Chapter 15: Two Wolf Bandits
After leaving Chengqing City, it took three days, and without hurrying, a group of seventeen people came to the foot of a mountain called Erwolf Mountain leisurely. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Erwolf Mountain, formerly known as Erlang Mountain, was originally the birthplace of an ancient saint in the legend. Although it is located in a remote area, it is a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, and there are countless villages around, and the people live a quiet and peaceful life, which makes this place always like a paradise.
It's a pity that now that time has passed, Erlang Mountain has been occupied by a group of hundreds of rogues as early as ten years ago.
And because of the nicknames of the first two people, one is a one-eyed wolf, and the other is a spring wolf, so this place was also forcibly renamed as Erwolf Mountain.
This thief will naturally burn, kill, rob and torture, and do all kinds of evil. And in the past three years, the strength of Erwolf Mountain to the surrounding villages has long been distinguished.
If they encounter a village with strong people, they will collect a certain amount of money and food every month through extortion and threats, and it is over.
And once they meet those weak and bully villages, they not only rob money and food, but also rob women who look a little good, and children with good martial arts talents, they also rob, killing people and setting fires, and they are just waiting for leisure.
Therefore, whenever they go down the mountain, the surrounding villages, basically, will ask the women to put away the valuable things in the house, and then go and hide with the young children and the elderly.
All young and middle-aged men will pick up the tools of hunting and farming and fight fiercely.
Despite the heavy losses of human beings every time, every village knows that if they do not resist and let the greedy bandits plunder, they will only be bullied more and more.
Qingxi Village is one of the most fertile and powerful villages at the foot of Erwolf Mountain.
Village Jiang Zhi is a ten-fold powerhouse in the Refining Body Realm, although he can't compare with the two bandit leaders who are full of eight or nine levels of the Dao Seeking Realm, and the other five small bandit leaders who are also in the Dao Seeking Realm are still far behind, but by sending money and food to Erwolf Mountain on time and every month, he can also maintain the temporary peace of Qingxi Village.
It's just that in the past two years, because the harvest is not very good, the village's foundation has really been exhausted, and the villagers who can't scrape together money and food have no choice but to take up arms to fight on the day when the thieves will regularly come down the mountain to Qingxi Village every month.
The better ones in their hands are holding long knives and hunting bows, and the second ones can only use agricultural hoes.
The whole village, except for children under the age of ten, whether male or female, is the elderly, as long as they still have strength, under the leadership of the village Jiang Zhi, they firmly guard the front of the village entrance, ready to bravely face the gang of brutal villains.
"Village chief, have the children been arranged?"
"Well, let Meng Fuzi lead him to hide in the cave on the other side of the stream, and all the money left in the village will be handed over to him. If we survive this time, we will pick them up again, and if we all die, Meng Fuzi will take the children and flee overnight, and never come back, everything will be left to fate. ”
"Village Chief, why don't we just leave the Two Wolf Mountains together?"
Jiang Zhi sighed helplessly: "It's hard to leave our homeland, we go outside, what do we rely on to survive? Go and ask for food? Until the last moment, how can we easily leave home, and some bloodlines remain in the world, and it is enough." ”
"Damn, why doesn't the imperial court care about these bandits, and let them be here for ten years!"
"In our corner of the place, the court is too lazy to take care of it! Besides, I also heard from the people in the neighboring village that the one-eyed wolf, but every year he will take the money looted from us and give it to his superiors!"
"Stop talking nonsense, why do you mention all that nonsense? ”
In the early years, a lot of money was spent on mud walls, fences and thorn trees around the village, which was the most basic protection for the village.
And Hu Qiang, the leader of the hunting team in the village, was wearing a black shirt and a hunting bow on his back at this time, and was standing anxiously on a small hill in front of the village.
Suddenly, as if he had discovered something, he took off his bow and looked up with a wary look.
After seeing dozens of bandits with laughter and chatting from a distance, riding horses, and coming towards the village in a hurry, Hu Qiang immediately turned around and shouted: "Village chief, Erlang bandits are here!"
When the villagers of Qingxi heard this, they all took a step back nervously, and after reacting, they all mustered up their courage, took rudimentary weapons, and came to the outside of the village, ready to fight.
The two wolf thieves also heard the shouting, and rode across the hill to the front of the village, and the coquette could not help laughing, and they all looked at the stout man who seemed to be the leader at the front of the procession.
"Hahaha, brothers, we haven't been here for a month, and when we look at this Qingxi Village today, it seems that we want to rebel!"
"Fourth brother, it seems that my second wolf mountain didn't open the killing ring in March, but let these local melons think we are easy to bully. He squinted his eyes with a cold light, looked at the panicked villagers, and said disdainfully: "We are just raising them, and we don't want to fish all the time, and they still think that they are really capable of resisting?"
"Haha, sixth, what nonsense is telling the truth. The sturdy man smiled and said, "But if you can move your mouth, try not to do it, you go and ask the old village chief, what do you want to do?"
"Alas, why did you come to instruct me again?" The cold man drove his horse forward unhappily, not caring about the villagers with weapons in front of him, and said arrogantly: "Jiang Zhi, are you tired of being crooked?"
"Sixth Master Xiang, and Fourth Master Zhu, we can't help it! Last month, and last month, you have begged for so long, but you are not willing to forgive grace at all, this is to force us to live! Anyway, instead of starving to death in the future, it is better to fight happily and die to protect the village while we still have strength now. ”
"You can't even afford the most basic food, so are you embarrassed to quibble?" Xiang Liuye said contemptuously: "You whole village waste, it's really useless, it's better to commit suicide directly, and save us from wielding knives!"
"We'd rather fight to the death!"
"Hahaha, okay! Then I will fulfill you!" Zhu Fourth Master laughed loudly and said coldly: "Brothers, kill me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Pang Tianhe's laughter also came, and he was only heard to say triumphantly: "Brother Jackdaw, what's the matter, I didn't lie to you! Look, there are indeed bandits here! Fortunately, we arrived in time and have not caused any casualties." ”
"Brother, steady!" After Li Jackdaw stretched out his thumb and praised it, he pulled out the broken knife and laughed: "Don't do it first, let me come! After going out for so long, the bad guy I finally ran into is suitable for raising a knife." ”
