Chapter 216: He
"Remember, there are no monsters in this courtyard, only ancestors and immortals." Little Wei Yuan warned solemnly.
Xu Jingfeng seemed to understand but not quite, nodding repeatedly.
After the warning, Little Wei Yuan left the Xu mansion. From the old tree, one could see that the foundation of a big family was indeed terrifying. The Ningxi Xu family must have originally had plans to take root for a long time, which is why they left such an ancestral spirit with a limit combat power equivalent to the late stage of Dharma Form to guard it.
Little Wei Yuan had entered and exited the Xu mansion several times before, mostly following Xu Jingfeng, and there was mostly Zhu Yuanjin secretly taking action to cover up, so the old tree didn't sense anything at all. But if Yuan Qingyan wanted to enter the old mansion to kill Xu Jingfeng, he would have to kick a hard iron plate.
After leaving the Xu mansion, Little Wei Yuan didn't stop for a moment, bypassed toward the northeast, merged with the knights who came from the realm on the way, merged into fifty riders, and disappeared into the wilderness in the blink of an eye.
The eastern border of Ningxi County was originally the jurisdiction of three counties, but now it had become a white land.
The original main officials and followers of the three counties had been moved to the west by Little Wei Yuan, and the common people had been driven to the Qingming Realm by Yuan Qingyan. Now there were only a few military forts stationed at the key points, cutting off east-west traffic.
The Shaman Domain was dense with forests and countless swamps, and there were not many roads for large merchant caravans to walk. If a road had no merchant caravans coming and going, it would be abandoned in less than a year and invaded by the forest.
Little Wei Yuan had already found out that Yuan Qingyan had deployed over seven thousand people on the entire eastern line, distributed in six military forts of various sizes. At this moment, in front of him was one of the military forts, stationed with a thousand people.
Ten masked knights appeared in front of the military fort and slowly approached. The defenders on the camp wall had long discovered them and immediately turned the bed crossbows over. An officer climbed onto the wall and shouted loudly, "A group of guys hiding their heads and showing their tails, who are you? If you dare to approach again, don't blame the crossbow arrows for being merciless!"
The leading knight adjusted his iron mask and said, "We are the Fifty Great Thieves of the Maofei Zhan Tian Gang! Now the gang is short of food and clothing, and I heard that the military gentlemen's days are moist, so I came to borrow some money and food."
The officer laughed in anger, "Borrowing food from the official army, you really have blind dog eyes! Are you all crazy from poverty?"
The knight laughed until he showed a mouthful of snow-white teeth, "This general is right, we are crazy from poverty. There is no one in this Western Region who is not crazy, but this madness is all forced by you. Do it!"
The officer originally wanted to laugh out loud, ten people also dare to attack the camp?
However, just at this moment, powerful auras rose from the left and right in the rear, and dozens of knights split into two teams and rushed directly at the military fort!
The military fort was in chaos, several powerful auras rose, and several officers were shocked and angry, biting the bullet to meet the knights who killed into the military fort. These knights wore masks, each holding a long spear, and after arriving outside the military fort, they abandoned their warhorses and flew directly into the military fort!
Dozens of riders were all Dao Foundation cultivators!
The officers were shocked, but it was too late to escape at this time, so they could only bite the bullet and top it. Then several knights surrounded an officer, pointing their long spears at the officer's vital parts, followed by a series of roars! Gunsmoke filled the air, and for a while, nothing could be seen, and the officers fell down one by one.
The officers were only felt a surge of fire in front of their eyes in an instant, as if they had been chiseled by several heavy hammers at the same time, and they were seriously injured and landed. Until they fell to the ground, they realized that the spearheads of those long spears could actually be fired!
If it were one-on-one, it would be easy to handle, but every officer was surrounded and ambushed by four or five knights at the same time, and in the blink of an eye, they were all wiped out.
A military fort of a thousand people generally configured about ten Dao Foundation officers; now the officers were all put down, and the remaining soldiers were put down by Dao techniques, and the rest lost their will to fight and all surrendered to the ground.
The knights lifted the seriously injured officers to the center of the school field in the camp, and then drove all the soldiers to the school field and lined them up.
At this time, some of the officers cursed, preferring death to surrender; some knelt and begged for mercy, tears and snot flowing, and their expressions were all different.
However, the Fifty Great Thieves of Maofei Zhan Tian were unmoved, ignoring the officers' reactions, just searching their bodies and stripping their clothes. In the blink of an eye, all the officers were stripped naked and tied up in one place.
After the officers were stripped, it was the soldiers' turn. However, the soldiers stripped themselves and put all their armor, military equipment, and personal clothing in the designated place. With ten naked superiors as examples, the soldiers no longer resisted, and in the blink of an eye, there were over a thousand naked pigs on the school field. There were also a few girls among the Fifty Great Thieves, who covered their mouths and giggled at this time, aiming their eyes at the people with special sizes.
Next, the thieves let the soldiers load the grain, armor, and military equipment onto the carts, and the bed crossbows were also dismantled and loaded onto the carts. All the official soldiers' personal clothing was piled together and burned with a fire.
After doing all this, a masked knight walked to the soldiers and said, "Those who have reached the Great Completion of Body Forging or are close to it, and have no worries at home, those who want to join us, come out now. I can't promise you glory and wealth, but I can promise you a Dao Foundation!"
The knight waited for a moment before two soldiers came out hesitantly. The knight didn't ask much, took the two people to escort the carts on the road, and then burned the military fort with a fire.
The cart team left the camp for ten miles, and there were already over a hundred people to meet them, while the Fifty Great Thieves went straight to the next military fort.
Within a day, the Fifty Great Thieves fought across a thousand miles, took down five military forts in one breath, stripped four thousand soldiers naked, and all the military equipment, armor, and grain were transported away, and over a dozen soldiers who had reached the Great Completion of Body Forging were also taken away.
At this time, on the entire eastern line, there was only one military fort guarded by three thousand people left. A masked knight came outside this military fort to provoke, threatening that if they dared to leave the camp for fifty miles, they would be wiped out.
So arrogant, how could the official army generals endure it? Immediately, someone left the camp to fight one-on-one.
As a result, that masked knight beat down seven or eight generals in succession, each battle was light and easy, hitting the opponent's weaknesses and vital parts, and putting them down in two or three moves.
The generals then realized in horror that this knight was actually a Heaven Foundation!
The main official in the camp was in the late stage of Dao Foundation, but he didn't dare to fight at this time, and could only watch the person show off, leave a pile of harsh words, and go away, and the morale in the army fell to the bottom for a while.
!.
The next day, the intelligence came, and knowing that the other military forts had all fallen, that assistant general was even more terrified, ordering the four gates to be closed, no one was allowed to go out, and at the same time sent people to Yuan Qingyan for rescue.
At this time, in the County Governor's mansion, Yuan Qingyan sat in the government office, his face iron-blue, reading the battle reports sent up one by one. Sitting on the left and right in the room were a general and several officials, most of whom were expressionless, except for the Xu-surnamed general.
On Yuan Qingyan's left was the Xu-surnamed general, who was sitting lazily at this time, looking at the general opposite from time to time, showing disdain.
Before he finished reading, Yuan Qingyan slapped the table heavily, angrily, "What Fifty Great Thieves of Maofei Zhan Tian, it's clearly Little Wei Yuan!"
All the officials were silent; none of those who could reach this position were fools, everyone knew that the Maofei Zhan Tian Gang was disguised by Little Wei Yuan, but then what?
One wave had not settled, another wave rose.
A soldier came in to report that the private secretary and the accompanying soldiers had been found and brought back, and they were now lying outside the house.
The word used by this soldier made Yuan Qingyan's heart sink, so he ordered them to be brought in. In the blink of an eye, several people covered in mud were brought into the room, all of them on their last breath, their hands and feet clearly deformed, obviously broken by someone.
"What big guts!" Yuan Qingyan stood up and slapped the table! "Someone! Go to the Xu family immediately, let Xu Jingfeng come to see me!"
The Xu mansion was in the north of the town, and the County Governor's office was in the south of the town, less than ten miles apart, so in the blink of an eye, a runner reported back: "My lord, that Xu Jingfeng said... he is busy."
With a "bang," the teacup in Yuan Qingyan's hand smashed to pieces on the ground.
