Chapter 139 Lively
The fire Yan Liqiang set in the Shatu people's settlement on the evening of October 30 made the entire Pingxi City boil again.
The person who originally thought that Gushanfeng had already left had discovered that Gushanfeng had not left at all. Not only that, the case that Gushanfeng did this time was a hundred times more exciting than the last time he killed Wang Haofei in Meiyuan.
The Shatu people were burned by the mountain wind in Pingxi City. The silver lost by Shatu people was uncountable for a while. Not only that, the mountain wind also continued to use a battle bow to kill people on Shatu people's territory.
There may be only a few dozen Shatu people who died in the hands of Kushanfeng, but with the emergence of various versions of rumors, the Shatu people killed by Kushanfeng has increased rapidly. In just two days, among the versions Yan Liqiang heard, the number of Shatu people killed by him has exceeded 300.
The most bizarre thing is that when the mountain wind set fire to the warehouse, there were more than 200 Shatu people sleeping in the warehouse, but none of the Shatu people ran out.
As evidence of this rumor, it is said that when the defenders in Pingxi City discovered the fire in the Shatu people's warehouse that night, a battalion of defenders rushed to the fire warehouse in the Shatu people's gathering area, but were stopped by the Shatu people. They did not want the defenders in Pingxi City to get close to their burning warehouse. Even when the warehouse was finally cleared, the defenders in the city did not get close to them. The reason why the Shatu people did this was that they did not want others in Pingxi City to know that more than 200 Shatu people in that warehouse were burned to death by the fire from the mountain wind.
This rumor was vivid and made many people in Pingxi City believe it, but Yan Liqiang knew that the so-called Shatu people were burned to death in the warehouse for more than 200 people.
It's totally nonsense. There is only one reason why the Shatu people don't want the defenders in Pingxi City to approach that warehouse, that is, they don't want the defenders in Pingxi City to discover the secrets in the weapons reserve warehouse below the warehouse, so as to avoid further trouble.
The fire burned almost all night long. Under such high temperatures, the temperature in the middle of the fire could burn all the steel, so there was no doubt that the things that the Shatu people hid in the arsenal under the warehouse had basically been scrapped and there was not much to use. This was the biggest loss for the Shatu people.
The Shatu people thought that no one knew their secret, but that night he took a battle bow out of the Shatu people's warehouse and threw it to the east of Jiulong Bridge. The battle bow had a clear sign of Ganzhou craftsmanship camp on it. The battle bow was an important clue. The first one to catch the Jiulong Bridge that night was the defenders in the city. If this battle bow fell into the hands of those defenders, if there were smarter people among the defenders in Pingxi City, they might be able to guess something through the clues of the battle bow. This is also the only thing he can do now, and it is a kind reminder...
The Shatu people colluded with the Ye family. They made such a vote on the Shatu people's land in Pingxi City. No matter whether Shatu people make trouble or not, as long as the mountain wind does not come to justice for a day, they can hold Ye Tiancheng, the governor of Pingxi County, in the middle and feel the huge pressure from all sides...
Therefore, starting from October 31, the entire Pingxi City suddenly became storm everywhere, and people were looking for mountain winds everywhere.
All the constables in the criminal yamen in Pingxi City, all the big and small gangsters in the city, as well as the soldiers guarding Pingxi City, even the grassroots officials in the city, and apprentices in various martial arts halls were mobilized, digging three feet into the ground to find the mountain wind. As for the inspection of Pingxi City leaving the city, it was even more harsh and unimaginable. Not only did people need to check, but the bags they carry with them must be checked, and all vehicles and goods leaving the city must be checked.
On the morning of November 1st, Yan Liqiang originally wanted to go to the library in the National Museum of War and find some information. He remembered that although there were no martial arts secrets in the library of the National Museum of War, in addition to the classics such as literature, history, classics and philosophy, there were many miscellaneous books, old stories, square records, pictures and biography. He always felt that the metal cylinder he got should be useful, but he never understood what the metal cylinder he got was, so he thought of going to the library to see if he could find some relevant information and solve the doubts in his heart.
But what Yan Liqiang didn't expect was that as soon as he arrived at the National Museum of War, he was arrested by the National Museum of War and sent out by the National Museum of War to find the mountain wind, which was called exercise.
Pingxi County National Museum asked three students to form a group, each group of students carrying a bow, two loud arrows, wanted portraits of mountain wind and three swords, one by one, hung the waist signs of students from the National Museum in a conspicuous position on their waists, and scattered all students into Pingxi City like casting a net to find mountain wind...
Yan Liqiang, Shi Dafeng and Shen Teng voluntarily formed a group and were just divided together.
...
"I heard that the mountain wind killed people like a ruthless person, and had a strong bow cultivation. If the three of us really encountered the mountain wind, they might not survive. The National Museum sent us out, and they didn't care about our lives or death. It's really his grandmother's..." As soon as we walked out of the National Museum, Shi Dafeng, who was outspoken, cursed angrily, "The mountain wind killed a few more Shatu dogs this time? Pingxi City made it so nervous. Everyone was looking for them. The bounty was increased by ten times. Why was the bounty not so high when the mountain wind killed people in Meiyuan last time? Are the lives of those Shatu people more valuable than the lives of our Han people? Fuck..."
"You can't say that!" Shen Teng shook the hair on his forehead with a cool look, "After all, the annual expenses of this National Museum are allocated by the county. The county magistrate is now anxious to get angry and want to catch the mountain wind. Everyone who can mobilize the entire Pingxi City has started. Should the National Museum be at least pretending? This is better in front of the county magistrate and will not be remembered by the county magistrate. In the future, the county magistrate will only drink the northwest wind. We don't have to take it too seriously, just take it for a walk. The mountain wind can hide so well, and the whole person is elusive. It is definitely not something we can encounter by just walking around the streets."
"You still know Shen Teng, alas, Li Qiang, why do you look so weird?"
"Cough... cough... nothing, nothing..." Yan Liqiang certainly wouldn't say that when he saw Shen Teng's hair shaking action, he suddenly remembered the classic animated image of Huang Bo shaking his hair while carrying a shoulder pole. So he had a strange expression and almost couldn't help laughing, so he could only pretend to cough a few times to cover it up.
"No, Li Qiang, you are not honest. You must have thought of something just now..." Shi Dafeng asked relentlessly.
"I was actually thinking just now that we were struggling in the city, would the mountain wind have already escaped from the city? After all, for these giant bandits, the city wall is not a completely insurmountable obstacle. I heard that some people with extremely high realms pass through the city wall as if they are walking on flat ground..."
"Yes, Li Qiang is right. Some experts have practiced profound light skills. The walls of Pingxi City are indeed unable to stop them. However, I heard that the mountain wind seemed to have not yet advanced to the martial arts master, so it should not be possible that he had such skills..." Chen Teng said seriously.
"Well, then it seems that I am thinking too much..." Yan Liqiang said as Chen Teng said.
"But maybe there are any tricks for the mountain wind. For example, if he can use flying claws, it is not difficult to climb the city wall when others are not paying attention. If the soldiers guarding the city are a little careless at night and take a nap, the mountain wind will slip away. Moreover, even if the soldiers on the city wall find someone slipping away, they probably dare not say it. They can only pretend to be confused, because if they say it, they will take the blame and pretend not to say anything. So what Li Qiang said may be a bit likely,..." Chen Teng put his words over again. After looking at the longbow that Yan Liqiang was carrying, he asked Yan Liqiang a question, "By the way, I have never seen Li Qiang, you have trained bow skills, I don't know how Li Qiang's bow skills are?"
"I can't do any bowing skills. I can barely shoot the arrow. Whether it can be shot within fifty meters depends on luck. As long as the arrow can be shot out, it is for calling the police. The teacher handed it to me just now, and I carried it on my back..." Yan Liqiang shook his head like a rattle, and then continued to ask the question Chen Teng was looking forward to, "By the way, I don't know how Brother Chen's bow cultivation is?"
He smiled calmly and slightly conscientiously, took a breath and raised his chest, "I just advanced to the first level of the bow and the first level of the heaven..."
"Wow..." Yan Liqiang looked "surprised" and "shocked". "Then we have to ask Brother Chen more advice from now on. By the way, I think Brother Chen is best to carry this bow and a sound arrow. If something really happens, this thing will be much more effective in Brother Shen's hands than in my hands..."
As he spoke, Yan Liqiang quickly took down the bow and arrow on his body and handed it to Chen Teng with sincerity.
"Well, then I'll carry it on my back..." Chen Teng did not refuse, but instead carried it generously, as if he was quite proud.
"I know there is a place outside Dongcheng. The hot pot is very good. I think the weather is a bit cold today, and the mountain wind is also a human being. Maybe we want to eat hot pot too. Why don't we eat hot pot somewhere and wait to see if the mountain wind will appear. Of course, in order to celebrate the advancement of Chen Tenggongdao to the first level of heaven, this hot pot treats Chen Teng Teng's hot pot!" Shi Dafeng suddenly spoke.
Yan Liqiang was silent for a moment, then nodded vigorously, "Yes, this idea is good. Let's go to the place Brother Shi said, and eat hot pot while checking if the mountain wind will come. If he dares to come, we will fire the arrow immediately..."
Chen Tengduo was silent for a moment, then nodded with a serious look, "Maybe the mountain wind has already run out of Pingxi City, and it is unknown whether it is a gourmet!"
The three of them walked a few steps and then laughed together...
...
At noon, it was already cold outside, and the three of them left the city, brushing hot pot, drinking rice wine, and talking about life, was so happy...
Halfway through the hot pot, there was a rapid sound of horse hooves outside the food shop. The sound of horse hooves stopped outside the food shop, and then the two of them rushed to the food shop.
The two people who came in were strong and strong, with their eyes as lightning, with swords and swords, wearing strong clothes, with thick cloaks on their bodies, one carrying a huge bow bag, and the other carrying a crossbow box. At the same time, there was a red headband on their foreheads, and the whole outfit was very distinct and unique.
"Waiter, what's the hot stuff? Let us brothers bring it to the first place..." The two of them put the things on their backs on the table, almost shaking the table. As soon as one of them put the things they had put, they turned their heads and shouted.
...
"Yanxia'er, these two people are Yaxia'er..." Chen Teng glanced at the two people, with a little surprised voice, "I guess he was attracted by the bounty of the mountain wind. The bounty of a thousand taels of gold is not a small amount..."
Rangers are a special group in the Han Empire who are exploring all over the world. This group has the color of helping the poor and fighting bravely, and is also a bit like Yan Liqiang, who has seen Western bounty hunters chasing money in film and television dramas before. Those who become Rangers will come from all walks of life. Even among young people from wealthy families, there are also those who yearn for Rangers to join this group. Whether it is a male, female, old or young, the only requirement for becoming this group is to have strong skills and cultivation.
It was the first time that Yan Liqiang saw a person with the profession of Gossip appearing in Pingxi City, so he looked at the two Gossips more. The two Gossips seemed to be hard characters. Yan Liqiang just looked at them for a while, and one of them immediately felt it. He turned his head and looked at Yan Liqiang and the others' table. After finding that there were only three young people with curious faces sitting at this table, the talent turned his eyes as if nothing had happened.
Within ten minutes, the two Rangers had eaten their meals for a while, and the sound of horse hooves outside the food shop sounded again. In the blink of an eye, another Rangers dressed in him walked into the store.
The three golfers looked at each other, but no one spoke. Later, the golfer found a place far away from the two golfers and sat down, and then greeted the waiter.
When the Ranger who came from behind started eating, the two Rangers in front had already finished their meal, threw the money on the table, and then left the food shop with their crossbows and weapons.
...
Looking at the two Rangers leaving, Yan Liqiang narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking about something...
