Zheng Rong was still preparing dinner in the house. The weather was cold and there was nothing to do, so the family had two meals each day, in the morning and evening. All the families were worried that the bandits would enter the village, so they made an extra meal for their men and then took turns guarding the village. The snow was particularly heavy today. The sound of snow falling could be heard in the house, and there were even the cracking sounds of branches being crushed.

“My heart is always beating, and my eyelids are twitching.” Jiang Shan flicked the snow off his shoulders. Every family in the village sent young men to patrol the village. The Jiang family sent Jiang Da and Jiang Shan.

“I don’t know where the wild boar has been recently. It hasn’t come back for dinner.” Jiang Da looked at the vast white mountain forest and felt a chill in his heart.

Jiang Xi thought for a moment and concluded that the wild boar had probably gone back to recruit more troops. After all, it was the king of wild boars.

“Hahaha, the wild boar left? Then it’s finally my turn to show off! Don’t be afraid, young ladies, I’ll protect you. I’ve been practicing martial arts for many years and have long wanted to come out and show off my skills in the Jianghu. Don’t worry!” The heavy snow sealed the mountain, and the guards who came to pick Yuan Qilin up were also blocked and had not come over for a long time. Yuan Qilin was bored alone in the Zhao family courtyard, so he came to seek shelter with Jiang Xi and Zhao Yingying.

“But your fingers were crushed by the cow.” Jiang Xi reminded Yuan Qilin indifferently.

“Well, that was a mistake. I’ll definitely make you look at me in a different light,” Yuan Qilin said with confidence.

“I’m quite impressed. You’re the first one to have your fingers broken by a cow.” Jiang Xi continued.

Yuan Qilin replied, “Damn it!”

Zhao Yingying was wrapped in a pure white cloak, only revealing a pair of big eyes. “Jiang Xi, be careful tonight. The snow seems to be heavier than usual. Someone has already sent a message saying that a group of refugees has gathered outside the town. The town gate has been closed and no one is allowed to enter or leave. I’m afraid that many people will not be able to survive the heavy snow tonight.

Jiang Si had not returned to the village yet, saying that there were people from the town magistrate’s office protecting the students and even escorting them all the way to other states and counties to participate in the examination. Jiang Xi had eaten three big bowls of rice today, which made Yang Fen frown.

Night fell, and the sound of snow grew louder. Perhaps it was because people were born with an innate sense of danger, but tonight, many people lit up their lights at the entrance. The whole village was silent. Other than the people on patrol, no one dared to go out. Every household’s food was moved to the cellar, and some people even put their children in there.

The people of Happy Village had never been so panicked before. Some people gathered in front of the Jiang family’s Gate and said, “Village chief, I heard that bandits are the fiercest. They commit all kinds of evil, such as murder and arson. Do you think our village can escape this? ”

“I heard that the villages that were marked before were more or less in trouble. A month ago, there were people coming back and forth in our village to investigate. Recently, there have been more and more footprints, but I don’t know why they haven’t done anything. Urgh…” a man said, and then retched.

As if a switch had been turned on, everyone in the room, big and small, regardless of their age, clutched their throats and felt uncomfortable.

“Oh my God, why do I still feel like there’s something moving in my stomach?” The woman who touched the stone first had a strange expression.

“Maybe the bandits drugged us. Our village will definitely suffer tonight!” As soon as he finished speaking, someone blew a whistle at the village entrance, and everyone’s expression changed.

“Bandits have entered the village!” Someone shouted, and everyone picked up their weapons and ran toward the village entrance.

“All the women and children in the village, go into the cellar. Leave ten people behind to guard the cellar. The rest of you, follow me to the entrance of the village.” With a calm expression, Jiang Xi waved her hand and rushed over with his men.

“This girl, what’s she trying to show off for? She’s just a little girl, and no one would say anything even if she hid in the basement.” Jiang Guoyou mumbled and refused to enter the cellar no matter what. He ran over with a limp, thinking that he could help Jiang Xi if something happened.

Jiang Da and Jiang Shan naturally went with Jiang Xi. It was the first time that Yuan Qilin had seen such a big battle. Unfortunately, Zhao Yingying had tied him up and thrown him into the cellar. Nothing must happen to Yuan Qilin, and no one else could know about him. Jiang Xi led a group of people and ran toward the village entrance. She even thought that the people left at the village entrance had already started fighting with the bandits and had turned it into a battlefield.

However, when they arrived, they did not see any fighting or battlefields. Instead, the scene was silent and awkward. Both sides were a little confused.

Why did the sixteen or seventeen men in the lead all seem pregnant? If one looked carefully, one would be able to see that they had all come to the village to beg for food. They were the group of people who sat on the rocks at the village entrance and told everyone about the snow disaster outside. Every time they talked about exciting things, they would even pound on the rock.
