Chapter 64
After the village head made a decision, the men quickly packed up the pots and pans, lit up long torches, and drove the carriage to prepare to go up the mountain.
Seeing this, the other dozen groups of people didn't care about being on guard, and ran over to inquire about the situation. "Big brother, why are you going up the mountain at this time? There are fierce tigers on the mountain!"
"Yes, the night is more dangerous than the day, so let's go tomorrow morning."
"Isn't it? A fierce tiger came out in a black light, and didn't know where to strike even if it had a knife."
Unmoved, the village chief glanced at everyone and said, "Fellow folks, our relatives have already gone up the mountain this morning. We went up the mountain all night to chase them. It is indeed dangerous at night. You should wait for the people behind to go up the mountain together. "
After hearing this, everyone could only nod their heads.
After all, they had knives in their hands, and they might be able to kill a few of them. If they didn't kill them, they would surely feed the tigers, so that they would be much safer going up the mountain tomorrow.
The villagers of Taohua Village didn't care what they thought, they lit torches and drove the carriage, speeding up the mountain.
This avenue is spacious, after all, it is the only way to the capital, enough to accommodate three or four carriages driving side by side.
For the sake of safety, the village head arranged two carriages to run side by side, and the men with weapons accompanied them on both sides, and the team was compact.
Xiao Ningxue, Xiao Shan and Wu Chongwen became the most closely guarded ones, surrounded by uncles and brothers.
Xiao Ningxue had a gun in her hand, so she wanted to protect the villagers, but when she thought about it carefully, if she really killed a dozen tigers with a rifle, wouldn't her 'prestige' be spread far and wide?
But if she didn't make a move, a dozen fierce tigers would hurt many people, which was not what she wanted to see.
Seeing Xiao Ningxue pursing her lips and frowning for a while, and thinking hard for a while, Wu Chongwen knew what she was worrying about.
Stretching out his hand to rub the top of her head, he leaned close to her ear and whispered, "What can Xiaoxue do to keep everyone safe?"
"Yes, there is, but it's inconvenient to use it, Xiao Ningxue shut her mouth tightly in annoyance.
Things like 'guns' are really against the sky, how dare you use them blatantly?
But now that the situation is urgent, she can't just watch everyone face danger! It's really confusing!
Seeing Xiao Ningxue in such a difficult situation, Wu Chongwen couldn't help but feel distressed, so he turned around and said in a tone that did not arouse her alertness as much as possible: "When Xiaoxue saved me, she used a particularly powerful hidden weapon, and Xiaoxue planned to use it again. it?"
"Hmm." Xiao Ningxue nodded her head in a hurry.
Isn’t it reasonable to classify guns as hidden weapons? But if such a powerful hidden weapon appears in this world, it’s okay to spread it?
Wu Chongwen seemed to see through her thoughts again, smiled and rubbed the center of her brows again.
"My ancestor once got a peacock plume that can shoot hundreds of hidden weapons at once. If I carry it on my body, it will be no problem to deal with a mere dozen of beasts."
Xiao Ningxue hurriedly stared at Wu Chongwen with eyes widened in surprise.
"Then Ah Wen, if my hidden weapon is used to surprise people, can it be said that it is the peacock feather inherited from your family?"
"No problem." Wu Chongwen nodded, and then looked at Xiao Ningxue who let out a "hidden weapon" for an excuse, and couldn't help laughing.
This girl~~is mysterious, but kind and cute!
Just after finishing the question, someone in front suddenly exclaimed.
"Look, there are torches!"
Xiao Ningxue and Wu Chongwen also hurriedly raised their heads to look forward when they heard this cry, and they saw a team of torches rushing towards them.
When everyone saw this, they felt a little bit in their hearts. Could it be that there is danger ahead and someone has escaped down the mountain? "Who is in front? Why are you running down the mountain?" the village chief shouted loudly.
The person over there replied, "There are fierce tigers on the mountain hurting people. It's too dangerous. You should turn around quickly." As they spoke, the two groups of people met.
There were two to three hundred people who came down from the mountain, young and old looked terrified, but no one was injured.The village chief looked at them strangely, "What's going on? Was someone attacked by a tiger?"
"We don't know either." The man shook his head, stepped aside, and pointed to the people behind, "Their team encountered a tiger, thirty or forty, and we were also frightened, so we retreated down the mountain .”
Everyone hurriedly looked into the crowd, and saw several familiar faces. They were the old lady Xiao's family who were going to the capital to find relatives.
The village head's expression changed drastically, and he hurried over to ask Mrs. Xiao.
"Old lady Xiao, so it was you? Tell me quickly, are the villagers from Taohua Village who were attacked?"
Granny Xiao dragged her fat body and was almost paralyzed from exhaustion. She sat on the ground right now, panting and wiping her sweat, and glanced slyly at everyone's carriage.
"How can we remember this when we are tired and hungry? But if you will give us two wagons and a few sacks of food, maybe we can remember."
When they left the village, the order to retreat to the north hadn't come down yet, and they didn't bring anything with them. They packed lightly, but it was easy for them to hire a carriage and arrive at 'Qiganling'.
However, when they got here, they were blocked by tigers on the mountain. They waited here until this morning, and then they waited for the group of Taohua Village who set off on the same day, and then went up the mountain with them.
I never thought that in the evening, a fierce tiger would suddenly come out of the forest and bite anyone it saw.
Fortunately, they pushed the two disabled people, Xiao Hong and Xiao Yu, and they fell at the end of the team. Before they entered the hunting area of the beasts, they were so frightened that they rolled and crawled back.
But if you want to get words out of her mouth, how can you do it without spending some money?
Mrs. Xiao thought pretty well, but what kind of cruel things have you not seen along the way?
There are people who kill people for a pot of water, and want them to protect the carriage and rice grain that they have risked their lives all the way? Dreaming.
Immediately, several men drew their knives over, Old Madam Xiao, Xiao Hong and Xiao Hai put one on each neck.
"When has it been so long and you haven't forgotten to blackmail others? Let me tell you, it wasn't all luck that we got here all the way. The knife in our hand was also fed with blood."
The old lady Xiao's mother and son turned pale with fright, and the old lady Xiao hurriedly said: "Who else could it be if it wasn't them? They are the only ones who got the news early and were the first to arrive here."
After speaking, he rolled his eyes, and added a special sentence, "Dozens of fierce tigers broke into the crowd, and I don't know how many people were killed or injured."
After hearing this, everyone's eyes turned red, and the village chief immediately told him to unload all the horses, and dispatched more than 300 people to the mountain to rescue, while the remaining 300 people stayed on the spot to protect the food and wait for news.
"Village Chief, I will go with Ah Wen." Xiao Ningxue and Wu Chongwen also got on the horse.
Just as the village chief and Xiao Shan were about to stop them, they rode their horses and followed behind the crowd, and disappeared in a flash.
