Li Zheng told everyone to disperse and do as Li Qingxiu said, then he looked at Li Qingxiu and asked: "Qingxiu girl, these two candles in your hand are beeswax candles, right?"

Li Qingxiu smiled slightly. "This is not only a beeswax candle, it also contains a potent drug. Just light it and smell a little and you will be knocked unconscious.

I don't make much of this drugged candle, so I wanted to use a fire to create more smoke. "

The drugged candle in Li Qingxiu's hand was made from the drug and beeswax that were used to stun you before, and it came in handy now.

When Li Zheng heard that Li Qingxiu had drugs in his hand, he felt more at ease.

Li Lei was still a little worried when he looked at the two candles in Li Qingxiu's hand. "Qingxiu, although your two candles are thicker than ordinary candles, there are a lot of people on the other side. Just these two candles shouldn't be able to stun them all."

Li Qingxiu vowed: "Brother Li Lei, don't worry, these two items are enough, there may be more."

At this time, Li Dazhuang also expressed his worries, "Qingxiu, this drug is so powerful, will it also knock us out?"

When the others heard this, they all started talking.

"Yes, Qingxiu said just now that she would faint if she smelled it a little, so what if we inhale it?"

"When the time comes, we have to faint together and wake up together. It's useless to stun them. We still can't defeat King Zhao's army."

Li Qingxiu comforted them one by one: "Don't worry, fellow villagers, we have the protection of the mountain gods. This mist cannot blow into the Lihua Valley."

Now everyone is full of awe and trust in the mountain god. After listening to Li Qingxiu's words, they feel a little more at ease.

At this time, many people came over carrying firewood, and Li Qingxiu arranged for them to build fires on both sides of the mountain road at the entrance to Lihua Valley.

She used a dagger to cut the drugged candles into small pieces and placed one or two pieces on each fire.

Then everyone was asked to go back to Lihua Valley, and Li Qingxiu got two pieces of cloth and stuffed them into her nostrils.

Then she started lighting the fire from the outermost fire until both sides of the fire were lit, and then she quickly ran back to the Pear Blossom Valley.

Li Qingxiu was afraid of the smell on her body, so she asked everyone not to get too close to her. She did not forget that the smoke smelled like dog shit.

Fortunately, there was wind today, and the wind direction was blowing outside the valley, so Li Qingxiu didn't have to worry about the smoke not reaching Zhao's army.

Li Qingxiu stood at the entrance of Lihua Valley, looking at the blazing fires from a distance, feeling both nervous and expectant in her heart.

The smoke from the fire slowly rose along with the smell of drugged dog shit, drifting in the direction of King Zhao's army.

She took a deep breath and tried to calm down. She knew that the next few minutes would determine the safety of Lihua Valley and the fate of everyone.

When Li Qingxiu turned around, she saw everyone staring nervously out of the valley, so she asked the men to go to the cellar to get their swords and prepare for the fight.

The women were also told to take their babies home and hide there, and not to come out no matter what noise they heard. Only the men can inform them before they can come out.

Li Qingxiu handed Li Qingxiao to Widow Jia and asked Widow Jia to take Qingfeng Li home to hide. If something goes wrong, hide in a relatively hidden cellar.

After hearing Li Qingxiu's instructions, everyone became even more nervous and panicked.

Xiao Chen, who was already so nervous that she was sweating, asked hurriedly: "Qingxiu, aren't you very sure? Why are you letting everyone hide?"

Li Qingxiu comforted and explained: "Second aunt, although I have a certain degree of certainty, anything can happen in the war. I just want everyone to be prepared just in case.

And since you are not here, my uncle and the others can repel King Zhao's army with greater peace of mind. "

Widow Jia, who was pushing Li Qingxiao, really couldn't stand these people. The enemies were almost at the door, and there was still time to chatter.

She said impatiently: "Oh, let's do whatever Qingxiu says. She won't harm us. Is it possible that you have a better way?"

After speaking, Widow Jia ignored everyone's reactions and pushed Li Qingxiao towards the school quickly. When passing by the stream, she did not forget to put Li Qingxiu's washed clothes into the bamboo basket and take them away with her.

Seeing Widow Jia leaving with Li Qingxiao, Xiao Chen didn't say anything anymore, because Widow Jia was right.

After she told Li Erzhuang to be careful, she and Da Chen took their children and walked home.

Li Yuqi and Li Yuhao originally wanted to stay and fight with their father.

But Li Dazhuang and Li Erzhuang both agreed. If anything went wrong between them, these two children would be the backbone of the family.

Seeing this, other women also took their children home with red eyes, because they knew that if the war did not succeed this time, they would be separated forever.

As soon as the women left, the men quickly went to the cellar where the weapons were kept to get their swords. It was perfect to kill King Zhao's army with the sword that belonged to King Zhao.

Widow Jia was the first to arrive at the school. At this time, Li Xuan was teaching the children how to read. Seeing Widow Jia rushing in in a hurry, Li Xuan was also surprised.

After Widow Jia told what happened in Lihua Valley, Li Xuan's face changed drastically and he immediately announced that school was over, but the children could not leave yet and had to wait for their parents to pick them up before they could leave.

The children who were able to come to study were somewhat sensible. When they heard that their father was going to fight King Zhao's army, they were all so frightened that they cried.

Only Qingfeng Li came to Widow Jia obediently with a tight little face and said, "Auntie, let's go."

Widow Jia and Li Xuan were both a little surprised. Other children, even boys older than Qingfeng Li, were already crying with tears and runny noses. How could this boy be so calm?

Originally, Widow Jia was just anxious, but seeing such a strong Qingfeng Li, she couldn't help but feel a sore nose and red eyes.

Widow Jia tried hard to hold back her tears and held Qingfeng Li in her arms. "My child, you don't have to be so strong. My aunt is still here. You can cry if you want."

Qingfeng Li clenched his hands and shook his head, his voice choked with sobs: "I can't cry, I want to set a good example for my sister. My sister also said that a man bleeds but does not shed tears."

"Your sister is right after all." After saying this, Widow Jia gently touched Qingfeng Li's head. "Let's go home first."

At this time, other women also rushed to the school one after another. When they saw the children crying together, they felt sour in their hearts.

Li Xuan was relieved when all the parents came. He asked the parents to take the children home to hide, while he himself had to go back to appease his mother and sister.

On the other side of the valley, Li Qingxiu vaguely saw the team heading towards Lihua Valley. She asked the men to hide on both sides of the mountain wall.
