Chapter 498: There Are Bandits

dead of night

In Xu Qing's ears, he could only hear the breathing sound of sleeping on his shoulder, and the sound of the firewood burning in the campfire. rub.

Xu Qing put down the wooden stick that poked the bonfire, took out a handkerchief, and wiped the saliva from the corner of the little girl's mouth.

At this moment, Xiao Ruxue stretched out her small hands and rubbed Own's ears, and reluctantly opened her eyes and woke up. When she felt her head resting on a strong shoulder, she regretted waking up.

Feeling Xiao Ruxue's movement, Xu Qing let Xiao Ruxue go, lowered her head slightly, looked at her and said, "Are you awake?"

Xiao Ruxue said: "There was a worm in my ear, it made my ear itch so much, I took it off."

Saying that, Xiao Ruxue lowered her head and looked at her hands, the drowsiness that was still a little bit of drowsiness suddenly disappeared without a trace, her whole body shot up in an instant, she quickly threw her hands away, and shouted loudly: "Ah! Spiders! Spiders!"

Xu Qing was not scared by the spider, but was startled by Xiao Ruxue's voice, and instinctively bounced up. After hearing what Xiao Ruxue said clearly, Xu Qing breathed a sigh of relief.

He was almost scared to death by Xiao Ruxue, it was just a spider, and he thought it was such a big deal.

After throwing out the little spider in his hand that was barely covered by half a fingernail, Xiao Ruxue quickly burrowed into Xu Qing's arms, her little head kept pressing against Xu Qing's chest, and she kept saying, "" Xu Qing, Xu Qing! Spider, spider!"

Xu Qing patted Xiao Ruxue's back, and comforted: "Okay, okay, the spider just now has been thrown away by you, and it won't come again."

Xiao Ruxue raised her head from Xu Qing's arms, turned her small head and looked around: "Really?"

Xu Qing looked down at Xiao Ruxue, who was close at hand, and said, "So you're afraid of spiders?"

Xiao Ruxue said in shock, "I... I'm afraid of those with many feet."

hillside

All the bandits were silently waiting for the opportunity. Since the imperial court suddenly sent troops all the way to Fengzhou to suppress the bandits more than two months ago, there were fewer and fewer bandits who dared to gather on this mountain.

Now it is too much to gather twenty or thirty people like them.

But their side is not bad, the government marched quickly and just hastily wiped out the bandits and bandits.

I heard that the bandits on Funiu Mountain released the flag of "Walking for Heaven" in order to rebel. In the end, the top of the mountain was almost flattened by the officers and soldiers. It was really miserable.

All the bandits looked down, watching the movement of the caravan down the hillside.

In an open place, several bonfires light up the surroundings slightly. The owner of the caravan and some guards have already got into their tents to rest and wait for their rotation.

There were a few caravan guards standing outside the convoy guarding the surroundings, but these guards were not in a good state of mind, and some of them were yawning, and they looked extremely lazy.

At this moment, the leader of the guards came over and patted the lazy guards a few times: "See what you look like one by one? If something happens, will you have time to react?"

A guard yawned and said: "Boss, you are too nervous. The bandits and strong men in this area were wiped out by the army sent by the imperial court two months ago. How can there be any people on this road?" What happened?"

Another guard also echoed: "That's right, how many times have we slept on the road this way, and which time was it not just worrying about it? Let alone bandits and bandits, we can't even see a bird's feather."

The guard commander said solemnly: "Don't take it lightly. I have been a caravan guard for many years, and I have to be vigilant at all times. Often when you think the safest time is when danger comes quietly!"

The guard said: "Yes, we all know, boss, go back to sleep quickly."

The boss had said these words many times before they set off, and they could almost hear the cocoon in their ears, but after so many days, where is the danger?

In a tent, a middle-aged man looked at the handsome woman sitting across from him, and said, "Look at you, you have to follow your father to walk this dart, have you suffered?"

The delicate woman said: "That's better than being bored at home every day."

The middle-aged man smiled and said: "You just have to be stubborn, a young lady who has no strength to restrain a chicken, and her ten fingers do not touch the spring water, has just left home not long ago, and when there is a girl like you in the back who will suffer, how can you be a father? I can agree with you to follow, that's enough, it's getting late, go back to your tent and rest, you have to hurry tomorrow."

The delicate woman nodded, stood up and was about to go to sleep, when suddenly there was a loud noise outside.

The middle-aged man frowned, stood up and opened the curtain of the tent, and said displeasedly, "It's so late, don't sleep well, you..."

Seeing the scene outside, the middle-aged man was suddenly speechless. Dozens of bandits clearly rushed down from that short hill, and the few lazy guards on duty had already been cut down by them.

The middle-aged man pulled the delicate woman over and said in a panic, "Hurry up, some bandits are coming down the mountain, run!"

The handsome woman's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. Bandits and bandits, in her eyes, such thieves have the inherent perception that they do everything from burning, killing, and looting.

While talking, a bandit noticed the situation here, looked at the handsome woman, and immediately salivated: "There are beauties here too! Come here, the uncle wants you to be happy and happy."

As he said that, the bandit raised his foot and walked towards this side, holding a gleaming long knife in his hand.

The middle-aged man protected his daughter behind him, but the bandit was getting closer and closer to them. Suddenly, the middle-aged man stepped forward and grabbed the bandit's steel knife, wanting to snatch it away.

The bandit was obviously taken aback, but he didn't expect him to dare to resist, and threatened, "You don't want to live, old man! Damn, you're quite strong."

The middle-aged man shouted: "What are you still doing? Run!"

That handsome woman was also frightened by this scene: "No...no..."

The middle-aged man said again: "There are too many of them! Do you want Dad to die in vain? Go!"

campfire

Xu Qing also didn't expect that Princess Yongle, who was not afraid of anything, was afraid of spiders, and now she was holding Own's arm tightly, looking around vigilantly.

She just threw the spider out, but didn't kill it.

Princess Yongle is more afraid of the sudden disappearance of the spider than the spider in front of her eyes...

And now, it's gone...

Xiao Ruxue grabbed Xu Qing's arm and hid behind him, her big eyes searched the surroundings, carefully looking for the missing spider.

At this moment, Xu Qing suddenly saw a Daoist figure running over in front of him, apparently it was a woman.

When the woman saw Xu Qing and Xiao Ruxue, she shouted: "Friends in front, hurry... run! There... there are bandits coming down the mountain over there!"

The woman's face was stained with tears, and her tone was even more crying.

Xiao Ruxue, who was afraid of spiders at first, heard the woman's words, immediately raised her head to look at Xu Qing, and stretched out her small hand to point in the woman's direction, her eyes full of emotion and excitement: "Xu Qing Xu Qing! Did you hear that? There are bandits! There are bandits over there!"
