When the old man took the 1,000 taels of silver tickets, who knew that he didn't give anything, which made Li Chunfeng stunned on the spot, and after coming over for a while, he came to his senses and asked with difficulty: "How senior, what about things?" ”

Who knew that the old man stretched out another finger and said, "There is still a thousand taels left, as I said just now, two thousand taels is two thousand taels, and not a penny less." ”

At this time, Li Chunfeng's face was already full of black lines, and in order to get the news as soon as possible, he took out another thousand taels of silver tickets and taught the old man.

After the old man took the silver ticket, his face showed ecstasy, he took out an envelope and handed it to Li Chunfeng, and said, "It contains detailed information about the Hou family, just open it directly." ”

Seeing Li Chunfeng turn around, the old man sneered on the side: "Either you don't open it, or you open it for a year, this fool's money is really easy to earn, if you meet a few more in the future, won't the old man send it." ”

Li Chunfeng didn't pay attention to the old man's yin and yang weirdness, now he just wanted to go out and find a quiet place to read the contents of the envelope.

But Li Chunfeng hadn't walked a few steps, and was stopped by the old man, just now he felt that this kid's money was too easy to earn, it was better to make a mistake, how happy it was.

Li Chunfeng naturally knew that this old man didn't hold back his fart, and after hesitating for a moment, he still wanted to see what tricks this old man was playing?

Coming to the old man, Li Chunfeng looked at the former with a smile on his face and asked, "What's the senior, is there anything else?" ”

When he saw the fish biting the hook, he immediately stretched out another finger and said, "You give me another 1,000 taels of silver tickets, and I will keep it secret for you." ”

Hearing this, Li Chunfeng's smile disappeared immediately, could this old man really take him for a fool? Now everyone is watching, if this old man is bullied like this again, it will be difficult to get out alive today, and this old man must be taught a lesson.

Li Chunfeng pretended not to pay attention to the old man, turned around and was about to leave, the latter saw that he was despised by a junior, how could he mix in this area in the future, he stood up and was ready to make a move, and realized that the old man's martial arts were only in the Jindan realm, Li Chunfeng sneered, the sword shadow flashed, the old man didn't see anything clearly, his right hand was cut off, and he rolled on the ground in pain.

When the people present saw this scene, they were so frightened that they didn't dare to move, and they were timid and collapsed directly to the ground, how old is this kid, and he reached the realm of breaking the ground, and the old man was unlucky this time, provoking such a plague god.

Coming to the old man, Li Chunfeng squatted down and said, "The two thousand taels of silver should be used as your soup and medicine fee, and as for this broken hand, I should teach you a lesson." ”

After finishing speaking, Li Chunfeng turned around and was about to leave, but the old man reluctantly stood up again, he pointed at Li Chunfeng with his severed arm, and asked, "Boy, there is a kind of reporting name." ”

Li Chunfeng said as he walked: "My surname is Li, my name is Chunfeng, if you want to seek revenge on me, you can accompany me at any time." ”

After leaving the dark market, Li Chunfeng left the city and prepared to go to the Hou family.

When he came to the bottom of a big tree, Li Chunfeng took out the envelope, opened it and took out a few pieces of paper, and he read them one by one.

There are more than a dozen strong people in this Hou family, and most of the martial arts realms are under the realm of breaking the ground, only their patriarch, that is, the martial arts realm of the big boss, has reached the upper three mirrors, when reading this, Li Chunfeng has a big head for a while, this Hou family is not a small sect at all, there is such a patriarch in charge, it is not an exaggeration to say that the last sentence is a superior sect.

And the reason why this Hou family will hide their own strength is to avoid attracting the attention of the imperial court, a small bandit nest, and it is not the turn of the imperial court to come out, so that they can secretly develop until they become one of the best sects in the entire Zhongzhou.

The Hou family also has an inexplicable relationship with the Yu family, the Hou family needs the protection of King Yu, so that they can better rob the people's treasures, and King Yu can ask the Hou family for a large amount of protection money, which is just used to enrich military expenses in order to recruit troops.

After reading it, Li Chunfeng burned the papers with a fire fold, and then set off, the closer he got to the Hou family's territory, the more strange the people behaved there, they were in a hurry, no one paid attention to anyone, but the doors of every house were closed, no matter how Li Chunfeng knocked on the doors of those people, no one came out to deal with it, which made Li Chunfeng a little puzzled, what happened to the people here, why was it so strange?

After a day's journey, Li Chunfeng did not find a place to stay, so he decided to set up camp next to a small stream, and catch a few small fish in the river by the way.

Just took off his shoes and was about to enter the creek, but Li Chunfeng found a five or six-year-old girl looking at him with a smile, which reminded him of Tianxi, I wonder if this girl is doing well in Qingyou Valley?

At this moment, a group of people on tall horses galloped towards the city, about forty or fifty people, all armed with weapons, and with fierce eyes, and they were not good people at first sight.

The group of people were riding horses, holding the reins in their left hand and their swords in their right hand, and making strange noises in their mouths, which looked like bandits in the vicinity.

Seeing this situation, Li Chunfeng dodged to protect the little girl, and quickly came to the nearby grass to hide.

The group of people rode to Li Chunfeng's position just now and stopped, and the burly man at the front of the team said to everyone suspiciously: "I clearly saw a kid here just now, why did he suddenly disappear, could it be that he escaped?" ”

A man next to him reminded: "Head, let's leave him alone for now, hurry up and join the four masters, so as not to miss a big event." ”

The man nodded, and immediately rode to the nearby village, and when he saw that the group of people had left, Li Chunfeng walked out of the grass with the little girl in his arms.

The little girl was really frightened by Li Chunfeng's actions just now, and she actually started crying, and it took him a lot of effort to coax the little girl well.

Li Chunfeng squatted down, touched the little girl's little head, and asked, "Where is your home?" I'll send you back. ”

The little girl pointed in the direction where the group was going and said, "My house is over there, and I'll take you there." ”

Looking at the direction the little girl was pointing, Li Chunfeng suddenly had a bad premonition, if this group of people was really bandits, wouldn't the little girl's village be in trouble.

Now I can't think too much about it, and I have to save the villagers before the robbers make a move, so Li Zhuliu asked the little girl to lead the way, and told her to be careful and not let the group find out.

The little girl knew that Li Chunfeng was not a bad person, so she nodded very sensibly.

From a long distance, the two saw bursts of smoke coming from above the village, not like the smoke from the people cooking on the fire, but like the smoke from the houses being ignited.

Coming to the vicinity of the village, there are many people with weapons guarding outside, if Li Chunfeng didn't take the little girl, it would be easy to sneak in unknowingly, now I can only find a place to hide the little girl, and wait for the opportunity to move later.

Fortunately, this village is built in a hollow, surrounded by many mountains and rocks, and it is very simple to hide it, Li Chunfeng picked up the little girl again, flew into a boulder, and immediately lay down, where you can just see the situation below.

At this time, the village was already in shambles, many robbers with torches in their hands, burning one thatched hut after another, and the people of the village were gathered together, and a middle-aged man in armor was pacing back and forth in front of the villagers, asking them where the food was.

This group of people is the people of the Hou family, they came this time, they came to rob the grain and grass, but this group of robbers rummaged through the village, and did not see a shadow of grain, so they gathered all the villagers here, ready to ask the whereabouts of the grain.

This man in armor is the fourth leader of the Hou family, because he usually likes those generals who gallop on the battlefield, in order to live a general's addiction, he doesn't know where to find such a pair of armor to wear on his body, calling himself the general of the Hou family, but combined with his identity and the crime of robbing the house, wearing this armor, there is always a feeling of being a little nondescript.

This group of villagers is not stupid, there are so many bandits here, hiding the food at home in case it is robbed, and they can only starve to death in the following days, so they hide the food in the back mountain, guarded by the strong laborers in the village, and take it as they want.

These four masters do not rob the gold and silver treasures, but attack the people's grain, it is not the king of Nayu who has given an order, this year he will raise grain and grass to prepare for war, and the Hou family will pay nearly 100,000 deniers of grain and grass, if they do not hand it in time, they will bear the consequences.

For such a huge task of handing over grain and grass, the Hou family dared not speak out, it seems that they are extremely brave, in case they turn against King Yu, his tens of thousands of elite soldiers can destroy them in the blink of an eye, so this task has to be accepted if it is not accepted.

Li Chunfeng was very angry at these officials and bandits colluding with him, King Yu must know very well in his heart that he handed over such a heavy grain and grass to the Hou family, even if they had money, it was impossible for them to buy so much grain and grass in a short time, and they could only rob the common people, what is the difference between this and King Yu's direct arson robbery, no wonder it is so weird here.

Li Chunfeng guessed that there was another use for this King Yu to keep the Hou family, that is, to ask the court for money in the name of suppressing bandits, in order to expand his military strength, in the end, the more bandits were suppressed, and more and more money was asked from the court, and the court could not help but give it, otherwise it would fall into the notoriety of not loving his subjects and indulging robbers.

Like King Yu, a prince who does not cherish the people and colludes with robbers, today he looks very powerful, and tomorrow he will collapse like a pavilion without a foundation.

Seeing that there was no useful information from the mouths of this group of villagers, the four masters were anxious and angry, and shouted at everyone: "Which of you is the village chief, hurry up and get out of here." ”

A tall and thin old man stood up in the middle of the crowd and said, "I am!" ”
