Chapter Twelve: The Bandits Arrive
"Li Lao Cai, come out and see me." This morning, Liu He had just gotten up when he heard the shouting outside. He knew that the bandits had arrived, because of the warning from the front laborer, Liu He was already prepared.
The upper garment was tucked in, and the pistol was tucked into the lower hem. Although there was a bit of a bulge on the upper body, it wasn't suspicious because the bandit knew that Li Lao Cai only had two rifles, and he even knew that Li Lao Cai's two rifles were just for show. Every time he came, Li Lao Cai would have his servants carry the rifles far away, fearing that the bandit would snatch both the guns and the goods.
However, the bandits still wanted to give Li Lao Cai's son some face, after all his son was a military officer, if they were provoked, it was possible that his son would bring troops to wipe them out.
"Who are you, Lao Cai Li?" A bearded bandit wearing a tilted top hat and holding a rifle with a bayonet attachment was scratching his head with the gun barrel, looking quite unlike a bandit. Behind him were three others carrying long guns on their backs, who didn't seem to have any intention of robbing them, but rather looked like they were visiting relatives.
"Haha, Lao Cai Li has already bought all his properties from me, I wonder if brother can ask for less?". Liu He came up laughing, at this time the long workers on the side were anxious, "Little ancestor, you quickly let them move their things away, don't you see they are all carrying guns?" This was naturally what the long workers thought, but they didn't say it out loud, it could be seen from their expressions.
"You've bought it, that's good. This year's grain will be doubled." The big-bearded bandit became even more arrogant and, seeing only Liu He, he looked down on him even more.
"Haha, our leader Wang has spoken, you'd better hurry up and move the grain!" The bandit next to him with a rifle on his back also shouted loudly.
"Old man, can you give me a little less? I'm just a rookie dealing with you for the first time." "Less? How much less do you want? Spit!" The big-bearded bandit spat on the ground.
It's now, Liu He takes advantage of the big beard's inattention, puts his hand on his clothes and just grasps the pistol in his hand. With a twist of his body, "bang bang bang bang." Four shots, this gun is really powerful, no jamming, four bandits with guns are knocked to the ground by him.
The distance between these two steps is really shameful if you can't even hit a person.
"Ah......" "Grandfather spare my life, grandfather spare my life." The bandit who was shot to the ground cried out in a miserable tone, while the bandits following behind him directly knelt down on the ground, and were even so scared that they urinated.
"What's wrong with you? You don't even give me face, and now you're trying to snatch my food?" Liu He snatched the pistol from his hand, stroking his big beard.
"You guys, quickly take down those three men's guns! Do you want them to beat your master me to death?" Liu He shouted at the stunned long workers.
"It's the master," after Liu He's loud shout, the long workers were delighted to see these bandits holding guns falling to the ground, while those who didn't hold guns knelt on the ground, all with a look of exhaustion, feeling particularly relieved.
"Brother, I admit defeat. Can you help me bandage my wound? From now on, I won't bother you guys again." "Bandage? You really know how to think," Liu He said, as he used his foot to rub against the wound of this bearded bandit leader.
"Ah, you wait, I'll haunt you even after I'm dead," the bandit leader glared at him with a fierce gaze, and that was it. The three other bandits saw their boss act like this and also snickered in agreement.
"You can't get rid of me even when I'm alive, let alone after I become a ghost. You few come together and go find a place to bury them."
"Hey, little brother, wait a minute." Suddenly, Dog Egg's father ran over from the side, "Ah, what a pity about these clothes, they're all stained with blood. But after washing, they can still be worn." As he muttered to himself, he quickly stripped the robbers of their valuables, "Alright, you guys can go bury them now. There's a mass grave over there."
Those kneeling bandits saw this person and thought that even the dead were not spared, and the ones carrying the coffin were also trembling.
"Good job, little brother! I've been wanting to get rid of them for a long time, but I don't have a gun in my hand, do I?" As Li Shu said this, his eyes were fixed on the rifle case in Liu He's hand.
"Uncle Li, have you taken a liking to this gun? If you want it, just say so. How would I know if you don't tell me that you want the gun?" Liu He weighed the pistol in his hand as he spoke to Dog Egg's father, whose eyes followed Liu He's hand up and down, just like Lao Li had looked at the gold bars in Liu He's hand before.
"Hahaha" The crowd of workers found what the master said interesting, and Dog Egg Father was also very interesting, so they all burst out laughing. "What are you laughing at?" Dog Egg Father shouted angrily. "Uncle, do you want it? If you want it, just say so, if you don't say it, how can we know you want it?" The crowd teased Dog Egg Father in the master's tone, "Hahaha..."
"You, hey, little brother, don't tease old uncle anymore, I'll take this gun." "Alright, it's yours, but uncle, next time listen to me, and you three, with hands and feet so nimble, those three guns will also be yours to manage."
"Ah, thank you, Dongjia." Indeed, these three people were the quickest to react. When Liu He shouted out, they swiftly stepped forward and took the three guns from the bandits' hands. Although the bandits had been knocked down, they hadn't died yet and were already pointing their guns at people. They managed to act one step ahead, which is why no one was hurt.
The bandits are done for, and Liu He himself summed it up. This time was really thrilling, and they were able to win thanks to the bandits not being on high alert when they came down, but rather treating it like a visit to relatives, carrying their guns as if they were carrying firewood. This gave Liu He the opportunity to wipe them out.
To be honest, Liu He really didn't expect it to turn out like this. The pistol was placed in the lower hem of his jacket just in case, and if someone had been holding a gun, he really wouldn't have dared to fire.
"Grandpa, we're back." At this time, those bandits who went to bury the dead all came back.
