Chu He was just about to land at the mouth of Jiangwu Village, when he suddenly found smoke and dust in the distance, and a team of powerful cavalry roared towards Jiangwu Village.

This group of cavalry is about 1,000 people, a banner with red letters on a black background, with Chinese characters on it, and the armor is also distinct, all black leather armor, all holding wooden poles and spears, and weapons such as knives and bows around their waists.

After Chu He learned the mystery of the military situation from Gan Ning, he humbly asked for advice, how much can he judge the grade of an army, this thousand-man cavalry, if nothing else, should be a first-class army.

As the cavalry team quickly approached Jiangwu Village, even though the sound of gongs and drums in Jiangwu Village was heard, every household had young people holding knives, guns, bows and arrows and so on quickly came out, quickly formed a team, and gathered in the direction of the city wall at the entrance of the village.

Chu He's heart moved, and he let the Scorpion-tailed Winged Tiger rise slightly and look down at an altitude of fifteen or six hundred meters.

Although the Scorpion Tail Winged Tiger is three or four meters long, at an altitude of more than a thousand meters, from the ground, it is only a small black spot, unless the sight is excellent, and the cultivation has reached the realm of the Four-Rank Martial Sect, otherwise it is difficult to find that there is a person riding on this black spot.

It is estimated that the people in Jiangwu were attracted by the cavalry, and they did not notice the existence of such an empty cavalry in the sky.

With Chu He's current eyesight and ear power, although the wind is howling in the sky, he can clearly see and hear the situation and sounds below.

The people of Jiangwu Village are really as the innkeeper said, everyone is martial, the village style is strong, with the sound of gongs and drums, the young and strong gathered on the village wall in a very short time, I am afraid that there are as many as 2,000 people,

Most of the young men are wearing self-made leather armor, and most of the weapons in their hands are spears, and their momentum is quite strong, and there is a faint military momentum and blood exuding, even if they are not finished ranks, but their combat effectiveness is definitely not weak.

The gate of the fortress was closed early, and Chu He saw that there were more than a dozen small trebuchets on the city wall, which seemed to have just been manufactured, and it was estimated that they were used to deal with these cavalry.

The youth of Jiangwu Village is obviously dominated by an old man with gray hair and beard.

Although this old man looks like he is sixty miles away, his muscles and bones are strong, his face is ruddy, his eyes are bright, and the iron spear in his hand is five meters long, as thick as an egg, I am afraid that it does not weigh one hundred and fifty or sixty catties, it is no different from an iron pillar.

It is absolutely difficult for ordinary people to control such a super weapon, but in the hands of the old man, he is as light as a weight, and he is obviously a master of spearmanship.

Chu He took a look with his heavenly eyes and had already detected the situation of this old man.

Xiang Xiong, the word Guan Chu (Blood Coagulation Realm)

Constitution: 93

Strength: 92

Dexterity: 84

Spirit: 31

Talents: Gather (Attack +3 after charging), Gun Mettle (Attack +6 when using Lancer)

Luck: 130

In addition to himself, it was the first time that Chu He had seen Huang Pin's martial arts on the Blood Condensation Realm martial artist.

Seeing the name of this old man, Chu He chuckled, looking at Chu, but the words of his uncle Huaiyu were similar, and Chu He believed that this Jiangwu Village was the Xiang Yu branch that left Chu at the beginning.

Xiang Xiong's own attributes have reached the peak of the Blood Condensation Realm, and he may be promoted to the fourth-rank level at any time, especially when the two talents are to increase attack power, when using spearmen, I am afraid that he can exert ten combat power, which is completely comparable to the ordinary four-rank mid-stage martial arts.

Obviously, the cavalry who came this time was friend or foe, and the young men of Jiangwu Village all looked nervous, and with indignation, they glared fiercely at the cavalry who had arrived outside the village.

The 1,000 cavalry who came, led by the generals, had much better armor, wearing a tiger-headed iron helmet, wearing silver steel-inlaid tiger stripe iron armor, and a stainless steel spear in his hand.

Outside the gate of the village, the general of the tiger-striped battle armor looked at Xiang Xiong on the city wall with a gloomy face, and then said gloomily: "Xiang Xiong, it seems that your Jiangwu Village is determined to fight against our Yizhou army?"

Xiang Xiong's face was very solemn, and he arched his hand towards the tiger armor general: "General Chen, it's not that our Jiangwu Village intends to rebel against the Yizhou Army, it's just that our Jiangwu Village ancestors are not allowed to participate in the world's disputes." ”

"I also hope that General Chen will go back and say a few good words for our Jiangwu Village, and our Jiangwu Village will definitely have a lot of money and food for the military taxes that should be paid. ”

General Chen suddenly sneered: "Now that the war is approaching, in order to protect the peace of the people under my rule, my Yizhou army does not hesitate to raise all its troops and horses to fight against the tyrannical Shu army. ”

"Tens of millions of people in Yizhou are all powerful and have money to contribute, do you think that with an ancestral precept, you can persuade our Yizhou army to fail!"

Xiang Xiong frowned and said: "General Chen, Xiang has already said that our Jiangwu Village will not participate in the disputes in the world, and I hope General Chen will not persecute us." ”

"What's more, there are only 3,000 young people in our Jiangwu Village, and General Chen wants to remove all of them and leave, so how can the 9,000 women, children, and elderly people in our Jiangwu Village continue?"

General Chen said coldly: "As long as the young people of Jiangwu Village join our Yizhou army, they will be paid military salaries to support their families, and the tranquility of Jiangwu Village will also be protected by our Yizhou army!"

"If Xiang Xiong doesn't know how to lift, then it's not a matter of three thousand young people, once the army comes, Jiangwu Village will definitely be razed to the ground, and the chickens and dogs will not be left!"

The faces of the young men of Jiangwu Village next to him suddenly became angry, and they were just scolding, Xiang Xiong waved his hand to stop them, and then said in a deep voice: "Since this is the case, then please ask General Chen to go back first, and wait for me to discuss it, and within a month, I will definitely give General Chen an answer!"

General Chen's face changed a few times, and finally he snorted coldly: "General Ben will give you seven days at most! I, a thousand generals, will stay outside the village, if the seven days are up, and you still don't make a decision, don't blame General Ben for being polite!"

He didn't dare to force Jiang Wucun too much.

Jiangwu Village is the largest village in Gushan County, usually willing to give, more than a dozen villages nearby, all headed by Jiangwu Village, if the persecution is really too much, so that Jiangwu Village violently resists the conscription of the Yizhou Army, afraid that thousands of people can be gathered, it is absolutely difficult to cope.

You must know that in Yizhou, the hearts of the people in many places are still towards Shu, including many large scholars, especially knowing that the army of Shu is coming, they are even more ready to move, and the soldiers and horses of Yizhou have suppressed several riots.

Now most of the Yizhou army stays in the important places of military affairs, and the other troops are strictly guarding Yizhou City, and the soldiers and horses that can be used to suppress the rebellious people are only 100,000 at most.

The strength of Jiangwu Village is clear to General Chen, otherwise he would not have been here several times for the sake of the three thousand young men of Jiangwu Village, and he still needs to bring a thousand cavalry just in case.

According to General Chen's judgment, in this Jiangwu Village, there are thousands of martial artists, hundreds of strong bone realm martial artists, and even more than a dozen blood condensation realm martial artists, and the techniques they practice are all suitable for military warfare, and many of them even know the way of military warfare.

Once they join forces with other villages, without 350,000 soldiers and horses, they dare not say that they can be suppressed.

When the people of Jiangwu Village heard that General Chen's cavalry was going to be stationed outside the village, they were all angry, and many of them even cursed.

Xiang Xiong, an old and serious man, did not change his face, and finally snorted coldly and said, "Then General Chen is at his own convenience!"

Then, Xiang Xiong turned around without saying a word and took a few young men down the city wall.

Many young men from Jiangwu Village left one after another, but on the city wall, there were still five or six hundred young men left, paying close attention to the movements of the Qianyizhou cavalry.

Chu He could see it clearly in mid-air, and with a slight movement in his heart, he drove the scorpion-tailed winged tiger to fly down diagonally, but it directly entered the range of Jiangwu Village.

As the height of the scorpion-tailed winged tiger decreased, it finally attracted the attention of the villagers of Jiangwu Village.

Xiang Xiong and the others took the elite of the village and quickly rushed towards the place where the Chu River landed.

By the time the Chu River flew to a height of 100 meters, there were already two or three hundred young people gathered below, and dozens of strong bows were pointed directly at the Scorpion-tailed Winged Tiger, if it weren't for the fact that there were people above the Winged Tiger, I was afraid that they would have already launched an attack on the Scorpion-tailed Winged Tiger!

"Who's coming?"

Xiang Xiong shook the five-meter-long giant spear, and the bluestone ground was shaken, and he made a loud noise, and then looked at Chu He with a calm face and asked.

Chu He smiled slightly, and was not afraid of being pointed at by swords, guns, bows and arrows, and landed on a scorpion-tailed winged tiger, and immediately patted the winged tiger's head, flew down, and said to Xiang Xiong: "Chu He, Tianshui County, Lower Qinzhou!"

When Xiang Xiong saw Chu He, he was also in his heart, this person and beast, his breath was unfathomable, obviously the strength realm was by no means below him, and Xiang Xiong was not careful.

"The Chu River in Tianshui County, Qinzhou?"

He looked at Chu He fixedly, and asked again: "Qinzhou City is twenty or thirty thousand miles away from here, and I am afraid that it has nothing to do with our Jiangwu Village, why did the little brother Chu come to our Jiangwu Village?"

Chu He smiled slightly, did not speak, but raised his palm slightly towards Xiang Xiong.

The Xuantie seal was clasped upside down in the palm of his hand, and the seal script Chu character flashed in front of Xiang Xiong's eyes, and then he put it away.

Xiang Xiong's body shook suddenly, and his shocked face was uncontrollably revealed, his eyes stared at Chu He's withdrawn fist, and he didn't speak for a long time.

Chu He said secretly, this bear really recognized the Xuantie Seal!

The arrival of the Yizhou army is a matter of life and death in Jiangwu Village, and in Jiangwu Village, Xiang Xiong is responsible for dealing with the Yizhou army, and Chu He knows that this bear must be an important person in Jiangwu Village, and he is afraid that he will recognize the Xuantie Seal, so he deliberately reveals the Xuantie Seal.

Xiang Xiong was silent for a long time, his expression was actually struggling, and finally he exhaled deeply, waved his hand and said in a deep voice to many young people next to him: "Everyone disperse." ”

All the young men were stunned, and next to Xiang Xiong, a strong man wearing bear skin armor and holding a short gun with a chain in his hand, who looked quite strong, hesitated for a moment and said, "Third Uncle Ancestor, this person?"

Xiang Xiong waved his hand: "It's okay, you can go back." Regarding the matter of the Yizhou Army, I still have to consult with the patriarch and several clan elders. ”

Then, he turned to Chu He and said, "Little Brother Chu, please come with me!"

Chu He nodded, pulled the chain of the scorpion-tailed winged tiger and walked towards the village with Xiang Xiong, and explained: "This mount has just been subdued in Xia, and it has to be taken with you to watch, so as not to have an accident." ”

Xiang Xiong looked absent-minded, just nodded and did not speak.

This Jiangwu village is indeed big enough, Chu He walked with Xiang Xiong for more than half an hour, passed through several residential areas, and only arrived at a group of buildings built of mountain stones halfway up the mountain, which seemed quite simple and simple.

In the building complex, there is a stone building that is unusually conspicuous, up to three zhang, occupies an extremely wide area, the momentum is magnificent, the four corners are protected by watchtowers, there are strong young guards outside, a huge stone archway in front of it, it is said that the ancestral hall of the family is Xiang.

However, Xiang Xiong did not bring Chu He into the ancestral hall, let Chu He shrink the scorpion-tailed winged tiger on an iron pillar, and then led Chu He towards the edge of the mountain rock next to the ancestral hall.

A cave was dug on top of the mountain rock, and there was a thin bamboo portal outside, Xiang Xiong's face became more and more solemn, and he knocked on the bamboo door: "Xiang Xiong asks to see the patriarch!"

"Come in. ”

An old hoarse voice came from the cave.

Xiang Xiong nodded towards Chu He: "Little Brother Chu, please come with me." ”

As he spoke, he pushed open the bamboo door and walked into the cave.

Chu He also walked in, and found that the inside was spacious, about two hundred square meters, and there were candles lit inside, the light was a little dim, but it was not boring, and there should be another place to ventilate.

In the center of the cave, there is a small blue pool, and a spring water gushes out of the water, exuding a strong heaven and earth power.

At the edge of the waterhole, there sat an old man dressed in burlap, with snow-white hair that reached the ground, a thin face, deep sunken eyes, and protruding fist bones, almost like a skeleton.

Xiang Xiong, who was called the third uncle ancestor in the mouth of Qingzhuang in Jiangwu Village, put his posture very low in front of this old man, first knelt down and kowtowed to the old man: "Xiang Xiong greets the patriarch Taigong!"

Only then did the thin old man open his eyes, the eyeballs wrapped in the skin in the sockets were sunken, as if they were about to fall off at any time, and his eyes were also cloudy and dim, so he first looked at Xiang Xiong: "You get up." ”

Then, his eyes rolled with some difficulty, and he looked towards Chu He: "Who is he?"

Xiang Xiong said respectfully: "Hui patriarch Taigong, this little brother is the Chu River of Tianshui County, Qinzhou City, and he has the Chu seal in his hand!"

The thin old man's eyelids twitched, but he was not as shocked as Xiang Xiong had before, stared at Chu He for a while, and then said slowly: "Can you show Chu Yin to the old man?"

Chu He nodded, and handed over the Xuantie Seal with both hands.

The thin old man stretched out his palm, which was like a bird's claw, and even heard the sound of the grinding of the bones between the movements, and the whole person was likely to fall apart, which made Chu He sweat.

The old man took the Xuantie Seal, but the Xuantie Seal, which weighed several catties, did not crush his palm.

His cloudy gaze suddenly became clear, he took a closer look at the Xuantie Seal, and actually took out an identical iron seal from under the futon, and after comparing the two, he finally nodded: "Yes! It is Chu Yin!"

Chu He was suddenly a little stunned, and couldn't help but ask, "This ...... Old man, where did the dark iron seal in your hand come from?"

The old man suddenly showed a trace of melancholy, as if he was recalling something, and on his skeleton-like cheeks, he looked a little infiltrating: "Fifty years ago, there was a seriously injured person who arrived in Jiangwu Village, but it didn't take long for him to die because of his injuries. ”

He paused, looked at Chu He again, returned Chu Yin to Chu He, and asked lightly: "You brought Chu Yin here, you must know what this means?"

Chu He nodded: "Chu He knows." ”

The old man sighed: "Actually, you shouldn't have come. Say, what do you want to do?"

"Nine Absolute Overlord Guns!"
