Mr. Xie came here to visit Chu Qing. Mr. Xie knew what happened. He also knew about the three horses and six knives. Now he wanted to ask Chu Qing for his opinion.

"Sir, the situation was urgent at that time. As a woman, my words are not enough to gain trust, so I had to pretend to use your name." Chu Qing apologized to Mr. Xie.

"No, you did a great job, it couldn't be better. It's rare that you can quickly seize the common interests of the three villages at such a juncture." Mr. Xie praised.

That's natural. If you tell these villagers that there are not many bandits and it's okay to die, no one will listen. The bandits have knives in their hands, which are weapons. What the villagers have are farm tools. Will the bandits die?

People take care of it, but when the villagers die, the backbone of the family is gone, and the family is finished.

So it is better to talk about the benefits that can be obtained, so that the village chiefs will be tempted first, and then mobilize the masses. The herd mentality will make the villagers flock to them. Otherwise, they can only run home and lock the door like the villagers in this village, and pray to God for mercy.

Don't let the bandits in.

"Then what do you think of these horses?" Mr. Xie asked.

“Mr.

Mr. Xie nodded. He understood what Chu Qing was thinking. He was a person who didn't like trouble and didn't want to expose too much.

"When I returned to the village, I saw that many villagers were injured and the children were very frightened. So I will take another day off tomorrow so that everyone can take a good rest," said Mr. Xie.

"Did the village suffer a lot of damage?" Chu Qing asked.

"Just those who destroyed some pots and pans, and all the money and property were snatched back. There was no big loss. No women were raped. The two villages next door arrived in time. You can rest assured." Mr. Xie saw Chu Qing being so concerned.

The villagers were very moved.

I feel at ease, I feel at ease! I have no control over what happens to them. I have done everything I can do, and I can't control the rest. Chu Qing thought to herself.

"But, the village chiefs of several villages have said that this matter needs to be explained to everyone. This time it is a bandit, but next time it may not be the same thing. Our villages must unite. So, tomorrow's breakfast

Later, we all go to the threshing floor of our village and discuss this matter together. You and Xiaobao can come too then." Mr. Xie explained.

"Okay." Chu Qing agreed.

Because I slept all afternoon, I feel energetic now. But my whole body is more sore. The swelling has become more swollen, and my neck is thicker. Chu Qing thought about exercising. In this world, how can I be as good as I am?

The world is safe, but lives may be in danger at any time.

"We have to exercise." Chu Qing said to Xiaobao, "Otherwise, you see, my whole body is so sore that I can hardly lift my arms. If I exercise for a long time and have more muscles, I will definitely not be like this."

Because Xiaobao responded to Chu Qing more and more often, Chu Qing always found something to say to him.

Xiaobao also responded this time. He nodded, and then raised his little arm to show off his muscles. Chu Qing laughed and pinched Xiaobao's arm, "Yes, exercise to make this little meat harder."

Stronger." He also raised his arms to show off his muscles, "We both exercised so that our arms are as thick as our legs!"

Eggs, flour, water, chopped green onions, salted peppercorns, a little more oil, spread out a few egg pancakes, rolled up some cold vegetables, and had egg drop soup. After a warm meal, the two of them continued to sleep.

The more you sleep, the better your recovery will be.

the next morning.

In the morning, every family in the village got up early, with roosters crowing, dogs barking, and cooking smoke curling up. It was much noisier than usual. After breakfast, people walked to the threshing floor one after another. Everyone knew that there would be a collective meeting this morning.

Chu Qing went out later, wanting to fall behind the villagers, and not wanting to interact too much with them, as it would be troublesome. But there were too many people, not counting those from his own village, but also from two other villages. The injured people in this village were all bandaged.

When we got up, some had their heads wrapped, and some were holding on to sticks.

Wu Dalang's arms were tightly wrapped, and he supported Village Chief Wu as he walked slowly behind. Zhang Mingyu pushed a trolley over and invited Village Chief Wu to sit on it. Wu Dalang was very grateful.

Mr. Xie and Village Chief Wu walked while talking. Soon, Village Chief Zhang and Village Chief Li also rushed over.

The elders in each village greeted each other, and the younger ones were laughing and joking, hugging their necks and hugging their waists. They were clustered together in twos and threes.

But women are very interesting. No matter how old they are, they all have one thing in common, that is, they keep stealing glances.

Those walking in front looked back from time to time, while those walking behind just stared at Chu Qing's back and whispered.

"Did you see that? The one holding the child killed two and crippled one!"

"Really? I heard about it yesterday and thought it was those guys bragging."

"I'm telling you, that bitch is so wild, she even dares to kill her son!"

"Oh my god, that kid is a little big, can he kill someone?"

"That's not the case! I heard from the fat man's mother that if the kid hadn't stabbed the bad guy in the neck, maybe none of them would have survived!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, ya na ye!"

"..."

Chu Qing listened to the discussion at the back and looked at the eyes in front of her that looked back at her from time to time. Needless to say, what these people said before and after was almost the same.

When there is a crisis, they will pray for someone to save them. When the crisis is over, they will chew it again and again to show off their knowledge.

The scar is healed and the pain is forgotten.

Chu Qing hugged Xiaobao, but he could only hold him. His back was injured and he couldn't carry it. He whispered to Xiaobao: "Don't listen to what you don't want to hear. Just recite the mantra in your heart. Just say silently in your heart, 'Don't listen, don't listen.'"

Listen, you bastard is reciting the sutra, ignore it and scold yourself. Do you remember?"

Xiaobao actually nodded seriously.

"Sister!" A crisp shout came, and Zhang Erni ran in the opposite direction from the front. She wanted to take over Xiaobao, but Xiaobao didn't move.

"Your mother's neck and shoulders are injured, I'll hold you." Xiaobao gave in.

"Your son is so disgusted with you," Zhang Erni smiled, "and he won't even let me hold him."

"Why are you still running back?" Chu Qing asked.

"I'm just here to find you. I don't want to listen to their nonsense. What do they know?"

When Zhang Erni said this, she raised her voice so that everyone around could hear her.

Little Apple's face has a bit of an angry blush, which is pretty good-looking.

"Nothing. They are just curious." Chu Qing said.

It's not magnanimity, it's that I don't want to go against the environment. People are always in the general environment, the era, the region, the folk customs, this is the general environment. There is no need for individuals to fight against the general environment, because they can't fight.

Unless we have enough power to re-establish the rules of the general environment.

The people around were quiet for a while, and then slowly started talking to each other, but the content turned into whose child was so frightened that he cried all night, who had a big hole in his head, whose wife and children all came to the battle, uniformed

Several people.

"Sister, my brother said that none of the bandits escaped, they were all captured."

"Where are the twenty-two people? Where will they be imprisoned after they are arrested?"

"Yes, there are twenty-two, 7 are dead, and the remaining 15 are alive. They are not given any water or rice, so they are tied up. I heard that it is better to tie the living and the dead together in the threshing floor.

People are watching." Zhang Erni looked like she was telling a ghost story, which made Chu Qing want to laugh.

"Sister, let me tell you, everyone in the third fat family should kowtow to you, otherwise she will be doomed!" Zhang Erni said angrily, "That is a heartless person!"

"Er Ni," Chu Qing said; "Don't mention this matter, let it calm down. Otherwise, the bandits did not kill her, the rumors will kill her. She is not the only one in this situation in the village."

"Sister, you are so kind-hearted!" Zhang Erni was so moved that her eyes turned red.

"I was going after her mother-in-law, who was a very nice old man. She also worked hard for our mother-in-law," Chu Qing explained.

"Well," Zhang Erni nodded, "there are two others in the village who are just like the three fat men, and they almost got killed."

"Let this matter go." Chu Qing repeated, "Being a woman is not easy."

As he spoke, he came to the threshing floor. In the center of the threshing floor, there was a horizontal, crooked gourd shape made of firewood sticks. The mouth of the gourd faced east.

The village chiefs organized everyone to gather around the pattern so that everyone could see the pattern on the ground.

People watched and started talking, and soon it became loud. Because everyone was talking, and you couldn't hear clearly if you didn't raise your voice, so the voices became louder and louder, and it was very noisy. Chu Qing didn't like noise, so he frowned tightly.

It was tight and I felt irritable again.

At this time, Mr. Xie came out, stood in the gourd pattern, and pressed down with his hands. The crowd became quiet. Village Chief Wu shouted at this time: "Those in front sit on the ground, and those in the back stand. Everyone should listen carefully.

Sir, tell me."

People responded one after another, and the men sat down as much as possible, leaving space for the women and children to stand and watch. Chu Qing took Xiaobao back and stood in the crowd. She felt that today's content was very important.

Mr. Xie held a long branch in his hand, stood still, and said: "Today, all of us are going to class." The crowd began to whisper again, weren't they talking about what happened yesterday when bandits approached the village? Why did it change to class again?

Already?

Mr. Xie used the branch in his hand to mark the "gourd belly" on the ground and said:

"Look, everyone, this is our Daxuan Kingdom." He gestured to the "gourd waist" again: "This narrow strip is the Donglun Kingdom." Then he stepped into the "guluzui" half and said, "This is it.

Voss Country.”

The crowd was about to boil again, because people were curious about how small Dong Lun was despite how big their country was. Mr. Xie waved a branch to silence the people's voices:

"The lesson I am teaching you today is to talk about who our Daxuan is fighting, where we are fighting, and where our home is." The crowd was so quiet that you could hear the needle drop.

"Our Daxuan, Donglun and Voss are like a gourd, with its mouth facing east and its belly in the west. Our Kyoto is here," Mr. Xie picked up a stone and placed it in the middle and upper part of the gourd's belly.

"We are here in Jizhou," he picked up a smaller stone and placed it against the waist of the gourd.

"Our village is here," Mr. Xie took out a copper plate from his pocket and placed it close to the northern end of the gourd's waist.

"The place where we are fighting is in this section," Mr. Xie said, placing two firewood sticks vertically on the middle and upper parts of the gourd's waist.

Chu Qing looked at it carefully. This was the first time she had seen the topographic map of this country since she traveled through time.

"This gourd is higher in the east and lower in the west. Therefore, the Voss Country is basically the Gobi Desert. It is rich in agate, but does not grow food. The Donglun Country is not much better. It is such a narrow strip with mostly rocks and minerals in the mountains.

, and it’s not easy to grow food,” Mr. Xie explained.

"We are in Daxuan. The terrain is gentle, the area is vast, and the mountains, rivers and rivers are relatively evenly distributed. It is very suitable for growing food. This is the reason for the war." Mr.
