Noon.

Gradually, all the fathers and villagers in the village gathered on the threshing floor, and there were about three or four hundred people.

Huang Yifan selected more than 60 sturdy villagers and took them up the mountain to cut bamboo.

Ma Li and Tang Doudou also selected a group of laborers and went to the left and right sides of Fangwa Village to dig a horse pit.

Liu Zhen asked the remaining old and young women and children to go home to pack some parcels, and just wait for the thieves who came to fetch the gold to come, and then set off for Chen Village.

Dorjee looked at everyone with their own division of labor, but he could only sit on the stone mill and pretend to be a ghost, and pressed his temple angrily: "Mali, if you want to talk about pit people in the world, you are absolutely the first!" You are the king of the pits, the king of the kings of the pits! ”

"Hey, hey! The immortals are too polite, false names, all false names! Horsepower returned with a wicked smile.

Dorjee sat cross-legged on a large stone mill, helplessly doing his priestly work.

In front of him, I don't know when the villagers put a few bowls, there are a few steamed buns in the bowls, and there is an incense burner in the middle, and three incense sticks are burning with green smoke.

In the thin smoke, Dorjee closed his eyes tightly, his face was expressionless, and thousands of divine beasts in his heart ruthlessly ran over and over again......

Dorjee's heart has long been broken.

When everything was arranged, Liu Zhen stood at the head of the Xiaozhu Bridge, waiting for the bandits.

In less than half an hour, in the dense forest opposite, more than a dozen horses slowly walked out, and the bandits rode towards Fangwa Village.

Seeing someone approaching, Liu Zhen hurriedly ran across the bridge to meet him.

He ran a few paces, came to the horse, fell to his knees with a "plop", buckled the thief's head, and raised his head with a look of fear.

"Look, everyone, Brother Liu's drama is fine", Tang Doudou's laughter came from Liu Zhen's eardrums.

The leading bandit looked at Liu Zhen, who was kneeling on the ground in a panic, and felt very good in his heart, it seems that my prestige has already spread all over the world.

"Well, what about the gold?" The bandit spoke.

"If you say that the little one is going back to the king, the gold is here", Liu Zhen finished speaking, took out a small cloth bag from his backpack, stood up and raised the small cloth bag above his head.

The bandit drew his saber and picked up the sack, put it in his hand and struck it twice.

"Bastard! How much are you? Don't die, dare to fool Uncle Ben! The thief was furious and scolded Liu Zhen.

Liu Zhen hurriedly lowered his head and kept talking, "The king is angry, the king is angry, listen to the little one explain to you." ”

"Say it! It's not good, Lao Tzu killed you! The bandit put the saber on Liu Zhen's shoulder.

Liu Zhen was "frightened" and fell to his knees again, crying and saying with a sad face: "The village really can't make up so much, I have sent people to the surrounding villages to borrow money, and I will definitely make it up the day after tomorrow at the latest, and I ask the king to give me a two-day grace." ”

After speaking, Liu Zhen lay on the ground again and kept kowtowing.

"Why don't you fill garlic for Lao Tzu! After two days? You'll be running away in two days," the bandit scolded again.

"We will never dare to run away, if we want to escape, we will flee yesterday, not to mention that the two veterans are still in the hands of the kings", Liu Zhen kowtowed and said.

The thief rolled his eyes and said again: "Then what do you say about making Lao Tzu run for nothing today?" ”

"No, the small one must not let the king run in vain, these twenty taels of gold are for the king, and please ask the king to go back and help us with a lot of good words, don't embarrass us", Liu Zhen finished speaking, and kowtowed more than once.

When the leading thief heard Liu Zhen say this, greedy joy appeared on his face.

He flipped the small cloth bag in his hand, looked at his subordinates, and said to Liu Zhen: "Okay, those two old men won't die for a while." Uncle today, even if I am tired of running in vain, Lao Tzu will come back early the day after tomorrow, if you can't get the gold, don't blame Lao Tzu for burning your Fangwa Village to the ground! ”

After saying that, the leading bandit turned his horse's head and led a group of men towards the dense forest.

"Doudou, horsepower, ready to go", watching the bandits walk away, Liu Zhen stood up and patted the dust on his body and informed the two.

"Here, my brother still has acting talent, and his acting is cheap and pitiful, and he almost believes me", the sound of horsepower came from the eardrums.

"I'll be there soon," followed by Tang Doudou's giggles.

"You must pay attention to safety, act at the right time, and don't be reckless," Liu Yuchen instructed.

"Brother Dorjee said a few words?" Ma Ma said seriously.

"Ahem...... Get out! Dorjee coughed twice, and the voice of resentment came.

-

In the dense forest of Qiyun Mountain, Liu Zhen and the three of them followed behind the thieves from a distance, and Tang Doudou raised his hand from time to time to look at the coordinates of the flying insects.

"Three masters, how do you tell the big boss when you go back?" , The voice of the bandit came from the Tang Doudou bracelet.

"Haha, that's not easy, just say that I promised them to make money!" , said the bandit who was called the three masters.

"Will the big boss kill the two old men?"

"Stupid, how could it be! How can you slander people after tearing up the ticket casually, who will pay money to ransom people! We'll just go get the money the morning after tomorrow. ”

"Three masters, will the people in the village be tired of playing tricks and contacting the officers and soldiers?"

"It's impossible, you see that the three masters scared that kid so much, besides, if they invite officers and soldiers, the officers and soldiers can't live there all the time, and when the officers and soldiers leave, we will slaughter the village and kill chickens and monkeys! In the future, we will see which village dares to report to the official. ”

Listening to the conversation of the bandits, Ma Li smiled and said to Liu Zhen: "Did you hear it, people praised your acting skills." ”

Liu Zhen smiled and didn't squeak, and continued to listen to the bandits.

"I heard from the subordinates of the five masters, yesterday they went to Chen Village with a team, and the village organized hundreds of villagers to protect the village, is there such a thing?"

"Well, with this matter, we can't afford to mess with this place in Chen Village."

"Why can't you mess with it? We have thousands of brothers, step on them! ”

"You know a fart, there is a man named Liu Yuchen in Chen Village, who has a very good relationship with an old Taoist, and that old Taoist heard that he was the teacher of the prime minister of the dynasty, what are we doing with this hornet's nest?" , this is the voice of the three masters.

"Then why do the five masters still have to touch the moldy head?"

"I heard that the second master let me go."

"his second master! Our eldest brother is a good second master, he has only been here for a few days, but he has become the second master, squeezing our eldest brother to the third master, and I don't know what the big boss thinks. ”

"Don't make trouble for me, no one is allowed to talk nonsense when I go back, that guy does have some skills, not only is he powerful, but he also knows witchcraft, you all keep me away from him!" The third master said angrily.

The second master who has only been here for a few days?

"It can't be from the Earth Empire, right?" Mali asked, pouting his teeth.

We came here to get things, except for a few of us, only Speaker Tang Jingwen and Dorjee's father knew, how did the people of the empire know? Liu Zhen was also puzzled.

Maybe it's not the people of the Earth Empire, maybe we're thinking too much.

Don't worry about it until you get there, and adapt to it.

-

Towards dusk, the bandits arrived at their lair.

Liu Zhen and the others hid not far away, and then raised the flying insects and observed the surroundings.

This is a very hidden mountain valley, the ancient trees in the mountain depression are towering, the shrubs are overgrown, the entrance of the mountain depression has a very well concealed bluestone path leading directly to the cliff wall, there is a city gate size cave entrance on the cliff wall, the vegetation in front of the cave entrance is dense, the rocks are craggy, you can't find it at all if you don't pay attention to it.

If you look closely, you will find that there are three sentry posts made of dead wood in the small mountain depression, and the sentry posts are distributed in a triangular shape and can be seen from each other.

There is also a lookout post halfway up the hill at the top of the cave, from which you can see the surrounding area of the mountain valley unobstructed.

Under the tree not far from the cave, there was a large wooden cage, in which sat two dejected old men, who seemed to be the two outsiders.

"Wait until it's dark before you act, and see what's going on in the cave first," Liu Zhen said.

Tang Doudou manipulates the flying insect robot to fly into the hole.

This is actually a huge natural gourd hole, the entrance of the hole is just the mouth of the gourd, the flying insect robot turns on the night vision, only to see the huge front hole, the left side is the stable, there are about more than 300 war horses are eating grass, and from time to time snort.

More than a dozen horsemen were taking care of the horses, and they were dressed as ordinary people, and their clothes were in tatters, which should be villagers who had been taken captive to the mountains.

On the ground on the right side of the front cave, there are a lot of bandits gathered on the left and right, they are either gambling or drinking, and they are very noisy. There are many small pits on the walls of the cave, and there are many bandits lying in each of them.

There are at least seven or eight hundred thieves in the front cave, Liu Zhen is a little surprised, what about the back cave?

The back cave is much smaller than the front hole, there are more than a dozen large stone tables in the center of the hole, and the thieves are sitting around the stone tables, and there are more than ten people at each table.

The whole back cave is very quiet, and the bandits seem to be in a meeting.

There are five big chairs on the innermost high platform, and the middle one is covered with tiger skins, and there is a black-faced man sitting on it, he is talking to the thief sitting on the third chair at this time, and the guy who came to get the gold today is really the third master.

However, the second place is empty.

"Big boss, do you really plan to move Chen Village?" The three masters asked.

The black-faced man didn't speak, just looked at the three masters.

"Then Liu Yuchen is inextricably linked with the capital, if we provoke someone who shouldn't be provoked, the court sends an army down, and we can't make a living," the third master said.

"Yes, I'm also thinking, why is the second master so anxious to attack Chen Village? Yesterday, I actually sent the fifth child to Chen Village without authorization! ”

When the five masters heard this, they were frightened, and quickly got up and hugged their fists and said: "The big boss, the younger brother thinks this is what the eldest brother meant, I don't know that the second master commanded without authorization, if I knew that I would have been killed, I wouldn't dare to act without permission, please punish the eldest brother." ”

The big boss waved his hand at him and leaned back in his chair, "Forget it, those who don't know are not guilty, and the next time the trick will be highlighted." ”

The fifth master thanked him for his kindness, sat back in his chair in a panic, thought about it and said: "I heard from the second master, that Liu Yuchen's family secretly hid more than 50,000 taels of gold from the previous dynasty, and I don't know if it's true or not. ”

There was a commotion in the cave.

"What?! Are you telling the truth? The big boss's eyes lit up, and he shouted at the five masters.

"Big boss, what he said is true!" As soon as the words fell, a man walked out of a cave behind the chair.
