Cultivation Starts From Planting Sweet Potatoes

Chapter 11: .The bandits enter the village

It was just getting dark this day, Zhang He practiced the swordsmanship randomly, and was having dinner when he heard a knock on the door.

The old man Zhang opened the door and saw the Fat Tiger brothers.

"What's the matter with you two? Come inside."

The two brothers looked a little embarrassed at this time, the quilt wrapped around the hemp poles had all gone, and the two of them had a lot of fresh mud on their bodies, apparently they fell on the road.

"You two haven't had dinner yet, come on! Sit down and eat together."

The old man Zhang had a good impression of this pair of brothers. Even though he was usually shrewd and stingy, it was rare to invite them to dinner generously at this time.

"Big brother! The bandits are coming to your village to rob you, run away!"

Fat Hu was also very heartbroken. After saying this, he took a bowl of corn rice that Old Man Zhang handed over, and took a big mouthful of corn rice into his mouth.

"When did it happen? How did you know?"

Zhang He subconsciously touched the Tang Dao on his waist, what should come is still here.

"It's like this..."

It turned out that the two of them had been helping Zhang He's house to deliver firewood, which was known to some bandit spies long ago.

This afternoon, the two were captured by bandits, and they carefully questioned Zhang Jialing and Zhang He's family, and then they were imprisoned.

Taking advantage of the negligence of the guards, the two of them escaped secretly, and then came all the way to Zhangjialing.

When Fat Hu said this, he couldn't help wiping tears: "Wow...wow...I managed to earn three cents, but it was all taken away by the god-killed bandits."

Zhang He saw that he was crying and shoved rice into his mouth at the same time. Tears were swallowed together with the rice. He was about to comfort him, but he saw Magan took out two copper coins from the torn quilt on his body.

"Hey! Brother, why are you still hiding two coins?"

Seeing these two coins, Fat Hu was in a slightly better mood, but he was still very sad about his three coins.

This is what their brothers saved from their mouths during this period of time.

When asked about the news, the old man Zhang had already gone out in winter clothes. This is a big event and he needs to deal with it with the whole village.

Of course, their family can also sneak away, but there are many people who helped them when their family was in trouble, and they should never forget their roots.

There are dozens of households in Zhangjialing, and the total population is only four or five hundred people. After getting the news, more than one hundred people have gathered together with anxious faces.

It is not a trivial matter for bandits to enter the village. Some time ago, after being attacked by bandits in Shanghe Village next door, dozens of people died in the village, there was not a grain of food left in the village, and several houses were burned.

Shanghe Village was completely destroyed. Without food, they could only borrow money, or go to other places to seek a living and join the army of refugees.

Due to the lack of time, everyone quickly discussed a solution.

The old, weak, women and children in the village all evacuated and went into the back mountain to hide.

As for the complete withdrawal, it is impossible. The bandits will definitely not be reconciled. Setting fire to the house will make them homeless.

Moreover, the bandits can follow their footprints into the mountains, and it is still difficult for a large group of people to escape.

Now we can only let the old and the weak retreat, leaving the young and strong to fight the bandits in the village.

These days, anyone can fight to the death for a bite to eat, and the bandits want to kill them. These peasants who usually farm the land can naturally take up their hoes and fight for their lives.

Zhangjialing villagers usually have a little conflict with each other, but they can unite with each other.

According to the custom handed down from generation to generation, each household will provide a portion of the food, so that the young and strong can have a full meal before the war.

In addition, in the unfortunate event of death in battle, the whole village will pool money together to give a pension to the deceased's family.

These are the rules that have been handed down from the surrounding villages for thousands of years. When everyone is discussing, they are re-proposed so that everyone knows what they are, and naturally no one will object.

Zhang He's family is not short of food, especially sweet potatoes. There are tens of thousands of catties stacked in his space. Therefore, he generously took out more than 200 catties of boiled sweet potatoes, so that everyone can eat enough at one time.

At this time, all the old and weak in the village had already retreated, and Zhang He asked the Fat Tiger brothers to retreat with them.

There are still more than 100 young adults left in the village. At this time, they are all stuffing food into their mouths. It is rare to have a full meal once a year.

When the villages in this world were established, they considered the problem of defense, and there was only one narrow road to Zhangjialing.

At the fourth watch, a group of bandits reached the entrance of the village along the path.

Zhang He hid behind a wall with a bow and arrow in his hand. Old Man Zhang followed him, holding a sharpened pole in his hand, which could be regarded as a spear.

The rest of the young men also took poles or hoes and hid nearby.

Under the sparse torchlight, this group of bandits appeared indistinctly shadowy, and it was difficult to see how many people there were.

Although the young man hiding at the entrance of the village used to speak eloquently, he was unavoidably nervous at this time. His palms were out of Han, and a few people could not restrain their hands and feet from trembling.

Zhang He performed the nameless exercises, and his heart was transparent, like an ancient well without waves.

The moon is very bright tonight. Of the three moons in the sky, two are bright.

Zhang He's eyesight was also much stronger than that of ordinary villagers, and he could already see the bandits on the opposite side clearly.

An arrow has been wound, the longbow is drawn into a full moon, and the arrow is aimed at the face of the pig's kidney under the torch ahead.

This pig kidney face is walking in the middle, with a fierce look, it must be a bandit leader or something.

"Hey!" With a sound, the arrow flew out.

Then the arrow shot crookedly under Zhang He's gaze, nailed to the chest of a horse face next to it, and let out a scream.

"Kill in!"

Pig kidney face pulled out a pig-killing knife, shouted loudly and rushed towards the village.

At this moment, countless sharpened wooden sticks flew out from the entrance to the village of UU reading www.uukanshu.com, with some stones, torches and other objects mixed in between them, all falling into the bandits, causing the bandits to scream.

There were a lot of people who broke their blood on the spot. Although they were not immediately fatal, they greatly damaged the morale of this group of bandits.

When Zhang He shot the second arrow, he learned his lesson and aimed at a big cake face next to Pig Kidney.

"Hey," he shot down, and another scream came. This time, he hit the big cake face exactly.

"It's still too little practice."

With a sigh in his heart, he carried the longbow behind his back, pulled out the Tang Dao, and rushed forward.

The old man Zhang followed closely with a pole, and did not forget to remind carefully, "Run slower!"

The pig waist face was the most ferocious, and he seemed to be the leader of this band of bandits. The young man who rushed faster just now was stabbed by him.

Zhang He rushed to the head and slashed down with a knife. The pig kidney face quickly blocked with the killing knife, but the force from the knife made his arm go numb.

Seeing that Zhang He was slashing again with a knife, the pig's waist face could only raise the knife to meet him again, but he didn't find a sharpened pole, and stabbed it out of Zhang He's back obscenely.

The old man Zhang had eaten his fill recently, and his strength increased greatly. The pole used enough strength to stab the pig's kidney in the face.

The other party wanted to struggle, but Zhang He stabbed him on the head again, and he was completely dead.

Next, Zhang He specially picked those fierce bandits to attack, and the old man Zhang followed behind him to be vigilant.

Zhang He found that he was not only much stronger than these bandits, but his reaction speed was also much faster.

In his eyes, the movements of many bandits were like slow motion, and they had no threat to him.
