Qi Zehui lay on a wet floor mixed with hay, wood chips, and dirt, staring blankly at the dark and dirty ceiling.

The air was filled with the foul smell of dust, cockroaches, and bugs, and it looked thick and sticky in a humid environment, but he wasn't sad about the things he was used to.

He was sad that his friends were drinking and chatting with the heroes of the green forest in the hall of the cottage at this time, while he could only stay in this sloppy little cell and wait for when his ethereal family in the capital would send a ransom to buy him.

Why can't I control myself? Qi Zehui really wanted to slap himself twice.

Suddenly, there was a rush of footsteps outside the door, and then the door to the cell opened. Qi Zehui didn't need to look up to know that it was Xiao Yan.

"Hui Shao, I told the owner of the village, we are both good people who kill dog officials, and your words were made up to deceive the officers and soldiers on the car!" Xiao Yan walked in with a smile on his stomach, "Get up, let's go?"

As he spoke, he let out a long burp, and the air suddenly filled the air with the aroma of wine and meat.

"Fuck!" Qi Zehui patted the dirt on his body and said indignantly: "It's hot when you think about it!"

"What's wrong?" "What's wrong?" Are you too embarrassed to ask me what's wrong?"

Qi Zehui's face turned red with anger: "You are eating barbecue and drinking liquor outside, leaving me to eat rat feces in this stinky place!" What do you mean?"

"Well, I'm not hungry, and I haven't eaten anything good after walking for so long, so I'm thinking about eating two bites first—you see, I'm not here?" Xiao Yan hiccuped a little embarrassedly.

"Your uncle!" "That's... So what do you want?"

"I don't care!" Qi Zehui tilted his head and said angrily, "You... You'll have to get me something to eat too!"

After saying that, his face turned even redder.

When Qi Zehui followed Xiao Yan back to the hall, the banquet was only halfway through, and the heroes who had taken off their robes and weapons were sitting on both sides of the hall, with roasted brown beast meat and wine bowls in front of them. A couple of dark-skinned women danced in the middle of the hall like he had never seen before, looking powerful, but beautiful, it was hard to describe. But the men on both sides still looked very energetic, and burst into cheers from time to time.

The owner of the village who had seen before was sitting on the top chair of the hall, holding a wine glass in one hand and the picture he had obtained earlier in the other.

Qi Zehui looked around and didn't see Li Bo's figure, which made him feel a little strange.

"Ahh

Looking at Xiao Yan beside him with a bright smile, Qi Zehui said in his heart, don't you leave here and talk nonsense with the master, don't hurry up and bring the food!

Then, the owner of the village signaled: "You're welcome! Take a seat! Enjoy our Dali dance! Don't worry, I'll send you down the mountain after two days of rest!"

"Come on, serve wine and meat!"

"The fuck is finally here!" Qi Zehui was secretly happy, and hurriedly found a place to sit down with a wooden stick, and couldn't wait to feast on the wine and meat.

Xiao Yan sat next to Qi Zehui a little cramped, and the lack of a bench under his butt made him always feel that something was missing.

There was one thing that both of them noticed, and although the owner of the village was very polite to them, he never said anything about the picture when they were present. It stands to reason that the purpose of this banquet was originally to celebrate the picture, huh?

Although Xiao Yan said that this was an internal matter of the family, it was not their turn to take care of it, but Qi Zehui always felt that it was not so simple, after all, according to Yang Ming's previous actions, that picture seemed to be a very important thing for the government. This cottage looks like there are only about a hundred people, why do you dare to go against the government?

The feast in the Black Wind Village lasted until nightfall, and under the hints of the words and deeds of the owner of the village and several leaders, intentionally or unintentionally, Xiao Yan and Qi Zehui returned to the arranged room with great interest.

"Tsk, the bed is so cool, but it's a pity that the master hurts and can't roll happily. Qi Zehui pillowed his head with one hand and twisted comfortably on the bed. "I hope that when we leave in two days, this village owner can give some travel expenses, and the days to come will also be moisturized - you know, Kunlun is ethereal, and the point is deep and simple, but it is very difficult to find! ”

"You think it's beautiful!" Xiao Yan replied angrily, but he was also very worried in his heart, this unexpected trip was already unprepared, and he was already in danger before he arrived in the country, and it was indeed very difficult to walk without money in the future.

I don't know what happened to Master, Shi Niang and Little Junior Sister, according to the plan, they should go to the Central Plains in Quzhou to avoid the limelight, the road is far away, and they are dragging their families, so don't let anything happen.

Xiao Yan sighed, pulled out of the formation, and took a horse step. On weekdays, in addition to the day, I have to practice for an hour before going to bed every night before I am willing to fall asleep. These days, the wind and food are deserted, and now that he is full of wine and food, Xiao Yan does not want to miss this opportunity.

For him, every training session is a drop of water into the tank, and as long as he persists, it will fill up one day.

In the middle of the night, Qi Zehui's thunderous snoring surged up like a mountain undulating in waves. Xiao Yan, who was sleeping in a daze, closed his eyes, skillfully ripped off his socks and stuffed them into the mouth of the person next to him, who came from a thin murmuring and chewing sound, and after a while, the snoring quieted down.

But the lights in the cottage hall have not been extinguished.

Xiao Qi and the others rested in Heifeng Village for three days, and then they did not receive overly warm hospitality, but Li Bo, who was driving the car, never appeared, Qi Zehui asked the brothers in the village, and the reply he got was also "foreign, I don't know, I don't care".

On this day, just after the light rain, the weather was slightly cool, and the two took the opportunity to say goodbye to the owner of the village. The owner of the village did not personally send the two down the mountain, but only sent a brother with fast feet to lead them, and filled their bags quite politely. However, to Qi Zehui's disappointment, there was only some extra dry food in his pocket, and there was no money, but he was also very amuseful that he did not have a seizure.

The vegetation on the mountain is not very dense, and in some places it is exposed with yellow-brown mud and some mud.

"Hey, it's nothing now, when the summer season comes, the mountains of grass, trees, and crazy growth can't see the road, and poisonous insects, snakes, and scorpions are also running all over the mountain, and it will be much more difficult to walk at that time!"

"Hey," Qi Zehui looked embarrassed, "I really regret coming to this ghost place now—don't you say that he won't be happy if we go to the Central Plains to find a sect to apprentice?"

Xiao Yan smiled and did not answer.

As he walked, the man who led the way suddenly stopped, and his face became very ugly.

"Big brother, what's wrong?" Xiao Yan asked curiously.

"Look... Look at the mountain!" the man's voice trembled a little.

Xiao Qi and the others walked to the front and squinted down the mountain, only to see the dust at the foot of the mountain in the distance, the flags waving, the neighing of horses, and the seemingly large number of officers and soldiers gathering below.

"Quick! Come back with me! These guys seem to be attacking the village!" The man waved his hand and hurriedly beckoned the two to return the same way. Xiao Yan saw that something was wrong, so he asked Qi Zehui to leave the wooden staff, and hurriedly picked up the latter and ran up the mountain.

"Oh no! no!" the man ran to the front, shouting as he ran.

"What's the matter, Brother Dacheng, what's the matter in a hurry?" asked the man on the watchtower strangely.

"Quick! Open the gate quickly! Something is wrong! The officers and soldiers are coming!" the man said anxiously.

In the hall of the Black Wind Village, after listening to the breathless report of his brothers with a gloomy face, he said calmly: "I don't know their intentions, but I have to guard against them!"

"Big brother, you say, could it be that we did that kind of thing, and the news was leaked by those two guys?" A fat man on the side glanced at Xiao Qi and the two with blue faces viciously, and said, "I think it's better to chop them both first!"

"You!" Qi Zehui was so angry that he jumped up and was about to curse, but Xiao Yan hurriedly pulled back and covered his mouth.

The owner of the village thought for a while and said: "No, they are new to this place, they have no acquaintances, and they have not left the cottage, not to mention that they are still wanted criminals, so they will not take the risk of doing this." ”

"Then what should we do? Those officers and soldiers are menacing, could it be that they are not coming at us?"

"It's hard to say," said the owner of the village, "After all, there is a Huanglin Village near here, and they robbed a batch of official grain half a month ago and made a lot of noise, or they may have gone to them." ”

"What if it's really coming for us?"

The owner of the village stood up: "The officers and soldiers don't know the mountain road, and it will take at least two hours to get here from the foot of the mountain, and we have plenty of time to deal with it--tell the brothers to prepare the guys, whether it is running to Huanglin Village or our Black Wind Village, we can't sit idly by! Although we are a rural villager, we also understand the principle of cold lips and teeth! Summon! Gather manpower and prepare to kill him!"

"Yes!" came a neat shout from the hall.

Xiao Yan and Qi Zehui looked at each other, and consciously retreated to the corner.

To everyone's great surprise, only half an hour later, the officers and soldiers surrounded the Black Wind Village. More than 500 people came, in addition to the miscellaneous soldiers in red hats and blue robes, many of them were knights in iron armor, holding shiny spears in their hands, staring coldly at the green forest heroes with bows and arrows on the watchtower of the cottage.

In the crowd, a middle-aged man in an official robe walked out with a gloomy face, and shouted angrily at the gate of the village: "Tell your owner to come out?"

"Your grandfather, I'm here!" the lord of the Black Wind Village replied loudly as he stood on the high sentry tower with a calm expression.

The bandits below burst into laughter.

The man held back his anger and said, "I don't argue with you bandits, what about the thing you robbed a few days ago? Quickly hand it over! Then immediately disarm and surrender with your people! Otherwise, don't blame the officials for being ruthless!"

The owner of the village couldn't help but sneer: "I brought a few people wearing iron sheets, and I thought that grandpa and I was afraid?

"What am I?" the man sneered, "Look at my scarlet robe, don't you understand?"

The owner of the village looked at the man, and suddenly his face changed: "Assassin history?"

"That's right! This official is the assassin of Nanning Prefecture!"

The faces of the owner of the village and the brothers suddenly became cloudy, and the faces of Xiao Yan and Qi Zehui on the side also changed, and they even invited the assassin of Nanning Prefecture?

"If you want me to say that the government is stupid, only two soldiers are invited to escort such an important thing, and it is strange if you don't lose it!" Qi Zehui pouted.

"Otherwise, I think one is that there are quite a lot of bandits in this place, and it is convenient to hide when there are few people, and the many people will startle the snakes; If this trip hadn't been betrayed by the man surnamed Li, it wouldn't have been a big deal. Xiao Yan thought.

"Cut, isn't it still gone after all that. Qi Zehui pricked up his ears again and looked out through the gap in the wooden wall.

Do you think that our more than 100 heroes in Heifeng Village are vegetarians, and they will come if they are not afraid of death!" The fat man before raised the mace in his hand and roared angrily.

"Hmph, it's really stubborn, if it's really only the official here, naturally you have to weigh three points......" Thorn Shi snorted coldly, "It's a pity, I'm not the only one on this trip!"

The drums suddenly beat in front of the battle, and all the soldiers, including Thorn Shi, respectfully got out of the way, and one person accompanied the sound of war drums, majestic and majestic, striding towards the gate of the village.

Everyone looked at it intently, and saw that the person who came was nine feet tall, burly and strong, wearing a flying feather tiger tooth hood, wearing a lion-patterned black iron chain armor, holding a silver-tailed dragon head halberd, his face was resolute, his skin was rough and he had been on the battlefield for a long time, his eyes were cold, and his armor was like a killing star. If there is an entity in coercion, then this person's aura is enough to level the mountains and rivers!

The mere sight of this man was terrifying, not to mention the poor creatures with whom he had fought or would be.

"I'll wait, welcome King Zhang!" all the soldiers knelt down and saluted, shouting in unison.

"You...... You are!" At this time, the group of people in Heifeng Village were already shocked, and the owner of the village himself was even more bloodless, he couldn't believe that he was greedy, and he actually attracted the first tiger in the battlefield - King Zhang!

It's like a fart that came to the mountain god, dreaming.

"You... You... Are you King Zhang, Prince Li Ji?" The voice of the owner of the village was as soft as cotton, and if it weren't for someone behind him to support him, he would have fallen to his knees at this time.

"There is no Li Ji here," King Zhang's voice was cold and ruthless, and the halberd in his hand sparked a little spark on the ground: "Only Hu Ji!"
