Chapter 14: Growth
Several people returned to the camp.
Liu Chang said to everyone: "Everyone has been running around a lot these days. Let's take a good rest for a few days."
Liu Chang thought for a while and then told everyone: "We have a horse here. Let's learn to ride it when we have time. There are some tents here. Let's help each other pitch them. Let's live like this for now."
Finally, Liu Chang said: "Let's all disperse. I'll open up the stew for dinner later. I'll bring more next time."
Gou Sheng said with emotion: "That relationship is great."
Everyone dispersed, and Liu Chang went to his tent and lay down. He has done a lot in the past month since he came here. He is planning what to do next.
San'er opened the curtain of Liu Chang's tent and walked in.
San'er said sheepishly: "Brother Liu, I think Brother Wang Ye's machete is quite good. I asked Brother Wang Ye and he said you gave it to him, Brother Liu. Can Brother Liu give it to me?"

Liu Chang thought about the Nepalese scimitar he brought to Wang Ye and said: "Okay, you can ask other people what weapons they want, and I will bring some for everyone next time."
After several days of preparation, everyone in Liu Chang was fully armed. Everyone wore inner armor and held sharp weapons.
Liu Chang looked at the group of people and said: "Wang and Zhao Wang, you two should still look after Mr. Huang and take care of your sister and Gou Sheng."
After a pause, Liu Chang shouted loudly: "We are out for revenge."
San'er echoed loudly: "I've been eating stew and white rice these past few days, and I've long wanted to go out and do something."
"Then let's set off."
Then, four heavily armed men followed Liu Chang onto the road ahead.
San'er suggested to Liu Chang: "I have made inquiries in many places in the past few days, and there are rumors everywhere that the old thief Huang destroyed Zhao Village. People are panicking all around. The old thief Huang summoned all the people to the city, and he also
There is a village quite far away from Liwu County, and I guess there are not many people at the moment. I heard that there are several horses in that village."
After hearing this, Liu Chang said: "If you don't take it, you will suffer the consequences; if you fail at the right time, you will suffer the consequences. This is our opportunity. San'er, you will lead the way."
Everyone trekked all the way to a village. The gate of the village was closed, and the courtyard wall was not very high. There were low houses all around, and there were dozens of people in rags surrounding the village begging.
Zhao Xin saw Liu Chang looking at those people and introduced Liu Chang: "These are refugees. They look like they came from the north. I heard that many people in the north can't survive."
Scarface said: "They are all miserable people."
Liu Chang said: "Which of you is looking for one of you? Come and ask."
Xin Zhao immediately replied: "I'll go."
After a while, Xin Zhao came to Liu Chang with an old man. Xin Zhao said to the man: "This is my young master. He wants to ask you something."
Liu Chang asked: "Are you from the north?"
The man said: "Yes, we all fled from the north."
"Can I get food here? How generous is this village?"
"It's not okay here. I haven't gotten anything to eat in the past few days."
"Are there many people in Zhuangzi?"
"It looks like there aren't many people there, maybe about ten people."
Liu Chang signaled Zhao Xin to give him some food, and Zhao Xin took out a piece of white cake and handed it to the old man. When the others saw that the old man got a piece of cake, they all gathered around the old man. They saw Liu Chang and everyone was fully armed.
He didn't dare to step forward. The old man gave a bitter smile, took a big bite of the pancake, and handed it to the refugees who surrounded him.
Liu Chang took the four of them to a deserted place.
Liu Chang said to the four people: "There are not many people in Zhuangzi, and the equipment is definitely not as good as ours. Let's take a rest here first. Do you have any ideas on how to do things?"
San'er said: "The people in Zhuangzi don't know us. We pretended to be here to deliver a message for Old Thief Huang. As soon as they open the door, we will go straight in. There are not many of them, so they will definitely not be able to react."
Liu Chang thought to himself that this idea was simple, crude and feasible. If he had no other ideas, he would just do it. He glanced at San'er appreciatively.
Liu Chang asked again: "Does any of you have any other ideas?"
Wang Ye said: "The wall of this courtyard is not high. If we climb over it at night, we can catch them off guard."
Liu Chang looked at Zhuangzi's courtyard wall and shook his head.
"No, although this courtyard wall is not high, it is still as tall as one person. We don't know what's going on in the courtyard, and our clothes are heavy. It's not feasible to jump over the courtyard wall."
Liu Chang looked around at the crowd again and saw that they had no new ideas. Then he made a decision: "Just do as San'er said. Let's take a rest first. If Kuang doesn't open the door, throw a gasoline bottle inside. Don't worry if they don't open the door.
.It’s just that I’m afraid of hurting the horse if I do this.”
After a few people sat on the ground and rested for a while, they arrived at the entrance of Zhuangzi.
San'er stepped forward and banged the door hard. Soon a shout came from inside: "Who is it?"
"It's not very stable these days. Mr. Huang asked me to come over and give you some things."
Immediately afterwards, the door opened. A middle-aged man poked his head out.
"Hey, isn't it Huang Ping who always delivers things? Why haven't I seen you?"
San'er didn't say anything anymore. He kicked him down, pulled out his machete and slashed him. Then all four of them rushed in from the gate.
Several people rushed into the village. No one in the village expected that someone would come in, and none of them had weapons.
Immediately afterwards, bursts of shouts of killing came from the village. After a while, the shouts of killing gradually disappeared.
Finally, the sound of horse hooves was heard from the gate of Zhuangzi, and five men covered in blood rushed out of the gate with seven or eight horses.
Liu Chang looked at the refugees near Zhuangzi and shouted loudly: "There are no more people from the Huang family in this Zhuangzi. You can take the food and property inside for yourselves. Take something to survive."
After Liu Chang finished speaking, he led a few people on horseback and galloped away. Basically all the refugees and poor people near Zhuangzi rushed into Zhuangzi.
Only a boy of 18 or 19 shouted: "Everyone, I may go with you."
On a whim, Wang Ye shouted to the boy: "Follow me. If you can keep up, we will take you with us."
The young man ran with everyone's horses. After a long time, Liu Chang stopped the horse, and everyone stopped immediately.
Wang Ye looked at the running and panting young man and asked: "What a good boy, what is your name?"
The young man said intermittently: "My name is Bai Rao, and I want to follow all the heroes."
Liu Chang looked at Bai Yao and said, "Then just follow us."
San'er said: "Why don't you meet Brother Liu soon?"
Bai Rao knelt down and said, "Greetings to Brother Liu."
