Dark Fairy

Chapter 389 Bystander
After chatting for a while, Bai Lang told Zhou Dong what Yang Xiu had handed him today.

"Now the brothers can no longer hold back in the mountains and want to go down the mountain for a walk. This matter has been delayed for some time. What do you think? Is there any way to solve it?"

Since Zhou Dong had been waiting outside the courtyard beforehand, he naturally had his own plans for Bailang's question.

So Zhou Dong replied: "Zu Dao, in fact, I have heard the thoughts of the brothers in the mountain. After all, there are not many things in the mountain. It is really uncomfortable to have the remaining time empty. In addition, the mountain is too comfortable, so it is inevitable that things will pop up in my mind. some restless thoughts.

In fact, the situation outside is changing very quickly, especially the area south of Changshui after the withdrawal of the barbarians. Now it has completely turned into a place of chaos. All the rules have collapsed. Black market dealers, bandits, refugees, and rebels are all going there. Lean over.The situation already has some signs of so-called troubled times.

According to your previous request for external intelligence, Zuodao, if you want to grasp these things as soon as possible, the manpower in the hands of your subordinates will not be enough.It would be best if we could expand the number of people.

Or let your subordinates train with Yang Hongdao, and then select qualified candidates to be candidates for the descent. When there are more people, they will be rotated according to a certain time. Do you think this can work? "

"Where are the fine print?"

"There is a sword. Please take a look." Zhou Dong said as he took out a pamphlet from his arms and handed it over.

"Heh, it seems that you are indeed well prepared."

"There is nothing you can do about the sword. The killers below are all wild-tempered. They can suppress their anger when they are on the run, but it is hard to do anything when they are free. You have to find something for them to do, and you have to be properly organized. A way to vent. Otherwise, others in the mountains will suffer sooner or later, and the reputation of the knife studio will be ruined."

Bai Lang took a rough look at it.He handed the pamphlet back to Zhou Dong and said: "The method of training first, and then rotating after passing the test can be implemented. This matter can be let out first, so that the brothers below can have hope.

In addition, Yang Xiu, you need to keep a close eye on those who dare to mess around in the mountains. You must not be lenient.Once they have tasted its power, they will be afraid.Understand? "

"My subordinate understands!"

Zhou Dong took back his strategy book and then retreated at Bai Lang's signal.He has never been idle since he entered the mountains.What they do is the same as before, they collect intelligence, but the scenes they deal with are much bigger than before.This gave Zhou Dong a new challenge.It also made him feel inexplicably energetic.

Looking at Zhou Dong who left happily, Bai Lang smiled and said to Yang Xiu who stayed in the yard: "Brother Dong seems to be particularly energetic during this period. It seems that changes in the environment can really give people a different mental outlook."

Unexpectedly, these words made Yang Xiu burst into laughter.

"Huh? Is there anything interesting that I don't know?" Bailang reacted quickly, understanding that Zhou Dong's change might not be as simple as he said.Judging from Yang Xiu's reaction, there should be some reason that he didn't know.

Although Yang Xiu was a little reckless, he was not stupid. He understood that he had just lost his composure, and quickly knelt down on one knee and said: "This subordinate is stupid, please punish me with a sword!"

"Stop talking nonsense and quickly tell me why you are laughing. Is it about Zhou Dong?"

"Yes, it's a sword. Zhou Dong met a widow at the foot of the mountain with a baby less than three years old. She was so hungry that she couldn't walk and was bullied by several refugees. He went up and hacked the refugees to death and took her in. The widow and her baby. They are now placed next to the transfer station of Xia Dao Hall in Queer Mountain. Recently, I heard from the brothers below that Zhou Dong has changed his mind to live with the widow. He picked up a son for nothing, but now he has a smile on his face all day long. He didn’t shy away from talking to his brothers, so he just said he was getting married.”

"Ah?" Bailang subconsciously sat up straight after hearing this.Isn't this how he knows Zhou Dong?It is no exaggeration to say that Zhou Dong is an old gangster.Food, drink, prostitution, gambling, anything, everything.And life is just one day at a time, never thinking too much about the future.An understanding person who can even imagine what his own death will look like.

how?Is it uncomfortable to live alone?Or was he suddenly stimulated by something?Or is it "the fate has arrived" as the saying goes?
For Bailang, Zhou Dong's transformation was strange.Don't understand it at all.

"The widow is beautiful?"

Yang Xiu shook his head and said: "I have never seen that widow, but I heard from the brothers below that although she is not old, she is probably in her early twenties, and she looks fair and she should be a young lady from a wealthy family. But she looks ordinary. He's not very good-looking, at least not ugly. But his gentle words are pleasant to the ears."

Bailang was silent for a moment. He guessed that it was the legendary "fate" that found Zhou Dong.But then I thought about it, Zhou Dong was just an ordinary warrior, not even of high rank, and he had lived for half his life.Perhaps with age and fate, all the things that seemed like they shouldn't be suddenly become less difficult to understand.

Looking at Yang Xiu who was still giggling, Bai Lang was speechless.Perhaps only a killer like Yang Xiu, who was obsessed with killing, would not feel anything about Zhou Dong's change.Because it is estimated that in Yang Xiu's view, these are just clouds, and only killing methods are the way to survive.

So Bai Lang asked Yang Xiu, "What about you? Why haven't you thought about finding a woman to live a stable life?"

"Ah? My subordinates have very tight time to practice, so they don't have time to waste on women."

Bailang secretly thought that it was true.

Shaking his head, Bai Lang started another topic and said, "How have you guys in the inner hall been practicing recently? Are you improving?"

"Zu Dao, the three newcomers have officially started their journey. They are currently practicing with us. In addition, including me, there are a total of fourteen brothers in the inner hall. The fastest one has mastered the basic techniques of the Five Elements Technique. Once you become proficient, you can integrate it into martial arts and try it a few times, and the effect will be obvious."

Yang Xiu got excited when she talked about this, and she could talk endlessly.

The inner hall in the words was actually Bailang's way of distinguishing the Qi practitioners in the sword hall that he had taught through [preaching and teaching] from the ordinary swordsman hall.Among them, the three newcomers are not even people from the sword studio. After arriving at Daomen Village, Yang Xiu selected them from the family members of Daomen Village or the refugees taken in by Daomen Village. They are all between ten and ten years old. There were people between 15 and above this age, but Bailang didn't want them.

"There are still fewer people. What Zhou Dong went to do just now can also be done together with the matter of looking for seedlings. You can discuss with Zhou Dong how to do it. The main ones are orphans, no more than [-] years old, male and female. No limit.

Also, the barbarians on the south bank have retreated. Find some experts to explore the situation in the mines in Shuangqing City and take a look at the secret passage.Understand? "

"My subordinate understands!"
