Chapter 576: Being a Naughty Child in Troubled Times 39
Xiao Yun didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but because of Wang Ganyun's words, he decided to help them find their comrades who were scattered in the mountains.
Of course, he didn't go looking for him himself. Besides searching the vicinity with his spiritual sense, he also released dozens of invisible drones from a distance. He just looked for him and didn't do anything else. The rules didn't react at all.
The drone produced by StarCraft is very useful. By the evening, it had taken pictures of the area within a hundred miles of Lotus Mountain, and projected the pictures in real time on the split screen on Xiao Yun's side.
A total of more than 140 people were found, including the Red Army and bandits who were in collusion with the Blue Army. Because they were all wearing ordinary people's clothes and were scattered, many of them had faces that could not be seen, and Xiao Yun could not tell them apart for a while.
It wasn't until I had watched for more than half an hour that I could figure out which ones were running in front and which ones were chasing behind.
These people were quite experienced and had managed to escape the pursuit of the bandits several times. Moreover, they were all heading this way and had not lost their way and gone into the mountains.
On the contrary, although the bandits were chasing him all the time, they were bitten by snakes and stung by bees, which made Xiao Yun almost think that he had put a bad luck charm on them.
When the bandits reached the border of Pingyuan County, they obviously slowed down their pace and stopped chasing us. They just fired a few shots and then stopped moving forward.
It seems that they should know something about the situation in Pingyuan County. Even if this place has not allied with the Red Army, it now has close relations with the three provinces and is even more unfriendly to the Blue Army. If these people come here and are discovered, they will be in trouble.
Moreover, there had been no bandits in Pingyuan County for a long time. When County Magistrate Zhao took office, he asked his brother-in-law to send troops to suppress them. No matter what kind of person Yao Shenglin was, he did some good things for the people of Pingyuan County. At least he got rid of the bandit problem.
Of course, although they said they were suppressing bandits, in fact, most of those bandits were recruited and directly sent to the Yao family’s military camp. As long as they were not the kind of people who did all kinds of evil, the military camp would not exclude them. The bandits had a ruthlessness that ordinary people did not have, and they were more suitable for the battlefield.
Xiao Yun marked the approximate location of those people, then wrote a note, called a little mouse, tied the note to it and asked it to deliver it to Wang Ganyun's house.
As for how Wang Ganyun was going to rescue those people, she didn't care. They always had more ways than a child like her.
When the little mouse came back and said that it had put the note in Wang Ganyun's shoes that he had taken off on the edge of the kang, she immediately took back the drones and the little bees that she had left with Wang Ganyun, and fell asleep quickly.
Even though she didn't pay much attention to what happened next, she heard some of the situations. However, she didn't go out after gathering with her friends for the past two days. Apart from helping Gungun and Bai Qiu pack up their things at home, she also went to visit friends and say goodbye to the villagers.
They probably won't have much chance to come back in the future, so they plan to sell the houses and fields here, but they don't have to sell them together. The house will be sold to the village chief's family, and the fields will be sold to the tenants who are farming them.
In the past, they might not be able to afford it even if it was offered at a lower price. But now it is different. Almost every family has someone serving in the military. Lao Hei pays them well, and everyone has some spare money.
The village chief originally wanted to persuade them and said that he would help them look after the house, but then he thought that they were not from their side and their ancestral home was not here, so he said nothing more.
Even if people come back in the future, they will just come to take a look. It is impossible to leave the house empty all the time. That would be such a waste.
In addition to the Xiong family's house, land and warehouse, Xiao Bao's small courtyard was also to be sold, and he went with them, as well as Lao Hui who had returned from the town.
Huang Xiaoer's family refused to leave. They were doing very well in the town and didn't want to move.
Xiao Yun didn't care about them. They wouldn't be in danger anyway.
The two village chiefs, Old Wang, wanted to keep Xiao Bao, but when they heard that he wanted to visit the provincial capital, they couldn't say anything.
I'm in my prime, so it's right for me to want to go out and try my luck. It's already good enough that I've been teaching here for five or six years.
Moreover, Xiao Bao also said that he had already taught all his martial arts techniques to the children here. For example, Wang Tianning and the others had learned most of it, so he could pass on the martial arts skills. As long as they mentioned him as their master when teaching, it would not be in vain for them to have come here as a master and apprentice.
When they officially left, the children and adults who had learned martial arts from him came to see them off. The village roads were crowded with people, which was much more spectacular than Xiao Yun and his group.
There were even a few half-grown children who wanted to go along. If they hadn't been forced to stop by their families, they might have had a few more little kids following them.
It’s not that the adults in the village don’t want their children to go out and explore the world, but they are the only new generation in the family who are about to grow into strong laborers. You know, the middle-aged generation have all gone to the military camp, and if these new generation leave, there will only be the elderly, the weak, women and children left in the family.
Even if you want to go out and explore the world, you have to wait until the next generation grows up.
At this time, we can see the benefits of having many children now. For example, when Wang Tianning's generation is able to start a family and build a career, not to mention the next generation, at least his younger brothers and nephews will have grown up, and there will be no risk of generation gap.
On the afternoon of the first day before Xiao Yun and his men were to leave, the Red Army soldiers in the mountains were rescued. It was unknown how Wang Ganyun did it, but he not only summoned the militia from nearby villages and brought back a team of people from the county. With strength in numbers, they found all the people in one day and one night, and also killed a lot of bandits.
Although some of the people found were already dead, and there were also many injured, some of whom were even seriously injured, they were all brought back and not a single one was left behind.
Later, I asked Xiao Shitou and found out that Wang Ganyun went directly to the county and said that a group of bandits had come from three provinces. It was too dangerous to let those guys stay in the mountains. If that happens, Pingyuan County will be in turmoil.
Of course, this news was brought by the cousin who came to visit relatives. He escaped at the risk of his life. There were also some businessmen and civilians in the hands of those bandits, and they had to rescue them as well.
So the county magistrate specially sent a team of people over and asked the local militia to go up the mountain to help search and make sure to deal with those bandits.
Fortunately, they brought the people back in time, otherwise if they left, the injured people would not be able to find Xiao Bao to help treat them. His medical skills and the medicines he used were unmatched by other doctors.
With Xiao Bao's help in treatment, most of the wounded survived, except for two who were still breathing their last when they came down the mountain, but were already dead by the time he got there.
……
Originally, Xiao Yun thought that there would be nothing more to do for them from now on, but he didn't expect to see Yu Hui at the entrance of the village when he was leaving in a mule cart today.
