The first Taoist priest of the Tang Dynasty

Zhong Wen spoke again.

Although this place is only sixty miles away from Yun Township on the mountain road, but I have traveled this way, let alone pedestrians, and there is not even a carriage or anything.

Come to think of it, this official road may be rarely used by people.

And when I ran into bandits, maybe those pedestrians, merchants, etc., might give up this official road because bandits robbed this official road.

Although this official road is hidden in the mountains and forests, but if you really want to talk about bandits, it is definitely not the reason why those merchants gave up this official road. Zhong Wenke guessed the reason wrong.

There must be bandits, but the bandits that Zhong Wen has encountered so far.

Just as Zhong Wen guessed, this is not a group of serious bandits, they don't even have a decent weapon, how can they be bandits.

Sixty miles away from Yunxiang, if there were bandits in this place, they would have been wiped out by the garrison of Yunxiang long ago.

"We didn't eat, we really didn't. Let's go. Although my mother and I believe in Bodhisattvas, my second mother believes in the Taoist monarch. If my second mother finds out that I robbed a Taoist priest, my second mother You must beat me to death."

After hearing Zhong Wen's words, the leading man hurriedly asked several of his subordinates to step aside so that Zhong Wen could pass.

From the man's words, it can be heard that these people are not bandits at all.

"Pindao came from Yunxiang. It has been a day's journey. I am already hungry. A few good guys, please give me some food. You won't die without saving your life. This is against the Tao." Your will."

Zhong Wen understood what the bandit man said.

Now, I'm ready to stick to these so-called bandits.

"Master Dao, we really didn't eat, otherwise, we wouldn't have come out to rob the Dao."

One of the bandits, after hearing Zhong Wen's words, hurried out and explained to Zhong Wen.

Although they came to rob the official road, they waited in the forest all day today. After waiting for a day, they waited for someone like Zhong Wen, and he was still a little Taoist priest.

Although it doesn't matter if you rob a little Taoist priest, as Zhong Wen said, he doesn't have food, and he does have some money.

But just as these men thought, the Taoist priests in the Taoist temple seemed to be good people, and in the past, I often saw some monks and Taoists giving alms, and even helping the poor.

In the minds of the bandits, they basically gave up on the idea of ​​robbing the little Taoist priest in front of them.

And the leading man, after hearing Zhong Wen's words, called his accomplices and began to retreat into the Guandao mountain forest.

He didn't want to be in trouble, and maybe a big one.

As he said, his second mother is a woman who believes in the Taoist monarch. If he really robbed a Taoist priest and his second mother found out, it would be a trivial matter to be beaten, and he might even be pointed at him. If he scolds for a few days, his life will be difficult.

Zhong Wen watched these people retreat into the forest, and he basically understood in his heart. The leader of the man knew who he was by listening to his words. He was simple and stupid.

He has some strength and a strong body, otherwise, he would not be the leader of these bandits.

Robbery, of course, takes force as the most important thing.

Just like these bandits, whoever is strong and whoever has the most strength will determine the leader.

But this leader was finally elected, and the Dao was also robbed, but now, he started to retreat, leaving Zhong Wen alone on the official Dao.

"I'll go. Robbers don't look like robbers. They leave as soon as they say it? It's an insult to the profession of robbers."

Zhong Wen was a little surprised when he saw these bandits leaving him behind and retreating directly to the forest.

However, the surprise is the surprise, I haven't got my dinner yet.

I can't say my own words in vain, and I have to find some food from these bandits.

Immediately afterwards, Zhong Wen walked over slowly, following behind those bandits.

"Daoist, Daoist, we really haven't eaten, really, I haven't eaten in two days, please go to another place to eat."

The bandits didn't expect that the person they were going to rob would follow.

Immediately, the bandits stopped and begged Zhong Wen.

"No, I have been hungry for a whole day, and I have no food in my stomach. Now you have robbed the poor Taoist, so the poor Taoist must follow you. If you don't give me some food, the poor Taoist will not leave."

In fact, Zhong Wen just wanted to see where these bandits lived, and to see the living conditions of these bandits. Of course, he was mainly curious.

I have watched many TV dramas in my previous life. The bandits in the TV dramas have strongholds that are easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they have wine, meat, and women.

However, according to Zhong Wen's guess, these so-called bandits probably don't have any strongholds that are easy to defend and difficult to attack. As for whether there are any, seeing is believing.

Chapter 179 - This Bandit Is Not That Bandit

It was getting late, and these bandits chose to retreat from the official road into the forest at this time, probably preparing to go back to their cottage.

And Zhong Wen chose to keep up, entirely out of curiosity.

But this, the curiosity is greater than the cat, I don't know if I will be killed by my own curiosity.

As the saying goes, curiosity killed the cat.

Although Zhong Wen is not a cat, his curiosity is too great.

"Daoist, we really didn't eat. If, if, you really want to follow up again, we will not be polite."

The man named leader didn't know what to do, so he had to put on a fierce face and yelled at Zhong Wen.

"Pindao has lived enough anyway, come on, take your broken knife, and slash Pindao's neck, so that you can also save some food."

At this time, Zhong Wen, like a rogue, said such shameless words, which really made the leading man not know what to do.

The rest of the men looked at Zhong Wen in surprise when they heard these words came from a priest.

"Hmph, don't follow us even if you die."

The leading man looked at the little Taoist priest in front of him, so shameless, he also looked at a loss.

However, in the end, he still chose to ignore Zhong Wen, and led a few bandits to the side of the forest quickly.

"Haha, Xiao Mian, he still learns how to rob, and doesn't even have the courage to kill people."

Zhong Wen looked at the few people who left, and felt amused.

He learned how to rob, but he didn't dare to kill. This is not a qualified bandit, he is probably just some ordinary peasants.

There is no murderous intent in the whole body, and there is no murderous intent in the eyes. Is this calamity so easy to fight?

After that, Zhong Wen didn't think about anything anymore, and slowly hung behind these bandits.

"Little Taoist, don't follow us anymore, otherwise, if you die in this forest, we won't dig a hole for you and bury you."

The leading man looked back and saw the little Taoist priest following him, and he didn't know how to get rid of this shameless little Taoist priest.

The horror of this mountain forest is clear in his heart.

If it weren't for the daytime, he wouldn't dare to come in.

However, they still have a few people who are traveling with them, and if there were any beasts, they wouldn't dare to show up when there were so many people.As for being alone in this mountain forest, it's hard to say.

Zhong Wen didn't reply, just hanging behind them.

Whether they are trotting or hurrying, in short, they are hanging behind them.

As for the danger in this mountain forest, Zhong Wen seemed to have no sense of it at all.

The mountains and forests have long been Zhong Wen's world, so why would he be afraid?

Unless it was night, he still needed to pay more attention, and right now, although the sun was hanging on the top of the mountain, at least for now, those beasts in the mountains and forests were not likely to appear randomly.

As far as Zhong Wen knew.

In the mountains and forests of this era, there are many large beasts.

Moreover, the place I was in was Zhongnan Mountain to the northwest. If I think about it, there are many large beasts.

After two or three quarters of an hour, the sun finally set.

"Little Taoist, I beg you, you really don't want to follow us anymore."

When the bandits in front stopped to rest, they saw Zhong Wen hanging behind them again.

The leading man approached Zhong Wen directly, begging with an aggrieved face.

"I didn't follow you guys. This mountain forest is so big. I'll take a look around. There is no road here. You didn't build it."

Zhong Wen turned his head, looked around, and responded to the man with a blank face.

"Little Taoist priest, this is a mountain forest, there are tigers, wolves and bears everywhere, if you jump out of any one, you will die. The sun has already set, you should leave quickly."

That man was really afraid of Zhong Wen.

The object of robbery, but at this time, has become the person he worries about.

The scene in front of him made Zhong Wen want to laugh but it wasn't funny, so he could only endure it.

At the beginning, I was the one who was robbed by him, but now, I am the one who this man reminds me to be careful, and this style of painting has changed too quickly.

"It's nothing, Pindao didn't want to live anymore, and he died when he died."

Zhong Wen endured some discomfort, but he had no choice but to continue with his business, showing a smiling face, looking at the man and responding.

"I don't care about you anymore. If you want to die, don't follow us to die. Hmph, what should be said, I also said."

After the man finished speaking, he snorted angrily, turned around and returned to those men, sat down and rested.

The man reminded Zhong Wen so much, in fact, it was because they were about to reach their village.

Although, their village is in this mountain forest, far away from the town, and has some similarities with Longquan Village.

However, Longquan Village is much better than them. At least, Longquan Village still has fields to grow, while they don't even have any fields, and they have opened up some land.

As long as Zhong Wen followed them like this, he was really worried that Zhong Wen, a little Taoist, would know where they were.

Although the sun has set now, as long as he runs faster, he can return to the official road, at least, he can return to Yunxiang along the official road.

It's just that that's the man's idea, not Zhong Wen's.

Zhong Wen was just curious why these men became bandits to rob Dao, and it was his Dao that robbed him.

Although he didn't rob anything, he still stained his oil bottle.

"Brother Xiong, what if the little Taoist doesn't leave? We are less than five miles away from the village. If we go any further, the little Taoist will definitely know about our village."

A young man spoke up and said to the leading man.

But there are many worries hanging on his face, he is afraid that the little Taoist priest who is following them will know the location of their village.

"Little Leopard, how can I persuade the little Taoist not to leave? Is it really necessary to kill him? I dare not kill anyone."

The leading man called Big Bear responded to the little leopard who spoke.

"Big Bear, that little Taoist doesn't look like a bad guy, let's not kill him."

Another young man said.

"Mice, that little Taoist is too annoying. I've tried to persuade him several times, but he won't leave. I don't know if he's good or bad. Besides, I don't dare to kill him."

Big Bear knew in his heart that to kill someone, he would be cursed by the mountain god, and he didn't dare.

He really dared to kill a beast or something, but when it came to killing someone, it basically didn't match his character at all.

As the sun set in the west, the mountains and forests began to gradually darken at this time.

Zhong Wen stood not far from those men, shaking his head, looking around as if he had nothing to do.

As for those few men, they didn't know what to do.

They dare not kill people.

But Zhong Wen was so shameless that they didn't know how to treat him.

"Brother Bear, why don't we take that little Taoist priest back to the village."

The young man named Mouse spoke to Big Bear.

However, his eyes kept glancing in the direction where Zhong Wen was.

He was a timid young man, to be able to follow Big Bear out to rob Dao today was because he was cruel.

"No, that little Taoist priest can't go to our village. If he tells others where our village is, then we will suffer."

A man suddenly objected to the mouse's words.

"Da Yang is right, we can't let that little Taoist know where our village is."

Big Bear nodded in agreement and said.

However, killing can't kill, and booming can't leave, they don't know what to do.
