Chapter 234: Black Fox (1/5)

On the top of the low hill, a row of horse thieves stood side by side, about forty or fifty people, all of them were dressed in robes, hats, and black, and stood quietly on the low hill, staring coldly at the caravan tent under the low hill. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

According to Li Zheng, horse thieves generally do not act in the rain, but these horse thieves appear so quickly, so they should have been hidden nearby before the heavy rain fell, so they can appear so quickly.

Looking at the horse thief standing on the low hill, Li Zheng's brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

Although the grassland after the rain is wet and difficult to walk, those horse thieves on the low hill are forming a posture of swooping and oppressing the caravan under the low hill, which invisibly puts pressure on the caravan. Therefore, although Li Zheng has gone through various battles, and he has been prepared in his heart early in the morning, when he really faces these horse thieves, he is still inevitably a little nervous in his heart.

It was Xiao Suifeng, staring straight at those horse thieves, with a strange light in his eyes.

There are only forty or fifty horse thieves, and there will not be too powerful martial arts masters among them, so for Xiao Suifeng, who has basically recovered his strength at the moment, naturally there is not much threat, and what can really attract Xiao Suifeng's attention is naturally the dress of those horse thieves.

Before Xiao Suifeng left Shacheng, he had naturally inquired about the information of the black fox.

Horse thieves are outlaws who gather together for profit, so in this Wangshan Plain, even the most elite horse thieves are actually just a rabble, and the horse thieves under the black fox are naturally the same. And since it is a rabble, it is naturally impossible to have the uniform dress and standard weapons of the regular army.

The horse thieves under the black fox, compared to the rest of the horse thieves, although they are much stronger and more elite, but the weapons in their hands are also varied, and there is no shortage of swords, guns, swords, halberds, and the only difference is probably their dress.

The black fox's subordinates also do not have uniform clothes, but it is precisely because of the name of the black fox that most of the black fox's subordinates like to dress in black, so although the individual clothes are very different, but in terms of color, they are almost the same.

Xiao Suifeng had already said this in his heart, and at this moment, seeing that these horse thieves in front of him were all dressed in black, his heart naturally moved.

"Nine times out of ten, these horse thieves in front of me are the black fox's men. ”

When Xiao Suifeng was silently thinking in his heart, the horse thieves on the low hill, with the order of its leader, suddenly rushed down from the low hill one by one, but the speed of the rush was not so fast.

Li Zheng saw the speed of those horse thieves, and his heart couldn't help but relax slightly, but then he was full of energy, and glanced at the guards and the caravan around him.

The caravan leader and the ordinary coachmen and servants all hid in the tents in fear, while the guards hid behind the cart with strong bows and crossbows in their hands according to Li Zheng's original arrangement. And Li Zheng himself stared straight at the approaching horse thieves, seemingly ready to negotiate with those horse thieves.

Seeing that the horse thief was getting closer and closer, and when he was about to enter the range of the bow and crossbow in another hundred or ten steps, Li Zheng turned back to Xiao Suifeng and said, "The person who came should be the black fox's subordinate, but the black fox himself should not have come." Xiao Gongzi, I know that the purpose of your joining us is for the sake of the black fox, but please also ask Gongzi to look at the dozens of innocent lives in the entire caravan, don't act rashly, have any plans, and wait until the caravan's affairs here are over. ”

Li Zheng opened his mouth with a solemn face, looking straight into Xiao Suifeng's eyes.

Xiao Suifeng was slightly stunned when he heard Li Zheng say this, and then nodded silently. Xiao Suifeng naturally understood Li Zheng's worries, and was afraid that he would anger those horse thieves because of himself and implicate the entire caravan.

Although Xiao Suifeng thinks that he can't be regarded as a righteous gentleman, he is also the most disgusted with martial artists killing innocents, so naturally he will not do these things, the reason why he is with the caravan is just to better find the black fox, but he does not have the idea of sacrificing the caravan.

Seeing Xiao Suifeng nodding, Li Zheng glanced at Xiao Suifeng deeply, and said no more.

Although Li Zheng didn't know what Xiao Suifeng's martial arts realm was, he could also feel that Xiao Suifeng was definitely a real master, and the guards in the entire caravan combined might not be Xiao Suifeng's opponent alone. As the saying goes, the drum doesn't need to be beaten with a hammer, in this case, if Xiao Suifeng really cares about the Dao caravan, he will naturally not act rashly. And if Xiao Suifeng really didn't take this kind of life in the caravan in his eyes, even if he Li Zheng said more, the result would be the same.

So Li Zheng stopped, and when he turned back, he saw that the horse thieves were already close to the effective killing range of the strong bow and crossbow. These horse thieves also looked like experienced horse thieves, and after coming to this distance, they did not continue to move forward, and stopped one by one. Only one person stepped out of the column, slowly thinking about the location of the caravan's tent approaching.

The purpose of the horse thief to stop is also twofold, one is to show the caravan that he is willing to visit the caravan, and he does not mean to kill everything, as long as the caravan pays enough value according to the rules, they will naturally do it. As for the second, they are also unwilling to venture into the killing of the bow and crossbow.

For horse thieves, as long as they are killed, there is a risk of death. For the leader of the horse thieves, it may not be distressing to kill a few inconsequential horse thieves, but for the horse thieves who rush to the front, even the most crazy outlaws, can they really spare their lives at all? It is naturally better not to do anything to grab something without using your hands.

Li Zheng has always been worried about whether the horse thieves he encountered will be unruly, and in the same way, as horse thieves, they are naturally afraid of encountering a caravan that does not understand the rules.

Therefore, the group of horse thieves all stopped outside the range of the bow and crossbow, and only one person came forward to negotiate on behalf of the horse thieves.

Seeing a horse thief coming, Li Zheng glanced at his guards, took a deep breath, jumped over the barrier formed by the cart, and walked towards the horse thief alone.
