The group of thieves has a strong sense of prevention, and Post Wuzheng was put on a sack again, what made him satisfied was that the thief who was knocked down by him did not take revenge, and He Wuzheng laughed at his cowardice in his heart, if it was himself, he would never let go of such a good opportunity, and he must kick the enemy in the ass a few times!

He had gone far and now, and when he saw the light again, he found himself in a cave, and a large fire pit had been dug in the middle of the cave, and the wood crackled and burned in it, and the dazzling red light made him blink as he had adapted to the darkness.

The "centurion" who was extremely wary of outsiders was named "Red", and I don't know if it was because of the red birthmark on his face, and he was secretly nicknamed "Red-faced Thief" by Post Wuxin.

They walked around the fire pit, and the flames crackled and spiraled up to the top of the smoky and blackened cave, the walls of which were half rock, half dirt, but fortunately it was still dry, and many of the thieves in rags crouched by the fire, or leaned against the walls of the cave to talk, and when they saw the red-faced thief escorting the uninvited guest in, they all turned their heads and looked at him vigilantly.

He smiled at them, but was brutally pushed by the red-faced thief behind him, making him take a few steps forward and walk in front of the leader of the bandits.

On a pile of couches carved from tree roots or wood, there sat a middle-aged man in patched clothes, he had a wide chin, a neatly trimmed beard, and his hands were clasped together at his knees, looking very cautious......

Come to think of it, this is the legendary Wei Yao?

"When you see the captain, you still don't bow down!?"

The red-faced thief behind You Wuxin was pushing him again.

You Wuxin laughed out loud: "Although I am incompetent, I used to guard the palace gate for the king when I was dressed in black in Handan, and I did things for my son when I was in Linzi and Jicheng. ”

"Bold!" Hearing the angry rebuke of many bandits in the rear, as well as the sound of the sword unsheathed, it could be seen that they were very respectful of this "captain".

The "captain" who was sitting on top just grinned: "Sure enough, a noble man from Handan, who has seen the world, and doesn't look at us in his eyes, Chi, let him loosen his ties, this is not my Sheep's Head Mountain's hospitality!" “

Although the red-faced thieves were not happy, they were very obedient to their leader, and finally complied, but they still glared at the post without a letter with an angry grunt.

The thief smiled playfully: "I don't know what to call it?" “

"No letters."

You Wuxin also looked up and asked, "You are Wei Yao?" “

"It's me." Wei Yao looked at the post and no letter: "I heard that you claim to be the messenger of Chang'anjun?" We are hiding in the mountains, but we also know the outside news, I heard that Chang'anjun was sealed in Qi County, and I became a neighbor, but the thief and the official have nothing to talk about, I don't know what happened to send you here? “

You Wuxin took a step forward, and immediately aroused the vigilance of the thieves on both sides: "I hope that you can only tell if you block the left and right." ”

"There is no privacy on Sheep's Head Mountain." Wei Yao looked at the group of thieves and said loudly: "We are brothers, robes, and a family. ”

There was a burst of cheers, and the little trick of discord did not work, and the post Wuxin was bored, so he had to laugh at himself and said:

"Er Mountain...... Sheep's Head Mountain is the boundary of Qi County, and the mountains and forests here belong to Chang'an Jun, since you know that Chang'an Jun will be sealed when you come to Qi County, why don't you go down the mountain to pay homage to Shun? “

As soon as these words came out, the group of thieves laughed incessantly, and the red-faced thief laughed the most: "What should I do, it turns out that I am here to persuade me to surrender again!" “

Wei Yao also smiled: "I'm afraid this noble envoy doesn't know that we have occupied the mountain for more than ten years, and there are countless people who have gone up the mountain to persuade them to surrender, the county commanders, captains, and hao chiefs of Zhao Guoqi County, and the feudal monarchs and county officials of the Korean Shangdang in the south have all sent people to negotiate, and threatened to attack the mountains and forests if they do not surrender, and eliminate us, but more than ten years have passed, but none of them have been able to attack the mountain, but our number is increasing day by day, and the armaments of those county soldiers and hao chiefs have been stripped off and become our armor......"

"The captain is mighty!"

"With the commander of the captain, we are invincible!"

There was a commotion in the cave, and Mail Wuxin looked at the red light reflected under the fire, and secretly said that the situation was not good: "It seems that Jun is very confident in his subordinates, and he does not hesitate to take them to death." ”

The scolding was incessant again, someone was clamoring to kill him, Wei Yao got up from the tiger skin, pressed his hand down to stop the scolding, and paced to the side of Post Wuxin, until this time, Post Wuxin realized that he was so tall, more than eight feet by eye.

"Do you know who I am Wei Yao?" He walked over and looked down at the post no path.

"I heard that it was the remnants of the Wei army...... Deserter. ”

"Deserters?" Wei Yi shook his head: "That's nonsense from the nobles of Qi County, I naturally can't compare to the good background of the nobles of Handan such as you, but I just relied on my strength to be a little captain among the martial arts in the east of the Wei Hedong, you should know the martial arts?" That is the elite of the Wei army, can wear the armor of the three genera, operate the crossbow of twelve stones, and carry fifty negative arrows, put it on it, crown with a sword, win three days of food, and go to a hundred miles in the middle of the day. “

"But although the soldiers were brave, the number was scarce after the battle of Yique, and they couldn't keep the countryside. Twenty years ago, the Qin army pulled out Anyi, expelled all those who did not want to be from the Qin in the city, and recruited Qin people to migrate to Hedong......

Wei Yao's face was full of traces left by labor and disease, and he stared at the post and said, "Hou Sheng, twenty years ago, you were born?" “

The post was silent for a long time before replying: "It's still swaddling." “

"So young, naturally I don't understand how much I suffered and how many beatings I suffered in the Qin State hard labor camp, when I was as young as you......"

Wei Yao's eyes were deep, and he seemed to fall into that painful memory: "Finally, a few years later, I killed the Qin officials who escorted us with several prisoners and fled, and the Wei State couldn't go back to the mountains and rivers, so I could only throw myself north to the Zhao State, which ...... expected."

Speaking of this, he stopped talking, and Mail Wuxin asked, "What happened later?" Why did you become a thief? ”

Wei Yi shook his head: "Our life in Zhao is not much better than when we were in Hedong, although we were accepted by the local magnates, we also had to serve hard labor every day, and we didn't have enough to eat...... Soon Zhao was also defeated by Qin, and lost Qi County, we are the remnants of Wei, from Qin Yi to Zhao Yi to die, so I took some old cangtou who also came from Hedong, Wei people, and subordinate concubines to kill the chief of Nanxiang, and brought a hundred people to settle in Yangtou Mountain, and stayed until today. “

The home of the powerful and the rich, the dog eats people and does not know how to inspect it, and the road of the civilians on the left is painted with hunger and does not know the hair, which is also the reason why many bankrupt and landless people are forced to go into exile in the mountains and forests to join the thieves, because of wars, famines, and more artificial neglect of government, resulting in the growing power of the mountain.

Wei Yao ended his memories, returned to his tiger skin couch, and said proudly: "Now, I have thousands of people, who are called school captains, and the nearby Han and Zhaoxian townships all regard me as a great enemy. “

As soon as his voice changed, he became murderous: "I think what Chang'anjun needs to negotiate with me the most is not what to surrender, but how to live in a county with us, and the two sides will be safe!" “
