different devil life

Su Xiaoqiang's eyes widened, and his arms slowly dropped: "You...can say..."
Just like that, Su Xiaoqiang left.
Wang Zhong was quite speechless, because Su Xiaoqiang looked a little scared away by himself before he died.
But Su Xiaoqiang is fine if he is dead, since he has been suffering here, in fact, he himself is in great pain.
Secondly, in order to treat Su Xiaoqiang's illness, Su Xiaolan actually spent a lot of money on him.
So Su Xiaoqiang's death, whether it was for himself or his family, might be a relief.
When Zhou Cui came back, she saw the stiff corpse on the bed and collapsed on the ground: "My dier, my dier......"
"Brother, brother..."
The mother and daughter hug each other and cry.
Wang Zhong sighed, it was really tragic that there were only two people left in the family.
Although a person is dead, the life of the living still has to be lived. After burying Su Xiaoqiang, this winter ushered in the snow that has not been seen in many years.
The heavy snow collapsed many people's houses, and Wang Zhong felt anxious when he saw it.
"Xiao Lan, the heavy snow fell too much this time. If this continues, your house may also collapse. The snow on the roof must be swept away."
With Wang Zhong's reminder, Su Xiaolan and her mother began to sweep the snow the next day.
The two of them found a long bamboo pole and swept away the snow from the roof, and then used a bamboo broom to sweep away all the snow around the house.
The small house finally survived the heavy snow.
It's a pity that other people in the village were not so lucky. Many people were smashed to death on the spot, and those who survived stayed where they were, crying and howling.
In the spring of the second year, everything recovers.
Logically speaking, this is the season when everyone starts to sow. With the heavy snowfall last year, there must be a good harvest this year.
Unfortunately, things are impermanent.
Because of the heavy snow this time, the disaster was more serious than the drought in previous years, and many people were displaced.
In order to eat and earn money, bandits appeared in many places. These people burned, killed, looted and committed all kinds of crimes.
Because the towns are protected by the defenders, they can't do anything, but some villages can't do it. Many villages have been robbed, and I heard that many women were taken away by the bandits. The fate is self-evident.
………………
"It's not good, it's not good...the bandits are calling!"
On this day, Zhou Cui and Su Xiaolan were farming, and when they saw the dust flying from the entrance of the village, Zhou Cui immediately knew that the bandits were coming.
These days, the noise of the bandits has long been known to everyone, they dared not neglect and ran away in a hurry.
"Xiao Lan, run quickly and go into the woods."
Zhou Cui fled in a hurry.
Su Xiaolan nodded, she didn't worry about anything, because these days she had already hidden the silver in the spring.
"Grab money, grab women, grab food, who dares to block the way, kill..."
Several strong men rode in with machetes in hand.
At this time, Zhou Cui and Su Xiaolan had already hid in the woods, watching a group of bandits rummaging through their house.
Su Xiaolan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she was reminded by the little mouse before that she hid all the money.
Wang Zhong was staying in the room at the moment, and what surprised him was that he actually knew a masked strong man who came over this trip!
It's the little rascal in the village, Fat Cow!
"This guy actually became a bandit!" Wang Zhong frowned.
"Hey, didn't you say there is a beautiful woman here? Where is she?"
The fat cow snorted: "It must be hiding, but it doesn't matter, you see there are still pots and pans here, they must be hiding not far away, we will come over in the middle of the night."
"Hahaha, fat cow, I will do as you say."
The two rode away.
As the sky gradually darkened, Su Xiaolan and Zhou Cui walked over.
"Mom, you rest for a while, I'll cook."
Su Xiaolan helped Zhou Cui into the room, and after she came out, Wang Zhong crawled onto her shoulders.
"Little mouse, where have you been today? I haven't seen you all day." After seeing Wang Zhong, Su Xiaolan's mood improved a lot.
Wang Zhong said: "Hurry up and take your things and run."
Afterwards, Wang Zhong told about Fat Niu's plan to deal with her.
"what!"
Hearing what Wang Zhong said, Su Xiaolan was extremely angry. This fat cow actually led bandits to kill fellow villagers. It's really not a thing!
Although Su Xiaolan said so, she knew that it was really not suitable to stay here for a long time.
She immediately started packing her things.
"Xiao Lan, what are you doing to pack up?" Zhou Cui asked as she walked out the door.
"Mother, it's not good. The fat cow is a bandit. I'm afraid he will come to trouble us in the middle of the night."
"Ah!" Zhou Cui said strangely, "How do you know?"
"My eyes are sharp, and today I recognized a bandit who looks a lot like a fat cow."
"But…………"
"Mom, listen to me."
Su Xiaolan didn't explain much, after packing some bags to salute, she and Zhou Cui shared a bag and went out.
They hid in the woods, and sure enough, in the middle of the night, they saw two people walking towards them holding two torches.
"It really came."
Su Xiaolan frowned, and the next moment, both she and Zhou Cui were stunned.
Fat Niu might have been angry, so he directly set a fire on Su Xiaolan's roof, and the whole small room burned.
"House, our house!!"
Zhou Cui cried anxiously, and Su Xiaolan also cried, this is the house they lived on, and it was burned down just like that.
Su Xiaolan could only hold Zhou Cui firmly, not to let her be impulsive.
Wang Zhong sighed in his heart, he finally understood why the original owner's mouse was so resentful, it was really that the little owner's life was not miserable, but inhumane.
If he hadn't worked so hard to steal some money, Su Xiaolan's family would have suffered even more.
"The house is gone, what will we do in the future?" Zhou Cui leaned on Su Xiaolan, weeping in pain.
"Mom, let's go to the county seat, it's safe there."
"But silver, our family doesn't have much silver."
"I've saved a little, and I'll figure out a way when the time comes."
Su Xiaolan didn't say it clearly, but she still had some silver in her possession.
Chapter 527 The solution to banditry (please subscribe)
Before dawn the next day, Su Xiaolan and Zhou Cui walked towards the county seat. Along the way, they encountered many refugees, all of whom were ordinary people who had been robbed these days.
"This is too miserable!"
Wang Zhong lay on Su Xiaolan's neckline and couldn't help muttering.
"Yes." Su Xiaolan also sighed helplessly.
"Xiaolan, give me a stutter."
At this time, a woman came over.
This woman is also from the same village, Su Xiaolan sighed, and gave her a big cake from herself.
"Thank you, Xiaolan, you are really a good person."
"The bandits are coming, the bandits are coming..."
At this moment, screams came from a distance, and dozens of bandits on fast horses came quickly.
All of a sudden, the refugees panicked and fled in all directions.
Su Xiaolan and the others were lucky, and fled to the forest. After the bandits left, they escaped and rushed to the county town with some refugees.
Today's county town is also in panic, because I heard that the bandits outside are getting bigger and bigger. From the beginning, the bandits have turned into an army.
Now there are rumors outside that this group of bandits is preparing to attack here.
Fortunately, the court sent people over.
After five days of bandit suppression operations, the bandits entrenched in the nearby mountains were either dead or injured, and basically they didn't dare to show their heads.
But the headache for the imperial court, these bandits have learned to be smart, and now they basically shoot a gun to change places. When the soldiers of the imperial court pass by, these bandits have long since disappeared.
The operation to suppress the bandits has been dragging on, and the refugees in the county can't leave. This makes the people above have a headache and don't know what to do.
So the City Lord's Mansion issued a notice, looking for people of insight, as long as there is a way to solve the problem of bandits this time, unfortunately, it has been half a month, and no one has a solution.
These days, Wang Zhong, Su Xiaolan, and Zhou Cui have been crowded in an inn. The conditions of this inn are average, but the price is cheap.
Whenever the night was quiet, Wang Zhong would hide under the bed and practice silently.
"Without the spiritual water here, the improvement of strength is very slow."
Wang Zhong could feel that he was about to be promoted, and with a thought, he shouted in a low voice: "Transfiguration..."
In a blink of an eye, a man in his early twenties appeared under the bed.
Wang Zhong touched his face and smiled directly. Finally, he transformed himself.
After today, he can act like a human.
However, Wang Zhong found that he couldn't last long in this state. Around midnight, he returned to his original shape due to the disappearance of spiritual power in his body.
"It seems that it is not commonly used yet."
Wang Zhong was helpless, and really wanted to continue his cultivation by the side of that spring.
As long as you advance again, everything will be simple.
It's a pity that he is here now.
"These damn bandits!"
Wang Zhong thought for a while, and had an idea, this is the only way to do it!
........................
The next day, when Zhou Cui went out to beg for food, Wang Zhong transformed into a human form in front of Su Xiaolan.
"Little mouse, you are really a little mouse!" Su Xiaolan covered her mouth with a look of shock!
Suddenly, she smiled.
"You've become a human, great, great..." Su Xiaolan really wanted to rush over to hug her, but she seemed a little worried, so she didn't come.
Wang Zhong said lightly: "I haven't been like this for a long time."
As he spoke, he picked up the bronze mirror on the side and looked at himself in the mirror.
The self in the mirror is very immature, and to his surprise, this appearance is his real appearance.
"It seems that this is a random illusion."
Wang Zhong muttered in his heart, and said to Su Xiaolan: "Next, let me tell you about the next step plan."
Afterwards, under Wang Zhong's instruction, Su Xiaolan and the two went to the City Lord's Mansion.
"Grassman Su Xiaolan, I want to meet the city lord."
