For thousands of years, the rise and fall of families, the change of dynasties, on the prairie and in the Gobi Desert, there has never been a lack of rogues and horse thieves. In the prosperous era, they traveled secretly, plundering merchants; In troubled times, when they don't see merchants and travelers, they will loot villages and towns, kill people and set fires for their livelihood. Some of them are kind, they are doing righteous deeds of robbing the rich and helping the poor, helping the needy, more chivalrous than many so-called heroes, and some are full of scoundrels. And more people are actually just begging for a good stomach, and they can't really live anymore. They have no fixed place to live, they have no rules, and there are people who dismount and go on horses to be thieves. And for these people, no matter which son of heaven does the country, there is no good way to take them. This is exactly what many border people say and sing: "Ten years of purification, ten years of purity; Dead and resurrected. There are thousands of iron horses and flags, and they are exchanged for one or two coins for copper plates; Who will do it today? There is no fixed river bone to make pillow sleep. "In history, there are really Emperor Ning who have to compete with these horse thieves, and this has been screaming for twenty years, what is the result? It's not a waste of the treasury and a squander of the accumulation of the ancestors. When I am old, I have to make an edict to say that I still cherish the people very much, but my talent is not as good as my ancestors, although I do my best every day, I have not managed the country better, this is all my fault, and please God do not anger the people, and punish me alone! Therefore, with this master as an example, few of the people in the past generations are willing to compete with it, and most of them have the attitude of "as long as you don't make too much trouble, I will turn a blind eye".

"There are not many rogues with more than 100 people, and the rogues on the grassland are rarely masked, you see that they not only cover their faces with cloth but also wear straw hats, obviously to shield themselves from the wind and sand, I am afraid they are not simple grassland rogues, but real desert horse thieves." Ahsan looked at the galloping horse team, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.

"The wind and sand in the desert are ruthless, and the horse thieves are also ruthless, and the sentient horse thieves can't survive at all. We're afraid we've got a lot of ideas this time! Elder Mo of the guard said, holding the knife tightly, his expression seemed to be a little stiff. No one doubted Ahsan's judgment, he had walked this road dozens of times, and no one was more familiar with this place than he did.

"How about we divide some of their possessions?" Although Mr. Xu pretended to be calm, he had already lost his usual stability in his heart, and his eyes were set on Ah San. "Useless Mr. Xu, horse thieves are like the wind in the desert, and there won't be a single bone left where they blew through." Ahsan slowly closed his eyes as he spoke, gesturing strangely, as if he was praying something. Everyone's faces became more and more ugly, and they knew that they would probably become a pile of bones on this grassland in the next moment.

"Why are you so nervous, relax, relax." Yang Xiao's face was very casual, as if he didn't take this group of horse thieves to heart at all. Because he will always remember the teacher's parting words when he was separated from the teacher in Yunmengshan that year: When there is nothing to do, if there is something, the embankment can make up for unexpected changes; When something happens, be as calm as nothing, in order to eliminate the danger in the situation!

"Yang Gongzi ......" Lao Xu was also speechless for a while when he saw his demeanor, and said in his heart: "You, the person who has been bitten by a 'dog', don't you know that the 'dog' is fierce?" Suddenly, a terrible thought arose in his heart: "Could it be that this Yang Gongzi was sent by the horse thieves to lurk among us?" But how could a horse thief talk like that? ”

Yang Xiao didn't have the time to pay attention to Mr. Xu's thoughts, turned his head to Ah Sang and asked, "Should ordinary rogues and horse thieves have a fixed territory or a specific range of activities?" ”

"That's right, such a large number of horse thieves they all have their own territory, there are no special circumstances, generally will not do some behavior to cross the line, there are not two special circumstances, one is to grab the territory. It is also possible that this will happen when they encounter a disaster in their original territory or are expelled by a stronger force. Ahsan pursed his lips and replied in the affirmative.

Yang Xiao looked at the pergola for a while, and said, "Ah Sang, come and take a look." This group of horse thieves seems to be running in a chaotic formation."

Hearing this, he hurriedly opened his eyes and looked at Qi Dao carefully: "That's true, this, how can this be?" Strange and strange! ”

Yang Xiao only thought about it and confirmed his thoughts, and a smile appeared on his calm face just now: "I seem to understand a little!" Then he jumped out of the truck and turned around to clench his fists, and said to Mr. Xu: "Sir, I think this matter is very strange, if you hand over this matter to you, you may not be able to ask for a life, but the goods and money will inevitably be lost." ”

"With Mr. Lao, it's good that you are in charge of this matter, it's good if people can live, and it's good if people can live." Lao Xu was flustered at the moment, he had already lost his square inch, and his white face was a little whiter than usual, but at this moment, no one had the heart to pay attention to his panic.

After a while, the horse thief galloped to the front, and then looked at the person headed by the horse thief, who was eight feet tall and had a tiger's back and a bear's waist and cheeks, and a slash ~ The saber was like a half-cut black iron tower, and some of the people behind him had a hat on their heads, some covered with green gauze, some with their chests and backs, and a few women were colorful, a group of rabble!

Seeing this scene, Yang Xiao had a judgment in his heart, only to see that his eyes were solid, his expression was calm, and he stopped the horse thief in a few slow steps. Seeing that he was only at the level of the fourth or fifth level, he couldn't help but smile contemptuously in his heart, although his cultivation at the moment was only level six, this did not mean that his combat power was only level six! After all, he was once a top master, how could his vision, realm, and ability to grasp the timing be comparable to such ordinary horse thieves? I saw him clasp three fingers with one hand, and the first finger blocked the enemy's attack; the second refers to the air breaker; The third refers to countering the body. These three fingers are completed in an instant, as if they are natural, and others seem to be the work of one finger. At this moment, the big man who was beaten by his own knife against his neck was stunned; The horse thief who followed behind was stunned; Everyone in the caravan was even more shocked, and the bosses opened their mouths one by one.

Seeing this, Yang Xiao smiled and withdrew his fingers, while gently straightening the man's clothes and flicking the dust off his shoulders, he said lightly: "Several big brothers have worked the road, and I don't have any wine here to welcome the rudeness, today Yang owes you a favor, this is my reason." And you have come from afar, what is the so-called? I want to hear from you, too. His three fingers looked chic and freehand, but at the moment he knew that in order to pretend to be a master, his whole arm was numb. But now it seems that the effect is good, and everyone is really calmed by his "master style".

The horse thieves were a little stunned, and they cried out in their hearts, thinking to themselves where did this fairy-like figure come from, how could they be mixed in such an ordinary caravan? The leader of the big man came back to his senses first, looked at the young man with some horror, and tried very hard to calm down and said: "Today's robbery of the caravan is all my idea, and it has nothing to do with my brothers, as long as you can let them go, my life is to compensate you." But if the hero doesn't allow it and insists on leaving all of us behind, brothers like me are not greedy for life and afraid of death, but I don't want to treat you as if, but if you want to drag it on your back a few points, it's not very difficult! ”

Seeing Dahan's such a playful character, Yang Xiao had a little appreciation, thinking of the purpose of returning to the East and his own situation at the moment, he couldn't help but change his mind and then said: "What do I want your life to do?" I just said that I owe you a favor, and now I think about it, in this way, I give you two choices: first, I will kill all of you, and I don't care if I die a few irrelevant people; Second, I will give you a chance to make money every day, but you have to be my minions. He didn't explain much, but just looked at the horse thieves lightly.

"Don't listen to him, he'll definitely send us to death!" A woman in green said angrily.

"Yes, big boss, how can there be any benefits in the world, this surnamed Yang is obviously not well-intentioned!" A tall, thin man in the front row also said.

Listening to everyone's gossip, Fang Han frowned and shouted, "Shut up Lao Tzu, what is Yang Daxia's identity?" What kind of tricks can you use to play with a small character like us? A bunch of unseen things! The woman in green snorted disdainfully, but she didn't dare to be disobedient, and the others also quieted down when they heard the words. Although Lao Fang, the big boss, is not a master or a hero, he focuses on morality, and he has never treated his brothers badly over the years, no matter how much he has done, so his prestige among this group of horse thieves has also been well-known for many years. Seeing that everyone was quiet, Fang Han hurriedly put on a smiling face, and said with a simple smile: "Yang Daxia, we are all willing to listen to your trend, and we will never frown in the water and in the fire!" ”

"I don't like to hear water or fire! For my minions, they are their own people, and if you are my people, others will eat chaff, so you have to give me meat, and I will not be happy if I don't eat well. As long as you are sincerely obedient, I will not be willing to let you die! Tens of thousands of taels are smashed out, and some people who want to die are not your turn! You must all spare my life, if anyone dies secretly, Lao Tzu will definitely dig you out of the pit and scold your mother! As soon as he said a word, although the thieves did not believe ten percent, they also had a lot less resistance to him.

One of the golden rules of negotiation: all compromises and concessions in the negotiation process are taken for granted in the eyes of the other party, and when the negotiation is over, any little benefit is a gift!
