"Take me there."

"This way." Anjia said, and turned her head to the side.

A group of centaurs followed behind the two and came to the west side of the cottage.

At this time, there were already several soldiers standing here, guarding them.

"Open." Anja said.

The soldier bent down and flipped open the planks that covered the ground, revealing a dark tunnel.

Anja didn't stop and walked straight down.

Fang Hao followed behind him and went down together.

As soon as I stepped into it, a cold, damp smell filled the air, along with the smell of rot and foul stench.

You can even hear the squeaks of rodents.

Only there is no human voice in Anjia's mouth.

The stairs down the stairs are not long, and after five or six steps, you have reached the point.

Just as a moment, Fang Hao's brows furrowed again.

The sunlight coming in from the entrance of the cave makes it a little brighter.

Underneath, there are cages separated by wooden fences.

In the cage, there are women in tattered clothes and covered in mud.

Like frightened animals, they huddled in the corner, their backs to the outside, shivering uncontrollably.

At the edge of the cage, a wooden trough resembling a manger can be seen.

It contained some blackened, strange-smelling food.

Fang Hao's face was instantly difficult to look at.

But he didn't speak, and continued to follow Anjia inside.

In addition to the women, he also saw the children, young and young, all hiding together, their little faces covered with mud full of fear.

When Fang Hao came to this world, he had already seen the cruelty of this world.

Seeing the scene here, it still made him feel as if he had a breath in his heart, a breath that he couldn't exhale.

Suddenly, Fang Hao's gaze found several women gathered together.

His eyes glanced at his side from time to time, a little frightened, and a little erratic.

It was as if several of them were surrounding there, blocking the sight of Fang Hao and the others.

"Spread out." Fang Hao spoke softly.

Several women around looked the same, and the fear in their eyes was even greater, but they only subconsciously took two steps back, and immediately moved their steps back.

This made Fang Hao even more sure that they were covering something.

"Pull them away."

Several heavy sword infantry pulled the women gathered around to the side.

Those who obstruct the view disperse.

Fang Hao saw a woman lying on the ground, with hair as rough as thatch and a gray face.

Traverser .......

Her clothes were open, revealing her somewhat shriveled breasts, feeding the baby in her arms.

Obviously, her situation was not optimistic, one hand subconsciously patted the child in her arms, and her eyes did not have much brilliance.

If it goes on like this, I'm afraid I won't live long.

"Please let her go, she just gave birth."

"Leave her alone."

For a moment, there was a cry of begging for mercy from the cellar.

Along with the cage in which the child was held, there was also a cry.

Fang Hao exhaled slowly, raised his feet and walked towards the woman on the ground.

The begging for mercy on the side turned into scolding, all kinds of vicious words, cursing them for the uninvited guests who suddenly appeared.

Fang Hao squatted down and let the woman lean on his body.

Open a bottle of healing potion and pour it into the woman's mouth.

Ahem!!

The violent cough made the woman's eyes regain some brightness.

looked at Fang Hao, but did not speak.

"I'm Fang Hao, it's okay, Li Zhenhu and they were defeated by me, you and the child are safe."

Fang Hao said softly.

The woman did not speak, but her hands were still slapping the child in her arms.

I don't know if I heard Fang Hao's words.

At this time, the dungeon had fallen silent, and everyone realized that it seemed that this guy was not in the same group as the mountain bandits.

They all looked at Fang Hao, and their originally numb eyes suddenly appeared with a look.

A look that seems to have seen light.

"Go, you bring someone to register everyone, ask for the name of the village, and after registration, take everyone out and prepare for dinner." Fang Hao commanded softly.

"Good!" Anja replied.

There are not a few big characters in Anjia, but the recruited troops have a certain foundation.

In racial identity, there is learning.

It is completely possible to do some registration work.

After Fang Hao finished speaking, he hugged the black-haired woman out with the child.

Let people be placed in a room.

……

Fang Hao built a hidden soldier cave outside the cottage.

Let Spencer place all the undead soldiers in the cave.

And Spencer himself, put on a piece of armor that wrapped his whole body.

Unless there are people from the Church of Light, the image of the dead cannot be seen at all from the outside.

After all, he still has flesh all over his body, not as obvious as a skeleton.

Stomp Tread!!

At this time, a personal guard arrived on horseback.

He said loudly, "Lord of the City, Madame asks you about your next plans. ”

The guards of Lisis City all called Fang Hao the city lord and Rebecca his wife.

Fang Hao said: "Rest in place for one night, and continue to rush tomorrow." ”

"Yes, Lord of the Castle." The guard replied and turned to leave.

……

Soon.

Inside the cottage, there was a burst of tempting aroma.

This is the taste of porridge, and many ingredients are added to make the aroma much stronger.

Scattered inside the cottage.

Not far away, Anjia's registration work has also been completed.

With a group of women and children, he walked out of the dungeon.

But when the glare of the sun appeared overhead, everyone looked a little lost.

It's even a little uncomfortable.

They cautiously followed Anja.

When I saw a mountain bandit kneeling not far away.

His face changed instantly, and he was about to flee back to the dungeon with a panicked expression.

Obviously, the brutality of the mountain bandits has left a psychological shadow on them.

Anjia and the soldiers explained again and again.

The women and children calmed down and lined up to receive porridge and eat.

After receiving the food, these people squatted down in a random place, ignoring the mud on their hands, and stuffed the porridge into their mouths.

Looks like I'm starving.

Anjia walked over, "There are 242 women, all of whom are young, and 75 children from 3 to 10 years old, all of whom were caught by mountain bandits from all over the world, and they didn't have time to sell them." ”

In this world, at the age of twelve or thirteen, you will reach the age of starting a family.

Therefore, it matures relatively early.

"Why are they all women and children, and men?" Fang Hao asked curiously.

"The man who said he didn't want to enter the mountain bandits was either killed, or he was sold to work as a coolie, and he didn't stay." Anja explained.

It is also true that compared to women and children.

There are also certain dangers associated with the long periods of detention for men.

These mountain bandits are probably afraid of accidents, and the men are sold as soon as possible.

"Yes." Fang Hao nodded in understanding.

"These people, what are you going to do with them?" Anja continued to ask.

In fact, these are also things that Fang Hao is worried about.

These people are women and children, and there is no way to follow the group.

"No, let Ma Hong take people and take these people to his territory, in short, there are more ways than difficulties." Fang Hao said.

"It's okay, it's okay to bring it back to us, it's more lively when there are more people." Anja glanced at the gobbling crowd.

"Over there, ordinary people can't accept it." Fang Hao directly denied this statement.

The undead all over the mountains are not acceptable to ordinary people.

When Anja first arrived in the city, it was all blown up.

The rabbit maid was stunned by several people, not to mention these people.

……

Look, the people who were released had almost eaten enough.

Fang Hao also knew that it was time for him to appear.

I hope that these people, after stabilization, can improve some of their faith strength.

Fang Hao walked in front of the people and stood on a chair.

Seeing that there was still a commotion underground, he gave Anjia a look on the side.

The latter, looking back, blinked, his face full of question marks.

Fang Hao was helpless, and whispered to Spencer on the side, "Let them be quiet." ”

Spencer nodded and shouted loudly: "All quiet, the great lord below, who defeated the Killer Mountain Bandits, Lord Fang Hao, who rescued you, has something to say, give me silence." ”

His voice was so loud that it covered all the sounds in an instant.

The audience fell silent in an instant, and they all looked up at the young man standing in the chair.

"Ahem! Let me introduce myself, my name is Fang Hao, I am from the north of Lisis City, I heard that there is a group of mountain bandits here, plundering villages and towns, killing many innocent people, and ......selling simple villagers as goods. ”

At this point, there was a sudden sobbing sound below.

This kind of voice, like contagion, one after another, is bowing their heads and wiping their tears.

These women can be kept until now, and they are not too old.

At the mention of what the bandits had done, they began to sob.

Seeing that everyone's mood was a little low, Fang Hao continued: "Now that you are safe and free, I can give you a choice, if there are relatives or the village is still there, I will give you some food to go home, if you really don't have any relatives, you can go to my territory, there are no mountain bandits over there, you can live normally." ”

Everyone looked at Fang Hao, and no one spoke.

After being silent for a long time, a girl stepped forward and said softly, "Are you the city lord?" We went, what needs to be done, will you make us do coolies and beat us every day? ”

This girl Fang Hao still has some impressions.

When she was in the dungeon, she scolded herself the loudest and dirtiest.

"I'm not a lord, I'm a lord, and I have many cities in my territory, such as Lisis, Purul, and many more, and you will have your own job, but not coolies, just like you are in your own village, you also need to do something to support yourself." Fang Hao replied seriously.

"Are you going to hit us, then?"

"Why hit you, you will make mistakes?" Fang Hao asked rhetorically.

The girl immediately shook her head, "I can't make a mistake. ”

"Haha, you can choose the person you like to marry, or you can choose the job you like, and no one will go back and force you to do something." Fang Hao continued.

Speaking of this, the girl took the initiative to stretch out her hand and said loudly: "I will go to your territory, I hope you will be the talker." ”

Fang Hao nodded.

"I'm going to ...... too."

"Me too."

One by one, they all raised their little hands, and they all expressed their willingness to follow Fang Hao to his territory.

Those children who are not very old, although they also listen to this side of the words.

But the attention is still on the food in the hand.

While eating, listening to Fang Hao's words was like listening to stand-up comedy while eating.

Fang Hao stood on the chair and looked down.

All the women raised their hands, but none of them wanted to leave.

To put it bluntly, both women and children.

The village was gone, and only they were left.

On your own, you simply don't have the ability to survive this winter.

Either freeze to death and starve to death, or sell yourself to the noble lords in the city.

It's better to follow Fang Hao, no matter how bad it is, it won't be worse than now.

"Okay, let's rest here tonight, everyone can move freely, but don't go out of the city, lest there be any danger of escaping mountain bandits." Fang Hao said loudly and stepped out of his chair.

Hearing the word mountain bandit, everyone's faces changed instantly.

They each found a shady place to chat, but no one was willing to walk out of the door.

……

Although the people were appeased.

But how to settle down has become something that Fang Hao needs to consider.

According to his and Rebecca's plan, they will leave immediately tomorrow.

At that time, a group of people will need to be separated to escort these women back, or let Ma Hong pick them up.

Which method is better, he still needs to think about it for himself.

Just when Fang Hao was weighing which one was more secure.

The bronze bell on the wall of the cottage suddenly rang loudly.

At the same time, it was the shouts of the guards, "A large number of wild beasts are approaching, ready to fight." ”

Whoa!!

Inside the city, all the soldiers went into action.

Climb the city walls.

At the gates, a horse-resisting stake was pulled in front of the broken gate.

Fang Hao took Anjia and Spencer to the city wall.

When he looked into the distance, he saw a wild beast in the distance.

At the head was a large, hairy golden lion.

Behind the lions, you can see wild bears, wolves, deer and even tusked boars.

There were nearly a hundred, like a herd of beasts, rushing towards this side quickly.

Further back from the herd, there were dozens of people dressed as militiamen.

Hurriedly following behind the beasts, they were also approaching this side.

"These people are driving away the herds?" Fang Hao frowned and said.

At the same time, Anjia suddenly exclaimed, "Look, there's a person on that golden lion." ”

If you look closely, you will find that on the back of the golden lion, you can vaguely see a figure.

At this moment, this person poked his head out of the lion's thick golden hair.

Revealing a small face, and a twisted braid floating in the air at the back of his head, he kept swinging.

She can control herds.

This was Fang Hao's second thought.

As the herd drew closer, the crowd on the walls could hear the roar of the beast, and the heavy wheezing of the beast.

"Force the herd to stop, and attack directly without stopping." Fang Hao said.

As soon as the words fell.

The soldier on the side raised his hand to shoot a shot.

A gunshot rang out, and the bullet landed in front of the golden retriever lion.

The woman on the lion's back was visibly stunned when she heard the gunshot.

Looking up at the top of the city wall, I saw the muzzles of black holes.

Her face was instantly filled with fear.

Immediately tugged at the lion's hind hair, "Stop, stop, they have guns." ”

The golden lion was very obedient and immediately stopped and stopped.

But the beasts behind were still running with all their might.

In an instant, the fierce herd of beasts, the people who were hit turned on their backs, and rolled in a mess.

was originally like a rainbow, but at this time there is more joy.

The petite woman also got up from the ground in embarrassment.

Re-mounted on the lion's back, he glanced at the muzzle of the gun above, turned his head and said, "Withdraw, withdraw!" ”

The militiamen who followed the herd arrived here.

Before he could see the situation clearly, he heard his lord and ordered him to retreat.

All the beasts also turned around and began to run back.

And at this moment, the dense sound of horses' hooves came from one side.

A gold-armored general, with a heavily armed gold-armored cavalry, ran over quickly.

Directly blocked the way back for the beasts.

"Damn, my mother is going to capsize in the gutter today."
