Chapter 63: The Yaoshan Gang
Chen Ran caught up with a few mountain bandits, and when the mountain bandits saw that someone was blocking them, they came up with knives and guns to threaten.
The black gas wafted by, and all the knives and guns in their hands disappeared, frightening these people to look around, thinking that there was some kind of ghost.
"Hey. Chen Ran shouted, "What are you looking around, I'll ask you a few questions!"
Only then did the mountain bandits pay attention to Chen Ran: "You turned our weapons away?"
Chen Ran smiled slightly: "That's right, it's just that the weapon is gone, if you don't answer my question, then your people will disappear soon!"
The mountain bandits looked at each other, but they were indeed stunned, and they were inevitably a little afraid in their hearts.
"What's wrong with you?"
Chen Ran asked, "How many of you are in total?"
"We are from the Yaoshan Gang, we have nearly two hundred brothers, and even the City Lord's Mansion can't resist us, I advise you not to go against us! I see that you have some skills, it is better to join my Yaoshan Gang, and in the future, you will not worry about eating or drinking, and be a free mountain bandit!"
Chen Ran didn't refuse immediately, but said, "Take me to meet your helper." ”
"Okay, our gang leader likes strong people the most. If you show your hand in front of him, he will be happy, and maybe he will directly make you a captain or something. ”
The mountain bandits enthusiastically led Chen Ran forward, and Chen Ran asked about Jinzhuang by the way.
"The west is poor, and the things you can grab from those city residents are limited, why don't you just grab the gold village?"
The mountain bandits looked at Chen Ran like monsters: "Don't you know that Jinzhuang was built by the Xia Empire." ”
"I know, but so what? Anyway, the Xia Empire can't catch us, so what can we do if we rob Jinzhuang?"
The mountain bandit explained: "The Xia Empire naturally can't catch us, but if we go to Jinzhuang, if the underground treasure house self-destroys, we will die......"
It turns out that the underground treasure house of each gold village has a self-destruct device. Once activated, the explosion is so powerful that it can blow up half of the city-state.
And Jinzhuang is generally built close to the City Lord's Mansion, so the City Lord's Mansion will also be very strict with the guards of Jinzhuang, not to mention that each Jinzhuang also has a full-time guard set up by the empire. If you go to rob the gold village, even if you defeat the guards, the treasure house will self-destruct, and if you don't get the money, you will be blown to pieces.
Jinzhuang's self-destruct device was also a means for the Xia Empire to consolidate its rule. It not only deterred those who wanted to rob, but also shocked the city-states, so that the city-states under the Xia Empire did not dare to rebel. Just imagine, if the self-destruct device is activated, and even the city lord's mansion and half of the city-state will be blown up, who else will think of rebellion?
Understanding the reason, Chen Ran couldn't help but sigh: "The Xia Empire is really ruthless. ”
After a while, the mountain bandits took Chen Ran to the gate of the city, where many people gathered, and the looted goods of everyone would be sent here.
The leader of the Yaoshan Gang, who was riding on a horse, watching his subordinates count their belongings, he saw a stranger coming, and immediately patted his horse forward: "Who is he?"
Several mountain bandits introduced: "I just met him on the road, this person is very powerful. ”
"What's his name?"
"No...... I don't know. ”
The helper was furious: "You don't even ask the details of the people, why did you just bring people here!"
"My name is Chenran. Chen Ran introduced himself.
"Chen Ran...... "The leader of the Yaoshan Gang thought for a moment, and then patted his head again, "You won't be Chen Ran on the wanted warrant, right?"
Chen Ran's wanted warrant was issued together with Hercules Sect and others, the most famous is naturally the Hercules Sect that destroyed Dark Cloud City, but Chen Ran also made him famous because of the same wanted warrant.
"I'm the assassin on the wanted notice, you hurry up and return your belongings to the people of Qianyun City, and I'll let you go!" Chen Ran said.
"I am Ma Lin, the leader of the Yaoshan Gang, and I have two hundred brothers under my command, even if you have a bounty of 20 million dragon coins, Lao Tzu is not afraid! I don't want to turn my face with you assassins, so I don't want to be nosy, otherwise I will let you see how powerful my two hundred brothers are!" Ma Lin, the gang leader, threatened.
Chen Ran looked curious: "Do you know my strength?" He thought that the other party was illiterate.
Unexpectedly, Ma Lin said disapprerovitically: "Isn't it just a Night Moon assassin? With a little strength, you dare to get an axe in front of me, if you weren't an assassin, I would have taken you down a long time ago!"
"Hmph, you can try it!" Chen Ran moved his fingers, since the other party said so much, he must have some strength.
"Try it, try it!" Ma Lin pulled out his long knife and screamed and slapped his horse.
Chen Ran's whole body was full of black qi, giving people an unfathomable feeling. Unexpectedly, before Ma Lin could get close to him, he turned his horse and walked towards the city gate.
I have to say that Ma Lin's equestrian skills are still very exquisite. One moment he was rushing forward with great momentum, and the next second he could turn the horse's head and run away, which ordinary people really can't do.
He said as he ran: "Wait, boy, I'll call our alliance leader to deal with you!"
When Chen Ran heard the word alliance leader, he immediately became curious. He didn't chase after him, but the bandits found out that the gang leader was gone, and they also abandoned their armor one by one and fled, without taking the looted property with them.
The raiders in the city were still coming, and they were stunned when they saw that their brothers were gone.
Chen Ran was about to send them away, when a loud noise was heard in the distance, and Xu Lai drove the mountain bandits to come. His eyes continued to release dark green beams of light, and many of the bandits were injured.
However, he didn't kill anyone, and Xu Lai hadn't killed anyone yet, so he only wanted to injure the mountain bandits so as to deter them. Chen Ran also put his mind at ease, he was afraid that Xu Lai would use his ability to kill, killing people would make people insensitive, Chen Ran had gone through assassin training, so he could look down on everything. But Xu Lai is not an assassin, so it is easy to get mad, and it seems that he will have to teach him how to control his mind in the future.
Xu Lai's strong attack frightened the rest of the bandits to flee one after another. Only then did he stop his divine eye ability, looked at Chen Ran and said, "The result is that you are one step ahead." ”
Chen Ran smiled: "I didn't deal with those little minions, but came here directly to meet their helper." ”
"Gang leader, do they still have a gang?" Xu Lai said in astonishment.
Chen Ran's expression was serious: "It's not that simple, it seems that there is some other alliance......"
Although the mountain bandits escaped, Xu Lai could use his Divine Vision ability to track their tracks, and it was only a matter of time before he found them. Therefore, the top priority was to return the looted property to the people of the city. But there are only two of them, so this matter has to be left to the City Lord's Mansion.
So the two of them moved their belongings to the City Lord's Mansion, and at this moment, at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, there were a large number of guards waiting for them, Feng Dan still had some status, and he was standing behind a commander.
Seeing Chen Ran and Xu Lai coming, Feng Dan shouted, "The assassin is coming! The assassin is coming!"
The Commander shouted, "Calm down!"
He looked at Chen Ran and the others, pointed the long sword in his hand at them, and said, "Do you want to take advantage of the chaos to attack the City Lord's Mansion?" The other party was the Night Moon Assassin, and he didn't dare to do it casually.
Xu Lai said dissatisfiedly: "We came here with good intentions, you actually fought against each other, why didn't you deal with the mountain bandits?"
The guards looked at each other, Chen Ran put the belongings on the ground, and said, "The mountain bandits have left, these are the things they looted, you can redistribute them to the people of the city." ”
The two turned to leave, Chen Ran suddenly thought of something, and turned around to warn: "I will supervise your distribution of property, if you dare to swallow it privately, I will not let you go!"
Hearing this, the guards did not dare to think otherwise.
Chen Ran and Xu Lai returned to the inn, and after a busy night, he and Mi Cai were also out of interest. Although they could do it on the spot, this was their first time, so they didn't want to solve it haphazardly, so everyone slept respectfully.
The next day, Chen Ran supervised the distribution of property in the City Lord's Mansion, and asked about the alliance by the way, but they only knew about the Yaoshan Gang, and as for the alliance, they really hadn't heard of it.
Seeing that the City Lord's Mansion was sincerely distributing the property, Chen Ran and his party also quietly left Qianyun City. However, they did not go towards the border, but entered Yaoshan.
Xu Lai unleashed his divine eye ability with all his might, exploring all the way. It's just that the mountains are not conducive to the horses to travel, so Chen Ran had to leave the bloody horses outside. The four of them, Xu Lai wanted to explore the way, and he couldn't leave Micai and Tong Tong behind, so no one watched the horse.
Chen Ran pondered: "Next time, I have to find a caretaker, who can take care of both the mount and the luggage......"
The four of them walked in the mountains, Tong Tong carried a medicine box on his back, and the herbs in the deep mountains were abundant.
Chen Ran and the others didn't say anything, just because everyone came to the mountains to enjoy the scenery, so they were not in a hurry.
It's going to be night soon, and the four of them are about to stop and rest, Xu Lai is also overusing his ability, his eyes are red, and he is too tired to do it.
"Look, there's a fire ahead!" Tong Tong suddenly shouted.
Everyone saw that there was indeed a fire beating in front of them. Chen Ran turned into a cloud of black gas and went to check the situation alone.
There are four mountain bandits eating around the bonfire, they are the sentries of the Yaoshan Gang, even at night, they do not return to the cottage, and they probe the situation in the mountains day and night.
Chen Ran directly picked up a person, and the mountain bandits saw that their companions were taken away by a cloud of black gas, and immediately shouted for help and fled away. Chen Ran brought the mountain bandit to Mi Cai and said, "It's up to you." ”
"What are you going to do?" asked the bandits, trembling.
Mi Cai used his mental power ability to probe his memory, and the other party, an ordinary person, couldn't block the invasion of mental power ability at all.
"I know the way to the cottage!" said Mi Cai confidently.
Chen Ran said: "Then let's go, maybe the mountain bandits who just escaped have already gone to report." "He deliberately let those people go, so that he could lure the snake out of the hole.
The four of them left the hijacked bandits and marched towards the cottage under the leadership of Mi Cai. After walking for an hour, I saw the lights in front of me.
It was a cottage made of wood, and the gate was closed at the moment.
The mountain bandits who escaped before have not returned, they are very clever, and they are afraid of being followed, so they went on a long detour, but Chen Ran and the four of them arrived at the gate of the cottage first.
Ma Lin in the cottage didn't know they were coming, and he didn't have time to take care of them. Since he met Shangchen last night, he hastened to inform the alliance leader, and now he is entertaining his allies......
