Chapter 50 Another group of thieves - a mountain eagle? ! "Come on, sir, take a look. These are all good things. If the things inside are bad, I, Liu Facai, will die badly! Our ancestors have been like beasts for eighteen generations!"
Looking at the salesman holding the dumpling cart in front of him, Wu He raised his eyebrows slightly, waved his hand to indicate that everyone in the Wu family class was okay, and then glanced at this guy's goods with his big eyes.
This is the first time Wu He has seen this kind of salesman. He heard from his grandfather Wu Sheng that this kind of salesman works with thieves, and they are considered different positions in an ecological chain. The thieves are responsible for robbing, and people like him are responsible for collecting and selling, which is equivalent to dumping. business.
Of course, those high-value goods will naturally not be circulated. For guys like this, those things will usually have corresponding routes in the city. These guys usually only collect some relatively fragmentary things.
In the past, the roads Wu's class took were usually roads with few or even no thieves. At least Wu He had never encountered them in the past few times.
Today is really the first time.
I glanced at the things on the salesman's cart. Most of them were rusty swords, some bottles and cans, some rags and linen clothes, and some clothes with good fabrics but missing arms and legs. They were indeed the same. Wu He heard the same thing, nothing good.
In addition, there were a few strips of bacon as well as hammers, hoes, shovels, needles and thimbles used in daily life, which attracted Wu He's attention.
However, since Wang Mazi's treasure house was cut off, the Wu family has no shortage of these , Wu He just glanced past, and finally looked at the herbs piled up like weeds.
Wu He touched his chin, walked slowly closer, stretched out his hand to pluck the herbs twice, looked up and down carefully, and then made sure that the herbs in his hand were the same as those he had found from Wang Mazi before. They are the same kind, and they are all medicated bath materials stored in Wuhu Hard Qigong.
According to the amount of medicine in the treasure house, and looking at the quality of the herbal medicine, if Wang Mazi obtained these medicines, it would obviously be impossible to throw them away to these salesmen.
That also proved one thing - the thieves behind the salesman in front of him and Wang Mazi were probably the same group of people.
"Someone violates the rules, and there are always troubles..."
These herbs were described in the exercises, and then he asked about the contents of the bottles and jars. After getting the answers of "lime powder", "black powder powder" and "Mongolian sweat medicine", Wu He was Carrying the things I bought, I returned to Wu's class.
Of course, he was not in a hurry to leave. After all, he had already prepared to have dinner where he was. So what was the point of just leaving? Of course, even though he was eating, Wu He's attention did not leave the salesman.
Sure enough, after watching Wu He leave, the salesman temporarily tied the donkey cart to a tree, and then sneaked into the woods.
Wu He followed quietly and saw that he took out a white dove from nowhere, and then seemed to be preparing to fly the dove to deliver a message.
"This is called professionalism, right?"
Looking at the salesman who suddenly turned around and looked at him in horror, Wu He pinched his fingers, making his joints make a "click-click" sound. At the same time, he slowly approached the man and spoke word by word. :
"Brother, let's talk..."
When the salesman saw this, his hands immediately shook, and the white pigeon was about to flap its wings and fly up. Wu He waved his hand, and a pulse flew out, which directly beat the pigeon into a pulp, and the white feathers flew everywhere. Falling, a piece of meat even landed directly on the shopkeeper's eyebrows.
Where has a salesman in his early twenties seen such a scene?He was frightened to the point of peeing in an instant. He didn't care whether his pants were scratched or not. He just stepped back and yelled with a look of horror on his face.
"Don't come here--"
……
Of course, ten seconds later, the bruised and swollen salesman knelt on the ground and told Wu He the details of the group of thieves who were his accomplices.
Those who work in their profession just keep their heads in their belts, and sell their accomplices in a straightforward manner, without caring whether the accomplices will escape and settle the score later.
After making a joke, my head is already in someone else’s hands. What will I do in the future?Survive first.
Of course, it was not that he had never thought of playing some tricks during this period, but after Wu He removed the joints of his limbs, he became more honest. He just lay on the ground and looked up at Wu He before stammering the introduction. The situation on my own side.
"The boss above me, my name is Zuo Shandiao. He has more than a thousand people and hundreds of horses under his command. He has seven heads and manages seven departments. All of them have extraordinary martial arts skills. One against ten good players, of course you are nothing compared to a good guy..."
Listening to the salesman's words, Wu He couldn't help but frown.
"Speak nicely and don't flatter me. This won't work here..."
"Ah, um—"
Seeing Wu He's lack of enthusiasm, the salesman quickly put aside his thoughts and started introducing him seriously.
"That mountain eagle loves money, but is very generous to his brothers. His reputation is well-known around him. Every bandit under his command practices martial arts, and the strongest among them are the leaders."
"Therefore, Zuoshandiao and his group of bandits are not like the other thieves who came out to rob houses when their brains are hot and have some skills. Not only is his power powerful, he also has a clear division of labor, and the gangsters under him are not afraid of death. .”
"My subordinates have their own division of labor: those who gather information, those who make suggestions, those who rob houses, those who sell goods, those who buy grain and grass, those who purchase weapons, and those who manage the government."
"Of course, Master! That's all I know. I don't know the specific situation, who they are, or what the secret codes are. I just heard my father say that there is such a thing."
"And that's not all. Uncle, do you know Qingfeng in Qingfeng Town? It is the base camp of Mountain Eagle, but he calls Qingfeng Weihu Mountain."
"The ambition to turn Qingfeng Town into Weihu Town is clearly revealed."
"But it's a pity that this idea did not succeed. Although the reputation of Weihu Mountain has spread, except for insiders, most people only think that Weihu Mountain only refers to the bandits headed by the mountain eagle..."
"The Weihu Mountain is easy to defend but difficult to attack. There are also various wild beasts living on it. Except for safe roads, it is not uncommon to see a wolf every two steps and a blind bear every three steps."
"And not only that, that mountain eagle is also very cautious. He doesn't trust anyone except his own family. We, the peripheral salesmen, all communicate through flying pigeons."
"The location of the goods is naturally written on the flying pigeon, telling us to pick up the goods where and when, and then put back the profit from the sale at what time and place."
"It is precisely because of this in the past few years that the surrounding officers and soldiers went to suppress the bandits but failed. Moreover, several good officials from the government who once led the team died on the mountain."
"However, after that experience, the mountain eagle also suffered serious losses, and it has been honest for a few years. There has been no news in the past few years, and it only suddenly appeared again some time ago."
"In the past, my father worked for them and got a share of the goods, so when they came back to the world, they roped us in. I was not an adult at that time, so I didn't participate much in these things. But now that I am an adult, my father has forced me to I’m here to do this work together.”
"Seriously, uncle, this matter really has nothing to do with me. I am just a little person who has just started to do things. Even if you kill me, it will be of no use. I have never even been to Weihu Mountain, and all the birds are flying." Doves deliver messages.”
"Now even Fei Ge has been killed. Even if I run directly in front of them, they won't believe me. Just treat me like a fart..."
In response to the cry of the salesman in front of him, Wu He showed no expression on his face and just nodded doubtfully.
If the other party is a novice, Wu He really believes it. After all, judging from the other party's skill and eyesight, this guy doesn't look like an old man.
The aura of just starting out and wanting to make great achievements was almost overflowing, and Wu He could not tolerate course, we don’t rule out the possibility that the guy in front of us is acting. After all, who knows whether the harmless young man encountered on the road will be the Great Love Immortal... Of course, this probability is pitifully small...
But what makes Wu He feel a little strange is why does the name Weihu Mountain sound so familiar to him?And that mountain sculpture...
"Damn it, this can't be something created by some Northeast traveler..."
"Heavenly King Gedihu, Pagoda Town River Demon?"
"Is he the man who wants to be the king of the Northeast?"
Of course, complaining in his heart, Wu He did not miss one point in the words of the salesman in front of him - "The other thieves in front of me came out to rob houses when their brains were hot and they had some skills." This was referring to the king Wu He had met before. Is Mazi a group of people? Wu He couldn't help but think too much. The main reason was, didn't this salesman named Liu Decai just say that there was also a department for inquiring about information in Weihu Mountain?Maybe they knew that he broke up dozens of thieves, and then let the surrounding salesmen know the general information, and this guy leaked it and spread it to Wu He's ears.
It is better to believe that this kind of thing exists than to believe that it does not exist. It is always good to be prepared for any situation that may lead to bad consequences...
The salesman's words completely dispelled Wu He's idea of testing Weihu Mountain.
After all, although Wu He should be able to beat a normal flexible person when using the pulse technique, this is a conclusion drawn from Xie Qian's evaluation of Liang Zhi's zombie.
But there really is at least a strong and flexible person on Weihu Mountain. Who knows what kind of monsters are hidden there? What if there is another "Liang Zhi" hiding there?And there are thousands of people. In the previous life, there were only so many people in one department of Wu He University. Even if the person responsible for the robbery was wrong, there were at least hundreds. Hundreds of people, not to mention volleys and sieges, even if Wu He didn't resist and let Wu He kill him casually, Wu He could be exhausted even to death.
Even if Wu He runs away after beating someone, if the intelligence network of Weihu Mountain is really that outrageous, there are probably many masters of Wu He's level passing by in Weihu Mountain. In addition, Wu He's group destroyed Wang Mazi and others before. Many people have seen that if a group of people came to Wu He's door, it would be hard to predict whether the rest of Wu's class would live or die...
"Hey, do we have to try to get everyone in Wu's class to learn martial arts? Otherwise, in this world, I won't even dare to go out..."
Moreover, what Wu He has in his hands is enough at this stage. He can do anything for chivalry and justice, but he still has to act within his ability. Going too far is not enough, but he can't be greedy for profit.
After confirming with this, everyone in the Wu family class unanimously confirmed that they should take a detour to avoid the robbery section of Weihu Mountain.
"These guys appeared just after we left. It feels a little strange. Could it be related to Liang Zhi? After all, this is the only way to pass between the Hulu Mountains and Anyang Jun..."
Of course, these groundless speculations don't make much sense, after all, the time is not right.
Since Wu He did not intend to confront Weihushan head-on, while Wu He and everyone in the Wu family class were discussing changing the path, they also asked the salesman one last question.
"When you guys are serving Weihu Mountain, what else do you do besides selling some bulk goods? Don't be careful here, I'm talking about you letting go of white pigeons."
After hearing the second half of Wu He's words, the little Jiujiu in the salesman's heart suddenly stopped and said with a bitter look on his face:
"In addition to selling some stolen money for them, our group of peddlers are also responsible for using the money we obtained to buy some livestock and grain."
"Those merchants in the towns dare to collect the stolen gold and silver treasures and make profits, but there are really not many who dare to deliver large amounts of food to the thieves. Otherwise, beheading would be a trivial matter, and the whole family would be sent to the guillotine. some."
"That's why we need these guardrails. Although one person doesn't buy much livestock and food. But as long as the number of people reaches a certain number, it will be enough for consumption on the mountain."
"The amount of goods I am divided into every month is basically the same, and the value is around ten taels. Therefore, whether I sell something or not, I have to hand over at least five taels worth of livestock or grain each time. "
"One hundred kilograms of grain per person at a time is enough. If that doesn't work, you can use livestock as a substitute. As long as the livestock is alive, it doesn't matter the type, even if it's a rat or a wild dog, as long as it weighs enough, it can be counted."
“It’s precisely because the profits are big enough that so many people come.”
Wu He couldn't help but frown after hearing such a narrative.
"Live animals? There is always a sign of practicing sorcery, but it is normal for thieves on the mountain not to eat meat or vegetables. Those who ask for live animals may be afraid that someone will poison their meat..."
Thinking in his heart, Wu He didn't look away from the straight look seemed to say "What else?"
Knowing that they couldn't hide it, if they didn't speak properly, they would probably get a physical beating. Although they probably wouldn't be able to escape death, Ling Chi and the guillotine still chose the latter, hanging their heads directly with empty eyes. He said weakly:
"Goods cannot be sold at any time. Live livestock are generally not cheap and difficult to catch, and humans are also a type of livestock..."
After hearing this, why did Wu He need the salesman to continue explaining.
Although there were some big expressions on his face, Wu He felt a storm in his heart.
I didn't originally think that he had a higher regard for Weihu Mountain than a mountain eagle, but now it seems that he still underestimates the people of the world.
"This Weihu Mountain is not only a little bit evil, you should stay away from it..."
From the few words of this gangster, Wu He actually had a lot of bad associations, such as that mountain eagle was an evil cultivator. He first hid himself and founded Weihu Mountain, and then took advantage of his blood while the officers and soldiers suppressed the bandits. Both sides were turned into blood food, and even the masters of the government, namely the local officials, were not spared.
Then he kept a low profile for several years, came out again, continued to survive, quietly developed, and prepared to become a blockbuster.
Although Wu He felt that his guess had no basis and he could even write a novel about demonic mortals, it was not completely impossible...
Although Wu He is most likely fighting against the air, Wu He cannot afford to guess correctly, so Wu He must avoid any accidents.
After all, the guy on Brother Corpse's side had to die because he "didn't expect it."
Therefore, Wu He put the salesman aside for the time being, and then discussed changing the route with everyone in Wu's class.
This matter is quite important. If Weihu Mountain really comes back to the world and is not taboo about meat and vegetables, spending money to prevent disasters will not work, and even people will have to be captured directly up the mountain, then this road will really not be possible.
I won’t even be able to take this road when I go out to sing in the future.
That means that we will have to explore a new road in the future, passing through new villages, new towns, and new counties.
The network of relationships needs to be reorganized, the reputation needs to be re-promoted, and everything needs to be started again.
In other words, the Wu family class made more money this time, and they could live with the Wu family class for half their lives. Otherwise, this matter would probably be difficult to negotiate, but now...
"We will consider the specific route later. Now we will take a detour to Mingyue Town, and then back to Sangzhong Town..."
Although you have to go around a big inverted V shape on the map, walking dozens of miles more makes people feel unhappy, but if you want to bypass a group of big bandits that even Wu He can't deal with, you can only He pinched his nose and admitted.
