Chapter Eighty-Three: Instigation, Coercion and Inducement
In the jungle.
Xu Sanmao, the bandit leader of Black Wind Village.
is leading the twelve junior brothers with the strongest martial arts under his hands.
Squatting in the dense forest, he watched with green eyes as the food team passed below.
Hearing Zhang Junlin's words echoing in front of him, Xu Sanmao saw many small groups of robbers, all of whom turned around and left.
was so angry that he spat a mouthful of phlegm directly on the ground.
"Phew! In vain, Lao Tzu called them to come together to get rich and grab the grain truck, and they actually ran away! ”
"A bunch of cowards!"
When the younger brothers heard the boss's scolding, their expressions were very complicated.
The boss said to them just now.
The convoy to be robbed was escorted by a large number of experts.
If the small bandits don't do it, they must not be sent to their deaths.
Now he dislikes those who know how to practice and turn around and run away.
If it weren't for the boss here.
Many of them might have put down their axes and gone home to farm.
"Big brother, didn't you say that it was the officials of the government who escorted the grain?"
"But the following is clearly His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and his personal guards, do you really want to rob this batch of grain?"
A thin, short, yellow-skinned boy dressed in a patched gray linen coat and straw sandals with bare toes, no more than sixteen or seventeen years old, spoke in a low voice.
Don't look at him as the youngest.
But it's the brightest brain in it.
Many times of robbing homes and houses, how to act, are all arranged by the teenager.
Try to avoid conflicts between the two sides as much as possible and reduce casualties.
But those who did not participate in it were either maimed or killed by others or by losing the lives of their own people.
Therefore, among the robbers, there are many people who respect him.
"Big brother, this is imperial grain, it's not like an ordinary robbery, you will lose your head if you rob it."
"Yes, big brother, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince said just now, as long as you are willing to work, you don't have to rob your house anymore, we were forced to become robbers, don't we just want to live?"
In this way, many people immediately echoed it.
Seeing this, the young man continued to persuade Xu Sanmao.
"Big brother, the work of these three-legged cats under our hands, if we really rob those valuables escorted by the dart master, there is only one way out."
"These days, that is, to rob some lonely and down-and-out households, we can't make a fortune as robbers, and now that we have a chance to change, I think it's better to dismiss everyone and go home to farm."
"Yes, yes, the second master is right!"
Although Xu Sanmao did not elect other leaders.
in case of dividing their own forces.
But as soon as everyone said this, it came out.
Xu Sanmao knew that this hairy boy in front of him.
I can't stay.
"Can't get rich?"
Xu Sanmao pointed to the grain carts slowly passing by in the valley.
Revealing a coveted look.
"Isn't that a great fortune?"
"One stone of grain is fifty catties, one pound of grain is ten cents, one stone of grain is five hundred cents, and two stones are one tael of silver! Twenty stone is one gold! ”
"This cart of grain has forty stones, which is worth two gold!"
"Can your whole family get one or two silver a year by planting ten acres of land?"
The grass is the one who falls into the grass.
Most of them don't know how to count.
But they also understand the algorithm of this account.
Grab a car to get two gold.
Many people who have planted land for a lifetime may not be able to get two golds!
"I'll do it with my eldest brother, if you want to farm, you can plant!"
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and those old men are all the way to loot the people's fat and people's ointment, how can they give us land for nothing."
"I'm afraid that when the time comes, we will plant the wasteland into fertile land, and we will either take it back or we can't afford to plant it with additional taxes, so it is better to rob his mother!"
The young man glanced at the man who had encouraged everyone to oppose the prince.
This is a newcomer who has become the boss's henchman in a few days.
Claiming to be Xu Gui.
Because he has the same surname as the boss, he claims to be a brother of his family.
Xu Gui was wearing the same patched clothes as them.
It can be changed and washed very diligently, and it is very concerned about whether the appearance is clean or not.
It's different from those of them who are shaving in their native land.
Before today.
The young man only thought that Xu Gui was a robber who loved cleanliness, or he was born in a poor family, so he had to embark on the road of robbers.
But today's grain truck is passing by here, and it is the news that Xu Gui told the boss.
Plus the speech at this time.
The boy suspected that the man had bad intentions.
"Xu Gui, where did you say your family lived?"
The young man walked to Xu Gui's side quietly.
Thin, he seemed powerless.
In fact, since he was a child, he learned a few tricks from a martial artist who passed by a village.
The martial artist praised him for his talent for cultivating martial arts.
It's a pity that the warrior was hunted down by the enemy and left after a few days.
Rao is so.
Just rely on the three tricks that the other party taught him.
He will be able to fight all over the village.
It is a pity that South Vietnam emphasized culture over military force.
He has been a refugee since he was a child, and he doesn't even have a household registration, let alone a high-ranking official or nobleman.
I can only get by by doing odd jobs.
Despite this, he can make a living by working hard, but he can also make a living.
If it weren't for the encounter with this group of robbers, if they didn't fight and didn't know each other, they would have gone to work in Zhenzhou City at this time and earn double the wages of the magnates.
Now I want to take advantage of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince to come and settle a household registration.
It's also a way to live a peaceful life.
"My family lives in Jinling City, and I am the guard of the Xia family of the national abbot, and I came to ask you for help."
What?!
The young man also wanted to verify where the village where Xu Gui came from last time and who it was.
I didn't expect Xu Gui to suddenly change his words.
But.
The boy thought to himself.
Deal with a Xu Gui who even panted for breath when he was carrying bags of grain on weekdays.
Naturally, it is not a problem.
"You dare to lie to us, I ......"
The boy's fist just raised.
The neck is cold.
Blood gushed out.
The boy stared down in disbelief at the dagger that sliced across his neck.
Finally realized.
Xu Gui not only concealed his true identity.
And also concealed the real strength!
"Relying on self-teaching to enter the first-order realm of martial arts, you can be regarded as capable."
"It's a pity that it has become a roadblock for me, and I can only kill you in order to complete the task assigned to me by the master."
Swish.
Xia Gui withdrew the dagger.
Put the blood on it.
He rubbed his head against the heart of a young man who had just supported the teenager's remarks.
Sting.
A sharp dagger that cut the patch.
Revealing a tanned chest.
Plop!
The boy clutched his blood-spurting neck and fell to the ground.
Others saw this.
I was so scared that I didn't dare to come out.
All looked at Xu Sanmao.
This person was picked up by Xu Sanmao halfway.
Of course, Xu Sanmao is responsible for something!
"Xu Gui, what do you, what do you want to do?"
"What I want to do is exactly what the boss wanted to do just now, rob this batch of grain, and make everyone make a windfall."
Xia Gui glanced at the people with hesitant expressions.
"There are more than 300 robbers gathered in Black Wind Village, and it's a pity that they disperse like this."
The dagger "clicked" suddenly.
Without warning, he passed through the young man whose chest was stained with blood.
"You...... Why...... I didn't say I didn't do ......"
The young man swallowed a mouthful of blood and regretted it.
I knew that if I didn't rob it, I would die.
He will definitely promise the boss to rob it.
Because he was a robber in the first place.
It's just to stay alive.
Now if you are not a robber, you will not live.
Of course he will continue to be.
"Which of you wants to quit this operation?"
Xia Gui glanced at the robbers who were still hesitant just now.
