Chapter 879: Honest Confrontation, the Sorrow of the Mountain People
"If I say below that we have no malicious intentions, are you willing to let us go?"
Yi Xiaotian took a step forward and showed his identity as the leader here.
The man sitting on the seat of animal bones narrowed his eyes, looked at Yi Xiaotian, and whispered a few words to the bald man next to him.
The bald man seemed to be describing to the other party the process of the encounter between the two parties today. After finally listening, the man seemed to think for a moment, and finally said slowly:
"Prove it to me."
"Before that, how about we introduce ourselves?"
After hearing what Yi Xiaotian said, the man spread his hands, but did not press harder to force Yi Xiaotian to give an answer immediately.
"My name is Lu Qinghou, and my identity is that I am just a businessman who travels all over the country and has no fixed address. This is my sister next to me, named Lu Lingqi, and the other one is named Zhao Xiongyuan, who is my follower——"
When he mentioned Zhao Yun, the other party's eyes could not help but turn to Zhao Yun. It is conceivable that after just a brief glance at Zhao Yun, the eyes of the people in the room became extremely dangerous.
Zhao Yun naturally remained unmoved. He did not have any fear. The other party stared at him closely, so he looked back relaxedly.
Yi Xiaotian smiled softly, seemingly not stopping the friction between their eyes.
"This person here is Sun Feng'er, a member of my family, and those maidservants are naturally her followers."
"Hmph...what a family member."
The other party seemed to be quite disdainful of Yi Xiaotian's statement, but it was natural. Judging from the other party's performance, they had actually discovered the sneaky Sun Feng'er and others a long time ago.
Naturally, he would not believe what Yi Xiaotian said, saying that he became a family member yesterday.
But on another level, the other party did not refute, which means that these things are actually harmless.
"As for the purpose of our coming here, to be honest with you, we have always planned to wipe out everyone present."
Rub rub rub rub -
At this moment, Yi Xiaotian's words were like igniting explosives, and the atmosphere in the whole room suddenly became tense.
His words couldn't be more obvious. Such malice, whether it was provocation or not, seemed to offend the other party's bottom line.
Everyone drew their swords at the same time, and on Yi Xiaotian's side, Lu Lingqi, Ying'er and others also showed off their weapons.
But as if they had made an appointment, Yi Xiaotian and the man sitting on the bone seat across from him simultaneously reached out to stop their followers:
"Noisy!"
"stop!"
Just as they showed, everyone was at a loss except Yi Xiaotian and the man who looked at him.
"Keep talking."
After getting the other party's permission, Yi Xiaotian spread his hands and indicated that he really had no ill intentions, it was just because he hadn't finished speaking.
"So this is the purpose we came to Linli Mountain before, or to be more precise, this is the purpose that has never changed before we met you."
"But it's different now... Now, after seeing you save your family members from the tiger's mouth, at least in my opinion, you are definitely not the evil people as rumored by the outside world."
There is a lot of evidence that can confirm this... For example, when Sun Feng'er cried, the group of Shanyue people who surrounded them became confused, and it seemed that they had no intention of intimidating everyone.
There is also the scene that Yi Xiaotian saw when he first arrived. If it were really the people of Shanyue who committed murder, swindling, and doing all kinds of evil, how could they be so poor?
These are all unreasonable.
The only explanation is that this group of people may have been charged with unwarranted charges for some unpalatable reasons.
I don’t know who pushed it, but this crime seems to have penetrated into the hearts of every Jiangdong people.
Once a misunderstanding becomes a fixed impression, it will be difficult to change it.
Just like Zhang Liao defeated the Dongwu people twice in a row, the younger generation of Dongwu generals still did not dare to fight against Zhang Liao even when he was old.
Of course, Yi Xiaotian didn't want to take this opportunity to vindicate the Shanyue people, but the nature of praising the other party and naming the other party was to prevent the other party from pretending to be real and making irreparable mistakes against them when they became angry.
At this point, using offense as defense and advancement as retreat is actually the art of language.
"Hmph, you are indeed glib, so how can you prove that you have no ill intentions towards us?"
"We just saved your lives? Don't be kidding..."
"This is no joke - judging from your poverty situation, if you are a very evil person, you should have attacked the surrounding villages long ago? Why would you let the children in the village suffer too?"
"The only answer is that your nature and morality do not allow you to do such a harmful thing."
There are many Shanyue people in the house. It seems that apart from the man sitting in the middle, there is only a bald man in charge of the whole village. With a total of two leaders, they have to lead many thin and incompetent women and children to survive in the mountains.
, this is definitely not a simple job.
They are natives of Soochow and Eastern Han. They don't have as many thoughts as Yi Xiaotian, and they don't know how to find new ways. Let's not mention their personalities, but their ideas are bound by tradition.
Even so...in Yi Xiaotian's eyes, the children who passed by their feet before still had bright smiles.
Although the village is dilapidated, it still does not look slovenly. On the contrary, it is neat and clean, with a sense of simplicity of the people in the mountains.
Perhaps it was because they hadn't heard outsiders comment on them for many years. They had always been hostile to outsiders and had never had expectations. When they heard Yi Xiaotian's words, their mood gradually became depressed for some reason... Yes
, have not been understood by others for many years, but they still insist on the purity of their hearts, and are even labeled as "evil" by uninformed people. It sounds easy to say, but isn't this a kind of suffering?
In fact, by this point, the bald man was already a little shaken.
However, as his deputy, he still did not admit this because their leader did not fully recognize the other party.
"And we were naturally forced to accept this recruitment order... Feng'er received the recruitment order from the government and the military camp. If she fails to successfully conquer Shanyue, what awaits her will only be severe punishment from above."
"Being forced to do so, she forced herself... and came to the mountains with only her maidservant, in an attempt to complete this impossible task on her own strength."
"If you don't believe it, please think about it carefully... If we are really from the government, why would we come to the mountains to fight against you with just these people?"
"You have lived near Yi County for so long, so you should know how the government works, right?"
"If the government is really involved in this matter... do you think you can still walk out of this ravine alive?"
There was something in Yi Xiaotian's words. The leading man frowned tightly, and his voice became extremely low and terrifying, as if...as if there was a real beast awakening here:
