The team moved on.

"Childe, two people have chased them out of the village. Koharu, who was beside Roger, said softly.

When Roger heard this, he looked behind him and saw a girl about fifteen or sixteen years old, supporting an old man on crutches and running after the team.

The villagers ran outside the village to look around, their faces full of hope, fear and disgust.

"Stop!" Roger said, and the team immediately stopped.

The fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl ran to the front of the line with the old man on crutches, and the two of them didn't say a word, but knelt down in front of Roger with a puff, and the old man on crutches said again and again: "Please save the old man's granddaughter, please save the old man's granddaughter." ”

"Old man, get up quickly. Roger hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and helped the old man and the girl up.

The girl stood up tremblingly with the old man in her arms, and there were two lines of tears on her face.

"Old man, if you have anything, please tell me carefully, I will definitely help if I can. Roger said seriously.

The old man sighed and said, "The granddaughter of the old man has been taken by the leader of a gang of robbers, and they are coming tonight to ask for someone. ”

Roger's eyes flashed, and he looked at the old man's granddaughter, the girl's appearance was average, however, the figure was quite well developed, convex and backward, although the face was green and temperamental, with buds to be released, but the figure was hot and attractive, full of attractiveness, presumably the robber leader who fell in love with the girl should be in love with the girl's figure, not her appearance.

"We'll help you settle this matter properly. Roger said, "Old man, let's go to the village to talk?"

"Good, good!" the old man was pleasantly surprised when he heard that Roger was willing to help him, and nodded his head again and again.

Five hundred soldiers were resting near Sanhe Village, Roger and these people followed the old man and the girl into Sanhe Village, the villagers hid in their own houses, looking at Roger and these people curiously, and the children wanted to come out, but they were all held down by adults.

When you enter the courtyard where the old man and the young girl live, the yard is surrounded by a fence, the house is a wooden house, the roof has no tiles, it is all sun-dried thatch, and there are several bird's nests on the roof and eaves, presumably when the season comes, the swallows will move back to live.

The thatched hut was relatively small and could not accommodate so many people, only Roger and Qin Mingkong followed the old man and the girl into the thatched hut, while the others stayed in the courtyard and looked at the vegetable patches in the yard with great interest.

The girl obediently poured a bowl of herbal tea for Roger and Qin Mingkong, and then stood beside the old man.

Roger took a sip of the rough tea bowl, his eyes lit up, the taste was not bad, and he couldn't help but take another sip.

"The two adults, the old man's name is Xi Pingping, who is the village chief of Sanhe Village, and his granddaughter is called Xi Lianghua. The old man said nervously, seeing Roger and Qin Mingkong listening carefully, he continued: "Lianghua went to the town to sell vegetables yesterday, and on the way back, he encountered a group of robbers, and the leader of the gang of robbers took a fancy to Lianghua, followed Lianghua all the way to the village, found the old man, and told the old man that he had taken a fancy to Lianghua, and he was going to come tonight to bring Lianghua back as the lady of the village, and said that if we dare to hide Lianghua or send Lianghua away, they will slaughter the village." ”

"Village Chief, this matter is on us. Roger said, "Village Chief, I went back to the village with you mainly to discuss a matter with you. ”

A trace of panic flashed in Xi Pingping's eyes, suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and said, "My lord, please speak." ”

Roger had insight into Xi Pingping's thoughts at this moment, and he didn't break it, and said: "Village Chief, I want to reclaim the wasteland near Sanhe Village and use it to grow food. ”

"Yes, you can. The village chief said again and again that as long as Roger didn't want to leave his granddaughter, he would agree to any request.

Roger continued: "Of course, I will not occupy the original fields in Sanhe Village, and you will plant whatever you originally planned to plant. ”

"Yes, yes, yes. The village chief said again and again, like a chicken pecking rice.

Roger frowned and asked, "Village Chief, are there often wild beasts near the village?"

"This and this, this and this......" The village chief suddenly hesitated, "My lord, we ...... We can't take care of it, there are often wild animals near the village, and we can't even protect the existing land after planting food. ”

"I'll send someone to clean up all the beasts around the village. "And robbers." Village Chief, you just need to help me take care of the potatoes and corn, you don't need to worry about other things, if you do a good job, I can even make the decision to exempt all the taxes of Sanhe Village for a year. ”

"Can your lord make the decision and exempt our Mikawa Village from paying taxes for a year?" asked Xi Pingping, his eyes widened in disbelief.

"As long as you do well, I can always make the decision to exempt you from paying taxes in Sanhe Village for a year. Roger said in a deep voice.

"We must do a good job, we must take good care of the potatoes and corn!" said Xi Pingping excitedly, almost swearing a curse.

"Potatoes and corn are new grains, and the yield is higher than millet and millet, it doesn't matter if you don't know how to plant or care, I will send someone to teach you. Roger didn't look at Xi Pingping, who was excited, "When you learn to grow and care for potatoes, corn and even wheat, you need to teach the villagers of the other twelve villages." ”

"Yes, yes, yes. Xi Pingping agreed again and again.

"Zhao Dongnong, Yuan Dami, come in!" Roger shouted at the people in the courtyard.

Zhao Dongnong and Yuan Dami entered the thatched house for the first time and saluted Roger and Qin Mingkong respectfully.

"Zhao Dongnong, Yuan Dami, this is Xi Pingping, the head of Sanhe Village, and this is his granddaughter Xi Lianghua. Roger introduced the four of them, and when the four of them got to know each other, he continued: "Zhao Dongnong and Yuan Dami, starting today, Sanhe Village will be used as an experimental planting base for potatoes, corn, and wheat. ”

"Yes. Zhao Dongnong and Yuan Dami said respectfully.

Roger and Qin Mingkong walked out of the thatched hut and said to Yang Jinjin that they wanted 400 soldiers to reclaim the wasteland near Sanhe Village for planting potatoes, corn, and wheat.

The village of Three Rivers suddenly became lively and lively.

Zhao Dongnong and Yuan Dami commanded 400 soldiers, and the village chief Xi Pingping commanded the villagers of Sanhe Village.

Roger and the others rushed into the woods near the village of Three Rivers where the three wild boars had just rushed out.

This forest is neither big nor small, but the trees are quite tall, because of the lack of sunlight in the forest, no plants grow, thick dead leaves spread all over the ground, and the smell of rot fills this forest.

Whoa!

Roger and these people led a hundred soldiers in bright armor into the woods, and the beasts who lived and worked in the woods were wiped out.

Fifty brightly armored soldiers with longbows in their hands, no matter what beast they saw, flying in the sky or climbing on trees, running or climbing on the ground, as long as they saw it, it was an arrow to pass by!

Beasts with thick skin and flesh will be shot as hedgehogs!

The other fifty brightly armored soldiers were armed with shields and swords, and they pushed them sideways through the woods like bulldozers, and even the most powerful and thick-skinned beasts would be hacked to death with knives.

In less than half an hour, a hundred soldiers in bright armor completed the sweep of this forest, all the beasts were killed, and the corpses were all dragged out by the soldiers and sent to the villagers of Sanhe Village.

Looking at the mountain-like beasts, the villagers of Sanhe Village were overjoyed!

In the Daqian Dynasty, ordinary ordinary people may not be able to eat a meal of meat all year round, and the habit of life on weekdays is to eat dry when they are busy, drink thin when they are free, or two meals a day!

The village chief of Xipingping commanded the women, the elderly, and the children in the village to move the mountain-like beasts to the river to clean them up, and when they couldn't finish eating, they made bacon and kept them.

Yang Jinjin ordered a hundred soldiers who had nothing to do, some of them went back to the barracks to bring dry rations, and some of them helped the old and young women and children of Sanhe Village deal with wild beasts.

Qin Mingkong, the princess of Taiping, seemed to have seen this kind of scene for the first time, and happily took the five martial sects to help the old and young women and children of Sanhe Village deal with the beasts.

Roger glanced around and saw two peaks, one high and one low, not far away, squinted for a while, rubbed his right eye, and walked towards the two peaks, one high and one low.

"My lord, my lord, you must not enter these two mountains, there are monsters in them!"

"There's a monster in here?" Roger raised his eyebrows, and couldn't help but rub his right eye, "How do you know?"

The village chief Xi Pingping said: "My lord, we live near here, how can we not know! In these two mountains, every night there is a terrible cry of monsters, and the sound is very loud, like thunder, and wild beasts can't make such a loud sound!"

"A cry as loud as thunder...... , village chief, I see, thank you. Roger said, continuing his stride towards the two peaks, one high and one low.

The village chief looked at Roger and the four maids with a puzzled expression, hesitating whether to stop the adult at the risk of angering him.

Qin Mingkong, who was holding a sharp dagger and cooperating with Xi Lianghua to deal with a sheep-like beast, said, "Village Chief, don't worry, it'll be fine." ”

......

Roger took the four maids up to the high peak, this mountain peak was extremely densely vegetated, reaching Roger's waist, he drew the amethyst sword, cut down a lot of vegetation along the way, and walked slowly and leisurely up.

Hiss!

A small snake the size of a finger and about half a meter long suddenly catapulted towards Roger from the top of a small tree.

Roger immediately swung his sword and slashed off the snake's head with a pop, while sideways to avoid spilling blood on his body.

Smack.

The small snake, which had been halved in half, fell into the dense vegetation and disappeared.

......

Roger walked to the mountainside and stepped on a scabbard with four thumb-sized gems, two black and two white, which were worth a lot!

Clang!

Roger used the amethyst sword to slash the gem-inlaid scabbard, and where the scabbard was slashed, there was only a white mark, and a slight white mark disappeared, but it was the amethyst sword, and the part of the scabbard that slashed actually appeared a gap the size of a fingernail!

The Amethyst Sword, which was as sharp as clay and only worse than a treasure weapon, was unexpectedly broken out by a scabbard with a gap the size of a fingernail!
