Chapter 17: Eight Leaders
Zeng Yiqi and others walked to the front of the town office.
"You bastards, give back my son's life!" An old woman staggered towards Zeng Yiqi and the four of them, still holding a high cane.
Zeng Yiqi walked on the right side, and the old woman just rushed to him, and the cane knocked on Zeng Yiqi's arm. Zeng Yiqi had already realized that this was just an ordinary old man, and he didn't blame him. The old woman's crutches were not enough, and she rushed forward to grab Zeng Yiqi's clothes and wanted to bite.
was a little inexplicable, and he didn't dare to push her, so he let her tear it.
And a woman in the back stepped forward and grabbed the old woman.
"I'm sorry uncles, my mother is a little crazy on weekdays, don't blame you!" the woman pulled the old woman away.
"Don't pull me, I'm going to fight with them!" the old woman refused to leave, and grabbed Zeng Yiqi's clothes with one hand.
"This eldest lady, you can tell me something slowly, what's wrong with your son?" Zeng Yiqi asked the old woman.
"Young master, it's okay, you don't think about it, my mother is like this," the daughter of that family burst into tears, and then another old man came to help, and finally ripped the old woman away. The old man said to Zeng Yiqi and others: "The old woman saw someone cut off her head the day before yesterday, and she was scared of madness, don't blame you." ”
"It's okay," Zeng Yiqi watched the two of them pull the old woman away, and his heart was a little blocked.
In the town office, Wang Lang walked out.
"General Wang!" everyone hurriedly greeted.
"The four knights, please," Wang Lang said with a smile on his face: "The atmosphere in this stone town is not good, the woman has been crying bitterly all morning, and she has already asked someone to drive them away just now, how do you know that she is running again." If General Li knows, I'm afraid he will be killed. ”
Zeng Yiqi doesn't like it here. Liu Yue took the lead in entering the yamen, and Zeng Yiqi and Zhao Dazui followed. Wei Zuo watched the three of them leave in place, not knowing what he was thinking!
"Wei Shaoxia," Wang Lang called him, and Wei Zuo reacted.
In the inner courtyard of the Yamen, General Li Tang and the two generals Wang Li last time were already seated, and Jia Xin was still standing next to him.
"All the knights have arrived, watch the tea, and sit. ”
"General Xie Li. ”
"In the battle of Suspicious Source Mountain, Li thanked everyone for their help," Li Tang snorted.
General Li was polite, and the arrest of the bandits was all up to General Li's troops. We have also benefited a lot," Liu Yue followed haha.
"Please come over today, I think a few of you are clear, we have also found a group of bandits in the Troubled Stone Hills, and I hope you can help exterminate them. ”
"How can General Li say that he helps, we and other martial arts practitioners have the obligation to contribute to the peace of the place. Don't say that this place is still within the scope of the Hengshan Sect!"
"Okay, since Liu Daxia said so, then we won't be polite, Jia Xin, share the news you know with Liu Daxia. ”
"Yes, General. ”
"Isn't Jia Xin's news used to sell for money?" Zeng Yiqi said coldly.
"Senior brother, this is the town office, shut up," Zhao Dazui was wrong when he heard Zeng Yiqi's words, "The crazy energy of the crazy woman just now infected you?"
"Hehe, what this Zeng Shaoxia said is good. Originally, contemptible people made a living by selling news. However, less than half a month after General Li came to Panshi Town, he exterminated more than 20 bandits from Suspicious Source Mountain, which shows that General Li is sincere for the people of Panshi Town and for the peace of the local area. We and other natives naturally want to contribute to the cause of General Li Tang. ”
"Then how much did you sell for this modest effort?" Zeng Yiqi said again.
"Shut up, the bandits should be dealt with by everyone, and one person mutters something. I'm here to discuss with General Li about the suppression of bandits, so shut up. Liu Yue was also angry, "General Li, this kid has just entered us, and the discipline is not strict, don't blame him!"
"It's okay, this son contributed a lot to the last time to suppress the bandits! It's not wrong, General Ben likes it," Li Tang snorted and said, "Jia Xin did tell me a piece of news here, it is about the situation of the bandits in Suspicious Source Mountain, Liu Daxia must know." ”
"Brother Jia, please elaborate. ”
Jia Xin smiled, "Presumably Liu Daxia still remembers that he bought news from me a few days ago?"
"Exactly. ”
"Are there any suspected source mountain bandits arrested by General Li who are the people you asked?"
"Nope. ”
"That's right. The bandits arrested last time are just the tip of the iceberg, is Liu Daxia aware of it?"
"Yes, I also feel that there should be someone else in the bandits," Liu Yue's face was solemn.
"I remember, the masked man who fought Uncle Liu alone with Uncle Liu during the last time he suppressed bandits, and he finally said 'avenge me', could it be that he was referring to the other bandits in Suspicious Source Mountain?"
"That's right," Jia Xin applauded, "Since General Li has the heart to uncover the scar of Panshi Town, I, Jia Xin, will also squeeze the abscess under this scar." Listen to me. ”
"Pour tea for Brother Jia. ”
"As far as I know, the bandits from Suspicious Source Mountain have actually been entrenched here for a long time, and they used to be just petty fights, and they were all doing business from afar. Such a blatant robbery in the past two years is because there is a new leader in Suspicious Source Mountain, that is, the leader who was eliminated by Liu Daxia that day. ”
"Is there anyone more powerful than him?" asked Zhao Dazui.
"Yes, even if it is the one who has been destroyed, there are eight leaders in total," Jia Xin glanced around at everyone, and then said, "These people are the Silver Lord, the Wind and Moon Lady, the Hookah King, the Fox Wolf, the String of Weather, the Branch Break, the Hercules King, and the Rising Mountain. The one who is destroyed is the one who falls to the mountain. ”
"What about the name?"
"These eight people are all called by nicknames, and they never reveal their names. I didn't find their names, either. ”
"How do you know that the person Uncle Liu killed was Yingshan Down?" Zeng Yiqi asked again.
"Didn't we bring back the man's body?" he would know when he saw it!" Zhao Dazui hurriedly explained.
"If that's the case, then the bandits of Suspicious Source Mountain, you must have seen it all?"
This question is not so easy to answer, Jia Xin was silent for a moment, "I have my source, please believe me." ”
"We believe you, Brother Jia, you go on," Li Tang relieved him.
"Okay, after talking about people, I'll explain to you again the situation of the cottage where the bandits are entrenched," Jia Xin looked at Zeng Yiqi again, "I guess you have also gone to the Suspicious Source Mountain to investigate, and you can't find the bandits' stronghold there!"
"Exactly, we all went up for days," Mr. Zhao said.
"Because their stronghold is not in the Suspicious Source Mountain, but the Ranshi Gang in the south of the Suspicious Source Mountain," Jia Xin smiled again, "I guess everyone has heard of the Ranshi Ridge!"
"Is it a rocky hill or a corpse hill?"
"To be precise, it should be the corpse hill, because there were too many people who died there, and the corpses were piled up that year. There is a lot of corpse gas there, accompanied by plague and miasma, and no one usually goes there. No one knows where they built the cottage. ”
"Are they not afraid of miasma?"
"People who live here all year round naturally have a certain ability to adapt, and in addition, the corpse gang has heard that there is an herb that can delay and restrain miasma. ”
