40 Chapter 40 Stratagem

looked at his father's look of disbelief, and said again: "Yes, it's an elite disciple." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 info That's why the old man respects her, so I was allowed to go home and save my family. ”

"Good! Good! All right! I can't imagine that my son of Qiu Qingshan is already an elite disciple of Tianyuan Sect, it is really the blessing of my Qiu Qingshan, the blessing of Qiujiazhuang! Hearing his son's affirmative answer again, Qiu Qingshan no longer doubted it, and called hello three times in a row, looking relieved.

"Father, let's go down first. There are my brothers and sisters waiting below. Qiu Ning also reminded a little smugly.

"That's right! Right! Right! Look, I'm glad I forgot. Go down, go down, go down right now. Qiu Qingshan was reminded by Qiu Ning's reminder and immediately came back to his senses, and replied with an excited smile.

Almost half an hour later, in the largest and most magnificent room in Qiujiazhuang, Qiu Qingshan, Qiu Qinghe, Qiu Ning, Zhang Yi, Anna, Caesar and others sat down as guests, and Qiu Ning also introduced both sides, so both sides knew each other.

In the room, Qiu Ning's mother did not sit at the table, because she also knew that she was a guest of honor from Tianyuan Sect today, and her own son had also returned, so she went directly to the back kitchen with joy and went to cook for everyone in person.

"Uncle Qiu, have you been coming from outside Zhuangzi often lately?" Caesar asked as he finished chewing on a piece of mutton, lifted his little head slightly.

Qiu Ning and Zhang Yi were a little unaware of this little junior brother, and at the same time a little inexplicable, the two glanced at each other and looked at Qiu Qingshan like Caesar, and instinctively wanted to get an answer from Qiu Qingshan.

"Hehe... Why did Caesar's little brother ask such a question? Although Qiu Qingshan was also asked by Caesar to be a little unsure, but there was still a warm smile on his face, he heard Qiu Ning say that this young man who was twice as young as his own son was also an elite disciple, so he didn't dare to slack off in the slightest.

"Because there are many horseshoe prints outside the Zhuangzi, it seems that there are thousands of them, but it seems that these horseshoe prints are not seen in the Zhuangzi." Caesar tore another piece of mutton and said crisply.

After hearing Caesar's words, the two brothers Qiu Qingshan and Qiu Qinghe, whose faces were originally smiling kindly, suddenly froze, first, they didn't expect that this boy, who was no more than ten years old, would observe so carefully, and secondly, because they thought that they would have to pay the New Year's allowance to the horse gang tomorrow, so the two of them didn't know whether to talk about the current situation of Qiujiazhuang for a while.

At the same time, Zhang Yi, Qiu Ning and the others also noticed the changes in the expressions of Qiu Qingshan and Qiu Qinghe, and Qiu Ning faintly heard some of the meanings in the words of his little junior brother.

"Hehe... Little Brother Caesar is really observant. It's true that a lot of people are here today. The reason why I saw those horseshoe prints in Zhuangzi is because those people who came today are horse bandits of the horse gang. Qiu Qingshan thought for a while and then said. Because even if you don't say it, tomorrow the jute seeds of the Ma Gang will come to urge the annual payment of silver taels, Qiu Ning and the others will still know.

"The caravan... Horse bandits...? Father, second uncle, what's going on? I came back once five years ago, how come I haven't heard of this caravan? Qiu Ning's heart tightened, and he immediately urged.

"Hey, Ning'er, don't you know that in the past three years, our Qiujiazhuang has to pay tribute to the Ma Gang every year, and the annual payment for a year is 5,000 taels of silver. Besides, this horse gang only existed three years ago..."Qiu Ning's second uncle, that Qiu Qinghe, recounted the whole story with an angry and helpless face.

"Humph! Horse bandits are rampant, so don't you care about the city guards of Dayan City? Qiu Ning slapped his palm heavily on the table, and snorted directly with a gloomy face.

"Hey, Ning'er, Lord City Guard didn't care, two years ago, Lord City Guard sent troops to encircle and suppress the horse gang, but the result was that someone had already sent a message to the horse gang, but the encirclement and suppression failed, but ended up being ambushed, and the city guard Lord was also seriously injured and returned, speaking of which, the city guard Lord was also unlucky, and soon after he came to Dayan City, he ran into this horse gang that was the victim." Qiu Qingshan sighed and explained.

"Why isn't the city guard of our Dayan City Uncle Bei now?" Qiu Ning asked, after all, it was with the city guard of Dayan City, Pei Chongguang, that Qiu Ning entered the Tianyuan Sect, so he did not forget this knowledge and recommendation, and he only said angry words when he was angry just now.

"Your Uncle Bei was promoted to the deputy county guard of Jiangdu County three years ago, and he is no longer in Dayan City. The current city guard of Dayan City is called Lu Youwei. By the way, Ning'er, how is your cultivation now? Qiu Qingshan asked Qiu Ning with hesitation and expectation.

"I am now at the peak of the Little Heaven Rank Realm, and I should be able to break through to the Middle Heaven Rank in a year at most. What's wrong father? Qiu Ning asked a little puzzled.

"Uncle Qiu must want us to deal with the horse gang. Just now, Uncle Qiu Er said that the cultivation of the big leader of the horse gang seems to be the middle heaven position, and the eighty-four leaders of it are all the cultivation of the small heaven position. So if we have a monk of the Middle Heaven here, Uncle Qiu is going to fight the Horse Gang, right? Caesar spoke again.

Hearing this, Qiu Qingshan was suddenly stunned again, and said faintly in his heart: "What a discerning little boy!" ”

"Haha... Little Brother Caesar really got it right. That's exactly what it means. Qiu Qingshan also replied with a fist very simply. I didn't treat the little boy in front of me as a child at all.

At the same time, Zhang Yi and all the inner disciples who came out with Qiu Ning also secretly praised themselves, this little junior brother, and they actually knew the meaning of Qiu Qingshan's words at once.

"It just so happens that our Senior Brother Zhang is a monk who has just stepped into the Middle Heaven Rank, but Uncle Qiu Er also said just now that there are nearly 10,000 horse bandits in the horse gang. I don't think we'll be enough to kill the bandits. Caesar tore another piece of mutton without hurry, and then replied.

"Then shall we have to pay the money to the bandits?" Qiu Ning said with an indignant face before Caesar could finish speaking.

"Senior Brother Qiu, wait for the little junior brother to finish speaking? Little junior brother, go on? Zhang Yi was worthy of being one of the more stable of the elite disciples of Mingyue Pavilion, and he naturally saw that his little junior disciple still had something to say behind him, so he immediately stopped Qiu Ning, who was angry.

Caesar was not in a hurry to speak immediately, but after eating the piece of mutton that he had just torn, he looked around at the people who were all looking at him, and said with a calm and relaxed look: "Tomorrow, won't the three masters of the horse gang still have to bring people to urge the annual payment, we can do this, like this, and then like this..."

Everyone listened with their ears pricked up, and the more everyone listened, the more feasible they felt, and even at the end, Qiu Ning couldn't help but praise: "Haha... Little junior brother, it's so right to bring you this time. ”

"Haha... Yes, I can't imagine that Caesar's little brother is so strategicistic at a young age, and he will definitely be a general in the future. Second brother, you immediately order someone, and prepare according to what Caesar's little brother said. Qiu Qingshan also furrowed his brows, and laughed with relief.

The next day, the western sky was covered with an orange sunset, red and bright, like a piece of fire burning. The sunset has also begun to set in the west, suddenly, the earthquake trembled, as if it was an earthquake, and at the same time, not far from Qiujiazhuang has raised a high dust, there are miles of scenery.

"It's coming!" Qiu Qingshan, who was standing on the earthen wall, said in a deep voice to Qiu Ning and the others, but in his eyes, there was no helplessness and indignation yesterday, but a long-lost war intent.

"Humph! Collect some interest today. Qiu Ning also looked at the horses and bandits who could already see the group of people clearly.

In a short time, that is, more than a dozen breaths, more than 1,000 horse bandits riding tall horses were already under the earthen wall, and the leader was still the third leader of the horse gang yesterday - Huang Mazi.

Huang Mazi was still riding his jujube red horse, and looked at Qiu Qingshan on the earthen wall with a smile on his face and arched his hand: "Master Qiu, we meet again, I don't know how the preparations are going this year?" ”

"Huang Sanye, wait a minute, 50,000 taels of silver is indeed not a small amount, and it is urgent, this... Huang Sanye waited for a while, at most an hour, and Qiu Mou must have ordered someone to gather the annual offering of 50,000 taels of silver. Qiu Qingshan also replied with a smile.

When Huang Mazi heard this, although he still had to wait for an hour, at least Qiujiazhuang was willing to pay tribute, but he could only wait for another hour, and he smiled at Qiu Qingshan on the earthen wall and shouted: "Hehe... The master waited another hour. ”
