The market outside the southeast city is generally set up in the middle of the surrounding ethnic groups, which is convenient for the gathering of people and goods in the surrounding area.

Kejiazhai is only ten miles away from this bazaar.

Hua Disfigured decided to go to Kejiazhai after having lunch in the bazaar, but before he entered the bazaar, he was discovered by Na Wei Wuxie and stared at Hua Disfigured viciously.

Hua Wurong ignored him directly, walked into the carriage and horse shop, and didn't sit for long before Qi Tan came with the two followers.

For Zitan's arrival, Hua Disfigured was not surprised.

As if meeting an old acquaintance, Hua Rongrong greeted him warmly and invited him to take a seat.

Looking at the four plates of dishes and three bowls of rice on the table, Qi Tan frowned, "Little brother, you haven't eaten for a few days?"

Hua Yanrong has been feeding on dry food for the past few days, and a bird has faded out of her mouth.

"Six or seven days. Hua said lightly.

Qi Tan sneered: "Didn't you go to Kejiazhai to receive the goods?

The lie was exposed, and Hua Fa did not blush, and said with a smile: "I got up in the next moment, went into the mountains and forests, and collected some elixirs." Qi Gongzi, you are ......"

Qi Tan's face changed, his eyes were bright, and he said in a deep voice: "Do you know Lao Tzu's surname Qi?"

"Lao Tzu also knows that you are the son of the bandit leader at the mouth of the Shuangxiakou. ”

For Qi Tan's unkind words, Hua Yanrong took the time to pay tribute, and Qi Tan's fierce questioning did not take it to heart.

Hua said with a disfigured face, her eyes swept to the man called "Wu Ye", the man seemed to think of something, and asked, "That day, you ......"

Hua Rong smiled "hehe", "I heard the conversation between you and those two robber brothers, and I am by your side." ”

"Impossible!"

The "Wu Ye" face changed greatly, and shouted: "I have checked, and there is no one within the surrounding twenty zhang. ”

"My son-in-law understands the formation, have you forgotten?"

Hua Misrong smiled, "Why should I buy spirit stones? Isn't it because Qin Xu and Gongzi Qin of my Qin Mansion are a formation mage?"

And I'm a smarter person, standing next to him and looking at it a few more times, I remember a little bit. ”

"You...... Hiding in the formation?" "Wu Ye" stared at Hua in disbelief.

Zitan spoke up to stop the pointless conversation.

He stared at Hua and said lightly: "Now, the person who kidnapped Qin Xu has offered a price to redeem his life with five hundred thousand taels of silver. ”

Facing Qi Tan's gaze, Hua Yanrong did not show weakness, "You want to say that this kidnapping case was not done by your Shuangxia mouth?"

"Master Wu" changed his face and shouted: "You are a yellow-mouthed child, you dare to be so ...... to the young master."

Before the word "wanton" of the "fifth master" could be spoken, suddenly an invisible pressure descended out of thin air, tightly restraining his body.

Frightened, "Wu Ye" immediately tried to break free.

But the more you struggle, the stronger the power of that restraint becomes, which is the function of the "field" that only martial artists in the martial arts realm can perform.

Qi Tan was also very surprised, and hurriedly took a few steps back, away from the wine table.

"Wu Ye" is obviously also a master of the martial arts realm, and he instinctively used his own "field".

As a result, as soon as the "field" of the two people touched slightly, the "field" of "Wu Ye" immediately showed signs of collapse and crushing.

The "field" of the two is not at the same level at all.

Just when the "field" of "Wu Ye" was about to collapse and retreat, the surrounding air suddenly flowed, and the powerful restraining force suddenly disappeared out of thin air.

And "Wu Ye" had a flushed old face, and he fell to the ground, panting.

Hua lost the "field" and ate her meal very casually, as if nothing had happened just now.

After half a ring, Qi Tancai restrained his arrogance, walked to the table, felt a little jealous in his heart, and said with a sigh: "Zhang Gongzi, it's really ...... It's hidden!"

Hua lost his face and couldn't see through the realm of the three of them, but after the injured meridians recovered, his strength increased greatly.

With a powerful divine sense far beyond the martial arts realm, Fang Cai exerted his own "field" and directly crushed the "Wu Ye", taking the lead and gaining the upper hand.

This is just a trick taken by Hua Yinrong, if you really want to hand it over with real guns and swords, who is Hua Yinrong's opponent in the martial arts realm?

However, with his current combat strength, even if he can't fight, it shouldn't be a problem to escape.

After showing his strength, Hua was not strong and gave up.

Pointing to the table, Hua Rongrong let Qi Tan sit down, and asked, "These kidnapping cases, why do you say that you didn't do it at Shuangxiakou?"

Qi Tan sat cautiously at the table, and when he saw that Hua was disfigured and asked, he didn't answer immediately, but asked rhetorically: "Does Zhang Gongzi know why we can collect past fees at the mouth of the Shuangxia and be allowed by the government?"

Didn't you say that Qi Mazi reached an agreement with the county guard?

Could there be something else going on here?

Hua stared at Qi Tan and didn't make a sound.

Qi Tan replied to himself: "We have indeed obtained the consent of the county guard to collect fees at the mouth of the two gorges, but you may not know that seventy percent of these fees are to be returned to the county guard. ”

Damn! This county guard is really a talent!

Since I can't destroy you, I'll make reasonable use of you.

Aren't you going to block the road and rob at the mouth of the Twin Gorges?

I'll let you rob it!

But it has to be done in a different way, which is in the form of a tax rate.

Although this tax rate is low, it is better because there are many goods coming and going, and it is a long-term policy, and it is legal, who wouldn't want it?

Turning the robbers into their own tax collection team is a helpless move by the county guard, but it can also be described as a clever talent!

Hua lost his face and had to admire in his heart.

No wonder Gui Hangyuan did not forget to say the word "benevolence" when he mentioned Qi Mazi.

The fact that a bandit can force a feudal official to finally compromise is enough to show his ability.

Qi Tan continued: "The three people who disappeared one after another were all in the vicinity of Kejiazhai, and I suspect that these people are hiding in the mountains and forests near Kejiazhai. ”

"Why do you think so?" asked Hua Misrong.

Qi Tan said his reasons, "Since the culprits of these disappearance cases are all pointed to my Shuangxiakou, the hostages naturally cannot be held in Southeast County.

If you are imprisoned in the castles of various ethnic groups outside the city, it is inevitable that the news will leak, and the best way is to hide in the mountains and forests. ”

This is an explanation.

Hua Disfigurement is to ensure that Qin Xu is alive, otherwise, the next scene will not be able to be sung.

After thinking about it, Hua asked with a blank face, "How can you be sure that the kidnappers will not kill people?"

Qi Tan tapped his fingers on the table and accentuated his tone, "Since it's murder, why do you want to say ransom?"

Hua disagrees with this.

It's like if you're not a kidnapper, how do you understand the kidnapper's mind.

Hua was disfigured and had no choice but to ask Qi Tan directly, "Next, how will you move?"

Qi Tan leaned over to Hua Yanrong's side, and lowered his voice, "My father has spread the word to me, and tomorrow, a large number of people will come to my Shuangxia Pass."

When the time comes, I will forcibly order a dozen nearby castles or clans to open their gates and let us search. The missing person vows to see people in life and corpses in death. ”

In the end, Qi Tan's eyes were already fierce.

A bandit is a bandit, and he acts so domineering and resolutely.

This kid is trying to startle the kidnappers and make them panic and deal with the situation.

Hua Yanrong figured all this, immediately put his mind at ease, and said with a smile: "Qi Gongzi is really neat. ”

"I just want to find out the real culprit sooner. ”

Qi Tan's voice exuded a kind of confidence, "I want to wash away the innocence of the Shuangxia Mouth, the key is whether I can find some pills or something from them." ”

Hua Yanrong heard it, the latter is the point, otherwise, Qi Mazi would not have directly increased the price of the goods flow at Shuangxiakou.

It seems that Qi Mazi attaches great importance to the assessment of the outer disciples of the two super sects this time.

Hua Wurong thought that the dozen or so castles around him were not far apart, and at his own speed, from west to east, in a day or two, he could also search the surrounding mountains and forests for dozens of miles.

After thinking about it, Hua Disfigured said what she thought.

Qi Tan listened and was very happy.

The strength that Hua Lost showed just now had already convinced the three of them, and now that he heard that Hua Lost was going to help, he was naturally happy.

Qi Tan took out a communication talisman and handed it to Hua Disfigure, "Although this thing is not a thousand-mile talisman, it is still possible to transmit a message for hundreds of miles around."

If Zhang Gongzi finds out, he can tell me as soon as possible, and we will arrive immediately. ”

Hua accepted it unceremoniously, stuffed it directly into her arms, beckoned Xiao Er to settle the account, and left directly.

It was only at this time that "Wu Ye", who had been standing behind Qi Tan, lowered his head and did not dare to squeak anymore, dared to raise his head and look at the back of Hua Disfigured and far away, with complicated expressions.

"Isn't it awesome at leading people?"

Qi Tan stood up, glanced at his men, and walked out of the carriage shop.

Two attendants hurriedly followed.

"Wu Ye" accompanied the smiling face and said: "The young master often said that there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world, Wu Fu understands it today." ”

"Does he really have the strength of the Martial Master Realm?" Qi Tan suddenly asked.

Wu Fu thought for a moment, his face was solemn, "Such a powerful 'field', even the masters of the late stage of the Martial Arts Realm can't match it! ”

Qi Tan nodded thoughtfully, and led the two of them towards the outside of the bazaar.

The road to Shuangxiakou is located in the southwest direction of Kejiazhai, about 50 miles.

Before coming here, Hua Yinrong had seen it clearly on the map in the carriage and horse shop, and silently remembered that as soon as he came out of the market at this time, Hua Yinrong went straight to the avenue at the mouth of the Shuangxia.

After traveling less than ten miles, Hua lost his face and saw that on the plain in the distance, a team of war horses galloped on the wide road, raising dust in the sky.

The sound of iron hooves, the war horse is getting closer and closer.

Hua was disfigured and saw that there were as many as 1,000 people in this team of war horses, and they were all tall and mighty, and the fire-maned demon horses with full foot strength were all tall and powerful, and they were running up, and their flying manes were like erupting flames, which were dazzling.

This is what Liu Tan said about the large number of people from the mouth of the Shuangxia, and they are really strong, open-chested, and full of gangsterism.

When the group passed by Hua Disfigure, several of them stared at him viciously.

Hua couldn't help but sigh, the bandits came out of the mountain in a grand manner, if it was spread to the city, the county keeper didn't know what he would think.

Hua Huanrong can imagine that there will be more than a dozen castles and ethnic groups around Kejiazhai next, and there will be a scene of chickens flying and dogs jumping.
