The sun was high, and the people in the town were all talking about the robbers.The chamber of commerce made a long-distance call to the county, saying that the chief of the public security bureau "captured robbers" was killed in action, and the director of the security team "co-captured" was also seriously injured.When the county reported it to the province, the robbers turned into bandits, "gathering two or three hundred people, haunting and erratic, with sharp firearms." According to reports, the province dispatched a company of security teams to "suppress".

On the day the security team arrived in the town, they passed by on the street, and Sister Ling also saw it.She didn't quite understand whether these soldiers were here to help the master, or to help the uncle.For some reason, she believed that the master was secretly shot by the uncle.But she only thought about it in her stomach, and she never said it even in front of the young master. The master's injury is getting better day by day.A small pistol bullet remained in the flesh, but the wound was closed.Sister Ling was afraid that the master would force her again after he recovered.

Behind her back, she asked the young master to find a way to save her.The young master had no choice but to laugh at her instead. After a few more days, the master was able to walk around.Sister Ling was so flustered that she couldn't even eat. However, the master also seems to have something on his mind, so he doesn't get too involved with sister Ling.One of the captains often comes to talk to the master.The voice is very low.The master often frowned.Once, sister Ling was making bird's nest for the master, and heard the captain say: "The Chamber of Commerce provides them with 30 tables of wine and meals every day. It has been more than half a month now, and the Chamber of Commerce has spent more than 2,000 yuan. The president of the Chamber of Commerce, Lao Li, is also eager for them to leave immediately, but the security team The company commander said: Shangfeng sent him to suppress the bandits, and if they don’t meet the bandits, it’s inconvenient for them to go back and sell their business—”

"Hmph! Fucking salesman!" The master clenched his teeth and said, but his brows furrowed even tighter.The captain paused, and said a few more words in the master's ear, and the master immediately jumped up and shouted: "What! Yesterday they asked for thirty taels of land for nothing. Did they make any progress today? You bastard!" "There's another layer of shit. They're still robbing them halfway! Our brothers sent soil to the regular customers of several big households, but they robbed them halfway. They lived here for half a month and knew all the ways. Already!"

"Huh! That's not the reverse!" The master patted the table again, and said angrily, the red veins on his face burst out, as thick as a little finger.Sister Ling looked panicked, as if the master was going to shoot her again. "Let them live for another half a month, and our business will be over! We must quickly find a way!" said the captain with a sigh.The master followed suit with a sigh.Afterwards, the two chattered for a long time, and sister Ling saw that the master had a little joy on his face, so she couldn't stop nodding.Before leaving, the captain suddenly called the master by his nickname and said:

"Tai Sui, don't worry! We will dress up quietly, and we will never show our feet! It's better to go to the northwest village, where the countryside is still a bit oily, and we will subsidize how much." "Then, we patrollers must be extra careful. If we ask them to pull out of the town, our people have to retreat quickly; don't really fight with them and make a joke!" After repeated warnings from the master, the captain left.The master sat there with a straight face and thought for a while, then sent the old lady to find the uncle.Sister Ling felt uncomfortable when she heard about "Uncle".She really wanted to tell the master what she was wondering about, but she didn't say anything and just avoided it.

The uncle and the master talked for a while, and then hurried away.When meeting Sister Ling by the door, my uncle made a grimace, showing a mouthful of big teeth and smiling at Sister Ling.Sister Ling's hair stood on end, as if seeing a poisonous snake sticking out its tongue. At dinner, the master suddenly drank again.Sister Ling poured a cup for the master, feeling a little sad in her heart.She felt that it was going to be another disaster tonight.But it was a mischief, the master did not do anything other than drink.The master used a small cup this time, drank very slowly and elegantly, put down the cup from time to time, and listened with his ears sideways.At the time of the first shift, suddenly there was the sound of Puda Puda's footsteps on the street, with someone shouting passwords in the middle.The master stopped drinking, and leaned on the bed with a heavy heart, asking sister Ling to beat his legs.After a long time, the sound of gunfire was heard in the distance.The master suddenly jumped up and ran to the window to look.There is a faint light of fire in the northwest corner.After looking at it for a while, the master poured himself a big bowl of wine, shook his head, and stretched out his arms.Sister Ling knew that the master was about to take off his clothes, so she couldn't help but tremble in her heart.But it was a mischief again, the master lay on the bed and let sister Ling beat his legs for a while, and then he fell asleep.

The next day, Sister Ling was in the kitchen and overheard Ada, the man who carried water, saying that last night there were bandits in Northwest Township, and the security team went out to fight in the middle of the night. They were all taken to the police station. The old lady slapped the table in the front room again and cursed: "If you pet a goblin, you will have trouble with your own son-in-law! Offending the Sun Bodhisattva—" Sister Ling brought the longan and lotus seed soup upstairs. As soon as she got outside the door, she heard the master say sharply: "You're unconscious! Talk to me like that!"

"But you didn't think that shot last time was enough?" It was the voice of my uncle clenching his teeth; the sneers that made people tremble a few times were also my uncle's voice.Sister Ling's heart was beating wildly, but her legs were still walking, but when she saw the young master raised his hand and pointed a dark pistol at the master, Sister Ling's legs softened, and the blood all over her body seemed to freeze.I only heard the old man drink: "Kill the embryo! How dare you—" boom! Sister Ling fell by the door with this sound, and she also saw Uncle grimacing and striding past her.
