Chapter 4 Cottages
In the dim cave, but seeing the cold light flashing, a figure was like a ghost, looking ahead, suddenly behind, coming and going, extremely fast. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
After a while, Cao Xu put away his sword and stood up, although he was dressed in a tattered beggar costume, he was tall, his eyes were sharp, and he had an extraordinary bearing. The pure yin true qi in the dantian had all been transformed into the true qi to ward off evil spirits, and the seventy-two ways of warding off evil swordsmanship had finally revealed its fangs.
Cao Xu removed the stone at the entrance of the cave and quickly left.
Heifeng Village, located in the west of Fujian, the terrain of the cottage is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack, when the Heifeng Village was established, it robbed the tax and silver of the imperial court, and attracted the officers and soldiers to encircle and suppress, and it relied on the dangerous terrain to block the officers and soldiers from attacking many times, and the matter was very troublesome.
Later, the court was forced to mobilize the good hands of the brocade guards into the mountain, but the owner of the black wind village, the "black god", was a cunning ghost-like guy, as soon as the master of the court came, he abandoned the village and fled, and as soon as the people of the court retreated, he came back.
This kind of thing happened a few times, the imperial court sent troops several times, and the masters of Jinyiwei also came a few times, and it was useless to work the people and lose money, and since then this Black Wind Village has become famous. Merchants and dart bureaus who go south and north, when they pass through the area controlled by Heifeng Village, they must pay tolls to break the fortune and eliminate disasters.
At this moment, Cao Xu was standing in front of the gate of Black Wind Village.
The gateway of this cottage stands between two huge rocks as high as three zhang, it is a steep slope of 70 degrees, and only one or two people are allowed to pass, and you have to climb more than ten meters to really enter the cottage.
This distance, that is the absolute death route of the next fight, with fewer enemies and more enemies, can only be beaten and cannot fight back, and if the opponent pushes a rolling stone down from above, the consequence, the people on the entire route will have to be crushed into meat sauce.
If you want to attack from here, you can't take enough lives to fill it.
Cao Xu has long attracted the attention of the cottage thieves and bandits along the way, and they are shouting and shouting one by one, and some people have gone to the inner village to report.
Looking at the three-zhang high stone wall of the cottage, Cao Xu's gaze directly locked on a slight convexity, and his whole body was full of strength when his true qi was agitated.
"Bang!" Cao Xu suddenly burst into a ball of lotus flowers under his feet, and his whole person went straight up like a rocket pulling onions on dry land, and when the momentum was not reduced, he was on tiptoe, and the point was at the place where he had seen the borrowing force before, and the rise speed was faster for a while.
In the blink of an eye, Cao Xu had already reached the three-zhang high wall, and the minions on the wall were dumbfounded.
"My mother!" Seeing Cao Xu flying up directly like a god, some minions were scared on the spot, more people had weak legs and weak feet and didn't dare to move, and some people were scared to drop their weapons and turn around and run.
"Brush!" The cold light flickered, Cao Xu's body was like the wind, the tip of the sword instantly exploded into a cold light, and the blade of the sword instantly cut through the throat of a minion under the drive of speed, he didn't look at it, and the long sword stabbed into the ribs of the minion next to him, but it went straight into the heart and lungs through the gap.
"Ahh
Just when Cao Xu was on a killing spree, an angry roar came from inside the cottage, "Where did the stinky boy dare to pick on my Black Wind Village, report my name, grandpa's subordinates are not dead and nameless!"
"What a big dog!" The distance became closer, and his voice became more angry and high-pitched, and the other party was obviously completely enraged by Cao Xu's killing. When I asked the newspaper to be named before, I still had the idea of reconciliation in my heart, but now the black god just wants to break the other party's corpse into ten thousand pieces.
The sound of the "whirring" wind was agitated, and the strong wind blowing in his face made Cao Xu's eyes narrow, the black god was rough, his eyes were angry, and the big axe in his hand swept over.
With a strange step, Cao Xu's figure flickered, and he unexpectedly brought out an afterimage. The whole person appeared in front of the opponent without warning, and without the slightest hesitation and hesitation, the sword light pierced forward like electricity.
A line of blood, immediately carrying countless bones and fragments of flesh and blood, surged wildly from the hole after opening the throat and neck!
The black god, a second-rate character in the rivers and lakes. Killed by Cao Xu's sword.
The body that had lost its vitality fell to the ground, Cao Xu took advantage of the situation and pulled out his sword, and bright red blood flowed down from the tip of the sword, representing the end of a life.
Scenes of the past appear in front of me, a happy life, the panic of killing for the first time, the panic of escaping from Fuzhou Mansion, and the powerless ...... of watching my parents being captured.
"Hahaha....... ”
"Woo woo ....... ”
Seeing that the Black Wind Village, the owner of the Black Wind Village, who was once dominant on one side and was helpless even in the imperial court, was given the head under his sword, all his emotions were finally vented.
The later generations were an era of peace that paid attention to the rules of law, but the rivers and lakes were a place where the sword spoke and the force was dominant, and the changes in the external environment brought him great mental pressure, and if this pressure continued to accumulate, it would become a cultivator's inner demon.
How to release pressure, some people will travel, some people will shout, some people will overeat, Cao Xu's choice is to kill. Using someone else's life to complete one's own spiritual transformation is cruel, but it is also effective.
A few lucky minions of Heifeng Village who were lucky enough not to die looked at the life-killing god at the gate who would cry and laugh for a while, and were speechless.
After half a cup of tea, Cao Xu's mood stabilized, wiped his face with his sleeve, and pointed to the remaining minions with his left hand and said, "You guys roll over." ”
A few little minions came over and said, "I've seen this young man." ”
"What are your names, who are you originally, and why did you fall into the grass?" Cao Xu, who was in a good mood, asked casually.
"Little Wang San. ”
"Little Chen Er. ”
"Little Zheng Qi. ”
......
A few people talked nonsense, they are all hard-working people, there is really no way to live their lives, so they have to go up the mountain to be a thief, they all know that this is a head-killing business, but there is no way, one day at a time.
Prosperity, the people suffer, death, the people suffer.
For a while, Cao Xu was uneasy. He waved his hand and said, "You are divided into two groups, one group will bury all the dead bodies here, and let them be buried in the ground." Another group of people went to gather all the money and food in the stockade here. Let's all get to work. ”
Perhaps, I can do something for this era. This was the fourteenth year of the Zhengde Dynasty (1519). Cao Xu frowned, recalled carefully, and remembered that it should be in this year that King Ning rebelled.
The reason why I have an impression is because this rebellious King Ning is too inferior to Zhu Di who is in trouble. This rebellion was thunderous and rainy, and it was extinguished by Wang Shouren in less than a month and a half.
"Emperor Zhengde, King Ning, Emperor Jiajing. Cao Xu suddenly stroked his palms and laughed, the dream of Dahua in his childhood had the opportunity to become true, so that he might be able to get a glimpse of the mystery of why those Taoist masters had entered the WTO and Fulong.
"Shaoxia, we have done everything according to your instructions. A voice called Cao Xu back from his future reverie.
The corpses had been cleaned up, and only the blood stains on the ground could prove that there had been a fierce battle here just now, and many people had died.
All the food and money stored in Heifeng Village were piled up in the open space not far away, Cao Xu took a general look, took some belongings casually, and said: "Gather everyone together, divide these things equally, and then go down the mountain." The distribution of these possessions is enough for each of you to live a good life. ”
"Yes. The little minions were very excited, and immediately greeted, and some women, children, old and young, came out from behind the cottage, all with yellow faces and thin muscles. The life of the cottage is not easy, and the little minions are half full, and these women and children, old and young, are good if they stutter.
After dividing the belongings, most of the people in the Black Wind Village either traveled alone or in groups, and left quickly. However, there are still a small number of people who have the intention of leaving, and most of these people are women, children, old and young.
"Shaoxia, it's not that we don't want to leave, it's that we really don't have a place to go. The little minion Chen Er walked up to Cao Xu and explained, "Most of us were forced to have no choice, so we voted for Black Wind Village. ”
Cao Xu asked, "Then what are you going to do?"
"Over the years, we have reclaimed some farmland in the back mountains of Heifeng Village, although it is barren, but it can barely be regarded as a foothold. In addition to the property distributed, and then buy some farm tools and seeds, and build a village to protect themselves, they can still live. Please be gracious. As soon as Chen Er finished speaking, he knelt on the ground.
"Please be gracious to the young man. Then the others knelt down as well.
Looking at the people who fell to their knees, there were old people and children here, and they just wanted a way to live. Cao Xu was speechless for a while, these are all living people!
"Please be gracious to the young man. Chen Er's head slammed into the ground, his brains were broken, and blood seeped into the dirt.
"Arise, man has gold under his knees, and do not do this to himself. Cao Xu helped Chen Er up from the ground and said, "Everyone get up, you don't want to go down the mountain, and I don't force it, but if you do a business without capital in the future, don't blame me for being ruthless under the sword." ”
"Thank you, Shaoxia. ”
"Xie Shaoxia's great grace. ”
......
Words of gratitude came from behind him, and Cao Xu had already left the Black Wind Village.
