Reborn Night Rise

Chapter 192

Since His Highness Carter announced the closure of the city, the surrounding villages have become uninhabited. Although the construction, fields, and some ponds are still intact, there is no population, which looks very weird.

But recently there was a gossip that Bianfan Liucheng was about to open to the outside world again, and claimed that the route problem had been solved. This news caused a great sensation. Those with too much experience ran to Sidesail with their goods, wanting to earn the first wave of business opportunities!
If it is a businessman with some experience, it will certainly not be the case. For example, in a tavern in Fenghua City, several experienced merchants are discussing related matters together at this time.

"Is it true or not that Saifan announced the opening of the route?" A thin middle-aged man with a goatee asked with his eyes narrowed.

"Who knows?" The accomplice next to him said: "It's blocked over there, but a friend of mine brought information from the West Sea saying that the Shenyang Empire is still in a state of preparation for war, which means that the battle should not be over yet, and the Shenyang Empire hasn't spoken yet. This time, it's hard for me to trust that Highness!"

"But that Highness has never let you down!"

"That's what I said." The businessman recalled it for a while, and then nodded: "It's true that it has never disappointed people, but we'd better play it safe!"

"Stay safe?" The middle-aged man with a goatee frowned: "The first wave of business opportunities is the first to seize, and the most lucrative ones must also be the first wave. You are safe, we eat soup when others eat meat?"

"What's the matter with the soup?" The other one didn't take it seriously: "You have to see if you can eat meat. Let's not talk about the complicated situation over there. There are many risks on the road just in the past. Have you forgotten? From here It takes two days to get to the nearest city of Bianfan, and because of Bianfan's closure of the city, the surrounding towns and villages are deserted, do you think?" He stared at the goatee companion with a faint look: "What are the things that live in it now?"

"Um..." The middle-aged man with the goatee was taken aback for a moment, and then suddenly thought of something, his face turned pale, yes, a large number of businessmen are running there now, smarter thieves must have ambushed in those places early and prepared to make a killing , It’s not a large caravan, now it might be swallowed up in the past!
Seeing his friend's expression, he knew that the other party had come to his senses, so he smiled and said: "With Bianfan's level of prosperity, as long as the back is stable, even a little soup is enough for us to earn, not to mention that Fenghua City is not bad here. , the policy of the new lord is very good now, at least the commercial tax has been greatly reduced, which is much better than other cities, just wait slowly, don't worry my friend!"

"En!" The goatee businessman seemed to be convinced at last, and took a sip of his wine sullenly!
-
What the two businessmen said is the current situation of Bianfan. The towns around the six cities have become deserted because of the closure of the city, but in fact there are no people. Those thieves waiting for the opportunity are just like the tavern businessman Said, ambush around these small towns.

These thieves are very experienced, of course they will not live directly in the town, it will easily scare away a lot of people, they usually camp in the forest or on the mountain, and then send people to follow them every day, when there are more people gathered Go collect a wave!
At this time, this small town called Chenguang is located on the outskirts of Bianyang City, about a day away from the main city. If you ride a fast horse, you can get there in about half a day. Many businessmen gather here to rest, but after entering, many people regret it. .

The main reason is that some scenes are too embarrassing when you come in!
As soon as you enter here, there seems to be a dead silence, desolation, and eerieness filling the whole town!

If you observe carefully, you will find that the doors of these houses, especially some large buildings, such as the door of the church, are quite damaged. There are traces of arrows, fire, and bullets on them, but the traces are not very old. It should be the past ten days. thing!
After entering the street, pools of dark red blood can be seen everywhere, on the side of the street, by the door, on the corner of the wall, everywhere.

There are also some blood-stained shreds of cloth scattered, the blood on them is so glaring, it seems that the owner of the clothes has encountered some tragic and unspeakable things.

There are also traces of destroyed portals, and some houses were burned...

After seeing this scene, all the merchants turned pale with fright, but the distance between this location and the previous location is very sensitive. Many people set off from the previous location early in the morning and arrive here at night. It is more dangerous to forcefully rush or go back at night, so everyone can only hold together and gather strength while also having more courage.

Everyone gathered in the church in the small town again. After all, this building is the largest and most suitable for defense. More importantly, there is a statue inside, which will give people a little peace of mind.

There is a group of people in the crowd who are very different. They are dressed luxuriously, and the surrounding warriors are all wearing formal equipment. They are obviously not in the same group as the surrounding people. In the middle of the warriors is a brown-haired boy. If you look more clearly I knew this was His Royal Highness Andy, the sixth prince of the empire!
Among those merchants, an old man who seemed to be quite prestigious came over suddenly, bowed cautiously and asked, "My lord, may I ask. Are you noble?"

The people around also turned their gazes over. Although everyone vaguely guessed that the identity of the other party is not simple, if he admits that he is a nobleman, it will give people more peace of mind. Once confirmed, even if those thieves come, they should not dare to Killing nobles indiscriminately, in the empire, killing civilians or even public officials is illegal, but killing nobles is provoking the empire. Except for those barbarians in the southwest who don't understand the rules, most thieves still dare not kill nobles !
Andy frowned, nodded slightly, and the people around cheered secretly when they heard the words. With the nobles present, although they might still be squeezed, the chances of their lives being saved are very high!

While talking, someone suddenly ran in, it was a young man chosen by the big guy to watch, he ran in panting: "Someone is here!"

Everyone was shocked when they heard the words, and they all showed nervous expressions. Only Andy seemed calmer. He stepped forward and asked, "Is it a bandit?"

"It seems... not!" The man took a few breaths, and then he said excitedly: "I see that they brought cattle and horses, goods, furniture, and seeds, and they seemed to be ordinary people who seemed to be side sails. They should come to resettle and restore Village!"

"Oh?" Everyone relaxed when they heard the words, and even Andy's frowning brows relaxed, and then he ordered: "You continue to guard this room, and you should be more careful. It is not ruled out that it is a thief in disguise. You must Strengthen your defenses, I'll go out and have a look!"

"Your Highness." The warrior on the side hurriedly said, "It's too risky, let's go."

Your Highness?A few businessmen who reacted faster shrank their pupils and lowered their heads, wondering what they were thinking.

"It's okay!" Andy waved his hand: "You just come with me!"

After a few people went out, they saw the side sail people mentioned by the person just now from a long distance away. Andy looked at it and found that it was indeed as the follower said. These people were wearing ordinary civilian clothes and were pulling a lot of goods. , Many of them are living materials, and they don't look like thieves in disguise.

The leader was an old man, and Andy recognized him in his clothes, which were the clothes of a scholar!

"Good night, elder!" Andy stepped forward and performed a noble etiquette to the leading old man. The other party is a scholar. Although scholars are not necessarily nobles in terms of status, they are all of high status and respected. Saluting is not a shameful thing, and most scholars are also proficient in etiquette. Andy is also testing it out. If the other party is really a scholar, he should return the salute.

Sure enough, when the other party saw this, he bent down and saluted with a smile: "Good night, my lord!"

Andy and the samurai behind were stunned. They had never seen such etiquette before, but he couldn't fault it, because the other party was impeccable in both posture and demeanor. He even felt that he, who had been influenced by royal etiquette for more than ten years, , seems to be inferior to the bearing of the person in front of him.

What's happening here?This etiquette is so beautiful!This is what Andy is thinking now.

And he noticed that even though he revealed his noble status, the old man and the people behind the old man all looked calm, and they didn't immediately show humility like ordinary people, and Andy also vaguely felt that those people There is still such a trace of superiority in people's eyes!

What is this scenario?
Shaking his head, Andy still asked the business: "Elder, are you Bian Fan's people?"

"Yes!" The old man said with a smile: "We are the people of Bian Fan and the people of Dark Night!"

"Dark night?" Andy was stunned for a moment, unable to understand, secretly said: "Maybe it's some religion." Then he asked the key point: "Then when you come back to resettle the village this time, will there be any regular soldiers to follow and protect?" As far as he knows, Most of the developed cities will send troops for the first stage of protection when opening up new places or restoring villages to open up wasteland, and then some knights will stay here after the construction of villages and towns is completed.

"Soldiers?" The old man smiled and glanced at Andy, then shook his head and said, "Sidefan soldiers are in short supply now, and besides HNA's affairs, they have to be assigned to station at various waypoints, there are no extra soldiers to take care of our trivial matters! "

"Small things?" Andy said impatiently, "Then who is responsible for your safety?"

"What safety issues will there be in developing a Zhuangzi?" The old man looked indifferent.

Andy was a little speechless. Could it be that Bian Fan had never had any banditry before?This scholar's bearing is good in all aspects, he doesn't look like someone who has no brains and common sense!

"The bandits are coming!" Just when Andy was about to say something more, the whistler's roar suddenly came from a distance!
The people in the church screamed in horror and became more and more chaotic, but Andy was a little surprised to find that the group of ordinary people in front of him had calm faces and no reaction at all.

Seeing this, Andy took a step back, and secretly guarded: "Could it be that they are really accomplices? It doesn't make sense!"

Then he found that after putting down the goods, these people all walked back slowly and formed a scattered formation. Andy frowned. It seemed that they were not accomplices, but what happened to their expressions?a look of indifference
"Hoho!" Outside the small town, a large piece of fire suddenly appeared in the distance, and Andy heard the sound of horseshoes, which made Andy frown slightly. Bringing a bow and arrow is a little troublesome!

"Oh!" The horse thieves and the step thieves following behind all cheered and screamed, roaring excitedly in their throats, dancing with hands and feet, and looking at the villagers here with hideous expressions, full of desire.

The information said that not only many businessmen gathered here, but also civilians who came to settle down. The most important thing is that these civilians did not have military escorts.
But some horse thief leaders felt that something was wrong. He felt that the other side was too calm. In the past, when businessmen or civilians met his group, they would not be scared to death. Even if they calmed down, they would find a corner , trembling defense.

It's not like them, just standing around casually like this, looking at their group with a blank face, and that look seems to be full of disdain!

what's the situation?The horse thief leader frowned, and said inwardly: "Let's make a show of power first!" Then he took off his strong attack, shot the arrow in a perfect arc, and shot at a commoner woman on the left.

It is important to choose a woman as a target. Generally, women are not as fast as young men, and the chance of missing is very small. Moreover, women are relatively weak. With his strong bow, he can basically guarantee death with one arrow, which is more deterrent. Killing a woman will also make people feel that their group is more cruel, and thus create fear in their hearts!
Seeing this, all the bandits roared with all their strength, and let out bursts of grinning and mocking.

"Be careful!" Andy exclaimed hurriedly from behind,

But the next moment, Andy and the gangsters on the opposite side were stunned. The young woman stretched out her hand expressionlessly, and caught it empty-handed!
The bandits who were cheering and howling suddenly fell silent. It was unbelievable. The leader of the horse bandit was also only twenty meters away from him. Such a short distance, to receive an arrow empty-handed?He asked himself that he had never encountered any of these many years in the mainland, even those famous warriors, probably few of them could do it, let alone a commoner woman!
Moreover, what I shot was a 200-jin strong bow!It's no ordinary Qingjian. The leader of the horse thief narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the surrounding civilians, and finally smelled something strange!
Andy was also dumbfounded. Among the knights in the kingdom, he had never seen anyone who could do it. And most importantly, the civilians around him were almost expressionless. It was no wonder that the woman could catch the arrow empty-handed. Things should be normal!
"My lord, you sound like you are from the imperial capital?" The old scholar next to Andy suddenly asked.

"En!" Andy nodded in a daze.

"Then welcome to the Sixth City of Bianfan, you are very lucky, because you will see the greatest city in the world next, and" he paused, proudly said: "the greatest nation!"

"Greatest nation?" Did they mean themselves?Andy was stunned, feeling that the other party spoke so arrogantly and bluntly, that he was not humble at all.But the expression and demeanor of the other party made him unable to say a word of rebuttal, and he couldn't even think of rebuttal in his heart.

Immediately afterwards, Andy saw that the civilians all took a step forward to the bandits at this time. The inexplicable bandits, whether they were people or horses, seemed to be shocked, and they all stepped back several steps. This scene left Andy dumbfounded!
A purple light flashed in the eyes of all the civilians, and some excited expressions finally appeared on their faces, looking at these bandits as if they saw their prey!
Genetic lineage, as long as it is injected, will have some personality effects on the original owner.

Chaotic bloodlines can make people violent, empty bloodlines can make people full of predatoryness, natural bloodlines can make people inexplicably peaceful and have a clear distinction between love and hate, and the same goes for Dark Night. Although Dark Night belongs to a more positive race, they have never been a peaceful personality. Dark Ye believed in the Lord of the Silver Moon, the God of the Moon and the God of Hunting. Even among the Ten Clans, Dark Ye was a heroic and warlike race, full of wildness from the bottom of his heart.

Those bandits were stared at by this group of people, and suddenly there was a biting chill in everyone's heart. They finally felt that their group seemed to have provoked something they shouldn't!
