"No matter how powerful a group of bandits are, it's impossible to fight against the City Lord's Mansion, isn't the City Lord's Mansion in charge?" Luo Qi asked strangely.

"Of course," the middle-aged shopkeeper said, "Although the City Lord's Mansion has been peaceful for a long time, and he was a little caught off guard for a while, he still reacted quickly, and under the leadership of the old city lord, the city lord's palace guards defeated the mountain bandits, killing more than 100 bandits on the spot." ”

"It's just strange that the old city lord died suddenly shortly after that, and one after another, the heads of some of the original family gangs in the city have disappeared. Some new forces have also risen suddenly. ”

"After the death of the old city lord, his place was succeeded by his son, who was originally a gentleman and did nothing after becoming the city lord. And the group of mountain bandits soon returned, and he actually ordered not to resist. The bandits were allowed to loot the wealth of the city, but this time the bandits only robbed the wealth but did not harm the lives of the people in the city. And they take part of it, and leave a small part. Every month after that, the bandits would come and loot at regular intervals, and although they took less and less, they would leave a small portion each time. ”

"That's why there is a guest officer, although no one is starving to death, but the scene is extremely depressed. Many people privately said that this was a collusion between the city lord's mansion and the mountain bandits. Alas!"

After Luo Qi heard this, his brows furrowed, and his heart was extremely shocked, he couldn't believe that this city adjacent to Snow Spirit City would actually have such a thing that was equivalent to the city changing hands.

"In that case," Luo Qi asked, "why didn't anyone go to the Domain Protector Sect to report or ask for help from the neighboring city?"

"When the guest officer enters the city, can he see someone leaving the city?" asked the middle-aged shopkeeper rhetorically.

Luo Qi tried to recall: "Yes, I saw a caravan with about dozens of people out of the city. ”

"They went to other cities to trade, but there were mountain bandits watching them, and they could only go to the cities that were allowed by the regulations, and if they dared to go somewhere else, they would all be killed. ”

"In fact, at the beginning, there were many people who went out to ask for help or run for their lives, some said it and no one believed it, some didn't come and said it, but without exception, they all died. ”

"Moreover, your luck is very bad, the time of the mountain bandits to loot this month is tonight, I can only advise you to stay in your room as much as possible and not come out at that time, and hide your belongings as much as possible. I can't help anything else. ”

Luo Qi didn't say anything after hearing this, thanked him, and returned to the table where Qin Luo was, at this time, the shopkeeper had already put the dishes on one after another, and also took a pot of wine.

Seeing that Qin Luo only poured it for himself, He Yuexiao snatched the wine jug, Qin Luo was slightly stunned: "Senior sister, you also drink?"

"Haven't you ever seen a woman drinking? He Yuexiao glared at him.

"You all heard what you said just now, what do you two think?" Luo Qi poured himself a glass after sitting down.

"These mountain bandits are not simple, one of the city lords here is from the Xuan Realm, but they are still killed. I knew that I would definitely not enter this city, but now that I hear this, it seems that a caravan that is not designated will not be able to leave the city at all, and it will be a big deal. Qin Luo said.

"I'm a little interested, but it's beyond our ability to do now. Let's have a good rest, we will act at the opportunity tonight, and with our strength, we may not be able to get out of the night. He Yuexiao drank all the contents of the cup and made a decision directly.

After eating, all three of them entered the room to rest, and the sky outside was quietly darkened. But for the people of Changping City, tonight was destined to be a sleepless night, some of them buried their property three feet into the ground, and failed to seize the looting of the mountain bandits.

On the roof of the Tongfu Inn, Qin Luo and the other three were wearing night clothes, dressed like assassins, and these clothes were prepared by He Yuexiao to facilitate their actions at night.

They scanned the brightly lit and noisy below, observing the specific situation below.

"Sure enough, I can't see the cultivation led by these mountain bandits, it should be through the Xuan Realm, junior brother, can you see it?" He Yuexiao asked.

Qin Luo shook his head: "I can't see either, my fire eye ability is still very low." ”

"This group of mountain bandits is really not picky eaters, from cultivation resources to pots and pans, everything you can see. ”

"No, you see some of them don't take it, they take it all valuable things. ”

"Wow!" A sword light flashed in the distance, and a scream followed, followed by a commotion.

"Chief, there are people there who have wounded our brothers. ”

"Oh, I can't imagine that there are any more people who don't know whether they are alive or dead, come with me and see. The bald leader and a few minions immediately dared to go to the place where the incident occurred.

"Shall we take the opportunity to leave?" Luo Qi asked as he looked at Qin Luo and He Yuexiao.

"Someone is resisting, and I'd like to see it. Qin Luo smiled and said, after speaking, he didn't care about the reactions of the other two, and flashed directly over there.

He Yuexiao and Luo Qi glanced at each other, and finally He Yuexiao smiled and said, "This guy said that he didn't want to do anything, but in fact, he was also an idle person." Keep up. After saying that, the two of them also rushed over there.

"Who dares to hurt my subordinates, why don't you kneel down and die!" Seeing his seriously injured subordinates, the bald leader shouted at him with righteous indignation. At least that seems to his men.

I saw that inside the door of the broken wooden house, a handsome young man in a blue robe slowly walked out with a long sword, he stood tall and facing the wind, and looked at the group of people in front of him coldly.

Immediately after him, a few more people walked out behind him, and compared to the calmness of the young man, these people were obviously a little trembling. They were an old couple and a young woman with a handsome face, whose clothes were hastily tidied but still a little disheveled.

The discerning person looked at it a few times, and probably guessed the general idea of this matter: it is estimated that when the bandits were looting people's wealth, they saw the young woman who couldn't hold back her beastly hair for a while, and then she must have been injured by the young man in front of her.

The bald leader obviously saw it, only to see him turn around and glared coldly at his injured subordinates: "You take the order as a deaf ear, and I will settle accounts with you when I turn around." ”

No matter what, in full view of everyone, he would never punish his subordinates right now, and then apologize to others. It's one thing for him to punish himself, it's another thing for others to dare to hit his subordinates, and that's to slap him in the face.

was glared at by the leader, and the bandit could only bow his head and remain silent. Logically speaking, it is normal for them to do these facts as bandits, but they have indeed been ordered not to make extraneous branches except for plundering money, and they have always been restrained before, but this time when they saw that this family only had a weak old couple and a weak daughter, they couldn't help but feel gallant, thinking that with his cultivation in the Spirit Realm to deal with a few mortals, it could be said that the gods were unaware. This is indeed the case, but halfway through, the young man in front of him killed the hero to save the beauty. Therefore, when he looked at the young man in front of him at this time, he was full of hatred and anger.
