I thought the poor guys were the big guys

"Then how did you come to the mountain? Where are your parents?"

Xiao Ergou, who was originally smiling, darkened when he heard this question.Squatting next to Lin Ange with his head slightly lowered to look at the red charcoal fire in the stove, his small black hands unconsciously picked the patch on his trousers.

Seeing his appearance, Lin Ange couldn't help feeling a little regretful for a moment.

Such a young child lived in a bandit's den, how did he go up the mountain... This is obviously not a pleasant memory.

Looking at his reddish eye circles, Lin Ange reached out and touched the top of his soft hair, just wanting him not to forcefully answer his own question, but didn't want Xiao Ergou to really open his mouth.

"I was carried up the mountain by the head of the family, my father and mother..." At this point, Xiao Ergou paused for a while, sniffing, and clenched his two small hands on his knees into fists, as if to cheer himself up .

"My parents should have been killed by the people on the mountain. When I woke up, my parents were already dead."

Xiao Ergou was originally from Hede Town, and lived a poor and happy life with his parents.Until one day the bandits from the legendary Elong Mountain suddenly descended from the mountain and began to burn, kill and loot the town.

Xiao Ergou's parents had a chance to escape with him, but they were reluctant to part with the few lambs that were raised at home.When he turned back and wanted to escape with the lamb, he was blocked by bandits who were searching everywhere and came to the house.The little dog was hidden by his mother in the water tank, and only then did he escape the catastrophe.

Because he was young and frightened, the little dog curled up in the water tank and fell asleep.I don't know how long it took before he was carried out of the water tank by the big head covered in blood. From then on, he followed the big head up the mountain.

"Dad and mother said that when those lambs grow up, they will sell them for money so that I can go to school. But when I wake up, my parents are dead, and those lambs are gone."

After speaking, Xiao Ergou's tears dripped down.Xu was afraid that Lin Ange would make a joke, so Xiao Ergou hurriedly wiped his face with his small hands, leaving a few black marks on his face with his dark hands.

Lin Ange looked at Xiao Ergou's appearance, feeling a little sad in his heart, raised his hand and rubbed the top of his head, and said softly, "I'm sorry, brother shouldn't ask you these things."

Hearing this, Xiao Ergou shook his head and smiled at Lin Ange, and said to Lin Ange, "It's okay, it's all over. And I'm doing well now, everyone on the mountain is very kind to me."

Afterwards, Lin Ange took the opportunity to chat with Xiao Ergou for a while.From Ergou's words, Lin Ange learned that there are four masters on the mountain, and there should be quite a few men, women and children who were taken captive to the mountain.

It's just that there are limited houses on the mountain, but Xiao Ergou doesn't know where these people are placed.However, there are only about twenty people who live with the four heads of the household.

Little Ergou got a serious illness because of the fright before, and only the second master on the mountain is proficient in medical science, and he is still young, so he was left here.

According to Xiao Ergou, among the several leaders on the mountain, the second leader is the most gentle and the closest to him.No matter who has a headache on the mountain, the second leader will help diagnose and treat it.

Although the head of the family is unsmiling on weekdays, he still treats people well.

"It's the third master... who often pulls his face and looks scary. No one dares to get close to him." Referring to the young man who just appeared, Xiao Ergou lowered his head and picked his fingers, obviously terrified of him.

"What about the four masters?"

Hearing Lin Ange's question, Xiao Ergou shook his head, pouted his mouth after thinking for a while and said, "Si Dangjia is relatively rare, and everyone has no contact with him."

Lin Ange wanted to ask about the specific situation on the mountain, but someone called Xiao Ergou's name outside the door.

Hearing the other party's barking, Xiao Ergou finally came to his senses that he had been with this big brother whom he met for the first time for a long time.

Thinking that the other party was still sick, Xiao Ergou scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.Standing up, she said to Lin Ange: "The second boss said you need to rest more, Uncle Zhang is calling me, little brother, go and lie down on the bed. I'll bring it to you when it's time for dinner."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Ergou didn't wait for Lin Ange's reaction, and ran out again.

Lin Ange watched the little dog run out, and couldn't help but took a few steps towards the door.

Because the temperature on the mountain is low, the snow accumulated in the past few days has not melted yet.In the entire white snow field, rows of thatched huts occupy as far as the eye can see.Obviously, Xiao Ergou's words were not adulterated.

Just when Lin Ange was about to step out the door and take a closer look at the surrounding environment, he saw the black-faced third-in-command who had come here before suddenly appear not far away.

Lin Ange was taken aback, and then pretended to be calm and glanced at the third master before turning back to the room.

……

That night, seeing the big boss who suddenly appeared in the room, Lin Ange realized that during the past few days in a coma, he lived in the room where the big boss broke the wind.

Thinking about it, I lived with a notorious bandit leader for three days, and I might live with him in the future, my whole hair would explode.

But now people have to bow their heads under the eaves. Even though Lin Ange resisted living in the same room with this bandit leader, he still dared not mention moving out.

Lin Ange's fainting was originally due to lack of food and clothing, and after a few days of recuperation, he returned to normal.

Perhaps he has been staying peacefully for the past few days, and the bandits on the mountain are not as strict as before.

During this period, the second leader visited him several times, seeing that Lin Ange had almost recovered, he didn't say anything more.

On the contrary, Xiao Ergou seems to like to be close to him very much, and can spend most of the day with him.However, this move just happened to be convenient for Lin Ange, who touched the basic situation of Elongshan from the small talk of Ergou.

Knowing that the bandits of Elongshan would not torture and kill the meat tickets tied up the mountain, the heart that had been carrying it was slightly relieved.

Sometimes when the weather is good, I can follow the little dog around the door for a while.Seeing people patrolling nearby from time to time, and the weather is cold now, even if I managed to escape down the mountain, there would be nowhere to go.

But it's strange to say that Lin Ange often sees the three masters on the Dragon Mountain, but he has never seen the fourth master who is rumored to be the dragon.I wanted to ask more, but Xiaoergou was very young and didn't know.

What's even weirder is that since waking up that day, Lin Ange has never seen the group of people who were malicious towards him again.

There are only about twenty people living with the bandit leader on the mountain, and these people are obviously his confidantes.But it was freezing cold, where were the people who were brought up the mountain sent by them?Could it be that they have other residences in the mountains?

If so, why would I be left here?Because you are sick, it is convenient for treatment?But as bandits, are they really so kind?

Although Lin Ange was puzzled, he didn't dare to ask.As for the few common people on the mountain, it's okay to chat with Wei Wei for a few words, but it's impossible to talk in depth.

……

Today is sunny and slightly warmer than the previous two days.

Early in the morning, Xiao Ergou pulled Lin Ange out of the door, and rushed to the open space behind the house with a dustpan and a handful of corn.

Lin Ange also grew up in the countryside since he was a child, and he understood his intentions when he saw the thing that Xiao Ergou was carrying.

Seeing that the dustpan was as high as Xiao Ergou's knees, he was afraid that he would trip over when he was running, so he took the dustpan from him, held the dustpan in one hand, and led Xiao Ergou to the back of the house with the other. A lot of space.

There were no entertainment items on the mountain. During these days, Lin Ange had nothing to do other than take a look at the magnificent scenery around Elong Mountain. He was bored.Seeing that Xiao Ergou had a good time now, he couldn't help but also became interested.

He led the little dog to find a wooden stick about [-] centimeters in the woods and tied it tightly with hemp rope, and then put the wooden stick tied with hemp rope on the edge of the dustpan.Scattered some corn kernels under the dustpan, then pulled the hemp rope with the little dog and found a tree to hide behind.

Xiao Ergou heard that the little brother is the son of a wealthy family in the town, but he didn't expect that such a small game that only country children would play can be played at his fingertips.

Seeing Lin Ange's skillful movements, he couldn't help being filled with admiration for a moment, and grabbed Lin Ange's clothes and squatted behind him expectantly waiting for the bird to fit into the suit.

The two stretched their necks and waited for the bird to enter the trap, but they didn't know that their movements were seen by Pofeng not far away.Seeing the happy faces of the two, I couldn't help but want to step up and take a closer look.Unexpectedly, just as he raised his foot, he saw his third brother walking towards this side with a longbow on his back. It looked like he was going to go hunting in the mountains.

"Big brother."

The grain reserves on the mountain were dwindling day by day. Li Yi originally wanted to take advantage of the good weather to bring people into the mountain to hunt some wild animals, and to save some rations for the big guys.

Following Po Feng's gaze, he saw Lin Ange leading the little dog squatting behind a tree, not knowing what he was doing.

From the moment Li Yi saw Lin Ange, he looked down on this seemingly honest, but turbulent young man.At this time, seeing him leading the little dog toss again, he couldn't help but frowned.

Po Feng responded, and waved his finger at Li Yi, pointing to the direction where the two of them were, and made a silent gesture.

Li Yi wondered what the two of them were doing. He raised his foot and walked forward a few steps gently. When he saw the dustpan not far away, his brows that were already frowning became even tighter.

Seeing that the surname Lin is not too young, why is he still so childish.This kind of little trick can be played so happily, it's only a short period of time, and the well-behaved and sensible little dog has been led astray...

However, he didn't expect that the normally prudent elder brother would be interested in this kind of children's games, so he couldn't help but ask, "What does elder brother see them doing?"

Pofeng turned his head and looked at the two people who were huddled together and didn't know what to say, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, I just think that children should be more lively."

After Pofeng finished speaking, he reached out and patted Li Yi's shoulder, and said, "Be careful when you go up the mountain, and send a signal if you are in danger."

Knowing that he didn't like to be in contact with people, Pofeng wanted to tell him a few more words, but seeing that Li Yi had turned around, he didn't say any more, and watched him carry a longbow and quiver and greeted the others to go up the mountain .

Hearing the noise here, Lin Ange and Xiao Ergou came back to their senses.Seeing Li Yi, the third master, leading a group of people out with a longbow on his back and a quiver, Lin Ange couldn't help but feel his heart tighten.He took Xiao Ergou's hand and asked, "What are they going to do with so many people?"

"It seems that the third family has brought people up the mountain to hunt, and we will have meat to eat tomorrow." Xiao Ergou said excitedly.

After Lin Ange went up the mountain, his three meals a day were yellow noodle buns and sauerkraut soup.At the beginning, Lin Ange thought the food tasted good, but no matter how delicious it was, it couldn't hold up to eating every day.

However, as a hostage, Lin Ange had the self-consciousness of being a hostage, so he definitely didn't dare to make excessive demands.After all, you can eat all you can eat yellow noodle buns, which is much better than when you are hungry at the foot of the mountain.

At this time, hearing that the third family took people up the mountain to hunt, I couldn't help feeling a little itchy, and thinking of the rare wild game that I had never eaten in my previous life was even more exciting.Looking at the backs of the people leaving, I can't help but think in my mind whether the game is delicious roasted or stewed...

"Hey, come in, come in."

In a daze, Lin Ange heard the little dog's excited barking and hurriedly regained his senses.Turning his head to look at the dustpan, there were indeed two small tits pecking at the corn kernels leisurely and walking into the bottom of the dustpan.When the tits reached the depths of the dustpan, Lin Ange immediately pulled the hemp rope in his hand, and the dustpan lost its support and immediately covered the two tits tightly under it.

Seeing that the tit was in the trap, the two excitedly threw away the hemp rope in their hands and ran over.

Seeing that the two of them actually caught the tit, Pofeng couldn't help but follow.However, before he came to the front, he heard Xiao Ergou's exclamation, and saw one of the tits flapping its wings and flying.

Seeing this, Pofeng didn't even think about it, he took out a copper plate from his waist and threw it at the running tit.

And Lin Ange, who got up and wanted to cover the flying tit, saw something flying towards him suddenly, and it was too late for him to dodge.The next moment, a sharp pain came from his forehead.

Lin Ange cried out in surprise when he was hit by the copper coin, and squatted on the ground covering his forehead.Before he could react, he felt a pair of warm hands covering his head.

"How is it? Do you want it?"
