"My lord, I don't think that Shangguan Xiu is simple! Since the imperial court can send him over, he must have some ability!"
"Hmph!" Wang Wei laughed out loud and said, "What can you do if you send it from the imperial court?" Huya Guan Tiangao Emperor is far away, no one is afraid of coming to the official, find an opportunity, the official will kill him together!"
After a pause, he said again: "In the evening, this official will hold a banquet in the mansion, invite Shangguan Xiu to dinner, take this opportunity, you find someone to kill Luo Fu, he is a bane, he must be eradicated as soon as possible!"
"The villain got it. ”
Wang Dao arranged the residence for Shangguanxiu in the west of the city, close to the west city gate, a small courtyard with a single family, as for the conditions, the buildings of the entire Huyaguan are almost the same, up to the city lord's mansion, the city captain's mansion, down to the ordinary houses, all are earthen buildings, made of loess and mud.
This kind of earthen house can only be said to be barely inhabitable.
The first thing that catches your eye when you enter the house is a long earthen kang with a dilapidated wooden table and a few tattered chairs, and a wardrobe in the corner.
Shangguan Xiu's residence is still like this, and the residence of Luo Ren and the others can be imagined, they were assigned to the thatched huts around the small courtyard, and the interior was even more simple, except for the earthen kang and kang mats, there was nothing else. Shangguanxiu's small courtyard has a main room, and there are two wings on the left and right. He arranged Jia Caixuan and Sui Tangjing in the right wing, Qian Jin, Luo Ren, and Zhan Xiong in the left wing, and the others temporarily lived in the thatched huts around them.
After arranging their accommodation, the soldier did not stay long, but bowed to Shangguan Xiu and left quickly.
After the soldier left, Shangguan Xiu asked Luo Ren to help Luo Fu into his house, and then he took the straw off the carriage, and then looked down, and there was a layer of weapons of different lengths underneath.
These weapons are all spiritual weapons that Shangguan Xiu and others picked up from Phoenix Mountain, and each one is worth a lot of money, at least more than a hundred taels of silver. Everyone bundled these weapons into several bundles, and then carried them all into Shangguan Xiu's room.
After Shangguan Xiu entered the house, he floated down and sat on the kang, and it was only then that he asked: "Luo Fu, why did Wang Dao kill you? You have to tell the truth, otherwise, I won't be able to save you!"
Luo Fu lay on the kang, cautiously looked at Shangguan Xiu, and saw that he was staring straight at him, he immediately lowered his head and whispered: "Recently, there have always been incidents of caravans being robbed near Huya Pass, I ...... My brothers and I are also alive and want to make a big deal. Yesterday, I took two brothers to ambush near the official road, I wanted to wait for a small caravan to come, grab some silver and run, as a result, the result came a large caravan, I saw a lot of people in the caravan, I and the two brothers did not dare to move, but who knew that at this time suddenly appeared a large number of robbers, there are dozens of people, all covered their faces, kill people when they see them, and when they kill all the people in the caravan, one of them untied his face towel and drank water, I ...... I saw that the person was Wang Wei's henchman, named Wang Chong, I was startled, and looked carefully at the robbers, who were not wearing military uniforms, but they were wearing military boots under their feet. I knew I had seen something I shouldn't have seen, I didn't dare to squeak at the time, and when they were gone, I took my two brothers back to the city, and I told my brothers not to make a noise about it, but who knew that Wang Dao still heard the news, and both of my brothers were killed by them, if it wasn't for the adults, I would ...... I'm long dead, too. ”
Shangguan Xiu blinked his eyes and asked, "You mean, the city captain sent his henchmen to disguise themselves as robbers and rob the caravans that passed by?"
"Yes...... Yes!" Luo Fu swallowed and nodded in response.
"How can this be reasonable!" Luo Ren slapped the table and said angrily: "The dog official is hateful, and the sin is unforgivable!"
Zhan Xiong and the others are also angry, Wang Dao's courage is too great, robbing caravans, killing people and destroying mouths, as a city captain, but doing the work of bandits, it is strange that Huya Pass can be peaceful!
Sui Tangjing asked, "Doesn't the city lord know about this?"
"City Lord?" Luo Fu smiled bitterly, shook his head and said: "The city lord spends his days soaking in the pile of women, spending all day drinking, and doesn't care about anything.
As he spoke, he looked at Shangguan Xiu worriedly and said, "The adult came to the rescue, Luo Fu is unforgettable, but this time the adult offended Wang Dao, I am afraid it will be ...... in the future."
"I'm afraid of what?"
"I'm afraid that Wang Dao will retaliate against the adult!" Luo Fu said: "Wang Dao is the soil emperor in the Huya Pass, no one has ever dared to oppose him, this time the adult let Wang Dao not come to the stage in public, Wang Dao will not give up, adults should be more careful!"
Shangguan Xiu smiled nonchalantly and asked, "Do you know how many defenders there are at Huya Pass now?"
"There were about 12,300 people. ”
"What?" Zhan Xiong raised his eyebrows and said, "The establishment of Huya Pass is only five battalions, at least five thousand sergeants or more, how can there be only one thousand, two or three hundred?"
Luo Fu shook his head and said: "The dead people in Huya Pass are like dead ants, no one wants to come here to be a soldier, and now many of the thousands of people are still felons, and they came here because the government promised them to be exempted from punishment if they became soldiers in Huya Pass." ”
"It's really a ghost place!" Cao Lei said, shaking his head.
Shangguan Xiu asked, "How many battalion captains are there in the city now?"
Luo Fu pondered for a moment and said, "There are already nine battalion captains, counting the adults, there are ten battalion captains in total!"
"There are only about a thousand people, how can there be nine battalion captains?" Zhan Xiong frowned.
"There are nine battalion lieutenants, which means that Huya Pass has the establishment of nine battalion lieutenants, and they can ask the imperial court for a lot of military funds and food every year. ”
In this way, Huya Pass has blown more than 1,000 people into more than 10,000 people, and Wang Dao is sitting and leading more than 9,000 people! Zhan Xiong shook his head again and again, Huya Pass is really a place where the emperor is far away and no one wants to take care of it.
"Huh...... Haha......" Shangguan Xiu chuckled at first, and after laughing for a while, he turned into a back-to-back laugh, and the laughter couldn't stop for a long time.
Everyone was a little dumbfounded when they saw this, Brother Xiu shouldn't be overstimulated, right?
Qian Jin cleared his throat and asked in a low voice, "Brother Xiu, do you think it's too ridiculous here?"
"No, it's good here!" Shangguan Xiu laughed for a while before recalling his laughter and said slowly: "In the entire Wind Country, there is no better place than here in Huya Pass. ”
"Huh?" everyone's eyes widened, including Luo Fu, all looked at Shangguan Xiu with incredible eyes.
"The mountain is high and the emperor is far away! The imperial court, the county government, and no one cares about this place, isn't this just a good opportunity for us to show our strength? In the entire Fengguo, where else can we do whatever we want, do whatever we want, and do whatever we want?" Speaking of this, Shangguan Xiu's eyes lit up and he said with a radiant spirit: "Huya Pass is not only a good place, but also a coveted place! We just want to take root, sprout, grow, and grow here, and get back everything we have lost before!"
At this time, Shangguan Xiu was not talking empty words, cheering everyone up, he was speaking from the bottom of his heart.
"In such a place where the weak come here, it is equivalent to stepping into hell, but if the strong are here, this is their paradise! Are we weak? Haha! Don't you think this place is made for us?"
A word wakes up the dreamer.
Hearing Shangguan Xiu's words, Luo Ren, Zhan Xiong and the others all had smiles on their faces, and their gray faces that had been running around for days also glowed with a layer of glory. Everyone looked at each other, and Luo Ren said excitedly: "Brother Xiu is right, Huya Pass is a good place for us to show our strength!"
Cao Lei answered: "Since Wang Dao's turtle son can become the soil emperor of Huya Pass, why can't we? If he dares to get in the way, we will chop him with a knife!"
Looking at Shangguan Xiu, and then looking at the other people with excited faces, Luo Fu grinned secretly, sure enough, no one who can come to a place like Huyaguan is a normal person, they are all a group of crazy people!
While they were talking, a wind soldier walked in from outside, he stood in the courtyard, looked over at the main room, and asked loudly, "Is Lord Shangguan here?"
Shangguan Xiu pushed open the window and looked outside, and said, "I'm Shangguan Xiu, what's the matter with you?"
"Lord Shangguan!" The wind soldier immediately stepped forward, bowed his hand, and said with a smile: "Lord Chengwei will hold a banquet at the time of unitary, and invite Lord Shangguan to the City Captain's Mansion for dinner!"
"Okay, I see, you can go back!"
"Lord Shangguan, the villain farewell!" the wind soldier intervened again and turned to leave.
Luo Fu's eyes rolled and he pondered for a while, then he said to Shangguan Xiu: "My lord, can you let me leave first before you go to the banquet in the evening?"
Shangguan Xiu looked at him puzzled.
Luo Fu said: "I have witnessed what Wang Dao is doing in secret, Wang Dao will definitely not let me go, when the adults go to eat, Wang Dao will definitely send someone to kill me, I ...... I'm going to die here if I stay here!"
"It's only going to be more dangerous if you get out of here. Shangguan Xiu pointed to the people around him with a smile and said, "None of my brothers are given for free, with them, no one can hurt you." ”
"However, Wang Dao's subordinates are also very powerful. ”
"More than 1,000 officers and soldiers in the city, all of them are desperate to listen to his orders?"
"That'...... That's not true, there are more than 100 people under Wang Wei's henchmen, but many of them are spiritual cultivators he hired with a lot of money, and the spirit martial arts are very strong. ”
"Who's the strongest?"
"It should be nine battalion lieutenants. ”
Shangguan Xiu nodded and said with a smile: "You can recuperate here with peace of mind, since I dare to say that I can protect you, I naturally have the ability to do it." ”
"Thank you, sir!" Luo Fu, who was lying on the kang, straightened up and made a gesture to kneel down to thank him, but Shangguan Xiu stopped him and said with a smile: "My brothers and I have just arrived, and we are still very unfamiliar with everything in Huya Pass, and we need a local to be a guide, so you can stay with me for the time being and be a guide for us." ”
"Yes, yes, as long as the villain knows, he must know everything, and he must say everything!"
