Chapter 107: The Events of Those Years
When you come, the yellow sand is all over the sky, and when you go, the green fields are shady.
When Yang Xian led people to attack the Demon City, the men and horses were simply obedient and only brought the necessary grain and grass. But when I came back, the number was dozens of times higher.
The original 1,800 people, plus nearly 3,000 people of the Kuafu clan and tens of thousands of demons, marched towards Fuyu Mountain.
Fu Yu Mountain is in the direction of the Demon City, if you follow the nearest road, there is no water replenishment point at all. When they came, there were water camel beasts, and there was no problem with the supply of more than 1,000 people. But when they went back, the amount of water that the hundreds of water camel beasts could store was simply not enough to consume.
Helpless, Yang Xian could only take the people and horses to drive away.
The vast crowd walked ahead, followed by tens of thousands of demons. They were all subjected to the secret method of the Demon Extreme Sect, and at this moment they became confused, driven only by the children of the Demon Extreme Sect.
Next to the four-wheeled vehicle, the patriarch of the Kuafu clan rode a brute beast that looked like a pig and carried a longbow on his back, and followed Yang Xian's side.
"I said my lord! You are so atmospheric. Why are there more than 3,000 people, you just want them if you say you want them. My old Tong really admires it! ”
"Tong Gu! Who gave you that name? ”
Yang Xian smiled. The people around him have all been trained by Yang Chun, and their every move is in accordance with the rules, and they have never met someone like this Tong Gu.
"I made it myself."
Tong Gu is good at talking, in other words, he is talkative. I saw him touch his mustache, his eyes were smiling, and his face looked honest, but he was actually very shrewd.
"I was naughty when I was a kid! I was unwilling to die in that small village, so I ran out. Sneaked into the Demon Domain, walked around the Wasteland, and also went to the Great Zhou. ”
"You've been to Da Zhou yet?"
Yang Xian really didn't expect that the old man in front of him had such a lot of experience.
"Yes! At that time, it should have been the seventh year of Jianning, and I was still a hairy boy who didn't know anything at that time, and I wanted to make a big career with a longbow made in the clan. Who knew that it was confiscated by Zhou Bing when he passed the customs, saying that it was a forbidden object in the imperial court, which made me angry. ”
Jianning?
That was fifty or sixty years ago! At that time, Emperor Yuan Xia Chang Mill was still in power, although there were often floods and droughts in the world, but the overall situation was still stable.
Yang Xian was a little surprised, this old boy is not simple!
"At the beginning, I couldn't understand Zhou Ren's words, so I pretended to be dumb. After a few years, I gradually got acquainted with each other, pretending to be a Zhou person, and wanted to make a name for myself. What a pity! Lao Tong and I have the ability, but I can't meet people who know the goods. In the end, he can only be a nameless captain in Qingshui County. ”
The lieutenant was a middle-level officer, and at the height of the Great Zhou, his status was second only to that of the general. There are no permanent generals in the county, that is to say, there is only a county lieutenant above him, and he can be regarded as a general in Qingshui County.
However, listening to Lao Tong's tone, he obviously disliked that this official was too small.
"Lao Tong, I have been a captain for more than ten years, and then Emperor Qi died, ah, no, it should have collapsed. Oh boy! When he was alive, the emperor was not good, and after the collapse, the world did not stop. Fan Junshou of our county is a good man! Teach me to read, teach me to write, and teach me how to be a human being. At that time, there was a great chaos in the world, and there were thieves everywhere, robbing people, money, and food. Lao Fan relied on those soldiers and horses to protect the people in the county, but what was the use?"
Speaking of this, Lao Tong couldn't help but sigh.
"Hateful! A dignified county guard was actually cut off by thieves. Lao Tong, I came a step late, and watched Lao Fan's head being hung on the city gate. I can't be angry! With a knife, he rushed up the hill and cut down the leaders of the thieves one by one. ”
Tong Gu said this, and Lou Jing sighed lightly. He looked at Ye Dongyang, and the two looked at each other, they both had an impression of this matter.
"At that time, the county town of Qingshui County was besieged by tens of thousands of thieves, and the county guard Fan Qing Shangshu asked the imperial court to send troops. But at that time, the court was too busy to take care of itself, and the princes everywhere were busy grabbing territory. Fan Qing only had a thousand old soldiers, outnumbered, and finally the city was ruined. It caused a lot of turmoil at the time. At that time, after the Jingzhou Thorn History, that is, the current Chuhou Caitong recovered Qingshui County, he pursued the thieves, but found that they had already dispersed. After the investigation, it was discovered that several of the leaders of the thieves and their guards had been beheaded overnight in their stockade. At that time, there were rumors that it was Fan Taishou's unjust soul asking for his life, and the rest of the thieves were so frightened that they scattered and fled. Did you do this? ”
"Cai Tong, that old boy is not dead yet? It is really a thousand years of kings. He is just a hypocrite, jealous of Lao Fan's prestige, winning the hearts of the people, and not saving him when he dies. In advance, with the identity of Jingzhou Thorn History, he simply transferred all of us captains around Lao Fan. I thought about it later, this guy should have calculated it a long time ago, and wanted to kill Lao Fan. ”
Yang Xian didn't expect that this old boy's experience would be so tortuous.
Recalling the past, Lao Tong smashed his mouth, a little helpless, and a little resentful, and his complicated feelings finally turned into a sigh.
"The water in Shendu is called clear, the wine in the tavern is really fragrant, and the girl who pours wine is called white! But those emperors are too capable of disaster, and the good country has become like this. After Lao Fan died, I estimated that there was no place to stay, so I returned to the small mountain village and became the village head. ”
"That Tong Da... Uncle! ”
Yang Gui wanted to call him uncle, but looking at Tong Gu's big eyes like copper drums, he immediately changed his name.
Lao Tong's eyes lit up suddenly, and he smiled on his face.
"Little Brother Yang, what do you say?"
Although this generation is chaotic, Yang Gui still persuaded him: "I wait for the Zhou people to be His Holiness." Uncle Tong, you are a little bit, after entering the realm of Da Zhou, don't call it that. ”
Hearing Yang Gui say this, Tong Gu was not angry anymore, and patted his head with a smile.
"I've been in the mountain village for a long time, and I've forgotten what Lao Fan taught me. Brother Yang, don't worry, I will never cause trouble for the lord. ”
At this moment, there was a sudden commotion among the demons behind him. There were too many demons, and the disciples of the Demon Extreme Sect couldn't take care of them, and a phaseless demon took the opportunity to set off a riot and made a lot of noise.
Seeing that the disciples of the Demon Extreme Sect were about to lose control of the situation, Lao Tong stood on his chubby little pig and took out the longbow behind him.
The arrow is as fast as you like, and the momentum is like a rainbow.
With just one arrow, Lao Tong shot the Wuxiang Demon who took the lead in making trouble two hundred zhang away.
"I'll see if any other demon cub dares to make trouble!"
With a sound like a bell, the demons instantly fell silent. The people around Yang Xian all looked at Lao Tong in surprise, obviously shocked by his hand.
I'll go, this range can be compared to a sniper rifle. Looking at the chatter beside him, Yang Xian observed carefully, only to find that the longbow in his hand was actually a magic weapon, and the grade was not low.
This old boy is not simple!
