curling up his body.
"Master Du, stop, stop, I'll never dare to do it again..." The Left Protector begged for mercy, but his heart was filled with boundless hatred.
He secretly went over in his mind all the punishments that would be inflicted on Du Hao after he fell into his hands.
Du Hao slapped him a few times, and hearing the Left Protector's pleas for mercy, his anger subsided slightly, and he stopped.
"I'm telling you, stop thinking about slacking off all day long. Get to work! If this road isn't fixed, it will delay important village matters, and none of you can afford the consequences!"
Lotus Sect members quickly sped up their work, daring not to slack off in the slightest.
The Left Protector dared not be sarcastic on the surface; a wise man knows when to yield, so he endured it!
Meanwhile, Gao Mengli happily ran home carrying the crow.
As soon as he entered the courtyard, he shouted to Lin Xi, "Xi Xi, Xi Xi, I got a talking crow!"
Lin Xi was drying herbs in the yard when she heard Gao Mengli's shout. She was so excited that her hand trembled and she almost spilled the herbs all over the ground.
A talking crow?!
He doesn't care that a myna bird can talk, but he'd like to see how a crow can talk!
Lin Xi put down her things with a look of surprise, and then watched as Gao Mengli rushed in, carrying a dark black crow in her hand.
The crow looked listless, and its feathers were a bit messy.
Gao Mengli presented the crow to Lin Xi, saying, "This crow can talk; it's quite magical!"
Lin Xi took it with both hands, examined it closely for a long time, and became somewhat anxious. "Why does this crow look so lifeless? Mengli, are you kidding me? I've looked at it from every angle, but it doesn't seem to be talking."
Gao Mengli grabbed the crow again and slapped it twice with both hands, "Dead bird, why don't you say something!"
Ah Li was speechless at the actions of the two people in front of her.
What a childish brat...
The next day, a birdcage appeared on the door of the courtyard house.
The birdcage contained the same crow from yesterday.
Lin Xi held a white bamboo worm and stepped over the threshold from outside the door.
The crow flapped its wings and cried out excitedly, "Welcome! Welcome!"
Lin Xi laughed: "You learn quickly! You were so listless yesterday, but you're so energetic today!"
As he spoke, he handed over the bamboo worm.
The crow eagerly pecked at the insect and swallowed it in a few bites.
Lin Xi took out another worm, stepped out the door, and saw a crow excitedly shouting, "Thank you for coming! Thank you for coming!"
Ah Li, sitting on the roof, twitched at the corner of his mouth.
This person spent the whole morning playing with birds and didn't seem tired at all...
Little did Ah Li know that Lin Xi was "installing" a "doorbell".
"It's not good, it's not good!"
Suddenly, Wang Gougou's figure came running from a distance, rushing hurriedly towards Lin Xi's house.
Seeing this, Lin Xi quickly went to greet him: "Gou Gou, what happened?"
Wang Gougou was panting heavily, his hands supporting his knees, gasping for breath: "Brother Lin Xi, at the village entrance... a group of people dressed in white have come to the village entrance, claiming to be some kind of Right Protector."
They all looked fierce and menacing, and right now...right now they're shouting at the village entrance!
"What? The Right Protector?"
Lin Xi was startled. Could it be that the Left Protector was their accomplice?
Hearing Wang Gougou's voice, Gao Mengli ran out of the courtyard, "Right Protector? Lotus Sect?"
Wang Gougou nodded, panting heavily, and said, "It should be the Lotus Sect without a doubt, because at first glance they don't seem like good people. And as soon as they arrived, they started shouting and demanding that someone be handed over, or they would storm into the village."
Lin Xi's expression turned serious. He turned to Gao Mengli and asked, "Mengli, shall we go take a look?"
Gao Mengli frowned. "How many people came?"
Wang Gougou scratched his head. "There were probably a hundred or so, and they were all carrying weapons. They looked like they were not to be trifled with."
Gao Mengli nodded. "Okay, tell the villagers not to go to the village entrance. I'll go check it out right now."
Wang Gougou nodded, then went to notify the villagers who were working nearby.
Gao Mengli was leading Lin Xi to the village entrance when she suddenly remembered that others had weapons. She immediately returned home, retrieved the long black box she had hidden, and carried it on her back.
Reaching the doorway, he grabbed Lin Xi, took A Li with him, and hurried towards the village entrance.
At the entrance of Wangyue Village, the two sides were locked in a standoff.
Because after the Right Protector got off the carriage, he threw down the tightly bound people, namely Jiang Yue's mother and brother.
Jiang Yue was crying her heart out, but Zhu Mei and Yang Qing held her back tightly, afraid that she would rush forward and be torn to pieces.
Gao Mengli, Lin Xi, and A Li rushed to the village entrance and saw the scene before them.
The Right Protector stood to the side, a smug sneer on his face, toying with a dagger in his hand, and shouted loudly, "Hand over Jiang Yue, or I'll kill these two!"
