reborn as a brother

"Get on the horse. Run." The boss shouted luckily, and with a neat movement, he turned onto the horse without even waving the whip, and slapped the flatter's ass hard. Then, he touched his waist and moved backwards. Swing out the remaining four pocket knives.Buy time for your subordinates to escape.

At this critical moment of life and death, the true background of these horse bandits was completely revealed.

Hearing the boss's order, he ran to his horse at the fastest speed, got on the horse, and imitated the boss, slapping the ass hard.

Immediately afterwards, the horse bandit with a hidden weapon on his body quickly threw out his hidden weapon, and chased after the boss without looking back.

More than 60 horses rumbled and ran, sending out waves of yellow dust.

Not all the horse bandits escaped successfully. The horse bandits who fought before reaching the entrance of the village, because of the distance, four of them were very agile, but escaped narrowly. The remaining ten were surrounded by poisonous snakes .

Piercing the void, the two dogs, the tiger and the wolf all dodged swiftly from the menacing hidden weapon.

Obviously there was a chance to get out of the way, but the blind bear didn't make any movement.

The four small knives were close at hand, and they were about to hurt them. The villagers watching, their hearts raised in their throats, and some of them didn't care about being afraid, and reminded them aloud.

If it wasn't too late, there might be someone who wanted to run over and push them away.

But at this moment, a surprising scene appeared.

There are four blind bears in total, and on the shoulders of each blind bear sits a small monkey.

Seeing that, the four little monkeys jumped into Xiong Xiazi's arms, and Xiong Xiazi's forelimbs tightly circled the little monkeys.

The distance is getting closer and closer, relying on the impact of the knife, Xiong Xiazi will be injured in the blink of an eye.

At this critical moment, the little monkey's long tail moved very nimbly, quickly wrapping around the handle of the knife.

The strong shock wave brought by the knife is not as powerful as Xiong Xiazi's.

Now everyone understands the relationship between the blind bear and the little monkey.

This match is too strong!

As for other miscellaneous hidden weapons, there were not many of them, some were narrowly shot down by Xie Qiwang Xiaoer and others, and some were shot down by wolves and tigers.

Seeing the enemy running away, Da Huang and Xiao Huang flicked their tails and ran towards Ji Anyi and the others happily.

Over there, the horse bandits who fought against the poisonous snakes didn't last long. They were bitten, poisoned, and died within two hits.

The horse bandits ran to their deaths, and Hexi Village was temporarily safe.

This group of sudden rescuers, just like when they came, rushed into the Tiger Peak.

In the most dangerous dense forest in the deepest part of Tiger Peak, there is a huge ancient tree. On a branch of the tree lies a branch. From a distance, it looks like the white radish planted by the villagers. It is white and fat, with beards Thin and long, fluttering in the wind, there are green branches on the top of the head, and several plants are curled up on the branches. It is a rare and precious medicinal material. The root of the medicinal material is still muddy, and the soil is moist. Not long after it came out, it exudes the unique aroma of medicinal materials, which is very refreshing and charming.

It was estimated that just two quarters of an hour later, a big cat, a wild wolf, a little monkey squatted on Xiong Xiazi's shoulder, and a snake crawled in front of him, rushing towards the ancient tree at the fastest speed.

These wild animals, one can tell at a glance, should be the leader, the momentum is obviously bigger, and the eyes are full of spirituality.

After they approached, they all looked at the thousand-year-old ginseng essence lying on the branch.

In sight, the whiskers of thousand-year-old ginseng essence fluttered back and forth in the wind.

This old immortal monster deliberately coveted them.

The thousand-year-old ginseng essence's beard is a great tonic. If you can swallow one, your spirituality will be clear. If one day you realize your spiritual wisdom and become a mountain monster, how beautiful it is.

These few can only be the leaders, that is, they are a little spiritual.

Rhubarb and Xiaohuang came to find the thousand-year-old ginseng essence, and they were able to communicate across races because Rhubarb and Xiaohuang drank the water from the spiritual spring, which opened up their spirituality.

Thousand-year-old ginseng has enlightened its spiritual nature and developed spiritual wisdom. That is the old almanac of 1000 years ago. It is too blind to say that it is a ginseng that is hundreds of years old.

It has lived for nearly two thousand years, and has seen many things.

The life in the deep mountains is very boring, and I accidentally met Xiao Huang, a dog with a little spirituality, and the life is finally a little fun.

When something happened last time, Dahuang and Xiaohuang came to look for it, thinking that on weekdays, the three of them often cover it, so that it can drink some spiritual spring water and increase its wisdom.This time I just pulled a few whiskers, it's not a big deal.

So, it agreed.

Unexpectedly, he formed a relationship with that family.

Spirits and monsters are not allowed to participate in trivial matters in the world. As for why, the thousand-year-old ginseng essence doesn't know. The moment it realized its spiritual wisdom, it naturally knew about it.

Dahuang and Xiaohuang came to look for it, saying that something serious happened in the village and they wanted it to help.

This matter is different from the last time, this time it is solidly involved in trivial matters in the world.

Thinking of that little fat man, that was the child it rescued. The Millennium Ginseng Essence especially liked to play with the little fat man. The little fat man was very fun, and it should be the reason why it saved him. The two formed a bond.

There is also Ji Ge'er who often drinks spiritual spring water for him, because of his spiritual spring water, it has great wisdom and can transform into form soon.

The thousand-year-old ginseng essence is a good spirit who only knows how to repay her kindness. She knows that this matter cannot be violated, but she still makes a move.

It summons the leaders who are a little spiritually enlightened, and asks them to go out of the mountain to drive away the horse bandits. After that, it will find a rare medicinal plant in return.

At the moment when the poisonous snake killed the horse bandit, the thousand-year-old ginseng essence was punished by heaven.

A thunderbolt hit it silently, taking away one tenth of its cultivation.

The metamorphosis that was originally close at hand, has become indefinitely far away.

Forget it, the villagers of Hexi Village are fine.

The horse bandits left, and so did the rescuers.

After a while, the villagers came back to their senses, and hurriedly picked up all the food and belongings that belonged to their families.

Seeing such a chaotic scene, the money-loving villagers thought to themselves that no one's name was engraved on the silver, and no one knew how much silver they had, so they said that it was all money that was robbed from their own family.

What a great opportunity, if you don't grab some money now, you'd be a real fool.

It was obvious that there was more than one person who had this idea, and many villagers quickly realized that the kind villagers began to yell. "Hurry up and get back your own money, someone wants to take advantage of the chaos to get more money."

"Stop everything." The village chief yelled, frowning tightly, with cold eyes, looking coldly at the two villagers who were already fighting.

He didn't know how to express the disappointment in his heart.

"The catastrophe is not over yet, and you guys are starting civil strife. You have such shallow eyelids, and you still want to take advantage of the chaos. If you make money today, it's still unknown whether you will have life in the future. The horse bandits ate nails in our village, and you Just so sure that they won't come back? Everyone stand aside for me." The village head was very angry now, and it was the first time in his life that he was so angry.

It's true, if nothing happens, you can't see your true nature.

Frightened by the village chief's anger, the villagers stood aside one after another.

When the village chief saw that each of them was still holding silver in their hands, he was so angry that he wanted to laugh. "Put the silver back to its original place." The tone was calmer than before, but even more terrifying.

The villagers who were closely watched couldn't bear it any longer, and quickly threw the silver back to the original place.

A few chattered while throwing, the voice was so small that only they could hear it.

The village head had good ears, and his eyes swept over those people, remembering them in his heart.

In fact, the village head is also quite dull, he knows his body well, why did his body change so much after he fainted?Not only is the wind and cold gone, but the body seems to be a few years younger, and the energy is particularly abundant.

There are too many things at the moment, he can't think too much and has to keep it in his heart.After this catastrophe, it is a good thing for him to investigate further.

He thought that he would not be able to survive this catastrophe, but now that he is in good health, he is confident that he can lead Hexi Village through this catastrophe and slowly recover.

With his current state, he can still live for another ten years, no problem at all.

"Take away the food that belongs to the family, don't move money and belongings, and be slow." After finishing speaking, the village chief waved to Liu Amo. "You bring a few people, and the whole pot can cook enough rice." He looked at Uncle Liu next to him. "The corpses of those horse bandits, you take some people to dig a hole and bury them properly." Then, he looked at Dr. Li. "Dr. Li's injured person, please show me. After the wound is bandaged, the family will carry him back to his house and take good care of him."

After finishing these two tasks, there was a strong smell of rice in the air.

After lunch, the whole village, old and young, gathered under the old locust tree. Their money and valuables were piled up into two hills and placed under the old locust tree. The village chief sat between the two tables.

"After eating, I have strength. Now listen to me. Put four-fifths of the food at home, and take one-fifth of it and hide it in the mountains. Remember that it is one-fifth. Who dares to take more food without authorization?" Tibetan, I will not return the money that belongs to their family. You look at each other, especially there are so few families. The old bones are no longer useful, so I will take my wife and my two sons to spend their old age in peace, and I am too lazy to care about your life." The village head was expressionless and his tone was very calm.

Many people panicked after hearing this. In their hearts, the village head is their backbone. If the village head ignores them, the whole Hexi Village will be disbanded.

"Village Chief, we will keep an eye on certain people, and we will never go wrong again." Someone started to speak, and then, many voices began to speak.

After hearing these words, the village chief felt a little relieved.

Anyway, most of the people in the village are still good, and the rest are very small, alas.

After this was done, the villagers once again gathered under the old locust tree, looking at the village head eagerly.

"Now take home the money that belongs to your own family. Don't hide it. You can earn it back when the money is gone. You can't help but want to hide it, so don't be too greedy. Find a hidden place and hide it well. It is not allowed to exceed one Two silver. Come five by five, pick out the valuables that belong to your own family first, if someone picks them away, everyone will shout out, and I will not return the valuables in this person’s house.”

As soon as the village chief finished speaking, five people rushed over, eagerly reaching out to grab the valuables on the table, when the village chief said coolly. "Stand over here and let everyone take a good look at it. Remember, if you pick something wrong, I won't return it."

After saying this, their hearts trembled. There was nothing wrong with taking back their belongings, and they were honestly not thinking about it.

The next step is to get the money back.

The village chief noticed with sharp eyes that there were two people with smiles in their eyes. He hummed softly in his heart, and said without showing his face. "I will roll the roll, and whoever I count will come over to get the money."

The people he ordered were all loyal and honest people he knew well.Those selfish people who love money are all left at the end.

Most of the people's money was taken away, and the remaining few looked at the village chief eagerly, waiting for his roll call. Unexpectedly, the village chief said with a smile. "You guys probably can't tell how much money your family has, so I won't let you pick it up, so I'll just share it equally."

"No way. My family has 11 taels of silver and 760 four copper coins." Someone jumped up immediately, fearing that his silver would be taken away, he hurriedly made a noise.

In this way, the money is settled one by one.

"If the horse bandit really comes, whoever can't keep his mouth shut will take his family's food and money and get out of Hexi Village. In the face of a catastrophe, he knows that he misses himself and hurts the whole village. I don't care if you don't want such a person. Also, if you hide in the mountains and don't come out, you will implicate the villagers in the whole village, and the next time something like this happens, you will also get out of Hexi Village. I believe that after being the village head for so many years, I am in everyone's eyes. I still have a bit of status in my heart. I didn’t realize it until something happened, and the things I did before were in vain.”

After a pause, the village chief continued. "If I had known you had this kind of temperament, I shouldn't have led you to earn money. People like you should have worked hard and tiredly to plan food in the fields, and should have lived in poverty. But if there is something in the village The matter, as long as you find me, I will handle it properly for you. I don’t care how you get along with your neighbors on weekdays. As I said, if something big happens, you have to think about it. Let me calm down and count them all for me. Fuck, take all my words as fart?"

The last roar of the village chief scared the whole village.

Thinking about the village chief's fainting, everyone's hearts were raised in their throats, and they bit the bullet and spoke words of comfort.

"I'm going to put my words here today, and let me understand. If something similar happens later, the horse bandit spared your life, and you have to be punched three times by me to get out of the village." Taking a deep breath, the anger subsided After a long silence, the village chief said again. "You should believe me. When I heard the news, my wife and I stayed here. We didn't rush to join my two sons. We just thought about our Hexi Village and all of us. Our Hexi Village was robbed, and my two sons My son can be regarded as a way out, and it won't let you really fail this winter."

"Let's go." After all that should be said, the village head felt very tired, waved his hand, and walked to his yard.

After the village chief left, there was a long silence under the old locust tree. Everyone looked at some people silently, without saying anything, and left with their family in silence.

That look is like a sharp sword, which hurts the heart.

Looking at the villagers crying silently, Ji Anyi sighed, held Wang Xiaoer's hand tightly and walked home.

Wrong and right, I really can't tell.

It's normal to be afraid of death, alas...

The village chief said these words before the horse bandits came, so this situation might not happen.

It's a pity that the situation was so sudden at that time, who would have expected that the horse bandit would come as soon as he said it.

After returning home, back in his own room, Ji Anyi pulled Wang Xiaoer into the space, made him drink a glass of spiritual spring water, and said hesitantly. "Let's go out, everyone is somewhat injured."

"Success." Wang Xiaoer thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

Out of the space, Wang Xiaoer took cover, Ji Anyi went to the kitchen with a bucket, poured several glasses of water, called people over, and let them all have a drink.

I wanted to find the little ginseng to come out to provide some medicinal materials, but found that I called twice, but it didn't come out, so it seemed that it was no longer in the village.

Ji Anyi thought of the group of rescuers, saying that it was Da Huang and Xiao Huang who called them over, and he even believed that the small ginseng was responsible for it.

Although Rhubarb and Xiaohuang have spiritual connections, they are just two dogs after all. There are a few of those rescuers, and they seem to be more spiritual than Rhubarb and Xiaohuang.

Did the little ginseng get tripped up in the mountains?Try again tonight if you can shout out.

After this incident, there is a feeling of survival after disaster.When we get together, it's not like we usually talk one after another, but we all sit quietly, wandering in our own thoughts.

The little fat man fell asleep, and Wang Baoer didn't dare to let him sleep on the bed. He could feel at ease only if he was hugged in his arms.

He purposely sewed two pockets on his clothes, one on the left and the other on the right, so that Ji Aqiang quickly used bamboo to make two small bamboo tubes for water and one for food.

"I want to go back to Yuzi Village." Brother Zhang San broke the silence in the house.

When this happened, he was really worried about Ah Mo and Dad, so he had to go and have a look.

After hearing this, Xie Qi said immediately. "I'll go with you."

"Take Zhang Amo and Zhang Adie over here." After thinking for a while, Ji Anyi said something.

Hexi Village used to be Yuzi Village, and the horse bandits were driven away, and it is not known whether they went to Yuzi Village.

Brother Zhang San looked up at Ji Anyi, and squeezed his hand tightly. After a while, he said two words very seriously. "Thanks."

Apart from this, he didn't know what to say.

He will repay such a great kindness in the future and work hard.

As soon as Brother Zhang San and Xie Qi left on their front feet, Ah Yuan came over on their back feet. "The village chief asked everyone to go there."

"What's wrong?" Wang Baoer asked dully.

"I don't know. The village chief just said to let everyone go over." A Yuan answered quickly.

With a stomach full of doubts, they went to the village chief's house with Ah Yuan.

Before they could speak, the village chief spoke. "Sit down. I asked you to come here to talk to you. Regarding the group of horse bandits, I don't think it's easy."

The way is not easy...

These five words fell heavily on Ji Anyi's heart, he froze for a moment, remembering Su Jinming's confidential news.

This is the confidential information I got. In the second half of the year, there was a relatively serious drought on our side. The enemy is going to find a breakthrough from our side, causing the so-called horse bandit incident. The two parties above are fighting fiercely. The prince wants to take advantage of the fire .

The heartbeat suddenly accelerated a lot, and a bold guess came to mind.

Are these horse bandits sent by a certain prince?Or was it sent by the enemy country?

"Those horse bandits, let's just talk about that leader. They are very skilled and have deep internal skills. Besides, did you notice when they escaped? The reaction was very quick. It is impossible for them to be real horse bandits. On the contrary, it seems to be the reaction of the regular army. Moreover, the leader has repeatedly emphasized that only hurting people and not killing them, I thought it was their rule, but now it looks more like another conspiracy. What kind of purpose do they have?" Village It seems to be muttering to himself, and it seems to be asking them.

Ji Anyi looked at Wang Xiaoer, with a questioning expression evident in his eyes.Do you want to tell the village chief this confidential news?

At this time, the catastrophe has already happened, and if the news is announced now, it should not bring any disaster to Su Jinming.

"Village Chief, we have a piece of confidential information." Wang Xiaoer's voice was lowered a lot. "It is said that a certain prince joined forces with the enemy country in order to fight for the throne. He knew that there was a relatively serious drought on our side this year, so he turned his attention to our side and planned to find a breakthrough from here. What this breakthrough is, I don't know at the moment."

The village chief was shocked when he heard this. "Prince An actually teamed up with the enemy country!" After a while, he came to his senses and said again. "These horse bandits are the work of Lord An. What does he want to do? He wants to find a breakthrough here."

Thinking and thinking over and over again, but I have no clue at all.

"We can't guess, we don't know what he wants to do." Let the regular army pretend to be horse bandits and rob the farmhouse, what does Prince An want to do?This is something that arouses people's anger. It doesn't make sense that he wants the throne, but he does something that arouses people's anger.

Ji Anyi expressed his thoughts. "Prince An wants the throne, but does something that arouses public indignation. This is completely contrary to his purpose." After a pause, he said something tentatively. "Could it be that Prince An didn't do it? The news...could it be the smoke that was released?"

He really couldn't figure out the conspiracy in the court, and couldn't figure out their thoughts at all.

"I don't know. Anyway, one thing is certain. These horse bandits are not real horse bandits. They must have a purpose. They were scared away this time. I guess they will come back soon. We have to think It's a good countermeasure." With that said, the village head glanced at the people in the room. "Did those wild things be brought out by Big Huang and Little Yellow?"

"I don't know about this either. However, I don't think it's something that Da Huang and Xiao Huang can do." Ji Anyi replied.

The village head listened and nodded. "I also think it's impossible. How did those wild things come out?"

"Could it be that True Monarch Chunyang has manifested?" Wang Xiaoer asked enthusiastically.

Chunyang Zhenjun is the god enshrined in Hexi Village.

Wang Baoer was dull at first, but his eyes lit up when he heard what his younger brother said. "Village chief, I think it should be. Otherwise, those fierce creatures, who dares to command them to move them, look at the big one, and they didn't hurt anyone, the horse bandits drove them away, and they left immediately gone."

"Zhenjun Chunyang is still very spiritual." Ji Aqiang also spoke. "The villages around us often come to worship. During the drought, we managed to call Chunyang Zhenjun down to the mortal world. He didn't return to the sky. When the horse bandits came over, he appeared again."

A few people were talking, and they could vaguely hear the sound of crackling firecrackers. After listening carefully, the direction was in the temple.

It seems that they are not the only ones who have this idea.
