Chapter 139: Lively

On the night of October 30, the fire that Yan Liqiang set in the Shatu settlement once again made the entire Pingxi City boil.

The people who originally thought that Guo Shanfeng had already left, only to find out at this time that Guo Shanfeng had not left at all, not only that, but the case that Guo Shanfeng did this time was a hundred times more explosive than the last time he killed Wang Haofei in Meiyuan.

The most important material warehouse of the Shatu people in Pingxi City was burned down by the mountain wind, and the silver lost by the Shatu people was difficult to count for a while.

There may only be dozens of Shatu people who died at the hands of the mountain wind, but with the emergence of various versions of rumors, the number of Shatu people killed by the mountain wind has increased rapidly, and in just two days, Yan Liqiang heard the version, and the number of Shatu people killed by him has exceeded more than 300.

One of the most bizarre rumors is that when the mountain wind set fire to the warehouse, there were still more than 200 Shatu people sleeping in the warehouse, and as a result, none of those Shatu people escaped.

As evidence of this rumor, it is said that when the defenders in Pingxi City found out that the Shatu warehouse was on fire, there was already a battalion of defenders rushing towards the burning warehouse in the Shatu people's gathering area, but they were stopped by those Shatu people, who did not want the defenders in Pingxi City to get close to their burning warehouse, and even did not let the defenders in the city approach when they finally cleaned up the warehouse, and the reason why the Shatu people did this was that they did not want others in Pingxi City to know that more than 200 Shatu people in the warehouse were burned to death by the mountain wind。

This rumor spread vividly and made many people in Pingxi City believe it to be true, but Yan Liqiang knew that the so-called Shatu people were burned to death in the warehouse

It's completely nonsense, there is only one reason why the Shatu people don't want the defenders in Pingxi City to approach the warehouse, and that is that they don't want the defenders in Pingxi City to discover the secrets in the weapons storage depot under the warehouse, so as not to add to the chaos.

The fire burned for almost half of the night, and under such high temperatures, the temperature in the middle of the fire could burn all the steel, so there is no doubt that the things that the Shatu people hid in the arsenal under that warehouse have basically been scrapped, and there is not much to use, which is the biggest loss for the Shatu.

The Shatu people thought that no one knew their secret, but they still took a war bow from the warehouse of the Shatu people that night, and finally threw the war bow on the east side of the Jiulong Bridge, the war bow had obvious signs of the Ganzhou Craftsman Battalion, the war bow was an important clue, the first to rush to the Jiulong Bridge that night was the defenders in the city, if this war bow fell into the hands of those defenders, if there were shrewd people among the defenders in Pingxi City, they might be able to guess something through the clues of the war bow, which is also the only thing they can do now, which is a kind reminder......

The Shatu people and the Ye family are in cahoots, and they have made such a vote in Pingxi City, on the land of the Shatu people, no matter whether the Shatu people make trouble or not, as long as they do not return to the case for a day, they can sandwich Ye Tiancheng, the county guard of Pingxi County, in the middle, and feel the huge pressure from all sides......

Therefore, from October 31st, the entire Pingxi City has been full of rumors all at once, and almost everywhere is looking for people who are looking for the mountain wind.

All the arrests in the Yamen in Pingxi City, all the big and small gangsters in the city, as well as the sergeants of several battalions guarding Pingxi City, and even the grassroots officials in the city, and the apprentices in the various martial arts halls, were all mobilized, digging three feet into the ground to find the mountain wind, as for the inspection of Pingxi City out of the city, it was even more strict to unimaginable, not only the people had to check, but also the baggage they carried with them, and all the vehicles and goods out of the city had to be checked.

On the morning of November 1st, Yan Liqiang originally wanted to go to the library in the Guoshu Museum to go around and find some information, he remembered that in the library of the Guoshu Museum, although there were no martial arts cheats, but in addition to those classics such as literature, history, scriptures and philosophy, there were also a lot of miscellaneous books, old things, Fang Ji, Tuzan, biography and other books, he always felt that the metal cylinder he got should come in handy, but he never understood what the metal cylinder he got was, so he wanted to look in the library to see if he could find some relevant information and solve the doubts in his heart.

It's just that what Yan Liqiang didn't expect was that as soon as he arrived at the Guoshu Museum, he was arrested by the Guoshu Pavilion and sent out by the Guoshu Pavilion to look for the mountain wind, which is called "exercise".

The Pingxi County Guoshu Museum let three students in a group, each group of students carried a bow, two ringing arrows, with a wanted portrait of the mountain wind and three swords, one by one hung the waist cards of the students of the Guoshu Museum in a conspicuous position on the waist, and scattered all the students into Pingxi City like a net to find the mountain wind......

Yan Liqiang, Shi Dafeng, and Shen Teng voluntarily formed a group, and they happened to be assigned together.

......

"I heard that the mountain wind is murderous, ruthless, and has a strong archery cultivation, if the three of us really encounter the mountain wind, it is not certain whether we can survive or not, the Guoshu Museum sent us out, that is not caring about our life or death, it is really going to his grandmother's ......" As soon as he walked out of the gate of the Guoshu Pavilion, Shi Dafeng, who was straightforward, scolded angrily," Isn't that the mountain wind just killed a few more sand tus dogs this time, this Pingxi City is so nervous, everyone is looking for it, and the bounty has been increased tenfold, why is it that the last time the mountain wind killed people in the plum garden, the bounty was not so high, is it possible that the lives of those Shatu people are worth more than the lives of our Han people, ......"

"You can't say that!" Shen Teng shook the hair on his forehead in a dashing manner, " After all, the annual expenses of this national art hall are allocated by the county, and the county guard is now in a hurry to catch the mountain wind, and the people who can be mobilized in the entire Pingxi City have been launched, and the national art hall should at least be pretended, so that it looks better in front of the county guard, and will not be remembered by the county guard, and in the future, the county guard will move his fingers, and the cadres of the national art hall can only drink the northwest wind, we don't have to take it too seriously, just go out for a walk, the mountain wind can be hidden so well, the whole person is elusive, and it is definitely not something that a few of us can meet when we go around the street。 ”

"Or Shen Teng, you know, alas, Liqiang, why do you look so weird?"

"Ahem...... Cough...... Nothing, nothing......" Of course Yan Liqiang wouldn't say that when he saw Shen Teng's action of shaking his hair, he suddenly remembered the classic GIF of Huang Bo carrying a flat shoulder and shaking his hair, so his expression was strange, and he almost couldn't help laughing, so he could only pretend to cough a few times to cover up the past.

"No, Liqiang, you are not honest, you must have thought of something just now......" Shi Dafeng asked reluctantly.

"I was actually thinking just now, a group of us are so tossed in the city, will the mountain wind have already escaped from the city, after all, for these giants, the city wall is not a completely insurmountable obstacle, I heard that some people with extremely high realms are walking on the ground when crossing the city wall......

"Yes, Liqiang is right, some masters have cultivated advanced light exercises, and the walls of Pingxi City really can't be stopped, but I heard that the mountain wind doesn't seem to have advanced martial arts, so it shouldn't be possible to have such skills...... Shen Teng said with a serious face.

"Well, it seems that I am thinking too much......" Yan Liqiang said with Shen Teng's words.

"But maybe the mountain wind has some means, for example, if he can use flying claws and something like that, to climb the mountain wall when others are not paying attention, it is not a difficult thing, if the sergeant guarding the city is a little careless at night, take a nap, you can let the mountain wind slip away, and even if the sergeant on the city wall finds that someone has slipped away, he probably doesn't dare to say it, so he can only pretend to be confused, because if he says it, he will take the blame, and if he doesn't say it, he will pretend to be confused together, so what you said may also be a little possible, ......" Shen Teng rounded up again, and after looking at the longbow that Yan Liqiang was carrying, he asked Yan Liqiang a question, "By the way, I have never seen you train in archery, I don't know how Liqiang's archery skills are?"

"Where do I know what archery, I can barely shoot an arrow, whether I can shoot within fifty meters depends on luck, as long as this arrow can be shot, it is for the police, the teacher handed it to me just now, and I will carry it on my back......" Yan Liqiang shook his head like a rattle, and then continued to follow Shen Teng's words and asked the question that Shen Teng was looking forward to, "By the way, I don't know how Brother Shen's archery cultivation is?"

Shen Teng smiled slightly reserved and slightly smug, took a light breath, and puffed up his chest, "Two weeks ago, I just advanced to the First Heaven Realm of the Bow Dao......"

"Wow......" Yan Liqiang looked "surprised" and "shocked", "Then I have to ask Brother Shen for advice, by the way, I think this bow and arrows are the best for Brother Shen to carry on his back, if something really happens, this thing will work much more effectively in Brother Shen's hands than in my hands......"

As he spoke, Yan Liqiang hurriedly took down the bow and arrow on his body and handed it to Shen Teng with sincerity.

"Well, then I'll carry it......" Shen Teng didn't refuse, but generously carried it, seemingly proud.

"I know that there is a place outside Dongcheng, the hot pot is particularly good, I see that the weather is a little cold today, and the mountain wind is also a person, maybe I want to eat hot pot too, why don't we go where to eat hot pot, wait to see if the mountain wind will appear, of course, in order to celebrate Shen Teng's bow road advanced to a heavy day, this hot pot, Shen Teng treated!" Shi Dafeng suddenly spoke.

Yan Liqiang was silent for a moment, and then nodded vigorously, "Yes, this is a good idea, let's go to the place that Brother Shi said, and eat hot pot while seeing if the mountain breeze will come, if he dares to come, we will immediately fire the arrows......"

Shen Tengduo was silent for a moment, and then nodded as well, with a serious expression, "Maybe the mountain wind has already run out of Pingxi City, and it is unknown if it is a gourmet!"

The three of them walked a few steps and then laughed together......

......

At noon, it was already cold and windy outside, and the three of them went out of the city, brushing hot pot in a restaurant outside the east city gate, drinking rice wine, and talking about life, so unhappy......

Halfway through the hot pot, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves outside the restaurant, and the sound of horses' hooves stopped outside the restaurant, and then two people rushed to the restaurant.

The two people who came in were both strong and strong, their eyes were like lightning, they were holding swords and swords, they were wearing strong suits, they had thick cloaks, one was carrying a huge bow bag, one was carrying a crossbow box, and at the same time, they were wearing a red headband on their foreheads.

"Xiao Er, what's hot, delicious and delicious to serve to our brothers first......" The two of them snapped the things they were carrying on their backs and put them on the table, almost shaking the table apart, and one of them just put the things away, and turned his head and screamed.

......

"Ranger, these two people are Ranger ......" Shen Teng glanced at the two people, and there was some surprise in his voice, "It is estimated that they were attracted by the mountain wind bounty, and the bounty of a thousand taels of gold is not a small amount......

Ranger is a group of special groups in the Han Empire, this group not only has the color of helping the poor and fighting bravely, but also a bit like Yan Liqiang has seen the Western bounty hunters who are crazy chasing money in film and television dramas before, and the people who become rangers will come from all walks of life, even among the young people of the wealthy families, there are also those who yearn for the life of the rangers and join this group, and the only requirement to join this group is to have a strong kung fu and cultivation。

Yan Liqiang was also the first time to see a person with the profession of ranger appear in Pingxi City, so he glanced at the two rangers, those two rangers seemed to be hard characters, Yan Liqiang just looked at them a little more, one of them immediately had a feeling, turned his head all of a sudden, and his sharp eyes suddenly looked towards Yan Liqiang's table, and after finding that there were only three curious young people sitting at this table, that person turned his gaze casually.

Within ten minutes, the two rangers' meals had only been eaten for a while, and the sound of horses' hooves outside the restaurant sounded again, and in the blink of an eye, another man dressed as a ranger walked into the store.

The three rangers glanced at each other, but no one spoke, and the later ranger found a place away from the two rangers and sat down, and then beckoned Xiao Er to come over.

When the ranger who came behind began to eat, the two rangers in front had already finished eating, threw the money on the table, and then left the restaurant with a bow and crossbow on their backs and weapons.

......

Looking at the backs of the two rangers leaving, Yan Liqiang squinted his eyes slightly, thoughtful......

From November 1st, more and more rangers and characters with red headbands on their heads began to appear in Pingxi City, making Pingxi City more lively......
