As the only person in the team to sit on the sliding pole, Cao Zhenren is now complacent.

Under him is a hard-working sedan chair driver, next to him is an army of bandits who are hugging each other, if there is another cigarette gun at hand, it will be even more appropriate, he can't help but think.

Along the way, he desperately recalled a movie he watched when he was a child: an old bandit sitting on a sliding pole with a smoking gun, a running People's Liberation Army, and a mountain city in a crossfire...... It's a pity that he can't remember the name of the movie, the content of the movie is very appropriate to the current situation of his old man, but this time it is not the People's Liberation Army that comes to destroy him, today's script is that he goes to eliminate harm for the people, and his old man now belongs to the righteous side.

"I'm afraid Mr. doesn't know that there is also a Taoist temple on this mountain, hehe, Tianmu Mountain also has a Taoist blessed land. When I am interested, I will take my husband to play for a few days, maybe my husband can still find a common vein, hehe, hehe. ”

Zhou Dazhai's style of speaking has changed greatly in the past few days, from a person who pays attention to temperament to a long-winded old king next door, although Cao Chuan is not adaptable, but he said that he understands that this is exactly the result he wants.

In the afternoon a few days ago, in the back mountain of the screen village, the scorching warhead, the bursting firelight, and the huge sound, the high-level leaders of the screen village who were fortunate enough to see the power of the "Xianjia Lianzhu Fire Gun" finally let go of the mentality of "beware of everything" all the time, and began to formally evaluate a topic: What can the immortal chief bring to everyone?

Cao has actually been wondering all along. After others crossed over with their bare butts, within a few days, the eldest brother took off his robe and gave way, and the younger brother bowed his head and began to go all the way to victory. He came from the old man in a weak way, bringing himself salt, bringing knives, and eggs, these people have always positioned him as a "dangerous tenant", not to mention bowing down, and he can still see the little precautions hidden in the respectful attitude.

Everything changed that afternoon, and he really felt the meaning of the phrase "power comes out of the barrel of a gun". Zhou Tong and several people obviously reached a certain consensus, and in the past few days, they began to ask him about his future plans, and vaguely revealed that if Mr. leaves the brothers in the future, whether it is not too righteous or not, Cao Chuan can understand it, and he is also very satisfied with the current attitude of everyone.

Of course, his purpose is not to be a mountain king, at the moment he just wants to draw a few people from the screen village to go to Hangzhou with him. It's hard to say before this, if you say it, you are begging for someone, and you can't do business on the pole. Now it is naturally different, the initiative is in hand, and everyone can sit down together to talk about their careers and the future.

Hearing Zhou Tong's introduction to the Taoist temple, Cao Chuan smiled and said: "The seniors in the door came out to travel and practice, some of them became the second little of the shop, some of them were coachmen, and some of them were giant businessmen, but they didn't become Taoist priests, and the Taoist temple was also a little entered, why are you Tao?" It's annoying to see too much! ”

Zhou Tong laughed: "Mr. is straightforward! It turned out that the seniors went down the mountain to experience, and the peddlers and pawns did it, stained, admired and admired. ”

Speaking of this, he glanced at Cao Chuan, and then asked casually: "I don't know what Mr. plans to do in the future, but there is a place for the brothers to help?" ”

Cao Chuan knew that there would be such a question, haha smiled, reached out and took the bamboo tube handed by Zhao Si next to him, and after taking a sip of the mountain spring, Shi Shiran said: "I probably can't be a shopkeeper, I have thought about it these days, and I always feel that I can't be wronged, I still have to find a prosperous place in the future, how about being a rich man?"

Zhou Tong smiled bitterly and shook his head: "At Mr.'s age, it should be the time to make meritorious contributions, with great magical powers, where can he not make a fortune?" What does the rich man do, the emperor... Cough... This is also done. ”

Zhou Tong said for a while, this would feel a little inappropriate, and he wanted to say something to remedy, when he heard Cao Chuan's voice Shi Shiran floating over from the sliding rod: "The emperor can't do it, it's not in line with the Taoist heart, one side is already lucky, let's talk about this later, let me think about it again......"

Zhou Tong nodded again and again, shouting back and forth, the speed of the team increased in vain, Cao Chuan sat on the sliding rod and looked back and forth, turned his head sideways and asked Zhao Si, "How long will it take to arrive?" ”

"Sir, there are still five miles."

This time the screen village is really pouring out of the nest, after seeing the immortal demonstration of the magic weapon, the screen village took a few days to carry out the second mobilization, in addition to the early down the mountain of more than 100 people, not counting the left behind Lu tent room and other votes of the old and weak, today's big team has more than 180 people, this is already all the capital in the village.

According to the plan of the Qingshitai Military Conference, the brigade set off on the fifth watch today, quickly completed the forty-mile mountain road, rested in Hengtang Village early, recuperated overnight, and set out early tomorrow morning, and hit the front of Baizhuang in one breath.

Forty miles down the mountain from the screen village is the official road, and the mountain pass is the small village Hengtang, which is regarded as the dispatch unit of the screen village. Along the east line of Hengtang, they are Baijiazhuang, Hujiazhuang, Lin'an County, Hangzhou.

Baizhuang is less than thirty miles away from Hengtang, if the plan goes well, the people of Pingfeng Village can be killed in the afternoon, and this side can squeeze out an afternoon to break the village.

Cao Chuan didn't have any opinion on the plan, he was just in charge of fire suppression. But today, he sat down on the pole all the way, and he was glad that he didn't express his opinion. There are many things in this mountain, and he can't think about it at all, and today just this forty-mile mountain road will take up most of the day, and he has to rest, drink water, and eat dry food along the way.

Thinking about the scene in another world where the eldest brother sent a group letter, and the younger brother took a taxi in ten minutes, and then looked at the calluses on the feet of these lean, short, and tough mountain people, Cao Chuan sighed with emotion for a while......

At about four o'clock in the afternoon, I finally saw a circle of earth enclosures on the side of the mountain road in the distance, and Hengtang arrived.

Lao Yuan Chu saw the benefits and brought people to meet him, and Cao Zhenren also slid down from the sliding rod with the support. There was no way, the legs were numb, a little embarrassing, and then everyone entered the village.

There are only forty or fifty households in Hengtang, which in Cao Chuan's view is not much different from the impoverished mountain villages of the 21st century. Rammed-earth houses, bamboo and wood shacks, black and thin children, shabby, barefoot villagers. The only thing that interested him was the woman who peeked out from behind the window. It's not that he's hungry and thirsty, it's the first time I've seen a woman since I came to the Ming Dynasty, and I can't see my appearance clearly, but I want to know that there won't be any beautiful women.

The village is not far from the official road, there is a pond outside the village, and the periphery is a rammed earth wall, Cao Chuan is surrounded by everyone, under the eager gaze of the two rows of warriors along the road, he came to the front of a large house in the middle of the village, and saw Zhou Tong talking to a few old men, with two bags of salt at his feet.

Zhou informed Cao Chuan's temper, but did not introduce it to Cao Chuan, and came over and said, "The villagers will also contribute these days." Those are the elders of the clan, they are all acquainted, and the gentleman brought two bags of good salt to exchange for some flesh and bones, and they will give the brothers good food today, and have the strength to fight tomorrow.
