Chapter 18: Change
The middle door was wide open, and Cheng Ming and others rushed into the cottage, and the next thing was naturally without suspense.
A large blade cut off a batch of heads, and the rest naturally knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, trembling all over, asking for nothing, only to be able to escape a small life.
Asked people to clean up the battlefield, the seriously wounded and dying gave a knife, the lightly wounded, or simply pretended to be dead, all tied up and thrown aside, picked two flexible heads, looked more clever, as a leading party, let them get out the entire cottage of gold and silver treasures.
A few big guys, there is no suspense.
Whether it was stubborn resistance or kneeling and surrendering, it didn't mean anything to Cheng Ming.
Anyway, there is no need to talk about morality to some bandits, what do one of the ten people in this gang do. Glance at it casually and see which one is more pleasing to the eye, and you will save him from death. The rest were slaughtered.
The technique used is even more fierce than drawing ten strokes.
Whether it was Old Man Xing, the coachman, or the big and small Shuang'er who had been hiding in the carriage, they were all shocked by the continuous screams and the smell of blood, and they closed their eyes tightly, shrunk their necks, curled up in a ball, and didn't even dare to look at them.
"Spare your life, your lord!"
"We are also forced to do so, years of famine, we can't eat, we can't watch ourselves starve to death, we can only rob others in order to survive, adults spare our lives!"
"Spare your life, spare your life!"
The crying of begging for mercy is continuous, and there are constantly people telling their experiences, occasionally talking about emotion, and sobbing from sadness, which can be described as sad and tearful for those who hear it.
If it were someone else, and being made troubled by their crying, I am afraid that my heart would be softened.
Could it be that Cheng Ming, who crossed over to this plane, was originally rushing to destroy the world, and wanted to arouse sympathy with a few cries? What to do Spring and Autumn Dream!
The figure flashed, and Cheng Ming appeared in front of the captive.
watched coldly for a while, jumped a few times and pointed the loudest crying.
The hat-bearers immediately pounced on them like wolves, as if dragging a broken sack, and dragged them out alive, and then with a wave of the big knife, the heads fell to the ground!
There was a commotion among the captives, and everyone exclaimed, all of them closing their eyes.
For a while, the chaotic voices were suppressed.
Cheng Ming sneered: "Let you speak? Shut up! Whoever makes no noise will not be spared! ”
The scene instantly quieted down, and everyone covered their mouths stiffly, not daring to leak a trace of movement, their eyes were wide open, and their eyes were full of horror.
In their eyes, Cheng Ming is probably even more terrifying than the King of Yama, and killing people at every turn does not give people a chance to live.
At this time, a small man led a few hat-bearers back, carrying seven or eight large boxes behind him, the lids of which were not tightly covered, and the gold, silver, and jewels piled up inside reflected all kinds of light in the sun.
There was a commotion among the captives, but no one dared to make a sound.
Sent a few boxes over to Cheng Ming to see, Cheng Ming just glanced at them lightly, then raised his hand, and several boxes disappeared in an instant.
The crowd could hardly believe their eyes.
Cheng Ming naturally didn't pay attention to what they thought, and said lightly:
"Since the harvest is okay, then I'll open the net and give you people a chance to live......
With a sneer on his face, he floated towards the captive crowd.
Everyone was just about to say thank you, but when they saw the sneer on the corner of Cheng Ming's mouth, they suddenly shivered and closed their mouths tightly.
didn't find a trace of noise, and couldn't take the opportunity to cut off a few heads, Cheng Ming inevitably felt a little regretful.
"I know a little bit about the rules! Hmph, from today onwards, you will be the descendants of Cheng Mansion. Go back to me to learn the rules honestly, work diligently, maybe when you are happy, and you can be rich. I'm even happier if some people have a little thought in their hearts and want to run away or something.
Life is so dull, killing someone to relieve boredom is a rare pastime! ”
After speaking, Cheng Ming didn't care about their reactions, waved his sleeves, and directly put them into the carry-on space.
A group of people disappeared suddenly, startling the old man Xing and the coachman, the two glanced at each other, lowered their heads in unison, and didn't dare to ask anything.
Feeling the sudden appearance of this group of people in the space, their faces were full of confusion, sobered up, waved their sleeves and turned around: "Let's go, let's go home too!" ”
The hat-bearer once again loaded the wagon and returned to the foot of the mountain with neat steps.
With an explosion at the top of the mountain, the few pieces of gunpowder that the bandits treasured burst open, destroying the entire cottage in an instant.
In the midst of the flames and black smoke, the horses neighed softly, pulling the carriage with small steps, and embarked on the way home.
---
Fifteen miles outside Shunxiang Fort, Yang Nan sat on the side of the road with seven bodies of blood, everyone panting and exhausted.
Not far ahead, a convoy of men had been killed and wounded, and the corpses of a large number of officers and men were lying on the ground, and blood was spilled everywhere.
A war horse with a broken horse's head at the front was shocking, and a large amount of blood gushed out, dyeing the deputy Qianhu who was dressed in a general's official uniform red inside and out.
It's a pity that he can't see such a fancy color himself.
Because the head of the deputy Qianhu was more than ten steps away, it was placed on the ground upright, facing the direction of the setting sun, quiet and solemn.
Speaking of which, he was also unlucky, not long after he ran away from Cheng Ming, he immediately got involved with a group of fox friends and dog friends.
Before he could figure out what was going on, Yang Nan led a group of people to kill, and without saying a word, he attacked and directly beat these people.
The hasty counterattack, where is the opponent of these veterans, and they were really killed like chopping melons and vegetables, and finally died in vain.
Yang Nan gasped, looked at the familiar head in a daze, and asked, "This, why does it look like the brain of Lord Deputy Qianhu......
The person next to him grabbed his shoulder suddenly, shook his head and said, "My lord, you are mistaken, it's just a gang of bandits!" Linbao's management team communicated with foreign enemies, and wanted to use the bandits to send news to Houjin, but the adults saw through it, killed him on the spot, and smashed his plot, which is a credit! ”
"Uh...... It doesn't matter if you kill a management team, the adults above don't look at it at all, but the deputy Qianhu adults ......"
One of his subordinates struggled to stand up and said, "My lord is worried, and my subordinates will deal with it." What do you think of having them fight each other to the death? ”
Yang Nan's eyes lit up and said, "You mean?" ”
"That's right! Lord Deputy Qianhu was aware of the conspiracy of the thieves in advance, and did not hesitate to lead the team to rush and kill, but because of the enemy's concentrated fire attack, he was outnumbered and unfortunately died on the spot. The adult was overwhelmed with grief, and led his subordinates to chase and kill the thieves frantically regardless of their own casualties, and finally won a complete victory! ”
"Haha, that's it, you kid has two hits!"
Yang Nan got up and shouted: "Come on, go and sort out the corpse of Lord Deputy Qianhu, and give me a little sadness and grief on my face, let's go to report the funeral!" ”
Everyone giggled and responded: "Don't worry, my lord, it won't hurt you!" ”
---
A fast horse rushed into Shunxiang Fort, and the flag planted behind the soldier who reported the news, covered with blood, his face was hideous and melancholy, and he rushed all the way into the guard.
Three days later, the deputy Qianhu Lord fought bravely to kill the enemy, but because he was ambushed by the thieves, the news that he was outnumbered and died bravely spread all over the radius.
In addition to the headache of thousands of households, they don't know how to explain, and the big and small officials in the nearby ten miles and eight towns are secretly happy in their hearts.
This bastard who eats people and doesn't do anything is finally dead, and his life will be much better in the future.
I just don't know who will take over this bastard, and if another greedy one comes up, what should I do?
With such a comfortable and apprehensive mood, time passed little by little, and the news of the above appointment has not been transmitted, and everyone waited and waited, so they didn't care much.
The time soon entered September, the autumn sowing cultivation has been completed, and a green sprout has appeared on the wasteland, which is lovely to show in the wind.
Cheng Ming's grain store finally opened a second branch, which is more or less famous in the nearby towns and villages.
However, it is still a small size in size, and in a remote location, there is no competition at all, so few people come to find trouble.
Occasionally, some blind military households came to the door, and they also returned with blood on their faces, and the ruffians and hooligans trembling and did not dare to move at all.
The news of the sudden extermination of Xishan has spread all over the radius, and the people are ecstatic, asking God to worship Buddha one by one, whether it is Putuo's manifestation that saved them.
There is no spirit of seeking truth from facts at all.
The border army paid a little attention to it, and a person went to check it, and found that it had all turned into ashes, and after looking for a day and a night, he didn't find even a single hair, and then it was gone.
Cheng Ming got cheap and got a large group of people, so naturally he was not interested in shouting everywhere, and making a fortune in a muffled voice was the best way.
The carry-on space is not small, throw this group of people to the orangutans, and then Cheng Ming does not care more, occasionally add a batch of food, so that they will not starve to death.
There are more than 100 of these people, and they can't get out of the portable space that is called heaven and earth.
There is a threat of gorillas not far away, so holding together is more or less combative.
From that day on, the gang became a copy of the gorilla.
Every now and then, a few orangutans will come running over and challenge the two sides to fight.
There are many ways to fight, and basically the orangutans face a siege.
20 against one, or even 50 against one, the two sides each hung their own lottery, and then halftime, waiting for the next day!
There were no weapons in the carry-on space, and both sides fought empty-handed.
The bandits were very busy trying to get some branches sharpened and sharpened as weapons.
But the trees here grew tall and large, not as strong as wood, and they had no tools at hand, so more than 100 people fought with a tree for three days, and did not get a fork, and finally gave up.
When the two sides go to war, they can only use their fists as weapons.
Joining a group of people, the gorilla's evolution speed has significantly accelerated.
Both sides take turns sending people to farm the dungeon, and the experience gained is shared by both sides.
Then, after the skill is upgraded, the two sides will continue to work and use the previous way to filter the appropriate combat style.
The speed of the upgrade has been significantly faster.
Cheng Ming even discovered an orangutan that could think like a human and initially establish values in his mind.
He was very happy with that!
The bandits also have unrealistic fantasies about trying to escape from here, and often see a group of people groping their way to the edge, trying to find an exit.
Unfortunately, this is not possible.
They were greeted only by helpless despair.

On this day, Cheng Ming sat leisurely in the courtyard drinking tea, and Han San Dong Dong ran in and brought in a person.
Cheng Ming was a little surprised, and smiled and said, "Yo, why did you have time to come to me?" ”
Yang Nan scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "Some want to be a big brother, so I brought a jar of good wine, let's have a drink??" ”
Cheng Ming glanced at him with interest and nodded.
is obviously an upright man, and he doesn't know who to teach, so he makes a little hypocritical.
But it's no wonder that as long as you enter the big dye vat of officialdom and want to come out innocently, it is absolutely impossible.
No matter how the appearance changes, how the way of dealing with the world changes, as long as the original heart remains unchanged, this person is not bad to the root.
To be honest, Yang Nan is just an idle chess game casually, whether it can work or not, it doesn't matter to Cheng Ming, his foundation still depends on the system after all.
The food and drinks were quickly served, and a table was full.
Han San sent a jar of aged daughter red, this is the wine brought by Yang Nan.
Knock open the mud seal and pour a big bowl for everyone, Han San retreated, there were still a lot of things ahead of him.
In the past two days, I am preparing to open a third branch, and I am doing some counseling for the storekeeper, and the time is very tight!
Yang Nan looked back at Han San and said, "Brother Cheng, what is the housekeeper's surname?" ”
Cheng Ming was slightly stunned, "I really didn't ask about this, why are you suddenly interested in this?" ”
"No, I just heard a message once in a while, and I thought it was interesting." Yang Nan said with a smile: "It is rumored in Zhuangzi that Han San's original surname was Lin, and he was originally born in a wealthy family. It's a pity that when he was a child, his father could only take his family to Jiubian to beg for a living.
Originally, the business had improved somewhat, but it was ransacked by bandits in Xishan, and finally his father fell seriously ill and vomited blood and died.
As soon as the pillars fell, this family was really scattered, at that time Han San seemed to be only four or five years old, I don't know where I ran to, and I ran back after more than ten years in a blink of an eye. ”
Yang Nan smiled, with a meaningful meaning in his eyes: "I heard that the bandits in Xishan two days ago were suddenly exterminated, and they were killed cleanly, and the house was also collected in a white land." I'm afraid this is Brother Cheng's handiwork. Your housekeeper is not simple! ”
As soon as these words came out, Cheng Ming became interested, looked him up and down, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, it's three days of Shibei, and you should be impressed." That upright young man would even talk around the bend today. Well, you don't have to mess with these fools, just tell me, what's the matter with me today? ”
