Chapter 36: The Pirate Ji Yaoguang

The caravan outside the camp was no more than a hundred, and the horse caravan was thrown long to the west, followed by a few wooden carts in the middle. Far away, you can smell the peculiar smell of four-hoofed livestock.

The head of the caravan was not tall, with a dark complexion and ordinary facial features.

The most distinctive feature is his right eye, which is supposed to be disabled from injury and is tightly obscured by a sheepskin black blindfold.

He wore a plain white cardigan with a dark pattern of sprinkled tube trousers, and a long silk collar on the outermost side.

Looking at the bulging sand of the dark red whiskers around his waist, it should be a guy who is tucked in for self-defense.

Seeing the generals surrounding a handsome man from afar, the head of the caravan raised his eyebrows slightly, and his eyes suddenly sharpened, as if he had penetrated the fog of the twilight.

"You're the Lord of the Cold Overseer?"

The one-eyed man lifted his long coat with both hands and crossed it at his waist, and his voice was rich, and there was always some mystery that was indisputable when he listened carefully.

"It's Leng."

Leng Qingtang smiled humbly and bowed his hand, not polite:

"May I ask where your Excellency is from, how do you know that our army needs five through grass?"

The one-eyed man pursed his thin lips lightly, turned sideways to give up an angle, patted the head of the white horse beside him, and Yao Ling Shanshan sounded:

"The horses have traveled all over the world all year round, and those who have no fixed place do not need to ask the governor. I heard that the army of the Celestial Empire was fighting on the northern front of the Bo Army, and it was in urgent need of the five herbs to concoct an antidote, so the brothers got these to see how much silver taels the Overseer was willing to pay? ”

Leng Qingtang didn't answer immediately, and turned his head to look at Yi Mucha.

Mrs. Yi understood, and her five fingers gripped the handle of the scimitar hard, and her eyebrows were awe-inspiring:

"I've checked the goods first, and then I'll talk about anything else!"

The one-eyed man tilted his head and asked Tim Cha to lead people forward.

Mrs. Yi and the two soldiers unveiled the big basket on the back of the horse, and after carefully examining it, their eyes showed a happy brilliance.

"Lord Leng, it's Wutou Grass!"

Tumcha raised his head excitedly and shouted.

Leng Qingtang heard this, turned around and explained a few words to a military doctor.

The military doctor should nod his head, and then leaned over to inspect the goods with the army.

From the head of the team to the end of the team, all the goods were seen, and the military doctor trotted back, looking relieved:

"Back to the Governor, it is indeed five through grass, full of two hundred baskets of five through grass!"

Leng Qingtang's eyes were fixed, and he clenched his fists at the one-eyed man, and the corners of his mouth overflowed with laugh lines:

"Thank you for your timely help, I don't know how to price these five through grasses?"

The man narrowed his eyes and raised an index finger:

"Not much, 10,000 taels of silver."

There was an uproar behind Leng Qingtang.

The soldiers were shocked and indignant, chattering endlessly:

"What, ten thousand taels of silver?"

"This is clearly a money grab!"

"Could they have been sent by the Boku? The other side of Xuede City only used the next three indiscriminate means to win us, and now they have collected five through grass and in turn they are extorting bamboo poles. ”

The sound of "gong" made everyone's discussion come to an abrupt end.

He pulled out his scimitar from his waist in a rage, and the soldiers beside him also raised their weapons when they saw the situation.

Lady Pi was furious, and the scimitar pointed at the one-eyed man, and roared:

"Those who know each other will leave the five thoroughfares, and every person of Dayi should do their best to the national disaster, how can you hoard Juqi and blackmail wantonly?"

The one-eyed man scorned at Omcha and sneered:

"Shut up, straighten your tongue before you talk to grandpa! Grandpa risked his life to snatch these rotten grass from the hands of the Boku people, and if he was half a step late, this would be two hundred baskets of grass and wood ashes! Come and seeβ€”"

Pulling out a man from the horse team, the one-eyed man lifted his horse coat, revealing the bloody and bandaged simple wounds inside, his eyes were cold and stabbed at Yi Mucha, and asked in a hard voice:

"Is this worth 10,000 taels of silver?"

Then he strode towards the middle of the group, dragged a man from the cart, and knocked off his red bun.

Suddenly, the inch-long knife wound on the top of his head was revealed, and it was shocking and hideous.

The one-eyed man asked again:

"Is this worth 10,000 taels of silver?!"

"You... You're a strong word! ”

Mrs. Yi couldn't say it, and her body trembled with anger.

Ichiro immediately jumped in front of the one-eyed man and raised his sword high.

"Stopβ€”"

Leng Qingtang snapped and stopped the fight in time.

The man bowed his back and obediently retreated to Mrs. Yi's side.

Leng Qingtang's face suddenly met the man's one-eyed, and there was a flash of essence in his deep phoenix eyes.

"It's a deal."

The clear voice escaped, revealing full courage, which surprised all the generals, including the one-eyed man.

The soldiers were confused, looked at each other and spoke, and their words were eager:

"Lord Leng Duke, how can you agree to him at will?"

"Do you really want to give him ten thousand taels of silver? That's a lot of money. ”

"The Overseer doesn't have to be reluctant, if he doesn't leave Wutou grass today, he won't want to leave our barracks one step!"

Leng Qingtang raised his hand, and everyone was immediately silent when they saw it.

The man's gaze was silent, and he continued with the one-eyed man's gaze:

"To this number the Governor is increased tenfold."

Suddenly, the crowd was boiling, and the momentum was like a pot of boiling hot porridge.

"W-Isn't this nonsense?"

"One hundred thousand taels of silver? Don't say 200 baskets of grass, even the mountain is enough to buy two or three! ”

"Won't Lord Leng settle accounts?"

In the chaos, Bai Qiying's face was pale and red, and he approached the overseer slowly, quietly raised his eyes to peek at his face, and repeatedly guessed in his heart:

The Overseer is afraid that he is not in good health, so how can he talk nonsense at this time?

His strange expression was caught by Leng Qingtang's sharp eyes, and his black eyes immediately locked towards him, so frightened that he quickly lowered his head and shrunk his neck.

The one-eyed man was also stunned at the moment, and he couldn't say a whole sentence with his mouth half open.

"Big boss, do you think the price of Leng is okay?"

Leng Qingtang looked at him, hooking his lips and smiling.

"Oh, okay, no problem......"

The man finally came back to his senses, "hehe" laughed embarrassedly, but there was a hint of alertness in his heart at this time.

This handsome eunuch is not stupid or stupid, and is willing to pay 100,000 taels of silver, I am afraid that in addition to the two hundred baskets and five thorough grasses, there are other attempts.

Sure enough, the next moment Leng Qingtang said:

"This 100,000 taels of silver, in addition to buying your five through grass, also have to buy your horse gang and brothers."

"What?"

The man's eyes widened, and his upper body leaned back in astonishment.

"Lord Leng is a cheerful person, but I don't buy and sell living people. Besides, you took my caravan and my brothers, didn't you deliberately want to smash my eating fellows? ”

Leng Qingtang lowered his eyes and chuckled, playing with the emerald green wrench on his big finger, and his tone was faint and he couldn't distinguish his emotions:

"Even if Your Excellency doesn't have a caravan, doesn't he have any other ability to earn money? For example, sailing on the sea, killing people and plundering goods......"

The men of the horse gang immediately became eyebrows, and they all drew their blades, and in an instant, the blades were silver and white, and the forest was cold and dazzling.

Dayijun followed suit, and the atmosphere became extremely tense.

The arrow of Qimu Cha blocked in front of Leng Qingtang, raised the scimitar, and the stars burst out from the bottom of his eyes:

"Hey, you figure it out, this is Dayi's military camp, and you don't take advantage of fighting."

"Mrs. Yi is right," Leng Qingtang smiled and said to the one-eyed man:

"Leng appreciates Your Excellency's courage, and was able to snatch Wutou grass from the hands of the Boku people and send it to our army's barracks, which shows that you are also a brave and loyal person. Now that the Governor has a matter to trust, I wonder if you can take a step? ”

The other party thought for a moment, waved his hand and signaled the brothers behind him to put down their blades, and followed Leng Qingtang alone to the front of a wooden fence on the east side of the camp.

Leng Qingtang stopped and turned around to clench his fist at the man, with a solemn expression:

"Leng thanked Mrs. Yaoguang for her help."

The one-eyed man's facial features were as quiet as ever, and he looked at the man's lips and smiled:

"I wonder how the Overseer thinks that I am the notorious female pirate Ji Yaoguang?"

Leng Qingtang's eyes narrowed slightly, and his complexion was calm:

"Voyagers love to pet parrots for pleasure, and it is rumored that Mrs. Yaoguang has one eye and most of the ornaments on her head are parrot tail wings. Now, if your Excellency is not Mrs. Yaoguang, who is it?

However, to be notorious is not to be true. The lady was willing to take the risk and took the two hundred baskets of grass from the enemy, which shows that the hero is brave, and the word 'thief' is well deserved. ”

These many words of admiration were indeed felt by Leng Qingtang.

At this moment, he finally understood why the Boku people suddenly evacuated in a hurry when they were shouting and scolding Zhenghuan in front of the battle, because a corner of the rear was missing, and someone had taken the Wutou grass from the air.

The one-eyed man was stunned, and then smiled with relief:

"Lord Leng is really a powerful person who can speak well......"

Raise your hand to take off the baotou, and the three thousand green silk immediately hang down.

Women no longer deliberately imitate men's majestic and slow speaking tone, and the tone becomes natural:

"Since you can see through it, we might as well open the skylight and say something. Lord Leng is willing to pay 100,000 taels of silver to buy my caravan and brothers, what is the matter? ”

Leng Qingtang turned his body and raised his eyes to look at the towering mountain peaks hidden in the sea of clouds in the twilight.

"When the Celestial Empire army captured the two cities of Hongwu and Huolei before, Leng heard from the captives that now the northern front of Boku is burning the plains, but the trade in the southwest is still continuing. According to the spies' report, in order to resist the Dayi army, Boku has recently transferred all its heavy forces to Xuede City to defend the third city.

Ben Du wanted to borrow the horse gang of Lady Yaoguang, and cooperate with Dayi's army to insert into the enemy's rear and take the fourth light car city first. Once the city of Shell is lost, the enemy army will inevitably retreat to the light car, and then ......"

"I see, is the Overseer trying to shut down the door and beat the dog?"

Ji Yaoguang comprehended, nodded and smiled, and admiration spread out in the corners of his eyes and eyebrows:

"Well, it's a brilliant plan, but it will take a lot of effort to bypass the enemy's line and rush to the southeast of Boku as an ordinary caravan. Let's study the map carefully to find a breakthrough, and I'll do it this time! ”
