But I saw the valor that shocked the heavens and the violence that shook the earth.

If the normal Wei Kui only had a chance to win against an opponent of Li Duo's level, then Wei Kui, who was angered after seeing blood, had obviously become a being who could equal Li Duo.

Ma Mian and Niu Tou have shared the joys and sorrows together for many years, and have experienced many life and death battles, large and small, and have naturally developed some exquisite cooperation. The two have really demonstrated that one plus one is greater than two. Unfortunately, despite this, Wei Wei

The defeat still suppressed the two of them without any ability to fight back. If this continues, it will only be a matter of time before they lose.

"Go to hell!" Wei Kui used the iron halberd with one hand to deflect the bull's axe, and with the other hand he took Ma Mian's throat. The iron halberd was so sharp and unstoppable that it was about to knock Ma Mian off his horse.

"No!" At the critical moment, Niu Tou abandoned his weapon, jumped from his horse and jumped in front of Ma Mian, blocking the fatal blow for Ma Mian.

The two of them rolled off the horse together, and Wei Kui also stopped.

"Brother...run quickly! Call the leader of the village to avenge me!" A large bloody gash was opened on Niutou's back by a halberd blade. Although it was not life-threatening now, it was obvious that he no longer had the energy to escape. He suddenly

He pushed Ma Mian, hoping to use his own life in exchange for Ma Mian to escape from danger.

However, Ma Mian knelt on the ground motionless, holding the bull's head in his arms, with a wry smile on his face: "Do you think Qing-faced Yama will avenge you? Even if you are the fourth most powerful ghost under him after him, in his eyes

It's the same...if you die, he will promote a new person to fill the vacancy of the ghost..."

In the eyes of Qing-faced Yama, the left and right ghost kings and the four major ghosts are all the same. If they die, they will die, and then find someone to fill their place - in his eyes, the most important thing is money, so the entire Xiaoshan Yama

Only the second master who can make money for him and make suggestions for him can be worthy of his attention. The attitude of the left and right ghost kings and the four ghosts towards Qing-faced Yama is not so much respect as fear - their strength and

There are too many differences between Blue Faced Yama and Blue Faced Yama. If you offend Blue Faced Yama, you may die in the mountains at any time.

Let’s take one thing as an example. The four ghosts, the bull-headed horse-faced black and white impermanent, are not the subordinates of Qing-faced Yama, but local snakes in Xiaoshan. The ghost kings on the left and right are the trusted followers promoted by Qing-faced Yama himself. Logically speaking,

There is a difference between closeness and distance. But even so, once the Right Ghost King secretly took a sum of stolen property and was killed by Qing-faced Yama on the spot. Now the Right Ghost King has changed.

It can be said that the reason why Green Faced Yama became the leader of the village is not because he has any extraordinary charisma, but because he has a force that no one can match; his method of managing the village is not to be kind and have clear rewards and punishments, but simply to

The oppression through violence only made everyone fear him from the bottom of their hearts.

He Nan had already seen the one-sided situation in the small battlefield from a distance. At this time, he drove his horse and slowly walked up to the two ghosts who were kneeling and lying down: "You just said... your village master will not avenge you."

?”

Niu Tou turned his head around with great effort and spit out a mouthful of blood: "Since I have fallen into your hands, you can kill or behead me as you please. I only have one request..."

"Let this sworn brother of yours go?" He Nan looked sideways at the cow's head and snorted two puffs of smoke from his nose - I don't know when he had lit the tobacco.

"You are not qualified to negotiate terms with us now." He Nan fell off the horse. It seemed that he had completely overcome the effects of the medicine and was in great health now. "But I have a way.

Let neither of you brothers die."

Not only were the two brothers with bull heads and horse faces stunned, but even Wei Kui and Yu Ruyi didn't know what He Nan was planning. Yu Ruyi pulled He Nan's sleeves, but the latter patted her hand to indicate that there was nothing wrong with her.

Not long after, the more thoughtful brother of the two spoke up: "Say."

It was already Yinshi, and the three of them had been staying up almost all night. He Nan couldn't help but yawn, and took another puff of tobacco and said: "I'll ask you some questions first, and you must answer them truthfully. The big-headed snake just told us

There are many things. If the answers from your mouth are not consistent... you know the consequences. Don't think about delaying time, the calf's injury cannot be delayed..."

In fact, what the big-headed snake said was not very detailed. He Nan only thought of defrauding the two thieves after seeing that the big-headed snake had died in the melee just now. Anyway, the big-headed snake was dead and there was no proof. Is the confession correct or not?

No, it's not all He Nan's words.

Of course, Ma Mian knew the situation of his two brothers. Talking nonsense now with a sense of luck would be tantamount to death. If he told the truth, he might be able to retain a glimmer of hope, so he agreed to He Nan's conditions.

"How many people are there in your village? How many worthy people are there? How many characters are there who are similar or even higher than you two?" He Nan tried to pry it out from Ma Mian's mouth as soon as he came up.

The most important information in Yanluo Village is the number and combat effectiveness of this group of bandits.

"There are small villages in the southeast, northwest, and are led by our Niu-headed and Horse-faced brothers and Black and White Wuchang respectively. Each has about 300 minions serving under our orders. There is also a large village in the center of Xiaoshan with about 700 people, which is directly under our control.

The leader of the village is Qingmian Yanluo." Ma Mian replied clearly, "We four ghost masters have the same status, and above us there are the left and right ghost kings, the second master and the first master; Hei Wuchang and I are equally powerful, Niutou and

Bai Wuchang is slightly inferior to the two of us. Niutou and I can probably fight to a tie with one of the ghost kings on the left and right. Black and white Wuchang must be about the same. I can't say many are close to the level of the four ghosts like us, but about ten or so will still be the same.

Yes. The second master is our master, he is good at calculations but doesn’t know much about martial arts. As for the first master..."

Speaking of this, Ma Mian seemed to have remembered something, and there was a little hesitation and fear on his face. He swallowed hard, and then said hesitantly: "The four ghosts plus the left and right ghost kings...

…is no match for him.”

Previously, He Nan didn't take Qing Faced Yama seriously at all. Even when he heard that there were nearly two thousand bandits, he didn't have any ups and downs in his heart. After all, no matter how many bandits there are, a group of bandits can't make a difference. But now, looking at it,

Seeing the fear on Ma Mian's face and the strength of Qing-faced Yama in his words, He Nan's heart was indeed shaken, and then he turned to look at Wei Kui, who was holding his arms and saying nothing.

Of course, Wei Kui understood what He Nan meant. He was asking himself, "How does this Blue-faced Yama compare to you?" However, Wei Kui has always been a disobedient and dissatisfied master, and he has never seen Qing-faced Yama's face.

How could he kill his own prestige? So he replied: "I will not lose to him."

From Ma Mian's point of view, Wei Kui was not only confident, but also had a tough mouth. He couldn't help but raise his head and glance at Wei Kui. He had just made a cut in his ribs due to his sneak attack. At least Qing-faced Yama had never done this before.

He was successfully attacked by himself.

Of course, Wei Kui also saw the strange look in Ma Mian's face, which simply said "Why are you bragging?" written on his face, but he didn't need to explain anything to this defeated general. His style has always been to only attack.

If you are not careful, it is inevitable that you will be injured more often than those characters who can advance and retreat.

After He Nan heard Wei Kui's words, although he was still unsure, he couldn't disgrace Wei Kui, so he nodded in affirmation. Next, he kept asking Ma Mian about various situations in Yan Luo Village, and Ma Mian

Although he didn't know why He Nan asked these questions, he still answered truthfully for the sake of his brother's life.

And He Nan also noticed something from Ma Mian's tone and answers - in addition to fear, the attitude of these four ghosts towards Qing Mian Yama also contained a lot of resentment.

These four people used to be the bosses themselves, but suddenly the leader of the village, Yan Luo, and two ghost kings descended from the sky. Later, there was even a second leader riding on their heads. Their status plummeted to the point where they were not as good as before. Not to mention that the village was neutralized.

They have broken many rules, big and small, and even the money cannot be put into their own pockets. Forget it if they are errands. Even if they are bandits, they are so cowardly that no one can accept it. These people are so good.

If you don't make a living, you have to fall into the trap. Isn't the idea just to have a big bowl of wine, eat meat, and get all the gold and silver from the beauties? But now most of the gold and silver seized must be handed over, and the village owner must taste the plundered beauties first.

, it’s strange that they don’t have any resentment in their hearts! But He Nan wanted them to be filled with resentment, and a bold plan had already arisen in his mind.

"Let me ask you... have you ever thought about killing Qing-faced Yama?" He Nan's two eyes were fixed on Ma Mian's face. This was the most critical step. He would never miss anything about Ma Mian.

A subtle expression.

Unexpectedly, Ma Mian was not as scared as before, but showed an expression of relief. Although his smile was ugly, he smiled very easily: "Let me tell you... why do you want to inquire so much? It has nothing to do with you.

Things..."

"Are you from the imperial court?" Ma Mian asked with raised eyebrows. He regarded He Nan and the others as outposts sent by the imperial court to suppress bandits.

"This is not what you should ask, but to show my sincerity, I can tell you that I am not an officer or soldier." He Nan looked calm, "Now it is your turn to answer my question."

The atmosphere suddenly became solemn again. Of course Ma Mian thought about killing Qing-faced Yama, becoming the master of the village himself, or returning to the previous situation of two Xiaoshan, but Qing-faced Yama was the person he could kill if he wanted to.

Huh? He Nan can be said to be fearless for the ignorant, but he is the one who knows the strength of Blue Faced Yama best.

"If you don't speak, I'll take it as your acquiescence." He Nanjian Ma Mian hesitated for a long time but couldn't hold back a fart, so he continued on his own.

"Wait..." Ma Mian and Niu Tou looked at each other, and this look finally made Ma Mian strengthen his mind. He raised his head and looked at He Nan: "Do you have any idea?"

"There is a way, but you still need your cooperation..." He Nan said in a longer tone. He was giving Niu Tou and Ma Mian a last chance to think about it.

In fact, the plan in He Nan's mind is just a prototype. Whether it can succeed or not depends on many uncertain factors besides the cooperation of the bull head and the horse face. However, it all depends on man-made efforts. He Nan believes that there are always more solutions than difficulties.

"What about the benefits?" As expected, what Ma Mian cared about the most was this. If he wanted to kill Qing-faced Yama, he would have to risk losing his head. But if the benefits he got were not enough to balance the "death" result, then following He Nan would do the same.

It's just someone else riding on your head.

"First, you and your brothers don't have to die, at least you can still live before attacking Qing-faced Yama; second, I have no interest in claiming the mountain as king, so if you are still alive after killing him, then this Xiaoshan is still

Your territory..." He Nan said slowly.

"Then what are you doing with all your thankless efforts?" Ma Mian interrupted He Nan. He just wanted to know what He Nan was planning.

"Don't worry..." He Nan glared at Ma Mian, as if he was extremely dissatisfied with Ma Mian's behavior of interrupting him, "What I want is connections."

"You mean you want to be friends with us?"

He Nan did not give any answer to this question, just smiled and said nothing.
