After getting off the main road, we walked across an ancient stone bridge.
Just before Xiao Han and others came within a hundred feet of the fortress, they heard the sound of "woo woo" horns and chaotic shouts from inside the fortress.
"Hey, you are treating us as villains!"
Liu Hongji, who was originally lagging behind, heard the movement, drove his horse forward a few steps, and lined up with Xiao Han, looking at the fortress in the distance with a smile.
When Xiao Han heard this, he shrugged indifferently.
Their current team is so strange, let alone the chaos here, even near Chang'an, it will probably cause a commotion.
"Jiayi! Come forward and tell me your identity!" Xiao Han waved his hand and motioned for Jiayi over there to come forward first and communicate with the people in the village to avoid any misunderstanding.
"Here!" When A saw this, he accepted the order, but before he could drive his horse forward, Liu Hongji suddenly stopped him: "Wait, it's idle anyway, I'd better go!"
"You?" Xiao Han glanced at Liu Hongji in surprise when he heard this.
Let this thing go? With his temper, he couldn't have finished three sentences before being greeted by others?
However, Liu Hongji didn't care about this. After he finished speaking, without waiting for Xiao Han's opinion, he just pressed the horse's belly and drove the horse forward directly.
"Hey..." Looking at Liu Hongji's back as he rushed out, Xiao Han only had time to open his mouth. Without even telling him to be careful, he saw several cold lights coming from the tall wall of the village. Shot down in the air!
"careful!"
Seeing those rays of cold light heading towards Liu Hongji, Xiao Han's heart suddenly jumped! Just when I was about to yell, remind Liu Hongji.
However, after crossing a distance of more than a hundred steps, those few cold lights were blown by the cross wind in the air, and they fell directly from the air and stuck diagonally into the ground in front of Liu Hongji.
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis. It's a hunting bow. It's not very powerful. It's hard to use against leather armor. For example, the steel armor on General Liu's body, even if he stood there and let him shoot, he would never be able to penetrate it."
In his ears, Jia Yi's low explanation came, and Xiao Han's heart that had just been hanging finally fell into his stomach.
It seems that he is a little fussy. A veteran like Liu Hongji, who has lived through many battles for the rest of his life, is probably hard to hurt even if he is faced with a serious bandit den, let alone a small civilian fort. he.
"Hey! Look clearly! Don't shoot blindly! I'm an officer and a soldier!"
At the front, unlike Xiao Han, Liu Hongji was not afraid of these arrows.
Tightening the reins and wandering around twice where the arrow landed, Liu Hongji shouted at the top of his voice at the wall of the village: "Where are the people in charge here? Come out and speak!"
Hearing Liu Hongji's roar, there was a commotion on the tall stockade wall. Then, someone was heard hiding behind the wall and shouting: "I don't care who you are! There is no food, no gold or silver in the stockade! Those who know better, leave quickly." , Otherwise, don’t blame us for being rude!”
"fart!"
Sure enough, Xiao Han was right as he thought, Liu Hongji was not suitable for negotiation at all! Seeing the people in the village being disrespectful again and again, Liu Hongji angrily cursed on the spot: "Fuck you motherfucker! I'm here to catch bandits! I'm not here to be a bandit! Open your eyes." Take a look with your eyes and see who those people we arrested are!"
When the people on the wall heard this, they showed no signs of weakness and continued to shout: "Who knows if you are deliberately playing a trick! Two days ago, Sunjiazhuangzi was tricked into opening the door by people like you and was robbed. It’s clean!”
"Sun Jia Zhuangzi?"
Later, when Xiao Han heard the shouts on the wall of the village, he immediately frowned and glanced back at the homeless thieves who were tied together.
As if they knew what Xiao Han was going to ask, the few homeless thieves caught by his gaze shuddered and shook their heads together: "I don't know about the Sun Family Village! I haven't been there either!"
"Never been there?" Xiao Han frowned even more tightly. If these people didn't lie, wouldn't it mean that besides this group of people, there were other groups of instigated refugees nearby?
If so, how many people and how many teams would there be! They were active there again. Why didn't I meet anyone after walking for two days?
"Ouch! I'm going!!!"
Just as Xiao Han was thinking hard in his heart, another sudden change occurred in front of Liu Hongji!
Seeing that he could not get rid of the people in the village, Liu Hongji was so angry that one Buddha ascended to heaven and two Buddhas were born. He jumped on his feet and started scolding the people on the wall of the village!
The people on the wall were not used to the bald bastard below at all. After a few curses, they actually launched a small trebuchet! Duotou threw a pile of pebbles over!
Did Liu Hongji expect that people in the village would throw stones? Caught off guard, he was hit by rocks like a goddess scattering flowers, making him run away with his head covered.
Xiao Han and others behind him only heard a clanking and pinging sound, and then saw Liu Hongji holding his head, lying on the horse and rushing back like a wind!
"Fuck! These grandsons are so evil!"
After finally escaping from the attack range of the trebuchet, Liu Hongji sneaked up and carried several bags, shouting curses at the fortress from a distance!
If he had known that these people were so ungrateful in martial arts and wouldn't even give him the respect of the General of the Seventeenth Guards, why would he rush forward to receive such a beating? Wouldn't it be better to let A go and suffer?
"Master Marquis, what should I do now?" Seeing Liu Hongji's embarrassed appearance, Jiayi couldn't laugh or get angry, so he could only keep a straight face and ask Xiao Han what to do next.
"What should I do? Salad!"
Xiao Han was also helpless. If at the beginning, he wanted to reveal his identity and have a good chat with the people in this fort about the situation nearby.
So after Liu Hongji's interference, the other party must have realized that they are not good people.
At this point, it’s probably useless to say anything! Even if the emperor comes in person, those people will stubbornly think that this is a thief pretending to be a thief, and maybe they will be stoned...
Xiao Han didn't want to try the feeling of being hit on the head by a stone, and he didn't have that much energy to explain things clearly to the people on the wall.
After taking one last look at the village, he decisively gave up on spending time here and turned around to leave without any trace of sloppiness.
And seeing that strange team leaving their fort, the people on the wall immediately burst into cheers like a roaring mountain and a tsunami!
It was as if what they had just defeated was the most vicious villain in the world.
