"What's your name? What do you do?"
Pei Yun spoke. If Zhang Zeshan hadn't run back to report, he wouldn't have known that someone had sneaked into the village.
Of course, Ergou and the other four bandits were punished. Each of them was whipped 10 times by the bald man, and they were not allowed to eat meat for a week. In addition, all their copper coins were confiscated.
The bandits who were originally on night watch took turns every seven days, but now these four have to take turns for a month.
The bald man also conveyed Pei Yun's words, that their negligence this time led to someone sneaking into the mountain stronghold, and the credit for killing officers and soldiers before was offset, which made the four people extremely depressed.
It's okay to get ten lashes, it's okay to not be allowed to eat meat, it's okay to do one moonlit night watch, but it would be too painful to lose this merit, because that is the certificate for entering the List of Gods after death.
However, when they heard that they could make up for their mistake by doing a good job as a night sentry for one month and could make meritorious deeds in the future, the four bandits breathed a sigh of relief and said that they would never gamble again.
Pei Yun also planned to use this incident as a warning to the bandits, telling them not to think they could sit back and relax after repelling the government troops.
At this moment, Xu Zong heard Pei Yun's question and said stubbornly, "I will never change my name, Xu Zong of Yanyu Tower!"
I heard Xu Zong introduce himself.
Chang Wei, Li Kui and others showed surprise on their faces.
"Yanyu Tower, the largest assassin organization in Qingyang County?"
"Are you the Xu Zong who can travel a thousand miles a day and eight hundred miles a night, and is known as the Speedy Guardian?"
"It seems that you still know my ability. Come on, you can kill me or chop me up as you like. If I, Xu Zong, frown, I am not a hero."
Xu Zong spoke with his neck stiff.
Pei Yun smiled and said, "It seems that you are quite famous. Since you want to die, I will grant your wish. Someone, drag him out and chop him off."
Xu Zong was stunned. Why the hell was this not playing by the rules?
Seeing that someone was really trying to drag him out, he panicked and the tough look on his face collapsed a little. He originally thought that if he told the other party about Yanyu Tower, the other party would be a little afraid, after all, this was a killer organization.
Qingyang County is just a branch, the headquarters is in Shudu. There is a saying in Yizhou that it is better to provoke the King of Bashu than to provoke Yanyu Tower. You can see how terrible this force is. If you are targeted by Yanyu Tower, you will be skinned alive if you don't die.
You are just a bandit, aren't you afraid of such a powerful killer organization?
Seeing two bandits grabbing his arms and trying to drag him out, Xu Zong hurriedly shouted, "Wait, I...I was just saying it casually, don't take it seriously, village chief."
Pei Yun raised his eyebrows and looked at him with a half-smile: "Weren't you so tough just now? Why, are you scared now?"
Xu Zong laughed dryly and said awkwardly, "As a Jianghu person, you have to have some dignity."
Pei Yun said: "Since you are from Yanyu Tower, then write a letter and ask Yanyu Tower to redeem you. You are so famous, it should be no problem for me to ask for 500,000 taels."
Xu Zong's face froze. "You are joking, Village Chief. When Yanyulou's men are on a mission, whether they are killed or captured, the organization will not care. If they want to collect money from the employer, they will send new people to complete the mission, so they will not take money to redeem people."
"So, you are worthless."
"Yes, I do." Xu Zong said quickly.
"I can run fast and deliver the message. As long as you don't kill me, I am willing to stay and serve the village chief."
Pei Yun didn't expect Xu Zong to have such a strong desire to survive, and he was really deceived by his tough words just now.
Sun Niaoniao whispered at this time: "Boss, why don't we leave him here to get information, so that we can know if there is any movement outside."
Pei Yun nodded. At present, no one on his side went out to gather information. It normally takes several hours to walk from the mountain village to Ruifeng County, and it takes almost a day to go there and back.
And news is time-sensitive. If there is someone who can run fast to deliver the message, he can get the news in time. He has no horse now, so Xu Zong is the best choice.
"Lock him up first."
Pei Yun waved his hand. Although the other party was useful, he was afraid of death. When his life was threatened, he would inevitably betray again. Pei Yun did not have any better means to control him now. He could only lock Xu Zong up first and then brainwash him.
Just like Zhang Zeshan, he was desperate to be redeemed at first, but now someone has taken him away, he wants to run back. This is the most successful brainwashing.
Drug control will certainly make people afraid to resist, but mental control is the most powerful.
Most of the bandits in the mountain stronghold now belong to this category, so there is no need to worry about their loyalty.
Pei Yun felt that he was becoming more and more like a pyramid scheme leader or a success guru.
Just that one sentence and I understood the applause.
Xu Zong breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that he was not killed. As long as the other party let down his guard, with his ability, no one could catch him if he wanted to run.
But soon, Xu Zong felt that this cottage was so attractive that he couldn't be driven away.
Like Zhang Zeshan, he became a die-hard fan of Pei Yun, and his only desire was to achieve great things, and then become a god after his death.
…
In the mall, Pei Yun prepared to buy some solar lights in order to prevent anyone from sneaking into the village again.
On the one hand, they strengthened vigilance and increased the number of patrolling bandits, and on the other hand, they lit up the village at night, so that any experts who wanted to sneak in would be afraid when they saw that the village was so bright.
After coming out of the mall, Pei Yun had people hang solar lights on the wall of the village. He also erected several wooden poles in the yard and hung solar lights on them as street lights.
After the village is built, we will build stone pillars to serve as street lamps.
The bandits looked at the solar lights with some curiosity, not knowing what they were. When the sun went down and the light became dim, the solar lights lit up one after another.
