Mentioning the Qi family, Zhang Yi gave Zhang Jian a task.
Let Zhang Jian prepare to go to the county town with gifts.
One and a half months later it will be the birthday of his maternal ancestor General Weiyuan Qi Yi.
Of course, Zhang Jian was asked to rush there in advance with several tasks, one of which was to suppress bandits.
Zhang Yi said: "There has always been a group of thieves living on Fengwei Mountain between Fengxi and Lingyang. This is one of the two main roads that must be passed from Fengxi to Lingyang. They often plunder caravans and harass the people here. They burned and killed countless people. My father planned to wait until the situation in Fengxi stabilized before he could free his hands and wipe out them. You are going to the county this time, so you can simply lend a helping hand to your fourth uncle. My father will allocate five hundred soldiers to you. You took advantage of the situation and killed them!"
"Five hundred soldiers are brave?"
Zhang Jian blinked. He wanted to say no, but he held it back for a moment. He understood Zhang Yi's intention, which was to let him lead the troops and accumulate prestige in the private army.
As the future head of the family, how could he conquer these warriors without leading troops?
Zhang Jian immediately agreed. With the help of these private soldiers, many things would be convenient.
Zhang Yi mentioned another purpose. This second purpose was to go on a blind date, to meet several younger sisters in advance, so as to satisfy Qi's wishes, so that Qi's thoughts would not be missed all the time.
…
But before he was about to leave, Zhang Jian still followed the rules and found a funeral shop in the west alley of the city and bought a lot of gold ingots to prepare for sacrifice.
Zhang Jian searched several stores, and he found that compared to paper-man Zhang, these funeral stores were obviously more "perfunctory". It wasn't that the goods were inferior, but that they lacked "innovation".
Zhang Jian misses the paper man Zhang a little bit.
It's a pity that Zhang Ji's paper-making shop has been reduced to scorched earth, the paper figurines have disappeared, and now even the land has been temporarily taken back by the Yamen.
Along with the loads of cinnabar banknotes and cinnabar ingots were ignited in the clan temple, all burned up, and Zhang Jian turned around and left.
The next day, Zhang Jian set out bravely with 500 soldiers, accompanied by Zhang Kui and Jian Yao.
The group went straight to Fengwei Mountain on the edge of Shuangfeng Mountain Range.
At this time, Zhang Jian had a small milky white ball deep in his spiritual consciousness.
This is the treasure that the "ancestors" gave back last night.
To be precise, it looks like a 'toy'!
The ball of spiritual consciousness of all worlds can strengthen the soul and understand the language of all things.
This thing looks a bit tasteless to Zhang Jian.
He once used the Universal Spiritual Sense Ball to eavesdrop on the communications between the beasts, but most of the beasts were ignorant and had only instincts and no intelligence, so they were of little use at all.
But with this thing around, you don’t have to worry about not being able to understand foreign languages...
Thinking of this, Zhang Jian looked a little weird.
…
Fengwei Mountain is located on the southwest side of the Shuangfeng Mountains, at the tail of Xiongfeng Mountain. It has steep mountains and dangerous terrain, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.
It is also a good place to build a stronghold to avoid being pursued by the government. There have always been refugees, and bandits have fled here, causing harm to the two counties.
Because of its status as the junction between the two counties, the two counties have been unable to work together and have been unable to annihilate this place.
At this time, a group of bandits were noisily drinking in the village. The long table was filled with preserved fruits, fish, pheasants, hares, and many game animals. He was holding women with numb faces and disheveled clothes.
At this time, a bold voice was heard from below: "Brother, we have done a really good job on this one. Not only did we get a lot of gold and silver, but we also got a lot of women. Thanks to eldest brother's good leadership, brothers, I I must give you a bowl of wine later!"
The person who spoke was a very tall and strong man with a strong back and leopard's eyes. He was Zhang Bao, the third leader of the swarm, and he was also second only to the leader Song Heihu in terms of strength among the swarm.
The second master, the white-faced fox, was dressed in white clothes and had a thin figure. He stood up with a flattering smile on his face.
"My eldest brother is born extraordinary and has great ambitions. Where are you now? The good times have just begun. When eldest brother integrates other refugees in Shuangfeng Mountain, maybe we can also take over the surrounding counties. The gold, silver, wealth, and beauty of those wealthy families Women are the true symbol!”
Sitting on the tiger-skin Taishi chair, Song Heihu looked around at the many gangsters and laughed loudly: "Don't worry, everyone, when I finish cleaning the Shuangfeng Mountains and free my hands, these things in front of me will not matter. Your good days are still behind!"
A group of gangsters were inspired by Song Heihu, all of them had blazing eyes filled with greed and desire. Many of the gangsters were so moved that they tore the girls' clothes directly.
When Song Heihu saw this scene, he didn't feel dissatisfied, but showed pleasure in his eyes.
At this moment, a sudden gust of cold wind swept over, blowing the torch in the hall and extinguishing it.
When Song Heihu saw this scene, his expression changed and he stood up suddenly, only to see screams coming from outside the hall.
When everyone saw this horrific scene, they were a little overwhelmed and trembling for a while.
Just then, a figure holding a cloth banner slowly walked in outside the hall. He was surrounded by an invisible layer of blood. On the contrary, many gangsters looked behind him with greatly changed expressions. Two green-faced and fanged figures jumped up and down and stood behind him.
I saw a few big characters on the banner.
Able to know good and bad fortune, determine success or failure, rise or fall!
The figure holding the banner with his fingers opened his mouth, but two fangs were exposed in his mouth. He swept through the crowd, and under his eyes, the group of tough gangsters all had stiff faces and did not dare to move. Finally, his eyes fell on the tiger-skin Taishi chair. The figure said with a hoarse smile: "Are you Song Heihu?"
"Who are you?"
Facing this situation, Song Heihu trembled for a moment. The courage and pride all over his body disappeared silently at this moment, and the veins in the hand holding the weapon could not help but be exposed.
The black-clothed hexagram master smiled and said: "Master Song, I see that there is evil between your eyebrows today, dark clouds are covering your head, and your fortune is extremely bad and will lead to early death. I have some good advice here, do you want to listen?"
Several other gangsters heard this and looked at each other, all looking at Song Heihu. Song Heihu's face was gloomy, but when he saw the two monsters behind the black-clothed hexagram master opening their bloody mouths, he hurriedly said: "I want to listen! I want to listen! "
"smart people"
The black-clothed fortune teller nodded.
Although he nodded, his figure flashed, as if he had collapsed directly in front of Song Heihu. Like thunder and lightning, he strangled Song Heihu's neck with one hand. The force was so strong that Song Heihu was shocked and couldn't break free. Yi Gua Master grabbed a centipede from his sleeve and stuffed it into his mouth.
…
At this time, on the official road of Shuangfeng Mountain, Zhang Jian and his party were also marching in a hurry. After a period of running-in, and with Zhang Kui's intentional guidance, Zhang Jian quickly understood some details of leading troops.
I have to say that having elders in the family can indeed save many unnecessary processes.
Just when they arrived at Fengwei Mountain, Zhang Jian suddenly reined in the reins and looked up at Zhang Kui and Jian Yao, only to see two goshawks flying by in the sky, nothing unusual.
Instead, Zhang Jian heard a different message through the Ten Thousand Realms Spiritual Knowledge Pearl in his body.
"It's so scary, so scary, leave now!"
