Chapter 15, The Crow's Mouth! My Brothers and I Will Not Die
If the original itinerary were followed, Master Xu would arrive at about the same time as the dead man.
However, something unexpected happened now, and Martial Master Xu cannot survive, but the dead soldiers will definitely come.
The surrounding sounds seemed to disappear all of a sudden, the air in his chest was instantly emptied, and a helpless despair enveloped Minghai.
Minghai seems to be in boundless darkness, surrounded by abyss.
Seeing Minghai's eyes that had lost their light and hope, the village chief closed his eyes and made a difficult decision, "Go back and talk to your brothers and sisters. Come over and hide in my cellar tomorrow morning."
Can't we find people if we hide? The county magistrates from various places notified all the families of the soldiers who died with Minghai's father and mother. The family in Yuan'an County also hid early, but in the end, the dead soldiers were found one by one without any trace.
Kill them all without mercy.
They even killed the people who took in that family.
At this moment, the village chief was ready. When the four brothers and sisters of Minghai arrived tomorrow, he would send his son Luo Shitou away, and then go to the town to find the magistrate to see if he could send more people.
Grandma Luo would not leave, because it was Grandma Luo who first suggested hiding the four Minghai brothers and sisters in their home.
When Minghai walked out of the village chief's house, all the blood on his face had faded. He tried hard to pretend to smile, but the corners of his mouth kept trembling, which was uglier than crying.
Mingying felt Minghai's aura of fear and despair before death again, even more than last time.
Even the village chief who came out with him seemed to be a little bit contaminated.
"Go back and take your brothers and sisters to have a good night's rest." The village chief patted Minghai on the shoulder.
The young man's immature shoulders seemed to bend a lot all of a sudden.
"Thank you, village chief." Minghai finally spoke his first complete sentence after hearing the news.
The village chief nodded, said nothing, and went to the kitchen.
Minghai twitched the corners of his mouth forcefully, "Second brother, third brother, sister, let's go home."
The few people had just taken a few steps when the village chief chased them out, "I'll deliver the rabbit meat for you Uncle Ergui and Aunt Luo."
Minghai didn't refuse. He could only walk now with perseverance.
After returning home, Minghai cleaned off the snow on Mingying's body, put her on the bed, took off her shoes for her, touched her head and said: "Sister, you go to sleep for a while, while the eldest brother, second brother and third brother go to process the rabbit meat.
, let’s make stew for dinner tonight.”
Mingying nodded obediently.
Ming Tao was very happy when he heard that rabbit meat was stewed in the evening, "I'll take care of it!"
Mingze took a deep look at Minghai. It was still early at this time and it was not time to prepare dinner. He remembered that when he was on the mountain in the morning, he asked Minghai what happened, and Minghai said he would talk about it later.
Mingze guessed that there must be something important, and Minghai was ready to tell them.
Watching Mingying close her eyes on the bed, Minghai called his two younger brothers and quietly went to the kitchen.
After they left, Mingying opened her eyes on the bed, climbed out of the bed and put on her shoes, ready to eavesdrop.
Even Mingze guessed that Minghai had something big to tell them, how could Mingying not guess it?
There was a soft sound from the door, "Mingying, Mingying." It was Luo Shitou's voice, which was very low, but it could be heard that he was panicked.
Mingying opened it gently and let Luo Shitou in.
"Brothers are in the kitchen." Mingying whispered.
Luo Shitou was covered in snow, his face was pale, and his eyes were frightened, "Mingying, it's not good! Someone is going to kill you!"
Previously, Mingying said that she would repay Luo Shitou by secretly leaving him a piece of rabbit meat. Luo Shitou was very moved.
When the village chief asked Minghai to come into the room to talk, Luo Shitou secretly went outside to eavesdrop under the window of the village chief's room on the pretext of going to relieve himself.
From Luo Shitou's intermittent description, Mingying roughly understood the ins and outs of the matter, and also understood why both Minghai and the village chief showed the aura of a dying person.
Before the original owner's parents died, they killed a soldier. The soldier was the only son of a general from the Soochow Kingdom, their archrival in the Yuezhao Kingdom. The general was devastated by the loss of his only son and wanted to kill the Yuezhao Kingdom who killed his only son.
The soldier's family buried his only son.
The soldiers sent out have already killed several families, and now they are about to kill the four brothers and sisters.
The village chief originally found martial arts master Xu from the Qinglong Martial Arts Academy to help through his connections, but the road was blocked by heavy snow and martial arts master Xu could not get through.
Even if we find a way to get here, it may take ten days and a half, and the dead soldiers sent by Soochow Kingdom will arrive in three days at the latest.
"My father told you to go to my house tomorrow morning and hide in the cellar of my house. Mingying, will they find our house?" Luo Shitou said fearfully.
Mingying didn't say anything, but she knew that if hiding worked, the village chief would ask Minghai to take them to find a place to hide as soon as they received the news.
They went to the village chief's house to hide, but the village chief couldn't bear to see them die like this and wanted to try his best to help them.
Mingying thought of the police officer who had just sent a letter to the village chief. At the time, she wondered why the police officer would deliver the letter. Now she thought that the police officer might have been ordered to patrol the area and brought the letter along the way.
There is also the mute grandfather who hangs around their house from time to time, most likely to protect them.
"Luo Xiaopang, is that martial artist Xu really powerful? If he comes, can he deal with those dead soldiers alone?"
Luo Shitou said absently: "Of course he is very powerful. If I can get into Qinglong Martial Arts Academy, maybe he will be my martial arts master."
Mingying asked along the way: "Don't you want to be a pharmacist? Why are you taking the Qinglong Martial Arts Academy exam?"
Luo Shitou looked at her like an idiot, "To be a pharmacist, you must first pass the Qinglong Martial Arts Academy! No matter what you become, it will be great if you pass the Qinglong Martial Arts Academy!"
"You ask what these people are doing, you and your brothers are going to die."
Crow's Mouth! My brothers and I will not die!
If you don’t understand the combat effectiveness of both sides, how can you find a solution?
But it was impossible for Luo Xiaopang to know too much. Mingying said: "Luo Xiaopang, please go back. Don't come over tonight. I will bring you meat tomorrow morning."
Seeing Luo Shitou's frightened expression, Mingying lowered her voice and comforted: "Don't be afraid, your father is so powerful, he will definitely solve it."
Luo Shitou looked sad, his father was very powerful, but he was not a martial artist!
Now his father is missing an arm, and even a thousand of his fathers cannot beat a martial artist!
But if his father can't solve it, what can Mingying, a sick man, do?
Luo Shitou was full of thoughts, "Then I'll leave first."
At the same time, the two brothers Mingtao and Mingze also knew about the dead soldiers, and they knew it in more detail than Mingying.
After listening to this, even Mingtao, who had always been nervous, turned pale.
Although Mingze was well prepared, he was still less than seven years old. How could he remain calm when faced with life and death issues?
"Brother...are we really going to...die?" Mingze asked tremblingly.
"I, I haven't eaten enough meat yet, and I haven't earned a lot of money to buy silk flowers for my sister's dowry. I don't want to die, wuwu."
Ming Tao flattened his mouth and wanted to cry loudly, but Ming Hai covered his mouth, "Don't let my sister hear it, she will be scared."
Mingying, who came over to eavesdrop after Luo Shitou left, felt a sore nose when she heard this.
Even though I was extremely scared, I was still worried that she would be scared.
Ming Tao closed his mouth and burst into tears, but did not cry out.
"The dead man will come when the time comes. Third brother, you are fast and smart. Take your sister and run up the mountain and hide her. My second brother and I will block her."
After Minghai finished speaking to Mingze, he then said to Mingtao: "Second brother, don't be afraid, eldest brother will protect you."
Ming Tao wiped away the tears that flowed down his chin, "Brother, I'm scared, but I won't back down! My parents are heroes, I am my parents' son, and I am a little hero. I will fight Wu Thief to the end!"
Mingze said with red eyes: "Eldest brother, second brother, I will definitely protect my sister and never let her get hurt!"
Mingying rubbed her sore eyes and lay back on the bed.
Her body was very tired, but her mind was very clear. She recalled a person she had killed in her previous life.
That man had committed many crimes, but because he was rich and powerful, he finally ignored them. A family member of the victim paid her to kill him, and she accepted.
The man was well-informed. He heard the news from somewhere and knew that someone was going to kill him. He immediately hired forty or fifty bodyguards and formulated a sophisticated protection plan to provide personal protection 24 hours a day.
She looked at it all with a cold eye, taking in all the arrangements of that person, and then she went to the park leisurely and had afternoon tea every day like no one else, without being in a hurry to take action.
It wasn't until the man thought his killer had given up that she gave him a fatal blow at the moment when he relaxed his vigilance.
Luo Shitou said that the dead men killed a family in Yuan'an County three days ago. It took six days to get here from Yuan'an County, so the dead men would arrive in about three days.
But based on Mingying's experience, it is impossible for those dead soldiers to arrive in about three days.
As a dead soldier, if you don't succeed, you will die. If they want to complete the mission without fail and survive, they will definitely make a precise plan. How can they let people calculate their whereabouts so easily?
