Chapter 19: The Bandits Are Here
Editor: Atlas Studios
Lin Yue could not handle Stinky alone. Bai Wutong still had to prevent Stinky from having a fever again, so she and Chu Tianbao shared a room. Lin Yue stayed in a room alone.
After a long day, Bai Wutong was clearly not in a good state of mind.
Chu Tianbao said with heartache, "Wife, you should rest. I'll take care of Stinky."
Bai Wutong rubbed her throbbing temples. "Can you do it?"
Chu Tianbao hesitated for a moment and promised, "I can do it!"
Bai Wutong forced a smile. "You can change his diaper?"
Chu Tianbao said, "I can!" Seeing that Bai Wutong didn't believe him, he hurriedly said, "I learned it when my wife was changing him. Tianbao can definitely change Stinky's diapers."
His face was filled with confidence. Coupled with his ferocious bandit look, he looked a little comical and cute.
Bai Wutong couldn't bear to dampen his enthusiasm to lighten her burden. "Alright, then change him when he wakes up." Stinky would definitely cry when she woke up. It was impossible for her not to wake up. At most, she would watch Chu Tianbao change.
Chu Tianbao immediately smiled, his deep eyes curved into crescents.
Bai Wutong suddenly remembered the first time she had met him.
What a noble and cold immortal appearance, but now, he had been tortured to such a state.
She couldn't help but curve her lips as she reached for Chu Tianbao's beard. "It's good to put it on like this."
Chu Tianbao's eyes lit up. He lay beside her pillow like a puppy and asked happily, "Really? My wife likes me like this?" He had thought it was very ugly.
Bai Wutong closed her eyes to avoid looking into his sparkling eyes. "Yes, I do." She couldn't help but laugh. "It suits you especially."
His wife liked him like this. Chu Tianbao stroked his beard and immediately decided, "I won't pull it again."
Bai Wutong closed her eyes and teased, "Really?"
Chu Tianbao approached the tip of Bai Wutong's nose and said seriously, "Yes, this way, my wife will like me forever."
Bai Wutong suddenly opened her eyes and saw Chu Tianbao's huge bandit face.
He beamed at her, his dark, deep-set eyes seeming to swirl with suction.
Bai Wutong's heart skipped a beat. She immediately closed her eyes and pushed him to the side. She said in a deep voice, "Sleep, don't talk anymore!" Whenever he spoke, it was all nonsense. She didn't know if he had learned it in the past.
"Oh ~" Chu Tianbao == lay down obediently and lifted the corner of the blanket for Bai Wutong.
But Bai Wutong opened her eyes again after he lay down.
Could Chu Tianbao have married and had children before?
Given his age, it was extremely likely.
Bai Wutong turned to look at him and turned over again.
What was the point of thinking so much? They weren't really husband and wife.
However, there was an inexplicable frustration that could not be dispelled.
The rainy night was a little damp and noisy.
Bai Wutong tossed and turned. Suddenly, she heard the dogs barking crazily.
She immediately sat up and put on her coat.
This was followed by a confused chorus of voices.
Stinky was woken up. Chu Tianbao hurriedly hugged him and patted him. "Stinky, don't cry. Stinky, don't cry. Stinky is the most handsome in the world…"
Not long after, Lin Yue pushed the door open and entered.
He frowned. "The bandits are here. Let's get out of here."
To avoid causing trouble again, Bai Wutong hurriedly packed her things.
When they came out of the room, Village Chief Zhao saw them and hurriedly said, "Hurry up and hide. The bandits kill without batting an eyelid!"
After saying that, he got Madam Yang to bring them to the cellar where they could hide.
Madam Yang pulled him back and asked in panic, "Old man, where are you going?"
Village Chief Zhao looked determined. "I'm going to help San'er."
If the bandits entered the village, it would be over.
Village Chief Zhao's two sons followed behind him, one with a sickle and another with a kitchen knife.
"Father, let us go too!"
Their wives and children looked at them in tears.
Village Chief Zhao scolded, "Nonsense, hurry up and hide in there with your wives and children. Your third brother is extremely strong. He will definitely be fine!"
The two brothers looked at their wives and children, then at their old father with gray temples. They looked at each other and the eldest brother made up his mind. "Second Brother, stay. I'll go with Father."
"Big Brother!"
"Listen to me!"
Village Chief Zhao sighed and rushed out with the hoe. Zhao Yuan hurriedly followed.
The remaining people all looked sad.
Madam Yang wiped her tears and said to Bai Wutong, "Come with us."
Bai Wutong was a little moved when Village Chief Zhao asked them to hide in the cellar and bring his son to resist the bandits.
Bai Wutong shook her head. "We're leaving, you'd also better leave now. If you can get out of the farm from elsewhere, the bandits can naturally come in from elsewhere. Hiding in this place is not a good idea." If they were discovered, they would be wiped out.
They could make a break through from the fight, but these weak people might not.
Madam Yang subconsciously shook her head. They had lived here for generations and had survived all sorts of storms.
As long as San'er could lead everyone to resist the bandits, they would definitely be able to survive if they saved up on food.
As long as this winter passed, next year would be better.
Why bother? They would be reduced to refugees, homeless, and at risk of being killed and robbed at any time.
Madam Yang's gaze was firm. "We have to wait for the child's father to return. If you want to leave, climb over the back mountain. You should be able to avoid the bandits."
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard the sound of battle breaking out.
The bandits were actually pouring in from all directions.
They captured the villagers and killed those who resisted. Those who did not dare to resist were tied up with ropes and forced to reveal where the food and silver were hidden.
There were not many bandits that Zhao Pengfei led his men to resist.
By the time they reacted, many people in the village had been captured.
Village Chief Zhao and Zhao Yuan were among them.
Zhao Yuan resisted and was hit by the bandit's club, falling to the ground.
"Son!"
The bandit leader grabbed the angry Village Chief Zhao and threatened Zhao Pengfei, who was holding a shovel, "If you know what's good for you, kneel down and make me happy. It's not impossible for me to spare your lives."
Village Chief Zhao shouted, "San'er, run! Don't care about us!"
The bandit leader immediately punched Village Chief Zhao and said happily, "Run then! Anyway, your little wives are ours."
The bandits found the hidden women and children from the villagers' houses.
The cries of the women and children echoed in the night sky. The eyes of this group of men immediately turned red. They picked up their weapons and were about to fight the bandits to the death.
The bandits immediately placed their weapons on the villagers' necks and chuckled. "If you don't want them to die immediately, throw away the weapons in your hands and kowtow to our leader. Otherwise, we'll kill them now."
The farm was basically filled with their relatives. How could Zhao Pengfei and the other youths bear to see them die? They wished they could tear the bandits into pieces, but they had no choice but to submit.
The unyielding men all knelt down.
The bandit leader's face was filled with excitement as he stared at Zhao Pengfei, who was gritting his teeth. "Quickly kowtow! Make it louder! Then call me father!"
Zhao Pengfei could not produce a sound for a long time. His eyes were bloodshot. The bandit leader pointed his knife at his head and said with a sinister gaze, "You killed so many of my brothers. Aren't you proud of yourself?" If not for Zhao Pengfei, they would have long captured the farm.
Village Chief Zhao lay on the ground and looked up. He said in fear, "San'er, leave quickly!!!"
The young men clenched their fists. Their angry chests shook.
