Chapter 71 Brothers
To be fair, this is an extremely fair price, especially in the cold winter, if you can give the amount of "three hundred kilograms per person", it is definitely a conscience price.
The obstacle I thought suddenly turned into a flat road, and the rage deep in my heart disappeared instantly. Even the irritable leader of Zhangpu Village Jianping suddenly felt that the young leader sitting opposite him looked much more pleasing than before. But he still had a little doubt and could not completely believe that this was true.
Tianhao picked up the two small animal skins they had written on the ground before, and held them in his hand and shook them: "Brother Yifeng, Brother Jianping, I respect you as seniors, so I give you this face today. But I have to say ugly things ahead: If there is not enough food, you can come to me to change it. If you are not strict in taking care of the village and the person runs out, you cannot blame others for the blame. Similar things will not be used as an example."
A warm and warm smile always appears with a stern warning: "Of course, I welcome you to come and drink with me at any time. Since the two elder brothers are here today, they can respect my Panshi Village. So, let the food you promised to be handed over first. If you come from afar, I should treat you well. Wait for a while, I ask them to clean up the place and then have a few drinks with the two elder brothers."
...
The blood on the floor was wiped dry with a rag, and the annoying turbid smell in the air was dispelled. Charcoal was added to the fire that would not produce smoke, and the fragrant meat pie completely dispelled the doubts. Although the cider was low, it would be intoxicating if you drank too much. The leaders of the two villages who were short of food and food rarely had the opportunity to taste it. It was rare to let go of their stomachs and drink hard today. They were soon stimulated by alcohol and their faces turned red, and they hugged Tianhao and called brothers.
When the banquet ended, it was almost dusk.
After looking at the two camp leaders who were sleeping in a drowsy manner on the floor, a trace of contempt flashed through Tianhao's eyes, he stood up and walked out of the room.
The cold wind blew his mind to wake up, exhaling the turbid air dull in his chest.
Tianfeng followed him, frowned, turned his head in disgust and looked at the two drunk men in the reception room, whispering: "Three, you don't need to treat them like this. We are the ones who are in charge of this matter. Even if we sue in front of the king, we will not lose."
"I know." Tianhao maintained his respect for his elder brother and smiled: "I did it on purpose."
Tianfeng felt it was hard to understand: "Why?"
"I've slapped them hard in the face, and I have to give them some good looks."
this is life.
"It is not wise to deal with two villages at the same time. Besides, Zhangpu Village and Qingyuan Village are both affiliated with the Leiniu Tribe, just like us." Tianhao kept as casual as possible. He noticed that a hint of uneasiness flowed in his brother's eyes: "This is a cruel world. Without enough food, no one can spend the winter safely. Brother, you have also seen that today's affairs are actually a conspiracy. Xiongkui holds a grudge against the last incident. He knows that the power of Huanche Village alone is not our opponent at all, so he brought the leaders of Zhangpu Village and Qingyuan Village to come to me to ask for an explanation. Humph... Even the people under his command can't be fed. What qualifications do they have to talk to me about these?"
"You want to kill Xiongkui?" Tianfeng blurted out this sentence. Did he realize that he was clenching his fists with both hands and wet and sticky cold sweat in his palms. Once a terrible thought takes root in his mind, it will be difficult to get rid of it.
"Why should I kill him?" Tianhao's thin face was angular, and under the reflection of the firelight, the corners of his slightly raised mouth showed capital sarcasm: "He can hide in the dark like a mole and spend the winter, but he just feels that he can use this method to challenge my authority. Haha... I don't look down on him like a waste like him. I originally planned to wait until tomorrow spring to attack Huanchezhai again, but now it seems that there is no need to be such trouble."
He spoke without hesitation. The two drunken village leaders lay on the floor. The wine is precious and not everyone can drink it. Tianhao, who has continuously invested multiple fusion points in physical fitness, has extremely strong ability to detect. He heard Jianping and Yifeng snore evenly, and it was impossible for such deep sleep to wake up in a short period of time.
Tianfeng swallowed hard a few times. He admired his younger brother very much, but his feelings were difficult to accept the facts in front of him. He sighed with melancholy: "Three brothers... you have changed, and you have become much better than before. I... to be honest, I feel that I don't know you, just like another person."
Tianhao put his hands on his waist, and the shaking firelight reflected a large black shadow on his face: "I can't hide behind you forever. Big brother, you don't know, you came back from the last time you were injured in hunting and scared me. Junping wanted to kill me and my younger sister to eat meat, you and my second brother are not here... I have no better choice. I must live like a real man."
Xiongkui's painful moan came from outside the room. Tianfeng felt that some parts of his thoughts that had never been imagined were slowly awakening. The younger brother in front of him looked firm, with a little familiar greenness between his eyebrows, but at the same time, he was ruthless and fearless of all hardship.
"Go and do what you think is right!" Tianfeng raised his hand, pressed Tianhao's shoulder hard, and his five fingers were opened and held it hard like a hook: "No matter what difficulties you encounter, I and Akuang are there. If you want to fight, we three brothers will kill people, and I will help you rush forward."
After saying these words, he let go of his palm and strode out of the room full of strong alcoholic smell.
Looking at his brother's back as he went away, Tianhao suddenly felt that the door frame looked like a blurry portrait painting, full of warmth and humaneness.
He smiled.
He murmured to himself: "It is still Taizu right: the so-called politics is to make more people on our side and less enemies."
...
A bonfire was lit on the open space west of Panshi Village.
Xiongkui brought a small army.
A total of three hundred people.
With the escorts of Jianping, the leader of Zhangpu Village, and Yifeng, the leader of Qingyuan Village, the total number is 335.
