Chapter 2: Intercepting the Yakshas

"Your surname is Xu?"

Walking briskly, Xia Hou'an's eyes were full of too much expectation.

As mentioned earlier, most of the villagers in Huaiyuan Township are surnamed Xu.

According to Lao Lizheng's description, this Xujia Village was also wide by the ancestors.

"Aang?"

The honest young man who was drinking gruel looked up and looked at this stranger from outside, looking very puzzled.

"I asked you if you are Xu Chu, Xu Zhongkang?"

The tiger general Xu Chu recorded in the history books, more than eight feet long, ten girths around the waist, majestic appearance, and extraordinary bravery.

Although the young man in front of him is not weak, he is not particularly burly, and he does not have the exclusive fierce aura of a fierce general, which is quite different from the imaginary image of Xu Chu.

So in order to determine the answer, Xiahouan asked again.

The honest young man glanced at it, but also nodded.

Good guys, it's you!

Xiahou was overjoyed, no wonder Xu Chu was not by his side when Boss Cao begged for Dong, it turned out that Xiahou Rong was not doing well and failed to recruit Xu Chu, if he hadn't crossed over by himself, it was estimated that the wheel of history would have to wait until seven years later.

However, since my brother is here and I happen to meet him, then don't blame my little nephew for being the first. After all, I don't need to save my life without a system.

Xiahou An's eyes when he looked at Xu Chu became more and more hot.

On the other hand, after a period of gossiping, the villagers still couldn't find a solution, and they didn't want to give up the food in vain, and when they were struggling, the women who had no master of the six gods took the lead in sobbing, and the children saw their mothers crying, and they also cried with Wow, and their emotions were exaggerated.

Suddenly, there was a lot of sorrow in Huaiyuan Township.

At this moment, there was a loud laugh.

"Hahaha......"

This laugh annoyed all the villagers present, and they followed the sound and looked back viciously, only to see that it was a young boy. At such a sad moment, this person actually had a face laughing, and some villagers immediately scolded: "What are you laughing at!"

Attracting the attention of all the villagers, Xiahou An smiled slightly. He already has a plan in mind, and it's not a great strategy, but it shouldn't be a big problem to deal with this gang of thieves.

However, as the protagonist, there is no less, Xiahou An glanced at everyone, and laughed loudly: "I laugh at you for being useless, crying until night today, crying until dawn, can you cry to death thieves?"

"Could it be that you have a solution?" Some people ridiculed each other and expressed extreme distrust of this foreign stranger.

Xiahou An ignored him, smiled confidently, and arched his hand towards Lao Lizheng: "Lao Lizheng, the kid has a plan, but he can retreat from the thief soldiers!"

Outside Huaiyuan Township, thousands of thieves opened their formation.

In the commander's tent set up, the eight-foot-tall strong man in armor put one hand on his knees, and the other hand held the wine bowl, and the cloudy wine swallowed down his throat, and a little overflow flowed down the corners of his mouth, falling on the light iron scales of his crotch, making a sound that clicked.

Looking at his appearance, his horns and eyes are ruthless, and he is vicious, and he is obviously not an easy person.

It is the leader of this gang of thieves, He Man, who is known as the 'Intercepting Yaksha'.

He gulped wine, but his heart was not happy.

As one of the leaders of the thieves in Runan, He Man thinks that he is different from Liu Pi, Huang Shao and others, these people only know how to rob money and sleep with women all day long.

And he is a man with lofty ideals and ambitions!

An ordinary township like Huaiyuan Township, He Man couldn't look down on it at all before.

When General Tiangong was still there, he talked about attacking the county seat, that is, they had attacked the county town. It's a pity that after the death of General Tiangong, the Yellow Turban Army, which lacked a leader, was divided and became headless flies.

Otherwise, he would not have been reduced to grabbing such small country land.

Originally, he wanted to follow General Tiangong to open up a new era, but now he has ended up in such a field.

Alas, ambition is hard to pay!

Thinking of this, He Man felt bitter in his heart, and poured another mouthful.

"Qu Shuai, the big thing is not good, the big thing is not good......"

In the middle of nowhere, a thief ran into the tent in a hurry and shouted urgently.

This shout made He Man, who was sad alone, even more irritable.

Glancing at the little minion, He Man put the wine bowl aside and asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter, so panicked?"

The minion hurriedly replied: "Marshal Qiqi, this morning we have a team of brothers who went out to patrol the sentry, the number is about 150 people, and they will not come back until noon. When I went to look for them in the afternoon, on the way to Qian County, I found their bodies, all of them had died, and only Hou Tai, who led the deputy team, survived......"

He Man frowned, was ambushed by the official army?

This was his first reaction, but he immediately rejected it, if the official army was dispatched on a large scale, it would be impossible not to have a little rumor before.

If it was just the army of Qian County, one hundred and fifty people, there should not be only one survivor.

This thing is weird.

It seems that the person concerned has to be asked.

"What about Hou Tai's others?" He Man asked.

The minion replied: "Yu Dashuai, when I found Hou Tai, he was hiding in a dirt pit, and he was already insane, and he didn't say anything when he asked, it was like losing his soul."

The wine bowl in He Man's hand paused for a moment, then frowned deeply, and then waved his hand and ordered: "Go and bring Hou Tai to the tent, and this commander will personally interrogate him."

As soon as the little minions here received the order to leave the tent, another thief soldier came in and clasped his fists.

"Dashuai, someone from Huaiyuan Township has come, and he brought seven or eight cows, saying that he wants to see you."

Hearing this, He Man finally had a little smile on his face, these villagers also knew each other, but it was naïve to want to send me away with just a few cows.

Let's take a look at what they have to say.

He Man nodded, and ordered his men to bring them in.

Outside the thief army, the sky was already dark, and the lit torches burned into a long fire dragon.

Xiahouan and Xu Chu, who came as representatives of Huaiyuan Township, are here.

Different from Xu Chu's sorrow, like a piece of wood, Xia Hou'an's courage is obviously much greater, and when the thieves went in to report, he has already mingled with a few thieves guarding the door in front of him, bragging, not scared at all, and so good that he is like two brothers.

"Boy, you can just follow us, and you will benefit in the future." Several thieves appreciated Xiahou'an's courage and character, and simply sent out an invitation.

When Xiahou An heard this, his expression was first happy, and then he seemed to remember something, and sighed sadly: "Alas, a few brothers, I can't hide it, little brother, I want to be happy with you, but I have an eighty old lady in my family, and I can't stand the bumps in my old age." My brother is stupid and lazy, if I leave, my mother will not be able to close her eyes when she sleeps at night......"

After listening to Xiahou'an's hardships, several thieves also sighed, no longer reluctant, and even patted the little brother's shoulder, and said earnestly: "It's okay, the brothers understand the principle of filial piety first, if you can't go on in the future, you will come to us, follow He Qushuai, don't dare to say anything else, at least don't worry about eating every day."

Although they are traitors, they also have a filial heart.

At this time, the reported thief came out and informed Xiahou An that He Man was willing to see him.

"Brothers, I'll talk about it later, brother, I'll go get down to business for a while."

Xiahou An said to the few thieves guarding the door, and after a few people nodded in agreement, he followed the reported thieves in the direction of He Man's tent.

Xu Chu followed Xiahou'an silently and did not speak.

When he came, Lao Lizheng and his brother told him that he just listened to Xiahou'an's instructions.

Along the way, Xiahou An peeked at the surrounding situation. On the surface, it seems not to be shocked, but in fact, the liver of the child has already shaken violently, and it seems to pop out of the chest.

This time I came, it was a big gamble.

The biggest reliance is the fierce people around him.

Approaching the tent, the tent door not far ahead opened, and two thieves dragged a man in ragged clothes and eyes out of He Man's tent.

Looking at his appearance, his physical condition is not easy to say, at least he was tortured very badly.

Could it be that He Man is good at this?

The moment his footsteps stopped, Xia Hou'an shuddered unconsciously, whether to retreat from the man or welcome the man.

This becomes a big problem.

The oncoming thieves also found Xia Hou'an, but they were not too surprised, and after a glance, they continued to move forward with Hou Tai, who had lost his soul.

However, at this moment, a change abruptly emerged.

Hou Tai, who was originally numb and sluggish, suddenly struggled violently, his godless eyes suddenly widened, as if he had been subjected to a strong impact and great horror, he pointed at Xia Hou'an, and his whole body was trembling and trembling.

"Hell, hell, hell!"

Desperately breaking away from the support of his companions, Hou Tai ran for his life in fear, his hair scattered, and his voice was hoarse.

Live like a mind-destroying madman.
