Chapter 3 Defeated Soldiers

Although Ye Bei has been traveling through time for a year, he knows little about the world. The old scholar and his senior sister don’t say much to him, but just urges him to practice martial arts. Ye Bei’s understanding of this world is limited to Zhaojia Village, and he only knows that this world is definitely not any history he is familiar with on earth.

Because on this land, the previous dynasty was called the "Great Northern Dynasties". Although it was similar to the feudal imperial country that Ye Bei was familiar with, he had never heard of this dynasty on earth. However, the Great Northern Dynasty seemed to have been destroyed ten years ago, and it was not surprising that Ye Bei had short hair when he first came, because short hair was also popular outside, which was probably an era similar to the "Great Qing Dynasty is over". As for whether it was, it still needed to leave Zhaojia Village before he could know.

To be honest, Ye Bei really wanted to leave the village because it was too boring in this closed environment, which made him, a time traveler, feel uncomfortable. Apart from playing games with some children, there is really no entertainment here. After a year bored, Ye Bei felt that he had reached his limit.

Unfortunately, the last words that Xiao Zhoutian would not be allowed to leave Zhaojia Village are still alive. Ye Bei couldn't say anything, so he could only practice hard.

"Junior brother, come here and try the soles."

Ye Bei only realized that the soles of the shoes were not taken by the senior sister for the old man, but prepared for him. He was so virtuous, moved, and wanted to cry.

"Your shoes really need to be replaced." Qin Ying doesn't look like a first-class expert at all, she is a beautiful and capable Chungu.

"Senior sister is so nice." Ye Bei wiped his honey from his mouth: "You must have been a fairy in your previous life."

Qin Ying lowered her head shyly.

Just as Ye Bei was talking loudly, Zhao Hu suddenly pushed open the yard door with an anxious face: "Not good?" The upright eyes were full of horror.

I originally thought that Zhao Hu was going to come to the door for trouble, but it was not the case.

Ye Bei also heard a disharmonious voice in the village, looked at the senior sister and stood up, and asked at the same time: "What's wrong?"

"I don't know where a group of soldiers emerged and arrested all the villagers in the field. Now they have entered the village, what should I do?" Zhao Hu was at a loss because the group of soldiers were aggressive and the visitors were not kind.

"Soldier, what soldier?" Ye Bei was puzzled.

"I'm afraid they were defeated deserters in the war." Qin Ying judged that this was not good news. These deserters had no rules, similar to robbers: "Brother Zhao, do they have weapons?"

"Yes, I have seen several guns." Zhao Hu has also been to the market and knew that there were guns in the local rich guards' ward. However, the guns in the ward guards were all old antiques, but the guns held by soldiers who broke into the village looked very advanced.

The sound of footsteps became closer and closer, and then there was a rush of chaos and cats and dogs, and the soldiers had really rushed into the village, and they must have been searching door to door now, and they were already very close to the earth-walled hut of the old scholar's house.

"Come with me." Qin Ying took Ye Bei and Zhao Hu to the inner room without any hesitation, moved away from the wardrobe, and there was a secret passage in the wall behind the wardrobe.

Ye Bei knew that there was a passage here, which was where they practiced: "Don't stand there, come in quickly."

Zhao Hu never expected that the old scholar's family would say secretly, but he couldn't hesitate at this time. He hid his doubts in his heart, and he also got into the secret door.

As soon as I restored the wardrobe, I heard the door being knocked open, and then the sound of rumbling through the cabinets.

"There is no one in this small courtyard, take away the food, and don't worry about the others." A soldier shouted.

The three of them hid in the secret passage, looked at each other, and the senior sister said, "Go in."

Continue to go deeper, there is a staircase leading to the ground, which is a very spacious space with oil lamps on the walls.

It was so extravagant that Zhao Hu felt thrust in his heart when he saw the oil lamp burning in broad daylight. Their family only lighted the lights during festivals. In this underground dark room, it actually lighted the lights all day long, so how much oil would be wasted.

"Where is this?" Zhao Hu's face full of questions. For the first time, he discovered that the childhood sweetheart goddess actually hid so many secrets.

"Brother Zhao, don't ask too much if you believe me." Qin Ying said.

Zhao Hu naturally believed in her: "Okay, I won't ask, I believe in you."

There were a few weapons in the dark room, and Zhao Hu immediately went to get a big knife: "What a iron, it's much sharper than my sickle." With the weapons, he became bolder: "You can't let those soldiers ruin our village, we have to fight out."

"Brother Zhao, don't take risks." The other party had a gun, and Qin Ying knew that the gun was not eye-catching. Although she could dodge bullets, she could dodge one person but not everyone, let alone Zhao Hu and Ye Bei, and they were not opponents.

The outside was already in chaos, the village was in a mess, the quilt was thrown into the yard, the chicken coop was completely removed, the stove was pried open, and the soldiers moved the pot outside and cooked in the drying yard at the village entrance.

The villagers felt distressed by the food and chicken feathers in the area. At this time, all men, women, old and young were gathered in the drying ground and squatting among the soldiers. There were seventy or eighty soldiers, each in a mess, and they were indeed defeated.

"I, Chu Damao, don't want to hurt you, I just borrowed your place to rest for two days. I will definitely leave after two days, so I will have to work hard for you these two days." It was not a discussion at all, and the villagers could not object. The big and thick bearded man in front of me had already decided.

The bearded man had the most neat military uniform, so he knew that he was the leader of this defeated general.

The villagers were trembling. They did not expect that Zhaojia Village would be patronized by deserters. The villagers who have been living a stable life have never seen such a formation.

"Who is the village chief? Come forward."

The old patriarch stood up tremblingly: "I am the patriarch of Zhaojia Village." His voice was also trembling.

"Very good, let's see if everyone is here?"

"Everything is here, everything is here." The old patriarch knew that his grandson and the two young people in the old scholar's academy had not arrived, but now he would just harm others if he told them.

"That's good. You guys stay here these days. I'll have someone to send the bedding here later. No one will leave, otherwise I'll be careful not to have eyes on my gun."

Bang.

Chu Damao pulled out the revolver on his waist and fired a shot. The tiles on the roof in the distance broke down and fell down in a sensation, frightening the villagers.

The gunshots were like thunder. Many aunts covered their children's ears, but they still couldn't stop the children's crying.

"Stop watching them, no one is allowed to run away." Bearded did not want to waste time, so he turned around and left: "Brothers, eat first, have a good rest. Everyone should believe that I, Chu, will definitely make a comeback with everyone, and everyone will be fully prepared. Follow me to join the Iron Blood Commander, and then fight back. Renhecheng is still our chassis."

The soldiers were obviously weak, but after the commander said he wanted to surrender to the Iron Blooded Marshal, he was still excited because he was one of the seven generals who divided the Jiuzhou continent. After surrendering to the Iron Blooded Marshal, he would no longer be afraid of the enemy.

Seeing that everyone's morale was improving again, I breathed a sigh of relief and went to the Zhao Family Ancestral Hall. In the small ancestral hall that worshiped the ancestors of Zhao Family Village, a graceful masked woman was wearing a white embroidered cheongsam, waiting silently like a snake demon.

Her beautiful eyes were not angry, as if she had seen through the world and had no attachment to her anymore.

The beard standing at the door immediately laughed when he thought of having a beauty. It seemed that the war for the beauty was completely worth it, and it was also completely worth it.
