In the back hill of Niujia Village, Ye Zheng and other villagers stood in front of Chen Gu's grave, watching with their own eyes the big tiger and the little tiger cutting off the head of this evil-doing murderer with their own eyes, and worshiping Chen Gu's spirit in heaven.
After accompanying the two brothers who had just lost their mother and placing a few sticks of incense in front of the grave, everyone returned to Niujia Village again.
Ye Zheng and the other villagers found some barely edible food in the burned-to-ruins house. After eating randomly, everyone gathered together and began to discuss what to do in the future.
Now that they have killed the guard chief and several guards of the Qingshan Town Guard Station, the crime of beheading for rebellion and conspiracy has been completely implemented. It will not be long before the Qingshan Town Yamen will report the matter to the superior county government.
At that time, the government will definitely send heavy troops to kill them. Therefore, now the entire villagers of Niujia Village have no way to retreat. If they want to survive, they must flee. But among the more than 70 people in Niujia Village, all the old, young, women, and children
Yes, the day of escape can be avoided for a while, but it cannot be avoided forever, because there are so many people in Niujia Village and the target is too obvious, which will attract the attention of the government sooner or later.
Therefore, everyone is confused and worried now, not knowing what to do in the future.
Just when everyone was worried and at a loss, one person stood up. This person was Niu Sanyan's eldest brother Niu Tiezhu. He said: "This time we were framed by the government of Qingshan Town. Fortunately, we got Ye
The little brother saved us and survived. His ability is obvious to everyone. Since we can't make up our minds now, why don't we let him come up with a way for everyone and give us a clear path."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone in Niujia Village agreed and turned their attention to Ye Zheng, hoping that he could give everyone an idea so that everyone could get out of the current predicament.
Facing everyone's sincere eyes, Ye Zheng took a deep breath and said what he had been brewing in his heart for a long time. "First of all, I have to thank everyone for their trust in me. As an outsider, I am not qualified to give anything to Niu.
The folks in my village are the ones who give advice and make suggestions, but since everyone thinks so highly of me, I will reluctantly give you some advice."
Seeing Ye Zheng being so polite, everyone said, "Brother Ye, what are you talking about? The reason why all of us in Niujia Village are able to sit here and talk safely is because of your rescue."
, In our hearts, we have never considered you, Brother Ye, as an outsider. If you have anything to say or any ideas, just say it, and we will follow your lead."
"Yes, yes, little brother Ye, you are so capable, you will definitely come up with a complete solution for our village and lead everyone out of the predicament."
"Brother Ye, please stop inking. If you have any good ideas, just tell me. Everyone will listen to you..."
Ye Zheng didn't expect that he had such a great influence in their hearts. He stopped being polite and coughed twice, saying: "I believe everyone knows our current situation. We have killed people from the government. At this moment, we have already
It is the imperial court who committed the crime. It is already impossible to live a peaceful and ordinary life in the future. As soon as the arrest notice from the government comes out in a few days, there will no longer be room for us in the entire Qingshan Town and even Qingjiang County.
So, if we want to survive, we have to take a road we don’t want to take.”
After hearing what Ye Zheng said, the villagers suddenly felt sad. Everyone lowered their heads and said nothing, and the atmosphere became very silent for a while.
Among the people in Niujia Village, several people noticed Ye Zheng's strangeness and felt that there was something in his words. At this time, Niu Sanyan pondered slightly for a moment and asked: "Brother Ye, I don't know what you are talking about."
What is the road?”
Ye Zheng raised his brows slightly and said in a deep voice: "Since the government is trying to frame us up out of nothing to collude with the mountain bandits to commit rebellion, then we will really go all out this time and simply go and occupy the mountain to be king, and become a mountain that robs the rich and gives to the poor.
Forget it, otherwise, with so many people in Niujia Village, old and young, it would be very difficult for us to survive by fleeing."
Ye Zheng's words were like a thunderbolt from the blue. Everyone was shocked and dumbfounded. After a while, the villagers in Niujia Village slowly came to their senses. Suddenly, the expressions on everyone's faces were very complicated.
There was hesitation and fear, all kinds of expressions mixed together.
Seeing the shocked expressions on all of them, Ye Zheng couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and said to himself: "It seems that I was too naive. I originally thought that as soon as I made this suggestion, a lot of people would agree with it.
After all, these villagers have been persecuted by the government, so how can they have a rebellious mentality towards the corrupt government, but now it seems that everything is too simple as they think."
Thinking of this, Ye Zheng couldn't help but feel quite depressed. At that moment, he was ready to find an excuse, saying that what he just said was a joke, and then he refused and said that he couldn't think of a good way, and let the villagers of Niujia Village find a way on their own. At the same time,
, Ye Zheng also secretly planned to find an opportunity to leave with Big Tiger and Little Tiger later. After all, with so many people together, there is a high chance of being tracked and investigated by the government. It is better to separate from them earlier and lead the two of them.
The brothers are wandering around, but he doesn't believe that he can't make a name for himself with the guns in his hands.
Just when Ye Zheng was still making plans for his future, several people from Niujia Village came to him. Those people were Niu Sanyan and his eldest brother Niu Tiezhu, as well as several very famous people from Niujia Village.
Prestige hunter.
At this time, there was a hunter named Niu Dafu. He was about fifty years old, tall and strong. He was the highest seniority in Niujia Village. Generally, he would be consulted on any major issues in the village. Niu Dafu came to Ye Zheng's house
In front of him, there was a slight silence for a moment, and he said: "Brother Ye, we just discussed it and think what you said makes sense. Anyway, we are all prisoners of war now, and there is no longer a place for our Niujia Village to live in the world, so why not
As you said, if you occupy the mountain and become the king, forget about being a lawless bandit."
As soon as he finished speaking, several other hunters and Niu Sanyan also said: "Yes, since the government won't let us go, fleeing with so many old, young, women and children will be a dead end sooner or later. From now on, all of us will follow you.
Forget about the bandits, Brother Ye, why are you so capable? You can even kill Jiang Tieba easily. I believe that even if there are officers and soldiers coming to surround us in the future, you will have a way to deal with them, everyone agrees, right?"
Hearing what they said, the young people in Niujia Village were all excited and excitedly echoed loudly: "Yes, Brother Ye has the ability, let's follow him to become bandits..."
"Follow Brother Ye, follow Brother Ye!..."
Ye Zheng originally thought that everyone would not agree to follow him to become a bandit, but he did not expect that things would develop like this. Suddenly, he was overjoyed and hurriedly waved his hands and said loudly: "Don't worry about becoming a bandit.
Let’s sit down and discuss it carefully to see how this matter should be carried out.”
After hearing what he said, everyone gradually became quiet, so everyone sat together and began to discuss their future banditry career.
