Accepting Xu Ci is only the first step of Cheng Shui.

She knows that next Shilong Town will be robbed, Zengcheng will be breached, this is a good opportunity, take advantage of no one to take care of it, control Shilong Town, and use it as a stronghold, so as to recruit troops.

Shilong Town said that it is not big or small, it is located in the westernmost part of Zengcheng, although there is a city wall and a small team of officers and soldiers to protect the city, but there is no official office. Most of the merchants in the town are merchants, and the largest is the Feng family. Li Benqi told her that the Feng family should have more than 1,000 guards.

At that time, she was still very surprised how this dynasty could tolerate more individual private soldiers than the officers and soldiers guarding the city.

Li Benqi explained that although the government does not allow it, Shilong Town is special and belongs to the edge of the jurisdiction, acting as a material turning point between the north and the south. The Feng family's escort team is actually in the name of a caravan, and if you do a good job up and down, you can deal with it.

Therefore, if Shilong Town can be taken, in this era of ill-informed information, Cheng Shui will be sure to create a paradise.

Time is so urgent, Cheng Shui naturally didn't want to rest anymore, and gathered everyone and said that he wanted to discuss the affairs in the hall.

But before everyone arrived, I saw an old man walking into the hall angrily, and he stared at him with a beard: "Don't you want to live?" Don't rest well, run around or something! ”

"Old fairy, what do you mean by that?" Cheng Guan was the first to arrive, and was talking to Xu Ci, and was busy asking.

Li Sandao and Li Fan, who had just entered the door, couldn't help but look at the old immortals.

"Oh, don't call me that, you said call me an old naughty boy." The old urchin said unhappily.

"If this girl doesn't rest well, she'll die."

Cheng Shui ignored everyone's gaze and said calmly: "Will you die now?" ”

"Hmm...... No. ”

"Will you die tomorrow?"

“...... Nor will it. The old urchin struggled, "It will probably be a few years before he dies." ”

Everyone: "......"

"In a few years, if you don't die of illness, you should die of old age." Cheng Shui was speechless, then remembered something again, and said to Cheng Guan: "Although I don't know how this old urchin's medical skills are, but since I am here, I will take it to the old village chief to see." ”

Since the old village chief Cheng handed over the position of head of the family to Cheng Shui, he has been in an old state visible to the naked eye, and his spirit has been poor, and he has been lingering on the sickbed recently.

"No, no, no, I won't." The old naughty boy didn't know why, and made a fuss, "Apprentice, good apprentice, come on, someone is bullying me!" ”

I saw a young man walk in when he heard this, it was Pei Xingze, he stood behind the old naughty boy with an expressionless face, and grabbed his collar. "Excuse me the head of the Li family, junior Pei Xingze. Now, if we don't need to see a doctor, we'll leave first. ”

Hearing this, the old naughty boy's expression changed, and he seemed to be unwilling, but his eyes suddenly moved to Cheng Shui, and he said angrily: "Let's go, let's go." ”

"Wait."

Cheng Shui suddenly stopped with a voice, and she narrowed her eyes. Why is Pei Xingze here, he is the apprentice of the old immortal.

"The visitor is a guest, and I haven't entertained you well, so let's stay longer." She changed her mind, forcefully left the two of them, and signaled to Xu Ci.

The old urchin became even more angry when he heard this, and kept making noise. Pei Xingze dragged the person out without changing his face and followed Xu Ci away.

Cheng Guan hesitated, but still stayed where he was, thinking that since the old immortal couldn't leave, it wouldn't be too late to find him later.

Finally, everyone in the Li family arrived.

Cheng Shui looked around and asked, "Li Sandao, how many people are in the Li family now?" How many people are there in Lijiazhai? ”

"Homecoming, counting the brothers who are wandering outside, the Li family has a total of 234 brothers, and now there are 178 in the village."

"But can you punch and kick?"

"This ......" Li Sandao glanced at Li Fan.

Cheng Shui sneered: "Are you eating the food of Shopkeeper Li?" ”

These words were unceremonious, and everyone present trembled. Li Benqi was also shaking beside him, and he had to be present at all Li family meetings.

Li Sandao's brain was stunned, and he didn't react yet.

Li Fan hurriedly surrendered his hand: "The head of the family is angry, Li Sandao probably doesn't understand what kind of fists and feet the head of the family is talking about." ”

Li Sandao reacted at this time, and his head was sweating, and seeing that Cheng Shui was still looking at him coldly, he hurriedly spoke: "Ordinary brother, just learn some physical fitness methods with me, if this is the case, the Li family, including the shopkeeper Li, will know some." But another kind of fist and foot kung fu needs to be practiced by brothers who are armed with weapons, and there are less than 50 people in the family. ”

After he finished speaking, he didn't dare to get up, but he still hunched his waist, and this kind of appearance was not much better for the old lady Li before.

Cheng Shui said lightly: "Sit." ”

"I have a command. Now there is a sudden change, and there is something to do. For everyone's sake, call all the brothers back to practice martial arts and fists and feet to protect themselves. As soon as these words came out, one of them noticed that something was wrong.

Cheng Shu drank water silently and just listened.

"In addition, I want to expand the staff."

If the previous order was excusable, this order Li Fan and Li Sandao were a little confused.

The two didn't dare to speak, and looked at Zhao Yannian at the end.

Zhao Yannian......

He had no choice but to speak: "The head of the family, now that there is a continuous drought, will it be too burdensome to rashly solicit it?" ”

"Are you reluctant to give up food?"

Cheng Shui's momentum today was quite strong, and Zhao Yannian didn't dare to look at it directly, and said in a low voice: "Be careful to sail the ship of ten thousand years." The homeless people are everywhere, and they are even more taboo to show their wealth. "It's not that I'm afraid of revealing wealth, it's that I'm afraid of revealing grain.

"Everything has to be lifed, and if you don't prepare now, what if you come to the door of the homeless people in the future." Cheng Shui said lightly.

Seeing that everyone was defeated, Cheng Shui's order was naturally carried out.

Cheng Shu came out of the hall and frowned as he walked around. He found today that Cheng Shui's attitude was even tougher and more majestic. If he used to speak to the Li family with deliberation, now it is the order of the superior to his subordinates.

He didn't know if this change was good or bad, so he could only tell his father before making a judgment.

"What did you say?"

Hearing Cheng Guan say about the changes in Cheng Shui, Old Man Cheng was also surprised, and he coughed and gasped twice.

"What's going on lately?"

Cheng Guan thought for a while and said, "Cheng's second daughter-in-law, Liu, was injured by the homeless and died. That should be all there is to it. ”

Old Man Cheng lay on the sickbed, trembling and picked up the key hanging around his neck. "You go...... Bring that thing, bring it. ”

Cheng Shu hurriedly took it, and walked to the bookcase in front of the bed under the gaze of Old Man Cheng, he raised his hand to take off a wooden box, turned to the old man, and opened it in front of him.

I saw that in the huge box, there was only one sheepskin.

Cheng Shu hurriedly took it out and handed it to Old Man Cheng, who took it, but did not open it, he rubbed it, and there seemed to be remembrance in his eyes.

After a long time, he said, "You go, give this to Cheng Yatou,"

Cheng Shu stretched out his hand and was about to take it, but he suddenly repented, "Forget it, you still go and bring someone, and I will give it to her personally." ”
