"Today's Eighteen Villages are not the Eighteen Villages of the past. They have long lost their glory. There are only eight cottages left in the Eighteen Villages, and there are only four cottages in Qishan.

When the four cottages were first established, their strengths were almost the same. Everyone was on an equal footing. The territory of Qishan was divided equally among the four families, and everyone supported each other. Over the years, the gap has become wider and wider. Among the four cottages, we are the only one in Heisha Village.

The smallest strength.

The other three companies have long disliked our Heisha village, and secretly want to destroy our village, divide our territory, and strengthen the village.

Every time the four families get together, they not only sneer at our Heisha village, but don’t even want to show off. If it weren’t for the pressure from above, there would have been no Heisha village in Qishan."

The headmaster sighed quietly.

The news he heard today was more shocking than the last. The third master was stunned and unable to recover. After digesting the news, a cold air rushed up from the soles of his feet, making his scalp numb.

"Brother, are you saying that Guigu Village and the others want to destroy our Heisha Village? Stop joking." The third master's voice was dry, but he still couldn't believe this fact?

The eldest boss looked at him calmly, "I can joke about this kind of thing. There has long been no peace between the four families. Guigu Village and Wsha Village have been fighting secretly for many years to compete for the position of the boss of Qishan. Huangquan Village

I want to take advantage of the oriole behind, but our Heisha village is the only one to survive in the cracks."

"The people above won't agree?!" The third master himself was not sure of what he said.

"As long as the superiors receive a lot of things, it doesn't matter if you have three villages or four villages, one more or one less, it will have no impact on them. Even if the superiors disagree, they can't take action on the surface, but secretly they can weaken the strength of our village.

We also have no evidence that they did it.

The second brother and the others haven't come back for so many days, and no news has been sent back, so I'm worried that someone is plotting against him. If something happens to the second brother and the others, our Heisha stronghold will be in danger. Third child, you have many evil ideas, so it's time to get started.

You take your brother to have a look, so that if something goes wrong, we can make preparations in advance."

The third boss nodded in confusion and returned to his room to think carefully. Is the boss testing his loyalty? Or is it really like what the boss said, that the village has reached a moment of life and death?

If it was the latter... The third master immediately ordered dozens of brothers to go down the mountain to investigate the situation. The mountain stronghold was really going to be destroyed, so he had to make preparations in advance.

………………

He Shui and the others trained in the yamen every day, which made them panic, and they ate rice every meal, which made them terrified!

They are here to suppress bandits, not to enjoy themselves.

"He Laoer, we've been here for a few days and there's been no movement at all from the Yamen. Why don't you go find out when we're going to suppress the bandits?"

The villagers couldn't stand looking at the heartless He Shui. After dark, several village representatives came to look for He Shui.

"Don't pry around about the yamen affairs. We will know it when we are supposed to know it. Don't worry, the county magistrate is well aware of the matter of suppressing bandits. You have been training for a day, aren't you tired? Okay, let's do what we have to do.

Go ahead!"

He Shui didn't notice the anxious mood of the brothers at all, and waved his hand to indicate that the brothers could leave.

The villagers looked at He Shui who looked like a dead pig on the stall, sighed helplessly and left.

"Don't be burdened. Du Zhubo said that the food payment will be deducted from the salary. You can talk to the brothers."

He Shui suddenly remembered this matter, roared again, lay down for a while and got up again, and went to find the county magistrate to inquire about the situation. To be honest, he was also panicking.

Except for the people from Dama Village who are common people, everyone in the yamen is all fast-moving yamen servants.

………………

The front office, Qingyuntian Duoliang, Mad Wolf Black Bear, Du Chun'an and others gathered together to discuss matters. The horse owner Bo was not here, so they did not have to find a place to hide from him to discuss matters, which was very convenient.

"No news yet?" Qingyun lay lazily in the chair, his long legs crossed on the table, and the toes of his shoes kept shaking.

At first, Du Chun'an couldn't get used to the county magistrate's careless behavior. It was too damaging to his image. He reminded him several times, but Qingyun promised to change it and keep doing the same thing next time.

Du Chun'an was used to it from his initial dislike. Anyway, the county magistrate can still put on a show when outsiders are around.

"No," Crazy Wolf shook his head.

"That's strange. Aren't there still a few villages that haven't paid food? Why haven't the bandits made any move?" Qingyun touched his chin, confused.

"Did the bandits notice something?" Qingyun glanced at the four of them sideways, his eyes a bit dangerous.

"Impossible," Black Bear immediately retorted, "Brothers have been keeping an eye on the county town. There is nothing unusual here in the county town. Not even a fly has flown out."

"The brothers in the village are watching the news, but there is no movement. Do whatever you need to do. The food has been dried and packaged. We are just waiting for the food to be delivered." Crazy Wolf said.

That’s strange!

The horse owner mentioned in vain that not long after the grain was harvested, the bandits would notify the village to prepare grain for delivery at any time.

Why is the movement so slow this time? Could it be that the bandits are fighting among themselves?

"Has anything big happened in Qishan recently?" Qingyun asked after thinking about it for a while.

"No," Crazy Wolf thought about it and shook his head. The whole mountain was calm. Except for the bandits they killed when they came back, nothing happened.

As Qingyun asked more and more questions, Crazy Black Bear Tian Duoliang and the other two people became nervous and stared at him closely, fearing that he would suddenly give up his job.

Fortunately, no.

Qingyun clicked his tongue, nothing happened, the bandits shouldn't have refused to collect the grain! Out of the corner of his eye, he accidentally glanced at He Shui walking in.

"What's wrong with coming here so late?" Qingyun asked.

He Shui came in and glanced around. The county magistrate's right and left men were all there, guessing whether they were talking about official business? Just as he was thinking about whether he should withdraw and come back later, he heard the county magistrate asking him.

Du Chun'an and the four of them also looked at him.

He Shui scratched his head, glanced at Lord Du and Bo and others again, and asked: "Sir, when are we going to suppress the bandits? Brothers stay in the Yamen and live and eat for free, and they are always uneasy!"

The moment He Shui came in, Qingyun put down his legs and smiled when he heard what he said, "The sharpening of the sword will not delay the chopping of firewood. You tell them that this matter cannot be rushed. Those who are not qualified in training cannot go. Let them train well."

"

She was also anxious. The bandits were silent. What could she do?

"Oh! I'm going back then." After that, He Shui went back immediately.

"If there is no news tomorrow, take out the dry food that Aunt Li made and eat it! If you don't eat it, it will go bad." Qingyun thought for a while and said suddenly.

"have eaten?"
