The next day's lunch was indeed eaten at Sun Lianren's place, of course, only Zheng Fan and Sun Lianren ate it, because Siniang was next to him, and he could help Zheng Fan test the poison with silver thread, but despite this, Uncle Zheng didn't eat much, so he also took a look.

Sun Lianren was indeed very enthusiastic, and even took the initiative to let his concubine out to take a nap with Uncle Zheng.

Uncle Zheng refused and continued on the road.

What you see and hear along the way, you can clearly see the Fan family's penetration and control of the area from Lianhe to Mengshan.

If you dare to do smuggling, you must naturally have the blessing of the official background, otherwise you will be pulled out sooner or later to kill the head and sacrifice the flag.

Here, from the boatman to the water village to the captains, chiefs, centurions, and garrisons of various forts, they basically stand on the Fan family's smuggling chain and get a piece of the pie.

He who is a fellow of your mother may not be as close as a brother;

But what is related to your interests is often "heart-to-heart".

It's ridiculous, but it's realistic,

Uncle Zheng, as the chief soldier and earl of Yan State, actually led a group of soldiers and horses to be regarded as a guest in the territory of Chu State.

The rest of the road took another two days, and because of the rugged mountain roads, it was impossible to gallop on horseback in many places, so the marching speed was not fast.

Zheng Fan also thought about the issue of sending troops from here, but he just thought about it, just like why did the Savage King gnaw at the Snow Customs instead of taking the road of Shengle City?

It is possible to walk, but the logistical supply required by the large army for operations, various supports, and efficiency are all destined to make it impossible for this road to be selected as the main direction of attack.

Even Zheng Fan's 1,000 people marching together sometimes seems a little difficult, not to mention more soldiers and horses, the main force is coming, not to mention anything else, once the Chu people pinch with an elite army in front, they can directly kill your entire army, so that you can't advance or retreat.

"Uncle, after passing Mengshan, you can reach the lower level, and my Fan family is at the lower level."

"What do you mean by this, do you want Ben Bo to be a guest at Fan's house?"

"Since Uncle is here, how can there be no gift not to entertain? In fact, the head of my family has already welcomed it. ”

"Huh."

This Fan family is very bold, and it may be no problem to change to the home of an ordinary big businessman, and it may be okay to cater to the scene and flattery, but it is impossible to have this kind of attitude without a little courage.

may be from the perspective of the Chu people, this kind of Chu traitor is extremely evil, but from Zheng Fan's standpoint, the Fan family is still quite cute.

Such an interesting "dog", you are a little embarrassed if you don't give it some bones, and even you are embarrassed to gnaw the meat on the bones, so you have to leave more for it.

Tonight's campsite, in a horse farm, yes, a horse farm in the mountains.

Here, it is a depression between the two mountains, it is a rare plain in the mountain, and there are not many horses in the horse farm, because this is a transit point of the Fanjia business road in the Mengshan area, so it will be much more convenient to have this horse farm.

Although there are also some people from the Fan family here, the armor of the Snow Customs under the command of Zheng Fan is still camped under the command of Jin Shuke as he did a few days ago.

The perimeter guards, the four arches and guards, are all very organized.

Zheng Fan was sitting in the tent as usual, and Siniang was making noodles.

In this situation, there is a feeling that the men of later generations are lying on the sofa when they come home, and their daughters-in-law are busy cooking.

The experience of entering Chu these days is indeed too big a gap than originally imagined, but after entering the lower realm and visiting the Fan family, next, even if he officially leaves the rugged and bumpy environment, he can gallop on horseback.

Ah Ming lifted the curtain and walked in.

He was like an addict, yawning and feeling very depressed.

"Lord, San'er sent someone to deliver the message before, saying that there is no sign of the Chu army moving there in Xiayong."

Zheng Fan nodded, signaling that he knew.

Siniang looked at Ah Ming and said, "I gave some blood on the horse farm, and I will wait for the lord to eat noodles later, do you want me to give it to you?" ”

Ah Ming said "heh",

Just as I was about to speak,

Suddenly,

He and Siniang stared at each other at the same time,

At the same time,

The demon pill in Zheng Fan's chest also trembled suddenly.

"Buzz!"

"Lord, be careful!"

Siniang spread out her hands, and the silk threads quickly stretched out to the top of the tent, and at this moment, a huge arrow had already shot through the tent and came directly down.

Siniang's silk thread did jam the first time This should be used to defend the city's bed crossbow arrow, but the arrow is actually wrapped with a layer of things, the silk thread is very sharp, and when intercepting, it naturally cuts the things on it, and what follows is the splash of fishy liquid.

"Kerose!"

Zheng Fan immediately yelled: "Retreat!" ”

forthwith

Zheng Fan kicked the ground with both legs, and the magic pill on his chest also exerted force at this time, and the father and son worked together to hit backwards.

The tent was not strong, and it was directly knocked open by Zheng Fan and rolled out.

Over there, Ah Ming did not hesitate to turn his back in front of Siniang, who cut off the connection between the silk thread above and himself, and began to retreat rapidly.

"Boom!"

When the oil met the charcoal fire in the tent, it ignited directly, and the entire tent was ignited instantly.

On Zheng Fan's side, fortunately, Siniang blocked the arrow in advance, and at the same time, with the help of the magic pill, he left the "fire field" in advance. ”

Siniang also escaped under Ah Ming's protection, Siniang was fine, but the clothes on Ah Ming's back were already burning.

After coming out, Ah Ming immediately rubbed his back on the ground frantically, extinguishing the flames on his body.

After extinguished,

Ah Ming was lying on the ground a little helpless,

Because he prefers to be shot by arrows rather than burns.

How simple it is to take the arrow, pull it out, one, two, three, four, tinkling;

But for this burn, I have to ask Siniang to help clean up the sand and gravel dust and clothing crumbs embedded in the back wound later, otherwise after the skin and flesh grow, my body will become a sandwich cake.

Oh, and it's definitely a terrible experience.

"There are assassins!"

"Protect Uncle!"

"Protect Uncle!"

A group of armor soldiers immediately swarmed in, and as soon as Zheng Fan got up, he was immediately protected by the third-layer own soldiers.

The armor soldiers on the periphery quickly formed a formation and went out, with horizontal swords in the front row and bows and arrows in the back row.

The Fan family on the side of the racecourse was also passively alarmed, and came over immediately under the leadership of Fan Yongxin, but was directly stopped by the outer armor soldiers.

And this side,

Siniang first scolded:

"Xue San, that waste!"

forthwith

Silver tooth bite,

Looking upwards,

The body pounced forward, and the whole person actually stuck directly to the cliff, and wound the edges and corners with the silk threads released around the body, and the whole person climbed up quickly.

Obviously,

The previous bed crossbow came from the cliff!

At the same time, there were two people who came out of the armor and climbed the cliff with Siniang like spiders, they were the people of Tianji Pavilion.

After the old man of Tianji Pavilion Zeng Shulang took refuge in Zheng Fan, he took his subordinates to take charge of the defense construction of the Snow Customs and carried out the transformation of the siege equipment at the same time, and at the same time, in order to express his loyalty, two of the last three protectors of the entire Tianji Pavilion followed Zheng Fan's team into Chu this time.

The remaining one is Zeng Shulang himself, and he didn't follow.

Jin Shuke's reaction was slower than Siniang's, after all, he still had to gather the sergeants, but he quickly assigned the task.

"Wait for Uncle Protection, Brother Ke Yandong, you take people to the west side, and the rest of the people, follow me to the east side, on the mountain at the moment!"

soon

The armor below was immediately divided into three parts,

Five hundred people stayed behind to protect Zheng Fan and at the same time be vigilant against the Fan family's side,

The rest of the people were divided into two parts, and they surrounded the mountain from both sides under the leadership of Jin Shuke and Ke Yandongge.

Time

The voice of the armor was solemn.

……

"Niuzi, let's go, we don't need this crossbow."

"The owner of the village, how can you not want it, this is the treasure in our village, how can you not want it, no, I have to take it back!"

"Fart, let Lao Tzu go, if you don't leave, you won't be able to leave!"

"Don't go, don't go, this crossbow is rarer than my aunt-in-law, I won't go, the owner of the village, take a look again, is the swallow dog official dead, dead? I guess I'm dead, I guess it's almost cooked by now. ”

"Owner, it's not good, there are swallow dogs rushing up on the mountain road on the west side."

"The owner of the village, there are also swallow dogs on the mountain road on the east side!"

The man known as the master of the village was in a strong physique, and even though it was winter, he was still wearing only an off-the-shoulder leather, and after hearing the report of his subordinates, he immediately shouted at his subordinates who had previously used the bed crossbow:

"Niuzi, go, don't want anything, otherwise the big guys will have to die here!"

The thin man who was called the cow also nodded immediately, stopped picking up the bed crossbow, and said instead:

"Mother, the swallow dog came so fast."

The people did not go down the mountain from the east and west sides, but chose to continue to go up the mountain, the biggest feature here is that the mountain is connected to the mountain, this mountain can not go down, and it is the same to go down the opposite mountain.

However, the crowd had barely taken a few steps up when they suddenly heard a scream.

The owner of the village looked back and found that it was the cow who walked at the end of the year who was holding his neck.

When one of the brothers next to him tried to reach out and pull the cow, he was shocked to find that the cow's head had actually left his neck and floated away.

This scene is too terrifying, because the big guys can't see how it happened.

Immediately afterwards, Siniang's figure was revealed, and she had just climbed up, obviously still a little panting, but Siniang's eyes were full of murderous intent.

"The man who dares to touch the old lady!"

As soon as the words fell, two more silk threads shot out, directly piercing the bodies of the two thieves in front of them, who had no armor at all, so the silk threads entered extremely easily.

"Ahh

"Ahh

The two bandits immediately let out a scream.

Followed by

The two puppets climbed out of the cliff and pounced forward without hesitation after landing, like two cheetahs.

The owner of the village is ruthless,

Lifting the knife, he jumped down and slashed at Siniang.

Siniang didn't dodge, now he is also rising with Zheng Fan, how can the strength of the six grades on the bright side plus her experience and ability of the demon king not even be able to defeat a bandit leader?

"Whew! Swish! Swish! ”

Time

Silk threads are densely packed in front of it.

The owner of the village slashed down but dented, and the force was unloaded, and when the owner wanted to draw the knife, he found that his knife could not be pulled out at all.

Fortunately, the owner of the village was quite decisive, immediately abandoned the knife, and quickly retreated, avoiding the encirclement and suppression of the follow-up silk thread.

And the two protectors of the Heavenly Machine Pavilion rushed to the next target without hesitation after using puppets to torture and kill the two bandits.

There were less than twenty of these bandits in total, and they didn't light the lights in order to hide before, so they were rushed by Siniang and the two Tianji Pavilion Protectors in this way under the black light, and they were directly frightened and lost their regulations, and the rest of them began to flee frantically.

However, because of this delay, they were not able to run up the mountain as soon as possible, and were still intercepted by the snow customs armor soldiers who rushed from the mountain roads on the east and west sides.

Where are these bandits who are these elite opponents who have been on the battlefield?

What's more, the number of people is still at an absolute disadvantage, and it was cut down at the moment, if it weren't for the alchemy, which could scream to keep the mouth alive, maybe not a single one would be left.

And after the owner of the village finally escaped Siniang's attack, before he could walk a few steps, he was held by two armor soldiers with knives, and the two robes who followed up kicked off the cover and pressed the head, completely pressing it to the ground, no matter how much it struggled, it was useless.

Since then,

All but three of the Assassins were captured alive, and the rest were killed.

Siniang walked in front of the owner of the village, and her eyes were full of murderous intent.

In the past two years,

Siniang rarely goes to the front desk to fight, and most of the time she stays in the rear to take charge of money and food, but this does not mean that Siniang's temper has been smoothed out.

The demon king is the demon king after all, how can the domineering thoughts in his heart be consumed?

Jin Shuke was obviously a little afraid of Siniang at this time, after all, even if he didn't look at Si Niang's strength, that is, because she was the uncle's pillow person, it was the identity of everyone's mother, and Jin Shu didn't dare to be disrespectful to Si Niang;

But at this time, he still reminded stubbornly:

"Mr. Feng, let's leave it to my uncle for interrogation, right?"

Siniang heard this,

The sharpness in his eyes gradually faded,

Nod slowly.

On Siniang's side, the two Tianji Pavilion protectors raised their heads, they were also wearing snow customs armor, which was actually no different from ordinary armor soldiers on weekdays, but at this time, they were like two spiders on all fours, raising their heads, their faces were full of blood, but they were still showing a flattering smile to Siniang.

……

"So, it was a group of bandits who attacked me?"

Faced with this result, Zheng Fan was a little surprised.

Siniang, who had just finished interrogating the bandit, replied:

"Yes, Lord, his subordinates used torture, what he said should be true."

The Demon King's method of torturing people, Zheng Fan knows.

Siniang added: "There is no collusion with other forces, they are pure, and they know that you are a Yan person, so they want to assassinate you." ”

"So pure?"

"If nothing else, it should be so pure. They are bandits from Whirlwind Village, and their nest is in Mengshan, so they should have seen our team a few days ago. ”

"Heh, that's interesting."

Zheng Fan shook his head, he thought that a certain force had made a move against him, it could be from Chu State, or it could be from Qianguo, and even, if you guess a little bit, it is not impossible to come from Yan State.

But all of a sudden, things are so clean, it's a little uncomfortable.

Ah Ming, who was sitting beside Zheng Fan, spoke at this time:

"Hey, Siniang, can you help me deal with the wound on my back? I'm now controlling the wound not to heal, it's really painful. ”

The wound is not cleaned, so it has to be controlled and cannot heal, which means that the injury has been maintained, and naturally it has to endure the pain all the time.

And if it is restored, it will be more sour to break the skin and clean it up later, so Ah Ming would rather endure it now.

"Siniang, you can help Ah Ming treat his wounds, and I'll go see the assassin."

"Yes, Lord."

When Zheng Fan walked out of the tent, the sky was actually already bright.

Fan Yongxin asked to see him several times, but Zheng Fan refused, and even when Siniang interrogated the prisoner, Zheng Fan made up for it.

possible

I've really experienced a lot of battles,

I've also experienced it,

After all, I'm not dead,

It's Ah Ming who is injured again,

So there are no waves in my heart, and I can fall asleep quickly.

So

At this point, it was already noon.

Because of the assassination last night, the security intensity on the periphery of the camp was very high, and the people of the Fan family did not allow any of them to approach, and the violators were directly killed.

Zheng Fan walked into the tent where the bandit leader was imprisoned,

Before I even walked in, I could already see the blood stains on the tent from the outside.

When he walked in, he found that the bandit owner was lying there in a blur of flesh and blood.

In fact, this owner of the village is also pitiful.

When Siniang had just interrogated him,

In fact, what he said early on was that "there is a wronged debtor, there is a master, one person does things, one person becomes a husband, he does not change his name, he sits and does not change his surname", this thing was done by Lao Tzu, and no one else instructed him.

And then

Siniang doesn't believe it, with torture, with torture, with torture, with torture, with torture......

At last

Seeing that there is really no second answer,

This owner of the village has been tortured so much that he can't bear it and starts shouting Feng Siniang's grandmother,

Siniang was sure that the first answer before was the real answer.

At this point,

Seeing Zheng Fan come in,

The owner of the village opened his eyes weakly, glanced at Zheng Fan, and seemed to have guessed Zheng Fan's identity, and Siniang was not there, so he was a little stiffer, the corners of his mouth pulled, and he showed a "disdainful" look with great difficulty.

"Why did you kill me?"

"Kill...... Swallow dog. ”

"Presumptuous!" Jin Shuke, who followed Zheng Fan in, scolded.

Zheng Fan raised his hand to stop Jin Shuke, nodded, and said:

"It's kind of a man."

It's been a while since I entered Chu, but I didn't expect that the crisis that appeared for the first time was actually brought to me by this bandit.

"So be it." Zheng Fan smiled and said, "Give you a good time?" ”

Obviously, the owner of the whirlwind village was tortured and scared by Siniang's methods before, and when he heard Zheng Fan's words, his face showed a look of relief.

even

also said a soft word:

"Undertaking ...... Your affection. ”

"You're welcome."

Zheng Fan said to Jin Shuke: "Go and ask the people over there at the racecourse to ask for wine to feed him, and then send him on the road simply." ”

"Yes, uncle."

When he had given these commands,

Zheng Fan walked out of the tent, there was no blood in front of his nose, and he couldn't help but stretch.

At this time, Fan Yongxin shouted on the periphery: "Uncle, uncle........."

Zheng Fan waved his hand and motioned for the armor in front of him to let him go.

Fan Yongxin came over with two Fan family members, and immediately said:

"Uncle, the villain deserves to die, the villain deserves to die, let the uncle be frightened last night, the villain deserves to die."

"It's okay, it's okay."

Since this matter has nothing to do with the Fan family, Zheng Fan didn't bother to do anything to investigate, after all, the Fan family's performance along the way was very good.

"But don't worry, uncle, this morning, the garrison of the first few forts has ordered people to encircle and suppress the whirlwind village, just came the news, the whirlwind village from top to bottom, the old and weak, women and children, there are no chickens and dogs, and please ask the uncle to dissipate the gas, eliminate the gas."

Zheng Fan heard this,

Reached out and patted Fan Yongxin on the shoulder,

Fan Yongxin was flattered and squatted down a little.

Zheng Fan turned his head,

glanced at the blood-stained tent;

"Huh."
