They were used to being tough on weekdays, and in a hurry they acted like they were on weekdays. When the Dong brothers wanted to come, they would have to scattered their own arrows, but no matter what, they still had seven or eight people rushing over with spears. When they really came to this situation, they dared not shoot arrows. They came to join, not to kill people. If there was any damage, there would be no more.

"...If you really rush to the front, we can shoot two arrows and then run and hit us. Our brothers will not lose to others with steel forks..."

"...How far can you go? Is your iron fork that is as tall as one of our people? Is it better than our spear..."

After all, both sides are not very polite, and they won’t really fight anyway. It’s always necessary to lose if they don’t lose.

As for why the five members of the Dong family came here, it was because the heavy snowstorm kept them from making their livelihoods. In fact, they couldn't hold on before it snowed. Because Huairen County was also damaged by the Mongolian horse team, the price of grain has been rising. Everyone has not much money and grain left, and the demand for purchasing wild animals and fur has also decreased a lot.

The destruction of Zheng Jiaji caused the entire Huairen County to suffer a devastating blow, and the sales of wild animals and fur were even greater. Therefore, after the Mongolian invasion, the Dong brothers had to exchange more prey for less money and food than before, and this trend was intensifying.

When winter comes, as the weather gets colder and snow gets heavier, they can't even exchange anything. After the first snowfall, the Dong family's food stocks are exhausted. The two brothers decided to find a place to join as soon as possible. Although it is easier to catch prey on snowy days, the possibility of not being able to catch is also very large. The Dong family is a third-generation hunter and has known a lot of experience and examples, so they dare not gamble. If it is really time to block the door with heavy snow, men can still hold on, and women and children will easily die of starvation. The two brothers agreed to sell a few good fur goods at home at a cheap price, and gather some money to throw them away from their hometown to find a big family to join.

But what they didn't expect was that it was not so easy to defect to. Even if they were sold as slaves, no one wanted it. On the one hand, the five people in the Dong family had two mouths for free, and it was not cost-effective to contain it. Secondly, the Dong brothers' hunting skills were not very useful. The most important point was that the Mongolian horse team's washing and destruction of Huairen County and the severe cold in winter made Huairen County and many wealthy families feel a sense of crisis. Everyone stored food as much as possible and did not want to increase the number of people eating. In addition, after the Mongolian plunder, the wealthy families who could accommodate refugees had already been fully accommodated. Now they had no spare energy. The Dong brothers were very desperate along the way. They also heard about Zhu Da's sheltering refugees. After hitting walls everywhere, they wanted to come here to try their luck, but they did not expect to have this experience.

Although it was almost dark, it could still be seen clearly. It could be seen that the Dong brothers were actually in their early twenties. The younger brother Dong Bao was probably just twenty years old, but because both of them had beards, they were not young at first glance, so they would have a rest after chatting. Everyone would clean up and prepare to go back to the farm.

When walking, the two brothers and two children in the Dong family were fine, but Dong Zhen's wife was very timid and kept hiding behind her men. The hunter life was much better than that of the farmer. Girls were often willing to marry, so Dong Zhen's wife was a bit beautiful. Such female family members lived a good life in normal times and were easily harmed when they fled. Twenty people here were all young and strong. They had conflicts just now, so it was impossible not to be afraid. The Dong family brothers were even more nervous and alert than before, and they all seemed to be at any time.

Of course, their worries were unnecessary. Ji Xiaodong and the others had no intention of seeing the appearance of the female family now. More than half of them were depressed and nervous. However, Ji Xiaodong and Zhang Jinbei took off their coats and put them on their children. Both sides rushed back towards the village. After walking half a mile, they saw more than a dozen people trotting towards this side.

According to the defense arrangement of Tianzhuang, if one team goes out, another team will be used as a reserve team. When Ji Xiaodong and Zhang Jinbei take the people out, a team of fifteen people in the village will start to take their positions.

At this time, the sky was not very dark, and Ji Xiaodong's team of people could also see the movements of the Zhuangzi. Although they could not see the details clearly, they could probably see them. First, they saw the scattered people running around, and then saw a small group of people rushing up. No one felt that it was peaceful. According to the rules set in advance, the small group of people who were in the reserve team notified the people in the village on the one hand and went out to pick them up.

When we met halfway, we could find that our side was safe and sound, which made everyone relieved. However, Ji Xiaodong and Zhang Jinbei were all covered in dust, and their ugly appearance of dispersing at the last battle was seen by their companions. And the news would definitely reach the master's side, so there would be no good results in the future.

The Dong brothers' faces are not good-looking. As long as they are not fools, they know that they have offended others. Thinking about whether they have come to join us, what kind of treatment they will encounter next is really unhappy.

"Don't be afraid, everyone who comes to join us is their own people." Ji Xiaodong said in a muffled voice.

This comfort surprised the Dong brothers. No matter how they looked, they made Ji Xiaodong and the others embarrassed and suffered. Unexpectedly, he could speak out to comfort him. With these two sentences, the Dong brothers' faces looked much better.

......

The two brothers and five had dinner with Zhu Da. They didn't expect that the owner of this farm was such a young man. Thinking about the combat power shown by the young and strong man in the village, I thought he could only be the leader of a hero in his thirties or forties. Who would have thought that at this age, he was not a few years older than his own children.

Zhu Da's attitude was very kind, and the supper was also very rich. Sheep bone soup and mixed noodles made the five members of the Dong family happily eat it. Zhu Da also gave a place to settle the house. The five members of the five had a separate residence. Zhu Da acted very straightforwardly. After comforting and promised to settle the house, he asked: "Can you two brothers draw bows? What bow do you use? How about the accurate head?"

This blunt inquiry made the Dong brothers feel even more relaxed, knowing what the other party needs, and knowing that their own abilities can bring food and clothing. Staying in such a place is more comfortable, and there is not so much speculation or anxiety.

"We brothers can all shoot arrows, and they use longbows in the army. As for the head, there is a lamb within fifty steps. Shooting ten arrows can lead to seven arrows." Dong Zhen, the brother of the Dong brother, replied.

If you are in other places outside the border town, hunters use hunting bows. This bow has a very close range and is not very powerful. However, in the border town, civilian households are military households, with some experience and even some training. It is much easier to obtain military weapons than other places. Hunters here often use military bows, and it is not surprising that they have a accurate head. As hunters, they often have to shoot prey in an instant. If they don’t have a correct head, they will have no gains.

Zhu Da nodded and said with satisfaction: "On my side, those who are capable will live a good life. You don't have to worry about food, clothing and expenses. I will give you what you should give, but one thing is that in my farm, you have to abide by my rules. If you don't follow the rules, you will have trouble."

These words were not good, and there was a threat inside, but the Dong brothers didn't care at all. They called their wife and children who were eating and came over to come. The five of them knelt down and kowtowed to Zhu Da. The Dong family, the eldest brother of the Dong family, said in a muffled voice: "Since we brothers come here to join the master, we will be the master's cow and horse in the future. The rules set by the master, of course the younger ones must listen to them."

Looking at the five people kneeling down and kowtowing, Zhu Da shook his head and laughed. He always felt that some things had to be greeted in advance, but he didn't expect that in the hearts of people of this era, many things were natural. Whenever he encountered such a scene, Zhu Da always sighed that in those twenty years of memory, it was natural for everyone to be equal, although it was not actually the case.

After several days of running around, I finally arrived at the farm and experienced the encounter close to the battle outside. The Dong family was extremely tired, but they were always tense. Zhu Da's words and the "sourcing" supper made the Dong family finally relax. Once people relaxed, they couldn't suppress the fatigue and sleepiness accumulated for many days. Dong Zhen and Dong Bao were still holding on, while the woman and the two children had eyelids fighting and yawning for the whole day.

"Brother Chang, the family of five is given a separate residence, and the food and consumption are comparable to the police in the city." Zhu Da made arrangements for Chang Shen who rushed over. The Dong brothers were not sure what these words mean, but realized from Chang Shen's surprised eyes that something was wrong.

"Your family will rest first. If you have anything to say tomorrow, we will go on forever, so don't worry about this moment."

Zhu Da's gentle smile made the Dong family feel that they had come to the right place and they were somewhat relaxed. Chang Shen took them to settle down. Naturally, they couldn't see that Zhu Da's face became gloomy after they left the house.

"Minister, the servant, the young and strong, everyone gathered in the empty field to line up." Zhu Da ordered a servant. It was already night and he still gathered to do something. After seeing Zhu Da's expression, the servant did not dare to ask more, and hurried out to pass the order.

When Zhu Da walked out of the house, he could hear a clapper sound in the empty field not far away. After nightfall, the quietness of the farm was broken and it began to become noisy.

Since Zhu Da took over this farm, there has been a curfew at night. Suddenly, he heard the sound of a clapper. People who knew the signal hurriedly lined up and stood by, and the original farmhouse merchants also came to see the fun.

If Zhu Da had any noise at night before he came, the shopkeepers would never dare to go out to see it. They often asked Jia Xiao to hide it and guard the door with their equipment tremblingly. Now they are used to quiet and peaceful. They know that Zhu Da is guarding the place, and no thief dares to do evil, so their nature of joining in the fun is naturally revealed.
