About 200 bandits fell into the hands of the official army, most of them were killed on the spot, a few abandoned their weapons and surrendered, plus more than 100 people who died in the hands of Qi'an, the entire Liuxian Village 500 strong bandits, the most people who can escape are only about 100 people, and the three bandit leaders have been ambushed, 27 martial artists are almost dead, and the rest of the scattered fugitives have not become a climate, and the Liuxian Village that has been evil for more than ten years has finally been destroyed.

In fact, the officers and soldiers who came to suppress the bandits had long noticed that the bandits in Qingliang Mountain had not put up effective resistance at all, and it was very difficult for a powerful bandit to meet one, which was obviously not as terrible as the rumors. When he rushed up the mountain, he saw the breached sentry and the bloodstained corpses on the ground along the way, and guessed that someone had launched an attack on Qingliang Mountain first, and had already killed the old nest of Liuxian Village. In the end, when batch after batch of prisoners were escorted to the commander, after asking, they learned that the famous Liuxian Village was actually broken by a little-known young man alone, and even the big boss Li Liuxian was killed.

Qi An fell next to Li Liuxian's corpse, almost everyone thought he was going to die, but he never died, two black eyes looked at the officers and soldiers who came from afar, until the officers and soldiers of the brigade rushed to the front in a strict formation, he opened his mouth, and said weakly: "The bandits have captured the people in our village, please rescue them." ”

The leader of the officers and soldiers waved his hand, and his subordinates were divided into several teams, and searched the entire Liuxian Village in an orderly manner, and soon rescued a group of men and women, all of whom were nearby villagers, and the captured Ah Fen, Xiao Yun, and Niu Niu were among them, seeing that they were safe and sound, Qi An's bloodstained little face finally showed a relieved smile.

"Anzi, why are you here?"

The sharp-eyed Xiao Yun actually recognized Qi An at a glance, ran over in a panic and hugged him in his arms, and kept wiping the blood on his face with his sleeve.

Ah Fen and Niuniu also rushed over, Niuniu was only eleven years old, younger than Qi An, and when she saw that Qi An was covered in blood and was about to die, she cried so much that her tears couldn't stop falling. The eldest Ah Fen seemed very calm, and he didn't care about crying, so he quickly tore the strip of cloth to bandage Qi An's wounds. In fact, Qi An's injuries seem to be heavy, but there is no fear of life, the bleeding has already stopped, even if it is not bandaged, it doesn't matter, it will eventually heal with the passage of time.

The leader of the officers and soldiers walked to Qi 'an and asked loudly: "I am Zhao Song, the county lieutenant of Pingyang County, and I was ordered to clear out the bandits in Qingliang Mountain, and who are you?"

Qi An replied: "The little people Qi An, who is from Qixi Village, because they were ransacked by bandits yesterday and kidnapped several people, came to kill the thieves and save people. ”

Zhao Song is a middle-aged man with a dignified bearing, about fifty years old, with gray hair on his sideburns, but he has a strong physique, impressive momentum, and is obviously also a martial artist, he glanced at Li Liuxian's corpse, and praised with a smile: "You are very good, you have reached the innate realm at such an age, and you can even kill Li Liuxian, you are really a hero out of a young man!"

A smile squeezed out of Qi An's pale face: "Lord Zhao has won the prize, this person is extremely powerful, Xiaomin is not his opponent, and it is completely by luck to be able to kill this person." ”

"You don't have to be modest, luck is also part of strength!" Zhao Song smiled, obviously not believing that luck alone could kill the famous Li Liuxian, maybe there was really an element of luck, but cultivation strength was definitely the most important factor.

Qi An didn't have the heart or strength to argue, so he changed the topic with a slight smile: "Now that the thieves are ambushed, I have rescued the villagers, so I will take my leave first and return to the village as soon as possible, so as not to worry them." ”

Zhao Song frowned: "But you hurt ......"

"It's okay! I can't die!" Qi An replied categorically, and with the support of a few little girls who were crying, he walked slowly down the mountain.

Zhao Song looked at his back silently, and shouted loudly after a while: "Little brother Qi, Zhao respects you as a hero, if you have the opportunity, please be sure to come to Pingyang County to gather, I will feel extremely gratified!"

Qi An turned his head and waved his hand and smiled, and without saying a word, he went away.

Not to mention that the officers and soldiers scolded the captives for looting the cottage property, but only said that Qi An and his entourage, a mere fifty miles of mountain road, did not take half an hour to come, but it took three or four hours to return, and by the time they returned to Qixi Village, night had already fallen.

In fact, it didn't take long for Qi An's injuries to heal, and the terrifying wounds had healed, which did not affect his actions at all, but in order not to let people discover the strangeness of his physique, he deliberately pretended to be seriously injured and difficult to heal, walking slowly, walking and stopping.

Ah Fen and Xiao Yun supported him left and right, while Niuniu trotted all the way back to Qixi Village, on the one hand, to report safety, so as not to worry the villagers, and on the other hand, to notify the villagers to come and respond.

After Erniu and Huwa heard the news of Qi An's serious injury, they hurriedly put on an ox cart and hurried towards Qingliang Mountain, and finally met halfway and used the ox cart to pick up the injured Qi An.

Lying on the rough and simple wooden couch in his home, Qi An roughly recounted the experience of breaking into the mountains to kill thieves, many dangers were not mentioned, but only a word, but the excited villagers listened to them with relish.

The martial arts style in Qixi Village is not flourishing, except for a few hunters in the village, the vast majority of them are ordinary people, they don't know the difference between monks and warriors, and they don't know how strong the thieves in Liuxian Village are, they only know that the father of the Qi family kid is very, very powerful, a sword is cut out, more than a dozen heads fall to the ground in an instant, and the Qi family kid has his father's true inheritance, it must be very powerful, it should not be difficult to eliminate a group of bandits, the only regret is that Qi An was seriously injured.

When the villagers dispersed, they went home, leaving only Aunt Wang and Uncle Ping next door to take care of them. Uncle Ping took off Qi An's bloody clothes and put on clean clothes, while Aunt Wang was busy lighting a fire and cooking supper for Qi An, and she was very busy. Qi An, who had been wandering outside for more than half a year, finally felt the warmth of his long-lost family, and couldn't help but miss his father even more, and muttered in his mouth: "Father, where have you been?"

According to the villagers, not long after Qi Anqiao's house, Qi Shaoshan quietly left Qixi Village, no one knew where he went, left no clues at all, silently calculated, at least eight or nine months, I don't know if there was an accident.

However, for his father's safety, Qi An is not too worried, after all, although his father's mental state is not good, his strength is unfathomable, it is difficult to meet opponents, and he is low-key, he will not easily cause trouble, and it is almost impossible to get killed.

Qi An pretended to recuperate from his injuries, lived in Qixi Village for more than a month, secretly went out several times, searched all the nearby inaccessible peaks and valleys, and still found no trace of his father.

During this time, Qi An had nothing to do except concentrate on cultivation, but because of the influence of the dark blue flames in the dantian, his entry was very slow, which made him extremely annoyed.

On this day, someone in Qi An's family came to the door, it turned out to be the envoy of Pingyang County, and on the order of Zhao Song, the county governor, he invited Qi An to Pingyang County to gather, saying that there was something important to discuss.

Qi An happily agreed, explained to a few friends in the village, left a note for his father at home, and set out on the road to Pingyang County with the envoy.

The envoy came on horseback, and Qi An could not ride a horse, so he sat behind the envoy, and the envoy rode the horse to the east.

It is more than 300 miles away from Pingyang County, and the mountain road is rugged and difficult to travel, plus the weight of two people has to be carried, and it took half a day to reach the city gate.

In the Daqian Dynasty, the geographical division from large to small is the state, county, county, town, village, and the town and village have neither the imperial court garrison, nor the city wall protection, only fences and fences, as well as the militia and some private armies, so it is not a city at all, and the county seat is the smallest city, with a tall city wall, and a small number of regular troops stationed and patrolling, and the degree of prosperity and personnel density are far more than that of villages and towns.

Pingyang County is a small and medium-sized remote county, with a garrison of only 500 people, and the magistrate is Zhao Song, the county lieutenant, who is the second-in-command of the entire Pingyang County, and the county magistrate in charge of political affairs is above.

Under the Daqian military system, regular soldiers must be at least at the level of samurai. Ten people are a small team, the leader is called the commander of the army, and the martial master must serve as the leader; 100 people are a squadron, and the commander is the captain, and he must have the strength of the martial arts; the thousand people are a large team, and the commander is called the commander, who is the monk who breaks through the realm of martial arts; and the ten thousand people are an army, and the supreme commander is the general, and it is necessary to have a strong strength far beyond the vast majority of monks.

In addition to the commander, the captain, commander, and general all have three positions: one chief, two lieutenants. Take Pingyang County as an example, the garrison of 500 is the strength of five squadrons, and each squadron has a captain and two deputy captains. Zhao Song is one of the five captains, and he commands a team of 100 sergeants, but he also has the official position of a county lieutenant, so he is one rank higher than the other four captains.

Under the guidance of the envoy, Qi An soon came to a mansion through the city gate, which was the residence of the county governor Zhao Song, and the two domestic servants guarding the door had obviously been notified and led Qi An straight to the hall in the courtyard.

A banquet was being held in the hall, and in addition to Zhao Song, who was located at the head of the main seat, there were more than ten guests, most of whom were carrying weapons and wearing standard iron armor, obviously garrison officers.

When Zhao Song saw Qi An coming in, he immediately stood up from his seat and laughed: "You can count the little hero here!"

Subsequently, Zhao Song ordered Qi An to sit next to him, and introduced everyone to the banquet, sure enough, one or two were either captains or vice captains, and the remaining few were dressed in fancy and civilian clothes, all of whom were wealthy businessmen and celebrities in Pingyang County.
