Along the way, Xu Chen saw that the reward notice, which had not been seen for many days, was posted in conspicuous places in various towns and cities, in addition to describing himself as a rebel of the Protoss who deceived his teacher and destroyed his ancestors, he also added an additional crime, that is, colluding with Jiuyao.

Fortunately, Wang Shen had foresight, and the two dressed up as a different look on the night of their trip, so no one saw the flaws. Xu Chen left Shangzhou and headed south in this anxious mood, and finally arrived at his uncle's county seat early one morning.

When he came to the house, Xu Chen hesitated, this time he went to his uncle Wang Lin was a hasty trip, and it was also a helpless move, he wanted to be high-spirited when he went to Chongwu Mountain, but now he came back secretly with multiple charges, Xu Chen felt that he was really shameless to go to see his uncle.

Wang Shen saw Xu Chen's inner struggle, so he first found a remote hotel to live in this small county town, and then enlightened him while eating, and finally let Xu Chen let go of the burden in his heart and decided to face the reality bravely.

Wang Shen is a person who has come over, he is old and capable, in order to prevent things from twists and turns, he discussed with Xu Chen in advance that the two of them would first go to see Wang Lin as Xu Chen's friend, first, to prevent someone in the village from ventilating and reporting the news, alarming the gods and demons, and in addition, they could also test Wang Lin's attitude, and the two of them could also make the next step.

After lunch, Wang Shen quietly left the room, bought clean clothes with Xu Chen in the shop, changed them on his body, and rode to the small mountain village where Wang Lin lived.

This is an ancient village with a history of hundreds of years, backed by mountains, and the mountains are covered with green bamboos, hence the name Zhuling Village. The land around here is fertile, and the villagers have been farming for generations.

Xiongzhou is the base camp of the Demon Clan, and most of the territory belongs to the sphere of influence of the Zhongrong Kingdom where the Demon Venerable Lin Fengtian is entrenched, but Zhuling Village, which is in the border area, is the territory of the Protoss.

The gods and demons have been at war for many years, and now in the Kyushu region of the Central Plains, none of the states are completely occupied by the gods, and they are all intertwined with each other, so in the short era of peace, the two sides opened the door of the border to facilitate the economic and trade exchanges and exchanges of the people in the same state.

It was a coincidence that as soon as he entered the village, he met his uncle Wang Lin, who was busy with farm work from the field, Xu Chen saw that he was much thinner than when he went up the mountain, so he quickly suppressed his excitement and got off the horse and saluted his uncle.

Seeing a stranger greeting him, Wang Lin asked in wonder, "May I ask the two honorable names, what are you doing with me?"

Wang Shen was afraid that Xu Chen's identity would be exposed in excitement, so he hurriedly rushed in front of him and whispered: "You are Wang Lin, we are Xu Chen's friends, and we were entrusted by him to come to visit you." ”

"This is not the place to talk, the two guests will talk with me first. Wang Lin's face changed slightly, he put his finger to his mouth to silence him, and hurriedly led them to the way home.

Xu Chen led the horse and his uncle forward, and along the way, he inevitably met some acquaintances and greeted Wang Lin, seeing these familiar faces, Xu Chen couldn't help but feel a little emotional, and his mood was also low.

As soon as he entered his house, Wang Lin covered the door and asked the names of the two again.

Wang Shen replied: "My name is Wang Shen, and this is my son Wang Da. ”

Xu Chen immediately cried and laughed when he heard this, thinking to himself, how could he take advantage of me like this!

"It turns out that Brother Ren and I are in our own family. Wang Linna recognized that it was his nephew standing on the side, and hurriedly beckoned the guests to sit down, while he picked up the teapot and poured tea for them.

Before Wang Lin could ask again, Wang Shen put the heavy burden in his hand on the table and said, "This is what your nephew entrusted me to bring you." ”

Wang Lin untied it and saw that there was a large pile of white flowers and silver inside, at least three or four hundred taels, he suddenly said in surprise: "Brother Wang, my Chen'er just went up the mountain to cultivate, where did I get this so much silver, could it be, could it be that he stole it?"

Xu Chen suddenly knew that these silver taels were stolen by Wang Shen, and now that his uncle had misunderstood him, his face turned red, and he was about to open his mouth to defend a few words, but Wang Shen had already preemptively said: "Brother Xian, you misunderstood, these are the hard-earned money that your nephew earns on weekdays to eliminate demons for the people around the Sacred Mountain." ”

After speaking, he opened his mouth and bragged, and made up some deeds to praise Xu Chen, which made Xu Chen embarrassed to listen to it, and at the same time felt a little moved in his heart.

Wang Lin didn't know that Wang Shen was coaxing him, and after hearing this, he couldn't help but feel relieved, and then said with a worried face: "I am very happy to hear my brother say this, but the younger brother heard that he killed the god king Garama, is this true or false?"

Xu Chen didn't expect the bad news to spread to the closed village, and he couldn't help but say, "Uncle...... Uncle Wang, Xu Chen was wronged, he was killed by a traitor!"

"Yes, yes, Chen'er is a proper person, how could he do such a rebellious thing!" Of course, Wang Lin didn't believe that his nephew was a big villain, but he immediately said vigilantly: "Why did Chen'er ask you to send money, what is your relationship with him?"

Xu Chen lied and said: "Xu Chen is my senior brother, and I have practiced with him in Chongwu Divine Mountain for three years......"

After all, he was a young man, and his words were not as thoughtful as Wang Shen, this sentence suddenly had the opposite effect, Wang Lin's face changed greatly after hearing this, and he said coldly: "It turns out that you are here to arrest Chen'er! He hasn't come back for five years, go find it somewhere else, I don't welcome you here!" After speaking, he got up and drove them away.

Wang Shen hurriedly glanced at Xu Chen, suggesting that he should not talk too much, and then said with a smiling face: "Brother Xian, don't be impatient, this is our private behavior." The dog and your nephew have a good relationship, not only him, but even I believe in the child's character, otherwise I would not accompany the child to risk death to send the silver taels. ”

Wang Lin was suspicious, Wang Shen spent a long time talking to make him believe that he had no malicious intentions, at this time it was almost dusk, Wang Lin asked his wife to put away the silver taels and then arrange dinner to entertain the guests, ready to talk to the guests at the dinner table in detail, in order to inquire about the whereabouts of the nephew.

At this time, there was a sudden commotion outside, and Xu Chen heard a male duck shouting in his throat: "Harvest the grain, collect the grain, hurry up and hand over the grain!"

Why did they come to harvest grain so early this year? You must know that it is not yet the season for the rice to spit out ears, and the villagers have extra grain in addition to the grain stored at home.

Xu Chen couldn't help but ask with a tone of surprise: "Uncle Wang, I remember that in previous years, the government did not come to collect grain until autumn, why did it come so early this year?"

"Now that the grain is handed over once a month, how can the people of the county government be so diligent!" Wang Lin sighed, turned around and went into the house to get the grain.

Xu Chen was suspicious, and in his impatience, he no longer cared about Wang Shen's hints to him, got up and walked out of the door, and as soon as he raised his eyes, he saw more than a dozen soldiers standing on the threshing floor in front of him, and the villagers were coming out of their homes one after another to hand over the grain to them.

When he got closer, Xu Chen found the clue, although these soldier-like people were draped all over their bodies, the armor on their bodies was slightly different from the costume of the official palace of the Protoss, but it was not the costume of the demon clan, and the doubts in his heart deepened, so he stepped forward and asked the person who was the leader: "This big brother, are you the official of the official government?"

The strong man just glanced at the thin Xu Chen, then lowered his head and was busy with his own affairs and said, "This little brother is very fresh, not from the village, right?"

Xu Chen didn't answer his question directly, but repeated his question again with a cold face.

"Servants, those wine bags and rice bags have already been beaten away by us, who would dare to come here. The strong man grinned, showed a mouthful of yellow teeth, and said with a smile: "Now we are here to be the protector/umbrella of the villagers." ”

"I'm sorry, it turns out that you are a group of robbers!" Xu Chen suddenly realized, and immediately pointed to the strong man's nose and scolded: "In broad daylight, you dare to rob the people's wealth, is there any royal law!"

The strong man's face changed when he saw Xu Chen scolding him, and he said angrily: "I said boy, you dare to scold Lao Tzu, you are impatient, right?"

Xu Chen saw that this guy was very arrogant, and he immediately became angry, and he had already forgotten all the words that Wang Shen had taught him not to be in the limelight along the way, and punched at the robber who scolded him, and the strong man was immediately knocked to the ground by him defenselessly.

The other accomplices saw that Xu Chen would hurt people without saying a word, and immediately drew their blades and surrounded them.

Xu Chen smiled, he didn't pay any attention to these seemingly tough fierce men, after all, he was now a warrior of the Protoss with the Refining Void Realm, and this group of robbers was not a member of the Demon Clan, at most they could do the kung fu of a three-legged cat, how could they help themselves, he had already made up his mind and was ready to beat them so that he couldn't even recognize his parents.

Just when Xu Chen was about to take action to remove these scourges for the villagers, Wang Shen had already walked over quickly, stopped in front of Xu Chen, and waved at the strong man who had just gotten up: "Good man, this is the dog of the little old man, for the sake of his youth and ignorance, you must not worry about him." After saying that, he took out a few pieces of broken silver from his bosom and stuffed them into the hands of the robber with a mouth full of yellow teeth. "Hero, you take these to drink with your brothers. ”

At this time, Wang Lin came to them with the grain on his back, and when he saw this situation, he also stepped forward to apologize to the robber who was beaten, hoping that he would not embarrass this young man who had arrived from afar.

"Okay, since Lao Wang has opened his mouth, I won't be as knowledgeable as this kid. Seeing the money, the robber stretched out his hand and snatched Wang Shen's grain bag, and then beckoned his men to go down and collect the grain from other villagers.

Xu Chen was so angry that he stomped his feet, with his fiery temper, he wanted to kill this gang of robbers on the spot, but Wang Shen grabbed him by the side, Xu Chen had no choice but to watch the thieves snatch the food of the villagers in the name of protection money and was helpless.

After the gang of robbers finished collecting the grain and stacking them on the carriage, the beaten strong man came to Xu Chen and said in a sneering voice: "Boy, you have to see clearly, we are the heroes of Zhushan, and if you dare to be in the limelight in the future, uncle, I will cut you in half with a knife!" After speaking, he rode away on horseback.

The robbers had all walked away, and Wang Shen saw that Xu Chen was still angry, so he whispered to him, "Do you feel very aggrieved?"

"Nonsense, do you still need to ask?" Xu Chen said angrily.

"Don't worry, within three days of my custody, these robbers, and their king, will come to the village and kowtow to you. ”

Xu Chen suddenly exclaimed, "What do you mean by this?"

Wang Shen replied meaningfully: "When the time comes, you just need to follow my instructions and do what I ask." After speaking, he went back to the house with Wang Lin for dinner.

Xu Chen was hesitant, the anger in his heart was difficult to eliminate for a while, and after returning to the room, he reluctantly accompanied Wang Shen and his uncle's family to eat a few bites, so he wanted to rest early under the pretext that he was not feeling well.

Wang Lin knew that he was unhappy about the robbers stealing grain, so he arranged a room for him to rest.
