Bandits A and B were so frightened that they immediately dared not say a word.

Going down the mountain?

Even if I kill you, I won’t go!

It was because my family was so poor that I couldn't take the blame, and I was almost forced to death by the local bully landlord, so I fled to the mountains to become a bandit.

Being a bandit in the mountains requires training every day, just like joining the army, but you can still have enough food and clothing.

Even though this year, there have been famines and insect plagues everywhere, and there are floods in the south...

There were people dying of hunger everywhere, and there were scattered hungry refugees everywhere. Officers and soldiers were fighting in many places. People on the road were busy grabbing territory and fighting for the top of the mountain. There was chaos everywhere.

Going down the mountain at this time? Isn’t that asking for death? Bandit A and B are not stupid!

"Coach, we are just talking nonsense, we are just joking, we really don't mean it!" Bandit A hurriedly laughed with the coach.

Bandit B also quickly echoed: "Yes, yes, we brothers have absolutely obeyed orders since we entered the village. The village leader and the instructor told us to go east and never to the west. They asked us to fight chickens and never scold dogs. I swear.

!”

The instructor glared at brothers A and B and said: "You are such a mouthful. When it comes time to fight, you will use real swords and guns. If you don't have any real skills to defend yourself, you will be the first to die!"

Brothers A and B nodded repeatedly, "The instructor is right. Then you are busy. We brothers will go on to practice!"

Looking at the figures of brothers A and B running away, the coach felt some empathy in his heart.

I think that when I was trained in this way, my rebellious mood was no less than that of brothers A and B.

I feel that this village is really doomed. To replace such a young child as the village leader is simply nonsense, treating adults like them like monkeys!

Bandits and bandit dens, don't they just eat meat and drink wine, go down the mountain to block roads and rob, and when they see beautiful women, they take them back to the cottage to sleep in?

How come it's like being in the army, with a set of strict disciplines, and you have to practice every day, just messing around!

But since I followed the little village leader to the hostile village on the opposite hill and had a fierce battle with the group of bandits, I suddenly began to appreciate the strict training the little village leader gave me some time ago.

Compared to death, being tired from training is really nothing.

Later, he followed the small village leader one after another to fight against several government sieges and attacks by other mountain forces, and almost always won a complete victory. From then on, he became more and more convinced of the small village leader.

In response to that sentence, ambition does not depend on age. Some people, even if they are young enough to be your son,

But his abilities and skills are enough to make you willing to call him daddy!

The village leader is just such a person, a young prodigy!

While the young bandits were training enthusiastically on the training ground, behind the village, on the entire terraced fields, the older bandits and the women of some bandit families were busy in the fields with farm tools.

With.

It is also surrounded by mountains, with mountains within the mountains.

The hilltop where Xiaoyao Village is located is a naturally dangerous place, which is easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The large area behind the cottage was not like this before last year. It was a hillside with undulating hillsides.

After the village leader arrived, he walked around this area for three days, holding a piece of paper and a pen in his hand, stopping and moving, reading and drawing.

Three days later, the owner of the small village gave a blueprint to the two elders of the village and asked them to lead all the brothers in the village to cut down trees and create terraced fields.

A pond was dug under the terraces near the waterfall to divert water, and mulberry and fruit trees were planted beside the pond.

At the end of April, the world was in chaos outside, and there was not enough food everywhere.

In the past, at this time of year, there was a shortage of food. The bandits were so hungry in the mountains that they could only frequently go down to rob.

But this year is different.

The owner of the small village brought a large amount of grain, fruits and vegetables from the east, took everyone to plant rice in the terraces, and arranged for the old and weak bandits, or bandits with farming experience, to take care of it.

Those who are strong can take off and go to the front to train.

Many bandits were born into poverty and were forced to hide in the mountains because they had no choice but to miss their parents, wives and children in their hometown.

In the past, the rule in the village was that once you became a bandit, you were never allowed to go back.

Once you find out, you have broken the rules. Even if you are not caught by the government for sneaking home to visit your relatives, you will still be beaten to death when you return to the village.

But the owner of the village introduced a new rule.

Bandits can go home to visit relatives regularly, and if conditions permit, they can also bring their parents, wives and children back to the mountains.

As a result, the terraced fields, vegetable fields, orchards, fish ponds, and mulberry trees behind the cottage were all taken care of.

The seeds of hope are sown in spring. In summer, when there are insect infestations and droughts outside, the weather is smooth in the mountains.

In autumn, there is no harvest outside and war breaks out.

This village has ushered in a good harvest. The fruits are fragrant, the fish are fat, and the pigs are strong.

Everyone is self-sufficient and self-reliant. There is no need to go down the mountain to rob and do such a derogatory business.

Moreover, the village leader also helped a protector to find his sister who was lost when he fled.

My sister was taken back to the village and married to a good brother who was a protector of the law. After the New Year, the village will welcome its first native-born new life.

In a small courtyard in front of the cottage.

Although the season is already after the "heavy snow", the small courtyard is still full of birds singing and the fragrance of flowers.

In one of the bedrooms, which is elegant and has a strong scholarly atmosphere, a young man wearing a white satin straight suit with silver fox fur inlays on his cuffs and collar is writing at a desk.

Just by looking at his stature, one might think that this child is already nine years old, but in fact, he is still a few months short of seven.

He has a childish face with almost no flaws in his handsome facial features.

The very bony fingers hold the brush and stroke it freely on the white paper. The words written are powerful and powerful, domineering but not ostentatious, restrained but profound, and handsome but full of strength.

Of course, insiders will look at the door and laymen will look at the fun.

"Oh my, the village leader is really awesome, this word is written well! Wow!"

Beside the desk, a bearded man stretched his neck, praised with a glowing face, and raised his thumb like a radish.

Standing next to the bearded man was a man wearing blue clothes and a flat square scarf on his head.

This man is different from the bearded man. The bearded man has a gangster air, while this man has a bookish air.

Hearing the big bearded man's compliment, the bookish man raised his hand and covered the corner of his mouth with a fan and smiled.

"Big Beard, you praise our village leader for his good calligraphy, so why do you dare to say hello? You should be more careful, otherwise, your compliment will not be sincere at all!"

Hearing the scholar's words, the bearded man's eyes widened, he twisted his neck and said, "It's good, it's just comfortable at first glance. Where do you get so many tricks?"
