Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

"Awan, I suddenly remembered something."

In the carriage compartment, Cheng Daniu suddenly spoke.

Cheng Wan turned to look at Cheng Daniu.

Cheng Wan and Cheng Daniu were wounded members of the Cheng family. They were ordered by Mrs. Lin to stay in the carriage and rest. They were not allowed to get out of the car and walk.

Cheng Daniu looked a little weird and said: "When I was killing a bandit in a corner, he was hit in the thigh by me. He couldn't run away, so he begged me for mercy. He said that there was a lot of food and gold and silver in their bandit's village. As long as I let him go, he will tell me where their stronghold is."

Cheng Wan became interested. She adjusted her sitting position and asked, "What next?"

"I couldn't care less about that at the time, and without saying a word I stabbed him again. He was lucky enough to be alive, and he was not dead yet. He spoke very fast, as if his butt was on fire, and said that their village was about a mile to the northeast. It was near a village 70 kilometers away, and there were very few people left in the village, only ten. He said he would tell me all this and only asked me to spare his life."

Cheng Wan paused and asked, "Northeast?"

Cheng Daniu nodded, "Northeast."

Cheng Wan and Cheng Daniu looked at each other, wasn't that the direction they were going to Liangzhou?

However, Cheng Wan frowned slightly and asked with some confusion: "Seventy kilometers away, do these bandits want to go so far to rob?"

Cheng Daniu pondered and guessed: "Maybe there are few people going to Liangzhou? There are not many people coming and going near their village? Or maybe the bandit is just telling me nonsense and wants to coax me to spare his life."

Cheng Wan nodded, it was not impossible.

"We'll see then. Anyway, no matter what, we are going to the northeast. If we really encounter a bandit village, we will go and rob them. If we don't encounter them, forget it."

After Cheng Wan finished speaking, he took out his money bag and started counting the coins.

This time when the bandits attacked, not only did everyone lose many of their relatives, but many of their belongings were also destroyed due to the chaos at that time.

Including the bandit leaders, there were a total of sixty-seven bandits, and Cheng Wan killed thirty-four of them himself.

Cheng Wan touched three of these sixty-seven corpses.

As for the money and valuables obtained from the other thirty-one corpses, it was Village Chief Jia's second son who personally delivered them to Cheng Wan.

Whoever killed the bandits or how many bandits he killed was watched by everyone, so there was no way he could fake it.

Especially the bandits who died in Cheng Wan's hands basically had only one deep and sharp stab wound on their body, which was particularly easy to identify.

The others were grateful for Cheng Wan's life-saving grace, and they did not dare to covet things that belonged to Cheng Wan.

Therefore, not a single copper penny was missing from Cheng Wan's money.

Except for Cheng Wan, the other men each claimed the bodies of the bandits they had killed and also carried out body touching activities.

If a bandit is killed by more than one person, then the money from the bandit will be divided among several people.

Negotiate how much or how little you want.

Those with better luck can get one or two taels of silver.

Those who are unlucky only get a dozen or twenty copper coins.

Cheng Wan was able to find three or four taels of silver from each of the bandit leader's two men. That was because the two bandits were the bandit leader's cronies, the closest ones.

They are naturally wealthier than ordinary bandits.

When the second son of Village Chief Jia brought money to Cheng Wan, Cheng Wan felt very relieved to receive it.

There is nothing to be embarrassed about, she deserves this.

She has already helped everyone a lot, so we can’t let her share money with everyone anymore.

Cheng Wan said that she was not that kind yet.

After counting, Cheng Wan nodded with satisfaction. There were a total of one hundred and sixty-nine taels of silver and fifty-six copper plates.

Besides money, Cheng Wan's biggest gain from killing the bandits this time was actually four horses.

There were seven bandits on horseback, all of whom were killed by Cheng Wan.

Unfortunately, two of the seven horses ran away and one died, leaving only four.

Of course, the quality of these four horses is not very good, and the one ridden by the bandit leader is slightly better.

After all, there is a big difference between military horses and ordinary horses.

However, no matter how ordinary it is, it is still a horse.

It is a horse that can ride and pull a cart.

Four horses, plus the two horses and a mule that the Cheng family already owned.

Good guy, Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Lin are going behind the backs of the villagers, and they are going to laugh out loud.

They no longer secretly thought about the horse Cheng Wan gave to Mrs. Song's house.

As for the horse that was stabbed in the vital part by Cheng Wan and died.

Cheng Wan didn't waste any time and asked the butcher in the village to kill the meat directly, and distributed some of the meat to each family in Jiajia Village.

Other families in Jiajia Village were already grateful to Cheng Wan, and now they kept saying thank you to the Cheng family.

After all, even when I was in the village, not everyone could afford meat.

As for the jealous Cheng family, they got dozens of taels of silver and four horses?

Of course he is jealous.

Who can not be jealous?

This is human nature.

Not only were they jealous of the Cheng family's horses, they were also jealous of all the Cheng family members except Cheng Wan.

How much smoke did our ancestors take?

To have such a capable junior.

What was the life of the Cheng family like in the past? Who in the village could look up to the Cheng family?

Look at now.

People in the village who have a little bit of culture think there is a saying that is particularly suitable for the Cheng family.

When one person attains the Tao, the chicken and the dog ascend to heaven.

But jealousy is jealousy, and jealousy is jealousy.

This did not affect their sincere gratitude to Cheng Wan.

They would not do anything bad to Cheng Wan or the Cheng family.

Again.

One is to express gratitude to Cheng Wan for his great kindness, and the other is to not dare.

The rest of the journey went smoothly except for meeting many new refugees.

When the sky darkened, everyone stopped.

Except for the little kid, the adults in the team haven't eaten anything since last night.

So hungry.

What I have come this far has been supported by the fear of not wanting to be left behind.

"Quickly, take down the cooking stuff first."

"Daping, Erping, Sanxiong, you three hurry up and collect firewood."

"Xiaoyu, take Sanping and the others to look for wild vegetables."

"Boss, my wife, quickly cut off the horse meat and wash it. Then chop the meat into small pieces and make two bowls of broth for Daniel and Awan."

"Second daughter-in-law, go and get some rice to make rice soup. Get some more, and everyone will have a bowl of it. It will be a relief."

"Myolie, make some noodles."

Mrs. Lin couldn't care less about following the crowd today. She just wanted her eldest son and granddaughter to eat something good, and let the rest of the family eat something good too.

If you want to eat well, you have to work, so Mrs. Lin made clear arrangements for everyone in the family.

The task given to Cheng Wan and Cheng Daniu was to do nothing, preferably not to move at all.

Just rest and rest.

Cheng Wan saw that everyone was busy and asked Cheng Daniu casually: "Dad, when did Deng Xiong become the third bear?"

"I don't know. It was Deng Xiong last night. We don't know what the fuss is about."
