After about a quarter of an hour, Liu Pi carried a deer into the temple hall. Liu Pi, wearing armor and holding a long sword, walked into the hall and couldn't help but aroused the fear of the women. At this time, Liu Ji quickly shouted loudly: "Don't panic, everyone, you are your own people! This is your own people!"

Liu Pi threw the deer on his shoulder to the ground and smiled at Liu Ji and said, "Lord, you're lucky. In such a desolate place, you didn't go far and you ran into this deer. It was at least 120 kilograms. It's enough for everyone here to eat a few meals!"

Liu Ji couldn't help swallowing his saliva and said loudly to the women: "Everyone, help me quickly, deal with this deer, and then we will eat barbecue!"

"Thank you, Mr. Liu, thank you, this hero!" The deer, which was originally dead, suddenly became joyful, and even the children did not cry.

Soon, 6 were separated from the 11 women in the hall and surrounded the deer. Three of them took out a short knife from somewhere and began to peel the deer. The remaining five women coaxed 12 children.

When Liu Pi saw the woman dealing with the deer that was shot to death by him, he did not go to help, but said to Liu Ji: "Lord, bandits and bandits in this area are rampant. Please take a look nearby first to prevent any accidents."

At this time, Liu Ji's attention was shifted to the sika deer. When he heard Liu Pi's words, Liu Ji swallowed his saliva and thought for a moment and said, "Liu Pi, our deserted temple here should have a good view. Just go outside and take a look. Don't go too far. The roasted venison can be done in a while. Moreover, there are women and children here. If there is any situation, you still need to hold the team here!"

"As for orders, lord!"

Liu Niu Niu looked at Liu Pi's back walking out of the hall and asked Liu Ji in a slight voice: "Brother, what does that uncle mean by calling you a lord? Isn't my brother's name Liu Ji? He doesn't call him a lord!"

"This, the lord is a kind of honorable title. Uncle Liu Pi will be his brother's family in the future, so he calls his brother the lord."

"Oh--Is it my brother and Uncle Liu Pi like my father and Uncle Tie in the future?"

"Well, it's basically the same. Niu Niu is so smart."

"Hehe, then there will be one more person to play with Niu Niu from now on."

The women quickly processed the deer, then cut almost a quarter of the venison into pieces, skewed them with dead branches, and put them on the bonfire to start grilling. Wang Jinfeng also took out a small piece of salt stone and carefully smeared each piece of venison.

Although salt stone has a very bitter taste, it is salt after all, which can make people replenish some salt. Many poor people in the Jin Dynasty could not afford to buy salt, so they used cheap salt stones to replace salt. The salt stone in Wang Jinfeng's hand was the only remaining salt among the fleeing group.

Originally, when Liu Ji's father took this group of people to escape, he still carried a lot of things. Unfortunately, in the encounter with a small group of bandits, they fled and fought while fighting. The things they carried were basically lost and they did not even leave a single pot.

Soon the entire temple hall was filled with the smell of barbecue, "Brother, it smells so good!" Liu Niu Niu stared at the barbecue on the bonfire.

"Miss Niu Niu, wait a little longer, and it will be baked in a while." Wang Jinfeng, who was flipping through the branches, said to Liu Niu Niu with a smile on his face.

Liu Ji swallowed again, "Niu Niu, hold on for a while, the meat must be roasted before it can be eaten!"

"Brother, don't forget to leave some barbecue for dad and uncle Tie!"

Liu Ji immediately said to Wang Jinfeng: "Aunt Wang, the venison meat is roasted. Leave some for my father and the others, and everyone will share the rest."

"Well, Mr. Liu, don't worry, the roasted venison is enough for all of us to eat. The remaining venison is enough for us to last a few days. Unfortunately, our iron pot is gone, otherwise we can still use deer bones to make a pot of soup."

The venison on the bonfire had not been completely roasted. At this time, Liu Pi rushed into the hall, "Lord, there are a few people holding weapons coming to us. My subordinates cannot be sure whether it is Mr. Liu and the others."

When Liu Ji heard this, he frowned and put his sister on the haystack. "Niu Niu, I'm waiting here to eat barbecue. My brother goes out to see if my father and Uncle Tie are back."

Liu Ji prayed in his heart that it would be best if his father Liu Hao and Uncle Tie came back, and the other women in the hall became nervous and gathered the children around Liu Niu Niu. Then the woman with a short knife held the short knife in her hand, and the woman without a short knife also picked up the wooden stick.

Liu Ji held the short blade in his hand and followed Liu Pi to the outside of the temple hall with a nervous look on his face. Then the tension on Liu Ji's face disappeared. Several people who were not far from the temple were Liu Hao, Uncle Tie, and others who were looking for food.

Liu Hao was carrying a bulging cloth bag on his back, and Liu Tie was carrying a dead dog on his shoulder. One young man was carrying a big iron pot on his back, and one young man was wearing an open cloth bag on his shoulder, revealing a stack of large pottery bowls inside.

Liu Hao, Liu Tie and four other young and strong men saw Liu Pi suddenly appearing next to Liu Ji, and immediately raised the weapon in his hand and walked towards Liu Ji and Liu Pi with great vigilance.

Among the six people, except for Liu Hao and Liu Tie who had a waist knife, the other four young and strong men were holding wooden sticks, while the other two were holding a kitchen knife.

"Dad, you are back! This is a hero I have saved before, named Liu Pi. In order to repay my kindness, I went to my hometown to find me. I learned that our family went to Yongzhou to seek relatives, and then I followed him here all the way. I am willing... willing to protect us to Qi County." Seeing the alert expressions of his father Liu Hao and others, Liu Ji quickly explained Liu Pi's identity, but Liu Ji did not say that Liu Pi was already his subordinate.

But as soon as Liu Ji finished speaking, Liu Pi clasped his fists to Liu Hao and said, "Liu Pi has seen Mr. Liu. The lord has saved Liu Pi. Liu Pi has already devoted himself to the lord's name."

Liu Hao and Liu Tie looked at each other at this time, and both showed a look of surprise. They never knew who Liu Ji had saved his life. Moreover, looking at Liu Pi's momentum and equipment, his martial arts must be quite good. Especially the iron armor on Liu Pi was made of a combination of iron plates and fish-scale iron sheets, which was worth at least one or two hundred taels of silver. Among the army of the Great Jin Dynasty, at least it was necessary to reach the level of the captain and Sima to equip such general-level iron armor with very good defense and flexibility.

Liu Pi's outfit made Liu Hao frown slightly.

"Xiao Ji, when did you save this hero's life? Why don't you know?"

"Dad, I saved Liu Pi while studying in a private school in the county."

Although his father Liu Hao had never studied, he sent Liu Ji to a private school in the county since he was a child. Liu Ji used the excuse of his family's understanding of him during the county, and explained his life-saving grace to Liu Pi.

Liu Hao suddenly realized and said, "I said, why don't I know? Xiao Ji, why haven't you told your father?"

"Dad, let alone anything else. Liu Pi just hunted a fat deer, and now some of the venison is almost baked."

"What are you waiting for? Your father is almost starving to death! This time we have gained a lot. Not only did we kill a wild dog, but we also found more than a dozen kilograms of millet and a pot in an abandoned village." Liu Hao shouted while leading the way into the temple hall, but Liu Hao inadvertently gave Liu Tie next to him a look.

Liu Hao had many questions about Liu Pi who suddenly appeared. You must know that even if he had life-saving grace, he would not be able to directly surrender to his family. Moreover, the partner he defected to was his nerdy son. Liu Hao knew very well what his son looked like and how could he have the ability to let someone like Liu Pi take the initiative to surrender?

There will be evil when something abnormal happens. Although Liu Hao doesn't know what Liu Pi wants to do, he is already deeply wary of Liu Pi. Liu Tie next to him saw Liu Hao's eyes, and there was no expression on his face, but his eyes inadvertently glanced at Liu Pi.
