Niuheng Mountain is located in the north of Puzhou.
The mountain of Niuheng Mountain is quite steep, lying on the road from the north of Puzhou to Jiangzhou in the north. However, the bandits in Niu Hengshan have the rules of thieves and thieves, they never go down the mountain to plunder ordinary people at will, they only collect tolls from some merchants.
Even on the mountain, Niu Hengshan planted some grains for self-sufficiency. Just like this, the imperial court did not come to crusade against Niu Hengshan for the time being.
After all, even though Niu Hengshan was occupied by bandits, it never affected the common people.
Today, the imperial court does not have the extra power to manage these matters.
On the mountain of Niu Hengshan.
In the Juyi Hall.
On the headed seat, on a tiger-skin chair, sat a burly and vigorous middle-aged man. This person's name is Xiao Yuanqi, he used to be a general of the Sui Dynasty, after the Sui Dynasty was ruined, Xiao Yuanqi turned into a bandit and entrenched in Niuheng Mountain.
Xiao Yuanqi sat upright, looking at a person below.
Below are several leaders of Niu Hengshan.
It is said to be the leader, but in fact, he used to be a school lieutenant in the army, and all of them were Xiao Yuanqi's former subordinates.
These people are all titans.
Xiao Yuanqi himself is very strong, and he manages his subordinates well. The whole team is very well-behaved. Even though Niu Hengshan only has more than a hundred people, in fact, the fighting power of these more than a hundred people is extremely tyrannical.
In fact, the government was not willing to provoke Xiao Yuanqi either.
On the one hand, Xiao Yuanqi knew the rules and rarely went down the mountain to cause trouble; on the other hand, Xiao Yuanqi was not easy to mess with.
Xiao Yuanqi looked around the crowd, and said: "Brothers, the beginning of spring is approaching now. This year's cold winter is almost over. So this early spring is approaching, and many merchants will pass by our Niuheng Mountain again. During this time, let the brothers keep an eye on Be tighter, any businessmen who go north have to pay a part of the money. In short, we still adhere to a principle, as long as we act according to the rules, everything is easy to talk about. If we don¡¯t follow the rules, we will break the rules and kill people to stop the goods.¡±
"clear!"
All the people answered together.
"Report!"
At this moment, a bandit shouted and ran in from the outside.
It is said to be a bandit, but the bandit's body is fully armored, and he is completely dressed in the army. This is Xiao Yuanqi's arrangement, ordering all the people under his command to do this, and they cannot relax.
Xiao Yuanqi's rule is that when you are leisure, you should play recklessly when you should rest. When it's time to do things, you have to do things conscientiously and down-to-earth, without the slightest overstepping.
This is Xiao Yuanqi's rule.
Niu Hengshan also obeyed Xiao Yuanqi's orders.
Xiao Yuanqi gave everything to them.
After the bandits entered, they knelt down on one knee and reported: "Big leader, there are brothers coming down the mountain to report. Wang Yu from the Wang family in Taiyuan came to visit and said that he had something important to discuss with the big leader."
Xiao Yuanqi narrowed his eyes, and said: "The Taiyuan Wang family is a powerful family, why would they have the heart to visit us people in the corner. Well, let's meet him and invite him up the mountain."
"yes!"
The bandits turned around and retreated.
Xiao Yuanqi waved his hands and said: "Let's go to our respective businesses. It's spring now, and we have to plan for this year. After all, many of our brothers here go to the kiln whenever they have time. If you don't have money, how can you go to the kiln to find money?" woman!"
As soon as this remark came out, everyone burst into laughter.
Rough words are not rough.
On Niuheng Mountain, there are a group of big men. One by one is always on the mountain, certainly not for long. So Xiao Yuanqi often gave the people below a holiday to let them relax, but it was strictly forbidden to break the law at the foot of the mountain. So everyone has to go to a restaurant, or a brothel to find a woman, this is the most common.
One by one chatted and laughed and left, after a while, only Xiao Yuanqi was left in the hall.
Not long after, Wang Yu entered the hall.
When Wang Yu came now, he was fully prepared. Especially since he was born in the Wang family of Taiyuan, he has his own dignity, especially when he looks at Xiao Yuanqi, his eyes are full of condescending scrutiny.
Wang Yudao: "Wang Yu of the Taiyuan royal family, I have met Chief Xiao."
Xiao Yuanqi said: "Sit!"
After Wang Yu sat down, he smiled and said: "Although Wang has admired Niu Hengshan for a long time, it is the first time he has climbed the mountain this time. Now when he climbs the mountain, he sees Niuheng Mountain, three steps, one post, five steps and one whistle , especially Niu Hengshan's brothers who are fierce and brave, they are indeed elite. Niu Hengshan and Xiao Yuanqi are well-deserved."
? Xiao Yuanqi said: "Your Excellency is absurd, mereFake name, not worth mentioning. What's more, I'm just a thief. Such praise is more like irony. "
After a pause, Xiao Yuanqi said: "Why did you come here? If you have something to say, just say it, don't go around in circles."
Wang Yudao: "Okay, I'll just say it straight. I came to Niu Hengshan this time to make a deal with Chief Xiao."
Xiao Yuanqi said: 'What business? "
Wang Yudao: "Murder is a business."
Xiao Yuanqi flicked his big sleeves, leaned forward, with an impatient expression on his face, and said: "Speak directly if you have something to say, and fart if you have something to say. Don't leave a part of what you say, just finish the matter directly."
Wang Yu was unhappy, even a little angry. With his status as the Wang family of Taiyuan, even if he saw the general manager of Puzhou, he would be able to straighten his back, and the other party had to pay him three points of respect.
Xiao Yuanqi didn't show any face.
However, Wang Yu now has something to ask for from others, so Wang Yu suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "Leader Xiao is quick to speak, so I will say it directly. I am here this time to hope that Chief Xiao will intercept and kill the Wang family for me. A batch of people who pass by Niu Hengshan. Of course, the price will not be less, and Chief Xiao will not be treated badly."
"Come on!"
Wang Yu gave an order.
I saw two attendants entering with a big box. This big box is half the height of a person and nearly six feet long. It is a huge box. The entourage walked to the place where Wang Yu was, only to hear a bang, and the box was placed on the ground.
Wang Yu opened the box.
The golden light shines brightly.
Inside the box, there are gold bars neatly placed, as well as many treasures and jade articles, which can be described as jewels. The precious jade and gold in this box alone are worth a lot.
Wang Yu shook his sleeve robe, felt that he had gained face, and raised his head and said, "This money is my Wang family's deposit. If Chief Xiao completes the task, then the Wang family will have more money to thank you."
"As a thank you after completing the task, there is a lot of money. At least, there are two such big boxes, which are filled with precious jade and gold."
"Chief Xiao, this is a windfall."
Wang Yu was very proud, and said: "With this money, Chief Xiao and the people under his command can use it for a long time. For half a year or even a year, Chief Xiao doesn't have to do anything, and can eat and drink without worrying about it."
Xiao Yuanqi glanced at Qian Cai, but did not reveal any greed. He actually doesn't have much desire for money, it's just that he has so many brothers under his command and needs him to take care of him, so he needs money to work.
Xiao Yuanqi said: "Being courteous to others, there must be serious demands. You have given so much money, and the things you want to accomplish are not easy. Let's talk about it first and listen. If it is feasible, I will take over the matter." .If it¡¯s not feasible, then say something else.¡±
Wang Yudao: "The people of Chief Xiao are all elite. I have heard that Chief Xiao once faced more than a thousand people chasing him, and he was not afraid at all, and he retreated completely. You are a hundred people who can count as ten, enough to succeed. .¡±
Xiao Yuanqi said: "Speak humanly!"
Wang Yu's face froze immediately.
The expression on his face revealed a trace of displeasure. Because Xiao Yuanqi didn't have the slightest respect for him, and his words were extremely vulgar, which made Wang Yu very shameless.
Wang Yu took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said, "The task of the Wang family is very simple. Chief Xiao arranged for someone to rob and kill Du Ruhui's family who came from Chang'an. Du Ruhui's identity is the governor of the acting state arranged by the court. I need Chief Xiao to rob and kill the Wang family." All the people, beheaded and killed, leaving no one behind."
Xiao Yuanqi frowned suddenly.
It's not easy.
Xiao Yuanqi knew Du Ruhui, but the reason why he knew Du Ruhui was because of Du Qi.
Many people know what Du Qi did outside Yanmen in the northern border. Du Qi and Changsun Shunde went to Turkic envoys together to defeat Turkic Jieli Khan's conspiracy, and even assisted Dingxiang King Li Dayen to defeat Turkic Lord.
So Xiao Yuanqi knew Du Ruhui's family. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
