Chapter 385 Saved
After they treated their wounds, they hurried on their way.
There is no real safety at this time.
"By the way, during the previous battle, I noticed that those bandits had similar tattoos on their bodies." Wei Ren put his right hand on Wang Zeren's shoulder and helped him walk.
“Yeah, I saw that too, and I could tell from the beginning that they were not bandits.
If they were bandits, they would just rob us. We had already abandoned the carriage, but they were still chasing us so relentlessly."
Wei Ren said angrily: "If I knew which bastard hired the killer, I would kill his entire family."
"We have to find it, so let's get out alive first."
By the time the two men had walked this far, the sun had already set. If they didn't clean their wounds properly, they would either be hacked to death by the bandits or bleed to death.
At this time, Wang Zeren could only move forward with the support of Wei Ren.
"Hey, hold on a little longer. You can already see the village."
Wei Ren knew the way when he was chased here. Now that he was here again, he went straight to the old couple who had rescued him before.
"Bang bang bang-"
There was a rapid knock on the door.
This time it was still the old lady who opened the door.
The old man was frightened when the door was just opened a crack. The child was injured when he came for the first time, and he had more wounds on his body this time.
"Grandma, please save my brother." Wei Ren was already crying at this time. Wang Zeren had been holding on all the way, but now he has fainted.
The old man stuck his head out and looked around: "Come in quickly."
"Old man, come and help."
The old couple moved the two men onto the bed and began to check their wounds.
As they were old and experienced, the two men had knife wounds on their bodies, so it was relatively simple to deal with them.
Xiaoman didn’t use their ointment before because she didn’t trust strangers, but Wei Ren was not so cunning.
The old lady washed three basins of blood.
The old lady saw the two people were so seriously injured, and she burst into tears: "My child, how could you be so seriously injured?"
This is how Nian'er died in front of them. Now seeing this teenage child, the old man felt so distressed.
The old man didn't wait for a reply, and Wei Ren fainted after he finished speaking.

"Second adjutant, how are you?" Xiao Liu supported Er Mazi, who was shot in the chest. The two of them had already reached the main road and would reach Jixiang Village in a few minutes.
Er Mazi waved his hand: "I'm fine."
"It's all my fault. If I had hidden, you, the adjutant, wouldn't have been hurt." Xiao Liu carried Er Mazi on his back and ran forward like crazy.
"Don't say that. I've been to the battlefield. If a rookie like you dies, your mother will cry to death."
Because most of the bandits went to chase Wang Zeren, and Er Mazi was experienced.
Xiao Liu was basically uninjured.
He carried Ermaizi on his back and ran all the way to Xu Wenyan's yard.
"Woof woof woof! Woof!"
The black bear heard the motive and started barking.
The roar woke Chen Sanlin up.
He threw back the quilt, picked up the hunting knife beside him and walked into the yard.
As soon as I opened the door, Xiaoman came down from upstairs.
"Xiao Liu? Why are you back?" Xiaoman quickly took the pockmarks off Xiao Liu's body.
"Brother Xiaoman! Go and rescue General Wang. We have been ambushed by bandits." Xiao Liu said crying.
"What happened? Don't cry and explain clearly." Xu Wenyan came out wearing a coat at this time to calm Xiao Liu's emotions.
Xiao Liu nodded and told the whole story.
......
"It's hard for them to wait so hard." Xiang Wenyan sighed: "Xiaoman, go call Chen Xingjie and ask him to gather the men in the village.
These bandits will not stop until they achieve their goal, so let Brother Xingjie make the matter sound more serious.
If bandits enter the village at this time, the village will also suffer.”
"Xiaohua, Rongrong, go and ask Aunt Yuyin to come and take care of this uncle."
"Yeah." The two children ran quickly towards the pasture.
Xu Wenyan went into the house, changed his clothes, and took the saber he had seized earlier.
"Black Bear, let's go. Xiao Liu and Brother Chen, let's go to the ancestral hall first." With just a few of them, they had no chance of winning against hundreds of bandits.
All I can do now is hope that Chen Xingjie is fast enough.
Just as he was about to leave, Xu Wenyan stopped again: "Wait. Brother Chen, take out all the torches at home."
After getting ready, the three men and the dog rushed towards the Chen Family Ancestral Hall.
At this time, the faint light of fire could be seen.
In front of hundreds of villagers, Chen Xingjie said loudly: "Fellow villagers, the bandits are coming to the village. Today we can't just run away like we did before when we encountered the bandits.
We have finally settled down, do you still want to live a life of wandering and having no place to live?"
"No!" the villagers below said in unison.
They had really had enough of that kind of life. Out of a family of more than ten people, only two or three could survive.
How miserable this is.
“There are 500 strong men in our village. I will select 200 of them to follow me to fight the bandits, and the rest will stay in the village.
After we defeat the bandits, I will report to the county magistrate and ask him to exempt Xujia Village from taxes for another year!"
"it is good!"
Xu Wenyan walked over at this time: "Brother Xingjie, you can go now. There is no time to delay."
"Yeah, but where are we going?"
"Er Mazi told me that there are only a dozen or so bandits chasing them, and we will see them soon.
We are heading towards Xujia Village now. Going down that road will get us to Xujia Village the fastest."
After he finished speaking, Black Bear led the way, and hundreds of villagers came in a mighty procession, holding their own machetes and axes and holding up torches, and ran towards Xujia Village.
Not long after they rushed out, Black Bear, Chen Sanlin and Xiaoman, who were at the front, encountered the dozen or so people.
Chen Sanlin is a hunter, so needless to say his eyesight is excellent.
Black bears are typical wolf-dogs, and canines have better vision at night than humans.
"Damn it, I lost him like that, and I can't even find him when I go back."
"I said we should follow the main force and chase the target person."
"The captain brought so many people with him, they will definitely be able to catch him. We will get nothing if we go there, so it's better to make a little money."
"That's right. The employer said that if you kill one person, you will get at least 20 taels. The heads of the two generals will each be 100 taels."
A dozen people were chatting leisurely.
They were completely unaware that a pair of scarlet eyes were already staring at them.
"Ah—what, what, what is it. There's a wolf!"
The last person at the end of the team was dragged to the ground. When others wanted to step forward to help, they felt a chill on their necks.
Before he could react, the head had already fallen to the ground.
