I am the man who wants to be the immortal and the devil emperor

Xu Xiaoyan said: "Isn't your general known as 'Xia Bao'? Since everyone has the title of Xia, why doesn't he care?"

Sha Ling fan smiled and said: "That's not right, the name of a chivalrous man only represents his past, not that he has the obligation to save others in the future. But I guess, it's not that the Leopard Army doesn't want to take care of it, I'm afraid it can't be done. It's hard for the army to protect itself."

Qian Xiaowu hesitated for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "The three of you can clearly see that at this moment, Liu Hongyan's Yunlang Army of the 'Duan Luan Xiong Dao' is pointing directly at Luling. "Ruyang Xuanhao" Yin Haoshu, one of the Eight Great Martial Immortals of the Sect, supported him, and secretly colluded with many thieves around the Ganjiang River."

"To tell the truth, the Wild Ghost Gang was secretly bought by the Yunlang Army with a lot of money, and they plundered around the back of Luling. They come and go like the wind, and they are extremely difficult to deal with. Just like these people, they came directly to kill people and rob food. Destroying the village and harming the people. They know that we value the name of a hero and will not ignore it, but when we came, these people ran away again."

"Come and go, we can't guard against it, so we are in a state of distress. Up to now, many villages have been robbed. The desolate ghost gang is not eliminated, the people here are uneasy, and the rear of our army is constantly being harassed. The Yunlang army is already at a disadvantage. It's hard to keep safe."

"The three are all masters, so Xiao Wu has the courage to ask the three to go to Luling to help the Leopard Army."

After finishing speaking, he bowed to the three of Shi Hao and just knelt down.

Shi Hao and the others looked at each other, thinking that the Leopard Army's situation seemed really bad, just because they were middle-ranked, they invited them with all their strength like catching duckweed in the sea.

While speaking, there was a group of people in the distance, the number was about a hundred, and they rushed over on horseback.

These people were all exhausted, but they didn't have time to stay. They rushed here with knives and guns, and while they were relieved to see that the people were safe, they were all astonished at the corpses of the bandits on the ground.

Shi Hao turned his head to look at Sha Lingshan and Xu Xiaoyan, and said with a smile: "Anyway, Luling is the only way for us to go back, so it's just a matter of visiting."

These people are indeed doing their best to help the people, which makes him quite fond of them.

Sha Lingshan covered her mouth with a Luo fan, and said with a smile: "It's good for the husband to be the master!"

Xu Xiaoyan turned to look at her... It's fine for him to call us his wives, but why are you a "husband"?

- A man as strong as a bear, with a big arm and a thick waist, stepped forward with an axe: "Xiao Wu, what's going on here?"

Qian Xiaowu turned around and explained to the big man: "Brother Xiong, this is Mr. Shi Chongyun, and these are his two wives. They got rid of all these bandits. If they didn't pass by here, the villagers here would It is difficult to preserve.

"I just invited them to visit Luling."

Xiong Si looked at the young man in the long gown, and saw his two ladies, one was beautiful, the other was beautiful, and hurriedly said: "Envy, envy... Ah no! I have long admired, long admired!"

These people also moved quickly, helping to dispose of the corpses of the bandits, comforting the people, and returning all the food and other things that had been looted by the bandits.

Immediately afterwards, Xiong Si invited Shi Hao and the other three to Luling again.

For them, the three martial arts professionals who are willing to help the common people are their fellow travelers, and the three middle-level masters are also timely help for them.

Shi Hao took his "two ladies" and followed these people to Yongxin County, one of the five counties in Luling.

Here, I first met Hu Jingyun, one of the three Jiangnan generals.

Hu Jingyun has a narrow face and a high forehead, which looks like a horse's face. He is also quite tall, but he is wearing a Confucian robe and a Confucian travel scarf.

At this moment, he was facing reports from various villages and towns, at a loss what to do.

In the dilapidated county yamen, Hu Jingyun learned that Shi Hao and the other three had rescued the villagers over there, and hurriedly invited them to sit down.

Shi Hao saw a map in front of him, with large and small circles drawn on it, and he looked dizzy.

So he asked, "General Hu, what troubles do you have?"

Hu Jingyun sighed and said: "To tell you the truth, this is the case of the surrounding villages and towns being attacked in the past two days. The people of the Wild Ghost Gang went deep into our rear and looted everywhere. I think they must have a stronghold for such scattered looting. , but couldn’t find it anywhere.”

Shi Hao said: "General, can you show me the map?"

Hu Jingyun didn't refuse either, so he turned the table where the map was placed, and explained to him the time when the bandits appeared and the villages they looted.

In this year, there are not too many scholars.

Under the control of the barbarian court, many people didn't even have a normal name, only a surname, and then they were numbered according to the time of birth as their names, so a surname plus one or two numbers was their name.

All kinds of poems, books, and classics are controlled by wealthy families, while martial arts practitioners in the Jianghu are mostly dog-slayers, and they are low-level figures who make a living.

Most of the warriors in the Leopard Army are "dog slaughterers", and the lower-level soldiers are the surrounding mountain people, hunters, etc.

Hu Jingyun is one of the few scholars in the army... Although he looks ugly, his figure is somewhat deformed because of his external skills, and he doesn't read many books. Since the barbarian court ruled, he has held more than 20 imperial examinations. He belongs to the kind that even a scholar can't pass the exam.

But no one in the army is more "knowledgeable" than him.

It is precisely because of this that he can be regarded as a strategist in the Leopard Army...the kind who bite the bullet.

The Leopard Army was an early start in the rebel army, but the territory was still unable to develop, so it cannot be said that it had nothing to do with it.

They also want to hire a more powerful cultural person as a military adviser, but there is no such thing. Scholars in wealthy families look down on them, and they, as dog slaughterers killed from the bottom of the rivers and lakes, are naturally opposed to those people.

Taoism belongs to the place with the most educated people in the martial arts, but those people in Taoism regard them as inferior, and they don't have any strong background or important resources to make people look at them and come to invest.

Hu Jingyun knew that he was not good at this, but there was nothing he could do.

Seeing that this young man was willing to "help him have a look" at this moment, he was simply overjoyed.

Immediately afterwards, I saw the young man facing the map, listening to the information, while picking up a charcoal pencil, measuring and drawing on the map, and drew many semicircles.

These semicircles intersect with each other, forming several points of intersection.

Then he connected these intersections back and forth, asked for another piece of yellow paper, and wrote many twisted things on it with charcoal.

Hu Jingyun looked at it in a daze, thinking... Isn't he drawing a talisman?

Chapter 290 The Blessing of All People

Sha Lingshan and Xu Xiaoyan were also on Shi Hao's left and right sides, watching him paint and paint together.

They didn't understand what he was doing either.

After the distorted lines overlapped up and down, a horizontal line was drawn, and there were several rows of distorted lines underneath.

Then circle around on the map, and draw many straight lines and curves.

After a while, four black dots were painted on the map, and two were crossed out by himself.

"Ninety-eight times out of ten, the stronghold of the Wild Ghost Gang is in these two places." Shi Hao pushed the table lightly, and it moved to the front of Hu Jingyun again.

Hu Jingyun looked at it seriously, and said, "Qiqulin and Linxiayuan?"

Shi Hao said with a smile: "You'd better send someone to check these two places quietly, basically there will be no mistakes."

Hu Jingyun's biggest headache was not that he couldn't beat the Wild Ghost Gang, but that the Wild Ghost Gang were rogues who came and went like the wind, so they couldn't fight the Wild Ghost Gang.

At this moment, seeing that Shi Chongyun was so swearing, he hastily summoned two groups of warriors who were excellent in lightness kungfu and cautious, and asked them to rush to these two places to investigate.

At the same time, let them hide well. If they really find the lurking stronghold of the Wild Ghost Gang, they must not startle the snake.

At this time, Hu Jingyun was still somewhat skeptical.

On the south side of the Ganjiang River, there are many mountains and deep mountains, thousands of people are hiding, and it is difficult to find them.

Anyway, he is a person who is familiar with the local geography, and he doesn't know where to find it. This young man took a map, and through some information, he scribbled on the map like ghosts, and he was really able to easily capture the stronghold of the Wild Ghost Gang. find out?

But until now, he has nothing more to do.

If those guys from the Wild Ghost Gang are not dealt with, they will have endless troubles, and it will be difficult for them to concentrate on dealing with the Yunlang army.

The dead horse had to be used as a living horse doctor, and while sending out manpower, the three people were invited to live in Yongxin County temporarily, and they were also arranged for a place to live.

Because they were a husband and two wives, Hu Jingyun vacated a big room for them from the backyard of the yamen, and there was a big bed in the room.

The county magistrate here was originally a man with three wives and four concubines, so he had a big house and a luxury couch.

Later, when the people rebelled, the county magistrate was killed. If his wives were taken by force, they would be sent home, and the others would be assigned to those without wives.

In the southern area, these county magistrates are basically lackeys appointed by rich and powerful families. The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and the barbarian court has insufficient control.

But this does not mean that the people in the south are better than those in the north. These rich and powerful families who rely on the barbarian court to show off their power also use various names to oppress the people. In the fish and meat village, they are actually the same.

To some extent, the oppression of the powerful does not discriminate against ethnicity.

At this moment, the compound is divided into several areas.The room assigned to the three of them was originally vacant and was used to store military supplies, but the big bed was ready-made, left by the previous county magistrate.

Xu Xiaoyan stared at the big bed in a daze.

When Hu Jingyun asked them to arrange a place for them, she had a bad premonition, but it turned out that her premonition was not wrong... Those guys really only arranged one room for them.

Xu Xiaoyan turned her head and stared fiercely at Shi Hao...it's all your fault for talking nonsense.

Shi Hao pushed open the window and looked outside, only to see those warriors and soldiers busy in the yard, chatting and laughing with the villagers who came to help.

There are also many village girls coming in and out, helping these warriors wash their clothes and apply medicine.

He laughed and said: "The atmosphere here is not bad. It's not like our Dongting Army, which relies on military discipline layer by layer to achieve strict discipline. These people really mingle with the common people."

Shaling fan shook her fan and said: "In general, these warriors were originally local chivalrous men. They were organized to fight against the atrocities, and someone from above played a leading role, so the military discipline is not bad."

Then he shook his head again: "But it's useless. The Leopard Army started early, but its development was too slow, and it was lackluster in terms of strategy and tactics. It is very important for them to be deeply bound to the local folks." It’s a good thing, but it’s also a bad thing.”

"As it is now, the Wild Ghost Gang is plundering everywhere and causing harm to the village. They can't just ignore it. Once they control it, they will be played around and spend too much energy. Cut off from the rich and powerful, and don't join forces with those people. It is they who maintain military discipline. , the reason for being close to the people."

"But there is no overt and covert support from wealthy families, lack of resources, and difficulty in developing, which is a bad thing. The Yunlang Army developed later than them, but the 'Duan Luan Xiong Dao' Liu Hongyan is a powerful man, and there are other big families on the surface With the money and food support from the Chongxianmen, and the secret funding from the Chongxianmen, the development is extremely fast."

"If things go on like this, it will be a matter of time before the Leopard Army is wiped out."

Shi Hao turned back and said, "Sister Sha also seems to have a deep understanding of the development of various forces?"

Sha Ling said with a smile: "Although I can't compare to Xuanfeng Tanzhu as a wife, I still know a thing or two."

Xu Xiaoyan bit her lip... she actually became "a wife".

Shi Hao recalled in his mind what Long Niu had explained to him about the people from all walks of life, and said: "'Xiabao' Guan Rong and the Dragon and Phoenix Society were originally related to the Dark Thunder Society. Although the Dark Thunder Society was disbanded, the two parties It can be regarded as like-minded.

"Now that the Dragon and Phoenix Society is gaining momentum, why doesn't Guan Rong join the Dragon and Phoenix Society? At least at this moment, when faced with a crisis, he should ask for help from the Dragon and Phoenix Society. If the Dragon and Phoenix Society is willing to threaten the Yunlang Army from the side, the Yunlang Army should not dare Call easily."

But Xu Xiaoyan said: "Dragon and Phoenix meeting..."

Shi Hao turned to look at Xu Xiaoyan, and said, "What's wrong with Dragon and Phoenix?"

Xu Xiaoyan said: "I don't know too well, but I know one person, who is a member of the Baidao, called 'Shengdi' Fang Xiaozi. 'Shengdi' is his nickname, and it is also a kind of medicinal material. His name is because he has the ability to rejuvenate his hands."

"When the Dragon and Phoenix Association was in trouble, he responded to the righteousness of resisting barbarism and went to seek refuge without hesitation. It was considered a sacrifice of blood. When I went to see old man Zhong a few days ago, I found that he was there too, but he left Longfeng meeting."

"I also asked him, why did he come back after staying well in the Dragon and Phoenix Club? He said angrily, 'Differences, don't conspire with each other', and then stopped mentioning the Dragon and Phoenix Club."

Sha Lingfan said: "From this point of view, I am afraid that there are many contradictions within the Dragon and Phoenix Society that are not known to outsiders. Alas, there is no way around this. In the beginning, everyone was poor, but now there are soldiers and food. With land, many things are different.”

Shi Hao shook his head and said: "Although the momentum of the Dragon and Phoenix Association is good, it is still too early to monopolize the south of the Changhe."

They chatted here for a while, and Shi Hao went outside again.Unknowingly, it was getting late, and after dinner, each of us washed up.

Before going to sleep, Xu Xiaoyan laid her plain sword flat on the big couch, and said: "You sleep on the outside, don't touch this sword." But Shi Hao allocated one-third of the space.

Shi Hao looked at Su Jian and said with a smile: "But this sword is mine, why can't I touch it?"

Xu Xiaoyan raised her lips: "Give it to me, it's mine." Then she stared at the silk fan: "What are you doing?"

Shaling Fan lightly released Luo Shang: "Huh? Don't you want to rest?"

Seeing her for a while, she took off all the undergarments, lower garments, and middle garments, and only wore a carmine breast pocket with the "three-many appearance" and a pair of clean white jackets and trousers.

But she bent slightly to untie the top of her jacket and trousers.Xu Xiaoyan was surprised and said: "You even take this off?"

Sha Ling fan said: "Oh, shouldn't you take it off?" She smiled and said: "That's how it is."

The delicate body slipped, but it slipped into the bed and fell asleep inside.

Shi Hao looked at Xu Xiaoyan... talkative!

Then stare at Xu Xiaoyan... You should take it off too, right?

Xu Xiaoyan bit her lip, stared at him like a tigress: "Turn around."

Shi Hao turned around, turned his back to her, and said with a smile: "There is no need to be so particular, right? Do you need to guard me so strictly? I won't do anything to you?"

Xu Xiaoyan stuck out her tongue behind him: "You have never been kind, what I regret the most is getting to know you." She snorted, and quickly took off her outer clothes, but she kept her jacket and pants, and got into the room. bed.

Shi Hao said: "I'm wronged... I obviously didn't do anything." He also took off his clothes.

He took off his long shirt, his thick and warm inner jacket, and his trousers.Xu Xiaoyan shouted: "Don't take off so naked."

Shi Hao said: "Xiao Yan, you are peeking at me."

Sha Ling fan said: "Oh, Xiaoyan, you are peeking at him!"

Xu Xiaoyan shouted: "Look at your heads."

Shi Hao said: "Tell me to turn around when you take it off, and you peek while I take it off, it's so immoral."

flutter!A pillow is thrown over.

Shi Hao smiled, grabbed the pillow, put it back on the big couch, turned over, and got into the bed.

The bed is really big, and so is the quilt.

In a sense, the big quilt sleeps together.
