Chapter 404: Mountain Bandits (300 monthly tickets plus one chapter, currently 1/6)
"How can it be!"
Zhou Shize couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he heard this, and scolded angrily.
Doing such a vicious thing in broad daylight, wouldn't you completely ignore him?
What's more, caravans are an important channel of communication between a place and the outside world, especially in the mountain towns here. If the road is cut off by the bandits, it will be even worse!
"Someone, give me orders! Immediately take people to encircle and suppress those mountain bandits, this time I will personally lead the formation, I will definitely let them have a good lesson, and they will not dare to harm others! ”
The master also understood the importance of this matter, and immediately agreed, turned around and hurriedly went out to arrange affairs. This matter concerns the livelihood of the people in the towns, and there is no room for failure!
And now that the soldiers and horses in the city have been prepared, although they have not been carefully explored before, it must be more than enough to exterminate those mountain bandits who are only about 20 people with the formation of hundreds of people.
"I'm going to save this way!"
Just when Qingyang City began to prepare manpower in a hurry, the bandits on that mountain were also quite lively.
At the entrance of a cottage surrounded and defended by sharp bamboo thorns, more than a dozen strong men wearing animal skin clothes and upper bodies were moving all the goods looted before into the village along the path, and there was a man who seemed to be the leader next to him shouting loudly and urging.
"Hurry up, guys! Those boxes have been brought up, don't leak them! ”
"There are still people! Did you bring them back? Don't run away! ”
When he saw a few crying and embarrassed women tied with ropes behind his subordinates, Fang nodded with satisfaction, turned his gaze to the others, and continued to urge.
At this time, a person came over with an excited face next to him: "Big brother, our harvest in the past few days is really good!" ”
"Especially the boxes of treasures last night, and there are several beautiful girls, hehe, now the brothers can have a comfortable life again!"
"That's nature!" The eldest brother smiled smugly and narrowed his eyes slightly, "When I found that caravan a few days ago, I guessed that there must be something good!" But I didn't expect there to be so many good things! ”
"But big brother, what are you saying that their caravan doesn't bring goods, but only a bunch of belongings?" There was some confusion under his hands.
"What do you care about them! Anyway, if it falls into our pocket, it's ours! Even if you take it to save people's lives, it has nothing to do with us! Just enjoy! The eldest brother glanced at him and lectured.
"Yes, yes, yes! Big brother, you're right! Thanks to the cleverness of the eldest brother's methods, we didn't get a single person injured last night, and we took down the caravan so easily! ”
"That's that, follow me, and you'll all have wine and meat to eat in the future!" The eldest brother laughed and patted the shoulder of the person next to him, "You should hurry up and help, don't be stupid here!" When the evening comes, those women are everyone's reward! ”
"Thank you, big brother!"
Several of his subordinates worked even harder when they heard this, and they all seemed to think of the good times in the future.
But at this moment, suddenly a thin and capable subordinate hurriedly jumped down from the tree and landed in front of him, and said with some horror: "Big brother, it's not good! There are many people under the mountain with weapons who seem to be going up the mountain, and those officers and soldiers and the county commander surnamed Zhou are definitely coming to encircle and suppress us! ”
"What!"
The people around couldn't help but change their faces and panicked.
"What a good thing this is!"
At most, they could only fight a dozen guerrilla warfare with the officers and men, relying on the advantage of the rugged mountain roads to defend the stockade. But if the opponent has a large number of people, and it will be difficult to defeat four hands with two fists at that time, I am afraid that the people here will not end well!
"That dog officer!" The eldest brother's face also became gloomy instantly, but he didn't panic too much, but shouted, "Don't be afraid! I have my own way, and I will definitely make it impossible for these officers and soldiers to come up this mountain! If you are in chaos now, will you not be able to defeat yourself now! ”
His words were indeed still a bit of a deterrent, and the subordinates who had planned to flee in all directions slowly calmed down, seeing the eldest brother's confident appearance, and remembering the magical scene last night, they couldn't help but have a little confidence, believing that the eldest brother did have a way to defend it.
Immediately, someone with better eyesight immediately followed and shouted: "That's right, we can't panic, we panicked and didn't fall for the dog official's scheme!" ”
"Let's speed up first, move everything in, and don't miss it!"
As soon as the order was given, everyone was even more anxious to speed up their work, as if they were afraid that the officers and soldiers would soon come to the door.
The eldest brother turned around and walked quickly into the stockade, hesitated for a moment, and then came to the door of a secluded house that was supposed to be vacant, and knocked lightly, with a rather solemn expression, as if there was some terrible person inside.
After knocking on the door for a long time, a woman's voice finally came from inside: "Come in!" ”
This voice has a unique delicate and feminine feeling, which makes people feel their hearts flutter just by hearing it, but he didn't dare to be careless, pushed open the door and walked in, and then closed the door carefully with some caution before looking up at the scene inside the house.
Although the doors and windows were closed and the sunlight was blocked, the interior of the house was only a little dark. Because there was a pale green candle burning on the table, the faint smoke rose up, revealing a strange eerie feeling, and the pale green light fell on the slightly swaying curtain, revealing a shadow as strange as a hanged ghost.
And these smoke also exude a rich incense-like smell, as if deliberately hiding something.
But even so, when he entered it, he could still smell a faint fox smell mixed with incense, which made him frown subconsciously......
"What are you doing here? Or do you want to thank me because of what happened last night? ”
It's still the seductive voice of the coquettish woman before, which sounds very moving.
However, when his mind swayed slightly, he subconsciously turned his head to look in the direction where the sound came from, and the terrifying scene he saw made him instantly sober up, and subconsciously took a step back, and then realized that something was wrong, and barely stabilized his footsteps, but he still didn't dare to look directly at the other party.
I saw a woman in a pink gauze skirt half-leaning on the head of the bed, her movements were very coquettish, but when she looked at her appearance, she was like an old woman with a wrinkled face, gray hair, and her eyebrows and eyes were ugly, and her voice was full of disobedience.
It's no wonder that those who witness this monster are frightened.
