Chapter 23: A Swarm of Bees
Seeing Ye Xiaotian carrying a knife in, the middle-aged man standing in the hall had a dejected face and asked staggeringly, "You...... Who are you? β
Before Ye Xiaotian came in, the Miao man had already told him about the strange situation in the hall, although he was already prepared, when he saw the situation in the hall, Ye Xiaotian still gasped.
All the people who sat were dead, some of them could be seen in his forehead, throat, chest and abdomen, and some of them were not visible from their appearances, but judging from the way they sat and the blood trailing on the ground, most of them did not die on the chairs, but were killed and moved back to the chairs.
Ye Xiaotian's gaze went from left to right, and he looked at the corpses sitting on each chair carefully, and saw that their deaths were really strange. Ye Xiaotian's gaze finally fell on the big man on the tiger skin chair in front of him, wearing a short spear on his chest, nailing his whole person to the chair.
This person's eyes were wide with anger, his hands on the chair, looking at the posture, it seemed that he was about to jump up, and the whole person still maintained a state of leaping, Ye Xiaotian said: "This person ...... Is it Long Lingyun, the leader of a dragon? β
The man standing in the hall trembled, "Yes! Be...... It's him, who are you? β
Ye Xiaotian relaxed, looked at him with a smile, and said kindly: "The foot is outside the forester, right?" β
The middle-aged man shrank for a moment and replied hesitantly, "Yes!" β
Ye Xiaotian smiled more happily, arched his hand to him, and said happily: "There is no need to panic outside the forester, it is not a thief who eats black and eats black, but an official of the imperial court." This official is the classic history of Huxian County, and his surname is Ye Xiaotian. On the orders of the prefect of Tongren Zhang and the county Huazhi County, they went into the mountains to suppress bandits. β
When the forester heard this, his knees weakened, and he collapsed to the ground, crying loudly: "God, you are here......
β¦β¦
Ye Xiaotian helped the forester to walk while being courteous and said: "Outside the forester." This village is lush with trees, and it is likely that there are still remnants of bandits that have not been cleared, so we must guard against it. This official will accompany you out of this place first, so as to be safe. β
The forester said gratefully: "Thank you Lord Ye, Lord Ye for saving your life, Lin will never forget it." β
Ye Xiaotian said with a smile: "Outside the forester, you are too polite. I won't tell you the truth, Ye is a protΓ©gΓ© of Governor Zhang, so if you count it together, you are your junior. β
The eldest daughter of the forester was a concubine for the prefect of Zhang. So strictly speaking, Lin Yuanwai can't afford the identity of Zhang Zhifu's father-in-law, but his daughter is very favored by Zhang Zhifu, and his status is different.
As soon as Ye Xiaotian said this, the forester felt very cordial, and said softly: "It turns out that Lord Lin is a protΓ©gΓ© of the Tongren Prefect, so we are really a family." β
Ye Xiaotian helped the forester outside, and walked out under the escort of more than a dozen seedling soldiers, and at the same time secretly glanced at Hua Yunfei. Hua Yunfei understood, as soon as they left, Hua Yunfei immediately commanded those seedling soldiers to collect them.
They really found a lot of goods in the cottage, and this gang of bandits was entrenched in the place. Over the years, they have committed countless crimes, although they live a life of licking blood with knives, and there is no tomorrow today, and every time they get money, they must squander it. But there will always be some surplus.
Especially some of the older bandits, they can't help but think of the day when they can't move the big knife, and they will always have to wash their hands in a golden basin. So they started to save money early, and these seedlings searched all their coffin books, and the harvest was rich.
The seedlings took all the goods they could take, and with Ayara wrapped around their bodies, treasures in their arms, and iron pots on their heads, they became extremely bloated for a while, and when they left, their originally light and agile bodies all turned into clumsy and sluggish fat men.
Hua Yunfei couldn't help but have a headache when he saw this, did he have to return to Huxian with this look? He hurriedly sent someone to ask Ye Xiaotian for instructions, and when Ye Xiaotian heard it, he replied very dryly: "Then don't let them go back to Huxian, go back to the cottage directly!" β
The person came and said: "Hua Yunfei also asked me to ask you, do you want everyone to give out some goods to compensate the people who died in the war?" β
Ye Xiaotian said: "No need, you can send a message to Sister Sun and ask her to go to the temple to ask for money, just say that I said it, and the temple will give compensation to those Shengmiao soldiers who died in battle." β
When the Shengmiao warrior who knew Chinese heard this, he immediately showed a strange look, and said in his heart: "What a big breath, what qualifications do you have to order the temple to do things for you?" β
Ye Xiaotian saw his aura, and hurriedly changed his words: "Oh! This is what His Holiness has given me, His Holiness has no last resort, naturally he has long expected that there will be loyal and brave warriors who will die, but they have all returned to Heaven and become warriors by the side of the Gu God, and their relatives in the human world should naturally be taken care of by the temple! β
The Shengmiao warrior was relieved at this time, thinking that the great Gu God knew everything, and he could see in the sky what the devout believers had done for him, and he was extremely excited. Ye Xiaotian saw that his face was swollen red and his eyes were shining, for fear that he would faint happily, so he hurriedly stopped and sent him away.
After the seedling warrior left, Ye Xiaotian turned back to the ancient tree and said to the forester: "Forester, please continue." β
The forester said, "Okay! Then...... I was escorted down to the hall, and I saw that all the robber leaders were there. A dragon sat on the top and said to a person, Lao Jiu, a swarm of people will arrive soon, let's go out of the mountain with them, you take this old guy with you, and take the ransom of the Lin family by the way......"
The forester has been imprisoned for a long time, and he can barely starve to death after a full meal, and no one has paid attention to him all this time. On this day, he was suddenly taken out of his cell and taken to the Hall of Justice.
At first, the forester thought that he was going to be executed, but he was afraid of death. When he heard that he was going to exchange him for ransom, he was overjoyed, but at this time, the person who was called by Long Lingyun as Lao Jiu sat on the chair and said with a big grin: "Big brother, as long as we and a swarm of people make this big deal, we will be inexhaustible for the rest of our lives, and what do you want the Lin family's ransom money to do, just forget him." β
When the forester heard this, he was almost so frightened that he peed his pants, but Long Lingyun smiled and said: "You, you haven't developed yet, so you put on a rich man's pomp first." The leaders burst into laughter.
Long Lingyun said: "Mosquito legs are also meat, why do we have to go through this experience, cuddle the grass and beat the rabbit, and take it with you." Five thousand taels is not too little. β
As soon as he said this, a thief came in and reported that Lao Ding had arrived, and the forester did not know who Lao Ding was, and he did not dare to look back, so he saw a dragon get up from his seat, laugh at the door of the hall, and say, 'Brother Ding, we have been waiting for you for a long time!' ββ
The forester turned sideways slightly, and secretly looked at the entrance of the hall, and saw a man in a kudzu robe, who was blindfolded with a black cloth, was standing at the entrance of the hall, seeing that the man had gray hair, seemed to be not young, and there were two big men with knives behind him.
Hearing Long Lingyun's voice, the man reached out and untied the black scarf covering his face, revealing his appearance, and sure enough, he was already over half a hundred years old.
This person adapted to the light in the hall for a while, and smiled at Long Lingyun: "Master Long, everyone is in charge, thank you for waiting for a long time!" β
As soon as he had said this, his arched hands suddenly slammed back, and as soon as he was planted, he rushed to a seat near the door, on which sat a large man, and beside the chair sat two short spears.
When this person rushed out, there were two muffled snorts behind him, and the two big men with knives were hit in the chest by his elbow, and the whole person flew out upside down, and a mouthful of blood was raised in the air, which was very eye-catching.
At this time, the old man had already rushed to the big man's seat closest to the entrance of the hall, stretched out a big hand, and put it on the big man's head at once.
The old man stretched out his hand and copied it, and the two short spears arrived in his hand, and as soon as his left hand was raised, the forester felt a strong wind passing his cheeks, and it was hot and painful, and when he looked back, Long Lingyun roared, and the whole person was shot through by the short spear, and it was nailed to the tiger skin seat.
Long Lingyun's eyes suddenly opened in anger and he was about to pounce, but by this blow, he was already immediately angry, and at this time, the two big men with knives who were knocked into the air by the old man fell heavily to the ground, only struggled for a moment, and then lost their breath.
The forester was dazzled by the sight of the old man's left hand throwing a short gift, and the spear in his right hand was handed out, piercing a man's temple, and screaming loudly in fright.
At this time, the leaders of the bandits reacted, and they all roared angrily and jumped up and were about to pounce, but who knew that many masked people suddenly rushed in from all directions, and as soon as they moved, they killed the leaders of those bandits like cutting melons and vegetables......
Ye Xiaotian frowned: "A swarm of bees......"
Of course he had heard of the name of a swarm of bees, but he didn't expect a swarm of bees to attack a dragon's cottage, judging from the description of the forester, it seems that a dragon is about to cooperate with a swarm of bees, why did a swarm of bees suddenly poison a dragon?
Ye Xiaotian pondered for a long time and didn't understand what it meant, so he said to the forester: "What happened later? β
The forester said: "In the fierce battle, they also rang a big bell hanging in the corner of the Juyi Hall, but they didn't see anyone outside breaking in, thinking that the people outside had been killed by this group of more powerful bandits, the old man was so frightened that he stood there and didn't dare to move, but strangely, they didn't kill me."
After they had killed the leader of a dragon, a black-scarfed masked man suddenly ran in from outside, and said a few words to a short, masked man who was standing there with his hands in his hands and had never moved, and the big man sneered and said, 'I didn't think he could come here, but the old man underestimated him!' Remove! ββ
The forester spoke in the tone of the black-scarfed masked man, and when he said this, he stopped abruptly, Ye Xiaotian raised his eyebrows, and said, "Then what?" β
The forester said abruptly, "No more, they threw the killed people back on their seats, and they ran away with a hula, just like when they first ran in, and suddenly disappeared, like a swarm of bees." The old man didn't understand what was going on, so he didn't dare to move when he stood there, for fear that he would be hacked to death if he walked around. Just stand like that until ...... Your Excellency, you've brought someone here......"
