After a burst of smoke dissipated, Zhang Sanping saw a woman dressed in red, frost hair like snow, and a face as beautiful as a fairy, holding a pair of iron snowflake knives in both hands, and the long knife in his right hand was pointing at his throat.

Zhang Sanping was so frightened that his soul was almost gone, and his voice was trembling: "You, you, you are Qu, Qu Caifeng!" It can't be, it can't be! ”

Qu Caifeng had a bright smile on his face: "Zhang Sanping, why is it impossible?" Letting you escape with your life back then, it is not an exaggeration to even take back the principal with interest, the two hundred and seventeen people of the Qingcheng faction died at our hands, and you just went to accompany your fellow uncles and brothers, wouldn't it be great? ”

Zhang Sanping's face was as frightened as gold paper, and because of excessive blood loss at his wrist, he was dizzy for a while, and the long sword in his left hand could no longer hold it, and fell to the ground all of a sudden, his knees were weak, and he also knelt on the ground and fainted. The two soldiers hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, bandaged his broken wrist, fed him two pills, and pushed blood through the acupoints on his back.

Yang Yilong was so shocked by Qu Caifeng's thunderous means that he had nothing to say, and he didn't dare to move, just wanted to say something, but Qu Caifeng didn't look at him, and said coldly: "Lord Yangzhai, let's talk about it later, I have something to say to this Manager Zhang sent here by Mu Wangfu, and please don't open your mouth." ”

After Yang Yilong was said by Qu Caifeng, how dare he say half a word, so he could only nod and stand aside. As soon as he looked up, he only saw another "Shi Mei" standing next to Qu Caifeng. I don't know when he became a tall and light body. Carrying an antique long sword, delicate and refined, like a fairy-like Daogu, with towering temples, hair like dark clouds, skin better than snow, melon seed face, apricot eyes and nose, a pair of delicate red lips slightly thicker. He was holding his arms and looking at himself with a smile.

Yang Yilong wanted to say something, but when he thought of Qu Caifeng's ruthlessness that broke people's wrists with laughter just now, and he didn't even blink his eyelids, he only felt that the hairs on his back stood on end, but he couldn't say a word anymore.

I only heard Qu Caifeng say coldly: "Zhang Sanping, do you know who you are talking to now?" ”

Zhang Sanping replied weakly: "I know that you are Qu, the owner of Qu Village, and the villain has no eyes." I don't know your old man's dignity, I really damn it. ”

Qu Caifeng's face was expressionless, but his voice was as beautiful as a pearl falling on a jade plate, but it was in Zhang Sanping's ears at this time. Every word is like a death knell: "Zhang Sanping, today's answer with me is the most important one in your life." You should know who I Qu Caifeng is. Don't talk about Mu Wangfu, it's the emperor Laozi. The old lady doesn't pay attention to it, if there is half a lie, you just wait for your master to collect the body. ”

Cold sweat broke out on the corner of Zhang Sanping's forehead: "The little one doesn't dare to say half a lie, please ask." ”

Qu Caifeng sneered: "How long have you been here in Rolling Dragon Village?" ”

Zhang Sanping hurriedly replied: "The little one has been here for three years and seven months, that is, after the martyrdom of the Gui Zongrud, after Mu Wangye led his troops to attack Rolling Dragon Village, the Lord of Yang Village surrendered, and then Mu Wangye sent villains to monitor here. ”

The corners of Qu Caifeng's mouth hooked: "How do you contact Mu Wangfu on weekdays?" ”

Zhang Sanping replied: "Every month, there will be a caravan from Muwangfu passing through here to Tibet, and another caravan returning from Tibet to Muwangfu. ”

Qu Caifeng nodded: "Then why did you personally go down the mountain this time and go to Muwang's Mansion?" ”

Zhang Sanping gritted his teeth and said: "This is what Yang Yilong meant, he said that this time the above sent two powerful messengers, obviously the comers were not good, and asked me to report the matter to Mu Wang Ye in person, and asked about the way to deal with it face to face, I think it makes sense, originally I was worried that I would leave this village and would be noticed by you, but Yang Yilong said that you hate me and don't want to see me, plus I broke my finger, it can be said that I am cultivating behind closed doors, so I went down the mountain." ”

Qu Caifeng smiled slightly, turned her head to look at Yang Yilong, although her current smile can charm every man, but in Yang Yilong's eyes, it is tantamount to a judge urging her life, only to hear Qu Caifeng lightly open her lips and ask: "Lord Yang, is that the case?" ”

Yang Yilong knew that it would be useless to deny it today, so he gritted his teeth and nodded: "The surname Zhang is right, that's what happened, but the idea of letting him go down the mountain was made by Ma San." ”

Qu Caifeng said softly: "No wonder so many people can't see this horse village master, is he also like you, surrendering to King Mu's mansion?" ”

Zhang Sanping shook his head and hurriedly replied: "No, Ma Sanli's Kouhutang was not attacked by Mu Wangye's troops last time, so he didn't reach this kind of agreement with us similar to Rolling Dragon Village. ”

Qu Caifeng said with a smile: "This is strange, the Kou Hutang who did not surrender was not attacked by Mu Wangfu, could it be that his backer is stronger than Mu Wangfu, so that they dare not take action?" ”

Zhang Sanping sighed: "The little one once asked Mu Wangye, but he directly asked me not to ask about it again, and from beginning to end, Mu Wangfu did not send troops to attack Kou Hutang, according to the small one, it must be that the backstage of Kou Hutang is stronger than Mu Wangfu, or there is some agreement with Mu Wangfu to do so." ”

Qu Caifeng put away his smile and said to Zhang Sanping: "Who came up with the so-called idea of killing people and selling goods?" ”

Zhang Sanping hurriedly said: "Lord Qu Zhai, you have to be aware of it, this kind of thing has been done long before I came to this rolling dragon village, but in the past, they pretended to be thieves and robbed on the ancient tea horse road dozens of miles away, and then after the Wushan faction rudder was destroyed, they also let go of their courage and openly blocked the road here to rob, because most of the caravans hung the banner of Mu Wangfu, they did not dare to rob, so they often killed people and oversold those caravans that did not hang the flag, as long as there were those who dared to resist, or those who paid the money were slower. Just kill people. ”

Qu Caifeng's eyes suddenly became extremely sharp. turned his head sharply and stabbed Yang Yilong. The stabbing made him tremble in his heart, and he almost stood unsteadily: "Yang Yilong." Can what Zhang Sanping said be true? ”

Yang Yilong's face was like ashes, sweat was like rain, he wanted to deny it, but then he sighed: "That's it, the matter has come to this, and my surname Yang has nothing to say, yes, these decades." We roll the dragon village and the buckle tiger pond two villages, are doing this kind of business without capital, before attached to your Wushan faction, we can only play a little sneaky, the past few years have not been good, we no longer care about the rules of the green forest, otherwise we can't let the brothers of the whole village drink the northwest wind! ”

Qu Caifeng's eyes were murderous: "I won't mention the things of the past few years, that is, in the previous years, when your father didn't die." Can't you live without killing? You don't know the truth that thieves also have a way? If there are no more merchants on this trade road, who will you collect money from in the future? ”

Yang Yilong suddenly roared: "Qu Caifeng, you don't have to tell me that these are useless, of course your Wushan faction relies on that Taizu Tips." There are many powers and wealth, and the government does not dare to touch you, so they only rely on collecting tolls to and from the caravans and the money of each village. can live very well, but our rolling dragon village is located in Miaojiang. is already extremely poor, if it weren't for this ancient tea horse road. You can't survive at all, when you are always there, you will only let us hand over the money every year, but you never help us deal with Mu Wangfu, in this Yunnan territory, Mu Wangfu, Demon Sect, we have to take care of it, where are your people at that time?! ”

Qu Caifeng gritted his teeth and said, "Why don't you mention these things to me?" ”

Yang Yilong laughed: "Mention it to you? What to mention? Your rudder is naturally worry-free, not only can you support yourself, but also support tens of thousands of old and weak women and children, for our sub-villages in various places, you want us to abide by those bullshit rules, and you want us to contribute money every year, you fight and kill the Demon Alliance, and we also want us to help in the war. Is it true that when these villages around the world are like you, can money fall from the sky? ”

"Qu Caifeng, tell you the truth, my father and Ma Sanli were so deferential to your master Lin Fengxian back then, not because she saved us, but because she had the Taizu Trick in her hand that made the emperor jealous of three points, with this thing, no one in the Wushan faction dared to move, we raised the banner of the Wushan faction, in this Yunnan territory, Mu Wangfu didn't dare to do anything to us, so don't think that we have sent people to help the helmsman several times, it is really how loyal we are, it is nothing more than that we don't want the helm to fall, and we don't have anything to do here."

Qu Caifeng sneered: "You are very simple today, why didn't you say these words to our master and apprentice back then?" If you are in difficulty, we can reduce your share of the money or even give you subsidies. ”

Yang Yilong said coldly: "Our family doesn't pay the money, can you still let the family not pay, if the villages don't pay, then how can you maintain the livelihood of these tens of thousands of people in your helm?" Qu Caifeng, from the very beginning you and your master didn't figure out one thing, we green forest people, just don't want to abide by those rules to go up the mountain and fall into the grass, if everyone is benevolent, then when the people are good, why do you need to go up the mountain to be a bandit? You want us to not be strong, and not to kill us, just like letting a wolf stare at a sheep and not let it eat, is this possible? ”

Qu Caifeng's mind became very chaotic all of a sudden, and she never dreamed that the concept that she and her master had adhered to all their lives would be such an ethereal dream, just like a beautiful soap bubble, shattered by this cruel reality.

Qu Caifeng shook his head in disbelief: "No, it's impossible, I don't believe it, Yang Yilong, a few of you have robbed houses and houses, and you have done a lot of injustice, it's just an isolated phenomenon, the sub-villages of my Wushan faction are all good, I send people to investigate and secretly visit every year, no one kills people like you, and does all these things that hurt heaven and reason!" You liar, you must be a liar! ”

Yang Yilong smirked and said: "Qu Caifeng, you seem to be shrewd, in fact, you don't understand human accidents at all, just like you used to come every year to investigate and secretly visit, our cottages have a way to deal with it, like our two families are hundreds of miles away, masked to commit crimes, and then transport them back to the cottage after they succeed, other cottages also have their own tricks, and some will also buy dart games, kill people and share the spoils, and there are more ways to do it, as long as you don't commit crimes on your own territory, how can your patrol messengers see it?" ”

"Tell you the truth, Qu Caifeng, none of the cottages that can hand over money to you every year will abide by your rules, according to what you said, only two percent of the commission will be given for each trip, we all have to drink the northwest wind, and the money for a dart trip is more than that."

Qu Caifeng's body shook slightly, Mu Lanxiang hurriedly stepped forward to support her, but Qu Caifeng couldn't care about this at all, her apricot eyes widened, and she almost glared out of her eyes: "Then why do you dare to rob and kill people so openly now?" Is it because the helmsman is gone, and no one can take care of you? ”

Yang Yilong laughed and said: "Yes, even Mu Wangfu acquiesced to this kind of thing, didn't care about us, as long as we paid enough filial piety money, we can do whatever we want, the profits on this ancient tea horse road are huge, you can earn three or four times more in one trip, those who want to get rich and refuse to pay protection fees, just want to try their luck and take this road, in fact, we all know that from Kham to Kunming in Tibet, as long as there is a caravan on the road, the people of Mu Wangfu will notify us, and we will not rob the team, there will always be a few teams to get lucky. Otherwise, if the team can't pass, then no one will take this road, or all of them will pay the money of Mu Wangfu to hang up their banner, then we won't be able to collect any money. Qu Caifeng, this is the way for us to survive in the cottages below, do you understand?! ”

Qu Caifeng bit his lip, and a row of thin tooth marks appeared under the beautiful red lips: "It's a good way to survive, it makes sense to kill people and sell goods, according to what you said, if you rob the property, you rob it, why kill people!" ”

Yang Yilong sneered: "Some caravans want to avoid our Rolling Dragon Village, and they do not hesitate to go over the mountains and take the path, for this kind of people who want to take advantage, then let his whole team throw the corpse in the wilderness, and leave the goods if they know each other on the big road, people can save their lives, take the small road, hehe, don't blame grandpa for being ruthless!" ”

Qu Caifeng said hatefully: "Yang Yilong, you are honest, how many past merchants have you killed over the years? ”

Yang Yilong hooked the corners of his mouth: "Dozens of caravans, how many people I remember, I have to slaughter one or two of such fat sheep every month, there are always four or five hundred people in total, what, Qu Caifeng, do you want to take revenge on me for these people."
