"well!"

In the dark night, Zhang Rui opened his eyes and sighed.

He has always been good at sleeping, but now he is worried about something and has lost insomnia.

The root cause is that at noon yesterday, the escaped bandits were afraid that they would come back to take revenge.

After all, the lesson I learned last time impressed him.

"well!"

It seemed that Zhang Rui couldn't help but sigh when he thought of the scene he was hunted by Gu Tingye last time.

"What's wrong? Are you still worried about what happened yesterday?"

Minglan, who had a light sleep quality, heard Zhang Rui sighing one after another, opened her eyes and asked worriedly.

Seeing Minglan being woken up by her, Zhang Rui touched her hair and looked apologetic: "Girl, the sound is too loud, so it makes you sleep well."

Minglan leaned her little head against Zhang Rui's chest, stretched out her right hand, stroked his rough cheeks, and asked softly: "Are you worried about the bandits' revenge?"

"well!"

Zhang Rui did not reply, but sighed again.

Minglan, who has always been smart, knows the answer from his sigh.

For a moment, the two of them fell silent, with only their subtle gasps.

At this moment, the intermittent sounded: "The meat...eat...delicious..."

Zhang Rui looked at it with the subtle light and Rulan held her left hand and started talking in her sleep.

"This girl, such a big thing happened, she can still sleep like this."

Zhang Rui wiped the saliva from the corner of her mouth and sighed.

Then he kissed Minglan gently, and said softly: "Girl, go to bed!"

Minglan knew that she couldn't help, so she obediently said "um" and closed her eyes to sleep on Zhang Rui's arm.

As for Zhang Rui, he lay flat on the bed and stared at the bed board, wondering what he was thinking?

...

"Dad, are you crazy?" Zhang Zhong shouted directly.

Zhang Ji stared at Zhang Rui's face incredible.

What Zhang Rui said made the two brothers react so much.

Early this morning, Zhang Rui called two brothers with dark circles in his eyes and told them that he was going to take his people to fight Heifeng Village.

As a result, as soon as the words were finished, the two brothers reacted so loudly.

Zhang Ji was afraid that he would be stubborn and quickly advised, "Dad, can you beat me?"

"Fight, of course I have to fight." Zhang Rui looked at the two brothers and said, "Dad thought about it all night. If he didn't do it first, those bandits would definitely come to take revenge."

"Since the bandits come to take revenge, it's better for us to move away, so the bandits can't find us." Zhang Ji's eyes lit up and he blurted out.

At this time, Zhang Zhong, who had not spoken, suddenly said, "Where to move, where to move? It's better to listen to your father and take people to destroy the bandits."

"Second brother, dad is crazy, are you crazy too?" Zhang Ji never expected that the second brother would agree with Zhang Rui's words.

Unexpectedly, when Zhang Zhong saw him repeatedly, he advised Zhang Rui again and again, and said dissatisfied: "Three, if you are afraid of death, I will follow my father."

"Second brother, you... okay, can I go?" Zhang Ji saw the second brother say this, and he had to go if he didn't go.

Zhang Rui, who was standing by, was very happy to see the two brothers agreeing to go.

Since you decide to fight the bandits, you must prepare well, otherwise you will attack rashly and die.

In the following time, Zhang Rui and his two brothers began to discuss the fight against bandits.

...

Two days later, Zhang Ji had breakfast and took the things he bought from the county to Xu Gai's house.

The purpose is to ask Xu Gai to take action and fight the bandits together.

After all, Xu Gai's courage is comparable to Zhang Zhong.

When he arrived at Xu Gai's house, Zhang Ji shouted loudly: "Brother Xu, are Brother Xu at home?"

It's very lucky that Xu Gai is at home, otherwise he should have hunted in the mountains at this time.

Xu Gai came out of his house and saw Zhang Ji and the strong man and the things behind him.

"Why are you here for my house?"

Xu Gai asked straight to the point.

Zhang Ji didn't say nonsense, saying, "Brother Xu, my father said, please fight the bandits of Heifeng Village with him.

These twenty taels of silver, and what is behind me, are considered as the reward for Brother Xu’s actions.”

After saying that, Zhang Ji smiled and waited for his reply.

After listening, Xu Gai was secretly surprised: "I didn't expect that Zhang Rui was so talented that he had the courage to fight Heifeng Village."

After being surprised, Xu Gai laughed at himself, "This Zhang Rui is really overestimating his abilities..."

After thinking about it, Xu Gai directly refused and said, "Forget it, I don't want to die yet."

Seeing that he refused, Zhang Ji was not disappointed, but continued to persuade him.

...

On the other side, Zhang Rui was discussing matters with Zhang Zhong and others in the room.

"Second, how are things going?"

Zhang Rui straightened the point straight.

Zhang Zhong replied: "Dad, there are more than 100 people, there are ten stones of food, and there are very few weapons."

Zhang Rui frowned and asked, "Why are there so few people?"

When Zhang Zhong heard this, he smiled bitterly and said, "Dad, when the people in this village heard that they were going to fight the bandits, they were afraid that they would not dare to go.

Only these people were found by my son who went to a nearby village and cheated and coaxed them and added money."

"Oh, there are only more than one hundred people, how can I fight? What if there are more bandits than ours, what should I do?" Zhang Rui's brows became more and more frowning.

At this time, the door was pushed open, Zhang Ji walked in and said, "Dad, Xu Gai agreed, fight the bandits with us."

"It's finally good news." Zhang Rui thought silently in his heart.

“…”

"Uncle, there are fewer people!" Zhang Rui cursed inwardly.

Immediately afterwards, he instructed Zhang Zhong: "Second, go and pass the message to them today and set off with the guy early tomorrow morning."

"Three, stay at home. If there is a miserable person, you will send them home. Do you understand?" Zhang Rui stared at Zhang Ji and arranged the funeral.

As for them, they are two of their own girls.

Zhang Ji was a little panicked and said, "Dad, why not...No..."

"Okay, that's it." Seeing him covering his face, Zhang Rui interrupted directly.

As for what he wanted to say, he told himself not to go and the family moved out of this place.

...

Early the next morning, people came to Xiaozhai Village one after another, and each of them was holding various weapons.

There are also good hoes, wooden sticks, etc., such as sickles, swords, etc., but few people hold swords.

At this time, a noise broke out in the crowd and their eyes were staring at someone.

This man was Xu Gai who came out of his home. He had a big bow on his upper body, a pot of arrows hanging around his waist, and a long pole mountain-piercing axe in his hand. The weight was probably fifty or sixty kilograms!

It's no wonder that this person is like a general, so why isn't he eye-catching?
