In a dilapidated house, a group of big men gathered in a circle.
"Brother, since the arrival of those birdmen, there have been fewer passers-by around here. If this continues, everyone will be drinking from the northwest wind!"
"Yes, brothers, I haven't smelled the smell of meat for a long time. How about we run away too?"
"A good man doesn't suffer the consequences of his life, brother!"
This group of men talked to each other and complained to the leader. The leader is not a strong man, and is even a little thin, but he is very loyal and the brothers all respect him.
"It's really not an option to continue like this. Tell me, where should we go?" The leader asked everyone for their ideas.
All the men came up with ideas all over the place. Some said to go to Nanhuai, and some said to go to Dingliao. There were different opinions, but one thing was the same: Donglu really couldn't stay any longer!
While everyone was discussing, a young boy, about thirteen or fourteen years old, ran outside the door: "Big brother, big brother, we are here to buy and sell. A boy and a girl!"
The eldest brother suddenly stood up, and the bench was overturned to the ground: "Is there an old melon? More or less?"
"Huh? Lao Gua?" The young boy scratched his head and couldn't understand.
A strong man next to him slapped him on the back of the head: "It's just money, why can't you remember it?"
"Ah, yes! Yes! I took a look and saw a lot of banknotes!" the young man reported quickly.
"Walk!"
The eldest brother raised his arms and waved. Dozens of men inside and outside the house were overjoyed when they heard this. Everyone followed him with a smile on his face. There were only two of them and many banknotes. This was simply a free gift.
On the official road not far away, Guan Chenzi and Xue Mang kept their distance. The two of them occupied almost the entire official road, one on the left and the other on the right. If it weren't for the Taoist robes on Guan Chenzi's body that were too conspicuous, the two of them would have looked like a pair of angry couples. Young couple.
"Are you here?" Guan Chenzi asked Xue Mang.
Xue Mang stretched out his hand to pinch it and said with a smile: "Here they come, there are dozens of them."
"That's good." Guan Chenzi nodded.
"Senior Sister Guanchenzi, although Zhenyangshan does not specialize in numerology, she does know some Bagua Yao skills. You don't do divination on weekdays?" Xue Mang asked curiously.
Guan Chenzi chuckled and said: "Since it has been destined for a long time, what is the use of cultivating? If it is not destined...what is the use of cultivating?"
Xue Mang was dumbfounded, then smiled bitterly and said: "Haha, senior sister, I can't say anything about you, Zhenyang Mountain is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon..."
Guan Chenzi's smile suddenly faded: "Here we go, this is the third batch today."
"Well, the more people the better, senior sister, let's go and let them follow before we go to the next one!"
Xue Mang and Guan Chenzi used Qinggong, and the next moment they were already a hundred steps away.
"Brother, these young couple ran too fast. They hadn't even passed this fork just now. Why did they run ahead at this moment?" The young boy scratched his head in confusion.
The leading brother turned his head back, and a younger brother understood, patted the horse and hurried back. After a while, he patted the horse and rushed back: "Brother, that's right, the people from the Huxiao Gang are following!"
"Hmph, I knew it! Such a piece of fat only appeared in half a month. Everyone around here must be watching! Chase, don't let the duck fly away!" After the lead brother finished speaking, he took the lead in chasing after the horse, and a group of younger brothers cheered. Ladi followed behind.
Yi Xiaodao taught him a clever trick at night, and it was this trick that "lured" the tiger to swallow the wolf, causing Xue Mang and Guan Chenzi to deliberately expose their money near Richeng, inducing the surrounding gangs to take action, and lured all the gangs into Richeng. Cause riots, and finally fish in troubled waters.
Xue Mang was originally worried that Yi Xiaodao's "all belongings" were too shabby and would be looked down upon by the nearby mountain kings. Who knew that because of the Wanyan Sect, the people of Richeng could not escape and walk away, but the nearby gangs They had stopped eating a long time ago. At this time, they didn’t care about the abundance of meat and the lack of meat, so they came in droves.
Xue Mang and Guan Chenzi were attracting gangsters everywhere outside the city, but Yi Xiaodao was alone and arrived outside Richeng early in the morning.
There were no guards in Richeng. When the county officials fled, they took away a large number of government sergeants. The rest were unwilling to leave their hometown and left the government offices to go home.
Yi Xiaodao found a bamboo hat in a house outside the city, put it on his head, rolled up his trousers, stepped on the mud, pretended to be a farmer, and walked toward the city humming a tune.
"Little baby, what are you doing here? Where are your parents?" As soon as Yi Xiaodao entered Richeng, he saw a little girl about six or seven years old, standing by the door biting her finger.
"An uncle...gave me candy and asked me to...wait for someone here." The little girl was a little shy, but she still answered Yi Xiaodao's question.
Yi Xiaodao smiled kindly: "Who are you waiting for? Go home quickly, it's so dangerous to be alone outside."
The little girl tilted her head and said in a sweet voice, "Wait... um... call me Yi Xiaodao."
Yi Xiaodao's smile suddenly froze on his face. He was stunned for a moment, squatted down and asked, "Waiting for Yi Xiaodao? What are you waiting for him to do?"
The little girl looked at Yi Xiaodao without saying anything. Yi Xiaodao took out the dry food bag from his arms, grabbed a big cake and said to the little girl: "Tell brother, can he give you a cake?"
The little girl took her fingers out of her mouth and tried to reach out but then retracted her hand and wiped it on her clothes: "Okay! The uncle asked me to tell Yi Xiaodao, 'Go back quickly and don't suffer any unforeseen disaster'!" After that, His eyes were fixed on the pie in Yi Xiaodao's hand.
Yi Xiaodao murmured to himself: "Go back quickly, don't suffer any disaster..."
"Brother, cake..." the little girl said timidly.
Only then did Yi Xiaodao come to his senses, handed the pie to the little girl, and said with a gentle smile: "Go home quickly, I am Yi Xiaodao, and I have already brought your words."
The little girl looked up at Yi Xiaodao, her big eyes blinking. Seeing that Yi Xiaodao didn't seem to be lying, she nodded vigorously: "Well! Then brother, I'm leaving!"
Yi Xiaodao looked at the little girl jumping and running away, feeling hesitant in his heart.
"You knew I would come a long time ago? These sects that specialize in mystical arts are really good at pretending. Is it really true or do they want me to retreat in the face of difficulties?"
Yi Xiaodao stood by the city gate and pondered for a long time, but he had no idea. Fortunately, there were no pedestrians at the city gate at this time, so he didn't look out of place.
"No matter what, you can't be scared away by someone else's words." Yi Xiaodao gritted his teeth and walked towards the city.
After walking for a while, there were more pedestrians on the street, but compared to the city gate, it was still pitiful compared to other towns.
"Excuse me...where is the Yamen?" Yi Xiaodao stopped a man carrying a hoe.
"Yamen? Why are you still going there? The county magistrate has already left." The man said and was about to leave.
Yi Xiaodao stopped the man again and asked, knowingly: "Brother, why is the county magistrate gone? I came to see the county magistrate for comment. I live outside Richeng, which is a bit remote, so I don't know the situation in the city. This A few days ago, a lot of people came to Zhuangzi, forcing us to work and even beating people. I’m here to sue the officials!”
"Sue an official? Haha, you can't sue this official! Those are the people of the Wanyan Sect, and the county magistrate was driven away by them. You still sue the official?" The man smiled contemptuously, not knowing whether he was laughing at the county magistrate. Incompetence is still Xiaoyi Xiaodao's "ignorance".
"The county magistrate has driven away? Who is this Wan Yanzong helping?" Yi Xiaodao asked pretending to be surprised.
"What kind of platform are they going to build? They say it's to help us live a good life, but they make us work without being paid, and they also take away all the food in the city. They say it's a unified distribution. Isn't this nonsense? I handed over forty kilograms of grain to my family and got twenty kilograms in exchange. Where do you want me to go..." The man suddenly fell silent and left in a hurry.
While Yi Xiaodao was wondering, an old man wearing simple linen clothes and carrying a sword behind his back walked quickly towards Yi Xiaodao: "Yi Xiaodao?"
Yi Xiaodao saw the old man carrying a sword behind him and confessed to himself again. His heart beat wildly: "No, I am a farmer from an unknown village outside the city. I..."
"Oh, you are not Yi Xiaodao, how do you know that Yi Xiaodao is a personal name?" The old man pointed out the flaw in Yi Xiaodao's words.
Yi Xiaodao saw that he couldn't cover himself up, so he grabbed the bamboo hat on his head and threw it at the old man, turned around and ran away.
The old man gently flicked his sleeves, and the bamboo hat was brushed aside by the old man before he got close: "Huh, what a cunning boy! What other tricks can you come up with?"
Yi Xiaodao was afraid that the old man would chase him, so he ran from the city to the city gate in one breath. He held on to the notice board on the city side and gasped: "It was so dangerous, I almost got caught..."
"If I really want to arrest you, you won't be able to reach this city gate. Wan Yanzong Dou Qin, I would like to send you off to Master Yi." On the city wall, a middle-aged woman was dressed in red. Her appearance was pretty, and her charm was still there. Sitting cross-legged on the wall, overlooking Yi Xiaodao under the city gate.
Yi Xiaodao was immediately discouraged when he saw that he had been completely exposed. The information was not found out at all, and the other party knew his whereabouts very well, chasing him around like a rat crossing the street.
"The heroine looks really good in this body. Let's talk about it. Can we stop locking the dragon energy?" Yi Xiaodao asked, raising his head.
"Don't worry about things you shouldn't." Dou Qin replied coldly.
Yi Xiaodao still didn't give up: "Dragon Qi, no one can explain it, but there must be a reason for the creation of heaven and earth. Manpower cannot violate heaven! Going against heaven is not in line with the purpose of your sect. Yes or no…"
Dou Qin seemed to have received an order a long time ago not to take action against Yi Xiaodao. No matter how much Yi Xiaodao nagging, he just ignored it and his beautiful eyebrows furrowed deeper and deeper.
Yi Xiaodao raised his head and babbled for a long time. When he saw that the woman didn't pay attention, he had no choice but to rub his sore neck and muttered: "It's really a joke..." After that, he walked helplessly out of the city.
When Dou Qin noticed that Yi Xiaodao was leaving, she spread her beautiful eyebrows, stood up on the city wall, glanced at Sun City, and saw nothing unusual, then walked down the stairs to the city wall.
As soon as he stepped off the city wall, he saw Yi Xiaodao running towards the city shouting: "It's over, it's over! Why did I forget this? Heroine, run!"
Dou Qin saw Yi Xiaodao running towards him. Before he could stop him, Dou Qin passed him by and ran away.
"What kind of wind does this kid...have?" Dou Qin was confused and was about to get up to chase after him, but heard the sound of horse hooves outside the city.
Dou Qin turned around and looked outside the city. He saw a vast darkness. Horses of various colors and decorations were running towards him from a distance. Some of them were even shirtless. In this winter...
"This is..." Dou Qin took a closer look and realized that these were powerful gangsters from nearby, and she knew many of them...
"Stop!" Dou Qin flew back up the city wall, "What are you doing here!?"
Dou Qin responded with shouts and curses: "Chase me, big guy, don't let this piece of fat get away!"
"You whale-killing gang are so unkind! With the strength of their numbers, these two are going to rob?"
"The Canglang people are not good people! They are still putting horse tacks on the road! Today it is you but not me!"
This large group of bandits shouted to each other and rushed towards the gate of Richeng. In front of the group of bandits, a man and a woman were practicing Qinggong and trying their best to move on.
"Why did we attract so many people!" Guan Chenzi said angrily.
"Master Yi's entire property... is too valuable..." Xue Mang smiled bitterly.
