Chapter 603

After hearing Lin Xiu's words, the young man patted Lin Xiu on the shoulder, and there was a lot of sigh in his tone.

"Brother, don't worry, you will lose it, and one day you will be able to practice again. It is better for you to live with me during this time. Don't worry, as long as we have a bite to eat, you will definitely not be hungry."

I have to say that villagers in the mountains often have a powerful and simple feeling, which Lin Xiu has never encountered before. When there are so many people in the practice, everyone only cares about your cultivation. As well as the speed of the cultivation base breakthrough, this is the first time he has encountered this kind of sincere concern for a stranger who has never met before.

This moved Lin Xiu slightly, so he nodded his head. Not long after, the delicious fish soup was finally served, and the young woman filled a bowl full for Lin Xiu, and then served Sit down at the table.

At the dinner table, several people discussed some things with each other. Only then did Lin Xiu know that this village is called Xinghua Village, because every household in the village is very good at making wine, and they also use this as a way of survival, but it makes people a little angry There is a group of horse thieves not far from the village.

These people wander around ten miles and eight villages all day long, relying on a group of men who have barely reached the level of bone tempering, to forcibly collect protection fees from these villages.

Although the village is barely able to survive, basically half of the harvest is handed over to horse thieves for nothing. All of this makes everyone in the ten miles and eight towns feel very angry and want to stand up and rebel. The men of the banker only have this kind of strength. Compared with the real practitioners, there is still an indescribable distance.

Hearing this, Lin Xiu couldn't help but frowned. You must know that the distance has been restored to light, but it's only a few short months. I didn't expect those horsemen to resume their old business again. I don't know how Being aggressive, but wanting to get something for nothing, this kind of thing is really unreasonable, and Lin Xiu is also particularly angry.

"Brother and sister-in-law, don't worry, you two. When the horse thieves appear next time, I will naturally have a way to deal with them. You just need to watch quietly from the side." Lin Xiu patted himself on the chest, The words were very confident, but the young couple looked at each other with deep worries in their hearts.

The young man poured a full glass of spirits for Lin Xiu, then shook his head and smiled helplessly.

"This is just our private matter. I don't dare to bother you brother. You make a move. Besides, you are seriously injured now. The top priority is to rest well. We are used to being bullied by horse thieves anyway. This loss is not worth it. What, if you lose your life in vain because of this, then it is our fault."

It can be seen that the couple are sincerely thinking about Lin Xiu, but the little horse thief is only in the state of bone tempering, how could Lin Xiu take it to heart.

He smiled and didn't say anything more. Lin Xiu knew that when the horse thieves appeared next time, as long as he frightened him a little, he believed that those people would run away with their heads in their hands, and they would no longer be able to pose a threat to the surrounding villagers. But he can't now. Telling the young couple in front of them that they are brains that have reached the realm of heaven and earth, they are not considered seriously injured, and it is easy to deal with these horse thieves, which is too shocking.

After drinking the fish soup, the young woman prepared a room for Lin Xiu, then grabbed her son by the ear, and asked him to start reviewing today's lesson under the oil lamp.

There was nothing to say all night, and in the middle of the night, even breathing came from the room.

With Lin Xiu's current cultivation level, even if he doesn't eat or drink, there is no problem. As for sleeping, he doesn't have to worry about it, so he quietly left the room without disturbing anyone, and was going to take a look at those Where is the lair of horse thieves?

It was still a field of ice and snow outside, and the bitter cold wind was blowing. If there were ordinary people outside at this time, they must have wrapped their clothes tightly, but Lin Xiu looked indifferent, shrouded in spiritual consciousness, It immediately covered a range of thousands of miles.

Under the spiritual consciousness, the wind and grass around him could not escape Lin Xiu's perception. He also found a dozen men in a mountain den, eating meat and drinking wine.

Ordinary people, three meals a day are just some rough food, but these people don't look like farmers, but they can live such a life, let Lin Xiu know, I am afraid that this group of people has been blackmailing all over the world. Those horse thieves.

"The second child sees that the food in the mountains is not enough. You should go out for a walk until tomorrow. The people in Xinghua Village are relatively rich, so let's start with them." A bearded man was biting a chicken leg, mouth watering Oil, said vaguely to a scholar dressed as a literati.

The scholar shrugged his shoulders helplessly, obviously he was extremely reluctant to this job, now the outside is covered with ice and snow, it is extremely cold, he doesn't want to go out to enjoy the autumn wind.

The other horse thieves sitting around the bonfire stared closely at the scholar with gloating eyes.

This scholar was not a horse thief at first, but just an extremely down-and-out scholar at the foot of the mountain. When he went up the mountain, he was accidentally captured by these horse thieves, and he had no money at all to redeem himself. He had a few catties of ink, so he took it as his military advisor.

Moreover, the extortion of the ten miles and eight towns these few times was precisely because of the advice of scholars, which made those people gritted their teeth and swallowed them one by one even if they were angry. He paid more and more attention to it.

The scholar knew that he could not disobey the leader's order at all. If he did that, he might end up dead in the snow, so he could only nod his head in desperation.

And to be honest, the scholar is also very satisfied with his current life. When he was at the foot of the mountain in the early years, he lived a life without enough food, not to mention how miserable it was, but since becoming a member of these Marches, not only With wine and meat, once you meet a woman who is alone on the mountain, you can still have fun. This is a life like a fairy.

Lin Xiu withdrew his spiritual knowledge, and knew the situation of these horse thieves very well. A sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he was waiting for tomorrow when these people took the initiative to take the bait. Then there would be ways to deal with them.
