After rebirth, I became a national teacher
Chapter 257
At the critical moment, ordinary people couldn't even enter the city to take refuge.
On the one hand, after the Japanese pirates' warning, the southern capital city would be under martial law, and without a guarantor from a wealthy family in the city, it would be impossible to enter the city.
On the other hand, they were also afraid that they would be unlucky enough to encounter Japanese pirates on the way into the city and have all their valuables robbed.
Seeing the big red warning words on the wall, Wu Sanjin, like the others, was filled with fear and anxiety, but he was powerless and could only subconsciously pray to God:
"May all the gods and Buddhas bless us, and please don't let the Japanese pirates come to our Yangfeng Town again!"
"Yes, Zhenjiang Prefecture is well connected. Let them go somewhere else and don't set your sights on Nandu City!"
"May the Buddha and Bodhisattva bless you! May the Three Pure Ones bless you!"
At this moment, a burst of arrogant laughter broke out from the crowd.
Everyone was so shocked that they took a few steps back, immediately exposing the burly men in the middle.
Several people simultaneously pulled out the bags on their backs, and as they pulled the bag wrappings, blood-stained swords quickly came out of their sheaths. Several people laughed grimly and shouted:
"My fellow villagers! It is better to rely on yourself than on God! As long as you hand over your valuables and women, our Xiang Family Gang will not kill people indiscriminately!"
"You... who are you? How dare you hold a knife in broad daylight!"
The brave one asked stutteringly.
According to the laws of the country, ordinary people are not allowed to possess lethal weapons such as swords, spears, etc.
"Who are you? You were so worried just now, why are you pretending to be confused now?"
It's like a cat playing with a mouse, but it's also a deliberate threat.
The big man in the lead tore off his head, revealing the iconic Japanese samurai head.
Wu Sanjin was suddenly shocked and his eyes were filled with fear.
It's the Japanese pirates!
The crowd also erupted in screams of terror:
"Ah! It's the Japanese pirates! Go and report to Constable Lin!"
At this moment, the sound of galloping horses and screams sounded behind him.
Wu Sanjin looked in the direction where the sound came from, and saw a group of Japanese pirates holding big swords, riding fast horses and rushing towards them. The people on the road were terrified and avoided them.
The tall warrior with a sturdy figure and dark skin in the lead smiled maliciously:
"I just heard someone wants to report to the police? The police are here, report it!"
As soon as those words were spoken, someone threw two bloody bodies in front of the crowd.
Only then did Wu Sanjin realize that the horses of the two Japanese pirates who were running at the end were still dragging two people, who were covered in blood and had already died.
Judging from his clothes, he is the town's constable.
No one knew when this group of Japanese pirates sneaked into the town, it was as if they had dropped from the sky.
As soon as the Japanese pirate warning was issued, the pirates arrived in the town.
The government is always so useless when facing the Japanese pirates.
"what--"
"The Japanese pirates are coming——"
"Run away!"
Everyone screamed and fled in all directions, but they were soon driven back by the Japanese pirates on horseback like shepherd dogs driving a flock of sheep!
Several people were hacked and trampled to death, and the crowd was filled with screams and cries of fear.
Wu Sanjin tried hard to hide himself in the crowd to avoid being hacked to death. The Japanese pirates asked them to squat in an open space in the center of the town, and he obediently did so.
Soon, more people were driven to the open space in the center of the town by Japanese pirates wielding broadswords.
Wu Sanjin saw his two children and wife in the crowd. He was worried that they might be hurt, but he did not dare to act rashly.
"Quiet! Now stand together as a family!"
Wu Sanjin quickly ran to his wife and children.
"Dad! Dad! How scary!"
When the little daughter saw him, she hugged him and burst into tears. His son and wife were so frightened that they turned pale and trembled slightly involuntarily.
Wu Sanjin quickly covered his daughter's mouth:
"Don't cry! They hate it most when children cry, they will kill them!"
The whole family huddled together like quails.
The dark-skinned strong Japanese pirate stood at the front and announced:
"Alright, now each family will send one person back to retrieve all their property! I, Xiang Lao Er, am the most righteous person. As long as you hand over all your property, I promise not to kill anyone in your family!"
Then, he threatened viciously:
"But let me make it clear beforehand, if anyone dares to hide anything, Grandpa will make him regret being a human being!"
Looking at the more than one hundred ferocious Japanese pirates surrounding them and the bloodstained swords in their hands, Wu Sanjin was terrified.
Even though it was not easy to save that money, he did not dare to have any ulterior motives and quickly went home to take all the money and give it to the Japanese pirates.
He was afraid that something might happen to his wife and children, so he ran very fast and was the first one to arrive.
The Japanese pirate weighed the money bag in his hand and smiled with satisfaction:
"You are very good, take your family and stay there!"
Wu Sanjin was pardoned.
There were many people like Wu Sanjin. They looked at the copper coins and silver coins that were piling up quickly and laughed heartily:
"Hahahaha! Who says that fields plowed by others are bad? Look, as long as you grasp the right opportunity, not only can you squeeze out a lot of oil, but you can also squeeze it out very smoothly!"
This Yangfeng Town was looted by another group of people in the past, but more than ten years later, it has recovered.
As the first person to rob Yangfeng Town more than ten years later, he not only robbed a lot of money this time, but also did it with great ease.
Nandu is prosperous, and even the people in the surrounding villages and towns are richer than those in other places, and the women are more beautiful and young.
It's worth taking the risk.
Remembering that Captain Li's letter mentioned that there was another big fat sheep on the back mountain of Yangfeng Town, Xiang Lao Er's eyes fell on the first short man in the crowd who came to pay the money.
"come here!"
Wu Sanjin didn't dare to resist. He quickly walked away from his wife and children, lowered his head and knelt in front of Xiang Laoer.
"I heard there is a Cihang Temple on the mountain behind you. Do you know where it is?"
Cihang Temple... Although it is a newly opened Taoist temple, people in the town say it is very effective. Many dignitaries go there to burn incense. On June 15th, Wu Sanjin even took his whole family to burn incense and pray for peace.
"Know...know."
He was afraid of angering the bandits, so he didn't dare to hide anything.
"Okay, then you lead the way!"
Xiang Lao Er immediately called out to his sixty men and said to the seventy or so people who stayed behind:
"Brothers, keep an eye on these people. Let's go catch another fat sheep and come back to enjoy the fun together in the evening!"
