Chapter 108: The Gambling Contract
"What if the bandits come? After all, we haven't really found help. Gu Xundao.
"I've looked around the neighborhood along the way, but this village is relatively secret, and the road leading to the outside is just a road that you can't see.
So you can rest assured that it will be a bit difficult for the bandits to find this village in a short period of time. ”
Ye Xing no longer looked at Gu Xun and walked into the courtyard of Aunt Sun's house.
The child at the door was still trying to read and write, and his eyes were full of thirst for knowledge.
"Then I can't just hope that the bandits won't find this place, considering that they have already sacked several neighboring villages. Gu Xundao.
After all, he is the village guard of this village, unlike Ye Xing, who is just a passerby.
Ye Xing may only stay here for a while and then leave, but he Gu Xun is not a school
"Don't worry, don't do anything yet, wait until I finish this meal first. Ye Xing patted Gu Xun's shoulder.
"Okay, then you eat first, I'll deal with it beforehand. Gu Xundao, and then walked out worriedly.
If he didn't recruit a mercenary, he would have to rely on himself and the young adults in the village to deal with the horse bandits.
However, there were only three people in the entire village who had stepped into the cultivation realm, except for Gu Xun, and they were not very old.
There were quite a few young men in the village, but there were only about twenty of them, and according to the most popular bandits, there were several hundred.
Looking at Gu Xun's departing back, Ye Xing was thoughtful.
"The environment here is very suitable for the development of forces. Ye Xing muttered.
There are lakes, farmland, and many villages nearby, which are very suitable for low-key cultivation.
The only problem is that there are too many horse thieves nearby, but in Ye Xing's opinion, horse thieves are actually very easy to deal with, and they don't need to bother too much.
Although Ye Xing had already fostered Long Jiu, Long Jiu was still a person from Longshan City after all, and it may not be so convenient to need people to do things in many cases.
What's more, it was still difficult for Long Jiu to succeed in obtaining the position of the Lord of Dragon Mountain City.
And the reason why Ye Xing stayed here was not just because he desperately wanted to eat a meal of rice.
When he met Gu Xun, the words in his mind reminded him that Gu Xun's cultivation endowment was extremely high and he had great potential.
And when he came to the village, he was even more surprised to find that there were actually three people who had stepped into the cultivation realm in just one village.
And he's still very young, and Fu looks very good.
The aroma of rice came from inside the house, pulling Ye Xing's thoughts back.
Weishui Village, the entrance of the village.
A group of young adults stood together, and they were listening to Gu Xun's words.
Outside the entrance of the village, a few villagers kept looking into the distance, as if looking for something.
"Eh, you, are there really any reinforcements coming?"
"There should be, isn't the boy in white already there? And Gu Murashou also acquiesced. ”
"Then why can't I see any signs of human activity? ”
"Eh, you're stupid, everyone else is a cultivated person, can you easily see it?"
"That's true, but will your boy in white also have cultivation?"
Several villagers kept looking into the distance and chatting with each other.
"When I'm done, whoever of you wants to join the fight, stay. Gu Xundao.
"That, Master Gu, isn't there already foreign aid coming, then why do you want us to participate in the battle?"
There was a young man who raised his hand and said, he was one of the three shortcomings who had stepped into the cultivation realm, named Li Mu, and he was the grandson of the head of Li Village.
Although the other young adults didn't speak, they seemed to have the same questions as him.
"Foreign aid is foreign aid, and you fight is your business, this time I can go and find foreign aid, so what about next time, next time?" Gu Xun suddenly found a very serious matter.
That is these young adults who were originally high-spirited and enthusiastic, but at this time they seemed to have lost their blood, and they relaxed when they knew that there was rescue.
Frowning and looking at these young adults, Gu Xun had no words.
He did not expose Ye Xing's lies, but followed Ye Xing's words.
Along the way, he could feel that the villagers were much more cheerful and energetic.
He thought that perhaps it was because of Ye Xing's words that the villagers thought that there was really foreign aid, and they felt relieved.
But because of this, the tense nerves of the villagers relaxed, and even the people guarding the entrance of the village were a little absent-minded.
So he gathered all the young men together and said a lot of words, the purpose of which was to ask them if they would like to take up arms to protect the village.
When Li Mu's question came out, Gu Xun felt that there might be something wrong with the mentality of the young adults.
However, the follow-up of the matter did not develop as Gu Xun guessed.
"Eh, Gu Murashou, don't be angry, we didn't mean that.
To defend the village, we must be at the forefront.
It's just a little strange that we have to join the battle when we have foreign help. Li Mu hurriedly spoke.
All the young and middle-aged people also nodded in agreement, looking like they didn't care about life and death.
"Okay, then I'll ask again, those who originally intended to participate in the battle will stay, and now you can start choosing. Gu Xundao.
He looked at the twenty or so young adults in front of him and stopped speaking.
After a while, no one left.
While Gu Xun felt relieved, he also began to feel anxious.
Without foreign aid, relying on them, I am afraid it will be difficult to deal with horse bandits.
Gu Xun didn't think that he would be able to deal with horse bandits in this way, and other villages were not unheard of in situations like this.
gathered the strength of the whole village, but it was still broken by horse bandits, resulting in a river of blood.
"Okay, keep watching outside, and call people as soon as there's any movement. ”
Gu Xun opened his mouth, then turned around and was about to leave, but he saw Ye Xing sitting on a stone not far away.
Ye Xing finished eating the rice and vegetables, and looked at Gu Xun for a while.
The weapons in the hands of these people are still steel forks and hoes, and there are no decent weapons at all.
"Don't even have weapons?" Ye Xing held a dogtail in his mouth, and raised his eyebrows.
"Are you done eating?" Gu Xun said, he felt that Ye Xing's appearance was too calm, except for the dress that looked like a child of everyone, he didn't look like it in any other way.
Let me ask you, which of the sons of a big family would have a friendly conversation with a group of villagers? Which son-in-law would pay the villagers just for a meal of rice?
Anyway, Gu Xun has never seen such a big family.
"Well, after eating, the rice is really much better than the beast meat. Ye Xing made a gesture of touching his belly.
"Then when are you going to leave here? You must know that the horse bandits are raging nearby, and if you are not careful, you will most likely be involved. Gu Xundao.
"Haven't I already been involved?" Ye Xing said.
"No, you don't have Sakura" Gu Xun was interrupted by Ye Xing's words before he finished speaking.
"Have you forgotten what happened to me at the entrance of the village?" Ye Xing looked at Gu Xun.
Gu Xun: "......"
He remembered that Ye Xing had hundreds of reinforcements at the entrance of the village at that time, and he would protect the villagers.
"Did you do it on purpose?" Gu Xun came back to his senses.
"Of course, I don't care about the horse bandits, I can help you solve the horse bandits, but there is a request. Ye Xing said.
"You?Solve the horse bandits?" Gu Xun's eyes widened, with a look of disbelief.
"Do you know how many of those horse bandits there are, and what is the highest realm among them? Are you trying to find death?" Gu Xun was a little angry, he felt that Ye Xing was talking big.
In Gu Xun's subconscious, he still regarded Ye Xing as the pampered son of a big family.
In Gu Xun's opinion, Ye Xing just came out to practice, and he didn't know the sinister outside.
However, how did he know that Ye Xing had experienced a big battle involving countless forces not long ago.
The thrilling level is far more terrifying than that of horse bandits and the like.
"Don't worry, what's angry, I'm not going to fight the horse bandits head-on. Ye Xingdao, a smile appeared in his eyes.
"You are still laughing, you sons of big families, you just don't know the sinister outside, the horse bandits are extremely fierce, where can you solve it. Gu Xundao.
"Then do you want to make a bet, if I solve the horse bandits, you will do things with me in the future?" Ye Xing looked at Gu Xun, and there was a deep meaning in his eyes.
"Hit and fight, if you solve it...... Wait, what kind of bet, you really don't want to die?" Gu Xun reacted.
He didn't know Ye Xing's realm, but he thought that Ye Xing was so young, no matter how powerful he was, he couldn't be more powerful than him.
