The knife was on his neck, and Ma Kuo couldn't calm down even if he didn't want to.

He waved his hand directly, asked the others to put down their weapons, looked directly at Chu Xiu and said, "Tell me, how did you know where we came from?"

Chu Xiu said lightly: "Guess, the master of the horse village has good kung fu, and at first glance, he is not from a wild road." And look at your behavior, although you behave like bandits, but you are forbidden, and you do not have the casual meaning of ordinary bandits.

In addition, the last time you said the word Qilian, the owner of the horse village, this is even more suspicious, the bandits and the word Qilian are linked, except for the Qilian Iron Cavalry among the thirty-six giants in the Northland, I really can't think of anything else. ”

Ma Kuo couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this: "Damn, the feeling is that Lao Tzu didn't control his mouth." ”

In fact, although Chu Xiu said that he relied on the observation of these details, in fact, he was able to determine the identity of the other party because the original plot mentioned the news about the thirty-six giants in the Northland.

A small fight is a bandit, but a bandit is a giant who has developed to the extreme, a giant who robs the world!

The three major powers in the world, Northern Yan, Eastern Qi, and Western Chu, are almost the same in strength now, but a few decades ago, Northern Yan was extremely weak, and was jointly attacked by Eastern Qi and Western Chu, and they couldn't control it externally, let alone internally.

In the troubled times, in the northern land of Yan Kingdom, bandits grew rapidly, becoming the thirty-six giants of the former northern land, and their power was extremely powerful, and they even dared to rob the Northern Yan court and the great factions of the rivers and lakes.

However, later the Northern Yan re-emerged, and the thirty-six giants in the north heard that they also provoked the Northern Yan martial arts faction in the Extreme North Drifting Snow City, and were defeated by the Northern Yan Imperial Court and the Extreme North Drifting Snow City.

In the original plot, there was the news that the remnants of the thirty-six giants in the north appeared in Wei County, and it was precisely because of this news that Chu Xiu dared to determine Ma Kuo's identity.

Chu Xiu took the knife away and said lightly: "I know the details of the master of the horse village, but I haven't publicized it, now the master of the horse village should know my sincerity, right?"

Ma Kuo rubbed his neck and muttered, "Your knife is indeed fast, but if it is farther away, I will not give you a chance to get close at all!"

After a reckless sentence, Ma Kuo asked, "What do you want to trade with my boss?" ”

Chu Xiu said in a deep voice: "I know the whereabouts of the big boss of the Qilian Iron Cavalry among your thirty-six giants, the 'Red-faced Heavenly King' Pang Hu!

Ma Kuo was taken aback when he heard this, and shouted: "Do you really know the whereabouts of the big boss?

Chu Xiu said lightly: "You take me to see the one behind you, he will naturally be able to distinguish whether what I said is true or false, and besides, when I get there, I don't dare to lie." ”

Ma Kuo thought for a while and said, "Okay, then you can come with me, my boss is on the side of Beiyan Mountain, and it will take a few days to get there." ”

Originally, it was not divided into north and south, just a mountain range, but the mountain range in the middle was slightly smaller, and Tongzhou Mansion was in the center, so it was called North Tomb and South Mountain.

The place where Chu Xiu is now located is the Nanyan Mountain, which leads to the Nanshan mining area, and the North Yanbi Mountain is in the north of Tongzhou Mansion, leading to the Yan Kingdom.

Ma Kuo took Chu Xiu all the way to Beiyan Mountain, and it took five days to copy the trail before he arrived at Beiyan Mountain.

In the Beiyi Mountain, a cottage of considerable scale appeared in front of Chu Xiu's eyes, and there were high-rise arrow towers around it, which looked much more formal than Ma Kuo's small cottage.

Ma Kuo explained: "After coming to Wei County, my eldest built a cottage here, but just in case, we still have a small group of people scattered outside, just like my small cottage. ”

Ma Kuo blew a few strange whistles, and immediately a few bandits came over, arched their hands at Ma Kuo, and said, "Boss Ma, why are you free to come back today? Who is this kid?"

Ma Kuo said: "An acquaintance, I'll take him to see the boss first." ”

The bandits just nodded and didn't care, obviously Ma Kuo had enough prestige here, at least worthy of the trust of these bandits.

After arranging Chu Xiu in a living room, Ma Kuo left directly, obviously to find the one behind him.

Chu Xiu was not in a hurry, so he drank tea there quietly, and after a while, Ma Kuo walked in with a man who was also in his thirties, tall and mighty, with a leopard head and eyes.

This man's strength is much stronger than Chu Xiu, he has already reached the blood condensation realm, and in Chu Xiu's opinion, the other party has even reached the peak of the blood condensation realm, and he is only one step away from entering the innate realm.

The man looked at Chu Xiu, and a fierce aura rushed to his face, and he said in a deep voice: "You said that you know the whereabouts of the big boss?"

Ma Kuo hurriedly said: "This is Han Leopard Han Boss, one of the personal guards of the former big boss. ”

Chu Xiu stood up and arched his hand and said, "Exactly, Chu Xiu has seen Boss Han." ”

Han Bao waved his hand directly, snorted coldly, and said, "Don't talk nonsense, let's talk about it, what do you want." Of course, don't think about the lion's mouth, otherwise I can pry the news of the big boss out of your mouth!"

Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "Boss Han doesn't need to scare me, in fact, I didn't plan to trade this news at the beginning, and now I will tell Boss Han about you as a meeting gift."

As far as I know, after the Pang Hu master was seriously injured by the people of the Northern Yan Imperial Court, he had already taken refuge in the barren mountains and dense forests of Liaodong County in the north, and was recovering his strength and wanted to make a comeback. ”

Chu Xiu didn't lie to them, the 'red-faced king' Pang Hu in later generations really brought a little trouble to the Northern Yan Imperial Court after recovering his strength, but unfortunately it was just a little trouble, and it was easily solved by the Northern Yan Imperial Court.

Han Bao was puzzled: "You didn't lie to me? There were still people from the Extreme North Drifting Snow City who participated in the extermination of my thirty-six giants, and the Extreme North Drifting Snow City is in the Northland, and the big boss will continue to stay in the Northland?"

Chu Xiu said lightly: "The barren mountains and dense forests in eastern Liaodong are barren and uninhabited, neither the Drifting Snow City in the Extreme North nor the Northern Yan Imperial Court will enter them, and only some medicine pickers will occasionally enter.

The boss of Pang Hu only wants to restore his strength, not to develop his power, and this kind of place is very suitable.

Besides, you should have all heard of the truth that the light is dark, and even your own people can't imagine that the big boss Pang Hu will stay in the Northland, and the Imperial Court and the Drifting Snow City in the Extreme North can't even imagine it.

If Boss Han doesn't believe it, you can send someone to Liaodong County to take a look in person, there must be a code left by the big boss Pang Hu to you, and you can walk to Liaodong County quickly from here, and the rest of the month will be there. ”

After hearing this, Han Bao's face softened slightly, and he arched his hand at Chu Xiu and said, "If you can really find the big boss, I Han Bao will accept this love, say, what do you want?"

Chu Xiu didn't say what he wanted, he asked rhetorically: "After finding the boss of Pang Hu, what is Boss Han going to do?"

Han Bao said as a matter of course: "Of course, I went to take the people from the cottage to join the big boss." ”

Chu Xiu shook his head and said: "This is wrong, Boss Han, the big boss of Pang Hu is recuperating now, you go to him has no effect, but will increase the danger of exposing the big boss because of your actions, so I dare to guarantee that after the people you sent meet the big boss, the big boss will definitely let you stay in Wei County for the time being and listen to his orders."

So what you have to do now is to accumulate money and food in Wei County, cultivate resources, and prepare for the re-emergence of the big boss in the future. ”

Han Bao's eyes rolled, he was a rough man, and when he followed Pang Hu's men, he was just an ordinary personal guard, only loyal and brave.

But he is not an idiot, although Chu Xiu said it well, he would not just believe what Chu Xiu said as an outsider.

Han Bao asked directly: "Chu Xiu boy, what do you want for me so much? Although your Chu family only has a little power in Tongzhou Mansion, how can you say that it is also a local tyrant, you don't also want to join my Thirty-six Giants in the Northland, right?"

Chu Xiu said in a deep voice: "What I want is very simple, I don't want to trade with you Boss Han, but cooperation, long-term cooperation." ”

"Cooperation? What kind of cooperation method?"

Chu Xiu pointed to the Yanbi Mountain outside and said: "Wei County is a three-regardless zone, and the Northern Yan rules Wei County in name only, so bandits are rampant in Wei County, even if there are dozens of bandits in this Yanbi Mountain."

However, these bandits went a little too far, robbing money and killing people, and showing no mercy to the caravans that came and went. ”

Han Bao sneered: "We are bandits, they are caravans, why should we be merciful to them?"

Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "But because of this, those caravans are afraid of bandits, so they either don't take the path of the mountain at all, and take the big road instead, although it is time-consuming, but it is safe."

Or arrange a large number of guards to accompany them, so that the bandits can not start, and more and more such situations will also lead to less and less business for the bandits in this mountain. ”

Han Bao frowned when he heard this, in the past, the scale of the thirty-six giants in the Northland was as large, and there were special people to give advice, he really hadn't considered these things, Han Bao couldn't help asking, "Then what should I do?"

Chu Xiu said in a deep voice: "There are no rules, there is no circle, there are no rules, we will make rules! The caravan can enter and leave the mountain at will, but you have to hand over some of the money, after Boss Han takes the money, you can take the initiative to escort the caravan out of the mountain, and anyone who wants to fight the idea of this caravan is an enemy of you, Boss Han."

When the rules are set, Boss Han, your reputation spreads, and the caravans will take the initiative to ask you to pay the money. ”

Han Bao thought for a while and said, "Then wouldn't I be the enemy of the bandits in the entire Dead Mountain?"

Chu Xiu said lightly: "It is enough to have one voice in the entire Mourning Mountain, doesn't Boss Han have the confidence to deal with those rabble?"

Han Bao smiled and said, "Of course there is! If it weren't for my injuries now, I would have solved those wastes a long time ago." ”

Chu Xiu glanced at Han Bao in surprise, it seemed that this person's strength should be innate at the peak, but he was blindsided.
