"Mr. Xiang, it's me! I'm Fang Jin, your former classmate. We even went out for drinks together! I remember you had a pretty good alcohol tolerance. To be honest, among all these classmates, you're the one I admire the most!"

Fang Jin praised me for a long time, with a flattering smile on his face: "Mr. Xiang, you see, my family also has elderly parents and young children. Since we were classmates before, can you please let me go?"

Xiang Wenbin's name and appearance do match, but looking at his appearance, you can't tell at all that he is the leader of the disaster victims.

The man looked at Fang Jin in front of him, thinking for a while, then laughed and said, "Okay."

"Since we were classmates, it means we are destined to be together. How could I fight you?"

"However, some time ago, some of my men were killed in Mushan Village. If I remember correctly, Brother Fang seems to be from Mushan Village?"

Mushan Village is quiet, with only smoke coming out of the chimneys of a few houses.

Qian Fengping was making pancakes in the kitchen, and she had piled a whole basin full of them.

This pancake is a coarse grain pancake, the kind with little water and is dry. After baking, each person in the family hides a few pieces. They are all easy to preserve and can be kept for several days.

A few people discussed during the day and decided not to cook at home after today.

Many families in the village only cook for one meal every two days. Although they are not short of food for the time being, it is not good to be too ostentatious, at least not to reveal that they have enough food at home.

Fang Tong was not idle either, helping to knead and roll the dough.

In the room, Qin Yan was obsessed with teaching Fang Nanzhi to read.

He discovered that for every ten words his sister learned, his health value would increase by 1.

Many late nights, he could always feel a faint itch in his legs, which had been numb before. This feeling made him happy and excited.

Well, for this, he must be a good brother who encourages his sister to learn to read.

Although Fang Nanzhi is smart and has a quick memory, he is still a child after all. After the novelty of studying wears off, he still wants to play most of the time.

Qin Yan said with a stern face, "No, you didn't know how to read yesterday, so you have to make up for it today."

"Brother~" Fang Nanzhi stretched out her little hand and shook Qin Yan's hand, and said in a baby voice: "Brother, you are the best. I don't want to play, I want to learn archery. I think you look so handsome when you shoot arrows."

"Brother, you are the brother I admire the most. I also want to shoot arrows to protect my family."

After saying these two sentences, Qin Yan's mind was filled with Fang Nanzhi's magical voice and the brother who was his brother.

The little girl looked at him with her big eyes, saying how much she admired him. She praised him to the heavens and was so sincere that Qin Yan felt a little embarrassed.

"Okay, okay, I'll teach you."

Qin Yan was helpless, his ears turned red.

There's really nothing you can do against her.

"But you have to make up for the words you missed today tomorrow."

Fang Nanzhi achieved his goal and responded to his request casually: "Okay, okay, I'll listen to you, brother~"

Try to fool him first, and then deal with him if he fails.

In the backyard, Qin Yan picked up the bow and arrow and pulled Fang Nanzhi over.

Although he was still a teenager, he was growing up quite fast. He had broad arms. Sitting in a wheelchair, he stretched out his long arms to hold the person in his arms, and his other hand covered the chubby little hand. His voice was gentle.

"Here, hold this with one hand and this with the other, and pull the bow hard."

The young man narrowed his beautiful peach blossom eyes and aimed at the target.

As he said this, he demonstrated his strength and shot at the scarecrow target.

Hit the red heart.

Fang Nanzhi exclaimed, "I got it, I got it!"

Next time, Qin Yan planned to let her come by herself.

Fang Nanzhi followed suit, holding the bow in one hand and the arrow in the other, squinting his eyes like his brother.

Aim, draw the bow... huh?

The little fellow was halfway through pulling the bow when he ran out of strength and the arrow flew out of his hand, heading straight for the head of the second uncle who had just opened the door and was about to come in.

Qin Yan was so scared that his soul almost came out.

Fang Yin looked at the arrow shooting towards him and was so scared that he stood there in a daze.

The arrow pierced straight into his hair.

The three people present all breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Yan looked at Fang Nanzhi with complicated eyes.

Good boy, you want to get a kill the first time you shoot arrows, right?

Almost killed my second uncle for the sake of justice!

Thinking of this, he still felt a little scared. He immediately took the bow and arrow, and when the words came to his lips, he looked at them tactfully before saying, "Zhizhi...you are not strong enough, you can learn later."

Fang Yin looked up at the arrow on her head, then looked at Fang Nanzhi, pouted a little aggrieved, tears welling up in her eyes.

Fang Nanzhi apologized in panic and guilt: "I'm sorry, uncle, I didn't mean it."

She didn't expect her second uncle to suddenly come in from the back door, and she didn't have enough strength to get away.

The backyard could be seen from the kitchen window. Fang Tong, who was busy in the kitchen, saw it and hurried out.

"My two living ancestors!"

He muttered to himself as he hurried to comfort his second brother who was about to cry out of grievance. He pulled the arrow out of the man's hair and patted him on the back: "Okay, okay, don't cry. Your sister-in-law has prepared the meal and is waiting for you to come and eat."

Fang Yin paused for a moment, her face about to cry. "Is the meal ready?"

"Of course not." Fang Tong saw that changing the subject was effective and immediately pulled people to the kitchen. "Don't go back tonight. Just stay here. How about that?"

He had wanted to say this for a long time. Although the second brother was stupid, he was an adult man after all. Things had been turbulent these days. If there were really disaster victims breaking in, it would be safer with him around.

Besides, the fact that my second brother was eating at home could no longer be concealed.

It’s okay to just stay there.

As it turned out, Fang Tong's decision was very timely.

The village was in chaos that night!

Fang Tong was awakened by the sound of gongs and drums. Listening to the sound, it was the same as usual, the one the village chief often used.

I heard someone talking outside.

"It's on fire, someone come put it out!"

"Where's the fire?"

"The ancestral hall is on fire! The places where the victims are being held are on fire. The fire is huge. Let's go quickly."

When Fang Tong heard this, he put on his clothes and was about to go out.

"Wait." Qin Yan reached out to stop him and shook his head: "There are many people going, one more of us won't make a difference."

"Besides, I'm afraid there will be no peace tonight."

Fang Tong paused and said, "You're right."

There is no one living in front or behind the ancestral hall.

The fire couldn't have been an accident, so it must have been caused by someone?

Less than half an incense stick of time passed before the intense sound of gongs and drums rang out again in the dark night, accompanied by the faint roars of the victims, striking everyone's nerves.

This time it’s from the village patrol team.

"The victims are rushing in, and the patrol team can't stop them. There are more than a hundred victims rushing in. Everyone, hurry up and get ready!"

Suddenly, the whole village was in chaos, with screams one after another.

The night was still as dark as usual, and the stars were even brighter than before, so beautiful. But why did the round bright moon seem to emit a red light?
