This news was like a huge rock smashing into the water, shocking everyone who was eating and drinking.

"ah!"

In the crowd, a village woman screamed in fear.

The scream woke everyone up. They left their things and fled around with horror.

For a moment, the screams of women, the crying of children, and the sound of tables, chairs, bowls and chopsticks colliding.

Anyway, it's completely messy here...

...

I noticed two girls, holding the corner of his clothes tightly, and his body trembled slightly, obviously scared.

Zhang Rui raised his hand, touched their little heads, and comforted softly: "Don't be afraid, with me here, they won't hurt a strand of your hair."

After hearing Zhang Rui's words, they were scared, but their little hands were holding the corner of his clothes tightly.

"Dad, what should I do?" Zhang Zhong walked over with a knife and asked with a drunkenness.

"You can't run away. Stay with the bandits and use money to buy peace." Zhang Rui said gritting his teeth as he looked at the bandits getting closer and closer.

Immediately afterwards, he spoke harshly to those lazy men who defected to him, second-rate men and others, "You eat and drink me these days, and now it is the time for you to repay me."

If you dare to run away, don’t blame me for not recognizing the knife in my hand.”

After saying that, he raised the knife with his right hand and slashed it hard.

"Master, the young man can't run!"

"Don't run! Don't run!"

Due to the past tyranny of Zhang Rui and his son, they could only nod and bow.

Hearing their reply, Zhang Rui nodded with satisfaction.

Although I know that these eight people are unreliable, they are always better than their father and son, facing the bandits alone.

As the time of speaking, the bandits came to them.

At first glance, there were at least fifty bandits. They were wearing messy clothes and holding various weapons such as swords and wooden sticks.

At this time, a fat man wearing pink flowers and a fat face walked out of the crowd.

The fat man looked at the messy banquet and asked, "Which family is doing the wedding?"

Everyone did not dare to speak, but looked at Zhang Rui one after another.

Zhang Rui cursed inwardly, and gritted his teeth and went forward and replied, "This king is my happy event."

"It just so happens that I am short of money to spend, so I borrow some money to use it." The fat man said with a smile.

"Since you want money, everything is easy to say, I just don't know how much this guy wants?"

Thinking of this, Zhang Rui tentatively said: "I wonder how much the king wants?"

"It's easy to say, only five hundred taels of silver." The fat man said casually.

"Damn fat man, go ahead and your mother, my family property is not as much." Zhang Rui lowered his head, but cursed in his heart.

"Oh! But what's the use of scolding again? Now I can only endure this anger and see if I can make this fat man less money." Zhang Rui sighed and secretly thought.

"The Second Head, there are two peerless beauties there." A thin man with a slim look and pointed at the two women behind Zhang Rui.

The fat man looked in the direction he pointed at. Sure enough, two peerless beauties came into view.

The fat man wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth, narrowed his eyes and said with malicious intentions: "It's like this! It's not easy for you. As long as you hand over the two little ladies behind you to me, you will be exempted from 500 taels of silver."

As soon as these words came out, the two girls behind Zhang Rui became even more scared and the clothes in his hands were tighter.

Of course, what they were more worried about was that the man in front of them agreed to the bandit.

As for Zhang Rui, he was furious.

"Go to your mother, are you shameless?" Zhang Rui could no longer help but curse.

As soon as these words came out, the fat man's face suddenly became cold and he said, "It seems that you don't agree, so I'll take it myself."

"Fatty, if you dare to come over, I will chop you up." Zhang Zhong snorted coldly, stood in front of Zhang Rui, and pointed the fat man with a knife.

Zhang Rui turned around and looked at the two girls, grinned and said, "Be good, let's go into the house first."

Without waiting for their reply, Zhang Rui took the two of them and walked into the house.

Then he handed Minglan a knife, then closed the door, turned around and came to Zhang Zhong with a cold face.

He issued a reward order to the trembling villagers: "Friends, if anyone kills a bandit, he will be exempted from the money he owes me. Not only that, I can take whatever I have at home.

Also, if anyone catches that fat man alive, he will be rewarded with thirty taels of silver, and he will be given twenty taels of death."

As soon as these words were said, the villagers' eyes were red and they were panting. Some even secretly found a good guy.

Of course, I was even more furious about the bandits, especially the fat man.

They didn't expect that Zhang Rui would actually have his own life.

"Brothers, men and children are killed, whoever grabs the wealth or women will be who?"

Hearing this, the bandits behind the fat man held the weapons in their hands one by one, waiting for his words.

The fat man didn't talk nonsense and directly ordered: "Brothers, I'll grab money and rob women."

As soon as the words were finished, the bandits rushed forward in a swarm.

At the same time, when Zhang Rui and his son saw that the bandits were the first to do something, they didn't talk nonsense, so they raised the knife in their hands and rushed forward.

The villagers even shouted, raised the guy in their hands and rushed towards the target they had already chosen.

But once the two sides fought, they were beaten up by the bandits.

When the first dead person appeared, the villagers on his side fled.

There is no way, the villagers are all honest people, how could they beat these bandits who licked blood at the tip of the knife?

If Zhang Rui and his son had not tried their best to kill a few bandits, and some brave villagers, they would have been killed by bandits long ago.

But there is also an advantage, that is, seeing that Zhang Rui and his son are so fierce, they dare not go up one by one.

In short, the number of people on both sides is about 150 or 60.

But if you really dare to kill someone, the two sides will have no more than twenty people.

For a moment, Zhang Rui and his side actually fought with bandits.

But there were too many bandits, and Zhang Rui and his son were at a disadvantage and were about to die here.

At this moment, Zhang Rui felt a cool breeze coming from behind, and his heart tightened. Before he could react, he heard a "whisper" sound in his ear, and something shot towards him tightly against his ear.

"puff"

The fat man in front of him was shot in the chest by an arrow, screaming and falling to the ground and moaning.

When Zhang Rui looked back, he saw that more than ten feet away, a man of medium figure was holding a large bow in his hand and a sharp axe on his waist.

Behind him were villagers holding all kinds of guys.

The man put the bow into his neck, then picked up the axe at his waist, roared, and rushed forward.

I saw him holding an axe and slashing towards the bandit. With one axe, the bandit's head was divided into two.

He slapped the blood on his face and rushed towards the next target. In just one breath, three people died under the axe.

Such a cruel man not only shocked the bandits, but also surprised Zhang Rui.

He quickly asked the villagers beside him: "Who is that person?"

The villagers saw it and said, "Xu Gai!"
