Chapter 391: Bitterness Comes Sweetly

The cold wind is blowing fiercely, whistling, and Maojia Village, which is already dying in popularity, is even more desolate when people go to the empty building.

The five old men had been standing in the cold wind since last night, and had spent the whole night in the fierce cold wind. The cold outside no longer affected them, and what really made them feel the cold was a deep despair.

Facing the early morning sun, the fourth uncle clearly saw a group of cavalry appear at the end of the winding path. In the desperate expressions of the five, the number of cavalry continued to increase, and it continued to the end of the sky, seemingly endless.

"Alas, these greedy people can't even wait for a day." The fourth uncle suddenly let out a soft sigh.

Under the leadership of the fourth uncle, the four old men slowly walked outside the gate of the village, and the five of them directly blocked the gate of the village and sat cross-legged on the ground. Everyone closed their eyes and was ready to die.

The horse team in front of him suddenly broke away from the three fast horses and galloped to the front, and the leader was Mao Bowen, who rode his horse with excitement on his face, but saw his younger brother sitting at the gate of the village with four clansmen, I don't know why?

Hearing the approach of the horse's hooves, the fourth uncle felt more and more chilled in his heart, accompanied by a trace of despair and fear, and no one dared to open his eyes to look. They would rather the enemy just ride their horses and trample them over and give them a quick break than to be tortured to death.

Mao Bowen stood in front of the fourth uncle with the support of the two accompanying clansmen, he looked at the faces of the five people who were going to die, and immediately understood that something bad must have happened. He couldn't calm down anymore, and said tremblingly: "Mao Bowu, what happened in the village? ”

The long-lost voice lingered in his ears, making the fourth uncle Mao Bowu slightly stunned for a moment, but he thought that this was just an illusion before death.

Seeing that his younger brother ignored his question, Mao Bowen was anxious about the safety of his clan, so he directly reached out and grabbed Mao Bowu's collar and yelled again: "Tell me, what happened in the village?" ”

This time, Mao Bowu finally woke up suddenly, this is not an illusion, but his eldest brother and his own brother are back!

The surprised Mao Bowu immediately opened his eyes and looked at the eldest brother in front of him with an anxious and angry face, his old eyes were red, and he choked up and said, "Big ...... Big brother, you're back. ”

The other four old men also reacted one after another, and when they opened their eyes, they did see that the patriarch who had been out for more than a year had returned.

The joy did not last long, Mao Bowu quickly woke up, he didn't expect Mao Bowen to come back at this time, obviously it was really not the time. Originally, I thought that those people who escaped could rely on their eldest brother and continue to survive in another country.

Unexpectedly, this only hope was completely shattered at this moment, and the anxious emotions had made Mao Bowu lose his basic sanity, and he still did not understand that the cavalry in front of him who was slowly approaching were his own people.

"Big brother, if you come back at this time, you will kill my Mao clan in the sky!" After Mao Bowu reacted, he suddenly looked up to the sky and cried out.

The four old men behind him also realized the seriousness of the problem, and they all showed sad and angry expressions.

At this moment, Mao Bowen still hasn't figured out what happened? But a while has passed since his arrival, but there is no other person in the village, and only these five people are in sight.

A trace of bad emotions immediately surfaced in Mao Bowen's heart, and in his urgency, he couldn't care about being polite anymore, and directly shook his hand and called Mao Bowu, who was still talking crazy, with a big ear scraper.

"Smack!"

The hard slap finally made Mao Bowu, who had always been very excited, stop, he looked at his eldest brother in a daze, and didn't understand why?

Mao Bowen didn't explain at all, he asked, "What about the other clansmen?" It's all there, what the hell is going on, tell me quickly! ”

Mao Bowu, who came back to his senses, didn't dare to delay any longer, he immediately explained everything in detail, and then pointed to the slowly coming brigade of soldiers and horses in the distance and asked, "Big brother, are those people ......?"

Mao Bowen was very angry at the moment, he didn't pay attention to Mao Bowu's question at all, but turned around and left everyone, and got on his horse and galloped to the soldiers and horses who were slowly moving forward.

The people of the Mao clan have left since last night, and those who have left are women, children, old and young, and they will definitely not be able to go far in one night. In such a cold winter, how dangerous it is to travel all night, in case of encountering bandits or something, it is sure to endanger everyone's lives.

Mao Bowen was so anxious that he quickly rushed to Mao Wenlong's carriage and begged him to immediately send someone to chase down those fleeing clansmen.

After Mao Wenlong pondered for a while, he immediately shouted loudly: "Chen Jisheng! ”

"The subordinates are here." Chen Jisheng heard Mao Wenlong's shout and immediately rode his horse over.

"Immediately take your cavalry battalion and go with the third uncle to find the Hui people, if anyone dares to disadvantage them, they will be killed!" Mao Wenlong's cold voice revealed a hint of chill.

Chen Jisheng bowed slightly, and immediately hugged his fists to receive the order: "Obey!" ”

After hearing this, Mao Bowen finally felt a little relieved, and then confessed to Chen Jisheng, and quickly ran back to bring a person who knew the way to chase back the departing clansmen.

At this moment, Mao Bowu had already learned from the mouths of the two clansmen who followed his eldest brother that the soldiers and horses that came this time were brought by Mao Wenlong, who was not dead. He was already in complete shock, so much so that when Mao Wenlong stood in front of him, he didn't even react.

Mao Wenlong looked up at the dilapidated village in front of him, and he had fully understood that the people of the Mao clan were indeed living a hard life.

"You're the fourth uncle Mao Bowu, right?" Mao Wenlong retracted his gaze and threw it on Mao Bowu, who was still stunned.

Mao Bowu was surprised to find that the young man in front of him did look very similar to Mao Wenlong when he was a teenager. But to say that the young man in front of him is Mao Wenlong, he can't believe it, obviously, the problem of age is an unbridgeable gap.

"Are you really the eldest young master?" Mao Bowu had a face full of doubts.

Mao Wenlong seemed to have expected such a scene for a long time, he smiled and nodded: "If it is fake, as for the reason for the matter, you will naturally know in the future, now is not the time to talk about this, tell me what happened in the village?" ”

Mao Bowu turned around and exchanged glances with the others behind him, and then greeted Mao Wenlong to the big thatched hut in the village. After that, he told Mao Wenlong about what happened yesterday, Mao Wenlong's eyes lit up coldly when he heard it, and he said coldly to King Fu: "All this is a good thing you did?" ”
