Chapter 264 Pretending to be a ghost and tricking Haiwa
Ten miles south of Balizhuang, there is a tea shed with hidden stakes of the White Lotus Sect. "Nan Batian" Nan Yunshan led the outpost without alerting the "shop owner". More than a hundred people drove a carriage and bypassed the boundary of Balizhuang.
Go north.
The carriage drove into a cedar forest. Li Guolou glanced at Fei Lingxue and said, "Feihu, you can leave. Go north. Don't look back, otherwise you will be shot."
"Hey, I've made a loss on this deal. A beggar is not worth a hundred taels of silver." Fei Lingxue felt unwilling but had no choice but to do so.
Li Guolou cupped his fists and said, "Feihu, it's your fate to meet me. If you meet someone else, your six horses will no longer be yours."
Fei Lingxue said arrogantly: "Fake foreign devil, I planted this tree and drove this road. All the merchants who come from here will look at my face."
Li Guolou glanced at the two companions beside Fei Lingxue. There should be their companions on the road. This time the horse thief gave him face and there was no extra trouble. It is best not to turn against each other in the future. He smiled and said: "Now that you know my name
No., the three of you will come to see me in the capital later, I can still afford a meal."
"Okay! Fake foreign devils, we have become rich and will come to the capital to have a good time. We will find you then." The bearded horse thief Dao Sheath Yun responded unceremoniously.
This is the rule of the rivers and lakes, which is to tell Li Guolou that they, a group of horse thieves, will come to the capital to live happily in the future, and that Li Guolou guarantees their safety and accommodation, their friends on the road, and who controls whose territory. Some of the horse thieves are famous.
Outside, there are wanted orders issued by the government, but as long as these people come to the capital to befriend Li Guolou, Li Guolou will ensure their safety. When they have had enough of the colorful world in the capital, Li Guolou will finally deliver them safely.
This commitment only ends when they leave the capital.
In the past, this kind of thing was the responsibility of the escort bureau. People who did business without capital in the underworld would deal with people like Nan Yunshan, the master of the Nantian Escort Bureau.
People would directly do business with big businessmen (such as Qiao Zhiyong, the owner of Fu Sheng Gong Trading Company) or even official officials.
Li Guolou said proudly: "I'm sure, don't worry, Scabbard Yun, you're here, I'll treat you to some flower wine."
"Hahahaha!" The three horse thieves laughed wildly together, swung their whips in a show of force, and left the convoy towards the north.
Fei Lingxue galloped on the horse, leaving the saddle and standing on the green horse, showing off her equestrian skills, as if a dragonfly danced lightly on the water. Far away, long whistles came continuously, showing off her practiced skills.
Lion's roar skill.
"Bah!" Gao Yao Wuyun yelled angrily: "What the hell is this? It's all fake."
Li Guolou said seriously: "Get ready for action!"
The tarpaulin on the carriage was pulled down, revealing the firearms and ammunition inside. People were distributing weapons, with eager expressions on everyone's faces.
"Get in line!" Ai Hai gave a military salute to Li Guolou, waved his hand and led a column to set off towards Yunmeng Mountain in the distance.
Yunmeng Mountain is more than 1,000 meters above sea level and is located in the Yanshan Mountains. It is a natural barrier for the capital. Yunmeng Mountain is towering, with deep valleys, strange peaks and rocks, waterfalls and springs everywhere, and unpredictable clouds and mists.
The trees and flowers are lush and the natural scenery is very beautiful.
Near dusk, Li Guolou led more than a hundred people to hide on both sides of the canyon. You can also see deep ditches suddenly appearing on the flat rock mass. These are alluvial ditches formed in the early stages of river development.
Less than three miles away is Balizhuang. The high rammed earth wall looks like a row of mahjong tiles. Under the night, the smoke is lingering, and the crowing of cocks and the barking of dogs can be faintly heard.
The main attack direction of this operation was from the south. Li Guolou and his troops took the lead in lurking in the ravines to the north to prevent the White Lotus cultists in Bali Village from escaping into Yunmeng Mountain.
Rebels are difficult to eliminate because they are good at escaping. When fighting with rebels, in addition to considering the outcome and not falling into the traps laid by the rebels, the most important thing is to block the escape route of the rebels. The resurgent rebels are difficult to guard against. Nowadays, there are many
The Qing Empire implemented a local governor-responsibility system, which gave rebels an opportunity to grow. Once a rebel bandit name was eliminated, it would not take long for it to reappear in other places. The mountains connecting several provinces nourished countless rebels.
People who are both farmers and bandits cannot tell the difference. The government calls them "robbers", which means people who do not pay food when they are not on duty. Very few rebel bandits go straight to heaven to let the central government know.
Most of the rebel bandits, for the sake of political achievements and official titles, turned a blind eye and allowed the rebel bandits to roam around and commit crimes in areas where no one was concerned.
Ai Hai groped along the ravine and whispered: "Captain Li, we caught a shepherd boy and twenty-three sheep. What do you think we should do?"
"This;;;;;;" Li Guolou was stunned for a moment. The mopping up operation is planned to start early tomorrow morning. A small thing happened here, but it may change the outcome of the mopping up operation. If the rebels in Balizhuang know
If there is an ambush by officers and soldiers in Yunmeng Mountain in the north, they will break out early to the west. The west is commanded by Yao Cuo. At this time, they have not reached the designated place, their pockets are not tightened, and they are escaped by the Hokage and others. Isn't all the previous efforts wasted?
"Sheepboy, is it easy to fool me?" Li Guolou asked.
"My name is Haiwa. I'm just pretending to be stupid. I think he's just a little spy." Ai Hai is a policeman and is good at catching people's facial expressions. It's very difficult to deceive the policeman's eyes.
Gao Yao Wuyun came up and said, "Boss, how about I go scare him."
Li Guolou shook his head and said: "No, children all have a rebellious mentality. Haiwa has been deceived by the mysterious things of the White Lotus Sect, thinking that he has really met the god and will be willing to obey the Hokage's command. If you want to
Haiwa is being used by us, so I will act as a god who is more skilled than Naruto, and slander Naruto as a demon. I am here to subjugate demons. You are my trust, and you can best subdue Haiwa. If you can't
If so, we can only detain Haiwa and make the people in the village think that Haiwa fell into a deep ditch."
"Hehehehe!" Ai Hai giggled a few times, turned around and said: "God of Death, go out with me, and you will act like you are."
"Tie!" Gao Yao Wuyun had a strange look on his face. She wanted to see what miracles Li Guolou had done to impress her.
In a secluded grove, Ai Hai stroked Haiwa's bald head and said with a smile: "Haiwa, you are just like me. Not a blade of grass grows. Don't be afraid. We are officers and soldiers, a people's team. We will not bully the common people.
I came to Balizhuang to suppress bandits, Haiwa, do you still have anyone at home?"
The young man Lang Haiwa giggled innocently and said: "Bald sir, I work as a herdsman for the landlord Zhou Jietong's family, and I live in the sheepfold."
Next to her, Gao Yao Wuyun had a fierce look on her face, which immediately darkened. She had seen how Mongolian serf owners treated their slaves, and the value of a sheepherding boy was at most five sheep.
Why did the Qing Empire continue to have rebellions and banditry? The population explosion was the triggering factor. At this time, the Qing Dynasty had reached a population of more than 400 million, and there were countless impoverished refugees. The most basic living conditions for a human being, Haiwa, a shepherd boy,
There are also people all over the country. Bewitched by people with ulterior motives, they will become passionate and impulsive, and embark on the underworld of burning, killing and looting. It is also caused by the cannibal society. The horrible and cruel reality makes people struggle on the edge of death.
"Oh, Haiwa, if you don't drive the sheep back to landlord Zhou Jietong, will anyone come looking for you?" Ai Hai knew that landlord Zhou Jietong was dead, so he wanted to see if Haiwa would lie.
Haiwa shook his head and said: "Bald sir, it's spring now. I often don't go back to the village to spend the night. Mr. Zhou won't send anyone to find me."
Seeing that Haiwa's lie sounded like the truth, Gao Yao Wuyun couldn't hold it anymore and shouted: "Little bald man, why did you cut down the news tree just now, and who were you reporting the news to?"
Haiwa scratched her head and said: "Aunt Mongolia, this is our Master Zhou's rule. We are afraid that robbers will come to our village. Your skills are so good, I didn't even notice that the person has reached my feet. Hehehehehe!"
Ai Hai chuckled and said: "This is because we are teachers of justice and have invited gods to help. Is there a little dwarf with red spots on his neck coming to your village? That person is Suo Ming Wuchang from hell."
The little dwarf is called Naruto. He first eats the flesh of rich people and sucks the blood of women. After eating the fat meat of rich people and sucking all the blood of young women, he will eat the flesh of children when the fifteenth month is full.
Baby, you won’t survive the full moon.”
The ghastly words made Haiwa tremble. The red clouds at dusk shrouded the western sky, as if he saw his own blood, and he said with true feelings: "Bald chief, you lied, thinking that I was a three-year-old child, taking advantage of ghosts."
Scare people."
"Hahahaha!" Li Guolou laughed heartily, wearing a navy blue robe, shaking his fan, and walked on the green grass into the woods.
"Haiwa, I, Zhuge Divine Fortune Teller, never lie. The red spot on Naruto's face is the talisman imprinted by me. I originally hoped that Naruto could change his evil ways and become good, but I didn't expect that he would go to Balizhuang to eat people again.
"
Li Guolou glared angrily at Gao Yao Wuyun who was snickering next to him. He stretched out his left palm and made random calculations. Sa Raner smiled and said: "Haiwa, do you think Pindao's calculations are accurate? Zhou Jietong's family is dead. You can sleep now."
On the kang instead of the sheepfold, right?"
"You, you, you! How did you know?" Haiwa couldn't pretend anymore, pointed at Li Guolou with a finger, and asked stammeringly.
Li Guolou flipped the fan gracefully, and the fan disappeared in an instant. It was as if a god came to the world and taught him: "Haiwa, your suffering days are over. The ancestors of the Three Saints asked you to accept the ninety-nine and eighty-one hardships."
, I’m here to enlighten you.”
"Wow;;;;;" Haiwa knelt on the ground, crying bitterly. His endless grievances moved the immortal master, and he was about to embark on the road of cultivating immortals.
Ai Hai and Gao Yao Wuyun couldn't help but kneel down and kowtow. They had long worshiped Li Guolou as a god. They would have no regrets in their lives by following Li Guolou.
Li Guolou looked at the scene in front of him and knew how powerful he was. If he wanted to rebel, thousands of people would fight to the death. Looking up at the vast mountains, he was at a loss as to where he would go in the future.
