Chapter 164: Bandits and Bandits
The group walked for another week on the go, originally according to the plan, it was not far from Song Capital at this time, but because of the addition of Liu Zhong's Zheng Ming, Nie was only half of their trip, and there was still a long way to go.
"Routine checks. When the four of them were about to pass through a town, the soldiers at the gate stopped the four people, Nie Li turned around and exchanged glances with Mo Xiaotou, so he dismounted, and the others saw that Nie Li had dismounted, and they also dismounted.
Nie Li put his package and knife on the table in front of the soldier, and the soldier opened the package very rudely, throwing the contents aside casually, and the neat luggage that had been packed was a mess. I picked up the autumn rain knife and pulled it out, and the shiny blade suddenly came into view. The soldier who was inspecting glanced at Nie Li.
Liu Zhong, Zheng Ming and Mo Xiaotou also put their luggage on the table, Liu Zhong and Zheng Ming's weapons are ordinary weapons, and Mo Xiaotou's weapons are very special, these people can't see it at all. "And the wooden box behind you, give it to me too. The soldier spoke very politely and slapped the table.
Nie Li's eyes became more aggressive, it was already a great relief to let the other party check the luggage! But this person had to inch in, and he even wanted to see the wooden box, that knife, his father said, anyone who saw this knife would die.
"You must see it, and you will have to bear the consequences. Nie Li's eyes showed a fierce light, and a trace of murderous aura also leaked out to play, these soldiers looked at Nie Li vigilantly, although he didn't dare to look at such eyes, but he also had his own courage.
There are so many people behind him, and the court behind him is his courage. "What, do you still want to kill me?" He was not afraid, he slapped the table and cheered himself up, and the other soldiers also noticed the movement here, and walked towards Nie Li with their weapons.
"Misunderstandings, misunderstandings, misunderstandings, we're just in a hurry. Liu Zhong looked at the soldiers who came around, and a trace of panic flashed in his eyes. The corners of Zheng Ming's mouth sneered, this is the people who defend the family and the country, and their knives fall on their own people faster than anyone else.
"Arrest these people, they want to kill me. The soldier shouted loudly, and Nie Li squinted his eyes and saw that an arrow rushed in front of him, bent his fingers into claws, pinched the man's throat, and lifted him up with one hand very easily.
The soldier blushed, slapped Nie Li's arm vigorously, grabbed Nie Li's wrist tightly, and inhaled heavily. "Put it down for me. Seeing that his companion was caught by this person, the other soldiers directly took up their weapons and approached them step by step.
"If you go one more step, I'll kill him. The force on Nie Li's hand increased, the soldier's face turned pale, similar to a dead man, and the others exchanged glances, stopped, and did not take a step forward.
"Your Excellency, if you have something to say, why be so angry. A deep voice sounded, and Nie Li saw a middle-aged man covered in armor and well-equipped walking towards him through the crowd, and his momentum and clothing could be seen that this person should be an officer.
"Can you say anything here?" Nie Li looked at the other party, sure enough, the person who has experienced the battlefield has a strong aura, and his strength should not be weaker than himself, but he is not afraid, when the time comes, with Mo Xiaotou to help him, plus his own hole cards, it is not too difficult to kill this person. The middle-aged officer looked at Nie Li, and there was no fear in the latter's eyes, or rather, his eyes had not changed.
It is a domineering attitude that looks down on the world, but it is more of an indifference and coldness, and the person in front of him is not simple. "That's right, I'm their army
Length, I've got the final say here. "An officer has never been so despised by a junior.
"Let's get over. Nie Li's simple five words made the officer scratch his head. "As long as you pass the inspection, you can pass. The officer replied officially, and he also guessed it, that is, Nie Li has something that can't be seen by others, the wooden box behind it, looking at the material of the wooden box and the exquisite and cumbersome patterns, the things inside must not be vulgar.
"You can also see why you are pretending to be confused. Nie Li lifted the soldier up in his hand, and the latter's limbs began to twitch, and if this continued, it would not be long before he would suffocate to death.
"Okay, then you can kill him, it's a big deal that I'll send you to accompany him later. The officer was extremely cold-blooded, and his words undoubtedly sentenced the soldier in front of him to death, in fact, they were routine checks, as long as they were not suspicious people.
And when it comes to the conflict with the four young people in front of him, it is estimated that things are not as simple as they seem. "Okay, I just happened to have itchy hands lately, but if you want to kill me, you're talking a bit big. A cruel smile appeared at the corner of Nie Li's mouth.
Liu Zhong pulled Nie Li on the side, "Nie Li, forget it, if you go against the army, you will go against the court, and we will be wanted later." Zheng Ming also nodded, although the behavior of these soldiers made him very unhappy, but if he was targeted by the imperial court, it would not be easy to complete the things after that.
Nie Li had a headache, he didn't expect that he would ignore this, but now do you want to let go of the people in front of you? Even if they let go, it is estimated that they will not let go of themselves easily. Suddenly, Nie Li seemed to think of something, maybe that thing could come in handy.
"Come here, I'll show you something. Nie Li pointed at the officer, hooking his fingers. Such an action really annoyed the officer, and he provoked again and again.
"If you don't come, I'll kill you all. After Nie Li finished speaking, all the murderous aura emanated from his body, pressing on everyone's hearts, Liu Zhong and Zheng Ming looked at Nie Li in horror, and even the officers opposite looked at Nie Li in disbelief.
With such a majestic murderous aura, how many people are going to be killed, he still looks so small. The officer looked around at his terrified subordinates and knew that Nie Li had already defeated everyone except himself with this murderous aura alone. With heavy steps, the officer walked towards Nie Li step by step, and he was still extremely cautious, because people's hearts were unpredictable.
Walking in front of Nie Li and looking at this man more closely, the officer could vaguely guess from his immature face that he was a little younger than he thought. Nie Li put his free hand into his arms, and this action made the officer's vigilance great.
Nie Li took out a token and quietly let the officer take a look, because his movements were extremely hidden, and no one saw what he was holding, but Mo Xiaotou seemed to have guessed something, and showed a natural smile. "Greetings. The officer took a closer look, his back was cold, and he hurriedly clenched his fists and prepared to salute, but Nie Li coughed lightly and interrupted him.
Looking at Nie Li's eyes, the officer is also a person who has experienced the world, so he naturally knows, but he is also curious in his heart, how can Nie Li have this token, his age is too young. But with this token, you have to value this person.
"Now, I can go into the city. As soon as Nie Li's fingers loosened, the soldier sat on the ground, panting heavily, he didn't see what Nie Li was holding, but he saw the last look of horror, fear, and a hint of respect on the officer's face.
"Yes. The officer nodded, Nie Li had that token, if he dared to stop him again, unless he didn't want to mess around. "Go and pack your bags. The officer shouted, and several clever soldiers put down their weapons and sorted out the luggage of Nie Li and the others. Liu Zhong and Zheng Ming looked at the huge change, they were tense a second ago, but at this moment they are in harmony, this is power.
"In Xia Malu, dare to ask the adults where they are going. The officer began to inquire about Nie Li's information, after all, the patrol envoy is not a small person, he is in charge of life and death, and he directly obeys the emperor's orders.
"Song Du, Jiaocha. Nie Li replied very crisply. "Why have you come all the way, you have to check. Mo Xiaotou interjected and asked.
"My lord doesn't know anything, the bandits in the northern Montenegro are serious, burning and looting everywhere, since I have been in Changping City, many cities have set up checkpoints. When the officer spoke of this, he looked a little sad.
"In Montenegro, there have always been bandits, why did they suddenly start making waves this year. Mo Xiaotou asked curiously, and Nie Li was a little puzzled. "From here to Songdu, there will be a section of road in the middle, it is a valley, the valley is on both sides of the Black Mountain, originally it had no name, until a group of bandits began to loot in the valley, everyone called this mountain Black Mountain, and the bandits also called themselves Black Mountain Village. Mo Xiaotou briefly introduced Nie Li.
"This young man is right, recently all kinds of robbing merchants in the Black Mountain Village, and there are many bandits who have come back from the outside and mixed into the city to make trouble, and many people have lost their lives, which has alarmed the imperial court, so this is the order, let us suppress the various passes. "The officer also had a headache, apparently this kind of thing happened in Changping City.
"Don't worry, my lord, I will draft a document at that time, and you will need to take out the paperwork at the later gate, and you will be able to pass. The officer spoke, and he saw that Nie Li was unwilling to reveal his identity, so he thought of such a method.
"Then there's Lord Law. Nie Li thanked him. "Then the lord will wait for me at the north gate first, and I will go to draft the paperwork, and the lord can go all the way unimpeded. With that, the officer hurried away.
"Let's go!" Nie Li and the others walked through the town and found that although the city was peaceful, they could also see some clues. Everyone was a little nervous, and when Nie Li walked by, they would all look at it vigilantly, it seemed that it was the influence of the people from the Black Mountain Village.
"Alas, whenever there is a bandit or a natural disaster, it is the ordinary people who suffer. Mo Xiaotou sighed with emotion, and the group walked to the north gate in the strange atmosphere of the city, and the north city gate is the same as the south city gate, and the inspection is relatively strict. It seems that the government's approach to dealing with this matter is quite timely.
"My lord, this is a paperwork for you. Nie Li and the others waited for a while, and then saw the officer arrive on horseback, holding a book in his hand and handing it to Nie Li.
"Thank you, there will be a date later. Nie Li took the fold and put it directly in his arms, without checking anything or anything, this can be regarded as a kind of trust.
"My lord, take care all the way. ”
"Take Care"
The two saluted each other, and Nie Li and the others prepared to get on the horse.
"Close the gates, close them. A roar ignited the originally tense atmosphere.
There was a commotion at the city gates, and a group of people on horseback galloped towards the open gates.
A battle is about to be fought.
