Chapter 116: A Snowy Night in the Mountains

When Xiong Gang and the others came back, it was already dawn, and the large cloud of glow pierced the thin night and sprinkled down, illuminating the cold north land where the north wind was howling. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

When dozens of soldiers appeared in front of the camp, the eyes of the people in the queue widened because there were bags hanging on the back of the horses, and there were simple wooden planks dragging behind the horses, on which were many large boxes.

Perhaps it was a bumpy ride, but when he entered the camp, the cloth bag on a horse was loosened, and suddenly, the white rice grain fell like a trickle, jumping on the masonry, and the flickering shadow made the surrounding people stunned.

"It's food!"

Suddenly, someone said happily, and after a while, the crowd boiled, looking at Xiong Gang and the others, their eyes were full of expectation.

The grain was transported into the camp, and Liu Xi was about to find someone to count it, when Lin Yi, who was standing on the side, took a sip of wine and said, "One hundred stones." ”

When Liu Xi was surprised, the two soldiers on the side had already put the cloth bag on the scale pole, and the grain in one bag was about the same weight, but it was also accurate.

I didn't expect Lin Yi to have such ability.

Thinking of seeing the surprise in Liu Xi's eyes, Lin Yi took another sip of wine, smiled and said softly, "Lin Mengjue has learned these carving insect skills all his life. ”

What did you learn in your life?

Liu Xi's heart moved, and he was about to continue asking, but Lin Yi walked out with a wine jug, so he had to give up, some things could not be forced, with the relationship between the two of them, how could Lin Yi stand by and watch in the future?

"My lord, my subordinates plan to take their brothers into the mountains again."

In the house, Xiong Gang and Liu Xi asked for his life again, this time, it was very easy to destroy a mountain, and swept away the rice, grain and silver money hidden in the thief's den, and there was a lot of harvest, which made him quite excited, if it weren't for these things to be transported back to the camp, he couldn't wait to pull out all the cottages outside Yangqu City.

"General Xiong, the soldiers have been running around all night, let them rest for a while."

Although Liu Xi was also very anxious in his heart, if Xiong Gang and the others were exhausted, he would become more and more overstretched with insufficient troops in his hands.

"My lord, how can this matter make my subordinates tired, I can continue to go up the mountain."

Xiong Gang insisted again, but Liu Xi never nodded, so he had to let the soldier who had worked all night go back to the barracks to rest.

After Xiong Gang and the others left, Liu Xi looked at the hill-like grain piled up in the house, and the gloomy cloud between his brows was still not dispersed, a hundred stones, it may seem like a lot, but there are more and more people in the city, and these can't last a few days.

It seems that they will have to send more men to sweep up the bandits, otherwise they will be exposed to the news and hide the food elsewhere, which will be bad.

At noon, after Xiong Gang came to ask for his life several times, Liu Xi answered, but this time he personally led people there.

Leaving Dawu and a hundred soldiers of Yangqu City to take care of the affairs in the city, Liu Xi and the rest of the city walked out of the city, and when they left the city, Lin Yi was still with Xiong Gang and others, while Liu Xi took Xiao, Qulang and a dozen or so Yangqu City soldiers to go elsewhere.

The mountain is steep, the snow does not melt, it is extremely difficult to walk, there is no other way, Liu Xi had to leave the horses at the bottom of the mountain, and lead the two to take care of it, and then a clever pawn led the way up the mountain.

The night of the harsh winter always comes earlier than in the past, not to mention the ancient trees in the mountains, the branches are numerous and knotted, almost trying to cover the sky and the sun, if it weren't for the little pawn who is familiar with the terrain, Liu Xi is afraid that he would have lost his way in this deep mountain long ago.

Along the way, I met a few mountain bandits' secret sentinels, but there are Xiao Wu, but there are a lot of difficult things, this guy is bored in the city, today with Liu Xi out, naturally everything rushed to the forefront, and easily solved those mountain bandit secret sentinels, skilled, and those soldiers who can only ride horses and shoot arrows were greatly shocked.

After walking in the mountains for a long time, I finally saw the sporadic lights hidden in the dense forest halfway up the mountainside, flickering in the late wind and snow, like the stars in the sky.

"Damn, I've finally found the den of thieves."

Although Xiao Wu didn't feel cold, he still shook his body, shook off the snow that fell on his clothes, and stomped his feet again, and suddenly the cloth boots on his feet sank into the thick snow, making him smash his mouth quite dissatisfied.

"Heh......"

Spit out a mouthful of white mist, rubbed his stiff hands, and the soldier who led the way pointed ahead, "My lord, this is the hiding place of the bandits in Xifeng Mountain, these bandits are ruthless, the big family is called the white-faced fox, I heard that he is a scholar who has fallen off the list, and his whereabouts are secret, no one seems to have seen his appearance, but he knows that he is cunning and often has conspiracies, so General Sima has not been able to exterminate him." ”

Shaking off the snow on his boots, Xiao Wu spat on the ground, and immediately melted into a small ball in the snow, and then raised his brows, "It's just a fox, I'll pull him out when I get my master, so that I can see what the hell this guy looks like." ”

As soon as these words came out, the soldiers who had seen him laughed, and Liu Xi shook his head, "Brother Xiaowu, it's better to be careful." ”

Xiao Wu's cultivation has reached the end of his life, and the general mountain bandits are naturally not enough to trouble, but in the mountains and wilderness, who knows how holy it is to hibern, and it is always not enough to take it lightly.

Hearing what Liu Xi said, Xiao Wu put away the contempt on his face, turned his head to look at the lights in front of him, and there was a faint noise in the cold wind blowing in front of him.

"Yusheng, when will you make a move?"

Xiao Wu was a little more serious in his words, and when he was carrying those soldiers, he took out the green steel sword hidden in his sleeve.

"Without further ado, it's a quick fix."

Liu Xi replied in a deep voice, and then said to the soldiers, "Wait here and wait, and when the matter is resolved, I will call you to transport the food back." ”

Unexpectedly, those soldiers knelt on one knee on the ground one after another, and pleaded with Liu Xi, "My lord, my subordinates also want to kill the mountain bandits and do their best to seize food." ”

"Military orders are like mountains, you just need to obey orders!"

After saying this, Liu Xi took the lead in walking towards the thief's den in Xifeng Mountain, the mountain bandits in the village were enough to be solved by the three of them, and several soldiers were ordinary, and they were likely to lose their lives when they went together, so why should they lose their lives if they grabbed food to save people?

Perhaps, when he went out of the city yesterday, Luo Shan also thought about it.

There were no outsiders, Liu Xi was naturally rushing all the way, Qu Lang and Xiao Wu followed silently, and when they were about to travel more than half of the way, Liu Xi suddenly pulled the two of them and shouted, "There is someone ahead!" ”

Hearing this, Xiao Wu looked up, and in the wind and snow, he saw dozens of people coming towards the cottage, dressed in black, covering their faces, and their bodies were fast, obviously cultivating all of them.

"They are all masters, the lowest realm of imperial qi, and the leader has reached the point of great success."

Xiao Wu said in a deep voice, not everyone in the world can practice martial arts, the cultivation of these dozens of people in front of him is enough to shock the world, but now they appear in the deep mountains in the north, how can this not be surprising.

Qu Lang grabbed the long sword in his hand, took the conversation and hummed, "Childe, I'm afraid these people are also going to the cottage." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the man in black flexibly leap into the wooden door of the one-foot-high cottage, and in an instant, there were bursts of screams in his ears.

With such a number of masters, these bandits are not just cutting vegetables.

"Yusheng ......"

Seeing that Liu Xi was silent, Xiao Wu called him, and the green steel sword in his hand was cold and cold in the snow, and it sounded.

Sensing the anxious gaze of the two people around him, Liu Xi collected his thoughts, "It can attract these masters, I'm afraid there are some things hidden in the cottage, so we still watch quietly and secretly, maybe we can reap the benefits of the fisherman." ”

The long sword in Xiao Wu's hand flickered, and he withdrew his sleeve again, and then restrained the aura on his body, and laughed at himself, "If there is really a treasure in that village, my green steel sword will not be lonely tonight." ”
