Chapter 239: Deserted Village, Broken House, Bonfire

With the arrival of the three horsemen, the two groups of fiery bandits who were fighting actually stopped together.

The three horsemen jumped off their horses and muttered with the leaders of the two gangs of bandits for a long time, took out a roll of paper from their arms, unfolded it and watched it with the two, then rolled up the paper and put it away, handed it to the two bandit leaders with a triangular tiger head flag, and then stepped on the horse and left.

The two gangs of bandits had no intention of fighting again, and after glaring at each other for a few words, and after scolding a few words, they lifted the wounded and dead bandits on the ground and walked away.

Rong Fei, who was lying on the top of the mountain and peeking, was amazed.

At this time, Bai Zizi also came over, and was dissatisfied when he saw the two groups of bandits who had retreated.

"Why did I stop as soon as I came over to see it, and it was clear that I wouldn't give me face."

"Who knows."

Rong Fei turned his head and replied casually.

Although he used his spiritual hearing power just now to hear the following conversation clearly, he couldn't tell Bai Zizi to listen, otherwise he would not be exposed if he saw the magic power from the wall.

Bai Zizai heard the sound behind him, turned his head and saw that Murong Canghai had finished teasing and opened his eyes, so he urged.

"Niubi, hurry up and take a look, there are still a few days before the ruins open, so let's prepare early."

Murong Canghai nodded, got up and stood facing the west, muttering words in his mouth, pinching the trick with both hands and then wiping his fingertips over his eyelids.

"This is the method of looking at the qi of the Qiankun view, which can gain insight into the changes in the qi of heaven and earth. When the ancient ruins appear, the qi of heaven and earth will converge towards the ruins, and when the purple qi reaches the level of purple qi piercing the clouds, it is the day when the ruins are opened. ”

Bai Zizi explained to Rong Fei in a low voice.

Rong Fei's heart moved slightly when he heard this, and while nodding in response to Bai Zizi, he quietly used his spiritual vision to look towards the western sky.

I saw a dark red, tornado-like cyclone standing between the heavens and the earth, which was magnificent.

Such a vision shocked Rong Fei, and he was a little stunned for a while.

On the other side, Murong Canghai retracted his gaze and said to the two.

"The qi of heaven and earth is now dark red, and according to past experience, it will take as little as two or three days, and as much as four or five days, and the ruins will definitely be opened. Third brother, what's wrong with you, but you're not feeling well? ”

Seeing that Rong Fei's eyes were a little dull, Murong Canghai asked with concern.

"Oh, I'm fine. I just remembered the Shushan Wei Junxian mentioned by the two brothers, and I don't know if he has arrived in Linzhou and prepared what means to deal with us. ”

Rong Fei put away his supernatural powers and dealt with them casually.

As soon as the words fell, I suddenly remembered the conversation between the three horsemen and the bandit leader just now, and my heart couldn't help but move.

"I'll do something, I'll go back when I go."

With a word, Rong Fei used his golden light magic power and chased in the direction where the three horsemen left.

……

The bandits in Linzhou have been suffering from illness for a hundred years, and at the beginning, the imperial court also dispatched a large army to suppress it several times, and a lot of money and food were consumed, but the results were very small, and even the bandits had the tendency to suppress more and more.

Linzhou is not a major place for grain production and taxation, and after tossing a few times, I didn't get any benefits, but I almost folded a lot of capital in it. After a big man in the imperial court dialed the abacus beads, he simply let it go. Two guards were dispatched to guard several important county seats, ensuring that Linzhou was still nominally under the jurisdiction of the Great Yan court.

What? What about the people of Linzhou who are living in dire straits?

Hehe, how can there be any good people in Linzhou, but they are just a family of bandits, otherwise how would there be more and more bandits.

As for how many good people were ruined by the excesses and miscellaneous taxes, they were forced to go to the bandits.

How many villages were looted and razed to the ground by the officers and soldiers who suppressed the bandits, etc., but these are not within the scope of the thinking of the court ministers.

Poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, and the time and place are favorable, which is also a helpless thing.

Huwei City, one of the three major bandit cities in Linzhou.

The bandit leader Duan Hong regarded himself as the lord of the city, and the 40,000 bandits under his command were known as the Tiger Army.

Duan Hong imitated the military system of Dayan, and set up a total of four soldiers in the army, each with 10,000 bandits. Under the general army, there are thousands of households, hundreds of households, general flags, small flags, and so on.

"Brother Chen Guang, I heard that Xiangshanzhai was occupied by a group of beautiful ladies with national beauty, you just went there a few days ago, and you have a real relationship with your brother, whether the rumors are true."

Outside the south gate of Huwei City, a black-faced man pulled down Chen Guang's sleeve and asked in an obscene whisper.

The black-faced man was a burly man, dressed in a gray homespun shirt, with straw sandals on his feet, and a piece of red cloth tied around his right arm, embroidered with a yellow tiger head and the word "Baihu".

Chen Guang was still dressed three days ago, and a red cloth was also tied to his right arm, but it was embroidered with a wing and the word wingback.

The wing guard, the pro-army of the city lord Duan Hong, is taken as the meaning of a tiger with wings.

When Chen Guang heard this, he immediately smiled knowingly and replied in a low voice.

"More than two hundred fairy-like little ladies, and more than a dozen rabbits who look more beautiful than the girls, if it weren't for the fear of delaying the city lord's major affairs, brother, I would want to live in Xiangshanzhai forever and not come back, hahaha."

"Tell me honestly, how many girls have you slept with, how are you able to serve people?"

"Tsk!"

Chen Guang smashed his mouth with a retrospective taste, thinking about how to phrase the answer to make it sound like the real thing, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a group of people walking towards this direction in the distance.

It is Zhang Jun, Li Yun and others in Xiangshanzhai.

Chen Guang hurriedly whispered in Baihu's ear.

"The lord is here, take care of his brothers, don't miss the city lord's big things. A group of outsiders, waiting for this matter, it's not like our brothers are poking and pinching flat, seven in and seven out, hehehehehe. ”

After saying that, Chen Guang put away his heart and greeted Zhang Jun with a warm smile on his face.

When he got closer, Chen Guang noticed that the people who came to Xiangshanzhai this time were all men, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost in his heart.

Although I can't touch it now, it's good to take a few more looks to satisfy my cravings.

……

It was darker than Kyoto Castle on this side of Linzhou, and after the last light of the day faded, it began to rain in the sky again, which added a bit of depression to the chill of this late autumn.

Deserted villages, broken houses, fires.

Rong Fei sat in the center, holding a bounty notice with three heads painted on it.

"This ugly one is definitely not me."

Bai Zizi pointed to the avatar on the left and said in an affirmative tone.

Rong Fei removed his thumb and revealed the words 'Bai Zizi' written under the avatar.

Below the other two avatars are the names of Rong Fei and Murong Canghai respectively.

Murong Canghai took out roast chicken and steamed buns from the storage jade ring, put them on the fire with a branch and heated them, and then clapped his hands and asked Rong Fei.

"So you think it's Wei Junxian who bribed the bandits in Linzhou to deal with us."

"Probably so."

After Rong Fei stuffed the notice to Bai Zizi, who was angry, he picked up a branch and replied while stirring the fire.

"What can you do with those goods?"

Bai Zizi said nonchalantly.

"Ants bite elephants to death. I have heard that there are almost hundreds of bandit villages in Linzhou, with a total of more than 100,000 people. If these more than 100,000 people surround the ancient ruins, do you think the three of us can rush in? Don't forget that we haven't reached the realm of invulnerability, and we will die if we are shot by a knife and arrow. And even if you can get in, how much does it cost? After entering, how to walk in front of the other monks recruited by Wei Junxian? ”

"Hiss~"

Bai Zizi, who reacted, suddenly felt a little toothache.

"Well, listening to the third brother say this, it is indeed Wei Junxian's wind..."

Murong Canghai nodded in response, but before he could finish speaking, a strong gust of wind passed through the broken house.

The three of them saw a flower in front of them, as if something was flying in front of them.

"Huh... What about roast chicken? What about steamed buns? ”

Bai Zizi pointed to the fire and shouted.

Rong Fei and Murong Canghai twitched their noses.

The two of them smelled a foul smell in the air, much like... Corpse stench!
