Chapter 21 This is not a bandit

The sister's face was gray. She clenched the wooden stick in her hand and rushed forward two steps. She looked at Li Zongliang's long gun raised at her. She hurriedly stopped and shouted in a trembling voice, "Let my brother go! I'll just let you go there!"

Li Xiaoyao was knocked down with a smile covered by her words. Li Zonggui held a knife and reached out to take the reins from Li Xiaoyao's hand. While smiling, he motioned Xiaoyao to go and watch the bustle.

Li Xiaoyao stood behind Wei Shuisheng, whose guns were shaking with laughter. He looked at the excitement. Li Erhuai grinned and turned to look at Li Zongliang and suggested, "Brup his leg. Don't let him harm others again!"

"Hmm." Li Zongliang agreed with a smile. His sister's eyes were round, and the wooden stick slid down from her hand and screamed and rushed to the round-faced bandit: "Please let him go and hit me!" Break my leg!"

Wei Shuisheng jumped over and opened his sister with a long gun rod. The poor mountain bandits standing behind finally reacted, quickly threw away the wooden stick in their hands, knelt on the ground in a mess, and shouted for mercy in a mess:

"Six heroes have spared Tiemu, and we have no way."

"You can't break your leg. If you break your leg, you won't survive!"

"If it weren't for starving to death, who would want to be this bandit!"

"Let us go. We dare not rob any more, and we dare not starve to death!"

The round-faced iron wood raised his head desperately and shouted, "Sister! Don't beg him, you will die! If I hadn't had enough to eat, I wouldn't have killed him! Sister, we don't ask for help!"

My sister knelt on the ground, kept kowtoing to Li Zongliang, and crying sadly and desperately: "If it weren't for the fact that I couldn't live••••••Please, our Zhang family, this is the only root, please, please, break my leg••••••••"

Li Xiaoyao's tears were about to fall. She hurried back a few steps, raised his hand to cover his eyes, leaned against Li Zonggui and muttered, "Look at her crying!" Let her cry, as if we were the bandits who killed and robbed the goods. Li Zonggui wanted to laugh, but he couldn't laugh sadly. The flesh on his face pulled, sighed heavily, and couldn't say a word.

Li Erhuai raised a stick and turned his head to look at Li Zongliang in embarrassment, waiting for him to speak. Li Zongliang looked at Wei Shuisheng. Wei Shuisheng lowered his shoulders and looked at Li Zongliang helplessly. The two sighed almost at the same time. Wei Shuisheng turned his head to look at his sister with a snotty face and tears, frowned and said, "Okay, don't cry. Well, hasn't this been interrupted yet? Tell me, where are you from and why did you come here to make such a lifeless living?

My sister wiped her nose and tears with her sleeves and hurriedly answered, "We are from Xiao Zhangzhai, and there are also several Sun Ji. We have been fighting in front of us. Nanyue has also fought in, Liang Guo has also come in, and Beiping has also passed through our village. After that, the government said that we would strengthen the wall and clear the field, set fire to our village, and With Sunji, more than half of the people in our village did not escape, and many people died along the way. So did Sunji, and so did other villages. Not many people escaped. We escaped all the way. Zheng Cheng did not allow us to enter and had no place to go. We originally wanted to Taiping Mansion to find a way to live, but when we walked here, we really walked. I don't want to move. I want to survive this winter first and then go to Taiping Mansion.

The more Wei Shuisheng listened, the more he frowned. He turned his head and looked at Li Zongliang, who also frowned, and then asked, "Where is your village?" How far is it from Zhengcheng?

"In the north of Zhengcheng, more than 30 miles away from Zhengcheng, two days to South Vietnam, two days to Liangguo, that is, to Beiping far away, you have to walk for three or four days." My sister replied in detail.

"Are you all from the same village?"

"No, there are several villages, three or four, four or five villages. There are many of our little Zhangzhai and Sun Ji. My brother is a righteous man and knows many people. They are all descendants who have known at home in previous years. There are also three of those three who came from South Vietnam to visit relatives and can't go back." My sister turned around and pointed to the dejected and crooked bandits behind her and replied disorderly.

Li Zongliang's face became more and more gloomy. Looking at the three Nanyue people, he raised his chin to Wei Shuisheng. Wei Shuisheng nodded slightly, took two steps forward, passed his sister, swept everyone and asked, "Who is Nanyue to visit relatives?"

The three people mentioned by my sister just now came out of the crowd timidly. One was a little older, about 30 years old, and the other two were extremely young, only 16 or 17 years old. Wei Shuisheng looked at the three people and asked calmly, "You are from South Vietnam. Why don't you go back?"

"Hmm." The elder suddenly raised his hand to cover his face and cried sadly: "The big tiger was shot to death by them, and he was shot to death with an arrow!"

I heard that our south and Yue were also cleared. We walked 20 or 30 miles from Zhengcheng and went west to north. There were no one hundred miles north. As long as we saw people, they didn't ask who they were, but they were shot to death with an arrow. His eldest son wanted to run back in the dark and didn't run far, so he was shot to death. I didn't even dare to collect the body." The young man standing in front explained clearly that her sister turned her head and looked at the older man and sighed sadly. The older man covered his face and squatted down and cried bitterly.

Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng's faces were as heavy as water and looked at each other silently for a moment. Li Zongliang took half a step back and waved to Li Zonggui and ordered, "You and Erhuai look at them." Li Zonggui agreed and jumped to Li Erhuai's side and looked at the crowd with a knife. Li Erhuai's feet were slightly loosened, so that the round-faced iron wood could breathe comfortably.

Li Xiaoyao followed Li Zongliang and Wei Shuisheng to retreat to the side of the car. Li Zongliang breathed heavily and said in a low voice, "Look at this way, after Zhengcheng, it is a clear field with a strong wall. It is difficult to pass for 100 miles."

"Well, we have to explore clearly before leaving. At this time, I'm afraid there are officers and soldiers everywhere inside and outside Zhengcheng." Wei Shuisheng frowned and sighed and said. Li Xiaoyao listened attentively. His mind turned quickly, pulled Li Zongliang, and suggested in a low voice, "They have designated a place to settle down on the mountain. I think we might as well go to their place first and find out before we can go. They are here, the homes of these stupid bandits. It's the safest place."

Wei Shuisheng looked at Li Xiaoyao with wide eyes and stayed for a moment. His eyes slowly oozed with a smile. He turned his head and looked at Li Zongliang, who was more surprised than him, and whispered slowly, "Xiaoyao's words are not...

Li Xiaoyao rubbed Wei Shuisheng's arm, took Wei Shuisheng's arm, looked at Li Zongliang, whose face was so cloudy that he could get out of the water, and whispered, "Isn't there a chivalrous thief? Or did you tell me? We just borrowed it for a while. Besides, they are not bad people. Looking at this, it hasn't broken yet.

"Alas!" Li Zongliang's shoulder suddenly drooped, sighed heavily, reached out and stroked Li Xiaoyao's head, and looked at Wei Shuisheng. There were countless sadness in his voice: "We have left Lijia Village. It's okay to go first. Now, we are going to be a bandit."

"But it's just to borrow it for a few days. How can it be regarded as falling grass?" Wei Shuisheng corrected with a smile.

"Yes, yes, yes, it's just borrowing, not falling grass!" Li Xiaoyao bent his eyes and laughed, jumped over with his toes, and put his hand on Li Zongliang's arm: "Behold, what if it's for Kou? This bandit is also good and bad. We are bandits, and that's also good bandits. Isn't the emperor or prince and marquis of the previous dynasty also started from the grass bandits? This is nothing! Brother Shuisheng, don't you think so?

"Yes, it's not. The loser is the loser." Wei Shuisheng responded to Li Xiaoyao's words with a smile and looked up at Li Zongliang: "Let's live first. Master often says that as long as there is a human heart, everything is human, which is not a big deal."

Li Zongliang smiled bitterly and nodded sadly. Wei Shuisheng turned around with a long gun. Li Xiaoyao quickly let go of Li Zongliang, ran a few steps to follow Wei Shuisheng, pulled Wei Shuisheng's sleeves, and walked over together. Wei Shuisheng motioned Li Erhuai to release the round-faced ironwood and whispered, "I'll look, you two go there, and the eldest brother has something to say."

Li Erhuai and Li Zonggui quickly turned around and jumped to Li Zongliang in two steps. Wei Shuisheng looked back at Li Zongliang with a depressed face, pulled Li Xiaoyao behind him to protect him, stabbed Tie Mu, who had risen up and sat on the ground with a gun and asked, "What's your last name? What about her?"

"Zhang Tiemu! She is my elder sister, Sister Zhang!" Zhang Tiemu replied in a voice,

"Why do you remember falling into the grass here?"

"There used to live a nest of bandits on this mountain. Later, I thought this place was desolate and moved to Xishan. There was a house and a yard on the mountain, so we lived there."

"How do you know about this? How do you know about the mountain bandits here?

"My grandma was married on this pen! What don't you know!" Li Tiemu stared at Wei Shuisheng angrily. Wei Shuisheng blinked his eyes and continued to ask, "How many times have you done business? How much money did you rob?"

Li Tiemu's face was embarrassed, turned his head, and replied vaguely, "Three times, plus this time, three times, the first time, a group of escapees, didn't grab anything, took two cotton-padded jackets of my sister and me and went in. The second time, there was a darts master, and Brother Kan broke a leg. This is the third time."

Li Xiaoyao bent his eyes and smiled until his face turned red. Wei Shuisheng raised his eyebrows and poked Zhang Tiemu with a gun barrel: "It's the first time I've met such a useless bandit like you!"
