There is neither a temple nor a pond, just a slowly flowing river.
It now refers to a place name, a village where barbarians lived in the past, a village built entirely with stone walls. In front is Qingxi River and behind is Jinfo Mountain. It is really close to mountains and rivers. The entire mountain village is built layer by layer and is surrounded by stone walls. It can be said to be an impregnable natural city.
The village was originally inhabited by barbarians. Later, they were continuously squeezed by the government, and with the appearance of bandits, the barbarians disappeared. Now this place has become a famous place, because bandits often appear, so ordinary people naturally dare not approach it!
In the past few decades, this place can be said to be a cottage when there are bandits, and an empty city without bandits. In the past ten years, a group of people have suddenly arrived. There are usually four to five hundred people living there. It is really a big place. This place was originally under the jurisdiction of the Qing Dynasty. It was very close to a tributary of the Yangtze River, and this location was also quite special.
Foshan is also a place of boundaries, so there is usually nothing to do here, and there is also a team of dozens of people living here. Later, because there was a wild land behind Jinfo Mountain, wild beasts often appeared here, and the local government did not allow bandits to exist, so the team gradually disappeared.
Especially in the hands of the current emperor Meng Chang, there were still people living in the early days of peace, but later the government was corrupted and squeezed, and no one came to the valley here, except for ships passing by on the clear stream, or some caravans who had nothing to do. go through.
I don't know when, but hundreds of bandits gathered here again. The leaders were three people who claimed to be sworn brothers, known as the Three Dragons of Longtan. Their men had some skills and were able to defeat several waves of government suppression. Later, as the reputation gradually grew, the government also suffered several hidden losses. Seeing that they did not cause big troubles, they turned a blind eye. Fortunately, they were only called the Three Jiaos and were not so proud as to be called the Dragon. Otherwise, the Shu government would have sent heavy troops to sweep them away.
It just so happened that these three people also had some skills and knowledge. They would occasionally attack passing commercial ships, but they would let them pass if they paid the toll. The most important thing is to act alone, and sometimes even take action against wealthy households in the surrounding area.
People within a hundred miles often knew about the existence of this group of people, and by the time the government wanted to take action against them, there were already more than a thousand people. In the two surrounding prefectures and counties, when there were few people in the Longtan Temple, they could still be more powerful. Now that there are more people in the Longtan Temple, they don't dare to attack the Longtan Temple alone with their little strength. Instead, the three people under their command have become more powerful. The more they come, the more powerful they become.
Flags were flying around the temple today, and the Juyi Hall of the Shanzhai, which was called Longtan Temple by the Three Dragons of Longtan, was filled with heads of heads of all levels.
The three dragons of Longtan were sitting on the right hand of the head of the Juyi Hall, and on the left hand was a young man with a calm momentum. He looked majestic and mighty, and he looked to be no more than thirty years old. Even though he was dressed in ordinary linen clothes, he couldn't hide his ability and majesty. There was also a young man standing next to him, but this young man's eyes seemed to be closed. He stood beside him with his hands behind his back and ignored others. However, just standing there gave the impression that strangers should not approach him.
It is really strange that the owner of Longtan Temple sat in the guest seat, while a stranger sat in the main seat. Longtan Sanjiao didn't feel any discomfort at all. Instead, he looked at the young man sitting on his left hand with a smile. Under the hall was a large group of leaders who were making a fuss.
"Brother Xiao, when will our reinforcements arrive? Look at the reports from the brothers now. They entered Longtan Temple in three directions and wanted to kill our Longtan Temple at once!" The green-faced Jiao Shijia, the third of the three dragons in Longtan He opened his mouth impatiently, cupped his fist and saluted the young man on his left hand.
The young man on the left had a calm expression. He looked at the leader in the hall, then at the three brothers, and then said solemnly: "I must arrive today, otherwise a certain family would not let Mr. Sun go and get the head of the commander! Brothers, please be patient and make arrangements one by one. Brothers will strictly guard the dangerous points. Even if a fierce battle occurs, it must be inevitable. Everyone is prepared. As long as the reinforcements arrive, the time has come for us to unify the place!"
"Brothers are definitely not afraid. It's just that the person leading the army this time is said to be a subordinate of Yuzhou Defense Envoy Zhao Lang. This person's name is Wang Xun, and he is Zhao Lang's direct commander." Dujiao, the boss of Longtan Sanjiao Jiao Li Yuan said cautiously: "When a certain family served in the Shu Army in the past, I heard of this person's name. He is really a rare wise general in the Shu Army!"
The young man on the left looked at the young man standing next to him. The young man standing with his hands behind his back glanced at Sanjiao and said calmly: "The horse infantry commander of a certain family that hunted this time is Zhou Qi. It is indeed Zhao Lang's number one." A general is just a superficial view of a certain family. On the contrary, Wang Xun may really be a talented person in the Yuzhou army!"
The standing young man did not wait for others to speak, and then said: "And a certain family shot an arrow at him from a distance, and then a certain family lurked back, only to find out that this person was actually the first sect in Shu, a disciple of the Hell Sect. !" He saw the sitting young man frowning, as if he knew what he was thinking, and said: "Although Hell Sect sends disciples to join the world every three years, this person has been in the army for many years, and is probably an elder from the outer sect of Hell Sect. A disciple, so what if he is a core disciple, there is a certain family and a backer behind him to help Shichiro, so Shichiro doesn’t have to worry!”
The young man sitting there was Xiao Qilang, whom Yang Huai was rushing to join. After hearing what the young man beside him said, he quickly stood up and said to the leaders in the hall: "Brothers, let's listen to a certain family for now!" After calming down, they all looked here to wait for Xiao Qilang's arrangements.
"Go for it! Go for it! Go for it!" He waved the flagpole in his hand vigorously and roared with excitement on his face. The man rushed over first. The nearly three-foot-long flagpole was as thick as a child's arm, and the gun also had a spear head. The spear head was shaped like a rhombus and was actually five feet long. Although it was not a sharp spear head, it was like a sharp harvesting weapon in his hand.
Where the gun pointed, the body burst into pieces and blood splattered everywhere. There was no way to dodge the oncoming crowd, anyone who touched them would die immediately. The crowds who were escaping separately were overwhelming and pushed away many companions and comrades-in-arms. Everyone watched helplessly as the flagpole in the hands of this murderous god was harvested.
The bloody flags were fierce and the fishy wind was blowing into my nostrils. With a wave of his thick arm, the blood-stained flag was rolled up on the flagpole, like a blood-red stick with the thickness of an adult's arm. Hitting, picking, stabbing, hacking, and sweeping, all of a sudden it was like ghosts crying and wolves howling, and they were either killed or seriously injured.
