060, the number is wrong (below)
Tian Xiao pointed to himself, and then pointed to Bai Xihong and said: "Although the old man is not a master, but after all, he practiced martial arts back then, and he was born and died on the battlefield. And Bai Xihong is the only monk in the village, and with the help of the rest of the masters, the two of us can also lead a team of clansmen to guard a position. ”
Bai Xiying was surprised: "Is my Hong'er going to fight too?"
Tian Xiao finally couldn't help but reprimand angrily: "Look at this little gentleman, who is not related to Baixi Village, but he can stand up to help." As a member of the clan, the son of the patriarch, and the only monk in the village, Bai Xihong should stand up when the clansmen all took up arms. If it weren't for that, would he still have the face to stay in Baixi Village? Then he should be expelled from the village now, Baixi Village does not need and cannot tolerate this kind of coward!"
These words angered Bai Xihong, and the young man got up and stomped his feet and said, "Who do you say is a coward?"
Huwa interjected: "Bai Xihong, if you fight hard to protect the village, of course you are not a coward. ...... But I listened to the patriarch, and it seems that I didn't plan to let you fight. ”
Bai Xihong gritted her teeth and said, "Of course I will fight." ”
Huwa said, "You don't have to worry too much, if the position you are guarding encounters a strong enemy, others will immediately rush over to help." ...... The village will not move, and we don't know from which direction the other side will attack, so every direction must be on guard, so there must be these people. ”
Bai Xiying stretched out her hand to wipe the sweat on her forehead and said, "Since there are already three people, Master Gonggong, Tian Xiao, and my Hong'er, we still need to ask four more masters to help." ...... Then it's four magic weapons, how can you say five just now?"
Tian Xiao was already angry, pointed at the tiger baby, and scolded Bai Xiying again: "Are you blind? And this little gentleman, of course you want to give the same reward!"
Huwa suddenly smiled and nodded, "What Uncle Xiao said is that the Baixi Patriarch. You really did count wrong, didn't you take me as a human being? Whether I need your reward or not is my own business, and how you should count is your business. ”
......
After Bai Xiying's father and son left, Huwa and Tian Xiao did not rest immediately, and the two chatted for a long time that night. Huwa is very serious in everything he does, so serious that he doesn't have to be deliberately serious, he is so naturally focused.
This was the first thing he encountered after leaving the wilderness and entering Ba Yuan, not only to help, but also to find out the reasons for it. It's for what happens. What kind of people are they, and what kind of goals and desires do they participate in?
Huwa asked about the situation of the rogue again. In the hinterland of the Xiangmuro country, the so-called rogues have long been extinct in recent decades. The tragedy that occurred in the summer of three years ago and the autumn of two years ago may sound so unreal to the people in this area, like a legend from a very distant time and a distant place, how could it happen to them?
When the rogues committed the second crime, more than 300 people in that remote village were slaughtered, leaving nothing alive, and no one knew where they came from, what they looked like, and what they had robbed. The first time they committed the crime, they attacked only three families in a certain village. All three families were killed. The courtyard of the house was destroyed by fire, and no one knows why.
At that time, the rogues came so suddenly, no one expected in advance, when they rushed into the village with knives and guns. The other villagers didn't even dare to come out of their homes. According to eyewitnesses hiding behind the walls of their homes, the men were masked, and they didn't know what the road looked like, but they were all vigorous and extraordinary.
Those three families were three brothers who had their own families. Among them was also a monk of the Three Realms. However, there are obviously those who have cultivated to a higher level among the rogues, and they will win by fighting the law. Some witnesses saw the glow of the magic weapon flying into the air and circling above the courtyard wall.
The two tragedies were separated by more than a year, and neither left any clues afterwards. Although both Gaocheng and Feihong City had sent people to investigate, there was no result. After the first tragedy, some people suspected that it was a vendetta, and it was only after the second tragedy that people realized that there was a murderous gang of gangsters in the area. But there are also those who believe that these are fundamentally two incidents, because the situation is completely different.
Now that two years have passed, and there are no more rogues to be seen, and many people think that they have long since gone away, otherwise how could they not be found? This is also Huwa's question, he asked Tian Xiaodao: "The first tragedy, there are witnesses, how many are there to be Liukou?"
Tian Xiao: "It is said that there are about fifty people, all of whom are masked. ”
Huwa: "The second tragedy and the first tragedy, are they the same group of people?"
Tian Xiao spread his hands and said: "You ask me, who am I going to ask?" At that time, there was not a single living mouth, some people thought it was the same group, and some people thought it was not. ”
In fact, Huwa may not want to ask Tian Xiao, he used to communicate with the mountain god in the past, and he always asks questions and then lets the mountain god answer. But Tian Xiao is not a mountain god, and the process of the tiger baby's question is also thinking by herself.
He muttered again: "Slaughtering the entire village overnight, and not a single person escaped, it is not like a few murderers. How could it be possible for two groups of gangsters with a large number of people to exist in such a short period of time in the same peaceful and peaceful place? But if it was the same group of people who did it, why did they attack only three families the first time and slaughter the entire village the second time?"
Tian Xiao frowned and said, "Maybe it's because the village was bigger than the first time, not much smaller than our Baixi Village, and it is said that they didn't have any casualties." The second time the village was very small, with only more than 300 people, and probably all the tribesmen rose up to resist, and the rogues suffered casualties, so they were annoyed and angry. ”
Huwa: "Since you are a rogue, why haven't you gone far after a year? And the time to commit the crime is inevitably too long." They are all masked, just afraid of being recognized!"
Tian Xiao nodded and said, "Yes, if you are not afraid of being recognized, why should you cover your face?" Actually, I think so too." ”
Huwa continued: "More than fifty people, after doing such a bloody case, no matter how they hide afterwards, it is impossible not to leave any clues, unless they can fly." "This is obviously an impossible assumption, could it be that these more than fifty rogues are at least the masters of the Six Realms with flying artifacts? If this is the case, they don't have to be rogues, they can directly capture the national capital.
Tian Xiao: "That's the most surprising part. It is said that the lord of the castle also asked the capital for help, and the king sent a master to fly to the sky and search the surrounding mountains, but found no hiding rogues. ”
Huwa: "If it's only one or two masters, it's reasonable, but fifty rogues, even if they hide in the mountains, they can't leave any traces, so there is only one possibility." ”
Tian Xiao leaned over and said, "What is possible?"
Tiger Baby: "They didn't hide at all, they were locals!"
Although it is the first time for the tiger baby to walk out of the wilderness, Li Qingshui is the master of Baguo Li back then. Many of the worldly events that the mountain god introduced to him were various cases. The situation of the rogue here is very strange, and all other possibilities are excluded, so the situation that seems to be the most unlikely should be the truth.
Tian Xiao gasped and lowered his voice: "To be honest, my old man was so suspicious back then, but I really can't believe it, I just think that I am thinking nonsense! With more than fifty murderers with extraordinary skills, which village has such strength?"
If the so-called rogues are the locals, where do they come from? Could it be that there are several strongmen in each village, secretly colluding together, and there are also people in the middle to command, and they meet at an appointed time to gather and commit murder. Afterwards, they dispersed, took off their disguises, restored their original colors, and returned to their respective villages. If this is the case, it may explain why the rogue is not traceable. ”
Tiger Baby: "This is also a possibility. ”
Tian Xiao's expression changed, and he suddenly said: "Little sir, I know that you have strong mana, can you help the old man do one thing for me?"
Tiger Baby: "Please speak." ”
Tian Xiao: "When the rogue attacked, if you try to give birth to one or more of them, you can eradicate them all as long as you take off your mask to find out their identity and interrogate their accomplices. If you really can't catch the living, it's okay to leave the corpse, and if it's really a local, it's also a clue to pursue. ”
Huwa: "If it's really a local, it's not that there are no clues. Someone had seen a master of fighting techniques among the Liukou, and his methods were at least superior to that of the Three Realms cultivator who had been killed. Among the two nearby cities, although there are not very few monks above the three realms, there are not too many. And those whose whereabouts are unknown at that time are extremely suspicious. ”
Tian Xiao: "But suspicion does not mean that there is evidence, so far, no one who can identify them has survived. Anyone who holds such a status is of such a high rank in the city that he cannot be accused of it by mere suspicion. Moreover, the murderers are all locals, so they can find accomplices to confess and cover up their whereabouts. ...... Now, little sir, I hope that this rogue will come. ”
Tiger Baby: "Oh, why do you think that?"
Tian Xiao: "I had doubts at the beginning, but I didn't even dare to believe it, I just thought it was a blind thought, but you woke me up again today." If there really is such a gang of strongmen lurking in the local area, and their true faces are not known to the public, how dangerous is this? Even if they do not come to ransack Baixi Village today, they will still cause a tragedy in the future, and they should take this opportunity to find out the identities of these people and completely eradicate them!"
Huwa nodded and said, "You are not only thinking about Baixi Village, but also for the safety of all the villages in the vicinity. But there is a question, what if those rogues don't come? Even if we invite experts to help, those people can't stay in Baixi Village forever, if the rogues don't come next month, will the reward be paid back and the people will be kept?"
Tian Xiao asked rhetorically: "Didn't you say it yourself, did the Liukou collude with the people of the Mountain Paste Clan, and they will come to ransack Baixi Village next month?"
Huwa smiled bitterly, in fact, he was just pulling poop in the bushes when he found two pig-headed people spying on Baixi Village from a high place, and heard a conversation, which mentioned "leather armor people with knives and guns", and also mentioned that he would come to Baixi Village next month to grab things, so he deduced these things, but he didn't expect that the deeper the situation became, the more complicated it became.
