Chapter Thirty-Four: The Wind Kiata Mountain!
Mount Yata, Mount Matan, and Mount Erpa, these are the strongholds of the three bandit groups entrenched in the path of the Wolf Warrior Mercenary Regiment. These three small mountains www.biquge.info located on the road to the east of Moorle, and are all near uninhabited and desolate places, except for flowers and trees, and birds and beasts.
The main business and life of the three bandit groups is to rob caravans and passing travelers, and other than that, they can only chat with their friends in the stronghold and enhance their relationship. After all, you can't expect how many women will be in a bandit den, and even if there are, it's for the big guys.
Although the birth of the mercenary group made the cause of robbery a little lonely, it did not disappear. At the very least, the lives of these bandit groups are quite good. Because robbery is only part of their source of income, more income comes from the shadows. There are many things that cannot be done in the city of Moorle, but there are no restrictions in the wilderness, and it is the responsibility of the robbers if something happens.
The bandit gang that occupied Mount Yata called itself the Wind Bandits, numbering about three hundred. The terrain of Yata Mountain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the location of this place is remote, so the Wind Bandits have never been surrounded and suppressed by noble armies. Even so, in order to be safe, the Storm Bandit built three layers of wooden walls in a row at the pass, and built some arrow towers on the top to defend it.
Xiulin was originally a child of a poor family, and the children of the poor were in charge of the family early, and when Xiulin was thirteen years old, he was sent by his father to a shop as an apprentice. In fact, the so-called apprentice is another name for coolies, and the status is lower than that of the clerks employed in the shops, and they have to do all the dirty work and learn nothing.
Even so, Xiulin is also grateful to the owner of the shop for being able to take him in. Xiulin's family had no land, they cultivated the lord's land, and most of the crops they harvested had to be handed over, and what their family left was only a part of their subsistence efforts. Although Xiulin is very hard in the shop, at least he can eat enough, dress warmly, and sometimes help his family.
It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and the owner of the shop wanted to skip the middleman and go directly to the source to get the goods in order to increase profits, but he didn't expect to be unprepared and was looted by the wind thieves on the way back. The shopkeeper was killed by the robbers next to the carriage carrying the goods because he was holding on to the goods, and another fellow who came with him was hacked to death in a panic. Only Xiu Lin was brought back to his den by the Wind Thieves because of his relatively young age and the fact that he didn't resist at the beginning.
Not only did Shulin not avenge the shopkeeper's name, but he soon joined the Wind Bandit and became a bandit. No one thinks that Xiulin shouldn't do this, and no one looks down on Xiulin because of this, in fact, how many of these robbers really want to be robbers? But it's just to live, it's easy to die, but it's very difficult to live!
Xiulin, who is still underage, is very thin because his nutrition can't keep up, and he doesn't have any special skills, so he can only do simple things. Xiulin, who has become a patrol soldier, is very satisfied with this arrangement, and he doesn't have to go into battle himself, so he doesn't have to worry about letting himself kill people, and he doesn't have to worry about being killed by others. In addition to walking around the wooden walls every day, it is nice to have a few days off once in a while.
Although the treatment of the patrol soldiers is very poor, and the treatment is even worse than that of those members who organize groups to go out to rob, Xiu Lin has no complaints. After each successful robbery, the boss divides the spoils, and Xiulin will be very careful to keep his share. In Xiulin's vision, he will not continue to do it, as long as he finds an opportunity, he will go home with the money he has saved, and his parents will be very happy to see him at that time.
On this day, it was the turn of Xiulin to carry out patrol tasks, and the large army had not taken any action in the past few days, and they were all resting in the old nest, and the mountain seemed a little quiet. After a few glances within his line of sight, he didn't find anything abnormal, and Xiu Lin stopped paying attention to the outside and sat down. At the beginning, Xiulin would still stare carefully, but for a day, two days, or more days, I didn't find any wind and grass, and slowly, Xiulin was no longer so cautious.
"Hey, Duff, I'm here!" In the distance, Xiu Lin saw a familiar figure and hurriedly said hello in a loud voice.
This boy named Duff is Xiulin's only friend in the mountains, and the two are about the same grade, and they both do patrol work, so they are naturally familiar with the more they come and go every day. In fact, except for knowing Duff's name, Xiu Lin knew almost nothing about him, and Xiu Lin didn't ask very interestingly. Of course, Duff didn't ask anything about Shulin before he went up the mountain. It seems like a default rule, and everyone follows it tacitly.
"Hey, Xiulin!" Duff greeted Xiulin but didn't sit down immediately, but stood on the wall and looked out.
Xiu Lin pulled Duff, "Don't look at it, I've already observed it just now, and there's nothing abnormal." Besides, how can anyone come to this hellish place!"
Duff no longer insisted, and sat next to Xiulin.
Looking at the people around him, they were all sitting there chatting with acquaintances, and Duff secretly lowered his voice and said to Xiulin, "Do you know, I have a big business to do recently." ”
The business that Duff is talking about is actually to rob, perhaps for the sake of good fortune, and the people on the mountain never say to rob, but have gone to do business instead. Xiu Lin knew that Duff was relatively well-informed, and he had a good relationship with a small boss, so Duff would soon know what was going on in the stronghold.
"Who is it this time?" Xiu Lin asked casually, in fact, Xiu Lin didn't care about this, but Duff had always been interested in these, and Xiu Lin didn't want to ruin his interest.
"Wolf Warrior. ”
"Wolf warrior! is that the wolf warrior last time?" Xiu Lin's expression was very surprised, but it was no wonder that it was the word wolf warrior that left a deep impact on Xiu Lin. Once, when a large army went out to do business, when they came back, they lost their troops and lost their generals, and almost everyone was wounded. The target of that robbery was the caravan escorted by the Wolf Warrior Mercenary Regiment, and as a result, the losses were heavy, and the large army recuperated for a long time before recovering a little.
"Them?"
"Why don't you dare?" Although Xiu Lin's words were not finished, Duff knew what Xiu Lin wanted to say, "What's more, this time it's not just us, the three of them are together, it's enough for the wolf warrior!"
"I see. "Xiu Lin finally understood why the big army dared to start, it turned out that he had invited foreign aid.
Duff patted Shulin on the shoulder, "Don't tell anyone else about this beforehand, do you know?"
With that, Duff stood up and prepared to leave. Just then, an arrow burst through the air and pierced Duff's neck. Duff fell, Xiu Lin looked at the white arrow feather that was still trembling slightly, and there were only two words in his head, "Enemy attack!"
