Dafeng's Night Squad

The official road suddenly became lively. It was not lively in the ordinary sense, but many refugees gathered on both sides of the official road.

They were wearing tattered clothes. Some of them were trying their best to dig out the roots of the grass, some were sitting in a daze, and some were lying on the withered grass, breathing weakly.

In the crowd, there were also simple tents.

This place was extremely far from the city. What were they gathering here for? they had nothing to eat … Yan Caiwei saw this and was a little confused.

When she turned to look at yang qianhuan, she discovered that he was already wearing a veiled hat. Instead of a light veil, it was a thick cotton cloth that even transcendent martial artists couldn’t see through.

“Mother, I’m so hungry …”

On the side of the road, a boy of six or seven years old was curled up in his mother’s arms.

The mother and son had unkempt hair and Dirty Faces, and they were emaciated from hunger.

“Stay up for a while longer, I won’t be hungry anymore.”

The young mother held her child in her arms, trembling in the cold wind, and said, ” you won’t be hungry after you fall asleep …

The young mother had many bruises on her face, dark red blood on her wrist, and pale lips. She seemed to be injured.

The young woman’s helpless and numb expression was reflected in Yan Caiwei’s eyes. It also reflected the child’s desire for food and fear of hunger.

She slowly walked over and squatted down in front of the mother and son. From her deerskin waist bag, she took out two steamed buns wrapped in butter paper.

In an instant, many pairs of bloodshot eyes looked over with an indescribable light. It was so terrifying that it didn’t seem to be from a human.

The young woman took the bun and shook the drowsy child awake. She said anxiously, ”

“Hurry up and eat …”

At the same time, as she stuffed the steamed bun into her mouth, she grabbed the sharp stone that was placed beside her and swept her fierce gaze over the refugees who were swallowing their saliva and eager to try.

In the process, she kept urging the child to eat faster.

Yan Caiwei saw the boy’s eyes roll back from choking and hurriedly took out a water bag, handing it over as she said softly,

“Slow down, drink some water.”

While the boy was drinking, Yan Caiwei looked at the young woman and asked,

“What are you all gathered here for?”

From what she had seen and heard, there were three ways of survival for the refugees. The first was to become bandits and Rob other people like locusts. The people who were robbed would become refugees, and the scale would grow larger and larger.

One was to block outside the city and rely on the charity of the Imperial court to survive, or to search for food all over the mountains and plains.

One was to join the army and become a militia.

In the last case, the number of people who chose it was the least. First of all, the Imperial court had limited food and could not afford to raise too many militia. Second, Qingzhou was at war, so the militia would soon be sent to the battlefield in Qingzhou.

And this group of refugees had gathered here, without a village in front of them or a shop behind them, sitting in the cold wind and waiting for death?

The young woman took two bites of the bun and stopped eating. She held it in her hand and said in a hoarse voice, ”

there’s a Mountain Six miles ahead. There’s a King on the mountain. They go out every three to five days to snatch things. Every time they come back, they’ll send someone to deliver some food.

The young woman saw that the child had finished eating the mantou and handed the one in her hand over.

“Let’s eat …”

She then looked at Yan Caiwei, and after a round of examination, she pleaded in a low voice,

“Young lady, can you take my child away?”

Yan Caiwei was taken aback. She definitely couldn’t bring a child with her. This boy looked about the same age as Xu lingying, but he was thin and weak. He was obviously not as easy to support as Xu lingying.

Moreover, she was someone who had been exiled by the Directorate of Celestials and had to travel all over the world. How could a weak child like her bear the pain of running around?

Just as he was about to refuse, he suddenly heard the young woman’s sorrowful voice.

I can’t protect him anymore. The way those people look at him is getting weirder and weirder. Last night. someone secretly took my child away. Fortunately. I woke up in time and fought them to the death …

Yan Caiwei suddenly understood what the bruises on her face and the dark red bloodstains on her hands were.

At this moment, Yan Caiwei could barely breathe.

At this moment, her ears twitched as she heard the sound of horse hooves.

She got up and looked at the official road in front of her. She saw a cavalry team galloping over. The leader was a beautiful woman in a black dress. She had thick eyebrows and big eyes, full of heroic spirit.

“Hualala …”

The lifeless refugees instantly “came to Life” and bounced up from the ground, approaching the cavalry.

Pa!

The woman in the black dress whipped the horse and forced the refugees to retreat. She scolded, ”

line up. Whoever dares to bump into me, I’ll beat them to death.

The refugees seemed to be extremely afraid of her, and they obediently got into formation.

The cavalrymen dismounted from their horses and each of them had a cloth bag filled with steamed buns. They gave one to each of them.

When every refugee received their food, the sack was also empty.

The woman in the black dress sized up yang qianhuan and Yan Caiwei from her horse.

“Judging from your clothes, you don’t look like disaster victims. Where are you from?”

Just as Yan Caiwei was about to speak, yang qianhuan floated into the air with his back facing the crowd.

“There’s no one in the world who can pluck the moon and stars.

“If the heavens didn’t give birth to me, I, yang qianhuan, will worship the ancient times like the eternal night.”

Everyone, including the refugees, was flabbergasted and in awe.

The black-dressed woman’s face was filled with fear, but she did not dare to act rashly. She said in a deep voice, ”

“What is your purpose in coming here?”

She quietly tightened her grip on the handle of the knife.

Not long ago, the government had even sent troops to attack the mountain in an attempt to exterminate them.

Although he had been forced to retreat in the end, Li Lang was sure that the government would not let this matter rest. At this critical juncture, a mysterious figure with extraordinary cultivation had suddenly appeared. It was very likely that he was an expert sent by the Imperial court.

Yang qianhuan continued, ”

“I’m here to visit my friend li lingsu. Have you heard of her?”

…………

The sun hung warmly in the sky, not bringing any warmth. In this small village that was easy to defend and hard to attack, smoke was rising from the kitchen.

A man in a worn-out cotton-padded jacket carrying a bamboo basket came to the Watchtower at the entrance of the village and shouted, ”

“Come down and eat.”

“Alright …”

On the Watchtower, the guy in charge of keeping watch responded. At this time, he suddenly wondered, ”

eh, the 4th leader is back. Why did he bring back so many people? ”

The woman in the black dress galloped to the outside of the village and gestured for the guards on the Watchtower to return safely.

The gates slowly opened.

“4th leader, why did you bring back the victims of the disaster?”

One of the guards eagerly went forward to lead the horse. At the same time, his eyes kept drifting to the yellow-dressed girl behind him.

Big almond eyes, a slightly thin face, and delicate facial features. She was an extremely rare beauty.

The woman in the black dress said lightly, ”

“These aren’t our people, so let’s settle them down first.”

After a simple explanation, she got off the horse and led Yan Caiwei inside.

They walked all the way up, passing through simple wooden houses and loess houses, and finally arrived at their destination. It was still a loess house, but there was an additional fence around it.

The woman in the black dress shouted, ”

“Li Lang, come out. An old friend is looking for you.”

After a while, three people walked out of the room. The one in the middle was extremely handsome and had an imposing appearance. He was a fine young master of the secular world.

On the right was a beautiful woman in a white dress with a gentle temperament. On the left was a woman in purple with fair skin and bright eyes.

They were all extremely beautiful women.

When white dress and purple dress saw Yan Caiwei, their brows furrowed and their eyes became alert.

“Miss Caiwei!”

Li lingsu, who had contacted yang qianhuan before, was not surprised at all. She looked around and asked, ”

“Where is brother yang?”

Right at this moment, yang qianhuan’s chanting voice could be heard from the roof tiles.

“If the heavens didn’t give birth to me, I, yang qianhuan, will worship the ancient times like the eternal night.

“My hand invites the moon to pluck the stars, there is no one like me in this world.”

Everyone looked back and saw a man in white standing on the black roof with his hands behind his back.

This made the woman in the white dress and the woman in the purple dress, who didn’t know anything about him, feel respect for him. They thought that he was a master beyond the world.

Even the woman in the black dress, who had heard two lines of the poem, was still stunned.

Li lingsu turned to the three women and said, ”

let me introduce you. This is yang qianhuan from the Directorate of Celestials. You can just call him senior brother yang. He’s the third disciple of the Superintendent.

Then, he introduced the three women.

The woman in the white dress was called “Zhao susu,” and her father was a County Magistrate.The woman in purple was called Yu hanxiu, and her father was the sect leader of a local Jianghu force.The woman in the black dress was called “lan lan,” and she was a disciple of the Xiang province’s covered cloud sect. She was in the spirit forging stage.

“Susu is proficient in mathematics and can help me with the accounts and manage the expenses of the entire village. Xiu ‘er used to help her father train and manage the disciples, so the order of the village depended on her. LAN ‘er’s cultivation is the strongest, so she’ll be in charge of snatching the landlord with me. ”

Miaozhen’s right, ” li lingsu said. I’m not cut out to lead an Army and fight a war. Even if she taught me, I wouldn’t be able to learn it. Fortunately, I know a lot of talented people in my relationship.

Yang qianhuan finally spat out, ”

“You’re worthy of your reputation!”

Li lingsu waved her hand and invited yang qianhuan and Yan Caiwei into the house for some tea.

“How did you guys get here? Do you have anything to do?”

Yang qianhuan sat in silence with her back to the crowd.

Yan Caiwei said,

“Senior brother yang wanted to steal Xu Qi ‘an’s limelight, so he planned to donate all of the Directorate of Celestials’ property. This caused senior brother song to be dissatisfied and report him. Hence, we were exiled by teacher Jian Zheng.”

Li lingsu held it in for a long time before finally spitting out, ”

“You’re worthy of your reputation!

“Then why did miss Caiwei also come out? Why do you need to get involved?”

Slightly embarrassed, Yan Caiwei said,

“Taking people’s food and doing things for them. Senior brother yang treated me to a meal.”

As expected of you … Li lingsu ridiculed in her heart.

At this moment, yang qianhuan said, ”

“I’ve brought back the group of disaster victims I met on the way. I plan to do what you’ve done, gather the refugees and occupy the mountain as King. I’ll take care of the provisions, but they’ll have to stay in brother Li’s village for the time being.”

Li lingsu glanced at Zhao susu, who was in charge of the expenses. Seeing her nod, she immediately agreed,

“Well said, well said. With brother Yang’s elusive teleportation book, it’s a piece of cake to Rob the Granary of the rich.”

Yang qianhuan shook his head.

“I don’t Rob. If you want grain, just buy it.”

Zhao susu smiled, ”

senior brother yang, this is not a small expense. The current price of grain is …

Before he could finish, he heard Yan Caiwei say,

“When we left the Directorate of Celestials, the head Warden gave us 50000 taels each.”

“Fifty thousand taels of silver? the Directorate of Celestials is indeed generous …” Li lingsu was dumbfounded.

Yan Caiwei shook her head,

“It’s gold.”

Murder and robbery … Li lingsu thought to herself.

Yang qianhuan replied in a low voice, ”

the purpose of my visit, other than to help the people, is to gather into a powerful Army that can not be underestimated.

“And then go to Qingzhou to fight a war? It seems that brother yang and I are on the same path. ” Li lingsu said with emotion.

…….. Yang qianhuan was silent for a moment before replying, ”

of course, that’s one of my goals. In addition, this is actually a way I came up with to suppress Xu Qi ‘an.

Although li lingsu did not know how she could suppress Xu Qi ‘an, she felt happy when she heard the words’ suppress Xu Qi ‘an’. She quickly asked, ”

“Why do you say that?”

Yang qianhuan replied calmly, ”

“Xu Qi ‘an, that bastard, has been in the limelight many times because of his popularity with the people. I can’t catch up no matter what, it’s really disheartening.”

All of his female confidants were extraordinary, and it really made one feel disheartened … “AI, brother yang knows me well,” li lingsu agreed.

Yang qianhuan’s tone remained calm and confident.

but recently, I suddenly came up with a brilliant plan. If it works, the names of yang qianhuan and the other two will surpass Xu Qi ‘an’S.
