Chapter Thirty-Nine: Appearance

"Brother Shi also saw that in the land of Lingzhou, the mountains and rivers are treacherous, the people's hearts are tricky, and the local tyrants and gentry, corrupt officials and corrupt officials are rampant, and it is difficult to walk on the right road. If a group of boys were really willful, how would the Brotherhood thrive? How can that giant monster be tamed by ordinary people? ”

Xie Jinan took a sip of wine, looking confident, with a chuckle on his face. As a learned scribe, Xie Jinan was well-informed, and his wisdom was naturally not low, and he calmly observed what the Brotherhood was doing, and soon found that there were some ways to do it.

Zhou Shizhi nodded in agreement, shook his head and said with a wry smile: "One leaf obstacle, one obstacle, I only heard of the notoriety of the brotherhood, and I saw these boys acting nonsense, but they were too taken for granted, and now that I think about it, I am not interesting!" ”

"Brother Shi, you don't have to be presumptuous, you are extremely intelligent, but you are following the noble and righteous path, and when you encounter this extraordinary method, it is naturally difficult to detect."

Xie Jin'an was relieved, and Zhou Shizhi also raised his spirits and said, "I just don't know who is behind these kids?" ”

"There are many strange people in the world, living in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and in the city, Lingzhou naturally has such characters."

"If you are destined to meet, you must make friends and drink a few glasses." Zhou Shizhi had a drink and made friends with hermits, which has always been an elegant thing that scribes like to do, and there are many stories in history.

"I'm afraid this matter is a little difficult, such a person, I'm afraid he doesn't like to be famous, otherwise there won't be any rumors at all."

Zhou Shizhi sighed and said: "Alas, now there is a miasma of smoke in the court, so that great sages and celebrities like Brother Jin An are also mostly secluded and idle, and they are not allowed to show their ambitions......"

"Brother Shi, don't talk about government politics, drink and drink!" Xie Jinan hurriedly interrupted Zhou Shizhi, and he needed to know that the disaster came out of his mouth.

Zhou Shizhi realized that he was out of shape, and quickly changed his words: "Yes, yes, drink and drink, the old man has lost face today, and he won't pretend anymore, it's rare to have food and wine, and he must not get drunk and not return!" ”

Xie Jinan and Zhou Shizhi are the two of them, the two of them are the highest, and the others at the table just listened silently, seeing that the two of them were talking about things, thinking about it, they only felt that it was very reasonable.

"Zheng Baihu, you are very strict with your son, have you ever seen that master?" Xiao Qingyun asked in a low voice, he has not been back from a study tour for a long time, and going out to study is not such a chic and happy thing as he imagined, he was born in Lingzhou, just a bachelor, he is shy in his pocket, and he has suffered a lot of white eyes outside, and now he is admitted to Xiushi, and he has no feeling of being high-spirited and arrogant, compared with those scribes from wealthy families or the children of famous scholars, an ordinary scribe is not bullshit. It's his own son Xiao Tianbao, originally this kid didn't study well, he was still a little angry, and now he sees the huge industry of the Brotherhood, after today, it can be regarded as a complete foothold on the ground in Lingzhou, and it can be regarded as rich and powerful, if it is by studying, I don't know how many years it will take, so Xiao Qingyun is also happy to see the Brotherhood gain power.

"Where have I seen any masters?! I don't care about these kids. ”

Zheng Baihu rolled his eyes and poured a sip of wine into his mouth, he was frightened when he saw the white-haired giant monster just now, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses. Although he knows some secrets of a few kids, he doesn't know much, Zheng Biao's mouth is very strict, and Zheng Baihu has always tried to control his mouth, no matter what others ask, he can't say clearly.

"Dad, you just relax, you didn't hear Mr. Jin An and Mr. Shi Zhi say that there are masters behind those kids, since there are masters to guide them, those things will not be the turn of us ordinary people to worry about, don't think about it when you are old, and enjoy peace of mind in the future."

Xiao Qingyun comforted Old Man Xiao, even if the crisis is resolved, Old Man Xiao is still a little worried, a few boys got such a white-haired monster, don't cause any trouble. Xiao Qingyun persuaded him like this, he also felt reasonable, he was in a hurry to get angry about this group of boys offending the Zhennan General's Mansion during this time, running back and forth, Xiao Tianfu and Xiao Tianbao both said that it was okay, he didn't listen, and he didn't help, these boys solved it easily, it's just that these kids' practices are really domineering, not in line with his concept, if the way of dealing with it can be gentle, it would be better to leave some leeway. However, the matter has come to this point, he also feels that there is no need to think about it, Old Man Xiao does not have too many extravagant hopes, those boys in the family are working in the brotherhood, and the family can get a little bit of light, and life is better, it is enough.

However, some people don't think so, some of the few people who accompanied Old Man Xiao felt that it was a pity, the brotherhood had such a big industry, as the elders of those boys, they could only watch with their eyes, watching a lot of gold and silver spill out, and they couldn't lose a penny, and they felt uncomfortable in their hearts, they were really a little angry, why did they get rich just this group of wild boys who seemed to be unproductive? ! Can't figure it out, can't figure it out! Of course, in front of Old Man Xiao, they didn't dare to show dissatisfaction.

With the new dishes brought up, everyone on the table also put down their minds, attracted by these dishes, a few glasses of wine down, do not say those who have not, toast each other to persuade each other, staggered, joyful, the gold and silver on the table at this time also distributed, and began to distribute some candies, gifts, everyone has a share, a few baskets are scattered outside the wall, causing countless people to scramble.

The members of the Brotherhood and the people who worked in the Brotherhood were also completely settled at this time, and the news that the leader of the Brotherhood had brought back the white-haired trolls was also quickly transmitted.

In the next few days, there was no movement from the Zhennan General's Mansion, and the brotherhood was calm.

For the outside world, for Xiao Tianlei and his gang, there are still a lot of things to deal with, such as the extra new members of the brotherhood, that is, the placement of the snow ape, mobilizing manpower and material resources, and building a nest for this big guy in a few days, outsiders call it a white-haired monster, Xiao Tianlei didn't bother to choose a name, so he simply called Snow Ape Nunu.

When using the snowman knight template, Xiao Tianlei can command the snow ape's every move through his mind, and when he doesn't use the hero template, the white-haired exploding ape is also relatively calm, as long as he is full of food and drink, he dozes off most of the time, in fact, the wisdom of this big guy is not low, Xiao Tianlei has to spend a lot of time communicating with it every day, maybe he can command without the template in the future.

It's not easy to feed such a big guy, he needs a lot of fruits and meat every day, and he also needs someone to clean and take care of him, and now at the beginning, the rest of the brotherhood doesn't dare to approach the snow ape, this thing can only be done by Xiao Tianlei and a group of brothers, cleaning up a bunch of oversized stinky feces, it's not a pleasant thing. The main thing to clean is to comb the hair, but fortunately, there are no lice or anything like that on the snow ape, and the alien beasts have a lot of energy, and it is difficult for the insects on the fur to survive.

As a giant beast, it has strong combat power and some innate abilities, Xiao Tianlei tries to understand, and also uses the Snowman Knight template every day to practice mastering the skills of Snowman Knight, and the skills of Snowman Knight in LOL games:

Spell Fantasy - Every 5 attacks, the next spell will not consume mana.

Devour - Devour an enemy creep, dealing massive damage and restoring your own health.

Blood Boiling - Makes the blood boil of self and allied target units, increasing the movement speed and attack speed of self and the target.

Hail - Throws ice blocks at enemies, dealing damage and slowing their movement and attack speed for 4 seconds.

Absolute Zero - Summons an Arctic storm that lasts for 3 seconds, slowing the movement speed and attack speed of nearby enemies. Deal magic damage to all enemies within range at the end of the storm, depending on how long the skill is channeled.

At present, what Xiao Tianlei can be sure of is that Snow Ape Nunu can use the frozen nature of Gang Qi, the temperature is extremely low, and he hurried back to Cangshan Mansion City, and he also tried the blood boiling on the road, which can make Snow Ape Nunu increase his strength and speed in a short time, but there is nothing surprising, and now Snow Ape Nunu does not know how many people pay attention, and he can't try it indiscriminately. In addition, the old man surnamed Xie and surnamed Zhou introduced by his grandfather, Xiao Tianlei and others at that time also dealt with it lukewarmly and remained estranged, but these two old men were thick-skinned, and they came to the brotherhood from time to time to hang around, with the posture of an elder, looking east and west, asking questions and asking questions.

Xie Jinan and Zhou Shizhi, who brought Xiao Tianlei a little trouble, came to the Brotherhood because they wanted to find out some inside stories of the Brotherhood, but unfortunately, a group of boys were very strict-mouthed and did not pay much attention to many questions from the two, or they answered the questions they didn't ask, and the two of them were not at odds. For example, when I asked about the origin of the white-haired troll, I only replied that I found it on the mountain, if I could find it on the mountain, everyone would look for it, and the strange beasts in the dense forest, if I met one, it would be ten deaths, and if I could find it casually, the world would not be in chaos?!

However, Xie Jinan and Zhou Shizhi are not stupid people, and by observing the Brotherhood, they can also see some problems. Just looking at the scene of the brotherhood's daily morning exercises, I can see some of the good things about the brotherhood, although Xie Jinan and Zhou Shizhi are scribes, and they have also practiced some martial arts, and they have some insight in martial arts, they just look at it, and they feel that the martial arts of these boys of the brotherhood are definitely not low, and they have a great future. They can already foresee that it won't be long before the Brotherhood will become a pivotal force in Lingzhou, but in the future, Zhang Shibi, the governor of the state, is afraid that it will not be good.

Generally speaking, the existence of such a force as the Brotherhood is definitely a scourge, but it is an indisputable fact that many people in the sphere of influence of the Brotherhood have benefited and all industries are prosperous, which has aroused great interest among the two. Especially Xie Jin'an, he can be said to be a more alternative existence among scribes, not a dead scholar, he doesn't like poetry and songs, he doesn't like battlefield strategy, he likes to be a university that has been applied to the world. As a scholar, there is always some ambition in his heart, Xie Jinan can see that now Daxia is singing and dancing on the surface, but in fact, there are frequent chaos and many worries, which makes people have to worry. Originally, it was just an accident to come to Lingzhou, but because of this accident, Xie Jinan got some inspiration from the brotherhood, thinking that as long as he understood the reason, he might be able to solve the troubles of Great Xia.

Xiao Tianlei also realized some differences in Xie Jin'an, and quickly he was like a person engaged in social science research, this set of operation of the brotherhood, Xiao Tianlei learned from some of the experience he had seen and heard in his previous life, although it was a bit patchwork, but it was very effective, and it fit some of the actual conditions in Lingzhou, it was really a big knowledge to study in depth, involving many disciplines, Xie Jinan studied with his knowledge system, it was undoubtedly a detour at the beginning, and it was difficult to get the answer, but, This matter has nothing to do with Xiao Tianlei, he has a bunch of things to do.

Seeing that the New Year is coming soon, most people are beaming, but Xiao Tianlei plans to make some people unable to have a good New Year's Festival, those guys who are ready to move when the brotherhood is in trouble, Xiao Tianlei is looking for these people's bad luck, but, of course, the bright ones can't, they can only come to the dark, masked thief's identity to find and do this.

Today's masked thieves have formed an extremely complete plundering procedure, cultivated a group of looting talents, and more and more Shanyue martial artists have stimulated Gangqi, mastering many Gangqi use skills, with some instruments and drugs left by Xiao Tianlei, Xiao Tianlei and others have done two transactions during this time, and they have been completed smoothly.

In addition, although the joint efforts of the government and the warriors of the rivers and lakes last time caught a few gangs of robbers who claimed to be masked thieves, the bandits in Lingzhou were divided for a while, and now there are several groups of fake masked thieves, many of whom have done a good job, and the style of masked thieves has also learned eight or nine points, making people unable to distinguish between the true and the fake. As a genuine masked thief, Xiao Tianlei and others are happy to see it, which just confuses the public. Therefore, even if Xiao Tianlei and his group of brothers returned to the masked thief's team to loot after a long period of time, outsiders would not seem to see anything abrupt.

However, listening to the report of the other members of the masked thief, in the previous robbery, he encountered a master who tracked his group, and the other party was extremely martial arts, agile, and good at hiding, and was tracked by him for a long time, until he got on the boat, he did not notice it, and then shook off the other party in the waterway.

So, this raid, in addition to exploring the environment and formulating a plan in the early stage, Xiao Tianlei and several brothers did not participate in the specific robbery, but after the start, they scattered all over the world to see if there were really masters tracking their group.

As in previous raids, Xiao Tianlei used the Ice Archer template to stand on a high place to observe everything around him, while communicating with other brothers through a private chat system.

Xiao Tianlei didn't expect to meet any master at once, in fact, he didn't meet the best, but just when he was thinking so, under the cover of the night, a man in black quietly approached.

In the sight of Xiao Tianlei's cold ice shooter template, this person's behavior is not hidden, and looking at the figure, this should be a woman, looking at her movements, she is about to be a character who often does this kind of sneaky things, using everything around her to hide herself, and her martial arts are also light and silent, making evasive actions one by one, and her concealment skills are clever, if it weren't for the special vision brought by the ice archer template, he might not be able to find the other party.

What is the purpose of this person?

When Xiao Tianlei thought for a moment, the woman was already hiding between the branches of a large tree, looking at the others who were looting.

Do you want to catch this person and interrogate him? Xiao Tianlei thought again, but then felt that it was completely redundant, there were too many people with various thoughts about the masked thief, and it didn't matter what the purpose was, the important thing was to keep the masked thief's whereabouts from being discovered, so that they had nowhere to pursue them, so as to respond to all changes.

After observing, the woman's hiding position is excellent, if others are close, they will be detected from a distance, Xiao Tianlei also dismissed the plan to contact others to besiege this woman, although a few brothers who got the hero template have been trying to find a master, but the martial arts characteristics of the hero template are obvious, when doing masked thieves, it is better not to use it, take care of it, and pull the ice bow in his hand.

Sou! An arrow wrapped in blue glow shot out, and in the blink of an eye, it crossed a distance of more than 100 meters, avoiding the barrier of branches and leaves, and shot straight at the woman's face.

The moment she was shot, the woman writhed incredibly, and the arrow narrowly grazed her face, leaving an ice-blue trail of blood, and her viscarf was shot off.

The woman dodged the arrow, made a quick decision, jumped off the tree, and a few leaps took advantage of the terrain to cover herself, and fled quickly.

Xiao Tianlei didn't shoot arrows again, in fact, with his archery skills and the automatic aiming and correction of the hero template, it was not difficult to shoot the woman again, but at the moment when the woman's scarf fell, Xiao Tianlei also saw the other party's face clearly, it turned out to be a person he knew, speaking of which he was still a relative - Qin Jincai's aunt!
