Chapter 42: Each Has His Own Agenda
Inside the spacious Yiqi Hall of Tuoshui Village.
The three groups gathered here to discuss how to deal with the Black Wind Village.
If Jiang Dali were here, he would find that among these three groups, one of them actually consisted of two players.
The other two groups were the two leaders of Tuoshui Village and the third in command of Chongfeng Village, Xuezhi Ningsuan.
"The new leader of the Black Wind Village is so arrogant that he dares to come to our Tuoshui Village tomorrow to kill us? I will see how capable this guy is tomorrow."
The person who was speaking at this time was the second leader of Tuoshui Mountain Stronghold, Pingfengchan Gusuan. This man was bald and had no eyebrows, with a ferocious appearance. His voice was loud and powerful, and it seemed that the beams of the house were shaking. He was full of anger.
Among the two players, Qingniu, who was wearing a cowhide wristband, raised his head and said with a smile, "My news is absolutely true. All the village leaders know that Black Wind Village has been recruiting people recently. I have a brother who has already infiltrated Black Wind Village, so my news is true and valid."
"Humph! Greed is greedy! Jiang Dali thought that he could unify the entire green forest around Huicheng just by fighting Du Dajin to a draw. He really doesn't know his own limitations!"
The third in command of Chongfeng Mountain Stronghold, Xuezhi Ningsun, spoke in a grim tone as he looked at the chief of Tuoshui Mountain Stronghold, Guidao Ji Ming, who had four scars on his face and a very ferocious appearance.
"Master Ji, since the master of Black Wind Village is so ignorant, why don't we join forces and take over the entire Black Wind Village together, and then share the spoils of war. What do you think? I am here to represent the intention of our master, Ju Kong."
"Join hands?"
Ghost Blade Ji Ming had a fake smile on his face, and the four scars on his face were wriggling like four centipedes.
The second village chief Gu Falcon immediately said, "Brother, we don't need to join forces to deal with a mere Black Wind Village. No matter how powerful the Black Wind Village chief is, you and I can still take him down together. As for the bear, humph, he's just an old and cowardly turtle."
"idiot!"
The two players looked at each other, feeling helpless.
These NPCs really have low IQs. At this time, they are still thinking about dealing with Black Wind Village together. Do they really think that Jiang Dali, who can defeat Shaolin lay disciple Du Dajin, is just a name for nothing?
Qingniu raised his head and was about to dissuade him.
Ghost Blade Ji Ming smiled and shook his head, "Second brother, since Chongfeng Village is so sincere, we certainly can't turn them away. After all, Black Wind Village also has a lot of people. Even if we take them all, we will both suffer losses. It's a good thing that brothers from Chongfeng Village are here to help."
Gu Falcon was stunned and immediately wanted to turn around as well.
Even if their Tuoshui Village could really take over the Heifeng Village, there would definitely be a lot of casualties.
By then, both sides will suffer losses, and Chongfeng Village might even benefit from it.
Xuezhi Ningsuan nodded and said, "Village Master Ji is indeed a smart man. It's a pity that Feng Sihai, the village master of the Gale Village, is too cautious and timid. He is unwilling to join forces with us. However, in this case, our two families must be extra careful about any tricks they play."
"Feng Sihai dares to play tricks after our two families join forces. He is courting death. Now he is waiting and watching."
Ji Ming shook his head and looked at Qingniu and the other two players with a flickering look in his eyes. "You two tried your best to promote our two families to join forces to deal with Black Wind Village, and helped us to gather intelligence. I wonder what your intention is?"
Qingniu raised his head, anticipating this question. "In fact, my two brothers have always had a grudge against the Black Wind Village leader. Unfortunately, the Black Wind Village has a large number of people and is very powerful. It would be extremely difficult for the two of us to capture the Black Wind Village leader.
The only way is to take advantage of this opportunity and borrow your help to capture the leader of Black Wind Village.
Don't worry, my two brothers only want the leader of Black Wind Village, Jiang Dali.
If you are willing to help, my two brothers are willing to help you in this battle with all our strength. We will not take any spoils of war afterwards, and we are willing to offer you 500 taels of silver as a reward."
After saying this, Qingniu raised his head and took out a fifty-liang silver ingot from his bosom and placed it on the table. "How about this as the deposit?"
Ji Ming and Xuezhi Ningsuan looked at each other and smiled.
Ji Ming nodded, "Since we all have a common goal, we are all one family. With the help of two brave men, I believe that the leader of the Black Wind Village, Jiang Dali, is only here to die."
They didn't even take the deposit of fifty taels of silver seriously
But the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so it’s a win to get extra help.
When Qingniu raised his head, the two of them sneered in their hearts.
Their goal is not just to capture Jiang Dali. None of these stupid NPCs will be able to escape.
…
at the same time.
On the other side, in the Jifeng Village more than 40 miles away, Feng Sihai, the leader of the Jifeng Village who had just dealt with a group of players, was talking to Tianlang Xiaoyue, a player wearing a blue shirt and carrying a scimitar.
"You want me to lead my brothers to seize the opportunity to raid the Black Wind Village's lair? Hehe, little brother, you must have misunderstood. The Black Wind Village's leader Jiang Dali is not someone you want to mess with. I have no intention of messing with such a person just for a little profit."
"The leader of Fengda Village is too cautious. Although the leader of Heifeng Village, Jiang Dali, is very powerful, he will surely die when Tuoshui Village and Chongfeng Village join forces.
The fighting among these three parties can be described as a fight between clams and cranes, where the fishermen gain. You, in Jifeng Village, now have the opportunity to be the fisherman, so why not do it?
If the village chief Feng Da agrees, I am willing to lend a helping hand, and I only hope that the village chief can share some of the spoils with me."
…
The next day.
Hundreds of bandits gathered in the village, waiting for Jiang Dali's orders.
Jiang Dali was wearing leather armor with a layer of gold silk armor underneath, a tiger skin cloak, and a gold-backed nine-ring knife on his back. He walked up to the platform surrounded by several guards and bandits.
Under the excited and expectant gazes of a group of players, Jiang Dali looked around and waved his hand, "Brothers, step out and get ready to go!"
rumble--
Suddenly, nearly half of the surrounding bandits stood out in small groups, some nervous and some excited.
Xiong Ba stepped forward and asked Jiang Dali nervously, "Brother, are you really not planning to bring all your men with you? That old man Ji from Tuoshui Village is no simple character either."
Jiang Dali glanced at Xiong Ba, stretched out his broad hand and patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, the stronghold will be handed over to you and the brothers who stayed behind. Just in case Chongfeng stronghold takes the opportunity to attack."
Xiong Ba was helpless and could only say righteously, "Don't worry, brother, I'm here to protect the house. I'm at home."
"I don't believe you."
Jiang Dali rolled his eyes inwardly.
An old hand like Xiong Ba may be able to hold his own when the game is going his way.
If there is any unexpected disadvantage, he will definitely be the first to run away.
After stepping down the platform, Jiang Dali led a group of people down the mountain.
At this time, there were 40 horses at the foot of the mountain.
Among so many horses, more than 30 of them were found by Jiang Dali through the Qingyi Tower, and he spent nearly two thousand taels of silver to buy them.
Otherwise, without these horses as a means of transportation, the expedition to other mountain strongholds would be nothing but a joke, and the bandits would be exhausted by the time they reached the destination.
"Two people ride on one horse, let's go!"
Jiang Dali gave orders.
All the bandits followed suit.
Soon forty horses set off in a hurry, and the sound of their hooves trampling the ground made a rumbling sound, which was quite loud.
Players usually don’t see such a scene, and as one of them, they were all very excited. They immediately took videos to record it and posted them on the forum to show off.
Jiang Dali was riding alone on his fine horse Dayuan. He glanced at the three very eye-catching red-named players among the players, and a hint of sarcasm appeared at the corner of his mouth.
"It seems that I will be able to get in touch with the people from the official Ba Jue Tang this time. I hope that the current official masters will not disappoint me too much."
