The sky finally cleared, and the mountain bandits also built a road down the mountain. didn't dare to continue to stay at Jianmen Pass for a long time, Su Ren climbed down the mountain with people. The three words that came out when the thorns walked last night, Su Ren never figured out what they meant. Liujiazhai sounds like a place name, but no one knows what Liujiazhai is near after asking all the mountain bandits.

Since the thorns can speak, there must be something in them. With a thorny temper, if you want to kill him, you will have to kill him a long time ago, and you don't need to do anything to make a fool of yourself. There must be some other reason for saying this Liujiazhai, or is it Hou Jian, that guy is hiding in Liujiazhai?

Wildfires are the most difficult to prevent, the most mysterious, and the least predictable. Looking at the scorched earth, Su Ren frowned: "This is Liujiazhai?" ”

Leng Jun nodded: "The locals said yes, this was originally a small village, there were only a few families, twenty or so people, these people rarely deal with outsiders, except for necessary things such as salt, they are basically self-sufficient, there is no record of them in Jiange County, it can be said that these people have never existed." ”

"I really thought I was living in a paradise!" Su Ren smiled bitterly: "What about people? And what about the two dozen or so? ”

"All burned to death! It was burned to death after being killed, and twenty-three corpses were found in the ashes, both men, women, and children, do you say that Hou Jian is crazy, and he actually attacked these villagers who have no quarrel with the world! ”

"He's not crazy, he doesn't want to reveal his whereabouts, only the dead can keep secrets!" Su Ren took a deep breath, and a burning smell poured from his nose into his lungs: "Hou Jian is getting calmer and calmer, and he has become a pure killer, hey!" If a person becomes like this, then he should also die. ”

Leng Jun gritted his teeth, although he couldn't bear to create more killing karma, he had never had a good impression of the wicked. If Hou Jian did such a thing that was punished by God, he could only use death to offset his sins.

Hawking came on horseback, and the big black horse snorted, covered in sweat, and ran for a whole day, looking for the whereabouts of Hou Jian and others. Without waiting to jump off the warhorse, Leng Jun couldn't wait to ask: "How is it?" Did you find it? ”

Hawking's bitter face: "I have walked all the roads leading to various places, and I have inquired wherever there are people, and no one has seen any strangers leaving, they must still be in a radius of fifty miles, hiding somewhere, ready to do something to us." ”

"No trace at all?" Leng Jun said strangely: "When did Hou Jian's subordinates have such a powerful person?" ”

Hawking shook his head: "Someone saw a group of strangers enter here more than ten days ago, the number of them is about thirty, each riding a horse, bringing a large number of goods, all of them are young offspring, it is estimated that it is Hou Jian's group." ”

"It's getting more and more interesting to come blatantly, convince a mountain bandit, slaughter a village, and then disappear."

Hawking and Leng Jun looked at Su Ren, not understanding why Su Ren said this. Hou Jian and they are no strangers, since the last time Chengdu suppressed bandits, I heard that they went to Huainan Kingdom, and this time they came back with an elite team, naturally they wanted to seek revenge. It's just that they didn't expect that Hou Jian would become so powerful and so mysterious.

"What's next?" Hawking asked.

Su Ren said: "What should I do?" He hid to deal with us, and he will eventually come back to us, pack up his things, and continue north. ”

Leng Jun nodded: "Yes, as long as we are vigilant and don't be attacked by others." ”

Leaving Liujiazhai, we returned to the main road, where the horse team waited. The group set off again and continued north. Since knowing the tragedy of Liujiazhai, there has been a lot less laughter and laughter, and everyone has just buried their heads in the road all day. The misery of Liujiazhai made them chill for them who were once bandits, which Su Ren felt strange. I asked a few old guards to understand the reason.

Although the mountain bandits have a violent temperament, they kill people when they see them and rob things when they see them. However, mountain bandits also have the rules of mountain bandits, not killing everyone and robbing everything. Among the mountain bandits in Shuzhong, there is such a saying, marry relatives and enter the burial, wait and see from afar; The total horn and the nail son, you don't have to die when you see it. It means that the mountain bandits who marry relatives and go out of the funeral will not rob, and they cannot spoil other people's major affairs. The second sentence is that dolls under the age of thirteen and the elderly over sixty years old cannot be killed, killing children cannot be done, and killing the elderly is not authentic.

However, Hou Jian's people were so inhumane that more than 20 people in Liujiazhai were all executed, whether it was an infant child or an elderly person, none of them were spared. A ruthless person who is more ruthless than a bandit can only be described as a bird ~ beast.

After walking silently all day, before the sun set, Su Ren ordered to set up camp. Now that it is known that there are people watching around, the camp is arranged in the manner of the barracks. Su Ren and his daughter's tent were in the middle, and guards were arranged around them, and the sentry posts were also extremely hidden. After arranging everything, Su Ren called Leng Jun, Hawking, Ying Guangji, Su Kai and Dong Qian into his tent.

A nearby sketch was placed on the table, and the drawing was so bad that it couldn't get into the eyes of a few people. Su Ren pointed to a blank space and said: "This is the open land where our camp is located, there is a forest in the east, a river in the south, a mountain in the west, and the mainland in the north, so the main place we want to defend is in the north, I mean......"

"Big brother, this place is far away from the woods, even if someone hides inside, as long as they come out, they will be discovered, the crossbow in our hands is not vegetarian, Hou Jiancai will not be so stupid!"

"Less nonsense, listen to me before you give your opinion!" Su Ren glared at Hawking fiercely: "The more impossible the place, the easier it is to be ignored by us, Hou Jian is not stupid, but now he has become ruthless, no one knows where he will attack, the day is fine, the night is the most dangerous time, I decided to divide the guards and Ying Gongzi's people into two, and send thirty people to garrison the north, Ying Gongzi's men can touch the forest and ambush him, as long as someone comes, we will give him a front and back attack, what do you think?" ”

"Only twenty people on the other three sides? There are only six people on one side, in case ......" Leng Jun frowned, their whole family is here, don't worry about it being a lie.

"There shouldn't be a problem with these three sides!"

"What if?" Grim and unrelenting.

Su Ren lowered his face: "In case, I will give your wife and children their lives!" Throw it away and ignore it coldly, and then ordered: "Miss Dong takes good care of her daughters, no matter who it is, as long as you don't know it, you will be killed, Xiao Jinzi will lead people to the north, Su Kai will take five people to guard the road, if it really doesn't work, let's transfer immediately." ”

Everyone nodded, looking at the sketch on the table. At this time, it seems that the surrounding terrain suddenly jumps on the paper and comes to life.

"What about me?" Seeing that everyone was leaving, Leng Jun hurriedly asked.

"You can take care of your wife and children, and if you feel dangerous, take some things, and you can find a safe place to camp." Su Ren's cold eyes made Leng Jun very angry.

"Let's go!" With a cold snort, Leng Jun lifted the curtain and walked out of the tent.

Hawking wanted to shout Leng Jun, but was stopped by Su Ren. Ying Guangji on the side glanced back at his old servant, and the old servant nodded slightly. The general battle plan has been finalized, and the next moment is to witness the miracle. That being said, whether Hou Jian is really hiding in the forest and waiting for an opportunity to move, no one knows the bottom of his heart. Su Ren sat silently in the tent, and the tragic image of Liujiazhai kept flashing in front of him.

"Lao Huang, get me some water, I want to wash my face!"

Huang 13 agreed and walked out of the tent. Taking advantage of Huang Shisan's absence, Liu Gao sneakily came in and handed a bamboo slip to Su Ren: "Sir, this is what you want, it has been confirmed that the people of Liujiazhai are a strange soldier who stayed in the Sword Pavilion Road when Taizu was there, and a large number of armor was found in the cave not far from Liujiazhai, which was very deeply hidden and well preserved, but no money was found." ”

"Has Hou Jian's purpose for coming to Shuzhong this time been clear?"

Liu Gao shook his head: "Not yet, I only know that the King of Huainan sent Hou Jian to Shuzhong, saying that there is an important task." ”

"Continue to investigate, you must figure it out, Liu An always wants to be the emperor, every step of his plan will be related to the purpose, how to be the emperor? Naturally, there are soldiers and food, how can there be soldiers and food? One word money! Su Ren thought for a while, and then said: "Liu Bang became the king of Hanzhong, and there were three generals of the Qin State to guard him, a Han Xin may not be able to reassure him, if he does not leave a way back, he will never go out of Hanzhong, you know what I mean?" ”

"The villain understands, I'll arrange it!"

Su Ren nodded: "Is there any news of Hou Jian?" ”

Liu Gao immediately became excited, took two steps forward, and came to Su Ren: "I have found it, it is only about three miles away from us, and there is a small valley in the southeast, all of which are there!" ”

Su Ren smiled and said: "You are really a genius of intelligence, Xiao Jinzi searched everywhere for a whole day, but he didn't find it, but you are clear." ”

Liu Gao also smiled: "This is not the credit of the villain, two years ago, Mr. let us expand outward, especially in Huainan and Wuyue, and now it is time to produce results, this time there is one of our people among the dead soldiers led by Hou Jian." ”

"Hahaha...... it seems that King Huainan is also old and confused! Do a good job, continue to follow our plan, when there is nothing in the world that you don't know, then none of us are afraid! ”

"Whoa!"

Huang Shisan brought water, Su Ren washed his face, and immediately became refreshed. Huang Shisan looked around to see if there was anyone, and quietly put it in Su Ren's ear and said: "My subordinates saw that Leng Dao Chang went to Win Guangji's tent, and the surname Win was definitely not good." ”

Su Ren threw down Jinpa, who wiped his face: "It's on the line so soon, and you still have some skills to win Guangji!" Don't worry about the second child, you all remember, the second child will never betray me! There's nothing to do, don't be nosy, go pour the water, let's go find the little gold, it's dark, and everything should begin. ”
