Chapter 94: Ride your horse up the mountain, ride your horse down the mountain
Chapter 94 Ride the horse up the mountain, ride the horse down the mountain
The snow in Changling County had already started to melt when Gu Qingci left. However, there are hundreds of thousands of mountains and ravines, but they are very high, a little higher than Beimo, and there are still many universities here.
Gu Qingci followed Zhang Dashan out of the door, the cold wind blew snowflakes on his face, making Gu Qingci feel a burst of cold, but it was only for a moment, the Nine Suns Magic Art is so powerful, it automatically swims around the body in the body, even if it is Sleep, it can be like this.
The cold wind is blowing, and the snow is fluttering. Walking in this small village, the world is already pure white, and occasionally a few trees can be seen in the snow field. The eyes of the villagers in the past are getting colder and colder.
Gu Qingci is not a nosy person, but he doesn't like horse thieves very much. Those who become thieves as soon as they get on the horse are actually the most cowardly and useless people in the world. Their cruelty is just a kind of weak heart. To cover up, so Gu Qingci looked down on horse thieves, and at the same time, he was also very curious about this kind of creature.
As it turns out, horse thieves are no different, just a bunch of thieves on horseback.
There is a relatively large open space in the middle of the small village. When Gu Qing resigned, there were already a lot of people here. After a rough look, almost every family came with a person, carrying food, and some of them were like Zhang Dashan. With wolf meat.
On the platform in the middle, there were more than 20 people carrying or carrying sabers, each of them was dressed thickly, but it would not affect their actions. The expressions and actions of these people could be seen to be fierce and imposing, and , Well-trained, definitely not an ordinary horse thief.
Everyone who came reported their name, and then lined up to hand over the family's monthly payment. A few horse thieves were in charge of checking the food, while another group led the horses and held knives to urge the villagers to hand over the food. It's very regular, this kind of practice of you coming and going makes Gu Qingci look confused.
A horse thief, who mounts a horse and becomes a thief, and slaughters the village with a knife, isn't this the portrayal of a horse thief? Why are these horse thieves so civilized?
"Damn," Gu Qingci muttered softly, "Even horse thieves keep up with the times?"
No wonder Gu Qingci was surprised. Whether it was known in the previous life or seen in this life, horse thieves are a group of inhuman and brutal existences. Wherever they pass, they are not crying everywhere, or when they are timid. A team of regular Soldiers can chase a large group of horse thieves and flee around.
It's just that the horse thieves he met today gave him the feeling that he saw the Beimo Iron Cavalry. The orders are forbidden, and they are relaxed. Moreover, each of them is imposing. Although the temperament of the grass bandit cannot be changed, it is definitely not weak. with any elite soldier.
"Grandma's," Gu Qingci looked at it carefully, and muttered, "Horse thieves are talented too!"
"What?" Zhang Dashan raised his head and asked in confusion, carrying the food on his shoulders, "Brother Gu, what are you talking about?"
"Well..." Gu Qingci looked at Zhang Dashan, and said casually, "Brother Zhang, where did these horse thieves come from? You just let them bully you?"
"Hush!" Zhang Dashan said cautiously: "Brother Gu, keep your voice down so that you don't get overheard." As he spoke, Zhang Dashan carefully looked at the horse thieves, heaved a sigh of relief, and then said quietly: "Brother Gu, these horse thieves They came from Niudong Mountain. They control dozens of villages in a radius of tens of miles. Avoid disaster!"
Gu Qingci frowned and said, "Aren't you going to report to the officials?"
"Report to the official?" Zhang Dashan shook his head, sighed, and said, "This is the Hundred Thousand Mountains. Where do we go to report to the official? To Daxia? Or Beimo, or Xining? No one cares, and if we report If you fail to be an official, but offend those mountain kings, that would be terrible. Last year, some people in Zhuangmatun discussed and resisted, and as a result, the entire village, hundreds of people, were massacred, leaving no one alive."
"So vicious!"
Gu Qingci's heart skipped a beat. Looking at the horse thieves, he involuntarily stretched out his right hand. When it touched the hilt of the sword, he hesitated for a moment, then retracted it.
He really wanted to kill. He had always looked down on horse thieves who oppressed the common people after getting something for nothing. What's more, he now knew that these horse thieves were so vicious.
Gu Qingci is not a good person. After all, he used to plot against two clans and gangs in order to survive, and thousands of people died indirectly at his hands. The common people, in **** battles, don't remember life and death.
Gu Qingci has never thought about whether he wants to be a good person or a bad person, because he only wants to be a person in this arena, and he can draw his sword if he is willing to draw his sword.
He wanted to draw his sword now, but he didn't, because he had his own considerations. He was not the kind of stupid young man who just entered the rivers and lakes. He slapped his **** and left after satisfying his vanity. , must be considered end to end.
"Snapped"
Just then, a loud slap sounded.
Gu Qingci raised his head, and saw a middle-aged man who was about the same age as Zhang Dashan was slapped to the ground by a horse thief, got up from the snow, with blood on the corner of his mouth.
The middle-aged man got up, but knelt down in front of the leader of the horse thief again, and begged in a low voice: "My lord, I beg you, please pay less this time. My husband is sick, so I will exchange all the food." The medicine is gone, really gone...I beg you..."
"Hmph," the horse thief leader snorted coldly, and said in a low voice, viciously: "I don't care how much you have, if you can't pay the food, then take your wife as the top, anyway, you are seriously ill and will die. Might as well let us be happy!"
As he spoke, the leader of the horse thieves beckoned, and two horse thieves came over immediately, and the leader said: "Go, take him home, and bring me his wife!"
"No way," the middle-aged man walked two steps on his knees, hugged the leader's thigh, and cried and begged, "Your Majesty, you can't...I beg you..."
"Boom"
The leader kicked the middle-aged man away and smashed it to the ground. Before the middle-aged man could get up, the horse thief leader pulled out a saber, walked up to the middle-aged man, and put it on his neck. , shouted: "Damn it, if you don't pay the food, and the woman doesn't give it, how about you give it to me?"
Heavy breathing sounded from the field. All the villagers watched nervously, but no one dared to move. Everyone just watched, and some hid aside.
It's not that they are cold-blooded, but that they are timid.
Gu Qingci's eyes were fixed, he held the hilt of the sword with his backhand, and was about to kill. Just as he was about to draw the sword, Zhang Dashan next to him suddenly shouted:
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please be merciful. I will give you the food he sent. I have half a wolf in my house. I will bring it to you. Can Your Majesty spare my brother!"
