Archery of Gongshou Rivers and Mountains

"This is really anticlimactic..." Ouyang Ke looked at the corpse on the ground—not the attacker's, but the night watchman's. It seemed that he hadn't reacted at all, and his throat was cut with a sharp knife.

The concealment and caution during the ambush, as well as the cleanliness and well-trained appearance on the corpse reminded me of those people who wanted to kill Wanyan Kang.It was a bit of a surprise that those people escaped like that.

Wanyan Kang was looking at the corpses of the enemies. He was also surprised because he also thought that these attackers were well-trained assassins or killers, but in fact, at least the two who fell on the ground may have some punches, but It can be seen from the calluses on the hands and the muscles on the body.They have learned some boxing, but they can't be said to be well-trained.

So which of his enemies sent such a moment to die?Even if you just give him a warning and threat with the meaning of "I already know your identity and where you are now", it is too childish.

"People from the beggar gang." But while Wanyan Kang was still thinking hard, Wynn had already made a final decision.It's just that this conclusion, in Wanyan Kang's ears, is really too absurd.

"The Beggars' Gang?" The beggar with the most prestigious reputation, the highest martial arts, the highest seniority, and the greatest power in the world, had a hot pot with him two days ago, "How could it be the Beggars' Gang?"

"The subordinates have always been trivial matters, so they never informed the governor, nor did they wake up." Huai En and Qi Nu looked at each other, both of them looked ashamed, and then Qi Nu told Wanyan Kang about the matter in detail.

Speaking of which, this matter is also one of the disadvantages caused by the influx of a large number of people into Shaanxi. If Shaanxi is said to be barren, it is too much, but it is indeed less flat land, less cultivated land, and less fertile land.Moreover, the climate is not good, and the food output is definitely not as good as those fertile lands.

But in recent years, because of the peace in Shaanxi, countless people have come to seek a way to survive. Those with some money are okay, but most of them are poor people with ragged clothes, children and children, and poor pockets.Fortunately, when Wan Yankang was here, most of the rich merchants and landlords in Shaanxi were dealt with honestly. No one in the grain store or oil store dared to take the opportunity to raise their prices.

Wynn and the others also selected strong men to join the army, which not only saved the lives of their family, but also enriched the soldiers.Most of the people in this year are generous, and those who have surplus food will give alms.Taoist temples can also provide shelter for some people.In addition, the government released grain - but Shaanxi is a place of long-term wars, and the harvest is not good, so it is conceivable that the official warehouse will not be able to release much grain.

All in all, various measures have taken in some refugees, but there are still more and more beggars in various cities.At this time, the beggar gang came out to show their power.

"If the beggar gang gathers these homeless people together, can they give them some food to survive?" Wan Yankang heard this and thought it would be a good thing, but he didn't understand Wynn's relationship with him. The begging slave actually had a look of bitterness and hatred.

"Dutong, you don't know what the beggar gang looks like." Huai En smiled bitterly.

Those "beggar gangs" that Wanyankang met in his previous life were indeed more wicked than the last.But after arriving here, in the world of Condor Shooting, he vaguely remembered that the gang of beggars were all good people, especially with a beggar like Hong Qigong as the leader.As a time traveler who first became the son of a prince and later became a high official in the frontier, it is really not surprising that he doesn't know how the Beggar Gang is.

But Wynn and the beggars both know what is going on in the beggar gang.

The Beggars' Gang is a Jianghu sect, and since it is a Jianghu sect, there are a few things that are indispensable: competing for territory, manpower, winning and losing, and fame.This has nothing to do with whether their leader is a good guy or a bad guy.But because they are beggars, ordinary gangs will not compete with them on most things.Therefore, the ones arguing with them are other beggars, those who have not joined the beggar gang.

The same is true in Shaanxi. It is natural for those who joined the beggar gang to bully the new refugees and drive them to the dirtiest, most chaotic, and most deserted corners.But robbing, murdering, rape, and even kidnapping and selling women and children is unnatural.Even sometimes, these hands will reach out to ordinary local people.

For example, when a large family released grain, the beggar gang gathered together and drove away the old, weak, women and children who really needed life-saving rations. Seeing this, the big family refused to release grain to them.The beggars actually beat up the big family and all their family members. If the officers and soldiers patrolling the city hadn't arrived in time, they would have made the city famous.

Another example is that more than a dozen families lost their children, including locals and refugees, boys and girls.The children were finally found, but several of them were already crazy. It turned out that a certain elder of the beggar gang said that they had intercourse with virgin boys and girls to nourish their health and replenish their vitality.

There was also the murderer who was caught on the spot, but was rescued abruptly by the gang of beggars who attacked the government.

Not to mention Wanyan Kang, even Ouyang Ke frowned more and more when he heard it.There are some things that they can't do at the White Camel Villa. I didn't expect the beggar gang...

"The Beggars' Gang can be regarded as a decent family." Ouyang Ke asked.

"I don't know." Wan Yankang shook his head. This is a complete disaster for the common people. "Qi Nu, you go back with me, Wynn, you are the one to come for this inspection."

"Dutong...many brothers want to see you."

"As soon as the matter here is over, I immediately went to confess my mistakes to them one by one with a drink in hand."

On the second day, Wanyankang, Ouyangke, and Qinu left the brigade—although Wynn was worried about their safety and asked them to share at least half of the soldiers, Wanyankang refused.It's Wynn who is in danger. After all, they only have one day's journey back to the city, and no matter what happens on the way, the three of them can get away.

Wynn couldn't resist, so he had to watch the three of them leave in the end.

After running out for a while, Wanyan Kang slowed down his horse and approached Ouyang Ke: "Does it hurt?"

"Your ability is not that great." Ouyang Ke glared at him, but the feeling in his heart could not be called annoyed at the moment, but naturally it couldn't be as sweet as his daughter's home, anyway...it was weird.

"Ah?" Wanyan Kang was taken aback, but his expression was a little unclear.

Ouyang Ke was also stunned, Wanyan Kang didn't ask that, so could it be... So Ouyang Ke's face also turned red, and when the two were teasing, Wanyan Kang loved to say that he was full of "fancy" intestines, so he naturally He refuted it every time, but it seemed that when something happened, he really liked to think about some "awkward" places.

"Wrapped in gauze, it doesn't hurt now."

"Do you want me to hold you and take a ride together?" It was not a full gallop when they went, but a normal trot on the road, and he and Ouyang Ke were not clumsy people, so at this speed, the horse could still carry the two of them of.If he miscalculated and the horse was tired, he could change to Ouyang Ke's horse.

"Okay." Ouyang Ke also responded bluntly. After a while, the rein of his horse was tied behind Wanyan Kang's saddle, and his men sat sideways in Wanyan Kang's arms.The only thing that makes Ouyang Ke dissatisfied is that they are about the same height, so he can't lean on his chest to listen to the heartbeat inside, but putting his head on his shoulder and hugging his back tightly is better than nothing...

Looking at his own family, Qi Nu couldn't help sighing in his heart.He didn't have the slightest affection for this idler and always lustful Mr. Ouyang.When he was still in the palace, he always thought that Dutong didn't throw this man out of the palace with his legs broken, it was really kindhearted.

A few years ago, when he saw each other again after the war, he was only happy in his heart, but he was pleasantly surprised when he saw the person Du Tong brought back... He never thought that Du Tong would end up with this dude.

Earlier, when he talked with Wynn in private, he always felt that it was the butterflies trained in the thousands of flowers that had done something outrageous and tempted his family.But after getting along for a long time, Mr. Ouyang's mouth is still annoying, but he and Du Tong are sincere.

I only hope that such a flirtatious person can be sincere for the rest of his life.Otherwise, if he hurts Du Tong's heart, even though he is highly skilled in martial arts, they still have ways to make his life worse than death!

At this time Ouyang Ke was blowing into Wanyan Kang's ear, or pinching his sensitive waist and abdomen. Fortunately, it was winter and he was wearing a lot of clothes, otherwise Wanyan Kang would probably be unable to hold back and make a fool of himself.And Qi Nu was also thinking about something in his mind, but this did not mean that all three of them were distracted.

But these three people are not children who take it for granted. They were just attacked last night. No matter what they are doing today, they have one eye watching and one ear listening.

That's why, when a tripping rope suddenly appeared on the road ahead of them, first Qi Nu, then Wanyan Kang, all pulled up the horse.The beggar jumped over first, but at the same time the horse jumped up, Wan Yankang said inwardly that there was another horse tied to the back of his saddle, and an unmanned horse had to escape such a sudden trap, but much trouble.

"It's all right." Wanyan Kang whispered to him, it turned out that he had already noticed something was wrong, although he was a step late because of his posture, the tied horse was also a step late to reach the position of the bridle.And Ouyang Ke had already unfolded the folding fan in his hand, he threw the fan out like a hidden weapon, it spun twice in mid-air, just cut off the horse's reins.

As expected, the following horse failed to jump over the bridle rope and fell to the ground neighing.But Wanyan Kang didn't have time to look at it at all, because there was a second road in front of him—Wanyan Kang couldn't help but think of Mr. Guan who was defeated in Maicheng—and at the same time, several dark arrows were shot from the bushes on both sides of the official road. out.

Fortunately, it was just three stumbling blocks, and both Qi Nu and Wanyan Kang could handle it, even if Wanyan Kang was still holding someone in his arms.Even Ouyang Ke can be said to have helped him, protecting him from the rain of arrows.Because most of the people who came wanted to capture the begging slave alive, or at least didn't want his life, but they killed someone like Wanyan Kang.

Finally the three of them rushed out, but they left without looking behind.

"Ouyang, it looks like you have to ride the horse yourself." After running a certain distance, Wanyan Kang's horse blocked in front of Qi Nu's horse.Although it is obviously not aimed at begging slaves, but sometimes things are like this. Ruya and the like have never had eyes.

Although Ouyang Ke was a little unhappy, he didn't say much, and completed the exchange honestly.However, it happened to be shot just below the chest of Kinu. Kinu didn't die immediately, nor did he cough up blood foam, but he was losing a lot of blood.Acupuncture and bandaging are just a drop in the bucket for him.

The three of them returned to the mansion at night—it was already curfew, and the city gates were not allowed to open. The three of them could only leave their horses outside, and the guards on the city wall hung them on the city wall with big baskets—afterwards There were no more attacks on the road.

And there are always a few doctors in the mansion, and they are the doctors who are proficient in knife wounds. Fortunately, the beggar did not hurt the internal organs in the misfortune, and regained consciousness the next morning.

two days later in the morning

"Senior Hong! Senior Hong!" Wanyan Kang shouted in a forest in the suburbs, alone.

"Boy, what did you come to see me for?" Hong Qigong jumped out from nowhere, since he came to Shaanxi, he occasionally went to see Yan Kang. .

"Senior Hong, there are some things I need to show you." Wan Yankang raised his hand, which was holding a thick stack of paper before.

"Why, could it be a recipe?" To Hong Qigong, there was nothing written in black on white paper that could interest him except recipes, even martial arts secret books.However, after seeing the first page, his expression was no longer relaxed and easy, "Boy Wanyan, what do you mean?"

"Senior Hong, I know that you can't be a square without rules. Since the Beggar Gang is a gang, there should be rules. However, in this Shaanxi land, many refugees who joined the Beggar Gang didn't know what Jianghu is in their previous lives. What is a sect? They join the gang, just because they don’t want to be bullied or starved to death. They don’t know that once they join the gang, especially the Stained Clothes Sect, they will have to beg for food for the rest of their lives. If they want to quit, it will be tantamount to betrayal. It must be three knives and six holes."

That stack of papers is actually government official documents, criminal cases, and pleadings.Most of the people at the top are the men who were the pillars of the family, and only orphans and widows came to complain.There are also unnamed corpses. It is good to be found smelly in the ditch. At least the government will give him a thin coffin, but there may be many others who were alone and were cooked by wild dogs, and no one knows.

"..." Hong Qigong was speechless. According to the rules of the Jianghu people, the beggar gang here is doing the right thing. Joining the gang and coming back means violating the rules. If that's the case, wouldn't there be chaos among those gangs?Lu Youjiao, who is both his good friend and the elder of the gang, has always followed the gang rules. Obviously, at his status, he can wait to eat the offerings from the people below, but even if he goes to beg for food and eat alms every day.

Although Hong Qigong sometimes teased him, he knew that he was a good person and the backbone of the gang.

However, those who died were not good people?

What Wan Yankang said is also correct, although these people seem to have the name of a beggar gang, but in fact, they are just ordinary people.Begging is for survival, joining the beggar gang is also for survival, and when they settle down and find a better way out, they will naturally think of leaving and stop being beggars.This is to live better, but who would have lost his life...

If it is purely based on the theory of being a chivalrous man, the beggar gang is wrong about this matter.

"I will let them screen them out. Those ordinary people will all be expelled from the gang."

"Senior Hong, you haven't finished watching."
