Chapter 939

I still remember these two years in Wang An's past life; whether it was in the county town of DJ County or in the various villages below, incidents of trash people colluding to break into homes to rob money and goods, or robbing large livestock, would often happen in the middle of the night.

That's right, they also robbed large livestock; things like mules, horses, cows, sheep, and pigs were all targets for those trash people.

It is no exaggeration to say that that bunch of trash people truly felt like they were running rampant.

However, without exception, those robbed were all wealthy families; even families living relatively affluent lives would become targets for those trash people.

And things like blocking the road to smash things, or hiding in a certain place to attack from the dark, were even more common.

No way, it was like this before the big cleanup; it was like this everywhere.

It wasn't until after the thorough big cleanup from top to bottom that this kind of thing was continuously eradicated for many years.

So in this period, the importance of guns was fully reflected.

Because families with guns had a slightly smaller chance of being robbed; after all, those trash people were also afraid of death.

If someone shoots at them regardless, even if they use that kind of homemade sand gun, it's still a serious matter.

Wang Yi's personality, although not as beastly and overbearing as Wang An's, wasn't a coward either. Seeing Wang An hand over the gun, Wang Yi happily took it.

I have to say, men, regardless of age, probably don't dislike guns.

Seeing Wang Yi take the gun, while fiddling with it, he asked Wang An:

"Big Brother, don't worry, as long as those bad guys dare to come to our house, I'll shoot them to death. Right, Big Brother, if I really shoot someone to death, do I have to pay with my life?"

Wang An, upon hearing this, flicked Wang Yi's forehead and said unpleasantly:

"I said you should shoot if you need to, but do you have to aim at people's heads and chests? We mainly want to scare them, you know? If things get urgent, shoot at their thighs or arms; isn't that fine? Do you have to kill them?"

Although if he really killed someone, Wang An could find a way to deal with it, but it must be admitted that this kind of thing is quite troublesome.

Mainly because killing someone in the mountains and killing someone in the village are two completely different things.

Wang An's voice fell, and he heard Liu Guilan say to Wang Yi:

"Yeah, how old are you? Your murderous nature is so heavy. I'm telling you, Xiao Yi, that gun is just for you to keep in your room for emergencies; don't fiddle with it for no reason."

By the end, Liu Guilan had raised her tone, and it felt like a reprimand.

However, Wang Yi was different from Wang An, because Wang Yi was still very obedient, so after Liu Guilan finished speaking, Wang Yi immediately promised:

"Yes, Mom, don't worry, I definitely won't fiddle with it usually."

I have to say, people living in the mountains are just this fierce; the whole family, including Wang An, didn't feel there was anything wrong with handing a gun to a 14-year-old child.

At this time, Wang Dazhu, who was smoking on the side, suddenly said:

"Banditry is truly something that must be guarded against. I heard that a few days ago, in the old Zhao family's house in Yangshu Tun, in the middle of the night, people blocked their door and took away two cows, one big and one small."

"Xiong qu le" normally means "robbed," but in this sentence, it's not exactly the same as "robbed."

Because the five words "blocking the door to bully people" are a kind of robbery method.

Simply put, after a group of people enters the courtyard, they will send people to guard the windows and doors, not letting the owners of the house come out, and then other people will lead the large livestock in the courtyard away.

After the people leading the livestock are far away, these people will scatter and flee while cleaning up their traces.

The reason they clean up their traces is because many people in the mountains will track their own livestock, that is, follow their own livestock's hoof prints.

Wang An nodded and said:

"Yeah, we must guard against it, but our family has guns and so many dogs; I feel ordinary people wouldn't dare to come."

Wang An believed that with so many dogs at home, and with everyone in the family having a gun, even if bandits really came, the problem shouldn't be big.

In this day and age, bandits also have to scout and understand the situation before breaking into homes to rob. When they learn that Wang An's family are hunters, even if they know Wang An's family is rich and has many livestock, ordinary people will put aside the idea of robbing Wang An's family.

But nothing is certain; one must still guard against it.

After Wang An finished speaking, he heard Mu Xueqing say in a very flat tone on the side:

"So what if they come? Whoever dares to come, we'll just kill them."

Mu Xueqing's voice fell, and Wang Dazhu and his wife, Wang Yi, and Wang An, the four of them, all looked toward Mu Xueqing, and the atmosphere in the whole room instantly stagnated.

I have to say, although Mu Xueqing is beautiful, her personality is absolutely that of a fierce, authentic Northeast woman.

Just when the whole family didn't know what to say, Wang An touched his nose and said:

"Yeah, wife, you're right."

As he spoke, Wang An picked up the small wooden box and said with curiosity:

"Right, we haven't looked at what's inside this thing yet. Let's see what's inside, and then we'll eat."

After speaking, under the gaze of the whole family, Wang An opened this heavy small wooden box.

After opening this small wooden box, inside was a piece of cloth, but this cloth had been soaked in water and turned into a black color, and it had grown many black and white hairs. At a glance, it didn't look as pleasing to the eye as Wang An's rag.

Wang An looked at this broken cloth with a confused face and subconsciously retracted the hand he had reached out.

Mainly because this cloth was too disgusting!

Looking left and right, Wang An said to Wang Yi:

"Xiao Yi, get me a pair of chopsticks."

Wang Yi promised and ran to the back room to get a pair of chopsticks.

I don't know why, but Wang An suddenly felt that the things wrapped in this cloth might not be gold or silver.

After Wang An used the chopsticks to open the cloth, the things inside finally revealed their true appearance.

Seeing this thing, Wang An's eyes instantly narrowed, and his brows couldn't help but wrinkle.

Mainly because Wang An recognized this kind of thing; of course, accurately speaking, Wang An had seen similar things in his past life, but it was at an auction.

Just when Wang An was pondering how this thing appeared here, Mu Xueqing, who was sitting next to Wang An, couldn't help but say:

"Xiao An, this... this should be an imperial seal, right?"

Wang An nodded and said:

"Right, it's an imperial seal, but I don't know if this thing is real or fake."
