The words of the old ancestor always contained wisdom.
What was the root cause of most bad people's crimes?
One word-poor!
And now, in the land of Huaiyou, it was really so poor that most people could not survive.
The common people were like this, and so were the wealthy families.
And the Mongolians still treated the Han people like pigs and dogs, sucking their marrow and forcing them to death.
As a result, rebels and bandits swarmed across the land.
Once a person broke the boundaries of morality, they would become extremely terrifying!
Whether it was the Mongolians or the Han people!
…………
Zhu Wu was swinging his saber over and over again. His movements were simple and concise. There were no more than a few movements: a front slash, an oblique slash, a side slash, a swing slash, a reverse slash, and a block.
These movements had become part of his muscle memory, and he could do it with his eyes closed.
He felt that the energy brought by the warm current was almost exhausted. The growth of his strength was almost stagnant, and his body's development was also slowing down.
At the age of 16, he was 1.76 meters tall, with a back like an ape and a waist like a bee. When he moved, his muscles were like flowing water, and he was not a dead lump of meat.
To Zhu Wu, what he urgently needed now was actual combat. At the same time, he needed to figure out how to recruit soldiers from the system.
Suddenly, Zhu Yi, who was feeding him moves, took a few steps back and looked up at the northern sky.
There was black smoke rising from there. The color was not dark, and there were more than one column of smoke rising. It looked very eye-catching against the clear blue sky.
What was going on?
After all, Zhu Wu was someone who had lived in a peaceful era.
Other than hunger, the days after he came here were actually very peaceful.
This sudden change made him somewhat confused.
"Thieves are coming. It looks like the Wei Family Village in the north is suffering.”Zhu Yi grabbed Zhu Wu's arm." Master, quickly hide. The Wei Village is finished. The thieves might take advantage of the situation and charge towards us."”
Clang! Clang!
The gong in the village sounded, and the entire village was instantly filled with cries and exclamations.
Zhu Wu was a little afraid.
Suddenly, they heard Brother Xu Da's voice from outside." Villagers, don't panic. There aren't many thieves. Everyone, take your weapons and destroy them. Don't let these thieves destroy our hometown!”
Then came Zhou Dexing's voice." What's there to be afraid of? The thief only has two arms and one head. He'll die even if his neck is chopped off." It was too late to run now. Instead of being killed like pigs and sheep, it was better to resist and kill them!”
Following Xu Da and Zhou Dexing's words, a few young and strong men from several families rushed out of their homes with carrying poles, sticks, hatchets, axes, and so on." Brother Xu Da, Brother Dexing, we'll go with you."”
"Good, good man!" Zhou Dexing patted one of them on the shoulder, his other hand holding a polished steel knife.
Xu Da was carrying a huge spear.
It was said that the Xu family's spear technique was passed down from the famous general of the Great Song Dynasty, Han Shizhong.
At the end of the Song Dynasty, Han Shizhong defeated the Golden Wu Technique in Huang Tiandang. With a single spear, he defeated sixteen of the enemy's generals!
At that time, the Xu family's ancestor had witnessed it as a personal guard.
When the group of people passed by the Zhu family's residence.
Creak!
The courtyard door opened, and Zhu Wu and Zhu Yi walked out one after another." Big Brother Xu Da, I'll go kill the enemy with you.”
When Xu Da saw Zhu Wu, he was stunned and wanted to say something.
"Big brother, please don't say things like you're young. Haven't you heard of the saying that heroes come from young people?" Zhu Wu said.”
Xu Da and Zhou Dexing looked at each other and laughed out loud." Good lad, you're as elegant as Big Brother Chongba. Come with us then." Remember to follow me when we fight later.”
Zhu Wu waved the saber in his hand in joy.
This time, it was a real saber. Zhu Zhongba had given it to him before he went up the mountain.
Although it wasn't a good saber, it had been sharpened by Zhu Wu.
When they arrived at the north of the village, the team had grown to eleven people, all of whom were young and strong.
Further north, a cloud of smoke and dust rolled over.
Xu Da said with a dark face,"The thief is here indeed."”
Zhu Wu, who was at the side, looked for a long time. He could only see smoke and dust, but he could not see anyone. He could not help but ask curiously,"Big Brother Xu Da, how did you know that there weren't many thieves?”
" That's right." Xu Da smiled and explained," We have to judge from the dust that the thief brought up. Look at the range of the dust…"
These two could still calmly ask and answer when the thief was about to arrive, especially Xu Da. His tone was calm and relaxed, instantly reducing everyone's nervousness.
Zhou Dexing looked at Zhu Wu in surprise."This brother of Chongba used to be a little dull and meek. I didn't expect that he would train his body and practice his sword for the past year. He didn't panic even when he encountered thieves.”
"…So I judged that the number of these thieves wouldn't exceed twenty-five.”
After Xu Da finished speaking, the dust cloud also approached.
Everyone raised their eyes and looked over. There were about twenty figures running in the smoke and dust. Many gazes of admiration looked at Xu Da. At the same time, everyone's hearts calmed down a lot.
"Brother Xu Da, you are this!" Zhu Wu gave Xu Da a thumbs up.
Xu Da smiled." Little Jiu, follow me closely later. I'll protect you."”
"Big Brother Xu Da doesn't need to worry about me, I have Zhu Yi to protect me. Moreover, I'm not a vegetarian!" Zhu Wu waved the saber in his hand as if he was emboldened.
Brothers, let's go for flowers, collections, and gifts!）
