Chapter 148 The child with secondary disease
"Then let everyone rest for a while and drink something hot. We will set off soon." As he said this, Baitao yawned again.
If I had known, I would have missed watching two episodes of "Pleasant Goat" yesterday.
Bai Duoxi came here early, and her people had already set up a few simple stoves, boiled some water and cooked ginger soup, and then distributed the hot ginger soup to the villagers.
"Auntie, please drink some ginger soup, I added brown sugar."
"Yeah." Baitao sniffed, took the soup bowl, drank most of it, wiped the corners of his mouth, handed the bowl over, and asked: "Is there any problem with having haggis soup for lunch?"
"No problem!" Bai Duoxi responded without thinking.
Not to mention haggis soup, if my aunt wants to eat it, he will make a whole roasted lamb.
Just as Bai Duoxi thought about it, Baitao said again: "Let's roast the whole lamb tonight. I haven't eaten it for a long time."
It doesn’t matter if Big Big Wolf didn’t eat the sheep, she did!
Bai Duoxi felt nervous and said hurriedly: "Yes, my aunt."
Next time, don't think too much in front of my aunt, or she will think he is greedy.
When most of the bandits on the other side of the river saw the Baijiabao caravan crossing the ice, they immediately hid in the stronghold. I can't afford to offend them, so I can't afford to hide.
But there are still bandits who are not convinced. Of course, it doesn't matter whether they are convinced or not. They are mainly interested in the supplies of the Baijiapu caravan.
With so many carriages and pack trucks, if such fat sheep were let go, they would still be considered bandits.
There is also Qinxincao on the other side of the river. When they saw that the Baijiabao caravan did not set off immediately, someone came to inquire about it.
"Ah, no need. It took a lot of time and we have to hurry up." Bai Dashan never said that there would be no grass heart left in the branches of the Qinxin grass.
Knowing that the caravan was on its way, these people felt it was a pity, but they also felt that it was good to go on the road, as both left and right had to go all the way, and they were not afraid that there would be no chance of working on the road.
It took a while to cross the ice and river, so we only walked a dozen miles in the morning.
The people in Taohua Village had explored the area in advance, but they were not as familiar with the terrain as the bandits who lived here.
A group of bandits who regarded this territory as their own territory looked at the row of carriages and pack trucks with great envy.
Even if some of the bandits were worried and tried to dissuade them, they could not stop them.
"The other side is useless, we are different from them."
"That's right, there are so many things, enough for us to eat and drink for a while." In the current world, if we let this fat sheep go, we don't know what year or month we want to meet him again.
"Brothers, the fat sheep is right in front of us. So many things are coming to our door, can we let them go?"
"No!" Letting such fat sheep go is no different from cutting their flesh.
"The boss, we have to do this."
"This is our territory. How can we let a duck that has reached its mouth run away..."
Here in Taohua Village, the haggis soup had just been cooked and before the fire was turned off, I heard the sound of many horse hooves galloping towards me.
The people in Taohua Village immediately raised their weapons and were on alert, and Bai Dashan, who had climbed up on the box in Taohua Village and used binoculars to see the movement when the noise was heard, was also shouting down at this time.
"Alert, bandits are coming!"
"There are more than thirty horses."
When Taohua Village shouted, people outside knew what was going on. For a moment, these people were in a panic, holding their belongings and looking for places to hide.
On the Peach Blossom Village side, preparations are being made in an orderly manner.
When it comes to dealing with bandits, the people in Taohua Village are already very experienced.
There were horse-drawn carriages and pack wagons serving as bunkers, and everyone knew who was in which position.
When they heard that there were horses, someone immediately rushed out and pulled up two horse ropes at the place they had previously watched.
The young and middle-aged people are in the front, the old and the children are in the back. The first batch of crossbows are fired, followed by the second batch.
Under the bursts of crossbow arrows, the bandits on horseback did not pay attention to the situation on the ground at all.
When the first horse tripping rope was pulled up, many horses in the front were tripped. Although some bandits behind were able to hold the horses, they would be knocked out by their companions who were too late. At this time, if you pull up the second horse rope about ten meters away, most of the bandits on horseback will be eliminated.
For a time, these bandits broke into chaos before they could reach the camp in Taohua Village, killing and injuring more than a dozen people.
At this time, the people of Taohua Village took advantage of the chaos and took advantage of the situation, using bows, crossbows, swords, sticks, whatever they had at their disposal.
Many women in the village rolled up their sleeves and wielded the weapons in their hands with great force.
The eldest girl and the young daughter-in-law showed no mercy in killing the bandits. Some even counted: "One, two, three, four, what about you? If you don't fall down, where will I get four?"
Someone next to me said excitedly: "You are only four, I am already six."
"Hahaha, then I have more than you, I have nine." Bai Chunhua was lying on the box of the pack truck as she spoke, and the crossbow in her hand fired accurately.
After defeating the bandits, the village head count will give you five taels of silver per head.
If ten bandits are killed, there will be fifty taels of silver.
Even if they all have one hundred and eighty taels in their hands now, no one would have too much money.
Only when you have money can you buy things for your aunt to honor your aunt.
Bai Duoxi swung two fire sticks, knocking one down with one stick, and did not forget to shout.
"The haggis soup is cooked, but it won't taste good after the heat. Please work harder, my aunt is still hungry."
As soon as he finished speaking, the people in Peach Blossom Village became even more crazy.
It's okay if the haggis soup is overcooked, but my aunt is determined not to do it if she's hungry.
"Ah ah ah, I asked you to come here." Damn it for delaying our aunt's meal.
"I let you run, I let you run..."
This scene made the people who hid in Saya as soon as they heard the bandits coming were stunned for a moment.
No, the people from the Baijiabao caravan look more ferocious than the bandits at the moment!
Yang Song was also killing the bandits with the people of Taohua Village. Although he had seen the abilities of the women and children of the Baijiabao caravan, he still couldn't help but his cheeks twitched in horror.
"Don't you have the ability to rob us? Why run away?"
"Come back here and let me chop you twice first!"
White shouted while chasing after him: "Don't go, if you are a man, fight me."
Yang Song kicked a bandit away and glanced at the person shouting. The expression on his face could no longer be described in words.
White had just finished shouting here, and a few teenagers aged 12 or 13 shouted angrily over there: "Don't run away, the decisive battle will last until dawn!"
"Come as soon as you say, leave as soon as you say, what do you think we are!"
"Look at my Foshan shadowless feet."
"Take a stick from my grandson."
"Look at my dragon wagging its tail..."
"This is the Nine Yin White Bone Claw!!!"
"Monkey steals peach!"
"The roc spreads its wings!!"
"..."
These excited shouts could be heard from time to time amid the roars of bandits and the howls of ghosts and wolves.
Baitao's forehead at the back twitched, these middle-class children.
Bai Dashan also heard these shouts. He turned his head and looked at Baitao, showing an innocent smile.
