I rewrote family history

Chapter 101 He's Dead

It was quiet outside the woodshed.

The sound of chaotic footsteps gradually approached, and the hearts of several people in the firewood room raised their throats.Qian Zhengxin approached the window, punctured the paper with saliva on his finger, and peeked out, "It's not Mangui, the shape of the foot is not the same, it's someone else, rough cloth shoes."

He can't see the whole picture with his eyesight, if he looks out a little bit, he may be able to see the whole picture, but this way will easily expose his figure.So he could only glimpse the lower half of his body below his knees, nothing more.

Mangui is the name of a servant of the Sun family.

The people hiding behind the woodpile were startled, and immediately gripped the "weapons" they were holding in the firewood room.A wooden stick, two stools, a steel fork, and a hatchet.

Xu Er went into the firewood room earlier and took the steel fork.Seeing this situation, he gestured to the fox fairy squatting in the corner.One person and one fox cooperated tacitly, the gray-white fox walked out of the woodshed, came back, and shook his head at him.

"I'll block him with a steel fork later, and you guys will follow."

With reassurance, he immediately made a bold decision.

The steel fork is undoubtedly a long weapon, just like the wolf whisk in the hands of Qi's army.He was the first to use the steel fork to withstand the enemy, and the short weapons in the hands of the others could be effective.

Zhao Jiashu and the others looked at Xu Er stupefied gratefully.

Several people moved their positions cautiously, waiting for the enemy to come.

After a while, the door of the firewood room opened.Everything is going according to plan.Xu Er blocked the intruder with a steel fork, while Zhao Jiashu slammed the intruder's thigh with a wooden stick, and the rest did the same.Only Sun Xingmin, who was holding a hatchet, did not step forward to stab people, but held the hatchet tightly and waited.

After the set of movements was finished, a red-faced old man with a limped leg and a wine-grooved nose lay on the ground and cried out in pain, begging for mercy: "Young masters, I am the gatekeeper of the theater, Lao Li, Master Zhao, You have seen me before, I came here to avoid disaster, a group of riot soldiers rushed in in the front yard, and many people died on the street. My leg is probably about to be broken..."

Although he was talking nonsense, he also talked about some external situations in general.

door?

Several people looked at it for a while, nodded, and then took a few steps back.

"Stop yelling. If you yell for a while, you're lame. You've brought in rioters. You're too annoying. It's not impossible to kill you with a single shot. I reckon that the white wolf won't be able to make trouble in Xinye yet. The chaos outside , at most, it took a while before he was flattened by the county magistrate."

"Don't think about it..."

Zhao Jiashu squinted at Lao Li a few times, half threatening.

Old Li nodded repeatedly, covered his mouth, and didn't dare to say anything more.

After a while, a group of rebellious soldiers poured into the back house of the theater. They first ran to the well-decorated main room and wing room, and robbed them all. The cry of the wealthy man....

The woodshed in the kitchen is a great place.It's not that the soldiers didn't expect someone to hide in the firewood house, but that the firewood house is easy to be ignored compared to the more exquisite houses.Only when the chaotic soldiers have nothing to grab, will they look at the most remote corners.This is also the idea of ​​Zhao Jiashu and others betting that the turmoil can be quickly quelled and that the rioters will not stay in the theater for too long.

A quarter of an hour later, the gunfire started again.

"It should have started to suppress the rebellion."

Behind the pile of firewood, Sun Yuanmin listened carefully to the gunshots for a while, and said firmly: "I saw the feet of the soldiers just now. They were straw sandals and hemp rope shoes. At first glance, they were soldiers of the White Wolf. The gunshots outside the theater were more Intensive, it is the machine gun of the patrol battalion, a few years ago, when I was still a soldier in the green battalion, I bought two Lianzhu Green cannons."

(Gatling was transliterated as Green at the time, and the Green Gun was the Gatling machine gun.)
Hearing this sentence, Xu Er was relieved.

Even with the help of the fox fairy, he should be able to survive this catastrophe, but he is not willing to let the fox fairy go outside to take risks.

After an unknown period of time, the gunfire finally stopped.

Qian Zhengxin saw a group of officers and soldiers in white hats coming in through the hole in the paper. He hurriedly said: "The officers and soldiers have come in, and the bandits probably ran away. We should go out."

The bandits pass like a comb, and the soldiers pass like a grate.

However, the officers and soldiers in front of them were not enough to scare a few students.They are all local soldiers, everyone has a name and surname, so it should not be robbed to their heads.

"Who are you?" The captain who led the officers and soldiers saw a few long-clothed youths who came to the courtyard, looked carefully at them, and frowned, "Are you students? How did you get involved here? Hurry up, hurry up. By the way, go to the north, don't go to the south, the gangsters have gone to the south."

There are many dead bodies who have been shot in disorder in the courtyard, including gentry, civilians, and some white wolf soldiers who are obviously dressed in green forest. They wear white cloth sleeves on their left arms and wear thick clothes. These clothes are very messy. There are silk, linen, and crepe cloths, and they are all worn together in a mess, wrapped like rice dumplings, and they all have a long knife hanging by their side.

"Go, go, go..."

Zhao Jiashu urged.

Several people hurriedly thanked the officers and soldiers in charge, and then walked on tiptoe as much as possible, avoiding the dead bodies on the ground, and looking for empty loam that was not soaked in blood.The road of about two hundred steps made them walk for a long time.

"It's... Mangui, he's dead."

Xu Er stunned suddenly saw a dead body lying on the ground. He was startled, and wanted to tell the two brothers of the Sun family who were traveling with him, but he saw the two brothers walking away as if no one was there, so he didn't know if he hadn't seen it. Still pretending not to see it.He closed his mouth wisely and avoided another dead body.

He guessed what the two brothers were thinking.

If they found out that Mangui was dead, it would be too indifferent for them to leave like this.But it is obviously impossible for them to stop for Mangui, they are just a servant, and there are rioting soldiers raging outside.Everyone is afraid!
When we got to North Street, we bypassed the theater.

"Finally escaped. Fortunately, fortunately..."

Zhao Jiashu leaned against the courtyard wall of an alleyway. He panted heavily and said, "Fortunately, with Zheng Xin, we threw away our belongings in time so that we wouldn't be robbed. I just saw that the management team didn't treat us well. Bad intentions... That's right, one of our possessions is worth several silver dollars, worth their salary for several months, how can they not be tempted..."

He saw the malice of the officers and men in charge.

"I don't know how Mangui is doing now? Is it a disaster or a blessing?"

"I shouldn't have let Mangui go out to find information just now..."

Sun Yuanmin looked worried.

"Don't say that, it's not your fault. Hey, I don't know how Mangui is doing. I'll have a look when I get home. I'll ask grandma to burn a stick of incense for him in front of the gods and Buddhas, and bless him. That's all I can do, I hope he's fine."

Sun Xingyuan sighed.

"Don't worry, Mangui is fine..."

Sensing the eyes of the Sun brothers, Xu Er immediately replied.
