Huang Xun came to Xun County with a heavy army as if just to frighten the chaos outside the city. He read out the decree that was suddenly transmitted from the court to other places, and then immediately led his troops to fight again without any further pause.

At the same time, he also left thousands of people for Xiao Jiu in Xun County to help Xiao Jiu send refugees north.

Before leaving, Huang Xuan looked at Xiao Jiu standing in front of others without saying anything. He patted him on the shoulder and said, "Good boy, after this battle is over, don't forget to come to the capital to have a drink with me."

"

Xiao Jiu smiled, not thinking that Huang Xuan would still remember what he said to Huang Xun when he was a child. He also responded with a smile, "Yes. One day, I will go to the royal city and never return without being drunk with the general."

"Hahahaha...it's a deal!"

After receiving a satisfactory answer, Huang Xuan laughed. He sat on the horse and seemed to hesitate for a while. Finally he glanced at Xiao Jiu, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he said nothing.

"Set off!"

The accompanying army left in a mighty manner, and Xiao Jiu didn't know until the end what Huang Xuan wanted to say to him in the end...

But forget it, the other party didn't say anything anyway, so there's no need to think about it no matter how much you speculate, it's meaningless.

The most important thing now is to seize the time to collect rations and supplies for the tens of thousands of people outside the city heading north. At the same time, some things have been delayed for long enough, and it is time to settle the accounts with some people...

There were many people standing behind to see them off. Xiao Jiu looked at the retreating team without looking back. He only narrowed his eyes inexplicably, and a dangerous dark light flashed in his eyes.

So the next day, many homes in Xun County suffered disaster, and a large number of soldiers rushed into the houses like hungry wolves.

"Who are you? How dare you come to my house to cause trouble?!"

A certain house owner shouted loudly.

"You have colluded with people from the Red Lotus Sect in an attempt to incite the rebellious people to rebel again! Following the order of the county chief, we are here to kill them all!"

The leader replied coldly. Without saying much, he directly ordered, "Do it!"

"What?!"

Everyone was shocked, and some people shouted in panic, "No way! This is slander!"

But as more people fell to the ground and died, the others came to their senses one after another, running and hiding.

"I belong to a century-old family in Xun County. Let's see who dares to touch me!"

"I don't accept it, let Xiao Jiu come to see me! He is killing innocent people indiscriminately! I want to sue the royal capital!"

"ah!!!"

Not long after, screams rang out in the mansion, occasionally accompanied by several curses and wails.

After a night passed, someone in the county discovered that several families in Xun County were covered in blood, and no one could hear a sound anymore.

At the same time, Xiao Jiu also publicized their crimes. The witnesses and material evidence were all there and could not be denied.

News spreads quickly. When such tragic news reaches people's ears, no one says it's wrong, but they can't help but feel cold all over.

It was so cruel! Who could not be frightened by Xiao Jiu's sudden attack of cruelty?

Nuo Da's family, with hundreds of members, was wiped out immediately. This was done by a young man, and the name of County Sheriff Xiao Jiu gradually became popular among the people.

Several other aristocratic families in Xun County were also frightened. Some of them had evil intentions in their hearts and escaped. They were frightened and sick and hid in their homes. Who knows?

On the day when he first heard about this, Le Wei opened the door and saw Xiao Jiu personally coming to the door with a car full of treasures and goods.

Le Wei: "..."

With sharp eyes, he saw a little blood stain on an open box of coins in the courtyard. His eyes twitched, as if he had a cramp, and he stuttered when he spoke, "Xiao...what did nephew Xian Xiao bring these things here for?"

Dozens of soldiers were moving things back and forth from the carriage. Xiao Jiu and Le Wei stood in front of the house, looking at the mountains of property that were slowly piling up. Le Wei felt his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys aching.

Xiao Jiu's expression was warm, "Of course I want to ask my uncle to buy rice and clothes for the winter."

Le Wei's face was stiff, and he forced a smile, "Those things about my nephew are..."

Although I have guessed it, I still want to be sure, where do these things come from?

Xiao Jiu said "Oh" and said casually, "Things without owners can naturally be used."

"Their master was killed by me."

Le Wei secretly thought that indeed, the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely, and his whole body became stiff.

Seeing how calm the young man said, and not caring at all about the massacre of so many people in the past, Le Wei felt a chill in his heart. He suddenly realized that he might have misjudged Xiao Jiu before, and that the other party might not be as he appeared.

Pure and good.

At the same time, he couldn't help but have doubts about the opponent's strength. Logically speaking, if he could divide his troops into multiple groups and annihilate several major families in one fell swoop, his troops would probably be as powerful as those in power in Xun County today.

Le Wei sighed in his heart, and became a little more vigilant. He did not dare to treat Xiao Jiu as his well-behaved nephew who used to make money with him, "I'm afraid about this matter..."

"uncle."

Just as he was about to refuse, Xiao Jiu interrupted him.

The young man stood leisurely, and the eyes that looked at him seemed to have a clear insight into everything. He could see through the vigilance and defense in Le Wei's heart, and also see his nervousness and fear.

He said in a soft voice, "Businessmen have great righteousness. I have always felt that the saying that no businessman is a traitor is not accurate enough. At least in my opinion, my uncle has always been a righteous businessman."

"You have extensive business connections, so it's definitely easier than me to get enough food, grass and clothing to survive the winter. At this moment, tens of thousands of refugees outside the city are waiting for this batch of property to be exchanged for supplies to go north."

Ironic?

Just killing a few aristocratic families can collect most of the travel expenses for tens of thousands of refugees. Xiao Jiu was silent, and the expression on his face gradually turned serious, "To be honest, the savings in my hands will not survive this winter. If I can't

Move them back to their hometowns as soon as possible, otherwise they will eventually die."

At that time, I am afraid that Xiao Jiu will have trouble raising the people under his command, let alone the tens of thousands of mouths that need to eat.

But once they are ignored, most of them will die.

If you want to survive, you must go north, and the sooner you leave, the better!

If he had set out one day earlier, Xiao Jiu would have been able to provide some subsidies for them to return home later. If it had been later, when all the money and food in his hands had been used up, he would not be able to help them even if he wanted to.

Le Wei could feel the urgency of the matter, but he couldn't help but ask Xiao Jiu, "Aren't you afraid of causing dissatisfaction among the families in Xun County by acting like this?"

Xiao Jiu's methods were too harsh. It can be said that Xun County has not experienced such a large-scale massacre for a long time, and it was the Xun County family that was wiped out.

When Le Wei mentioned this, his heart couldn't help but tremble.

Xiao Jiu looked at him with deep eyes, neither sad nor happy, but said calmly, "Uncle, do you think that if I let them go, they will make things easier for me?"

How can it be!

If Xiao Jiu didn't have enough strength to compete with them, he might have been wiped out long ago.

This group of aloof people are equally greedy for life and afraid of death. Only by giving them a severe lesson can they know what fear is.

Le Wei couldn't help but was speechless for a while, and then he faltered and spat out a few words from his mouth, "But you are going too far..."

"That's all, at this point, my uncle is far inferior to you."

He wanted to say something, but halfway through, he suddenly sighed again and changed his words.

He could understand the logic, but not everyone could have Xiao Jiu's courage to kill at will.

"This matter is extremely important. There are countless businessmen in Xun County, but you have entrusted it to me. Aren't you afraid that I will fail?"

Having to suddenly shoulder such a heavy responsibility on his own, Le Wei still felt somewhat stressed.

"I only trust my uncle in this matter."

Seeing Xiao Jiu's serious and pleading eyes, and thinking of the chaos outside the city, Le Wei finally softened his heart.

He sighed, "I'll do my best."

Seeing that he agreed, Xiao Jiu was overjoyed and quickly responded, "Thank you, uncle."
