The Rise of the Shen Family

v1 Chapter 106: Bandits are coming

   "I heard that the bandits wandering outside Shanghai Shangfang have entered Linhai County!" A casual Xiu said with lingering fear.

   "Yes, I heard that several small family caravans were robbed on the way here!" A good deed quickly echoed.

   saw the one-year-old San Xiu sighed:

   "The severe winter has passed. After hiding in the mountains for a whole winter, the robbers in the mountains are hungry and can't choose food! It's another **** storm!"

   Obviously this old casual cultivator has experienced banditry and deeply knows the cruelty of these desperadoes!

  ……

   Just as rumors were spreading in the city, the Li family, which has not yet appeared among the four major families in Linhai County, finally came. The caravan of the Li family entered the city violently under the leadership of the patriarch Li Zeteng.

   But soon, anyone with a discerning eye can see that Li Zeteng's face is gloomy, even the Li family's oppressors have a gloomy expression, and a few people still have color on their bodies!

  As Linhai County No. 1 Lord, it can make the Li family leader in the middle of the foundation construction ugly, except for the other three foundation construction families, I am afraid that no one will be there!

   "Do you think the Li family seems to have encountered a major event this time?" Yi Sanxiu began to ask his companion.

   Ran Xiu who was questioned looked at the Li family and said in a deep voice:

   "It looks like I am afraid that I have experienced a big battle! The blood of this body..."

   "Who dares to intercept Li's caravan?"

   "Whoever intercepted Li's caravan has something to do with those of us. Someone will take care of it, so wait for the show!"

  ……

   Li Zeteng, as a foundation-building monk, heard these casual cultivator words without missing a word, and the gloomy color on his face became more intense.

   Everyone in the Li family, regardless of the words of the casual practitioners, passed through the crowd and walked towards their shop.

   "Patriarch!" A fat old man hurriedly ran out to greet him.

   "Bring them all in, and treat the injuries as quickly as possible!" Li Zeteng said with a sullen expression.

"Yes!"

   The shopkeeper of the Li family quickly agreed. He had already known about the attack on the caravan, but seeing the scene in front of him, he still underestimated the loss!

   After throwing the matter to the shopkeeper of Fangshi, Li Zeteng walked towards the tallest building in Fangshi.

   This tallest building is called Linhai Pavilion. Although the boundless sea is not visible on the pavilion, it is also used to the name of Linhai.

   This Linhai Pavilion has been the first building in this city since the establishment of Fangshi. It is divided into several floors. The first floor is a hall. Some trade fairs and auctions are held here.

   Above the second floor are some rented rooms, which are full of aura and well-protected. They are specially rented for casual repairs.

   This attic was built by several houses in the past, and the annual division is also in accordance with the rules of Fangdou.

   Li Zeteng came to the top floor, and after entering a room, he sat there dullly, waiting for others to arrive.

   Not long after, a spiritual light fell outside the room, and only saw a man in Chinese clothes push the door and said with a smile:

   "As soon as Fellow Li Daoist arrived in Fangshi, he called out a few of us. I don't know if there is anything to discuss!"

  As soon as the voice fell, two more figures came into the room.

   One of them was wearing a dark green robe, with warm eyes and a refreshing feeling. Since Shen Huanchi broke through the late stage of foundation construction, he looks a few years younger.

  Beside Shen Huanchi was a thin old man. He was wearing a very ordinary gray cloth robe, his hair was curled up, his long beard was fluttering, his expression was dim, dignified and sad.

   If it weren't for a little bit of foundation-building aura from his body, let alone the three people present, no one would only recognize him as an ordinary old man.

   And this unsurprising old man is indeed the contemporary patriarch of the Du family, Du Wenfu.

   Don't look at his thin body, looks old and frail, but he is a genuine mid-foundation monk.

   Moreover, Du Jiazu had received several incomplete sword moves, but they were compiled into a set of swordsmanship by the Du family.

   It is precisely with this set of swordsmanship that although Du Wenfu is old, no one dares to touch the tiger's might, even the current overlord Chen family dare not make a move.

   "Daoyou Chen, Daoyou Li!" Shen Huanchi greeted them with hands over.

   "Did Daoyou Shen and Daoyou Du come soon too?" Chen Wensong looked at Shen Huanchi and said lightly.

  Although Li Zeteng's face is not good on the side, he still got up in response to the two foreign and two family heads.

   "I saw the news from Daoyou Li, so I hurried over!" Du Wenfu said with a smile, then glanced at Li Zeteng, who was gloomy, and turned to Shen Huanchi.

   saw that Shen Huanchi didn't speak, obviously the atmosphere here was a little embarrassing.

   Chen Wensong glanced at the two Shen Huanchi, then walked straight to the main seat and sat down.

   "Everyone, take your seats!"

   Shen Huanchi and Du Wenfu glanced at each other, and then sat down. Now the Chen family is the first family in Linhai County, and of course they can't help the seat.

   After seeing all three of them seated, Chen Wensong looked at Li Zeteng and said:

   "Now that the four of us are all here, Fellow Daoist Li should talk about what's going on, right?"

   "My Li's caravan was attacked by bandits!" Li Zeteng said with a trace of killing intent on his face.

   After hearing these words, Shen Huanchi and Du Wenfu flashed a little expression on their faces, but Chen Wensong was expressionless.

   "Since there are fellow daoists sitting in town, it is enough to kill these bandits!" Chen Wensong said lightly.

   Du Wenfu also spoke here.

   "My family's caravan was also spotted on the way here, but after the old man appeared, he also retreated~lightnovelpub.net~ I don't know if Li Daoyou is here?"

   Facing Du Wenfu's question, Li Zeteng's face was a little embarrassing, and he said in a slanderous manner:

   "Xia Xia was careless at the time and hit the other party's split plum blossom plan. When Xia Xia woke up, it was already too late!"

   After hearing this, the remaining three people had nothing to say. They all experienced an overnight attack that night, but they did not attack rashly, so the gangsters automatically retreated when they saw it.

   Seeing that the other three people didn’t say a word, as if they were out of the way, Li Zeteng couldn’t help but reminded:

   "This group of bandits have foundation-building monks, and once they enter Linhai County on a large scale to snatch, it will be another disaster!"

   In fact, even if Li Zeteng didn't say it, the three of them knew what it meant.

  The scourge of the bandits has always been the heart disease of the various families in Linhai County. These bandits living in the wilderness will come out to rob practice resources in spring.

   There are Jindan real people stationed in Shanghai Shangfang, as well as law enforcers in the market. They are not allowed to do anything for hundreds of miles around Shanghai Shangfang, let alone the existence of bandits.

   And these bandits have been dormant in the mountains for another winter, urgently in need of training materials, so they will enter Linhai County and rob some small families to make a living.

  In the face of this situation, the various families in Linhai County have also organized encirclement and suppression, but there is no way to deal with these unsettled and wandering bandits. When the army came, they scattered all the birds and beasts.

   And once the Linhai County family relaxes their vigilance, they will **** it instantly like a gust of wind, and then hide in the mountains.

   When spring comes every year, it is the time when the bandits are most active, but they are usually small fights and will only grab some weak training families. This time it is rare to attack the Zhuji family in Linhai County.
