Chapter 223: Raid on Sanzhai (1)
Although Prince Shuo's bandit team here is slow, only walking forty or fifty miles a day, but Fang Xiaoyu and their side are different, in order to ensure the concealment of their whereabouts and hide the ears and eyes of the smoke and dust of the seventeenth road, they are basically Xiaosu night travel, plus they are equipped with the great Wanliang horses of the imperial court, and they are a double ride, and they are caught up with the fifth in one night. Six hundred miles are commonplace, only when the morning is about to dawn, only to find a hidden place to rest outside the effect, even the food and water are all beef jerky that they carry with their own home, rarely enter those roadside wild shops.
For Fang Xiaoyu's way of hurrying, not to mention that masters like Yongyan and Li Yong are a little unbearable, not to mention Yongqi Gege, who has always been pampered, what about her, since she was a child, she has been a delicate girl who has been held in the palm of her father's hand, how has she ever suffered so much, this time she only secretly ran out with Nishizawa Hidemi, and ran out with Fang Xiaoyu to suppress the bandits, the biggest reason is that she still feels exciting and fun, Fang Xiaoyu did this, and she was completely bitter, this night, she was hungry and thirsty, sleepy and tired, I thought that when I rested, I could find a hot place to eat a good meal, and then sleep beautifully, But Fang Xiaoyu, this kid seems to be against her, every time he rests, he is looking for those places that are not in the village and not in the back, and then he makes a bunk on the ground and lies down directly, even the food and dry food are all brought by himself, even if he is on the road to the store, the hot food sent by the store, it is basically not moving, this day and two days, Yongqi can still hold on, this time Yongqi Gege is naturally full of complaints, but just when she was about to break out, they finally rushed to the Crouching Tiger Cliff in Qilin County.
Although Crouching Tiger Cliff is also one of the seventeen roads of smoke and dust, but they are not very strong in the seventeen clouds of dust and smoke, there are also more than four hundred bandits on the cliff, three village owners, the martial arts of these three village owners are not particularly strong, in the past they are also robbing and robbing past merchants and pedestrians, harassing the villagers, as for the government and those places with a little background, Haoqiang did not dare to provoke at all, high families, as early as when he went out of Beijing, Fang Xiaoyu had already obtained all the information of the seventeen road smoke and dust from Shuntianfu through the relationship of Prince Shuo, and he also knew a little about the details of the seventeen road smoke and dust, so he only took the mountain bandits on the Crouching Tiger Cliff as the first target, the biggest reason is because their power is not very strong, just for their brothers to train their courage.
Although he had already decided to take the mountain bandits on the Crouching Tiger Cliff, how to fight, at least he had to let him inspect the terrain of the Crouching Tiger Cliff before he could make a decision, but what he didn't expect was that as soon as they approached the Crouching Tiger Cliff, they heard the whistle arrows rise through the air, and then they saw three bandit leaders rushing down from the cliff with more than a hundred and ten mountain bandits and surrounding them. The leader of the bandits, wrapped in most half of the tiger skin, his head wrapped in a red scalp, his eyes were like copper bells, and he held two big ring knives, only to see the steel knife in his hand touch, and then said the bandit words that he heard from nowhere, a fierce and vicious appearance: "I opened this mountain, I cut this tree, I want to pass down the mountain, leave to buy road money, half a tooth no, I don't care about killing Lao Tzu or burying it." β
For these mountain bandits, of course, Fang Xiaoyu is not afraid, although the number of people on their side is far inferior to the other party, but their side is a master like a cloud, in addition to the top masters such as Baimei Daoren and Han Wuniang, there are also six masters of Shuo Wangfu to help, if it is such a strong lineup, they can't even handle this group of small mountain bandits, it is better to take a piece of tofu and kill it, more importantly, they were originally going to attack the cliff, and the other party was willing to come down from the cliff, which naturally saved them a lot of hands and feet:" So you're the bandits and robbers of this mountain?"
The bandit leader said in a vicious voice: "It's good to know, over the years, there are not three hundred, but fifty of the pedestrians and merchants under the dead uncle, if you don't want to die, leave the money, horses and women on your body, otherwise you will be killed or buried." β
Hearing his words, Fang Xiaoyu immediately smiled, and said to the brother behind him and the master of the Shuo Palace: "Since everyone has said so, what are you still polite to others, let's do it!"
After hearing this, the masters of Shuowang's Mansion and Fang Shiyu, Hong Xiguan, and Li Jinlun immediately exercised their equipment and rushed towards those mountain bandits, although those mountain bandits were good and numerous, but where were their opponents, they were quickly beaten by them, and the most fierce among these people was Yongqi Gege, under the protection of Nishizawa Hidemi, she used a golden silk soft whip to knock over four or five mountain bandits.
Seeing that his subordinates were invincible, the mountain bandits led by him were about to go over to help, but at this moment, Fang Xiaoyu had rushed over like a white crane passing through the air, and he kicked the mountain bandits led by three legs in a row, and fell into a dizziness, when he settled down and was about to get up from the ground, a snowy Dongying katana was already against his throat, and it was Yokoyama Sakurako who held the knife, and Yokoyama Sakurako said coldly: "If you dare to move, I will kill you." β
The mountain bandit was immediately frightened, and he was frightened, what kind of people are these, even a woman has such a strong skill: "Auntie, put away your knife, I won't move." β
"Let your people throw their knives and squat aside and wait for them to fall. β
"Yes, yes," the mountain bandit hurriedly shouted at the mountain bandits who were still working with the masters of the Shuo Wangfu and Fang Shiyu and other brothers: "Did you hear it, they all dropped their weapons and squatted aside." β
This little life is in the hands of others, where does he dare to act rashly, in fact, without his words, there are not many bandits who can stand.
After giving the order, he immediately asked in a trembling heart: "Auntie, who are you, our brother didn't provoke you, right?" β
"You didn't offend us, but our brothers' hands are a little tight, and the scenery of your Crouching Tiger Cliff is not bad, I want to borrow your place to make some money, do you have no opinion?" Fang Xiaoyu had already walked over while speaking, half reproaching, half admonishing and said: "I said Sakura, although you are a master of using a knife, but you are a girl after all, girls are gentle and reserved, how can you learn from a man to rush forward with a knife, you see that your fierce appearance has scared the bandit brothers, let him go, I have something to say to him." β
"Hey!" Sakurako Yokoyama replied like a kitten, and then put away the knife: "Be honest with me, or I'll be slaughtered." β
Then she retreated and retreated behind Fang Xiaoyu, although she retreated behind Fang Xiaoyu, she still felt a cold swishing gaze staring at the back of his neck, making him feel cold all over, at this moment, he already knew that this seemingly weak Dongying woman was actually a rare master in the rivers and lakes, so he also dispelled the intention of resisting, many years later, he was glad for his decision, especially when he learned that Baimei Daoist had mixed in this team, what kind of person is Baimei, that is the number one master in today's rivers and lakes, one person can beat an army, and such a person is the enemy, isn't it looking for deathοΌ
"This young master, what do you have to say when you come to our cottage?"
If at this time he could not see that this group of people was looking at this young man, then these eyes would have been blind.
"There's nothing to hide, young master, I'll tell you straight," Fang Xiaoyu said with a smile: "Young master, I've been a little tight recently, short of money, I heard that over the years, you have robbed houses and robbed merchants, all of them are so rich, even the official salaries of the imperial court have been robbed many times, it can be said that they are very rich, so I specially came to borrow some money from you." β
The bandit leader heard that his brain hurt and ran to the bandits' den to borrow silver, which was the first time he had heard it, but thinking that if he could spend some money to send away these fierce gods, he gritted his teeth and confessed, and it was all a disaster: "How much silver do you want to borrow?"
"Not much, not much, only tens of millions of taels?"
"How many tens of millions of taels?"
The bandit leader couldn't help but scream.
Hearing his words, Fang Xiaoyu's eyes immediately widened: " I haven't seen the world to bully the young master, I don't know the bottom of your seventeen road smoke and dust, over the years, your seventeen road smoke and dust is very beautiful, the surrounding counties and past merchants can be harmed by you, it is said that even the official salary and disaster silver of the imperial court have been robbed many times, even the imperial court army has been cleaned up many times, it is also in vain, that bit of silver is not a drizzle for you, you can be guilty of crying with this young master, I don't have time to grind my teeth with you little minions. β
The bandit leader cried with an old face: "Our cottage really doesn't have so much silver." β
Fang Xiaoyu said angrily: "I don't have any money and I'm still here here, it's a waste of my time, young master." β
Yokoyama Sakurako interjected on the side and said: "In my opinion, they won't be able to take out the silver anyway, so it's better to cut off all their heads, and besides, the people of these ten miles and eight towns have not let them suffer less disasters over the years." β
Hearing Yokoyama Sakurako's words, the bandit leader was naturally frightened, what kind of people are these, they are even more bandits than their bandits, they wield knives and cut people at every turn, but fortunately, his hanging heart was immediately put back in his stomach, because Fang Xiaoyu immediately gave Yokoyama Sakurako's proposal to no: "Long hair, short knowledge, what do you women know, what is the most precious thing in this world, it is not gold and silver, it is labor, do you understand labor, these people are war exploits in the eyes of the government, Silver, if we sell them to the government as slaves, we can also get a big bounty, right?"
Yokoyama Sakurako glanced at the bandit leader and said, "But these people's martial arts are very strong, and with so many people getting together, it's easy to have an accident." β
Before Fang Xiaoyu could speak, Yongqi Gege had already come out from the side: "I have a good suggestion, do you want to listen to it?"
Hearing Yongqi Gege's words, Fang Xiaoyu immediately became a little impatient: "Go, go, adults talk, children don't interject, play with mud." β
"Don't you listen to me if I really have a good idea?"
"What good ideas can you have?"
Yongqi Gege said a little proudly: "Isn't Baimei Daoist the number one master in the world, he will definitely point the acupoints, you can ask him to give all the acupoints of these people, and then unlock them when my Ama comes." β
Fang Xiaoyu suddenly realized when he heard this: "How did I forget this, Sakurako, you go and invite the white eyebrows senior." β
