Chapter 13: They can’t let their family stand up
Luo's father led a dozen young men to block Niu Erzhuang and Niu Sanzhuang's path.
Seeing that they were surrounded, Niu Erzhuang waved his wooden stick at the villagers indiscriminately, preventing the villagers from getting close, and threatened: "We are the Niu Tougou Niu family. There are more than 200 people in our Niu clan, and everyone can beat them." , those who are not afraid of death will come and catch us!"
Father Luo's face was dark. He grabbed the stick wielded by Niu Erzhuang and pulled it hard. After Niu Erzhuang was pulled over, he kicked Niu Erzhuang over neatly and took the stick from Niu Erzhuang's hand. Stick, sweeping towards Niu Sanzhuang next to him.
With a bang, Niu Sanzhuang was knocked to the ground.
"Catch him." Luo's father told a dozen young men, while he cut Niu Erzhuang's hands behind his back and pressed him to the ground.
The young men immediately stepped forward to catch Niu Sanzhuang and quickly subdued him.
Niu Dazhuang and Niu Xiaozhuang didn't care about the other Niu brothers, and they ran away from the mountain as hard as they could.
Gu Dafu, the son of the village chief, led the villagers in hot pursuit behind them. However, the two ran too fast, and they could not catch up even after they chased for dozens of meters.
Gu Jinli had been into the mountains several times and knew the terrain of the mountains. He took Luo Huiniang to take a shortcut and lie in wait. When Niu Dazhuang and Niu Xiaozhuang came running, he hit Niu Dazhuang's calf with a wooden stick.
Bang!
The cow Dazhuang was hit, howled, and rolled its body in a circle before lying on the ground.
Gu Jinli jumped out of the bushes where he was ambushing, grabbed the wooden stick, and started beating Niu Dazhuang randomly.
With the hatred that the original owner was beaten to death by the Niu brothers, she beat Niu Dazhuang mercilessly and beat Niu Dazhuang to a **** head. She didn't stop until Gu Dafu came with the villagers.
Niu Xiaozhuang is a selfish man. When he saw Niu Dazhuang being knocked down, he ran madly out of the mountain without stopping.
“Stop!” Luo Huiniang chased after her and shouted at Niu Xiaozhuang.
Niu Xiaozhuang grew up with several older brothers and was also a ruthless man. When he saw Luo Huiniang chasing after him, he hit Luo Huiniang on the head with the big stone he had been holding.
Luo Huiniang tilted her head and narrowly dodged the stone. Looking at the sharp stone stuck in the soil, she became even more angry. She grabbed the stone and threw it at Niu Xiaozhuang's back.
“Ah.” Niu Xiaozhuang screamed and was knocked down by a stone.
Luo Huiniang ran over, clenched her fists and beat Niu Xiaozhuang indiscriminately: "I'll let you catch small fish, I'll let you grab food, I'll let you **** water, I'll beat you bad rice seedlings to death!"
Niu Xiaozhuang's eyes flashed fiercely and he resisted desperately. He grabbed Luo Huiniang's hand that hit him and bit him hard. Luo Huiniang's wrist was bitten and bled, but she strangled Niu Xiaozhuang's neck with her arm to prevent him from running away.
After a while, the villagers who arrived worked together to subdue Niu Xiaozhuang.
Niu Sizhuang was also captured by Luo Wu.
Gu Dafu asked the villagers to tie up the five Niu brothers with straw ropes, take them to a water source, and tie them to a dead tree.
Looking at the five Niu brothers who had been beaten to death, Gu Jinli finally let out the turbid anger in his heart and said to the original owner in his heart: Little girl Xiaoyu, I have avenged you.
Village Chief Gu hurried over with the rest of the villagers. He was startled when he saw the Niu brothers covered in blood and unable to move. He hurriedly asked: "Why don't you stop? Don't let anyone die."
Luo's father said: "Village chief, don't worry, they just fainted and are not dead."
Village Chief Gu breathed a sigh of relief: "It's good that they are not dead. After all, they are from Niutougou. There are more than 200 tribesmen. If they die, our village will be in trouble."
On the way to escape the famine, what Village Chief Gu was most afraid of was conflicting with other victims and causing trouble for the village.
Although these Niu brothers have done many evil things, they cannot really kill them.
Village Chief Gu looked at the sky and said to the villagers: "Go and fetch water quickly. After the water is full, we have to hurry on."
“Okay.” The villagers responded, leaving the Niu brothers behind and returned to the water hole to fetch water.
The water in the puddles was getting less and less. The villagers struggled for more than a quarter of an hour before they could no longer get water.
Gu Dafu went to Village Chief Gu with a water jar full of mud and told him about draining the water.
Village Chief Gu looked at the mud in the half-filled water tank, sighed, and asked Gu Dafu: "Has everyone in the village got water?"
Gu Dafu smiled and replied: "I got them all."
The families who received more water filled everything they had to hold water, and the families who received less received two jugs of water, which was enough.
Village Chief Gu nodded after hearing this, stood up and said to the villagers: "Pack your things, let's continue on our way. We must catch up with the victims before dark, and we must not fall behind! There are three victims from three prefectures behind us. If they catch up, we won't be able to save anything!" This drought affected all seven prefectures in the northwest. Their Long'an Prefecture is in the center of the northwest. There are victims from three prefectures escaping in front of them, and there are victims from three prefectures behind. Come.
The victims of the disaster are bullying strangers. Once they see strangers’ faces, they will join forces to grab things.
The villagers knew that the victims were ruthless in robbing things, so they quickly packed up their things and began to leave the mountains.
As for the five Niu brothers, before leaving, Village Chief Gu asked the villagers to untie their ropes so that they could leave on their own when they woke up.
The third grandma was already waiting near the mountain pass with the wives and children of the Cui family, the Chu family, Aunt Tian, and the Lao Yan family. When she saw the villagers coming out, she immediately followed them carrying their things.
When Mrs. Gu saw Mrs. Cui, the anger she had been holding in all morning finally found an outlet. She put her crutches on the ground and shouted: "Ms. Cui, come here quickly and give me a hand!"
Mrs. Cui shivered in fright when she heard Mrs. Gu's voice.
Gu Jinli shouted: "Nai, isn't my aunt supporting you? My mother followed my father to dig water all night last night and is tired."
This is not nonsense. The five families who dug water last night were all so tired that their faces turned pale and their eyes were black.
Village Chief Gu didn't want to interfere with old Gu's family affairs, but thinking of the contribution of Gu Dashan's family, he couldn't bear it. He spoke for Gu Dashan's family for the first time: "Old Liu, the Dashan family has been tired all night, let the children rest, you With so many sons and daughters-in-law, are you afraid that no one will take care of you?"
Mr. Gu is the sixth in the family. People of his generation in the village who are older than him call him Lao Liu.
Seeing that the village chief had spoken in person, Mr. Gu glanced at Mrs. Gu and signaled her to calm down.
Old Mrs. Gu was so angry that she knew she couldn't cause any trouble to the boss and his family now, so she had no choice but to suppress her anger and let Aunt Gu help her on her way.
Cui's family escaped.
Gu Jinan whispered from the side: "Xiaoyu is now capable and can protect our mother."
Gu Jinli smiled and teased Brother Cheng. The family gathered together and headed on the road, carrying their things on their backs.
They walked for a whole day, and it was not until dark that they caught up with the fleeing team in front.
Village Chief Gu asked Gu Dafu to knock the clapper and inform the villagers: "Everyone rest where you are. It is already dark now. The village will not organize villagers to find food tonight. Those who want to find food can organize their own people. Be careful and pay attention." Be safe, don’t cause trouble, let’s continue on our way tomorrow.”
The villagers were exhausted. After finding a resting place nearby for the night, they started to light a fire and boil water for dinner.
“Ms. Cui, hurry up and work!” Old Mrs. Gu was leaning on her crutches again and scolding: “Da Shan, Brother An, if you two don’t hurry up and find food, you want to starve the whole family to death.”
Cui and Gu Dashan hurriedly untied their things and ran to the old Gu's house with Gu Jinan.
As soon as they left, Aunt Gu took Gu Xiaomei and Qian Lier to the resting place of Gu Dashan's house and started to rummage through Gu Dashan's things.
Gu Jinli protected Gu Jinxiu and Gu Jincheng behind him and looked at them coldly.
Her belongings have long been given to the third grandma for safekeeping, so Aunt Gu and the others can't even hope to find anything good.
Aunt Gu and the other two rummaged around for a while and found only half a bamboo tube of water and half a bag of dry leaves.
Gu Xiaomei was so angry that she glared at Gu Jinli: "Where did your water storage go?"
Gu Jinli pointed to the bamboo tube in Qian Lier's hand and said, "They are all here."
Gu Xiaomei didn't believe it: "The water you fetched first, how could it be that there was only this little water?"
Gu Jinli smiled harmlessly: "If I want to know, I can ask the village chief, or ask the third grandpa and grandma."
"You!" Gu Xiaomei was very angry. Seeing that she couldn't get any advantage, she took the bamboo tube and was about to leave, but she was stopped by Gu Jinli.
Gu Jinli took the bamboo tube from her hand: "This is our water. If my sister takes it away, our family will have to ask the village chief for water."
"You!" Gu Xiaomei was very angry, but she was also afraid of the village chief. When she heard this threat, she could only retreat.
Gu Xiaomei and the others returned to the resting place of Lao Gu's house and scolded Gu Jinli severely.
Qian Guangzong winked at Aunt Gu, who understood and whispered to Mrs. Gu: "Mom, it's not okay for Gu Xiaoyu to use the village chief to suppress our family. We have to find a way to prevent Gu Dashan's family from standing up."
There is only one way for Gu Dashan and his family to never be able to stand up, and that is to sell them!
