Xiangzhou!
Martial arts heroes gathered together.
Merchants and wealthy merchants arrived one after another.
"What happened? Why are there so many people from all walks of life?"
"Look, that's the leader of Black Wind Village, Yue Feng. There are thousands of people in his village."
"And the young master of Qihai Village, Mo Jie, a young hero."
"Don't look at it, even our richest man in Xiangzhou is here, they poor guys are nothing."
Outside the inn.
The people pointed at the characters in the inn.
Occasionally, I would see an arrogant person being thrown out and secretly laugh.
"You don't know yet, right?"
"I heard that Dr. Wei's wife was kidnapped by bandits, and these people came to help." Someone explained.
"Mr. Wei, which Mr. Wei?"
"Who else? Apart from Wei Shuyu, the head of the Ministry of Commerce, who else is worthy of our richest man in Xiangzhou waiting here in person?"
"The son of Minister Wei?"
Hearing this, the people were shocked.
Wei Shuyu's deeds have gradually spread throughout the Tang Dynasty.
But the news of his dismissal has not yet reached Xiangzhou.
"Mr. Wei is in charge of the Ministry of Commerce. We can understand those merchants coming."
"What are these charlatans doing here?"
Someone asked in confusion.
"You don't understand this..."
"A person in the world of martial arts is also short of money. He supports so many people under his command. How can he survive without a good way to make money?"
"Tell me about the leader of Black Wind Village, do you think he wants to occupy the mountain and become the king?"
"It's not because I can't survive anymore that I became a bandit."
"Now, as long as you get involved with Dr. Wei and give him some money through your fingers, it will be enough for the entire Black Wind Village to have enough food and clothing."
Wow.
When everyone heard it, they realized that was really the case.
At the end of the Sui Dynasty, wars broke out among the heroes.
Many people who could not survive fell into the trap of bandits.
After the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, although some bandits were subdued and eliminated, it was inevitable that some people were unwilling to accept the recruitment of the Tang Dynasty.
"Magistrate Liu is here."
As a voice sounded, everyone was shocked.
Even the county magistrate is here, so this is interesting.
The scene of officials and gangsters sitting at the same drinking table is exciting to think about.
"I've met Magistrate Liu."
In the inn, everyone clasped their fists at Liu Chun.
"You're welcome..."
Liu Chun smiled and clasped his fists, his eyes glancing at the eyes of the leader of Black Wind Village and the others.
"Everyone came here for the same purpose today, to rescue Mrs. Wei."
The voice changed: "I wonder if you have any news?"
Everyone remained silent.
Can the news be said casually?
That was something in exchange for Wei Shuyu's favor!
"I wonder if there is any news about the leader of Yue Village?"
Seeing no one answered, Magistrate Liu looked at Yue Feng.
I can't control others, but I can't control you, a bandit?
"No!" Yue Feng said with a cold face.
"Master of Yue Village."
Liu Chun still smiled and said: "I am here mainly for Mrs. Wei's affairs. If you cannot provide useful information, I will have reason to suspect that you have come to Xiangzhou to plot evil."
Oops.
Is this a threat?
Everyone couldn't help but watch the show.
"Are you threatening me?" Yue Feng's face was filled with murderous intent.
"I am an official and you are a thief!"
Liu Chun continued to threaten: "Is it okay if I arrest you?"
Yue Feng's face suddenly turned cold.
Holding the blade in his hand, he had the urge to directly take Liu Chun hostage and escape!
"Mr. Wei is here."
Just then, a voice sounded outside the door.
After hearing this, everyone rushed towards the city gate.
The two snorted coldly, and then left one after another.
The city gate.
Wei Shuyu was dressed in black and riding a horse.
Next to him, Xue Rengui was carrying Fang Tian's painted halberd and dressed in an extremely showy white robe.
People in Xiangzhou took a closer look...
'Mr. Wei' is indeed extremely handsome.
County Magistrate Liu trotted forward, cupped his fists and saluted Xue Rengui: "I have seen Dr. Wei."
Dr. Wei? Call me?
Xue Rengui, who had just dismounted, was stunned.
"I'm not Wei Shuyu."
Xue Rengui pointed at Wei Shuyu: "He is the one."
"..."
All of a sudden.
A flock of crows floated over the entire Xiangzhou City.
After preparing carefully for so long, I dug a hole for myself at the beginning and buried myself.
Magistrate Liu glared at Xue Rengui fiercely.
You said you are a little soldier, why are you wearing such a sexy bag?
Don't know how to measure, and take over the guest spot...
You deserve to be a soldier.
Just thinking about it...
An army of thousands of people marched in the distance.
"The last general has met General Xue." The leading soldier ran to Xue Rengui and clasped his fists.
Damn it.
It turns out you are also a big shot.
Magistrate Liu wanted to kill him with a piece of tofu.
Just now...General Xue probably didn't see me glaring at him, right?
"Can you find out anything about the Wu family's daughter?" Xue Rengui said expressionlessly.
"General, please forgive me. There is no news yet."
The general clasped his fists in shame and said, "But what is certain is that he is still in Xiangzhou City."
Xue Rengui nodded.
After Wu Qiqi was kidnapped, Xue Rengui ordered the city to be closed.
Only in and out.
But this is not a long-term solution. One or two days will be fine, but over time, civil unrest may occur.
"Let's go to the city first."
Wei Shuyu suddenly spoke.
A group of people marched into the city.
Magistrate Liu wanted to talk, but when he thought that he had recognized the wrong person, he was embarrassed to the core.
Especially the expression on Wei Shuyu's face that said he should keep away from strangers, which dissuaded him from any idea of talking.
But just at this moment...
A rough man blocked the way.
"Master of the Black Wind Village, Yue Feng has met Langzhong Wei." Yue Feng cupped his fists and said.
"What's the matter?"
Wei Shuyu frowned.
"If you go back to Wei Langzhong, I know who did the robbery of Ying Guogong." Yue Feng replied respectfully.
"who?"
Only then did Wei Shuyu take a serious look at the other party.
"He's from Menghu Village."
Bandits?
Wei Shuyu couldn't help but frown.
"Where is the Tiger Village?"
"How is the strength?"
"Have you ever committed any crime?"
Seeing Wei Shuyu asking, Yue Feng felt happy.
As long as the other party is willing to chat, it means that the other party does not care about his identity as the leader of Black Wind Village.
"Mr. Wei."
Back to what Langzhong Wei said: "The Tiger Village is located on Shannan Road. There are three masters in the village. The first master is good at using spears, the second master is good at using large ring swords, and the third master is good at using large rings..."
"Let's get to the point!"
Seeing Yue Feng start to explain endlessly, Wei Shuyu interrupted displeasedly.
"Yes Yes Yes……"
Yue Feng wiped his forehead with his sleeve in fear.
Wei Shuyu is not very young, but the pressure he puts on others is particularly permeable...
"There are about two thousand people in Menghu Village, including the old, weak, women and children."
"They mainly make a living by looting and collecting tolls."
Wei Shuyu pondered.
A village with two thousand people can be considered a medium-sized village.
If you want to attack it, you must send out troops.
The most important thing is the group of old, weak, women and children.
After attacking, should we resettle or kill?
These cottages that survived the late Sui Dynasty were not so much bandits.
It would be better to say that they are a larger village.
"Mr. Wei."
Just as he was thinking about it, another handsome young man walked up.
"I, Qi Haizhuang, Mo Jie, also have something to report..."
"explain!"
"According to the investigation by people in my village, that group of people should be hiding in the Yunhu Street area."
"What's the basis?"
"this……"
Mojie hesitated.
Because some things are not easy to say in public, and if you say it, it will be unethical.
"Come forward..."
Wei Shuyu waved.
Mo Jie then stepped forward and whispered beside Wei Shuyu: "We provide the weapons in Menghu Village, and their den is there."
Wei Shuyu frowned.
This message is a bit too general.
"The young Shen Kang of Xiangzhou has met Dr. Wei."
While he was deep in thought, the richest man in Xiangzhou came up to him again.
"What's the matter with you?"
"If we go back to Mr. Wei, I also think those people are hiding near Yunhu Street."
"What's the basis?"
"There are a lot of people in that group, and they need to deal with food, drink, and diarrhea..."
Shen Kang analyzed seriously: "In the past two days, a group of outsiders have been purchasing coarse grains near Yunhu Street."
"The younger one sent people to follow him, but he was abandoned by them."
Wei Shuyu was basically determined.
Wu Qiqi should be near Yunhu Street.
