Storm of Kings

Chapter 44: Secret passages

   The demon thieves did not attack this day, and the village was quiet from morning to night.

   The village was busy all day. The villagers ate and drank, and several elders walked the streets to distribute weapons.

   Zhou Lie went to the village chief’s house and stayed for about half an hour, after which the village chief sought out a few leaders in the village.

   There is news that the village head took out the artifact handed down from his ancestors and wanted to show the thieves a good look tonight.

   There is also news that the village head holds a large sum of money, which was also prepared by the ancestors for future generations. Once the ancestral training was left, the next village head of the old village head is eligible to use the money.

   As the sun sets, the villagers begin to prepare for battle, sharpening their swords fast and bright.

   Every household is gearing up, and those little bosses who have the ability to gather popularity can't wait to have wings and fly out of the village.

   In the evening, Tang Qiqi made a circle around the village, and when she returned to the cave, she shook her head towards Zhou Lie.

   "The villagers look down on the thief too much. They will definitely suffer. Are you sure you want to act tonight? And they have to drag me."

Zhou Lie smiled bitterly: "After the villagers got those weapons, they couldn't listen to what other people were saying. I specifically called a few family members to remind them in the afternoon, but they didn't take it to heart. Sometimes they feel that people feel terrible and they hold sharp weapons. It can make people blindly swell, but fortunately, they only need to mess up the situation and have Uncle Guo to solve the problem."

   "Huh, you can't put the treasure all on the lid of the old turtle, what if there is an accident in the middle? Have you considered retreating?"

   "The village is here, my family, Fatty and Tianbao's family, they are all here, even if I want to quit, where can I retreat? So I can only bite the bullet and fight."

   Zhou Lie suddenly stared at Tang Qiqi closely, took a deep breath and said, "There was no way out before, but now you are my way out."

"I?"

   Tang Qiqi pointed to his nose and shouted, "Smelly fellow, you're too exaggerating me?"

   "It's not a promotion, but there is no other way. The humidity is heavy at night, and you can gather the humidity to form a thick fog. Maybe you can save your life at a critical moment."

   Zhou Lie clenched his fists and said solemnly: "This kind of powerlessness is very uncomfortable, and it makes me feel like I am suffocating all the time, so I have to gain strength, break all restrictions, and not let myself live in vain."

"Huh..." Tang Qiqi felt a mighty aura radiating outwards, and was shocked in his heart: "It's weird, this guy clearly has mixed blood and does not have a clear main vein. Why does he suddenly realize it? This kind of aura? It's definitely not easy to be the same, did his experience resonate with a certain bloodline? It is transforming from the hidden vein into the main vein."

The mighty momentum passed away for a while, let Tang Qiqi breathe a sigh of relief, and thought: "I guessed randomly. It should be that this guy is too depressed. Before the battle, let me vent out in a silly way. Speaking of it, my little lady is really bad. I just got a few bundles of ancient books. I have to desperately work hard, and sooner or later I will be sold by this stinky guy and count the money for him. Really annoying, the recent IQ and EQ seem to have been offline! Is this the most difficult Tang Qiqi among the younger generation of the Tang family? Mother Buddha! Bless the child, you still have to recover from the child!"

   Around eight or nine o'clock in the evening, Zu Wanhao and Xu Tianbao came over.

   "Brother Lie, the second elder and the fourth elder have left the village. The village chief's grandsons and the third elder are very calm, and there has been no movement until now."

   Xu Tianbao explained the situation in the village clearly in the first sentence of the meeting.

   "Okay, let's act now."

   Zhou Lie got up and walked ahead. After the four left the cave, ten figures followed closely.

   Time is short, Xu Xiaohuan and Guo Xingyan also joined the team.

   The team consisted of sixteen people. Among them, the ten figures were of mysterious origin. They were sent by the village chief and led by four gray-haired old men. Zhou Lie had never seen them in the village.

   Guo Xingyan glanced sideways, and whispered: "So, is it a gangster who licked blood with a knife head in the early years? Everyone has a layer of evil spirits. It is really rare to climb out of the dead and be able to endure the good."

   This was obviously meant for Zhou Lie. On the surface, Kaiyuan Village, which was peaceful and peaceful, turned out to be the retirement home for these desperate bandits, and the four little ghosts almost couldn't turn their heads.

   led the old man with a kind smile: "Hehe, half of his neck is buried in the loess, and in the end it can give the juniors a heat, which is really unspeakable."

   Just looking at the face of the old man, it really doesn't look like a thief with a knife head licking blood.

   The few middle-aged men in the back are full of hideous faces, bloodthirsty and cold in their eyes, which makes people shudder at the first glance.

   Sixteen people quickly shuttled through the night, and came to the communal granary in the village in short time.

   The village chief, dressed in neat black clothes, had been standing alone in front of the door for a long time. He didn't speak when he saw people coming, but just nodded.

   After a while, the door panel made a "creak creak" sound, and opened it on both sides.

   The village chief took the lead in stepping in, leading everyone around the three grain stacks and came to a slightly rough wall.

The old man did not turn his head~www.NovelMTL.com~ for a moment of silence and said: "Old brother, I have entrusted the four small ones to you. If there is an accident and force majeure, then take them out of Kaiyuan Village. The horses are already Send it to a secret stronghold outside the village, and there will be plenty of opportunities to come back to rebuild the village in the future."

   "Understand, they are also the descendants of my old nine." The white-haired old man smiled slightly, as kind as the grandpa next door.

   The head of the village slapped it on the wall, and there was a sound of lumpiness on the ground, and a deep passage was cracked down. Few people in the village knew that there was a secret road leading directly outside the village.

   The white-haired old man jumped in, and the others quickly followed.

   When Zhou Lie jumped down, he found everyone crowded in a very simple wooden mine cart.

   There was a sudden stop, and the wooden minecart slid forward slowly.

   After a while, the minecart started to accelerate.

   The wind whistling in his ears, and I can feel the darkness with moisture on my face all the time.

   About ten minutes later, fine sparks appeared on both sides of the minecart, and the speed of the car slowed down a little bit, and finally stopped by a stone platform.

The white-haired old man said: "Okay! Children, we are here. This is the branch of the underground river. After another three minutes, you can get into the dense forest outside the village through the secret road. Boy Zhou, listen to the village head Night vision binoculars, this is a rare good thing. It is most suitable for operation at night. So what are you waiting for? Hurry up and take action. Young people should be active and find out those thieves."

   Zhou Lie winked at Xu Tianbao.

   When it comes to finding way and reconnaissance, few people can surpass Xu Tianbao. Now that there are sharp weapons such as night vision telescopes, it is really even more powerful.

   Tonight also equipped the three elders with night vision binoculars, to see if the people on their side can stun them.
