As soon as he finished speaking, there was the sound of horse hooves outside, mixed with the neighing of horses.
"Sir, it's not good, we encountered horse thieves." Ma An said anxiously.
Hearing that there were horse thieves, Ye Huan immediately became nervous and said anxiously: "Sir, please cooperate a little bit and don't resist. It would be best if you can give them some money to eliminate the trouble."
Ye Xiong opened the curtain and looked outside, only to see that the carriage was surrounded by more than a dozen horses. Sitting on the horses were more than a dozen men and women, all of whom looked fierce. The leader was even more ferocious, with a distinctive scar on his face.
obvious.
"I built this mountain and planted this tree. I want to pass by here and leave some money." Scarface, the leader, shouted loudly.
Ye Xiong got off the carriage and looked at the dozen or so people. They were all powerful and the horses were strong, and he immediately wanted to recruit people.
"How much is the aisle fee? You decide on a price." Ye Xiong said calmly.
"A bunch of money."
A bunch of money is not a small amount, and ordinary people may not be able to save it for several years, but for Ye Xiong, it is only a small amount.
"If I give you money, will you let me go?" Ye Xiong continued to ask.
"This is natural, I keep my word." Scarface said.
"Hold on."
Lu Qing turned around and entered the carriage, taking out the entire box containing the money.
"Sir, don't show your money!" Ye Huanwan said urgently.
"It'll be okay."
After taking the box out, Lu Qing opened it on the spot, and the golden and silver light suddenly blinded everyone's eyes.
The dozen or so horse thieves were immediately blinded, their breathing became rapid, some of them opened their mouths wide, and saliva kept flowing down.
Having been horse thieves for so long, they have never seen so much money.
"Sir, you are so arrogant..." Ma An couldn't continue.
After all, he is too young and does not know how to keep his money hidden.
Ye Xiong took out a bunch of silver coins and threw them directly, falling into Scarface's hand.
"I have already given you the money. You should fulfill your promise and let us go, right?" Ye Xiong said.
Scarface weighed the money, his eyes fell on Ye Xiong, and he hesitated immediately.
Just grab it. If it doesn't meet your own rules, don't grab it. Who would be willing to watch so much money slip away?
What worries him most is that this guy dares to make a fortune in front of so many people. Where does he have the courage?
Scarface couldn't help but look around, pondering whether there was an ambush around, deliberately trying to make a fool of himself.
"You can't keep your word, right?" Ye Xiong asked again.
"I, Cheng Fang, will naturally do the talking. Let's go." Cheng Fang waved his hand.
"Brother, if I don't leave, I have to steal this wealth."
"Don't rob the bastard if you have money. With such a big sum of money, we can change our identities and change our minds, so we don't have to be thieves anymore."
"Brother, I agree with the fifth and sixth brothers."
Several of Cheng Fang's accomplices refused to leave and stared at Ye Xiong, almost rushing over to grab it.
"You have forgotten our principles. If we rob it, no one will dare to come here if others find out in the future." Cheng Fang said.
"Let's kill all three of them without anyone noticing. Who would know?"
"Brother, let's just do this and we won't do it again in the future."
A group of horse thieves started discussing.
When Ma An and Ye Huan heard this, they trembled and did not dare to breathe.
Ye Xiong, on the other hand, looked calm and calm, saying nothing and waiting.
If Cheng Fang couldn't keep his word and still chose to rob him, he would kill him without hesitation.
"Being a man must be moral. If you don't keep your word, how can we mess around in the future?" Cheng Fang decided to leave.
"Brother, if you don't take action, I will grab it."
Regardless of whether Cheng Fangtong disagreed, a big man beside him rushed over on horseback. When he was approaching Ye Xiong, his body jumped up high, like a roc flying through the sky, and landed next to Ye Xiong.
Ye Xiong suddenly jumped up on the spot, swept his right leg in the air, and whipped out with a whip kick, hitting the big man's neck right in the middle.
There was a gurgling sound, and the big man's neck immediately twisted, and his body was kicked out. When he fell, he had turned into a dead body.
Kicked someone to death.
Everyone around was shocked. They never expected that Ye Xiong's small body could have such power.
"If you dare to kill my sixth brother, I'll fight him."
"kill."
"kill."
The sound of horse hooves suddenly sounded, and the thumping sound came continuously, and a group of horse thieves drew their weapons and rushed towards them.
Ye Xiong did not retreat but advanced, faced the first horse, and hit the first horse on the head with a cannon punch.
The horse collapsed instantly, throwing the man off. Ye Xiong stepped on the man's head, trampling him to death.
Then he picked up his knife and rushed out.
In less than three minutes, more than a dozen men were all beheaded, no one survived, and the ground was stained red with blood.
Cheng Zang watched from a distance and did not leave. In addition to shock and fear, he felt even more sad.
Boom!
He drew his sword and rushed over on horseback.
All his men are dead. If he survives quietly, how will he explain to his men's families when he goes back?
Ye Xiong flew up with his kick, sending him and his horse flying more than ten meters away.
Cheng Fang fell to the ground, turned over, and stared at Ye Xiong. Only then did he realize how terrifying the strength of the person in front of him was.
"Who are you?" He had never seen such a strong person in his life.
"My surname is Ye, and my last name is Xiong."
"But the leader of the Ye Family Army?"
"you know me?"
Cheng Fang was surprised and happy. He suddenly knelt down and said, "Cheng Fang is blind and doesn't know it's Mr. Ye. If he knew it was Mr. Ye, I wouldn't dare to rob you if I gave Cheng a million times more courage."
This place is already fifty or sixty kilometers away from the small town of Nanping. He didn't expect that his reputation would spread so far, and Ye Xiong was also a little surprised.
"How do you know me?"
"I am Xiangyang Town."
"You are from Xiangyang Town, how did you end up here and become a bandit?"
"In my early years, I offended the rich man in the town because of a fight, so I had to hide here to avoid being arrested. During these days, I often heard about your name, saying that you rebelled against the Xia Dynasty, and the officers and soldiers failed several times to encircle and suppress them, but they all failed. I
I’ve always wanted to seek refuge, but I didn’t expect to meet him here.”
Ye Xiong thought for a moment. Cheng Fang seemed to be quite principled and moral.
"I am short of men, and I wanted to recruit you just now, so I exposed my money on purpose. Unfortunately, among you, you are the only one who passed the test. Are you willing to join our Ye Family Army?" Ye Xiong asked.
"Of course I do."
"I'll write you a document. You go to Nanping Town, find Wu Dezhi, give him the document, and he will settle you."
"Thank you, Mr. Ye."
Ye Xiong turned around and entered the carriage, picked up a pen and wrote quickly. After a while, he took out the document and handed it to him.
"Thank you, sir. Cheng Fang will definitely follow you until death." Cheng Fang was surprised and happy, and then asked: "Sir, can I bring some of my brothers to join you together?"
"Those who are loyal can do it, but none of those just now can do it." Ye Xiong said seriously.
"Yes, sir." Cheng Fang glanced at the corpses of his men and asked, "Sir, can I take their corpses back for burial?"
"no problem."
Ye Xiong nodded, got on the carriage, and ordered Ma An to drive away.
