The front and rear roads of the caravan were blocked by rioters. The rioters’ eyes were full of greed. They did not give the caravan much time to be on guard. After receiving the signal, the rioters quickly rushed towards the caravan.
Tt was a huge caravan and there was no way for more than 200 guards to protect it all. They had to abandon most of the freight carriages and gather all the personnel together.
The caravan drivers who followed them all over the country knew a thing or two, so for a while the rioters were unable to break into the inner area.
However, it was only temporary. There was a skilled archer among the rioters who shot down a guard with one arrow, creating a gap in the caravan’s defense.
Third Yang led the Wu brothers in archery, but unfortunately, only Third Yang’s accuracy was good, because the bows and arrows were made temporarily and were not good, so they were worn out very quickly.
There was a big gap in the military strength between the two sides, and the rioters suffered the most casualties, but the number of refugees was large, and they rushed up again after a while.
In the previous life, Yang Xi did not encounter such a large-scale fight. In the previous life, they followed the most miserable refugees and saved their lives!
She deeply realized the importance of surviving in troubled times!
In this life, they took the caravan to leave Pingzhou smoothly, but also took risks. There is no such thing as a cheap thing in the world, everything is relative.
Yang Xi didn’t know how many people Zhou Yu had killed. She stared at him without blinking. Zhou Yu was really good at fighting!
Little brother Zhou was already dumbfounded. His elder brother alone blocked the rioters, and he and Li Zheng could only help to cooperate and finish off the enemies.
The Wu family was very strong, and they only had one machete, so they had to use sticks for the rest, which they wielded very vigorously.
The two families cooperated to prevent the rioters from touching the carriage. When all the bows in Third Yang’s hands were broken, he joined the fight with a knife. The rioters realized that he was a tough guy and consciously rushed around this side.
A rioter who was good at archery died. After sending away the three guards of the caravan, he was sent away by the archers of the caravan.
Without long-range assistance, the rioters found it difficult to rush over for a while.
Yang Xi covered her mouth. The smell of blood was too strong. Zhou Xiaomei didn’t dare to look at it anymore. She closed her eyes tightly and trembled a little.
The smell of blood stimulated both sides to kill each other until the rioters were killed or injured. The rioters were finally scared when the guards took the initiative to kill them, and those who had the strength dropped their farm tools and ran away.
Yang Xi opened the curtain again, only to see the blood-thirsty guards on horseback chasing after the fleeing mobs.
Yang Xi retracted her gaze and quickly got out of the carriage. The compacted snow had turned red, shaking so much that Yang Xi stood for a while before getting used to it. She quickly walked to Zhou Yu and said, “Let me see the wound.”
Zhou Yu was covered in blood, and her voice was trembling as she spoke.
Zhou Yu’s arm hurt badly, and he said, “It was only a knife wound, and my bones were not injured. I’m fine, don’t worry.”
The men from both the Zhou and Wu families were injured. Younger Zhou was the least injured, having been hit on the back by a stick!
It was quite dangerous at the time. If Third Yang hadn’t pulled him in time, the stick would have hit Brother Zhou’s head!
Yang Xi was scared when she thought about it. Thinking of this, he asked, “Where’s Third Yang?”
She saw Third Yang had been stabbed twice. Hey, where is he?
Zhou Yu pointed to the front and said, “They are checking the bodies!”
Yang Xi, “.”
The Zhou family had medicine for injuries. She had asked Wang the Hunter to buy it for them. Now it could save lives!
The death toll of the entire caravan was unknown, and those who survived were basically injured, so the medicine prepared by the caravan must not be enough.
So they could only rely on themselves at this time.
Yang Xi gave one-third of the medicine to the Wu family, kept some for them, and gave the rest to Third Yang, who was the most seriously injured!
The Wu family had Li Shi and her daughter-in-law bandaging the wound, while the Zhou family had Yang Xi and Zhou Xiaomei.
Yang Xi looked at Zhou Yu’s uncovered flesh, her hands shaking a little. There was no condition to suture it, so she could only treat the wound first. Fortunately, she bought a lot of wine to commemorate her father-in-law, otherwise there would be no wine to sterilize it.
Zhou Yu’s arms were shaking violently. It hurt so much, even more than when he was injured.
Ziheng couldn’t stop crying. He blew the wind while crying, “Dad, I’ll blow on it and it won’t hurt anymore.”
Zhou Yu wanted to comfort his son, but it really hurt!
By the time the medicine was applied, Zhou Yu was soaked all over. He sat back and did not move. He had used up all his strength in the fight just now and now he had no strength left.
Brother Zhou didn’t know whether his face turned pale because of the pain in his back or because he was scared because it was his first time killing someone, but he sat there motionless.
Outside, Third Yang endured the pain and continued to ruffle through the bodies, muttering as he did so, “I knew these grandsons were wealthy. Look, this guy is wearing rags but he actually has a tael of silver hidden in his clothes!”
Li Zheng’s eyes sparkled. Seeing his master stand up, he asked, “Are you not going to strip anymore?”
Third Yang has principles. “I only touch the ones killed by our two families. Hiss, it hurts so much. Let’s go back and apply medicine.”
He had completely regarded himself as a member of the Zhou family!
Third Yang came back and saw Yan Bing, who was picking up the knife from the rioters and wiping it carefully. He found that Yan Bing was not injured. This was interesting. What a weak and frail boy, he was obviously quite skilled!
Yan Bing felt the gaze, “.”
The rioters harmed him!
Third Yang snorted, carrying his bag, and went to Zhou’s carriage.
Yang Xi saw the silver and money in the bundle and asked, “So much?”
Zhou Yu had recovered for a while and said with some strength: “I’ll take them to the donkey cart to apply medicine.”
Yang Xi handed over the wound medicine cotton cloth, etc. After Zhou Yu and the others left, Yang Xi took the thread to string copper coins. The bundle had the most copper coins. As she was stringing, Yang Xi said, “They originally planned to rob the Cheng family, but when they found the caravan, they surrounded it. Now the rioters are dead or injured, and the Cheng family has escaped a life-and-death disaster.”
Zhou Xiaomei thought, “I’m so lucky to have a family.”
Otherwise, the Cheng family would be wiped out. These rioters were really crazy. Her hands couldn’t help shaking whenever she thought about it.
Yang Xi saw it all. She knew the tenacity and strength in her younger sister’s bones. After experiencing this life-and-death experience, her younger sister had completely grown up.
On the Zhou family’s donkey cart, Third Yang stared at Yan Bing, and even though he was shivering with pain, he never looked away.
Yan Bing, “.”
Zhou Yu was not gentle. He quickly treated Third Yang’s wound and said coldly, “Only by living can you have a future. You were reckless today.”
Third Yang, “I thought of my father, and I am sure.”
Zhou Yu sneered, “The last thing you should believe is certainty. Those who drown are people who know how to swim.”
Third Yang remained silent. Zhou Yu helped Li Zheng treat his wounds. Third Yang was very good at training people. This kid grew up in a barracks and was good at training soldiers. Li Zheng’s performance today was very eye-catching.
Zhou Yu was thinking about taking in some young boys for Third Yang to train after things got settled. It wouldn’t be enough to just have the Wu family!
Third Yang waited for his elder brother to stop staring at him and looked at Yan Bing with a smile, “I’ll give you two choices. The first is that you confess voluntarily, and the second is that you leave voluntarily and fend for yourself in Bozhou.”
Yan Bing, “.”
Was this giving him a choice? There was only one choice!
Zhou Yu glanced at Yan Bing and continued to treat Li Zheng’s wound without saying a word. It was enough to leave him to Third Yang.
Yan Bing had observed these days that Zhou Yu and Third Yang were both ruthless people. He took a deep breath and said, “My last name is not Yan. I am from Bozhou.”
