However, Li Muxian did not give Ma Shiyao much time to delay, and led the believers to the outside of Zhending Mansion like a tide, and for a while, the lights outside the city were shining for several miles.

When I first heard about the civil unrest, I thought that there were only hundreds of people at most, and then Lu Bufan reported thousands of people, but at this time, looking at the continuous fires and deafening sounds outside the city, Ma Shiyao and Ren Jirong suddenly felt cold, this is especially tens of thousands of people.

Since ancient times, the common people have been coaxed by the crowd, and the rudiments of the rebellion in all dynasties have come from this mentality, that is, the herd effect, as long as there is a leader, there will be countless blind followers, Li Muxian pretended to be a ghost and called himself a real person in the town is killing thieves and punishing evil and all kinds of fairy brainwashing, confusing more than a thousand believers as for Gaocheng and bewitching the homeless people to enter the city to rob the granary, this move is winning the hearts of the people, and in a blink of an eye, a real person called a half-immortal, and the influence is greater and the demagogy is stronger, all the way west along the way people keep following to join, As for Zhending Mansion, there are already tens of thousands of people outside the city.

But that's just the beginning.

Zhending City as a capital city, outside the city is also gathered countless homeless people, originally not dead and insensitive to eat and wait for death, suddenly saw a large number of homeless people shouting slogans rushing in, even before the state of the situation enthusiastically joined, just because those slogans are too special and tempting.

To survive by opening a warehouse and releasing grain, you have to eat if you don't die in vain......

There's nothing more tempting than eating these days.

Almost when Ma Shiyao and the others had just discussed how to quell the civil unrest, all the displaced people outside the city had been bewitched and joined Li Muxian's food begging team, and tens of thousands of people shouted outside the city, the momentum shook the sky, and everyone in the city changed color.

"General, the homeless people are starting to bang on the door," the subordinates hurriedly came to report, Ma Shiyao's face was pale, and he turned his head to look at Ren Jirong, only to see him with a murderous face.

The displaced people outside the city clamored and shouted in unison to open a warehouse to release grain, seeing that the thieves did not respond, they began to bang on the door to enter the city under the impetus of Li Muxian.

However, they can't be killed, these homeless people neither set up their own mountains, nor did they carry flags to rebel, just for rations, if they kill people, they will force them to rebel, and it will have a great impact on the image of the righteous army, not to mention that at this time, tens of thousands of homeless people outside the city have you killed the light? Ma Shiyao and the others both felt embarrassed, but if they didn't stop it now, they were afraid that it would get worse.

As a last resort, Ma Shiyao shouted at the head of the city to calm the people, and at first the homeless people could still listen to him, but after seeing that he was always talking empty words, he lost his patience, and the shouts started again, and Ma Shiyao's voice was drowned in saliva.

Seeing that the pacification could not be achieved, Ma Shiyao had another plan, shouting to the outside world, he could send representatives of public opinion into the city to negotiate, and the rest of them would retreat for a few miles and not disturb the city, otherwise there would be no forgiveness.

Most of the homeless people are coaxing, and they are a little cowardly when they hear that they want to kill, but Li Muxian is not cowardly, let alone stupid, while bewitching the people of the law, they do not blame the public, as long as we eat and do not rebel, the righteous army will not dare to kill, can we still call the righteous army if we kill people? If they dare to kill people, we will be the opposite, they can attack the city and plunder the land, eat and drink without worrying, why can't we set up ourselves as kings and be self-reliant, why should we look at their faces and beg for food......

These words are too inflammatory, and the emotions of the displaced people are immediately high when they are instigated, and the clamor is even more serious about Ma Shiyao's threat at all, as for the small trick of sending public opinion representatives out of the city to negotiate, if ordinary people believe it, but for the old Jianghu Li Muxian, believe that you are a big-headed ghost, he knows that as long as he enters the city, he will be taken down and killed by the thief army, and outside the city is a group of blind rabble, and the group of insects will disperse in a blink of an eye without a leader.

One did not dare to use a knife, the other did not dare to enter the city, and the two sides fell into a confrontation.

It was late at night, and Li Muxian's chickens and dogs jumped outside Zhending City, which made Ma Shiyao anxious, and Chang Yu, who was dozens of miles away in the north, also encountered great trouble and fell into danger.

However, he said that because the walking was too slow, Jiang Fa stole the horse and rode north, taking advantage of the cover of the night to gallop all the way to Wuji County, but there was a fork in the middle of the road.

All the way to the north, every time there are slightly larger villages and towns there are homeless people gathered, a few people riding horses are worried that they are too ostentatious to avoid the crowd, pick up the wilderness and go fast, but still encounter trouble, just from a homeless gathering place bypass the line can not reach two miles, suddenly the fire rises in all directions, surrounded by more than ten horsemen, and reprimands to dismount.

Suddenly, several people were shocked, Wu Zhong and Qiao Sanxiu were just about to break out, but they were stopped by Chang Yu's eyes, because he found that this wave of people was holding knives and bows, this was by no means an ordinary roadblock thief, and it was very likely that they were spies of the thief army.

Why not a Ming army agent?

The reason is very simple, the territory within a radius of hundreds of miles in Baoding Mansion is a thief war zone, and the entry of the Ming army scouts is all kinds of cross-dressing and stealth, how dare they be so blatant.

Wu Zhong is worthy of being an old Jianghu, and he reacted quickly and was the first to dismount and kneel on the ground to beg for mercy: "Master Jun, Master Jun and I are all good citizens......"

When Chang Yu and the others saw it, they hurriedly dismounted and knelt on the ground, begging for mercy.

"Good people?" A few thieves sneered: "Where did the good people come from, and why did the horses travel at night?" ”

That's right, these more than ten people are indeed thieves and horses, wandering around the village next to this rest, and they chased after them when they heard the sound of hooves, but they saw that they were four big and one small five sneaky suspects.

"Master Jun, the little one is really a good citizen, this trip is to go back to his hometown to pick up the young master and the young lady to go north on the order of the head of the family......" Wu Zhong gushed endlessly and made up a mutiny in the hometown where the head of the family was doing business in the capital, so he ordered the servants to return to their hometowns and take their children to the capital for refuge, but because there were too many displaced people on the way, the servants had to rush overnight......

It's rare that he was able to make up this story on the fly, but it was also reasonable and impeccable, and the thief saw two strong men, a thin domestic servant (Jiang Fa) and a young woman and a daughter, but he also believed it.

However, Wu Zhong made a fatal mistake, that is, the thieves hated the squire and the rich from top to bottom, or favored them, and tortured and plundered everywhere they went.

It's just that Wu Zhong doesn't say so, and he can't justify himself, how can ordinary homeless people come to mount, and there are five people and four strong men in a group, which is too suspicious.

"How can I believe you with what you say" A thief snorted coldly and drove the horse closer, the steel knife in his hand flashed coldly, Nangong Yu looked up and glimpsed, and immediately became short of breath, Chang Yu reached out and dragged her beside him.

"Master Jun, I don't believe you can search your body, we are unarmed, there is only some broken silver left on our bodies, Master Jun can take it all, just ask to let me go" Wu Zhong said with his hands stretched out, looking like you came to search your body.

The thief really had the intention of searching his body, but when he saw his behavior like this, he believed it again, and returned to the horse and whispered to the rest of the thieves, as if he was discussing how to deal with the others.

Chang Yu lay on the ground and the killing intent in his heart gradually rose, he knew that these thieves could not let them go easily, just by virtue of the identity that Wu Zhong had just fabricated, he was doomed to be doomed, but he couldn't resist for a while, if he had a knife in his hand on weekdays, these more than ten people would not be in his eyes at all.

However, this sneak, in order to cover his whereabouts, he did not carry a knife, did not carry a bow and only hid a short blade for self-defense, but these thieves around him were very cautious, with long knives out of the sheath and a few bows aimed at them at all times, this is the difference between spies and ordinary soldiers, with a very high sense of danger and military literacy.

Just as he was thinking about how to deal with it, the thief returned from his horse, walked around several people with a torch in his hand, and then smiled: "Take out the silver yourself, and leave the whole corpse of the woman Kerao and the others......"

Chang Yu and the others had a chill in their hearts, the other party not only had a killing intent but also a lustful heart, although Nangong Yu was only eleven or twelve years old, she was born beautiful and a beautiful embryo, if it weren't for this, she wouldn't be targeted by thieves in Zhaozhou City, so that her family would be ruined.

"Military master, military master, slow, and slow" Wu Zhong hurriedly said: "We have only a few taels of broken silver, and the military master can't make a fortune if he takes it, but my family master has thousands of family assets, and he loves the young master and Miss very much, if you let me go, the family master will be grateful."

The wealth is moving, and the thief raised his eyebrows when he heard it: "This is far away from the capital, Lao Tzu let you go and don't go back, isn't it a bamboo basket to draw water."

"How come, the little one is willing to take the young master and the young lady as hostages, and let me go back to Beijing to communicate, and the head of the family will definitely be willing to pay a lot of money", Wu Zhong begged.

The thief was overjoyed, looked at Nangong Yu with a lewd smile and said: "If the remuneration is in place, Lao Tzu can naturally ensure that your young master and young lady are thorough, but I am afraid that at that time, your young lady will fall in love with Lao Tzu and will not want to leave, so you have to let your master prepare more dowry."

The thief laughed, thinking that this servant was not stupid, and in order to save his life, he happily took his young master and young lady hostage. Nangong Yu trembled, her face turned pale and her lips bit out blood, Chang Yu looked up expressionlessly and glanced at Wu Zhong and the others.

"That's, that's, these few taels of silver on the little one's body will take the flowers first, and when the little one goes to the capital, he will bring the silver to redeem the young master's young lady......" Wu Zhong got up with a humble smile and reached out to take out the silver in his arms, and bowed close to the thief.
