Super System in Chutang

Chapter 199: Stockade

In front of the village, a big man with a black face and garb stood there. When he saw someone coming, he whistled.

The gate of the village opened with a creak, and not long after, a few scarred men came out swinging with whistle sticks. Their mouths were full of fishy smell, their faces were ferocious, and they laughed hoarsely: "Tsk, tsk, there's another business!"

Just as he was talking, Hu Saner came closer with a group of business travelers.

"Oh, it turns out it's Hu San'er. Didn't you say you're not going to be a businessman anymore? Why are you here again? Could it be that your wife took away the family property and ran away with someone else?" The big man at the head recognized Hu San'er in the queue.

He immediately started to joke in nonsense words.

Li Linzhi, who was standing next to Li Xingzhi, saw several big men with cross-faced faces coming out with sticks, thinking that bandits were coming to the door. Hearing the dirty words of the big men, he felt angry and wanted to kill them with a swipe at his waist.

Li Xingzhi looked at the lack of alertness of the people around him and knew that the person coming was not a disaster.

He looked at the swaying girl next to him, held her whip-wielding hand, and shook his head slightly.

He rarely wanted to experience an ordinary person's life, but he didn't want to be disturbed by Li Linzhi. Besides, if he beat this big man to vent his anger today, the big man would definitely record the crime on Hu San'er, which was not what he wanted.

Li Linzhi looked at Li Xingzhi shaking his head, feeling quite annoyed and frustrated.

Li Xingzhi knew that she was a master of kung fu and had never had a chance to show it. He just saw the opportunity and didn't pay much attention to it. He stood aside and just watched what happened.

Hu San'er, who was at the front of the queue, had been working for many years and had heard a lot of nonsense, but he didn't care. He cupped his fists and said, "It's Mr. Jiao. Originally, I wasn't planning on making this trip again, but I couldn't stand my nephew."

If he wants to come out and have a look, I will take him out to see him, so as not to be blind in the future."

As he spoke, he took out a big gourd from his waist and threw it over.

Jiao Er took the gourd and felt it was heavy. He shook it and there was no sound. It seemed that the gourd was full.

He untied the cork, sniffed it with great enjoyment, took a sip, and carefully plugged it back in. His gloomy face instantly became brighter.

"Only you, Hu San'er, want it!"

Jiao Er waved his hand, and the people behind him got out of the way, and the dozen or so people still passed. Hu San'er walked at the back, watching the people and mules pass by, took off a jingling cloth bag from his waist, and threw it to Jiao Er.

, and then followed him through the cliff village.

The three of them, Li Xingzhi, were covered in the middle. Watching Hu San'er's interactions, they realized that they were bandits collecting tolls.

Li Linzhi, who wanted to cause some trouble, was disappointed in the end. The road was smoother than expected. The bandit men in the village greeted Hu Saner and his gang from time to time, and they said hello and chatted for a few words. There were also a few children who were happy.

Come around and buy some stuff.

However, they may still have some concerns. Even though it was getting late, the group of people took the lead and left the village. They walked for more than half an hour before setting up camp.

After dinner, the sky became darker, and the howling of wolves and the cries of apes were heard endlessly, mixed with the cry of jackals from time to time. The originally green mountain forest suddenly became dark and miserable, with spies and monsters running rampant, and ferocious beasts roaming around, baring their teeth.

Eat meat, stare and bleed!

The three of them, Li Xingzhi, had been traveling in the mountains for nearly a month. How could they be afraid of ghosts crying like wolves? Even the most timid Zhou Rou'er was breathing steadily at this time and gradually fell asleep.

In late summer and early autumn, the weather gets hotter and hotter.

But at night, the autumn moon turned cold.

The cold white moon has risen to the zenith, and the originally lively mountains and forests have gradually become quiet. The wolves howling, the apes howling, and the mountain insects, snakes, and birds seem to have fallen asleep.

At the foot of the Nameless Mountain, the fire was about to go out, and two big men were sleeping next to it.

At this time, the sound of footsteps sounded and gradually faded away.

Li Xingzhi, who was lying on the ground, suddenly opened his eyes. Without bending his feet, he stood upright like a zombie. He gently opened the curtain, his ears moved, but the soles of his feet did not move, and the stool floated out like a ghost, stepping on it.

There was no sound at all on the grass or branches.

The mountain breeze was slightly cool, chilling his bones, making his whole body feel refreshed.

He looked at the two black figures not far away, slowly hanging behind them.

The two black figures walked back along the mountain road without any delay or slowness. After a while, they returned to the village again.

They knocked a few times in front of the village gate. Not long after, a big man opened the village door with a curse. After waiting for a while, dozens of men in armor were armed with swords and sticks, full of murderous intent, led by two black figures.

, all the way down the mountain.

Li Xingzhi felt relieved when he saw this.

He moved his feet and was about to kill these people directly, but as soon as his thoughts changed, he stopped again and no longer cared about those big men full of evil spirits.

People are like a breeze, drifting back.

Li Xingzhi stood in front of the shed, opened the curtain, and faced a pair of angry eyes that shone brightly in the darkness.

"snort!"

The girl had already woken up, and when she saw no one around her, she knew that Li Xingzhi had found something interesting, so she went out alone.

"Why did you wake up? It's okay to wake up Rou'er too. There's trouble coming."

Li Xingzhi was not embarrassed either. He looked at those people coming over and knew that he had not had a good sleep, so he naturally wanted to wake them up so that he could be prepared.

"trouble?"

The girl looked at Li Xingzhi's unconcerned look and knew that they were just some petty thieves and there was no danger. However, even this could excite her.

Immediately, not caring about Li Xingzhi's "eating alone" thing, he called Zhou Rou'er and walked outside.

"I don't know what's the emergency for waking us up."

Hu San'er was a mature man, and he had a glimpse of something extraordinary about Li Xingzhi and the others. Although he was impatient in his heart, he still patiently asked softly.

Other big men did not have this patience and politeness, and shouted loudly: "Yeah, what's the matter?! If you can't tell me one, two, three, grandpa will cut off a few pieces of your thin skin and tender meat for a taste today!"

Several big men looked at Li Xingzhi's glistening tender flesh, and they looked a little greedy. Their throats swelled and they swallowed saliva. Among these big men licking blood with the blade of a knife, who has never tasted human flesh? In this day and age,

, when there is a famine, there is nothing that cannot be eaten. Not to mention other people's meat, even one's own children will sometimes "change their sons and eat them".

In the Central Plains generation, the early famine had passed. It was the Zhenguan Holy Dynasty, and with the promotion of corn and sweet potatoes, there were plenty of warehouses. Li Xingzhi and his friends often lived in the capital, but they did not see such vicious people.

He looked at the wolf-like falcon gazes of several big men, and in his heart he resisted the urge to kill them, and said in a cold voice: "Look, are there any missing people here?"

Seeing that Li Xingzhi was not making trouble unreasonably, everyone turned around and looked at the people around him with suspicion, and suddenly said in shock: "Boss Wu, why is Mr. Wu missing?!" Then, several big men stared at Li Xingzhi fiercely, and said evilly.

The voice said: "Boy, is it you?!"

"If Brother Li is causing trouble, will he wake you up? What a senseless person!" Before Li Xingzhi could speak, Li Linzhi jumped out, looked at the rude man, and cursed.

"Little girl, you are looking for death!" The rude man took a step forward, stared evilly, and said in a rough voice.

When Hu San'er saw the arrogant man who was having a seizure, he stood up and stood in front of him, saying, "Okay, let me tell you what's going on."

"I don't know what happened." Li Xingzhi paused and then said, "I just watched the two of them running out sneakily, and I was afraid that something bad would happen, so I woke everyone up."

Listening to Li Xingzhi's words, these big men were somewhat disapproving, and started yelling and cursing.

When Li Xingzhi heard the footsteps that were more than a hundred meters away, he simply didn't explain and just waited for someone to come.

Within a moment, Hu San'er, who was standing in front, seemed to hear something. He raised his ears and soon shouted loudly: "Someone is coming. Let's copy them." As he said this, he cursed again, "Those two brats from the Wu family.

, really sold us.”

By the time everyone picked up their knives and sticks, dozens of fierce men coming out of the village had already arrived.

Seeing that the news was leaked, these fierce men did not hide and walked out from the roadside one by one.

The two men and horses, armed with knives and sticks, reacted with a strange killing force under the bright red firelight. For a moment, the swords were at war with each other!

I'm so dizzy, I was planning to finish writing this paragraph.

As a result, the evening self-study was only from 7:30 to 10 o'clock, and we would continue tomorrow.
