The three of Li Hao didn't ask any more questions, and immediately got up to shake the sleeping people on the ground one by one.

I didn't dare to shout loudly, for fear that people would be nearby, and I would be attracted by their voices instead.

Qingyan first woke up the two grandma and grandchildren of Lanhua, and then asked them to call people with her.While shaking and covering their mouths, he woke up suddenly and shouted in shock.

After shaking everyone awake one by one, before we had time to pack the bedding on the ground, we buried the fire with soil first, and poured some water to see if there were still some sparks.

Fortunately, it was at night, otherwise the rising heat and smoke would be very conspicuous. Of course, they would put out the fire after cooking during the day.

After a while of operation, those people are probably not far from here. I just hope that the route of the other party is on the road down the mountain. The terrain here is higher and there is no wind, so those people can't smell the smoke.

After Qingyan saw that everyone was hiding, she asked Chouchou to take care of the donkey and not let it bark suddenly.

Then he whispered to everyone: "Chouchou and I heard the sound just now, and Chouchou has already gone to investigate, and it was still a hundred meters away at that time..."

Suddenly thinking that this is ancient times, everyone might not understand how much rice is, so he changed his way and said: "It's about forty feet away, let's hide here and don't make a sound, since the fire has gone out, the other party should not be able to find it.

Chou Chou is still staring at the tree. If the opponent comes over by mistake, it will warn you. You'd better get your weapons first. If the opponent really comes to our side, just deal with it directly. "

Li Hao whispered in surprise: "Solve it directly? Will it not kill innocent people indiscriminately? Could the other party be a passing villager as well."

Qingyan shook her head, "Chouchou saw it from the tree, they didn't salute, they had uniform weapons in their hands, and they wore the same clothes."

Hearing this, Li Hao was startled, he couldn't be the one chasing and killing them, right?
Looking at each other with Wang Kun and Wang Gan, the three of them silently stood in front of the crowd and drew out their short knives.

Qingyan glanced at them and nodded in satisfaction.

It's okay, and I know that if I'm in trouble, I have to protect innocent people. If they hide behind or run away, Qingyan will definitely look down on them.

This is Chouchou jumping back again, first he squeaked, so as not to scare others, then rushed into Qingyan's arms, squeaking softly.

Of course, this is for others to see, but it is actually a voice transmission to Qingyan.

"Those people are on the road below. The other party has a torch. They should come here to fetch water. Let everyone pay attention and be ready to do it at any time."

Qingyan nodded: "Okay, I see."

Turning his head to the crowd, he said: "Those people are already at the foot of the mountain, they have torches in their hands, and they will probably come to fetch water, everyone, try not to make any noise, and hold your weapons."

Today the moon has left one-third of the moon, and if there is no torch, there is no way to see the road.

Apart from the place where they ambush before, there is only water here, and the other party should find a pool here to fetch water.

They are all behind the boulder on the southwest side of the pool, as long as they don't make any movement, they should be safe.

After listening to Qingyan's words, the men silently walked forward, keeping Qingyan and the women behind.

The one with the pointed head Gao and the shovel stood in the front with Li Hao, the one with the machete, the kitchen knife and the ax stood in the second row, and even Liu Sanli held an iron pestle in his hand.

Chou Chou then said to Qing Yan: "I've told that donkey, it won't bark suddenly."

Apparently, Li Hao and Yang Dashan also thought of that donkey. Before Qing Yan could say anything, Yang Dashan fumbled for a hemp rope, went to the black donkey that was tied inside, and prepared to put the donkey's mouth on the ground. Tie it up lightly.

The black donkey who had been "instructed" by Chou Chou did not dodge when he saw him coming with the rope, and cooperated obediently.

Seeing that it was so obedient, Yang Dashan stretched out his hand to touch the side of its neck, and tied the rope loosely. As long as it couldn't open its mouth, it couldn't make a sound.

After all, this donkey is their only livestock, and in this era, gold is more valuable than human beings, so they are afraid that it will be strangled.

Everyone who had adapted to the darkness didn't make a sound when they saw Yang Dashan's movements.

After he tied the donkey, he came back with the hatchet in his hand and stood in front of the team.

Qingyan said in a low voice: "Master Dashan, don't worry, if you are really found out, you can untie the donkey's rein, maybe it can help us kick the bad guys, that donkey is very human."

Several people around also nodded, that is indeed human nature, not only never making trouble along the way, but also helping to find the way.

It usually eats grass obediently where they are resting, and never stops suddenly to look for grass to eat when on the road.

It turned out that the donkeys of Yang Fugui's family in their village were not like this. I heard that every time they drove to the town, they would stop and eat grass many times.

Especially when the vegetation is lush like summer, tender grass is everywhere, and you have to stop after walking for a while, and time is wasted on it.

For that matter, the donkey is also very thin and weak. It can't be compared with this big black donkey. This donkey is almost half as big as it.

At this time, there was a rustling sound, and everyone heard it, and couldn't help holding their breath.

Immediately afterwards, a swaying fire appeared on the other side of the pool. Their side was relatively hidden, and the opposite side was relatively open. They could see it by poking their heads behind the boulder.
