55, oxtail poly
After swallowing the lice, the chief of Tun breathed out again and sighed:
"It's a pity that I couldn't catch the owner of that good horse!"
In his opinion, if such a divine horse mount is at least a well-known figure in our coalition, if he can find him, he will have a place to return to Liangzhou. At the very least, he will find a corpse and cut off his head to surrender to the Han army. He can be a submissive person who can return to the Han emperor. It is much better to burrow the forest in this mountain than the Han army that is hiding everywhere to pursue!”
Speaking of this, the chief of the village pulled out his ring knife and slashed at the ground a few times. After venting the anger in his heart, he put away the knife and stood up with unfulfilled feelings. After he stood up, he estimated the time and stretched out his legs to kick the broken soldiers lying on the ground in groups of three or three, urging them to go back.
So amid his shouts, more than 20 people stood up one after another and walked back along the same path.
After watching them walk away and their figures disappear into the woods, Yan Xing is still worried. He listens tiltly until he is sure that the other person has gone away, he slowly let go of the girl in his arms.
After the girl regained her freedom, she jumped up like a frightened rabbit. She ignored the basket and the short stick and directly distanced herself from Yan Xing, looking at Yan Xing alertly, afraid that he would pounce on him again. Looking at the girl's cold face, Yan Xing was secretly frightened. When she was just held in her arms, she looked completely different, although, although, she forced her to hug her.
"My lady, I was so offended in a hurry just now. I had to do it. Those people were all extremely vicious people. If they had just discovered it, I was afraid that you and I would have been in a different place."
Yan Xing was shameless and pretended not to know what he had done just now, and continued to pull up the tiger skin of the defeated army to scare the girl. Unfortunately, the girl was no longer easily fooled this time. The blush on her pretty face had not yet dissipated. Thinking of the frivolous behavior the other party had just made to him, now she shamelessly took a speech in a hurry, and she didn't make a fuss. The girl opened her almond eyes, stared at Yan Xing, and said with gritted teeth:
"Then now that everyone has left, can I leave too?"
"Yes, I always say you can leave, but you still have to take me!"
Yan Xing spread his hands, looking helpless. When the girl heard his rogue look, she was so angry that she stamped her feet and said with a sharp look:
"You are not afraid of going to the settlements in the mountains, so I will sell you or kill you."
When talking about the word "kill", the girl obviously felt a cold light flashing in the eyes of the man opposite. She was shocked and then remembered that the other party had something to ask for her now, so she glared back at the same time. Because Yan Xing was taller than her, she had to straighten her chest when she made a move of raising her head and glaring.
Yan Xing looked at the girl's chest and said nothing. Of course, he knew that now is not the time to compete with the girl. Although this girl looked unique when she was angry. He cleared his throat and said in a deep voice:
"Are the hunters that those people caught just now in your settlement?"
When she heard Yan Xing talk about this, the girl's face turned dark. The hunters that the defeated army had just captured were indeed people in her settlement. Therefore, she struggled a few times when she first saw it, but then Yan Xing was treated as a strange move and pressed her down, and did that kind of thing to herself.
Thinking of the other party's rude frivolity, the girl gave Yan Xing another fierce look. If his eyes could kill people, it would be enough for Yan Xing to die several times from just now. She turned her face away, hummed, and said:
"Yes, but so what, it's not your business!"
Yan Xing looked at the girl's angry look and suddenly became in a daze. For some reason, he suddenly thought of his little sister. When this girl was angry and angry, her expression was a bit similar to her little sister.
I have been away from my younger sister for so long, I am afraid that she is now angry that she is not trustworthy and has not gone back to accompany her to ride the little red horse.
Thinking of his long time away from home and his relatives at home were waiting for it, Yan Xing's face was dull, but when he thought about the present, his face changed and he said firmly:
"I can help you resist this group of defeated troops. The people who rely on your settlement alone are not opponents of these people. You also need my help!"
Hearing Yan Xing say this, the girl turned her head again, stared at Shui Ling's eyes, and looked straight at Yan Xing, as if she wanted to see through his true plans.
···
Half an hour later, Yan Xing stood in the open space in the center of the Juzhong, called "Oxtail Gathering", and looked around at the houses of the residents of Juzhong and the forts built for protection built on the periphery.
After bringing Yan Xing here, the girl who was reluctant to lead the way only told him, "If you want to survive, don't move around", and then left him alone. Yan Xing stayed alone in the open space in the center of the settlement, looking at the old man, women and children who were away from him, which was quite boring and could only look around.
Although it is said that "small than the village is called gathering", after Yan Xing's on-site visual inspection, there are less than 60 residents in front of him. If calculated according to the algorithm "one hundred households are one li, and the inner pride is the master of the inner pride", the nominal population of this gathering is not as good as that of the Han Empire. But now there are wars and smoke, and the people in Guizhou are suffering from natural disasters and man-made disasters such as wars, plagues, locust plagues, floods and other natural disasters. The ordinary villages are also empty, not to mention the wild gathering formed by fleeing families gathered and fled to the mountains.
Just like Shu Xiang in the Spring and Autumn Period, when the Han Empire came to the present, "the common people were abandoned, and the palace was extravagant; Taoists looked at each other, and women were rich; the people heard the orders of the public, and they were like fleeing enemies." In addition to paying land taxes and lying money, the civil servants in Guizhou were exploited by the lower-class officials and wealthy people from time to time, and various tyrants and miscellaneous taxes emerged one after another. In addition, the heavy labor service that would destroy the households and households, ordinary families could not be able to be honest and obedient to the people.
As a result, some of the Qianshou people who were forced to a dead end by various taxes and labor service sold their wives and children, survived, while others lived in powerful families and became slaves. However, the Qianshou people who were unwilling to sit and wait for death often left their hometowns and fled into the mountains and forests to avoid exploitation by the government. What's more, some gathered in the mountains and forests and became thieves and robbers who harmed one side.
The gathering of oxtails in front of you should be the mountain settlement formed by the spontaneous gathering of Guizhou heads who fled to the mountains and forests. Moreover, it seems that these Guizhou heads who fled to the mountains and forests still have a decent life here.
What Yan Xing saw after entering Juzhong was that there was a fort on the periphery, although it was only more than six feet high, but it was built neatly and orderly. There were also green and strong men watching at the gates of the settlement. When inside, the residential buildings were arranged in an orderly manner, arranged in the format of the inner wall. You could also see mulberry trees and elm trees planted in the open space around you, and those walking old people and playing children were also dressed in coarse cloth and slim clothes, but their faces were not as pale and thin as they were unkempt and dirty.
