When the other party heard his tone, he shuddered all over, didn't know what to say, and hesitated to speak.
"I want to ask, what kind of person are you in this village?"
"I am the chief of this village."
After Xie Xiaoxu heard these words, he already understood what was going on. As long as he could find growth here, everything would be easier to handle. He also wanted to ask him about what had just happened. He knew in his heart that he would be able to get some results.
"I just saw a group of people riding horses here, and then turned around and left. What happened? I also saw that every one of your families closed their doors and windows, and it seemed that they didn't want to go out. Tell me what's going on."
Hearing what Xie Xiaoxu said, he breathed a sigh of relief.
"It turns out you are not one of the bad guys."
Chapter 387: Village Chief's Persuasion
"If I hadn't said that, would you have opened the door for me?"
After hearing this, the village chief nodded. He knew very well that what the other person said was correct. If he didn't do this, he might really ignore what was happening outside.
Knowing that Xie Xiaoxu was a good person, he invited him into his home at this time.
As soon as you entered the door, your family saw a stranger coming here. Their faces became tense, not knowing who the person in front of them was.
At this time, the village chief smiled and said to his family.
"It's okay, don't be nervous. I already know the identity of this person. He is not a bad person, he is just passing by. If he wants to ask us something, we might as well go inside. If others see that our door is open, it would be bad if something happens."
After hearing this, their faces calmed down and they all sat there, their bodies relaxed.
"I don't know why you suddenly came to our house."
A person here started asking questions, feeling a little confused.
Xie Xiaoxu smiled at this time and said to him.
"I have carefully observed the residents in this village, and I feel that your family is indeed better than others. So I think your family must have some status in this village. So I think if I have any questions, maybe you will know more if I ask you."
"Then I wonder if you have anything to ask us?"
When the village chief was speaking, a curious expression appeared on his face. As someone like Xie Xiaoxu who was passing by here, he really couldn't imagine what questions the other party wanted to ask.
"I just passed by here. At this time, an old man from the neighboring family in your village gave me some water to drink and prepared some dry food for me. I can feel from his words and actions that he is a very kind person."
"But not long after I left, a group of horsemen suddenly came to his house, and then his people were taken away. I want to ask what happened?"
After hearing this, the whole family lowered their heads and remained silent at this time.
When Xie Xiaoxu saw their expressions, he became even more confused. He really didn't know what was going on. Why did they become like this when this issue was mentioned? He felt that something was wrong.
"' "How come my question is so difficult to answer? I don't think so. You are all from the same village, and you are the village chief. If you don't know anything, then I really don't know who to ask. "
After hearing what Xie Xiaoxu said, he pondered for a moment, sighed softly, and said to Xie Xiaoxu.
"You are just a person passing by here. I think there are some things that you should not care about. Besides, you can't control them. If you get involved, you may not be able to protect yourself. I advise you to leave as soon as possible."
"What do you mean by that? Explain yourself."
Chapter 388 News about a mountain village
The expression on Xie Xiaoxu's face turned serious at this time. He felt a little uncomfortable when he heard this. After all, the old man had done him a favor. Now that he encountered such a thing, he couldn't just sit back and watch. He just hoped to deal with these things quickly and then leave here.
"You are being irresponsible. As an outsider, I can ask a question here. As the village chief, you actually said such a sarcastic remark. I am really disappointed. If this old man had not done me a favor, I might have just left here and not cared about your business."
The village chief raised his head and saw Xie Xiaoxu's angry expression. He quickly stood up and comforted him at this time.
"Actually, I'm doing this for your own good. You said that you are a young person with a lot of passion in your heart, which is rare, so I think you will be highly regarded. But if you want to take care of this matter, I'm afraid it's not possible. How can you handle so many things by yourself?"
"Are you doubting my ability? Let me tell you, I am very capable and I am not an ordinary person. If you encounter any difficulties, I can help you solve them. Just for the sake of that old man, I can help you."
When the village chief heard these words, hope was ignited in his heart. At this time, there was a change in the look in his eyes when he looked at Xie Xiaoxu. After careful observation, he could feel no aura of a strong man from Xie Xiaoxu, which made him very happy.
"I'm honored that you can come to my home today. I've made it clear to you. If you want to repay me, I have nothing to say. But this matter is a bit complicated, and I'm afraid you can't handle it."
"It's okay, just say whatever you want to say. If I think I can do it, I will definitely help you out of this predicament. When I arrived in the village (aiae) and saw this situation, I actually felt that you guys were having a hard time. Since I want to take care of it, I must stick to it and do my best to make your life peaceful."
"Well, since you have this intention, I will tell you the truth. There is a mountain village near us, where a group of bad guys live. They do evil things here from time to time, and many people have died in their hands, as have some passers-by."
"The people on horseback you saw today are that group of people. They are all very powerful, and it is said that their leader has extraordinary martial arts skills, so most people have never seen him. From time to time, they would come down the mountain, kidnap people from this village, and then threaten us to give them money, otherwise they would kill the person."
"Oh, there is such a thing. It's really too bullying. These guys have done so many evil things. If we don't teach them a lesson, there's really no way to deal with them."
"That's right, and they have a lot of people. What you saw today is just a part of them. If they all came here, I guess everyone in this village would be in trouble."
Chapter 389 News cannot come that fast
"So there is such a thing. No wonder they came here suddenly to see. They took the old man away in such a short time. What they did is really abominable. Don't you dare to resist at all?"
Hearing this, the village chief frowned, his face full of anger, and suddenly stood up.
"Who said we didn't resist? At first, all of us villagers united together and listened to my call to resist. But the consequences of the resistance at that time were horrific. So I think in order to protect our villagers, I had to swallow my anger and give out some money from time to time. Otherwise, we would not be able to bring back the people who were captured."
After hearing this, Xie Xiaoxu could understand the other party's feelings. After all, if they continued to resist, there would probably be a lot of casualties, which he also didn't want to see. But this time he was also very angry in his heart, and he decided to settle the matter here.
"Hearing what you said, I can't just ignore this matter. If that's the case, then I'm going to live here for a while. I want to see what else they will do."
"No trouble! No trouble. As long as you can help us solve this problem, you can stay as long as you want. We are very anxious right now and are worried about not being able to find such a person. Since you have this ability, I would like to thank you here first."
A smile appeared on the village chief's face. This was good news. As long as Xie Xiaoxu could handle this matter well, they would not have any worries in the future. This kind of thing was a very good thing for him, so he was not afraid of trouble.
"I want to ask, do you know where this village is? If possible, take me to find it."
"I only heard that it was on that mountain, but I haven't found the exact location. They are usually very secretive. If there is anything, they will send people directly to our village. And those who have been there never come back. So it is not easy to get such clues."

After hearing the description of the village chief, Xie Xiaoxu frowned at this time. Now, knowing the location of the mountain stronghold was very important to him. If he wanted to solve this matter quickly, he had to find the other party's location, otherwise it would be delayed for a long time.
"When will they come again?"
... ... 0
When the village chief heard this, he thought about it carefully. He knew that the person he had just taken away would not be able to come back here so soon. He felt that there would be news within a day or two.
"You stay here first. I believe there will be news soon. By then we will be able to hear some rumors outside. If you want to take care of it, you can make arrangements in advance. You also need to think carefully about how you are going to save him."
When Xie Xiaoxu heard this, he also felt that this sentence made sense. He needed to know what he needed to do before making plans.
While he was talking, he had asked his family to prepare a room for Xie Xiaoxu.
Chapter 390 Xie Xiaoxu has made up his mind
Soon, Xie Xiaoxu was brought into the room. He felt that he needed to calm down at this moment. After all, he had to be prepared for what was to come. What the village chief said made sense.
He just sat in the room, and soon some food was brought in from outside. Xie Xiaoxu stood up and responded with a smile.
"You can eat these things slowly here. If you need anything, you can tell me in time. I believe there will be news soon. You should also make a plan in your heart."
After the village chief said this, he quickly walked out of the house.
Xie Xiaoxu was eating, but his mind was not idle at all. While sitting here, he kept thinking. After all, he estimated that the other party would return soon. If he didn't have any plan, his actions would become disorganized. This would not do him any good and it would be easy to mess things up.
He analyzed two problems. One is that when the enemy came, they could be wiped out directly. This way, all would be resolved once and for all. One person could be left behind and he could lead him into the mountain village.
However, if he did this, the other party would quickly become alert, and he might not be able to rescue the person he wanted to rescue, which would put him in a more passive situation.
After thinking about this issue, he felt that there was indeed something wrong.
Another problem is that he has to find a way to track the other party, so that he can find the specific location of the stronghold. Only in this way can he find it easily. If he wants to rescue people at that time, it may be much easier. After all, he is alone and the target is not big.
That way the chances of success will increase a lot.
After carefully analyzing the two problems, Xie Xiaoxu chose the latter. He felt that doing so would bring him many benefits. He would be able to catch the person off guard, and it would be easier to rescue the person then.
Having made such a decision, he came here at this time. He has been on the road for a long time this time, and he is more or less tired. He needs to conserve his energy at this time. After all, there are still many things he needs to do. 0 .....
An old man was imprisoned in a mountain village. He wanted to break free, but he had no way to do it. He was also old and did not have enough strength to escape from that predicament.
After struggling there for a long time, I heard footsteps coming towards me.
"You old man are still struggling here. Do you think you can escape after coming here? Let me tell you, that is impossible. Once you know the location of our place, it will be impossible for you to leave."
"When the time comes, I will ask the people in your village to pay more money. The whole countryside will feel very interesting. When we get a lot of money, we will get rid of you directly."
When the old man heard this, he was very angry. He was not afraid of trouble at his age, but he did not want to cause trouble to the people in the village.
Chapter 391: Getting Up Very Early
Time passed quickly, and another day went by. Xie Xiaoxu woke up early in the morning. He had been preparing for this for a long time in his heart.
After sitting in the yard for a while, he heard the sound of a door opening. He turned around and saw that it was the village chief's family coming out.
"Why are you up so early?"
"Yes, I have been thinking about this matter all the time. I don't know if there will be any results today. I really hope they can get here soon."
When the village chief heard this, he looked surprised. He didn't know why Xie Xiaoxu was so anxious.
"Have you thought about it? How are you going to deal with them? I also thought about it when I had nothing to do. If you can eliminate that group of people, maybe it would be okay to leave someone behind to take you there."
"You said this is also a good idea, but after thinking it over again and again, I think this matter cannot be done this way. The news will spread quickly to the village, and then they will be on guard. When I get there, I may not be able to rescue the people. That's still uncertain."
"So that's what you think. Then I have a question for you. How do you think about it? How do you plan to implement it?"
"I think we must discuss this in advance. I hope they can come here quickly, and when they lose money, I hope you can all take out some money. Then I will find a way to follow them, and I will also find the location of the cottage. Once I find the location, I can play freely."
"Besides, my target is very small. It's not easy for them to catch me alone."
Hearing Xie Xiaoxu's idea, they all started walking. Of course he knew that it was not so easy to follow them quietly, and he would be discovered if he was not careful. If he was really discovered, then it would be a waste of time.
"You have to think carefully. It's very risky if you do this. It's better for you to take them all by surprise. I think this is safer."
"Just trust me. I won't fail. Besides, I can follow them without them noticing. You have to trust me."
When he saw Xie Xiaoxu speaking, a determined expression appeared on his face. He thought about it and decided that since he had decided to do so, he would do the same.
"Okay, since you are 360 confident, I will ask the villagers to cooperate with these people, give them more money, and let them go back happily. I think doing so will also be of great benefit to you."
After saying this, they made some breakfast and started to eat. The breakfast was very light, with just a few meals, but it was very filling.
After finishing his meal, Xie Xiaoxu looked outside. He wanted to see if anyone would arrive at the village entrance. He really hoped that someone would come here soon. By that time, he could be ready to set off at any time.
Seeing his gaze, the village chief also came to his side.
Chapter 392: A Lot of Money
When he just stood here, he noticed many figures in his eyes. Suddenly, he came to the entrance of the village. Seeing this place, he said happily.
"Xie Xiaoxu, look quickly, those people are here. You have a chance this time."
After hearing these words, Xie Xiaoxu looked at him and a smile appeared on his face.
"Don't worry, I won't let you down this time. I believe I will do a good job on this matter. You guys should hurry over."
Hearing this, the village chief quickly walked outside. Not long after, all the villagers had gathered together and came to an open place. The bad guys were also standing here, holding weapons in their hands and looking at them fiercely.
"What is the purpose of us brothers coming here today? You should know it. I don't need to remind you of this kind of thing. Now line up and transfer the money in your hands here. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
While he was speaking, several villagers were discussing in low voices.
"These bad guys are so abominable. They just randomly captured a person from the village and asked us to pay them collectively. This kind of thing is really unacceptable to me."
"What can we do? Since we have already encountered it, and it is not the first time, I cannot stand their actions, but what can we do? We cannot beat them, and there is no powerful person to stand up for us. I think it is better not to resist. Otherwise, you know the consequences."
Hearing this, he shook his head helplessly, sighed softly, and seemed to have accepted his fate.
When they took out the money in their hands, Xie Xiaoxu also started to take action. His figure kept finding a hidden place nearby quickly. Seeing these people around them enthusiastically taking out their money, he felt bad.
But he knew that once he was able to track these people successfully, he would know that he had the strength to eliminate them, and at that time he would restore peace to the people in this area.
It didn't take long for these people to take the money out and return to their homes in shame. Seeing that the villagers had returned to their homes and the bad guys had sexual expressions on their faces, he saw that the money in his hands was more than usual.
"' "It's really good. I didn't expect that I would gain more this time than before. This result makes me satisfied."
With a smile on his face, he put the money away. After all, he was not the leader of this village, so even though he received the money, he dared not make it public. Otherwise, if he was discovered, he would be severely punished.
