Chapter 22: Eliminating evil affairs (Wu Xuemei’s story)

The plot of this chapter is followed by Chapter 20 Miaoling Fengyun

Chapter 1: The Blood-stained Miaoshan Demon Witch is here

As soon as Xuemei got up, the two young women came again

They said that the head man would invite her to the banquet tonight and needed to change her clothes and dress her up first

The two of them took off Xuemei's whole body again, washed her body, which had been washed very clean last night, and then washed her hair and combed her hair, applied makeup, and put on bright and beautiful Miao lady's clothes from the inside out.

While dressing up Xuemei, the two women praised her endlessly and praised her as a rare fairy in the sky and the earth. They also said that her husband is really blessed. Tonight, there may be hundreds of men in Miaoling who will not be able to sleep because they are jealous of him.

After packing up, Xuemei looked in the mirror and could hardly recognize herself.

She looks more beautiful than the day she gets married

They tied her hair into the shape of a Miao woman, put on her silver-shiny red-sapphire headdress, and a pair of big pure gold earrings on her ears.

She was wearing a string of bright pearl necklaces around her neck and a pair of crystal green jade bracelets on her arms.

These gold, silver and jewelry alone are worth thousands of taels of silver. Among the Miao women in this area, Liu Mengying is probably the only one who can afford such expensive things.

They told Xuemei that all these jewelry will belong to her in the future, and this is the gift given to her by their boss, the great benefactor.

They looked envious when they said these words

They also said that if Xuemei hadn't married yet, the boss would definitely marry her as his wife. It's a pity.

I don't know if they are sorry for their leader or for Xuemei

Xuemei just smiled, but didn't answer

She heard Zhang Cai and Zhang Fu tell her that the people living on Miaoling are different from the Miao people elsewhere. They are particularly conservative and retain some unique traditions and rules.

The heads here not only enjoy the right to first night, but also the married woman can borrow it at any time.

The Li tribe also had the tradition of first night power in the past

But after all, the times have changed. The past is no longer feasible. In many places, even the toasts have disappeared.

If there was still the chieftain who insisted on exercising those privileges, the people in his tribe would definitely rise up and the government would not support him.

The banquet was held in the open space outside the Miao people's ancestral hall, which is the place where the daytime competition was held.

There are already tables and chairs made of bamboo, freshly prepared chicken, duck, fish, fragrant new rice, and jars of rice wine and corn wine.

Two young women accompanied Xuemei to the banquet. Along the way, there were smiling Miao people who took the initiative to say hello to her, especially those young men, whose eyes were full of admiration and regret.

Through yesterday's incident, they already understood that this woman cannot be hooked up with casually.

Xuemei was invited to the table of the head man Meng Tiehu, and was greeted by Meng Tiehu's mother Liu Mengying. She was also sitting next to her with the three old Miaoling.

As the newly elected leader, Meng Tiehu is holding his wine glass to various tables to toast the villagers.

Xuemei looked around and found that Zhang Cai and Zhang Fu and eight other young and middle-aged people of the Li tribe were also invited.

These eight people were specially sent to help Xuemei because the old chieftain Wang Zhong was worried.

However, they were not present during the competition. It was Meng Sanmei who brought them to Miaoling later.

Instead of sitting in front of her, they were accompanied by Meng Sanmei and sat far away at another table. She was pouring them wine.

As soon as Xuemei entered the venue, she became the focus of everyone's attention. Not only were adult men and women coming to express their respect and admiration for her, but even the children were surrounded by her noisy and reluctant to leave for a long time.

After the banquet began, a group of Miao girls dressed in extremely charmingly sang and danced happily, and there were several musicians who accompanied them with unique Miao instruments.

The people here were all excited, and the young men were drinking and singing with the girls.

Zhang Fu was injured and couldn't have a party with everyone.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, he was helped by his brother Zhang Cai to go back to rest.

The eight Li young men could not refuse the enthusiastic invitation from the Miao girls and went to dance the Li ethnic dance.

Later they began to teach young Miao men and women to dance the unique bamboo pole dance of the Li people, and had a great time.

Late at night, the banquet continues

But it was no longer as lively as it was when it started. The young men and women who were in love hugged each other and sneaked into the dark corner to make out.

Older people are still sitting by the campfire and chatting and telling stories, occasionally taking a sip of wine or picking up a cigarette to take a sip

Most of the children who were yelling desperately before were sleepy and couldn't open their eyes, and some were already lying in their mother's arms and snoring.

But no one wants to leave here and go home to sleep

Xuemei couldn't bear it because she drank a few more bowls of wine and started to doze off.

A kind Miao sister-in-law lives in a bamboo house next to her. She helped Xuemei to her home and let her lie down on a bamboo bed to sleep.

Sleeping until midnight, Xuemei was awakened by a gunshot, and then she heard the whimpering sound of cow horns and the shouts one after another.

She rubbed her eyes and thought to herself: What's going on?

Could it be that Meng Lie’s people have come back to take revenge?

There was no one in the room. She stood up and walked out to see that Meng Tiehu and Liu Mengying were gone. The eight young people of Li were gone.

At the beginning of the banquet, Xuemei asked Meng Tiehu about Meng Lie's situation

Meng Tiehu said that Meng Lie and his people were no longer in the future, and they were probably leaving Miaoling.

He reassured Xuemei, saying that he and the three elders of Miaoling had already drawn enough people to guard several small roads leading to the ridge to ensure that there was no accident

Xuemei wanted to find someone to ask what happened, but everyone coming and going seemed very panicked, and no one knew the exact situation.

Later, I finally found some situations: a group of invaders of unknown origin were found under Miaoling. They were dressed in black, holding muskets and other weapons, and had killed and injured more than 30 Miao hunters who tried to stop them, and attacked Miaoling.

Now they are besieging the head man Meng Tiehu's home

Xuemei had a bad premonition when she heard this. It seemed that she underestimated the Tiger and Leopard Villa behind the Montamonlie brothers.

To be honest, she initially just wanted to help Meng Tiehu seize the position of the head man, and she did not intend to kill Monta

After eavesdropping on the backstage of Monta, she was Meng Jin and Meng Qian. After her own identity as a Silver Fox Hero has been exposed, she has no way out and has to immediately attack Monta and Sun Mazi.

It seems that she has attracted the attention of Tiger Leopard Villa. Eighty-most of the men in black were sent by Meng Jinpi to catch her

Although she is very skilled in martial arts, if she faces the thugs of Tiger Leopard Villa equipped with muskets alone, she may not be able to gain any advantage.

If you are not careful, you may fall into a big shot

When she was a robber, she had seen several brothers who were killed and injured by the muskets of the officers. It looked so terrible.

Of course, Xuemei won't run away by herself because of fear

She couldn't leave Zhang Cai and Zhang Fu who came with him, and the eight young people from Li, and at least she had to take them with her.

She stopped people from passing to inquire, and asked them if they saw those Li people. She asked several people in a row, but she didn't find out their whereabouts.

She suddenly remembered that Meng Lie must have hated her to the core now, and she must be able to get rid of it soon

If he really brought someone back, he would definitely not let her go.

Rather than taking the risk to come to her, it is better to hide in the dark and wait for them to come to find her

At that time, maybe I could see the opportunity and kill him unexpectedly.

She looked around and saw that no one noticed her, so she approached the Miao people's ancestral hall, which is the palace-like building.

She looked around the room, jumped, grabbed a piece of wood slightly protruding from the wall behind with her hands, and slowly climbed onto the roof

The bonfire in the open space in front of the house was still burning wildly. She stood on the roof and could see clearly the surroundings at a glance.

Things are indeed as Xuemei guessed

After Meng Lie left the competition site, he saw Monta's apprentices as soon as he arrived home. They had already found Monta dead in a cave and carried his body back.

Meng Lie has been traveling around the world with his brother since childhood, and the two brothers have a deep relationship

He hugged his brother's body and cried for a while, his eyes red from crying.

Then he picked up the knife and wanted to go back to find Meng Tiehu and Wu Xuemei to fight desperately, but was stopped by Mengta's apprentices.

They advised Meng Lie that Meng Tiehu must have successfully become the leader now, and most Miao people will obey the orders of the leader

They have too few people, and they will suffer losses when they fight hard now

Why not go to Hubao Villa to find General Meng Qian to help soldiers first, and then you will be killed and take revenge.

Seeing that they were right, Meng Lie took people down the mountain to Hubao Villa overnight.

The people in Hubao Villa are the former governor Zhang Yide's tiger and leopard camp. The head-on manager Meng Jin Pi Meng Qian

One of his legs was gunshot wounded while surrounding the revolutionary party. He has never been very nimble and must use a crutch when walking.

Therefore, Governor Zhang asked him to resign and specialize in managing Tiger Leopard Villa for himself

Zhang Yide plundered a lot of money, many of which were hidden in Tiger and Leopard Villa.

This is one of his three burial rabbits

Although Meng Jinpi is not an official, others still call him Mr. Meng Qian, and he himself likes this title.

When Meng Lie cried to him, he was leaning against a bamboo chair and smoking a big cigarette

As soon as he heard that he had found the Silver Fox Hero, he was full of excitement and immediately became energetic

The government has wanted her for so many years, but she didn't expect that she would actually hide in the village of the Li people. Now she appears in Miaoling and kills his capable general Mengtai.

A few years ago when the Panlong Bay encircled the rebellion party, if the Silver Fox Hero turned against him, he would not have been a lame one leg.

Mr. Meng Qian vowed to catch her and torture her day and night, making her life worse than death!

Over the years, he has been paying attention to the whereabouts of the Silver Fox Hero.

He told his subordinates that the Silver Fox Hero was the woman that Lord Zhang called for, and no matter who caught her, she would be rewarded.

The Silver Fox Hero back then was quite chivalrous. Everyone who saw her strongly praised her beauty and her strong martial arts skills. Therefore, the heroes in the world all admire her.

Governor Zhang did think about getting her into the mansion and acting as his sex slave.

However, Mr. Zhang has too many women. Now he probably doesn't remember who this Silver Fox Hero is.

But Meng Jinpi will not forget her

Now that she has her whereabouts, of course she can't let her run away anymore

The next afternoon, Meng Jinpi summoned the thirty most powerful thugs in the village and handed them all over to Meng Lie's command. He went to Miaoling to capture the court's retaliatory offender of the Silver Fox Heroes, and also avenged his brother Monta.

Meng Lie and his brother's apprentices had already rested at this time. He patted his chest and promised Mr. Meng Qian that he would definitely capture the Silver Fox Hero this time.

These people are all burly men, ten of whom are equipped with foreign guns, and the rest use big swords and spears.

Mr. Meng Qian is full of confidence because his men are well-trained soldiers. If they encounter resistance, they have enough confidence to kill the Miao people and surrender.

However, this time, Meng Jin, who always claims to be a little Zhuge, underestimates the enemy.

It was already late at night when Meng Lie and his team returned to the foot of Miaoling Mountain.

There are so many of them who want to go to Miaoling, so they can definitely not hide the Miao hunters who are responsible for guarding various important roads.

The Miao tribe is like a paramilitary organization. Usually, every household has to take turns to send people to the mountains and set guards.

Today, because of the special advice from the leader, they dared not neglect them.

Although Meng Lie is born and raised by Miaoling, the big men who came with him are obviously outsiders, so of course they can't let them go to the ridge casually.

In this way, one side had to rush up, and the other side stopped him and refused to let him go, and a conflict soon broke out.

Meng Lie is eager to avenge his brother, and he rushed up with the help of others. Both sides fought.

There were only five Miao hunters who stopped Meng Lie and others at first.

During the fight, two people were stabbed by Meng Lie with a knife, one was killed and one was injured.

The other three men called the police on the ridge while using bows and arrows to shoot down.

The arrows of the Miao people are made of a special wood, which is very sharp.

The arrow is also soaked with poison. After being shot, the wound will become red, swollen, and ulcerated, which is extremely difficult to cure.

Several people on Menglie were infected with poisoned arrows and were in great pain.

In a rage, they began to fight back with muskets, and soon killed all the other three hunters.

However, at this time, the sound of ox horns had already sounded throughout Miaoling. Meng Lie suddenly realized: Maybe he shouldn't be so reckless

In this killing, even if he can kill Meng Tiehu's family to avenge his brother, he may not have the potential to gain a foothold in Miaoling in the future

Unfortunately, everything is too late now. He made up his mind and forced everyone to break up the ridge.

Meng Tiehu also underestimated Meng Lie

He didn't expect Meng Lie to bring outsiders so blatantly to the ridge. After all, this is also his Meng Lie's home!

By the time he woke up, Meng Lie and his friends had crossed the most steepest mountain road and came to the relatively flat ground.

It's not yesterday's competition now, but a real bloody battle

Although Meng Lie has few people, he has the advantage of weapons. The power of muskets is much greater than that of bows and arrows. The young and strong Miao people who tenaciously resisted foreign invaders were quickly knocked down a large area, and Meng Tiehu himself suffered several minor injuries.

Besides, the eight young and middle-aged Li people, they had already felt a little excited when they failed to catch up with yesterday's competition.

During the dinner, they were all fascinated by the passionate Miao girls. They drank a lot of wine, and then each found a girl, hugged each other and hid in the bushes and went to me. Some even slept at the Miao girls' homes.

They didn't run out to check the truth until they heard the sound of gunfire and horns.

Because they couldn't find Xuemei, they had no idea for a moment

One of them suggested that since Xuemei and the head man Meng Tiehu stood together, they should help the people on Meng Tiehu's side resist those outside men in black. His proposal was responded to everyone.

In fact, they could have left Miaoling in the chaos, but Xuemei didn't know the life and death of her. If she went back like this, she would definitely be scolded by the chieftain.

Unexpectedly, after a fierce battle, three of the eight people fell under the enemy's swords and guns, and the remaining five were also injured to varying degrees.

The Miao people on Meng Tiehu's side were also extremely injured and suffered heavy casualties. Although there were more than 40 people left, they were obviously not as fierce as the group of people brought by Meng Lie. After all, the people at Hubao Villa are soldiers who have been trained and have been on the battlefield.

Meng Tiehu protected his mother while fighting and retreating, and finally hid in his home.

At this time, more than one-third of the people on Menglie's side were injured and nearly twenty people were left.

He had long been controlled by extreme anger and hatred, and had completely lost his mind

He shouted his subordinates to set fire to the house where Meng Lie lived.

The house is like other houses on Miaoling, and is made of bamboo and wood.

It was quickly swallowed by fireworks

Not long after, Meng Lie was holding his mother Liu Mengying and staggering out of the fire.

They were so smoky that they couldn't open their eyes, they coughed loudly, their hair was burned, and their clothes were already torn.

Meng Lie immediately rushed over a few people and tied the mother and son to the ground.

When the young people from Li met, they rushed over to save the people without hesitation. There were more than a dozen Miao people who supported Meng Tiehu, and the two sides soon started to fight again.

Although Meng Lie's people have the advantage, their foreign guns have been fired, so it is still difficult to decide the winner for a while.

At this moment, only a sharp scream was heard, and a man and a beast rushed from a distance.

The beast was a big black bear weighing three or four hundred pounds. It rushed towards the melee crowd with its teeth and claws.

That man is a disheveled old woman

Her face was painted with black and white stripes, like a monster that had just run out of the Hall of Yama

She waved a pitch-black wooden stick in one hand and a small flag with strange patterns in the other hand, and hummed a tone that no one could understand, as if she was chanting a spell.

When Meng Lie saw the woman, he immediately greeted the people on his side and asked them to retreat aside.

When the others saw this monster and the big black bear, they were so scared that they stood there motionless, as if they had been imposed on their body.

The big black bear ran closer, waved its giant palm, one by one, knocking all the people on Meng Tiehu to the ground

Then it opened its mouth wide, revealing its sharp teeth, and screamed loudly

That old witch is the biological mother of Mengtai and Meng Lie

She has been learning witchcraft from people since she was a child. She can not only raise poisons, but also tame wild animals.

Since her husband died, she has lived alone in the mountains, only with wild animals and poisonous insects, and no longer interacted with others.

Only her two sons would occasionally visit her in the mountains.

She doesn't wash her face or rinse her mouth all year round, and she doesn't go to take a shower, so she emits a strong smell, just like the wild beasts she's accompanying her every day

Usually, except for her two sons, other Miao people hid far away when they saw her, just like they saw a ghost.

This time she didn't know where to get the news that her eldest son Mengta was killed by the newly appointed leader Meng Tiehu, so she drove the big black bear to avenge her son.

Meng Lie was very happy when he saw his mother coming to help him.

The big black bear was amazing, and it only took one palm to take it, no one could stand it

Some people were so scared by its sharp teeth and claws that their legs were weak and they fell to the ground and couldn't stand up.

In a short while, Meng Lie won a great victory

He divided his people into two groups, one group of people was sent by him to search for the Li women named Wu Xuemei, and the other group of people were responsible for tying the captured Meng Tiehu and Liu Mengying into a long string with ropes, waving their whip to the ancestral hall to rush to the ancestral hall

He wants to reopen the clan meeting, execute his enemy Meng Tiehu and these arrested Li people in public, and avenge his brother Monta in avenge

He also ordered the onlookers to save the fire

These houses, including Meng Tiehu's home, will be owned by him in the future

At this time, the resistance on the ridge basically stopped

First, because everyone is afraid of Meng Lie’s monster mother, and even more afraid of the big black bear

Second, because most people are neutral, now the leader Meng Tiehu is captured after failure, and it will be meaningless to continue to fight.

The Miao tribe has always been the strong, and whoever has a strong fist is right.

Only the parents, wives, and children of those who were beaten to death were left crying aside

They cried, but they didn't dare to stand up and challenge the vicious evil spirits around Meng Lie.

This made Meng Lie's confidence soar. He suddenly felt that he was a great hero. From now on, everyone on the ridge could only crawl at his feet and obey his orders

When he arrived at the open space in front of the ancestral hall, Meng Lie announced loudly to everyone present: From today on, he will be the owner of Miaoling. If anyone is dissatisfied, please stand up and fight with him to the death!

No one said anything

Meng Tiehu and other prisoners had been beaten to death by Meng Lie's fists, feet, sticks and sticks. Now they can't even stand firmly, so where can they still have the strength to fight?

Although the other Miao people may not be convinced, they dare not come out to seek death at this time.

Meng Lie let out a happy smile

After laughing, he picked up a clay pot containing rice wine, tilted his neck and started drinking it.

After taking a few sips, the clay pot became empty. He was so angry that he smashed it to the ground.

Then he shouted at the women who usually wanted to respect the grandma and sister-in-law, asking them to go home immediately and take more wine, meat and rice to comfort his brothers.

Those women usually look down on Meng Lie and often joke about him.

Today, I was so scared that I didn't say a word, and ran home with my butt and prepared wine and food.

Meng Lie looked at their backs and felt very proud, and couldn't help but laugh again.

Seeing that his son had won, the old witch whispered a few words to him, and then left with the black bear.

She was anxious to collect the flesh and blood of those dead people, feed the insects and refine poisons

The group of people who were searching for Xuemei just now have returned

They did not catch her, but they caught Meng Sanmei, two injured Li people, as well as a few close relatives of Liu Mengying and Meng Tiehu.

They were all wounded, their hands tied behind their backs with ropes

Meng Lie picked up a wooden stick and hit the Li people in a head-on manner, pointing at them and scolding: You Li fools, you actually come to care about our Miao family! When I catch the bitch named Wu Xuemei, I must take off her and beat her hard, and let all the men in Miaoling come to fuck her!

That's it, he knew that Wu Xuemei was the woman that Lord Meng wanted. After catching her, he had to deliver it to Hubao Villa obediently.

But that woman was so charming, he planned to enjoy it himself first. He put so much effort into it, even if Lord Meng knew about it, he wouldn't mind it.

He ordered Liu Mengying, Meng Sanmei, and the wives and daughters of the supporters of Meng Tiehu who were beaten to death, and ordered them to take off their clothes and squat on the ground.

At this time, a group of grandma and sister-in-law came with cans of rice wine and steaming rice, and brought a lot of vegetables and wild flavor.

The three old men from Miaoling came with them.

Meng Lie's people rushed up and began to drink wine and eat meat

Meng Lie walked over with a sharp hunting knife in his hand and asked the three elders of Miaoling with a smile: Today I defeated the arrogant Meng Tiehu, I want to be the master of Miaoling. I need the support of you respected old men, are you willing to support me?

Support Support Brother Menglie, we all support you as the leader

No, I am not going to be the leader, but to be the master of the entire Miaoling! From now on, I will be born whoever I want, and he will die if I want!

Yes, yes! The three elders of Miaoling don’t dare to provoke this big devil now, so they can only nod according to his words and say yes

Meng Lie pointed at Liu Mengying's group of women again, and then asked: These bitch women will become my female slaves in the future, and their houses and all their property will also belong to me. I want to reward them separately to my brothers. Do you think it is appropriate for me to do this?

The three elders looked at the hunting knife in Meng Lie's hand, lowered their heads and replied: It's appropriate to give it to Meng Lie's brothers, Ah, no, it's their master of fortune who wants to reward them to anyone.

Meng Lie couldn't help laughing again after hearing this

Except for Monta's apprentices, the men in black standing beside him cannot be regarded as his subordinates, but the thugs of Hubao Villa.

Meng Lie's intention was that he could use women and property to win over them and serve him, and then rely on them to conquer everyone in Miaoling.

Those who are disobedient will kill them

There are many women on Miaoling, from young girls in their eleven or twelve years old to mature sisters-in-law in their thirties and forties. There are probably four or five hundred people in total.

As the owner of Miaoling, he slept with whoever he wanted and rewarded them to whom he wanted. Even the three elders of Miaoling did not dare to object!

Chapter 2: Gods and Mans Come to the World

The three elders of Miaoling didn't agree with Meng Lie's actions. He did this to break the rules set by his ancestors.

But Meng Lie is now murderous, and they dare not stand up publicly to oppose him.

There are not many people in Miaoling who oppose Meng Lie. Except for the captured Meng Tiehu and others, the others died, the wounded, and the rest were hidden.

Everyone knows that Meng Lie is a man with a bad temper and acts impulsive. They hide in order to avoid the edge of the situation so as not to lose their lives in vain.

Meng Tiehu was beaten to the point of blood, but he did not faint

He knew his bad luck was not over yet

Unexpectedly, he had just become the leader for less than a day and immediately fell into such a big frustration, which also implicated his mother, sister and many others to suffer with him.

He regretted not following his father Meng Chong's advice, giving up the idea of ​​fighting for the leader, and took his family out of Miaoling to make a living in a foreign land.

Liu Mengying's heart was mixed with regrets

She is a woman with a strong desire to dominate her husband Meng Chong and listened to many things when he was alive.

Her greatest wish is to let her son take over the position of the head of her husband, and then she can continue to take over the power of Miaoling behind her back

To achieve this goal, she did not hesitate to make any sacrifices

She even took the initiative to seduce two of the three elders of Miaoling and offer her charming body for them to play with at will

Her husband Meng Chong accidentally ran into her and the old man named Luo and was fucked to death by accident.

She didn't think there was anything wrong with doing this. She made great efforts when her husband was able to become the leader.

When Meng Chong competed with Meng Tai, if she hadn't been to the Trying with Meng Tai the night before, and had been in love with him for almost a whole night, Meng Tai would definitely not have performed abnormally the next day and lost to Meng Chong easily.

This incident was regarded as a great humiliation by Monta and has never been mentioned to outsiders

Of course she would not disclose it to anyone, including her husband

She hesitated for a long time between Meng Chong and Meng Tai, and finally chose to marry Meng Chong, mainly because Meng Chong is a more honest person and is easily urged by her.

Monta's personality is too strong and not easy to control

There is a bigger secret in her heart: Meng Tiehu is most likely Monta's son

Of course, she herself was not completely sure that she had slept with both men during that period.

Her original plan was that if Monta defeated Meng Tiehu and became the leader, she would tell Monta that he was Meng Tiehu's biological father and asked him to give way to his son!

Of course, she was unwilling to take this approach unless she had no choice.

She knew Monta's nature well. She could completely control Mengchong, but she could not let Monta bow to her.

Even if Monta agrees to give up the position of the leader, he will definitely separate a large part of her power from her and her son.

This time, Wu Xuemei made such a great effort for her and settled the powerful enemy of Monta from the beginning, which made her wish come true. Logically, she should be grateful.

However, she felt that she could no longer use this Li woman, and her jealousy became stronger and stronger.

She has always been the most beautiful and smartest girl on Miaoling since she can remember. She is very unhappy to let another woman take away the scenery that originally belonged to her.

What happened later is to summarize it in one sentence, that is, man's calculation is worse than God's calculation

Who could have expected that Meng Lie, who she usually doesn't like, actually hired a powerful helper and caught her and her son off guard.

There is also Meng Lie's ugly mother. I heard people say that her witchcraft is so powerful, but Liu Mengying doesn't believe it very much.

She actually knows witchcraft and can drive a big black bear weighing nearly 400 pounds!

At that time, the black bear rushed towards her. She was so scared that she was weak all over. She wanted to run but couldn't move.

A brave young Li tribe stepped forward to protect her. He waved a wooden stick to drive the black bear away, but was knocked down by the black bear with a palm, and then the body was penetrated by an iron fork that Meng Lie threw over, and blood flowed all over the ground.

He fell to the ground in pain and howled loudly until he took his last breath

Liu Mengying was so scared that she was scattered. She turned her head and didn't dare to see the painful expression of the Li young man before his death.

You bitch women, stand here!

Liu Mengying heard Meng Lie's roar

She quickly stood up and walked to the clearing in the middle with a group of naked women.

In addition to her and her daughter Meng Sanmei, there are also her sister-in-law and two nieces (her brother has been beaten to death by Meng Lie and the others). The rest are the wives, girls and sisters of the supporters of the dead Meng Tiehu.

Menglie had sent several of Monta's apprentices to copy these people's homes

He ordered all the valuable things to be moved to Meng Tiehu's house, where he will be his new home in the future

The fire did not burn too much earlier, mainly because it was smoked to smoke Meng Tiehu and his mother.

The fire has now been extinguished

He also asked people to beat drums and gongs on Miaoling to shout everywhere, asking everyone to gather outside the ancestral hall with torches to see how his new owner of Miaoling punishes those scum who collude with the Li people.

The Miao people fear all kinds of gods, and even more afraid of monsters and monsters

Many people saw Meng Lie's mother use witchcraft to drive a huge black bear to kill people everywhere, so they were afraid.

Except for those who have already been hiding, almost all the rest has come

Meng Lie enjoys the current scenery of a hundred responses

He directed his men to take Meng Tiehu and other captured men to the front of the ancestral hall and beat them with whips and sticks.

These people he planned to execute

He also asked Liu Mengying to play music, and then asked Liu Mengying, the three girls who were naked, to dance by the bonfire. Anyone who did not have to beat would be dragged out and beaten.

The three old Miaoling watched Meng Lie do whatever he wanted to stop him, but they didn't have that courage. They could only stand in the crowd with anger.

After a while, the dancing women were so tired that they were sweating all over, as if they had just been fished out of the water.

Meng Lie waved his hand and asked someone to bring a bucket of cold spring water and pour it on them.

It was early morning, and the morning breeze on Miaoling was blowing.

After they were poured by the spring water, they were trembling with coldness. Meng Lie and his group were all laughing happily

Next, Meng Lie told his men that each of them could choose one of these dancing women to enjoy.

Except for Liu Mengying and Meng Sanmei, the mother and daughter are the most beautiful among these women.

Because Wu Xuemei had not been caught, he was going to give Meng Sanmei to Mr. Meng as a gift first. He kept Liu Mengying himself and had other plans.

Today he would humiliate Liu Mengying in front of all the villagers in Miaoling, so that she would never be able to raise her head.

The thugs from Hubao Villa thanked Meng Lie very happily

As early as the way to Miaoling, Meng Lie promised them that as long as they could defeat Meng Tiehu, they would each get a beautiful woman and money worth at least fifty taels of silver.

Meng Lie first fulfilled his promise about women, and he was not worried about money at all.

Meng Tiehu Liu Mengying is the richest Miao people within a radius of dozens of miles. She has gold, silver, jewelry and other valuable things in her family.

Except for leaving six people to guard Meng Tiehu and other prisoners, the other big men rushed into the group of women, rushing to choose the women they like.

After picking them up, they carried these naked women on their shoulders and went to find a place to vent their desires.

The people around them looked at each other with wide eyes, and no one dared to come out to stop them even if they spoke a word.

Meng Lie walked up, grabbed Liu Mengying's hair, dragged her to a smooth and flat stone, and forced her to stand up.

While sobbing, she climbed onto the stone and stood up tremblingly, covering her breasts and the small area under her crotch with both hands, lowering her head and not daring to look at the person below.

Meng Lie raised the whip in his hand, whipped a few whips hard on Liu Mengying's naked body, and shouted loudly: Stand up straight! Raise your head and put down your hand!

She had to do it obediently

Liu Mengying, you shameless bitch, tell me! How did you use conspiracy and tricks to make my brother lose the competition with Meng Chong?

After hearing this, the people below began to whisper and talk.

This is almost twenty years ago, and this is the first time they have heard of it

Although Liu Mengying didn't do much bad things, according to her personality, it is inevitable to offend others.

Those women who usually don't deal with her can't help but start to sarcasticize her, and some even spit in her direction and throw dirt blocks.

Also, how did you collude with that Li woman and kill my brother?

Meng Lie shouted loudly

Every time he asked, he whipped Liu Mengying hard, and blood marks appeared on her butt.

She knew that resistance and argument could only bring more torture and humiliation, so she just stood on the big rock without saying a word

Although Meng Tiehu had been beaten to pieces, he was still awake.

Seeing his mother being humiliated in public, he felt as uncomfortable as a knife.

At this time, a Miao young man tied to him died of excessive bleeding. He only had an old mother in his family

His mother, in tears, asked the prisoners to take back the body of her son and bury her.

Those people looked at each other and nodded

One of them came over and untied the long rope that tied the captives, and asked the old woman and her two relatives to carry her son's body away.

Seeing that there was an opportunity, Meng Tiehu suddenly broke free from the big men who were re-bound and rushed towards Meng Lie.

When he rushed to the front, he bent down and picked up a stone weighing about two or three pounds on the ground, and smashed it on Meng Lie's head with all his strength.

Meng Lie's two sisters happened to be standing very close. When they saw Meng Tiehu's actions, they screamed in surprise: Monta!

careful!

Meng Lie's back is facing Meng Tiehu. If he is hit by the stone, his head will definitely be smashed.

He heard the screams of his two sisters, shrank his body to the side, and the stone almost flew over his ears.

He turned around and saw that the person who attacked him was Meng Tiehu, and he was furious.

Meng Tiehu threw out the stone before he could recover, but Meng Lie kicked it up and was kicking it on his egg. He twisted his face in pain, and he thumped his knees to the ground, covering his crotch with both hands tightly.

Then he was kicked in his chest, fell backwards, and his head hit the ground with heavy head

Fortunately, there is soil on the ground not stones, otherwise he would have died

Meng Lie rushed forward and punched Meng Tiehu, which quickly knocked him out.

He was not satisfied yet, so he pulled out the hunting knife from his waist and slashed at Liu Mengying who was standing there trembling.

She subconsciously reached out to block it, but she didn't block it. The knife cut off her two fingers and still slashed it on her neck.

Liu Mengying covered her neck and fell to the ground with a thud

Meng Lie only planned to kill Meng Tiehu's life, but did not intend to kill his mother Liu Mengying.

He wanted her to be his slave, to be humiliated by him for the rest of his life, to live in pain and shame, to avenge his brother

Now he decided not to do it, and simply kill Meng Tiehu's family, so as not to suffer endless troubles in the future

As for the Li woman Wu Xuemei, he guessed that she probably had escaped to Miaoling in the chaos.

Since she is Wang Laotusi's daughter-in-law, she can't run away. The monk can't run away.

The terrain of those Lijia villages is not as steep as Miaoling, and the Li people are not as fierce as Miao people.

Meng Lie thought that as long as they brought enough ammunition from the musket next time, they would definitely be able to kill it in Li Village for seven in and seven out, forcing the Li people to tie her up and hand it over.

Meng Lie sent someone to get the key and opened the door to the ancestral hall.

He wanted to count the crimes of Meng Tiehu Liu Mengying in front of his ancestors, and then impose the most severe criminal law on them: use a large guillotine to chop the bodies of their mother and son into two sections

This is a criminal law passed down from the ancestors of the Miao people, and is specially used to deal with those who have committed heinous crimes against their clan.

There is still a large guillotine preserved in the ancestral hall, which weighs more than 200 kilograms together. It takes several great men to work together to move it.

This guillotine hasn't been used for a long time

The gate of the ancestral hall was opened. Before Meng Lie could step inside, he saw a gorgeously dressed woman running out from inside, accompanied by a golden light.

He looked closely and recognized that the woman was the Li woman he was trying to capture, Wu Xuemei, the thief silver fox woman wanted by the court.

He opened his mouth and shouted loudly: Come quickly, catch her!

As soon as he shouted, a golden stick slashed towards his head. He couldn't dodge and quickly raised his arms to block it.

With a crack, his arm bone was broken, and a heart-wrenching pain came

Then he hit him again, this time he was hit hard on his back

Meng Lie was beaten so hard that he flew out more than two meters away, and fell to the ground and didn't know what happened.

The men under Meng Lie were shocked. After a while, Xuemei raised the copper stick and crackled again, knocking them all to the ground.

Only then did everyone see clearly that Xuemei was holding the treasure of the mountain that they Miao people offered in the ancestral hall, the brass stick handed down by the ancestors!

They all stared wide, and were so surprised that they couldn't speak.

Just now, Xuemei has been hiding on the roof of the ancestral hall, waiting for the opportunity to take action

Later, she thought that she had no weapons in her hands, and even if she suddenly attacked, she might not be able to gain much advantage.

The people on Meng Tiehu's side were either captured or scared to hide. She was alone and would never be a match for Meng Lie and the others.

In addition to the large number of people, they also had muskets (she didn't know that their muskets had become fire sticks because all the bullets were fired), and they also had to add an old witch who could make witchcraft and a fierce big black bear.

She hadn't seen the black bear yet, she heard it from other Miao people

So she quietly lifted the tiles covered on the roof, slowly took out a hole in the roof, then climbed onto a pillar with both hands and slipped down, entering the ancestral hall.

She quickly found the brass stick in front of the statue of her ancestors, held it in her hand and weighed it, and it weighed about forty or fifty pounds, just in line with her wishes

But the door of the ancestral hall was locked from the outside, and she couldn't open the door from the inside, unless she smashed it open.

However, if that would alarm Meng Lie and others outside the door, they would not be able to achieve the effect of sneak attack

The copper stick was very heavy, and she couldn't climb back to the roof along the pillar just now

I was anxious there, but I didn't expect Meng Lie to go into the ancestral hall to get the guillotine, and asked someone to open the door with the key from outside.

This gave Xuemei a great opportunity. She unexpectedly broke out of the ancestral hall and easily beat Meng Lie and those big men to the point of turning over.

After Xuemei defeated Meng Lie and others, she quickly ran over and loosened Meng Tiehu and other captured people.

Meng Tiehu's egg was kicked out by Meng Lie, and he was lying on the ground and moaning in pain.

Xuemei quickly asked Meng Sanmei to put on her clothes, and with the help of several women next to her, she carried Meng Tiehu and his mother Liu Mengying to a safe place.

Several Miao youths saw Meng Lie and his gang being knocked down, so they took the opportunity to pick up weapons and ropes on the ground and helped Xuemei tie up these people.

At this time, the two brothers Zhang Cai and Zhang Fu arrived with sticks and hunting knives.

The two brothers have been searching for Xuemei all the time this night, and have not participated in the fierce battle between Meng Lie and Meng Tiehu.

Although Zhang Fu was injured, he was still able to act, which was a great help to Xuemei.

In addition, the three injured and captured Li young men also joined Xuemei's team. Their injuries were not too serious.

After a while, the three elders of Miaoling also arrived after receiving the news. There were seven or eight young people following them, all of whom were Miao people who originally supported Meng Tiehu.

The three old men didn't care about being decent, and they came up with a handful of snot and tears, pulling Xuemei's sleeves and crying.

Thank you, Miss Wu for standing up for justice, otherwise, Miaoling would be ruined by Meng Lie, the beast Wu, who would help, but you have to help him. Don’t leave us alone!

Although Meng Lie fell to the ground and lost consciousness, his two sisters were tied up by everyone, they were still afraid of Meng Lie's monster mother, and they were afraid that she would drive the big black bear back to take revenge.

In addition, Meng Lie has more than a dozen accomplices. They had carried the women they distributed to them to find a place to have fun.

Miaoling is so big, it is difficult to find them all at once

Xuemei felt relieved when she saw that she had more and more helpers.

She ordered these new young men to collect all the weapons on the ground and guard the tied guys

In fact, these people were hit by the copper stick in her hand, either with broken arms or legs, and some of their heads were smashed to pieces, which no longer poses any threat.

As for Meng Lie, his spine was broken by Xuemei's copper stick. He looked like he was a lifelong disabled person even if he didn't die.

Zhang Cai has always been careful. He told Xuemei an important news that he heard: the bullets in the muskets of the men under Meng Lie were all fired, and now the most difficult ones are Meng Lie's witch mother and the big black bear.

Xuemei felt a little relieved after hearing this

While nodding, she patted Zhang Cai on the shoulder and praised him a few words

Zhang Cai was praised by his master and couldn't help but feel excited.

Without waiting for the orders of the three elders of Miaoling, several Miao sisters took the initiative to serve rice, pickles and bacon, and respectfully invited Xuemei to eat. Zhang Cai, Zhang Fu and others also ate some.

Most Miao people still gather near the ancestral hall without leaving

They knew that Meng Lie's mother would definitely come back to take revenge.

They want to know the final result so that they can go back to sleep with confidence

No one can resist his strong curiosity

Of course, Meng Lie's madness and tyranny have made him lose hearts on Miaoling. Now most people hope that Xuemei can win the battle.

Xuemei and her people were sitting outside the gate of the ancestral hall to rest

Meng Lie's witch mother usually has a relationship with wild animals, and her whereabouts are unpredictable. Even the people on Miaoling don't know where she will settle down.

But her personality is as irritable as her son, so she will definitely not give up like that

Instead of looking for her all over the mountains, it would be better to wait here for work

Xuemei had a intuition in her heart that this old witch was about to show up

About half an hour later, an eleven or two-year-old boy flew over here.

He is the grandson of the old man surnamed Luo from the three old masters in Miaoling.

He ran to his grandfather and said, "Meng Lie's monster mother is coming here, and there is also the scary big black bear with her!"

Before he could finish his words, a sharp cry came from a distance. The black bear rushed towards this side quickly. There was an old monster behind it, which was Meng Lie's witch mother

Xuemei stood at the door of the ancestral hall with her hands tightly holding her brass sticks, waiting for her

The black bear seems very spiritual, as if he knows that Xuemei is its main opponent

Its porcelain teeth grinned, swung its sharp claws and rushed towards her.

The onlookers had already dodged to both sides, leaving it with a spacious passage

Unexpectedly, the black bear suddenly slowed down and stopped calling, two feet away from Xuemei.

Under everyone's surprise eyes, the black bear slowly crawled towards Xuemei

Its movement is extremely slow, and it can even be said to be extremely gentle

There was no trace of erratic intention in its eyes

Xuemei felt strange. She put down the brass stick in her hand and stared at the black bear, as if she was thinking about something.

The black bear slowly moved to her side, gently rubbed Xuemei's thighs with her body, and stuck out her tongue to lick her hand

It licked and hummed in its mouth, as if it was acting coquettishly at its mother

Xuemei finally remembered: This black bear is the guy named Lark that Iuna and she raised. It also ate her milk when she was a child!

When they put it back into the mountains, it weighed less than a hundred kilograms, but I didn't expect it to grow so big now

Xuemei reached out and touched its head with joy, and called it lark in Liyu.

Seeing that Xuemei recognized her, Black Bear stood up and hugged her body excitedly, rubbed her huge head into her arms, and stuck out his tongue to lick her face and neck.

Zhang Cai and Zhang Fu and the people around him watched Xuemei and the big black bear intimately, their faces full of incredible expressions.

Meng Lie's mother also rushed to the front

She saw that the big black bear not only did not attack Xuemei, but became intimate with Xuemei, and screamed in anger.

She took out a black dart from a dirty animal skin bag hanging from her waist, and it was coated with poison made from her mixed human blood and centipedes and scorpions.

The poison is extremely powerful, which can make people's hands and feet numb and their minds in an instant.

If she does not take the decoction she prepared in time, she will most likely lose her life.

When she tamed the ferocious beast, she first used this dart to poison the beast, then locked it with iron chains and slowly trained it.

At this time, Xuemei had already raised the brass stick in her hand and tried hard to hit the old witch.

She was also unsure, and was a little afraid that the old witch would use some sinister means that she could not defend against, so she decided to take action first

Although this old witch is almost sixty years old, she is very flexible. Maybe it is because she has been crossing mountains and rivers all year round and being with wild animals.

She flashed her body to the side and avoided Xuemei's thunderous attack.

At this moment, she is less than one square away from Xuemei

She raised her hand and shot the dart at Xuemei, but she was not careful that the big black bear would slap her on the shoulder from behind.

She fell to the ground with a pounce, and of course the dart was shot empty.

Before she could get up, Xuemei hit a copper stick firmly on her head.

The old witch was beaten to the point of skull, her eyes were protruding, she lay motionless on the ground, leaving the world with a face full of reluctance.

Xuemei picked up the dart on the ground and immediately smelled a strange smell in her nose. She felt extremely uncomfortable

She realized that the old witch's things might be very poisonous, so she quickly threw down the dart, held her breath and took a dozen steps back

Then loudly remind the onlookers and tell them not to get close

The black bear also knew how powerful it was, and followed her to the side.

After a while, Xuemei felt that the poisonous gas should have been blown away by the morning breeze, so she dared to approach and check the old witch's body. At this time, the sound of the three old Miaoling speaking came from behind her.

All the villagers, Miss Xuemei must be the god-like person mentioned by our ancestors. She came to pick up this treasure of the mountain. The fairy sister is here to receive the worship of our fellow villagers in Miaoling.

When she looked back, she saw that all the three elders of Miaoling were kneeling on the ground and kowtowed to her. When the other Miao people saw it, they knelt down one after another and kowtowed to her. While kowtowing, they said, asking the fairy sister to bless us Miao family more.

The brass stick in Xuemei's hand is a treasure left by their ancestors to maintain the mountain. It is usually offered in the ancestral hall, and no one is allowed to touch it.

In fact, this thing is too heavy, and most people don't have that much strength to use it as a weapon.

According to legends from the older generation, the ancestor left a sentence before his death, saying that three hundred years later, there will be a god to take away this treasure

Today Xuemei relied on this brass stick to show her power. Not only did she defeat the evil men of Meng Lie who was in trouble Miaoling, but she also beat the old witch with great power to death.

What's even more amazing is that this fierce big black bear actually bowed to her

The three old men privately decided that Miss Xuemei was the godly man mentioned by her ancestor three hundred years ago, and she really came to get this brass stick!

So they led the men, women, young and old present to bow respectfully to Xuemei, asking the gods to bless the villagers who lived in Miaoling.

Everyone has experienced this catastrophe and especially wants to go back to the safe and stable life in the past

The three elders of Miaoling did this in accordance with the public's opinion and wanted to use the prestige established by Xuemei on Miaoling to appease everyone's hearts.

As for whether they really believe that she is the god-like man mentioned by his ancestors three hundred years ago, that's another matter.

Chapter 3: Bad news

What happened next unexpectedly went smoothly

The men, women, young and old Miao people love and respect Xuemei very much. Many of them believe in the fact that Xuemei girl descended to earth as the three elders of Miaoling said, "The Snowmei girl is a god." Others also hold the attitude of believing that she is not trusting her.

Therefore, Xuemei's prestige in Miaoling has increased greatly, surpassing any leader selected in the past

She successfully drove away the fear in their hearts

The young and middle-aged men actively responded to her call, picked up swords, guns, sticks, bows and arrows, and spontaneously went to the village to search for the evil people who had not been arrested.

But the remaining dozen thugs from Tiger Leopard Villa don't know what happened outside yet. They are still hugging the woman they have assigned to immerse themselves in the lewd spring dream.

The angry young Miao people quickly found them, rushed up, grabbed them all one by one, and then tied them up in front of the ancestral hall to wait for Xuemei to deal with them.

Monta's apprentices were either beaten to death or seriously injured. The rest of them were from Tiger Leopard Villa.

Among them were Manchus, Mongolians, and Han people, among them were the big man Bao Tiemu who had fought with Xuemei in a martial arts competition.

Tang Niu Tang Shoucheng and Zhu Yongxing were seriously injured and stayed at Hubao Villa to recuperate. This time they did not come with him.

Xuemei sat outside the ancestral hall and asked Zhang Cai and Zhang Fu to bring the prisoners one by one for questioning.

She asked in detail about the details of Hubao Villa, and the situation she got was similar to what Sun Mazi said.

Xuemei didn't want to kill more people, so she decided to hand over all these prisoners to the three elders of Miaoling, and suggested that they be used as coolies for the local Miao people for a few years to atone for their sins.

The three elders of Miaoling naturally agreed with Xuemei's suggestions

This time, the young and middle-aged people on Miaoling suffered heavy casualties and were seriously injured in their vitality. Many families need a man who can do heavy work

The three elders decided to share these prisoners with dead families as coolies. After three years, they could choose to leave here or marry Miao women as their wives for a long time.

A prisoner shouted and was unwilling to accept this arrangement. They pulled him out and beheaded on the spot. The other people immediately became honest and dared not have any objections.

That Bao Tiemu is an exception

He has been particularly respectful to Xuemei since he lost to the ring. This time he came to Miaoling, he had the intention of worshiping her as his teacher.

He was neither caught by the Miao people nor beaten by Xuemei with a brass stick. He was the only one who took the initiative to find Xuemei to surrender to her.

According to the customs of his own hometown, he crawled on the ground, holding Xuemei's ankles with both hands and kissing her toes with his mouth

He said that he was willing to serve Xuemei and made a poisonous oath that he would never betray her forever

Now the Qing Dynasty's rule is in turmoil, and it is even more difficult to achieve remote areas like Hainan

Therefore, Xuemei is not too worried about the government's wanted deal with her

But she had a sense of intuition: the existence of Hubao Villa was a great threat to her, the scheming and concise President Meng Qian was still there, he was her enemy

He also has nearly a hundred thugs under his command, and they have many foreign guns. It is unlikely that he can defeat them with his flesh and blood.

She needs to think of a way to completely eradicate the Hubao Villa as soon as possible, otherwise one day it may lead to another disaster.

Xuemei is using Baotemu to eliminate Tiger Leopard Villa, because he is familiar with the background there, and it is time for him to surrender.

Therefore, Xuemei accepted him without hesitation

Although Bao Tiemu can speak Chinese, he is not a Han Chinese, but a Mongolian

His Mongolian name is very long, and it is called Borjijin Tiemuer

Because he lived among the Han people since he was a child, his name was Chineseized into Bautimu

The three elders of Miaoling have asked someone to free up a house and clean it inside and out for Xuemei to live in.

They also specially sent eight capable Miao women to serve her, including the two young women who had previously washed and dressed up Xuemei.

They respectfully served Xuemei to eat her full meal, and used hot spring water from the mountain to wash away the blood and dust from her body, and then helped her to bed and go to bed.

Although this house is not too big, there are several rooms that can be used for people living in it.

Zhang Cai, Zhang Fu and Bao Tiemu are now Xue Mei's apprentices and are arranged to sleep in the room on the left side of Xue Mei's bedroom.

As for the eight women serving Xuemei, they left two people to sleep in the room on the right at night. As long as Xuemei summoned them, they could get up to serve her at any time, while others went back to their homes to sleep.

The big black bear lark is half squatting and half lying down at Xuemei's door, as if standing guard for her

Everyone still remembers its ferocity, and no one dares to come and provoke it

Old man Luo from the third elders spoke, saying that since this big black bear is the servant of the fairy sister, he should not starve it, otherwise he would be disrespectful to the fairy.

He arranged for people to feed it with cooked corn and other food every day to make it full

In addition to eating food sent by others, it will also go to the jungle's thorn nests to find ants, insects, wild honey and other things to fill its stomach.

Liu Mengying was seriously injured and she was taken home and she bleeded continuously. She died three days later

Meng Tiehu's injuries were not light, but his life was no longer in danger.

The first thing he did after he woke up was to come with the help of Meng Sanmei and others to thank Xuemei for helping him.

The three elders of Miaoling have already discussed with Meng Tiehu in private and asked him to recognize Xuemei as his mother and respect her as the Holy Mother of Miaoshan

From then on, Xuemei enjoyed a higher status than the head man in Miaoling, and anyone who disrespects her will be punished the most severely

As for the conflict between the Li and Miao tribes, of course it is not a problem now. Just wait for Meng Tiehu's injuries to heal, he will personally bring gifts to the dead Li villages to apologize.

Xuemei doesn't want to pretend to be a god, and she doesn't want others to give her a gift as a god.

But they insisted on doing this, she had no choice but to do so at all

Later she also thought about it, maybe this would be helpful to what she was going to do below.

The noble status also brings another benefit: those energetic young and middle-aged Miao people dare not be imaginative of her anymore and come to pester and harass her, otherwise it will definitely arouse public anger.

She put the brass stick back into the ancestral hall

In the eyes of those Miao people, this means that she will continue to stay and protect the safety of the villagers around Miaoling.

Therefore, they deepened their admiration and love for her

After more than ten days, Xuemei felt that it was time to go back to Lizhai to take a look.

After being out for so long, I don't know how my family is going

Although she doesn't have any unforgettable love for her husband, she still has family affection after sleeping in the same bed for so long.

In addition, she was not at ease with her father-in-law Wang Zhong. Although he had passed the position of chieftain to his son Wang Yi, he could not relax almost every day and was still worried about the affairs of the Li villages all the time.

Wang Zhong has always been very nice to Xuemei, and always protects her from anything.

Sometimes she even feels that in her heart, her father-in-law is a person closer than her husband.

She couldn't help but think of her biological father Wu Yuanji. If he could love her like Mr. Wang, how happy her life would be

Unexpectedly, before Xuemei set off, Mr. Wang sent someone to find her

The man was a nephew of Wang Laotusi, named Wang Tong

He brought earth-shaking news: Xuemei's husband Wang De has passed away!

After hearing the news, Xuemei's eyes went dark and fainted on the spot.

By the time the Miao women who were serving her on the side woke her up, her bedside was already full of people.

Including the three elders of Miaoling, Zhang Cai and Zhang Fu brothers, Bao Tiemu and others, even Meng Tiehu, who was seriously injured, rushed to visit her with the help of her sister Meng Sanmei.

They all had anxiety on their faces

In fact, they all have the same mind, they are all afraid of losing the pillar of Xuemei.

The man named Wang Tong who was sent by Mr. Wang to deliver the letter was also present.

He was also extremely nervous, afraid that Xuemei would have a short and long life.

Xuemei learned the details of Wang De's death from Wang Tong

Three days ago, the daughter of a Li family was kidnapped by an unknown group of people while chopping wood and grazing sheep on the mountain.

This happened to be caught by an old hunter passing by

He saw that there were many people on the other side and he could not fight them alone, so he did not make any statement and just followed them quietly

He saw with his own eyes that they captured the girl into Tiger Leopard Villa

Wang De happened to be at home. He was furious after hearing this and immediately took seven or eight young and middle-aged men from the village to chase Hubao Villa with swords, guns and sticks.

This is the fifth missing Li girl in the past six months. The four girls in the past have no clues so far, as if they have disappeared out of thin air.

It was already late at this time, and the mountain road was very difficult to walk.

Wang De's arrow injury on his leg has not healed yet. When he passed through a relatively steep area, his feet slipped and fell off the cliff.

He fell to his head and blood. By the time the people who were with him found him at the foot of the mountain, he had already died for a long time.

The next day, the chieftain Wang Yi took more than 500 young and middle-aged Li people to Hubao Villa to ask the owner of Meng Zhuang for the captured girl and seek justice.

As a result, before getting close, a musket in the village was shot, injuring seventeen or eighteen people

Wang Yi had to withdraw everyone back

Hubao Villa is built extremely firmly, surrounded by bluestone walls of more than two meters high.

There is an arrow tower every other section on the wall, and there are soldiers holding foreign guns guarding day and night

Unless the enemy also has foreign guns and cannons, it will not be attacked at all.

After discussing with his father Wang De, Wang Yi asked someone to write a lawsuit, went to the nearby Lehai County Government to report the case, and asked the magistrate to uphold justice and severely punish the criminals who forcibly robbed Li girls in Tiger Leopard Villa.

Unexpectedly, the magistrate received a generous gift from Hubao Villa, which delayed for more than ten days. Finally, he announced that there was no evidence and threw the lawsuit back to the plaintiff, which was not accepted.

Xuemei had mistakenly estimated the relationship between herself and her husband before

She knew that Wang De loved her very much, but she did not fall in love with Wang De.

She thought she would eventually leave this land, leave the Li village and return to the Han people.

Therefore, she never told her husband about her past, nor did she let him enter the depths of her heart

Everything between her and him will not last long

She didn't expect that Wang De's death would bring her such severe pain, just as half of her heart was cut off with a sharp knife.

Perhaps this is what people often say, only the lost things are the most precious

She felt extremely regret and guilt, feeling that she had harmed Wang De, maybe she shouldn't have married this Li people at the beginning.

But, what's the use of regret?

If she hadn't run away from home, maybe there wouldn't be the series of tragedies that followed. She might be living happily with her dear brother Yulin's family.

She couldn't help but remember that when she was a child, Yun Niang said that her father Wu Yuanji once asked someone to count her fortune, saying that her life was not good, and she would defeat men in her life

She seems to be a real goblin who harms men

As long as she is her man, she will not have a good ending. Even those who raped her will die one after another.

She felt more and more that she had harmed her husband, causing the old chieftain Wang Zhong who was very respectful in her heart to lose her son in her old age.

The cute old toast, now he is immersed in the grief of losing his son, and he is probably in pain.

Xuemei fell ill

At first, I was dizzy, weak, and couldn't eat

Later, I started to have a high fever, and I was slapped and talked nonsense for a while, and I couldn't sleep well all night

She lay in bed in a daze for more than 20 days before her condition began to improve

Chapter 4: The Master of Meng Zhuang

After Xuemei recovered from illness, she immediately returned to the Wangzhai.

She went to visit her father-in-law Wang De first

He seems to have grown a lot earlier

Then she attended the funeral of her deceased husband

Xuemei cried bitterly for her dead husband like a real Li woman. She washed her husband's body with clean water before it was put into the coffin.

She kept her husband for three days according to the customs of the Li people, and sang mourning with relatives and friends in authentic Li language, chasing the life of the deceased.

The villagers who heard her sad and sad singing all cried bitterly and felt deeply moved

The Li people have a strange custom, that is, after the husband dies, his wife returns to her parents' home to live.

Xuemei has no parents' home, and the people from the Wang family don't want her to leave, but she still chooses to leave.

No one came to see her off when she left because the people in the village didn't know about it at all.

Xuemei enjoys an excellent reputation among the Li people

In Wangzhai alone, several families prepared betrothal gifts and asked the matchmakers to wait for the mourning period to come to the door to propose marriage to their son.

Unexpectedly, she left without saying a word, which made these people feel sorry for each other.

Later, someone found out that Xuemei had a long conversation with Wang Zhong and Wang Yi and his son before leaving, but no one knew what they had said.

To outsider Wang Zhong simply said that Xuemei will come back in the future

He also said that Xuemei will always be his Wang family's wife. Even if she wants to remarry, his Wang family has an unmarried son, and it is not the other family's turn to

He did not disclose any other situations

In fact, his youngest son Wang Meng is only eleven years old, so it is a little too early to get married.

The young toast Wang Yi was also tight-lipped about the whereabouts of his sister-in-law Xuemei.

After Xuemei left, he summoned the top figures from eight Li villages to discuss the matter of dealing with the Hubao Villa, and at the same time, he also wanted to prevent them from coming to arrest the girl again.

The Li people only have bows, arrows, big swords and spears, and no muskets, so they cannot take the initiative to attack Tiger Leopard Villa.

They could only organize all villages and agreed on a method of contact with each other: use ox horns and gongs during the day and torches at night

Tiger and Leopard Villa

The owner's hall was brightly lit, and Meng Jinpi was losing his temper

More than a month ago, he handed over the thirty good players from Hubao Villa to Meng Lie, and asked them to bring ten foreign guns that they had just bought from abroad for a large price.

I originally hoped that Meng Lie could become the leader, firmly control the Miao people on and off Miaoling for him, and then capture the silver fox heroine Wu Xuemei alive.

Unexpectedly, he was indifferent to his departure, and there was not even a single person to come back to report the news.

So Meng Jinpi sent five more men to Miaoling to inquire, but they were beaten back by a group of hunters on Miaoling without hesitation, and two of them were also hit by the Miao people's poisonous arrows.

Now it seems that the group of people Meng Lie brought must be in danger.

The terrain of Miaoling is too dangerous

If the other party is prepared, it will be difficult to attack even if it is equipped with the latest foreign gun.

Those Miao people are as cunning as foxes and as flexible as monkeys. As long as they enter their territory, a poisonous arrow will suddenly shoot at you.

Without the people who are familiar with the terrain around Miaoling like Meng Lie, the resourceful Mr. Meng Qian could not do anything.

Now there are only sixty or seventy soldiers available in Hubao Villa, so he dare not send them all to attack Miaoling

Even if he can defeat him, he will not be able to bear such a huge loss.

Meng Qian always felt that he had a very bad luck in recent times. Not only did the Miao people not be able to handle it, but even the Li people came to the door.

In the past, he sent his subordinates to kidnap girls without knowing it, and he never disturbed anyone

Now the guys under him may be too careless and actually exposed their whereabouts to the Li people, allowing them to chase them to Hubao Villa to seek justice

Fortunately, the owner of Meng Zhuang was prepared and knocked them back with a foreign gun, and bribed the magistrate of Lehai County, suppressing the matter.

Otherwise it would be bad

Although he was very confident in the defense of Hubao Villa, it was a huge trouble to offend Miao and Li people at the same time.

There is also the government, he must try his best to avoid making a big deal of this matter, so as not to attract the attention of the prefect or higher-level officials.

If Lord Zhang knew about it, he would definitely scold him and talk about Lord Zhang Yide. Meng Jinpi's mood was quite complicated.

Meng Jinpi started to be a follower for Zhang Yide when he was seventeen years old, murdered and set fire to him, and dealt with shameful things.

Over the years, he has been loyal to Zhang Yide and is more obedient and filial than his own son

He had read books in his early years, was extremely smart and had great ambitions

Unfortunately, his father died early and his life was difficult. He had to give up his fantasy of taking the imperial examination and joining the green camp as a soldier.

There is only one mother and one younger brother in his family, and they still live in their hometown

He is usually very filial to his mother

It turned out that I hoped to follow Zhang Yide to get his praise and finally embark on the career path

This will bring honor to the family and fulfill my mother's wish

Unfortunately, in the melee of the siege of the party, he was shot in the leg and became a cripple.

Zhang Yide asked him to manage the Hubao Villa, and his career dream ended as soon as possible.

Although he is still Zhang Yide's most trusted subordinate, he is at best just a slave.

Therefore, the person he hated the most was the Silver Fox Hero Wu Xuemei. If she hadn't fought back at the last minute, he would have been in Chengdu now, and he would have been a guard even if he was not good enough.

The second person he hates is Zhang Yide

This immortal thing actually ignored his contributions for so many years and treated him as an insignificant slave.

He thought to himself, as long as the time comes, I must let that old guy know how powerful I am Meng Jinpi is

In recent years, he has been planning carefully to operate the Hubao Villa as solid as an iron barrel in the past few years

He selected all the managers in the village, and he was loyal to him only

Those loyal to Zhang Yide were all transferred by him one after another, or simply killed them quietly.

Recently, a message from a court official he secretly made friends with said that Zhang Yide had been impeached by several ministers in the court and would soon be removed from his post as governor of Yunnan and Guizhou.

Then it's time for him to show off his skills

He had already begun to think about how he should do it

However, he knew Zhang Yide's sinister, vicious and cunning nature, and he didn't know how many people had ruined their families by him.

Therefore, until the last moment, Meng Jinpi will not easily take the step of publicly betraying Zhang Yide.

Zhuangmao Meng, Bao Tiemu escaped from Miaoling, and a Zhuangmao came in to report to him.

Oh? Call him in! Meng Jinpi shouted loudly

So far, Bao Tiemu is the only one among the people Meng Lie brought to return to Tiger Leopard Villa.

Meng Jinpi was eager to know what was going on there, such as whether Meng Lie and others were still alive, etc.

Bao Tiemu limped in with the help of two village heads.

He was not covered in his body and was obviously injured.

He wrapped his head in torn clothes, and the blood penetrated, and it was now dry

He was naked, with scars from whips and sticks on his back and shoulders on his back and shoulders.

Meng Jinpi stared at his eyes for a long time, and then said: Thank you for your hard work, Lao Bao sit down and talk.

Bao Tiemu is still the same as before, not very good at speaking. Meng Jinpi asked him and answered him. It took Meng Jinpi a long time to understand what happened after they went to Miaoling.

Meng Lie is indeed impatient and panic when encountering problems, and is useless

With such a big advantage, he was actually overturned by Wu Xuemei, and later he even lost his life.

Bao Tiemu said that the people who went to Hubao Villa and the apprentices of Monta were killed, and the others, including himself, became slaves to the Miao people and were forced to do hard work every day.

He jumped off the cliff and ran back while his master was not paying attention while he was working.

Because he injured his leg and had no penny on his body, it took so many days to return to Hubao Villa

He told the battle from beginning to end, but unfortunately, after being captured, he was either locked in a dirt prison or taken to the mountain by his master. He didn't know much about other things.

Meng Jinpi carefully examined the wounds on Bao Tiemu's body, and nodded

He is cautious and never trusts anyone, especially at this critical moment

Bao Tiemu is an old man from the Tiger and Leopard Camp. Because he is not good at speaking, he was nicknamed Mutou Lao Bao by other monks. His words should still be credible.

Meng Jinpi waved his hand and said: Okay, Lao Bao, go down and rest.

He then ordered Zhuang Ding: Ask the kitchen to make some good wine and vegetables for Lao Bao, and comfort him. He also ordered the accountant to give him ten taels of silver.

Bao Tiemu bowed to him and thanked him, and then went out with the help of the two Zhuang Dings.

The next day, the owner of Meng Zhuang received a bad news, which made him very angry: a large opium restaurant and casino opened in Lehai County was destroyed, the money bills were robbed, and the house was burned.

The boss and five guys were all killed, but the boss lady escaped alone

According to the woman, the person who committed the murder was three masked men. Hearing the sound of his speech, the one who was on the head was a woman

This place has always been secretly controlled by Meng Jinpi, and not many people know the inside story.

He concluded that this matter must have something to do with the Silver Fox Hero Wu Xuemei, and it is very likely that it was her own actions.

She was once a famous female hero in black and white. It should not be so difficult to find out some secrets of Tiger Leopard Villa.

In addition to kidnapping girls, Hubao Villa also sells prohibited items and robs passers-by merchants

For this reason, Meng Jinpi collected many people from all walks of life in Yudong and Lehai counties, and specifically asked for information on him, including the delivery time and route of goods from various merchants, as well as the background of various underworld gangs, etc.

If Wu Xuemei was allowed to destroy the store under his control easily, the face of Hubao Villa would be lost, and other underworld gangs would probably take advantage of the situation to rob.

This is absolutely not allowed!

Thinking of this, Meng Jinpi immediately sent his subordinates to give a reward to the people in the martial arts world. Whoever could capture the Silver Fox Hero Wu Xuemei would give him five thousand taels of silver.

If anyone can provide her accurate whereabouts, she can also receive a reward of 2,500 taels of silver after being caught.

In fact, Meng Jinpi and Wu Xuemei are planning the same thing, that is, to force each other into a set trap, and then get rid of her once and for all (him)
