Chapter 16 Crow Cottage

Ji Yunxi and Zhong Zhenghao walked side by side, walking for a pillar of incense.

Zhenghao looked back to take another look at the village, but when he looked back, he saw thick black smoke rising over the village.

If it weren't for the fire burning, even if the fire was burning, it wouldn't be like this, Zhenghao said with Ji Yunxi.

Ji Yunxi looked back and knew that this was unusual, and the two of them turned around and rushed back to the village.

Ji Yunxi was running extremely fast, and he was trying his best to follow behind, and the two of them rushed back without a moment.

Standing at the entrance of the village, I saw a raging fire burning in the village, and there was an old man sitting on the ground in front of the house crying.

The fire continued to burn, not only burning the house but also Zhenghao's blood.

He was already furious, and such a tragedy was so familiar to him.

The firelight covered the village and the fire came from the shop, even Ji Yunxi felt a trace of heat, although he was angry, he still had to understand why this was the case, and it was not long before they left.

The two rescued the old man in front of the house from the flames, and he didn't have much left.

Ji Yunxi and Zhenghao also recognized that this was the old man who rented their house and lived in it and brought them food.

With the support of Ji Yunxi, the old man slowly left the village that had been burned and destroyed.

The old man's face was covered with blood, Ji Yunxi helped him lean against the tree, looking at the old man's appearance, Ji Yunxi's face was very calm.

Zhenghao asked anxiously: "What the hell is going on here, old man, how did it become like this?" ”

Seeing the villagers who treated them so kindly, the village was destroyed, and the grandfather who helped them became like this, Zhenghao had tears rolling in his eyes.

The old man's originally kind eyes had become cloudy, and he looked at the two of them weakly and said: "It's good that you are back, we won't die in vain, The food and women in the village have been robbed, those people are from Black Crow Ridge and are a group of vicious bandits, you report this matter to the government to avenge us." ”

When the old man said this, he was already angry and went straight to his head, his eyes were wide with anger, and his face was hideous.

But this sentence also exhausted the old man's last breath, and he still lowered his head and swallowed.

Looking at the old man Zhenghao who was burned all over his body, he couldn't stop his tears anymore, and he fell to the ground one by one.

Ji Yunxi didn't speak, stretched out his hand to gently close the old man's eyes, and buried the body under the tree at the head of the village, so that he could return to his hometown.

The two of them stood under the tree in front of the grave, and Ji Yunxi's face was calm and said softly: "Let's go." ”

Zhenghao choked up with tears in his eyes and asked, "Where are you going?"

Ji Yunxi pulled out the long sword at his waist, and the long sword buzzed lightly in his hand.

He carried his sword and said, "Go collect the debt!"

Zhenghao looked up at the master, wiped the tears from his eyes with his cuffs, and said resolutely: "It's the master!"

The two of them went straight to Crow Ridge.

Black Crow Ridge is not far from Yaoshan Village, and Ji Yunxi has also heard of it in the mouths of the villagers.

This group of bandits usually robs people in the aisles, but for some reason they ransacked the mountain village today and snatched the woman.

Of course, this is not what Ji Yunxi has to consider, he just went to collect debts, that's all.

The anger and hatred in Zhenghao's heart at this time were even stronger, I don't know if it was because this village reminded him of his hometown and his parents.

At this time, he only felt that the blood in his body was surging, and he just wanted to kill those bandits, but he didn't have a sword, only a wooden sword.

It doesn't matter because there will always be in Black Crow Ridge, Ji Yunxi and noticed the change in Zhenghao, and he knew that this was the best opportunity to train him.

Only the swordsmanship that truly drinks blood can make the pure character of Zhenghao stronger.

What sets Black Crow Ridge apart from other peaks is that it's a place where Black Crows are entrenched.

On the top of the hill is a group of bandits, which was originally deserted, and the stockade was built by these bandits.

The stockade is made of felled trees, which are somewhat rough but can withstand the sun and rain.

In the past few years, this group of bandits has robbed passers-by, dart bureaus, these non-governmental people and organizations, but they have not touched the government and sects.

has never harmed people's lives, at most, it will be friction with people in the rivers and lakes, and it will hurt both sides.

Due to the special geographical location, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the government did not go to exterminate, encircle and suppress, and they have survived until now.

A group of thieves in the Black Crow Ridge cottage are holding a feast, drinking wine and eating meat, a lively scene.

A large long table filled the middle of the hall with wine and meat, and a group of thieves sat on either side and gobbled it up.

There are also a few people holding women in their hands, naturally forcibly taken from the mountain village, this group of people is so unhappy.

There was a man sitting high in the hall, different from them, he drank wine in a small cup, ate meat on a small plate, and had a gorgeous beauty beside him.

The woman sitting on the side was different from the women in the village, this woman had a glamorous temperament with gaudy makeup.

This man was the eldest of the bandits, and he took a sip of wine, resting his left hand on the armrest, and looked at the brothers below.

He said to the beauty next to him: "Sister-in-law, look at how happy they are, although our life was okay when the eldest brother was there, but where are the brothers so happy, drinking and eating meat, and women are happy in their arms, this is the life we should have as thieves hahahaha." ”

The man couldn't stop laughing, but the woman next to him kept her mouth shut and sat upright without saying a word.

She didn't look at the people around her and the group of bandits below who were already working on the girl.

The girls also shouted, but the more they shouted, the more they laughed.

Seeing that the beauty didn't answer, this person was even more excited when he saw her serious appearance.

Picked up the flask and poured a glass of wine and handed it over, he pinched the beauty's face and poured the wine directly into her.

The woman naturally refused, and grabbed the man's arm with both hands to break free, but in vain.

The man didn't move, and the woman couldn't resist the man's strength after all, and the wine slowly poured it all in.

As soon as the man let go of his hand, the woman's throat was burned by the liquor and coughed.

The man was overjoyed, put the cup down, stood up, and said to the people below, "Brothers, are you happy?" ”

The group of people who were gobbling up at the bottom saw the boss asking and said, "Be happy!"

A group of people excitedly raised their glasses and laughed.

He continued: "Okay, do you want to be so happy in the future? ”

The group of people below replied in unison: "Yes!"

He continued: "The day after tomorrow, there will be a group of people from the government who will transport food and wages through the path under the mountain next to them. ”

Hearing the gold, the man became even more excited, picked up his various weapons and said, "Rob, rob, rob!"

He said: "Okay, let's eat, drink and have fun today, we will go and rob them the day after tomorrow, my sister-in-law is a little too drunk, I will help her down to rest first." ”

The woman was poured wine and drank down to the collar, and the man was moved by her fascination.

When the woman heard this, her face suddenly turned pale, her hands were clenched, she helped the charming woman up, and walked out of the hall through the side door.

The group of people below were howling and whistling excitedly, and they naturally knew what the boss was doing.

There was a man at the door, quietly watching the crowd revelry and having fun, he half-leaning against the doorframe and no one paying attention to him.

Seeing that the charming woman was taken down, she also walked out of the door, and she didn't know where to go.

In the woods at the foot of the Black Crow Ridge Mountain, Ji Yunxi carried Zhenghao on his back and ran quickly in the mountains and forests with light footwork.

Zhenghao has never practiced light skills, and his speed is too slow, Ji Yunxi can only carry him on his back, so that it is faster.

After half a pillar of incense, the two rushed to the cottage stone wall.

Ji Yunxi put Zhenghao under the stone wall of the cottage, and there were bandits patrolling on the stone wall.

But under the stone wall, they couldn't see this place, and Ji Yunxi told Zhenghao to stand in this place and not move.

He wants a person to deal with the people on the stone wall first.

On the stone wall, two thieves stood casually with large knives in their hands, and the two looked at the distance and chatted.

One person said: "I really envy that they are still drinking wine and eating meat inside, and today it is the turn of our brothers to be on duty so that I want to taste the delicate bodies of those little women in the village." ”

The man's eyes were shining as he spoke, and he subconsciously licked the corners of his mouth.

Another person said: "A few women in the village are just ordinary goods, and if I want to say that if I can enjoy a night of fish and water with my sister-in-law, I will really die without regrets." ”

He had a look of yearning but regret on his face.

Another person said: "Heh, don't daydream about it, I said that your sister-in-law can only be enjoyed by the eldest brother now, let's stand guard honestly as little soldiers and shrimps." ”

Just when the two regretted each other, the charming sister-in-law was being ravaged by the eldest brother, and a figure suddenly rushed up.

He jumped from the bottom to the stone wall and stood between the two of them.

The two reacted and shouted that there was an enemy, but they hadn't uttered a word yet.

Ji Yunxi had already stabbed out with two swords, and the two of them covered their throats with all their might, but it was in vain to try to keep the lost blood.

The two fell straight down, seeing that the two of them were exhausted, Ji Yunxi looked around, and saw that no one was nearby and no one was found.

He jumped off the stone wall and slowly opened the wooden door from the inside, and after opening the door, Ji Yunxi took Zhenghao in.

The two walked into the cottage together, lined with simple wooden houses, and outside the wooden houses were food and weapons.

And the most unusual thing is that there is no one here.

The two walked slowly, and Ji Yunxi was also very vigilant and observed the wind and grass around them.

Walking and walking, Ji Yunxi stopped, he walked into a wooden house and let Zhenghao stand in place.

After a moment of entering, Ji Yunxi walked out, but there was one more thing in his hand, which was a real sword The three-foot Qingfeng showed a chill.

Zhenghao could feel the sharpness of this sword from a distance.

Ji Yunxi looked at Zhenghao and said: "There will be a scuffle today, I can't take care of you later, you will use the method of my usual confrontation with you to fight the enemy, remember that either you die or he dies, this sword will drink blood today." ”

Ji Yunxi threw the sword lightly and fell into Zhenghao's hand, Zhenghao caught the sword and held the hilt with both hands to feel that it could be held steadily.

This is very different from the wooden sword he used to practice, Zhenghao looked at the sword in his hand after hearing these words, and his heart was a little dazed, but he was not a stupid person and naturally understood what Ji Yunxi meant.

only said firmly to Ji Yunxi: "Disciple understands!"

Ji Yunxi was very satisfied when he heard his answer, so he led him to continue walking towards the depths of the cottage.
