Volume 3: Rise Chapter 163 The Ambition of the Lord Next Door

"Are you alright?"

Jiang Ningyuan's eyes swept over the few people in front of him, and then asked casually.

In fact, most of these are ordinary people's strength, and there are only two or three bandits who barely have E-level combat effectiveness, and it is impossible to cause any harm to Su Yingying and the others.

"We're fine, but it's hard to talk about these guys."

She shrugged her shoulders and looked at the bandit leader who was kneeling on the ground with Jiang Ningyuan, as well as the three or four followers who were already frightened.

Under Zhao Yu's cold questioning, several robbers who were originally just farmers explained their origins and purposes clearly.

Originally, the bandit leader wanted to stop it, but under Jiang Ningyuan's fierce gaze, he could only bow his head and swallow back the words that came to his mouth.

After a long while, under the gossip of several people, a group of people barely understood a rough idea.

These robbers are indeed farmers in the village under the command of the lord next door, as the village chief Kawada said, but because of the insect plague this year, they have no harvest, so they can only go out to raid as bandits.

In this, some samurai belonging to the lord played a great role, bringing detailed information and directing the rabble to attack the surrounding villages.

At the same time, under the guidance of these samurai, these farmers went from just trying to grab some food to grabbing everything.

Food, treasures, women, and even children were snatched and carried back to their own homes.

After all, for these people in today's era, in addition to food, the most important thing is the labor force to work in the fields.

Adults don't dare to rob them, but half-grown children don't have pressure, and in a few years, they will naturally take root in their village and become their own people.

"Tell me, what other plans do you lords have?"

After the guys who were farmers and robbers later finished speaking, Jiang Ningyuan looked at the leader with an expressionless face.

He didn't believe that the lord of the other party had spent so much effort just to help his own subjects grab food!

If they had such good intentions, it would be impossible for these farmers to risk their lives to rob.

Hearing this, the bandit leader avoided saying a word, lowered his head and dodged, as if he was thinking about how to deceive the people in front of him.

As a samurai, and a samurai under the command of the lord, since he enjoys the honor, he must bear the corresponding responsibility, even if the jade is broken......

"If you don't say it, Kurosawa, this person will be given to you, he should be stained with the blood of your villagers, right?"

Jiang Ningyuan turned around very simply, and said to Kurosawa Nao and the others who had already surrounded him: "If you want to kill, you will be killed, as for whether you want to torture to death, it depends on your will, even if you want to use a blunt knife to cut off a piece of his flesh." ”

Under Fang Xiaoxiao's affectionate translation, Kurosawa Nao and the others immediately smiled in understanding, and then walked towards the few captives in front of them step by step.

And the bandit leader, when he threw aside the so-called samurai glory, shouted in a trembling voice, "I say! ”

Almost at the same time as the words first started, Jiang Ningyuan, who was facing away from him, showed a smile on his face.

The so-called samurai honor, except for those whose brains have been washed into idiots, is just not at the limit.

In the face of personal desires, the so-called honor and faith are just not enough.

Only collective glory, or racial dignity, is fearless in the true sense of the word.

After a long while, after listening to the robber leader's explanation, the faces of Jiang Ningyuan and Kurosawa Nao suddenly sank.

According to this man, his loyal lord ordered the samurai to lead the peasants into robbers to ransack the villages of the Maoshan Lord, and on the other hand, to gather troops in secret.

If the lords of the Maoshan Domain send troops because of this, these armies will take advantage of the other party's suppression of bandits and eat them completely.

If the lord of Maoshan turns a blind eye, these armies will take advantage of the cover of bandits to attack the main city of the lord of Maoshan.

It seems that no matter how the lord of the Maoshan Domain chooses, it has been properly arranged by this hostile lord, and there is no way to escape the road of destruction left and right.

At this time, Kurosawa was worried about how much damage their village would suffer in this war.

Will all the homes be destroyed and all will be turned into displaced people, or will all the people left be slaughtered?

Jiang Ningyuan, who was on the side, couldn't help but sigh repeatedly in his heart after hearing these things.

If he was not mistaken, their mission had risen from dealing with bandits, to protecting the village from threats, and possibly even defending against enemy lords.

The words of the former are relatively simple, and it is not difficult to do them with their strength, but if it is the latter, it is possible to usher in the gaze of the boss of the rival lord, one of the five city lords.

If that's the case, then it's really a big problem.

Jiang Ningyuan didn't think that with his B-level combat power, he could be the power to attack a city with a gun.

As for taking Su Yingying with them?

Alas......

sighed silently, although it is not impossible, but if they do this, even if they can get lucky in the end, then they will inevitably suffer heavy losses, and someone will definitely die because of it.

And how to bring a few people back safely and silently is his most important task.

There can be suffering, but there can be no loss of life.

"Ginger-sama......"

Suddenly, Kurosawa, who had been frowning and pondering, called out.

And it is not surprising that what he asked for was nothing more than a prayer to help the people of the village.

Regarding this, Jiang Ningyuan can be said to have agreed without hesitation, because this is his current task.

After a while, he took Su Yingying and others back to the village, and at this time, the dozens of members of the film crew, the two stars and dozens of people under his hands had already gathered at the entrance and exit of the village.

At this time, a group of villagers were holding scythes and other farm tools, although there was fear in their eyes, they still did not retreat at the door, organizing these strangers in strange costumes to enter.

And the two celebrities, under the protection of assistants, bodyguards and others, almost broke in directly, although the loess mud wall looked rough and unbearable, but it can unexpectedly give people a sense of security.

On the contrary, it was the people of the filming crew, who stayed aside one by one with all kinds of expensive equipment at this time, they did not argue or quarrel, but just looked vigilantly in the direction they came.

It is good if they can enter the village, although the mud walls look simple, but they can also make people feel a little more at ease, but if they can't get in, it doesn't matter, once there is danger, they will react in time, and run from the other direction as quickly as possible.

After all, they are all old people in the industry, and sometimes they will go to some remote areas, and the residents of some small countries are not friendly, and they will do blackmail, robbery and even kidnapping at every turn.

So they are also experienced and know how to face the situation in front of them.
