After coming to Xujia Village, Xu Ping did not see the busy autumn harvest scene, on the contrary, it was full of devastation, and even a few families in the village hung white flags at the door.

What's going on? Dead in the village again?

This makes Xu Ping easily think of those who go out to mine, fifty people go out together, and some people are killed and injured every year, I don't know how many people are left now?

On the contrary, the rebellion was over, and the rebels who rebelled finally won the victory, and Prince Xuan became the new emperor.

Soon after the establishment of the new dynasty, a major military downsizing began, and some of the temporarily recruited officers and soldiers had been sent home, which was the latest news that Xu Ping had heard in the south.

Originally, he still wanted to find Xu Dali, but after hearing the news, he knew that he didn't need to look for it anymore, if Xu Dali didn't die on the battlefield, he would definitely be sent home by the government.

Maybe when he returned home, Xu Dali had already returned home, and he didn't need to look for it at all.

"Xu Ping, you're back!"

After someone saw Xu Ping, they came over to say hello.

"I'm back, what's going on in the village?"

"Hey, you just came back, you don't know about it, something happened in Xujia Village, and your family is in big trouble!"

"What's the trouble?" Xu Ping immediately realized that something was wrong, and hurried home, hoping that Qiao'er and Fei'er would be fine, especially Fei'er, if something happened to her, Xu Ping didn't know how to comfort her parents' spirits in the sky.

With a "bang", the courtyard door was slammed open by Xu Ping, which frightened Qiao'er and Fei'er in the courtyard.

"Brother Xu!" After seeing Xu Ping in front of her clearly, Fei'er ran back crying, hugged Xu Ping and didn't let go.

"It's okay, you're all right!" Seeing that Qiao'er and Fei'er were fine, Xu Ping took a long breath.

"Brother Xu, if you don't come back, Sister Qiao'er will be snatched away!" Phil continued to cry.

"Robbed? Who dares to rob Qiao'er? ”

"It's a bandit, who came to the village a few days ago to burn, kill and loot, and kidnap Sister Qiao'er as a lady of the village."

"Bandits?" Xu Ping was furious when he heard this, he had only been gone for more than four months, and the bandits were so rampant? not only robbed Xujia Village, but also kidnapped Qiao'er as the wife of the village?

"Thanks to the village chief, if he hadn't stopped me, I would have been ...... by now" Qiao'er lowered her head in shame.

"Don't be afraid, since I'm here, there will be nothing to do in the future!" Xu Ping tried his best to comfort Qiao'er.

At this time, the old village chief was helped over.

"Xu Ping, you're back!"

"Old village chief, I'm back! This is...... Uncle Strong? Xu Ping beckoned people in, and then saw Xu Dali behind the village chief, who was less than forty years old, how could he be haggard like this, so that he almost didn't dare to recognize him.

"Dali came back last month, fortunately he is still alive and not killed on the battlefield, but he is missing an arm, and now the whole person is useless!"

Xu Ping noticed that the sleeve of Xu Dali's right shirt was empty, and after seeing Xu Ping, Xu Dali glanced up, and then began to fall silent again.

It seems that this war has caused him a lot of damage, a second-rate martial artist, who is actually decadent like this, does not care about his image at all, has a scruffy beard, obviously has not taken care of it for a long time, and more importantly, his heart is dead, and there is no difference between being alive and a dead person.

Xu Ping didn't have time to comfort him, and after helping the old village chief to the living room, he began to ask, "Village chief, what's going on in the village?" And what about bandits? ”

"It's all my fault! At the beginning, I was soft-hearted, I didn't let people kill them all, and let that kid go, but I didn't expect to cause such a big disaster to the village! ”

After Xu Dajiang's family was slaughtered by immortal cultivators, if he hadn't been soft-hearted at that time and didn't notify the Xu family's immortal cultivators in time, how could Xu Dajiang's son escape?

Today, Xu Dajiang's son has returned and begun to take revenge on Xujia Village, not only to pay for the blood debt, but also to rob the food and women of Xujia Village.

After listening to the old village chief's story, Xu Ping knew the reason for the incident, and this matter had something to do with him, after he was sent to Xujia Village, he was fostered in Xu Dajiang's home. Last year, an immortal passed by, and after learning about Xu Ping's abuse, he waved his hand and wiped out Xu Dajiang's family.

How did he think that Xu Dajiang's family still had fish that slipped through the net, Xu Dajiang's son Xu Zhuang practiced martial arts in Baishui City, and after learning the news that his family was killed, he escaped from Baishui City overnight.

After the end of the war, Xu Zhuang returned to Qinan County with his people and occupied Sancha Mountain and Caomangling in one fell swoop.

"Village Chief, didn't you inform the immortals of the Xu Clan's Immortal Cultivation Family? Didn't they come down the mountain to deal with it? ”

"As long as there is no such thing as destroying the village and destroying the clan, immortal cultivators will not bother to care about these mundane things." The old village chief shook his head, in the eyes of immortal cultivators, the death of a few people, or being extorted food by bandits, are all trivial matters.

"Village Chief, then tell me who are the bandits who occupy Sancha Mountain and Caomangling?" Since the Xu family's immortal cultivation family didn't care, Xu Ping had no choice but to take action in person.

"I heard that there are seven or eight hundred bandits in Sancha Mountain and Caomangling, and the leader is Xu Zhuang, the son of Xu Dajiang, and his two sworn brothers, known as the Flying Centipede and the Diamond Mountain Leopard, but no one knows their real names."

The old village chief told Xu Ping everything he knew and heard before, and also reminded: "These three people are all first-class masters, and it is said that they have retired from the army. ”

"A first-class master?"

Xu Ping immediately sneered after hearing this, several first-class masters were so arrogant, they really didn't want to live.

"Village chief, don't be afraid, I am already a first-class master now, and I can keep Xujia Village safe and sound."

"You're a first-class master now?" The old village chief was overjoyed when he heard this, but he immediately shook his head and said: "It's useless, you are the only one in the village, there are not too many helpers, you can't resist those bandits, you take the two of them and run away quickly, run away, don't come back in the future!" ”

"It's impossible to escape!"

Xu Ping heard a noise outside, someone shouting loudly, and the neighing of horses.

"Ah, the bandits are here again!" When the old village chief, father and son heard this, their faces changed drastically in an instant, and they hurriedly stood up.

"You stay at home, I'll go back!"

Xu Ping gave two direct instructions to Qiao'er and Fei'er, and then followed the old village chief out of the house.

"Brother Xu, you must be careful!"

Fei'er wanted to go with Xu Ping, but she was small, and it was a burden to go, so she could only wish Xu Ping nothing to do.

At this time, two or three hundred bandits came to Xujia Village, and the water surrounding Xujia Village was blocked for a while, even if the villagers of Xujia Village wanted to escape now, it was no longer possible.

"Where are the stewards of your village? Let him come out to see me quickly, three days have come, how is the food prepared? And that delicate girl, you must go back to the mountain with us today, don't delay the third master to enter the cave room at night! ”
