Chapter 4 They Are All Little People, What Big Names to Use (Part I)

It's all small people, what big names to use (above)

At this time, it was already dark, and the lord of the Mengzhai village glanced around at everyone, and the eyes under the mask of the demon's fangs shone dangerously. Everyone looked at the demon mask that glowed with cold light under the torches, and they didn't know what method this group of water thieves would use to torture them, whether they would be tortured?

What everyone didn't expect was that the owner of the Mengzhai village did not force them, but smiled and let his little brother escort them down.

These men were locked up together with the old and weak women and children who had been screened out before.

Saying that it is closed, in fact, it is just to circle them and prevent them from running. A group of water thieves, where did they have the energy to build a prison, but they just set aside a vacant space, which was simply fenced off, and Xu Changan and them were locked in like captive domestic animals. Not far from them was a row of latrines, and ravines led the dung down the hill from not far from them.

The whole fence was randomly covered with a layer of dry weeds, and there was a stench not far away, and the people who were imprisoned together complained one after another, but they were scolded twice by the water thieves, and they did not dare to speak.

Xu Changan picked up a weed casually, pillowed his head with his hands, and looked up at the starry sky.

He slept in the Hou Mansion in Chang'an, and he slept a lot in the open, not to mention that there was a pile of grass spread on the ground in this place, even if he didn't, he could be at peace with what he encountered.

Now the mountains are all yellowish, the weather is cooler, and Jingmen Prefecture is not as humid as Chang'an, every night, you can look up at the stars, blow the evening breeze, and really respond to the four words of high autumn and cool.

If there is no toilet nearby.

These people were reprimanded by the water thieves, and they suddenly did not dare to speak, but settled down, and each found a place with thick dry grass to lie down.

Xu Changan looked at these people and smiled, then looked up at the stars in the sky.

The purpose of the water thieves is obvious, and without concealment, they directly said that they were looking for a person surnamed Sui, and Sui traveled far away. Moreover, the water thieves made a living by licking blood on the head of the knife, but they did not let everyone take out the money on their bodies. There is no way that the water thieves can make such a lowly mistake, and then there is only one result, they are doing things for someone, and the man is paying a lot of money to prevent them from touching the people.

Who would do that?

Xu Changan sighed, and he already had a general direction in his heart.

He is not a hairy boy who has just come out of Weicheng, he has seen the bloody rain and bloody wind of no sword above the court, and he thinks about the problem more comprehensively than before.

What can make people not love the wealth in front of them is only greater wealth.

The only thing that can make the water pirates blind to the wealth in front of them is greater force than the water pirates.

Xu Changan has been paying attention to these water thieves all the way today, and found that they have a tacit understanding, which can only be formed for a long time, and the mountains and mountains here are dangerous, he really can't imagine that a cultivator can threaten this group of water thieves.

Not much else, at least the strength must be similar to his own, and he can even reach the Huixi realm before he can easily go up the mountain.

Xu Changan's eyes narrowed as he looked at the starry sky.

Although he didn't know who the cultivator behind this was, he could at least judge that it was not a person from the imperial court, the rivers and lakes of the imperial court had always been unrelated, and this group of water thieves usually collected monthly money and would not make waves on the Jingmen River, so the imperial court would turn a blind eye.

Obviously, it won't be a member of the Six Great Sects, if it were, they would definitely tie up this water thief and throw it outside the state capital of Jingmen Prefecture, and then go to find what they wanted.

Then the identity of these people can also be roughly judged.

Either they are people of the Demon Dao, or they are some loose cultivators.

This Jingmen Prefecture is the hermitage of the Qinglian Sword Sect, and the Demon Dao naturally doesn't dare to be too rampant, otherwise it will be thousands of times more difficult for them. As for loose cultivation or small sects, it is even more reasonable, no one dares to offend, and if they want benefits, they naturally have to do it quietly.

Xu Changan sighed, it seems that he has to deal with this matter carefully.

......

After the lord of the village finished speaking, he turned to the back of the hall.

He lowered his head, looking very respectful to the man in front of him with the green oni fanged mask.

"My lord, why don't you search for them, and let them go so easily tonight?"

The man with the green oni fanged mask coughed slightly, his voice a little tired.

"You've already said your purpose, instead of looking for them one by one, it's better to see if they have escaped, and whoever escapes is whoever they are!"

As soon as you listen to this voice, you can know that the owner of the voice is at least at the age of knowing the destiny of heaven, and according to the observation of the lord of Mengzhai, this old thing will definitely not be able to withstand his two punches.

However, the owner of Mengzhai only dared to think about these words in his heart, he didn't dare to say it, who let someone behind him?

Looking at the fluttering sword, there was nothing unusual, but with a slight swing of the long sword, the stone more than a person high turned into powder.

Thinking of this picture, the lord of Mengzhai swallowed his saliva.

He naturally knew what it meant, and this sword represented the identity of that person.

The man brought a small box, and when the lord opened it, it contained a small half-box of gold leaves, and some pearl necklaces and other things were laid on it.

The man didn't ask for anything else, and after asking Boss Meng for a mask, he brought this old thing out and let himself obey him in all his actions.

After the order was given, the man disappeared, and Boss Meng didn't know if the man had gone down the mountain, so he didn't dare to do anything with the old thing.

"But these people want to eat on my mountain, it's impossible for them to die, right? If you go too far and annoy Jingmen Prefecture, you and I won't be able to get any benefits!"

"Didn't the Lord pay you?" said the man with the green oni fanged mask with a hint of dissatisfaction.

"We said that thing was good before, but it was just at your disposal, and I didn't say that I would supply the food for these wasters!"

"Insatiable, I'll tell you when I find time!"

Boss Meng's eyes rolled, could it be that the adult is still on the mountain?

However, in order to find out the truth, he still mustered up the courage and said: "Give me a letter, the surplus grain on the mountain is only enough for our brothers, and I won't help you raise waste people for nothing!"

"In the past three days, you will give them some coarse chaff, and they will not die of hunger! Calculate it, then Sui Yuanxing will pass through this place during these three days, and after three days, no matter whether it is success or failure, adults will appear!"

When Boss Meng heard this, his waist straightened a little.

"Well, that's what you said, I'm just doing what I'm told!"

......

After the man with the green ghost fanged mask sent away the lord of Mengzhai, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he cautiously looked at no one around, and then walked out cautiously.

He stayed on this mountain for a few days, and also became familiar with the hidden posts where there were water thieves, he avoided all the hidden posts, groped all the way, I don't know how long, and finally met the man under a tree not far away.

"Your Excellency. ”

He stepped forward cautiously.

"Not today?"

The mysterious man asked lightly, although the moonlight was bright, but he stood in the shadows, and his face could not be seen clearly.

The man with the green oni fanged mask bowed his head.

"No, according to Sui Yuanxing's footsteps, he should have passed through this place in the next few days. ”

"And will he give it to his friend?"

The Blue Oni Fanged Mask Man shook his head.

"No, the little one has checked, he has very few trustworthy friends on weekdays. And when I came to Jingmen Prefecture, I wouldn't have any friends. ”

"Is that really exactly what you described?"

The masked man with the fangs of the green ghost hurriedly lowered his head and said, "I haven't seen anything in the world in my life, if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't believe it if I had been told that there was such a strange thing in the world." ”

The mystery man nodded, not saying anything more.

"Are these people still obedient?"

"The lord of Mengzhai seems to be a little dissatisfied, and asks me for the food expenses of these people who have been arrested, and asks for additional money!"

"It's only three days, and when I get it, everyone but us will die. When the time comes, I will give you the exercises you want, and from now on, the sky is high and the sea is wide, and everyone knows it!"

The body of the man in the green ghost fanged mask trembled slightly, first shocked, then happy.

"Thank you, big man, little ones should be remembered. ”

After the man in the green ghost fanged mask finished speaking, he left, and the corner of the mysterious man who stayed in place hooked up a disdainful smile: "A group of fools, still talk to me about conditions!"

......

Nothing was said all night.

The night was also extremely uneventful, no one ran away, only some complaints.

As soon as the morning dawned, let alone early, there was not even water for washing, which immediately caused a burst of complaints.

However, after being frightened by a few people with green oni fanged masks with whips, no one dared to say anything more.

At noon, a child about the age of an elephant came with two large wooden barrels. He seemed to be struggling, and with every step he took, he had to put the bucket down and stop for a while!

His face and body were dirty, his body was tattered, and he didn't have any mask on his face. The body bones are also very thin, the eye sockets are deep, and it seems that only the skeleton remains.

Finally, with great difficulty, he lifted the two buckets to the fence.

After thinking about it, he slapped his head, put the bucket down and ran into the distance, and after a while, he held a stack of green banana leaves in his hand.

The elephant-dancing child smiled with satisfaction, clapped his hands, and shouted into the fence, "It's time to eat!"

As he spoke, he picked up a wooden spoon and stirred it in the bucket, and suddenly a familiar and unpleasant smell reached everyone's nostrils.

"What are you guys here, can you eat it?" immediately some people were dissatisfied.

The child was not annoyed, looking at everyone, these people looked at this child in the year of the dancing elephant, and the surrounding water thieves did not mean to help, and suddenly they also had some confidence, and looked at this child directly.

Some people even mocked: "Stinky boy, is this what you give your father to eat?"

As soon as he said this, the child's face changed, but instead of becoming pale, he sneered, and then kicked one of the buckets over, and a bucket of slurry made of chaff and leftovers was poured on the ground. Everyone's faces changed, but they didn't say much, they were sure that this child would go and change them for good food, and they couldn't force the water thieves, so they couldn't bully this child?

The child looked at the group, sneered again, and ran to the latrine.

He stirred it in the latrine with a stick, and then placed it in the bucket of slurry that had not been knocked over.

When everyone saw this scene, their eyes froze, and their hearts were slightly cold.

"Whether you want to eat or not, I have been given the task of feeding the pigs, and by the way, feeding you. By the way, don't dream, no one will bring you food except me, if you don't eat everything on the ground, then you will be hungry all the time, and when the food on the ground is finished, I will give you the next meal on time. With that, the skinny boy shrugged his shoulders and walked away.

The group of people looked at the child deadly, and then looked at the group of water thieves as if asking for help.

Naturally, the water thieves will not care about the people and turn a deaf ear.

Although the sun is not as hot as summer, it is also a bit scorching.

Soon, the spilled pig food was covered with flies.

An old man stared at the pig food in the bucket without manure, and finally shouted, "I can't stand it!"

......

Xu Changan sighed, took out a piece of dry cake from his arms and chewed it quietly.

In the evening, the child came again, and many people were so hungry that their eyes were blue, and they stared at the child tightly, and they did not dare to say anything again.

The kid looked at the bucket of pig food that he had kicked over before, it was empty, smiled and said, "By the way, what can't you eat!"

So saying, he poured out the pig food that had been stained with dung, and threw the bucket under the gaze of the people. When the people saw this scene, they actually had a little bit of a good impression of this child who fed them pig food.

Soon, the child came again with two buckets of pig food.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead, waited for the people to finish eating, and then went back with the bucket.

Xu Changan stared at the child's back, thoughtful.

......

When Yue'er hung on the branches, a new group of people were driven into the fence again.
