Chapter 397: Thirst
After asking Jiang Fengnian's specific location, Li Yi and the three of them walked out of the room where Pan Yu was. And when the three of them left, Pan Yu frowned.
"Uncle Qian, how do I feel that there is something wrong with sending three people from the clan this time?" Pan Yu sat behind the table and frowned and said to the little man.
"Master, why do you say that?" The little man known as Uncle Qian asked puzzled.
"Uncle Qian, you also know that since I was born, I have been showing myself as the son of the master of the opera line, and I have only trained in the army for half a year when I am so old, so I don't know much about the other people in the clan, but I always feel that the three people just now are a little unusual." Pan Yu said after a moment of silence.
"Unusual?" The little man known as Uncle Qian also began to rub his chin and remember.
"Door master, when you say that, I also feel that something is not quite right." After a while, the little man also said with a solemn face.
"Uncle Qian, where did you see that?" Pan Yu then got up and asked.
"When I was outside just now, the leader of these three people was clearly the young boy."
"That's right, I said why I thought it was weird all along!" Pan Yu also slapped the table and suddenly realized.
As a member of the Qingjia Army, although he has only been trained in the Qingjia Army for half a year, he is very much of the Qingjia Army's systems.
One of the most important of these is to respect veterans. It's not just because of their tradition of respecting the old and loving the young.
The more important reason is that their Qingjia Army has been based on the hereditary military household system for more than 100 years. As a result, most of these older veterans are the elders of younger soldiers.
This special relationship due to blood relations has further deepened the concept of dignity and inferiority in their Qingjia army. So no matter what, as a member of the Qingjia Army, it is impossible for the four of them to let the junior be the leader.
"But the master of the door, maybe the youngest of the three is the one with the highest seniority, and I can't say for sure!" Then the short Uncle Qian guessed again.
After all, it has been hundreds of years since the implementation of the military household system in the Qingjia Army. In the past hundred years, in order to ensure the number of Qingjia Army, each family has had many babies.
This has also led to a large age gap among peers. After the accumulation of several generations, this age gap is likely to accumulate more and more, and eventually lead to the emergence of a situation where the age is not large but large.
"It's a possibility." Pan Yu also felt that the little Uncle Qian was reasonable. But he still felt that something was wrong.
And the short Uncle Qian obviously saw Pan Yu's worry, so he opened his mouth to comfort him.
"Maybe you're too nervous, you see that there is nothing wrong with the three of them just now, except for some irregularities on the issue of dignity and inferiority!"
"But I still think there's something wrong with them, but I can't remember it for a while!" Pan Yu scratched her head to calm herself down.
"Door master, don't think about it, they were able to answer each other fluently during the conversation just now, and you can also mention Jiang Fengnian, I observed that the young man with two guns on his back obviously showed a cold murderous aura!"
"Oh? And what else is there? Pan Yu obviously didn't feel it before, and Li Yi had a murderous aura on his body.
"That's right, you also know that I'm born short and suffer from white eyes, so I've developed the ability to read words and colors since I was a child, and because I'm short, I can often see expressions that others can't."
"In this way, that kid really moved the killing intent, but how can you be sure that the kid's killing intent is not coming at us?" Pan Yu was still a little uneasy, so he continued to ask.
"At this point, the door master can rest assured, that kid's eyes are glancing out of the door when he shows his murderous intent." The short Uncle Qian said with a smile on his face.
"So it really seems like I'm thinking too much." Pan Yu finally relieved himself under Uncle Qian's words.
At this time, the ghost doctor changed his majestic and calm appearance just now, and he followed behind Li Yi with his face crossed.
"Childe, what do you think I did just now?"
"Ghost doctor, I really didn't expect you guys to be acting, you really had some talent back then!" Li Yi didn't think that the ghost doctor would be able to pick up the words so smoothly in that situation just now, so that the two people who were in the scene didn't see the clues.
"The main thing is that those two guys are a little stupid, if they ask carefully, they will definitely find our horses' feet."
"It's not that they're stupid, it's just that people have habitual thinking, and even the smartest people can't jump out of it." Li Yi said casually.
"What is Childe's habitual thinking?" It was the first time that the ghost doctor had heard this term, although he had only been with Li Yi for a day or two, he could always hear some strange terms from Li Yi and Mu Junhe's mouths.
For example, when a person meets another person rushing towards him with a long knife, he will subconsciously think that the other party is here to kill him, but the fact may be that the other party is preparing to kill the wolf behind him with a knife, which is inertial thinking." Li Yi told the ghost doctor what his master Tai Chizi had explained to him.
The ghost doctor immediately understood the meaning of this.
"Childe, what should we do with this drama after we kill the other ninth-rate door masters?" Then the ghost doctor asked.
"Didn't that guy say that he was from Zongzheng Temple, in that case, we don't need to make a move on him." Li Yi said after thinking for a moment.
"Just let him go so easily? Childe, don't forget, Zongzheng Temple is not a good thing, if it weren't for their ambition, it wouldn't have caused the people of Jinling City to be unlucky. The ghost doctor said with some indignation.
Ever since the ghost doctor learned that Emperor Shengheng had colluded with the grassland army to attack Jinling City in order to centralize power, he hated the imperial court and Zongzheng Temple.
Although Zongzheng Temple seems to be the righteous side on the surface, if it weren't for the fact that the Zongzheng Temple gang constantly challenged the authority of Emperor Shengheng for their own power, the two sides would not have made such a fuss.
Therefore, Emperor Shengheng is hateful, but the people of Zongzheng Temple are not good birds.
"Having said that, have you ever thought about what will happen when the grassland army attacks if the strength of Zongzheng Temple is weakened now?" Li Yi calmly looked at the ghost doctor and asked.
When the ghost doctor heard this, he was stunned on the spot and didn't know how to answer.
"My junior brother is right, no matter how evil Zongzheng Temple is, we can't take action against it, because now they are tied together by the people of the whole city." Mu Junhe also spoke.
"I also know, it's just that I don't feel happy in my heart, and I think that my ghost doctor has killed a lot of people in his life, and he is also a ruthless person, but I just can't see powerful people mutilating those defenseless innocent people for their own interests." The ghost doctor said this sentence with three points of anger, three points of helplessness and three points of sadness.
Li Yi knew that the reason why he was like this was entirely because his eldest brother's family was unarmed and innocent.
He's touching the scene now.
"Ghost doctor, let's look at it, although we can do something to add some trouble to the old Jin King or Zongzheng Temple, but this is just a symptom rather than a cure." Mu Junhe continued to speak.
"Ghost doctor, my senior brother is right, in the current situation, the strength of the three of us is really very limited, even if we want to fight for the people of Jinling City to have a chance to live, it is difficult to do it, after all, this catastrophe in Jinling City was carefully planned by Emperor Shengheng." Li Yi said bitterly.
However, although it is said that most of the officials and merchants in Jinling City are the forces of the imperial court and Zongzheng Temple, even if these people are killed, they are to blame.
But the rest of the people in the city were innocent. But Li Yi also knew that Emperor Shengheng could use the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in the three county cities of Biansai as bargaining chips in exchange for this time the grass army attacked Jinling City.
One can imagine how determined Emperor Shengheng was this time. Therefore, Li Yi and Mu Junhe knew very well from the beginning that this time the crisis in Jinling City could not be passed so easily, and as for whether Jinling City would be breached, it depended on the determination of the people in Zongzheng Temple.
In fact, if Li Yi had an army in his hands, the number of people did not need to be large, as long as there were 500 people as at the beginning, he would not choose to sit idly by.
It's a pity that there are only three of them now, and even if you add the upcoming Jingzi Zheng and others, the number will not exceed thirty.
So now he has the intention to kill the thief but can't do anything about it. In fact, it is not that he has done nothing, just he brought the city guard camp and many people of Sizhou County to Jinling City, which is a great help to Jinling City.
These people are all living forces. As long as the grassland army attacks Jinling City, these people from Sizhou County will inevitably join the ranks of defending the city.
As for how much of a role they can play, that's out of his mind. And deep in Li Yi's heart, he also has a more urgent desire to form his own army.
"If you want to protect more people in this troubled world, you must have enough strength." Li Yi thought secretly.
At this time, the three of them walked while talking, and they had already come to the door of the house where Jiang Fengnian, the owner of the beggar gate, was.
At this time, the house was very lively. From time to time, there was a burst of noise and cheers in the room.
"The master of the door, this time we are a beggar!" A gruff voice suppressed the noise and the clarity of the voice came out.
"Yes, my brothers outside just now reported that we have robbed six giants in the city." Another, relatively shrill voice followed.
"That's right, that's right, I just came back from one of them, and you didn't know that the belongings found by the brothers at the scene were enough to load more than twenty carts." A pockmarked beggar said happily as he gestured.
"And the brothers on the scene are all meat, don't you say that the women of these rich businessmen and giants are Shui Ling, and even the maids in the house are more attractive than ordinary women." The pockmarked-faced beggar continued with a wicked smile on his face.
"Oh? Ding Mazi, are you also happy? The shrill voice chuckled.
"Humph! Isn't this nonsense you're asking, can Lao Tzu not be upset with such a good opportunity! Let me tell you, the one I was playing was the young lady of the Sun Mansion, hey, Yoyo, that little face of the water spirit, and the slender waist that I held were just ecstatic! The beggar known as Ding Mazi described obscenely to the people around him.
"Fuck me down, don't you see that the door master is busy!" Just as these people were about to continue, a deep voice immediately rebuked angrily.
When everyone heard this, they were all silent.
"Forget it, don't let them be so restrained, and let them listen to it, so that they know that as long as they are obedient, it will not be beneficial to them." At this time, a slightly old voice sounded slowly.
Although his tone was flat like a pool of water, his words were like a bonfire that ignited all the emotions of everyone.
"Door Master, when will it be our turn to act?" As soon as Jiang Fengnian's words were finished, someone in the room asked impatiently.
"That's right, the other brothers of the master of the door are gold, silver, treasures and beautiful women outside, which really makes us look hot!"
"That's right, the brothers under my command are no worse than those guys outside, or you can arrange for us to go out next!" A hoarse voice suddenly sounded.
"Are we worse than you because of you?"
"You're just a fucking good calculation, everything has to come first, why should you?"
“······” Originally, after Jiang Fengnian spoke, the scene fell into a moment of silence. But with Jiang Fengnian's encouragement, these guys at the scene became more and more excited, and they even fought over who could be the next person to go out and rob the rich businessmen.
And looking at the situation where the scene is full of gunpowder, these guys are likely to fight in the next second.
"Shut up!" Suddenly, a bamboo pole was smashed to the ground by Jiang Fengnian hatefully. Suddenly, everyone heard a clattering sound of cracking floor tiles.
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and then turned their heads to find that their door master, Jiang Fengnian, was staring at them with those eagle-like eyes.
So they closed their mouths one after another, and then looked embarrassed.
"Look at your ignorant and greedy appearance, do you really think it's so easy to rob those rich merchants?" Jiang Fengnian had already completely made a face at this time, and then said with a disdainful face.
"You just saw the brothers outside eating and drinking spicy food, but you didn't see the brothers outside fighting for their lives at all, and everything they got was killed by themselves with long knives." Jiang Fengnian continued to speak.
The crowd bowed their heads under his reprimand.
"But since you all want to go out and rob those rich merchants and giants, then I will make it clear to you in advance, once the city guard camp or the Yaowu army is killed, you must hurry up and escape, otherwise once you are caught, even if I want to save you, I will not be saved." Jiang Fengnian stood in the middle of the room and looked at everyone and said.
"Thank you for your advice!" The others in the room immediately thanked Jiang Fengnian in unison.
"You are no longer saved." Just when everyone was excited and ready to go, suddenly a voice came from outside the window.
