Everyone was detained in different cells. When Zuo Qiu Sijin left, she looked back at Xu You, with a little concern hidden in her eyes. Of course, she would not admit that this was because she had a different impression of Xu You than others, but because she was a companion who had been through life and death, she was normal care for the only person who could not do martial arts.

Xu You nodded to her and said nothing. Perhaps this calmness that was fearless in the face of danger gave people great confidence, and Zuo Qiu Sijin heard what the mountain master said, in order to claim the ransom, it would not be detrimental to them now, so he followed the bandits.

The conditions in the prison were pretty good, covered with hay, there was no big smell of mold or rats and ants running around. Xu You sat cross-legged and waited for not long. The mountain master came in alone with a light and pushed the door open. The two of them looked at each other, and their eyes were full of uncontrollable excitement.

The lantern was gently placed on the ground, pulling his figure long, raising his hand to straighten his clothes, then bent his knees and knelt down, folding his hands on the ground, touching the back of his hands, and a dignified way:

"Young Master!"

When he raised his head again, the tiger's eyes were filled with tears, as if these two words had been held in the chest and abdomen for tens of millions of years, never forgotten or drifted away. Xu You walked slowly to the front, knelt down, opened his arms and hugged him tightly, and said, "Brother Qi, you are still alive, it's great!"

Qi Xiao, one of the Xu family's tribes, has been with Xu You's father for eighteen years since he was seven years old. He taught him by example and by his own words and deeds, and taught him how to read, read, martial arts, military tactics, and wisdom. All of them are outstanding soldiers in the Xu family's tribe, and are deeply appreciated and valued by the family.

Xu You played with Qi Xiao since childhood and had a very good relationship. He thought he had also died in the bloody night of the Yixing Incident. How could he have thought that many years later, he would meet again in the deep mountains and forests of Jiangzhou?

Qi Xiao finally couldn't bear it and hugged Xu You and cried loudly. If his subordinates saw the woman's expression of the Changsheng thief who could stop the child from crying, they would be frightened and scared.

"If the old master sees the young master safe, he will be in peace in his eyes..."

When talking about his father, Xu You also had tears in his eyes. He helped Qi Xiao get up, sat down, and told each other about the various things he had left. It turned out that on the eve of the Yixing Incident, Qi Xiao was ordered to go to Yizhou to do business and luckily escaped the catastrophe. But his name was also registered with the prince, not an easy private part. In desperation, he had to go to Linchuan to defect to Xu Shunhua.

At that time, Xu You was seriously injured and did not know his life or death. Only Xu Shunhua, who was still alive in Linchuan County, had the rest of his strength. She was both the princess of Linchuan and a girl who married far away, and would not receive much attention and surveillance. The most important thing is that Xu Shunhua is strong and bold, and is a hundred times better than many bearded men in the world.

Qi Xiaodong hid in Tibet, and after arriving in Linchuan, he took the opportunity to contact Xu Shunhua. Xu Shunhua took him in without hesitation. He originally thought that he would whitewash his identity, find a place to settle him, and then make plans. The prince didn't know what his mind was, perhaps to humiliate Linchuan King An Xiulin, or perhaps to deliberately stimulate Xu Shunhua, so he actually sent Xu Hao's head to Linchuan. Xu Shunhua turned white overnight and wrote a letter angrily, scolding the prince and Shen, which forced An Zidao to enclose the couple in the royal palace. The entire Linchuan was in a terrifying atmosphere of martial law. The Sili Mansion had to go out everywhere, and the originally safe hiding place immediately became extremely dangerous. Qi Xiao did not dare to stay anymore. He was not afraid of death, but was afraid that once exposed, it would bring a catastrophe to Xu Shunhua.

After escaping Linchuan overnight, Qi Xiao suddenly realized that the world was so big that there was no place to live. He almost committed suicide by slashing his sword and followed Lao Zhui in the underground. When he was desperate, someone found him and told him that the 100,000 Panshe Mountain was high and dense, but it was a must-pass between Ge Yang and Linchuan. He could temporarily become a bandit, develop his strength secretly, and wait for the time to change. Maybe he would have a chance to see the light of day again.

Xu You's eyes narrowed slightly and he asked, "Who is that person?"

Qi Xiao looked full of admiration and said, "Jiangzuo Zhuge, Jiangzhou Governor Zhu Zhi!"

Xu You's head was blasting. Before he left the Yixing cage, Zhu Zhi had already begun to gather his old subordinates for the Xu family. What does it mean to be far-sighted and what does it mean to plan ahead? If Xu You was in a slump, this part of the potential old forces would completely belong to the Zhu family. If Xu You made a comeback, he would need to rely on these old subordinates, but should he still accept Zhu Zhitian's favor?

This is a dignified plot, and Xu You’s only grateful in his heart!

"No wonder, when I was in Geyang County, I was still thinking that Zhu Zhi had been the governor of Jiangzhou for more than five years. With his means, how could he sit down and see such a loud bandits gathering together under his rule... It turns out that he is supporting you..."

"Yes! Originally, I had only a single horse. Zhu Envoy gave me money, grain and armor to survive the initial difficult moment. Later, the prefect of Linchuan sent troops to encircle and suppress the enemy many times, and our troops suffered heavy losses. It was also the envoy's help from time to time. Only then did he turn bad luck into good luck and gradually develop to his current growth."

"Oh, why didn't Uncle Zhu Si tell the prefect to let you go?"

"First, we must never let outsiders know that I have any relationship with Zhu Envoy Zhu. I am in the dark and the envoy is in the bright, so that the yin and yang can rotate and form a support for each other; second, Zhu Envoy Zhu personally told me not to pass by Panshe Mountain. If **yi loses his ambition to compete for power, he will become a thief who will rob families and rob. Therefore, before he became the governor of Jiangzhou, he had driven the prefect of Linchuan to pay attention to the movements of Panshe Mountain through other channels. After being appointed as the governor, he deliberately ordered the prefect's office to increase the intensity of encirclement and suppression, with the purpose of making me be prepared for danger in times of peace and sharpen the sword in my hand with the sword of the court..."

This kind of behavior is full of Zhu Zhi's style. Xu You is not surprised. He pondered for a while and said, "I heard that there are eight thieves in Panshe Mountain. Which one are you ranked?"

Qi Xiao laughed and said, "Panshe Mountain has always had only the bandit of Changsheng. If I hide here and let others occupy the mountain as king, it would be better to wipe my neck as soon as possible so as not to embarrass our Xu family!"

Xu You was too familiar with Qi Xiao. Seeing his smile like this, he knew there was a fraud inside and said, "Those are all baits you released?"

"Yes!" Qi Xiao whispered: "The so-called cunning rabbit has three holes. I will divide my confidants out and set up my own house, and then deliberately create an illusion of mutual hatred. The prefect's mansion is determined to deal with me, and will try every means to alienate and bribe them. I can use my plan, and I can also set up my pockets in advance, so that the prefect Yu will lose his troops and generals and lose face!"

"Oh, is the prefect of Linchuan from Yu?"

"Yu He, the nephew of Shangshu Ling Yu Shi, hadn't always been in trouble in the county and had the performance of middle and lower grades, how could he have been unable to be promoted in Linchuan for many years..."

Zhu Zhi has a grudge with Yu He!

Xu You also thought it through his heels. Zhu Zhi always beats rabbits when doing things, and it is not so easy. He asked Qi Xiao to fall into grass on Panshe Mountain, because the terrain of Panshe Mountain is suitable, and because of this, he can give Yu He some eye drops, which will drag down his pace and rhythm of promotion.

The nasty Zhu Zhi, however, Xu You admires it very much!

"How many plots do you have now?"

"There are more than 400 people in the zombie, including the Golden Top, the Grinding Steal, the Thunder and Fire Steal, etc., and there are two to three hundred people, plus the mountain hoists and stakes placed in the surrounding counties, a total of more than 2,000 people." Qi Xiao said: "Young Master, don't underestimate these two thousand people. Although there are not many people, they are all good at fighting elites and are not afraid of death. I use military law to govern the thieves and obey orders. I can follow all of them, and I can take a try!"

"good!"

Xu You was overjoyed. He was not short of soldiers. If Zuo Qi was awarded the commander of military farming, the entire Yangzhou would be his military warehouse. However, in a short time, he could not train troops that could go to the battlefield to kill the enemy. At best, the soldiers recruited by military farming were only farmers with swords and guns. However, with Qi Xiao's two thousand people, the nature was completely different. As long as these two thousand people were disrupted and reorganized into the new army's team, the backbone of each level was enriched, and a wolf led five sheep would undergo earth-shaking changes.

Qi Xiao said in a deep voice: "Young Master, I have been training troops in Panshe Mountain over the years, and I have secretly contacted many old subordinates of the Xu family. Some of them, like me, were lucky enough to escape from their lives in the Yixing County Wang tribe, some were expelled from the army and the prefectures, and some were directly abandoned to their military positions, and were happy to be free and easy in the world. These people are not many, and their former positions are not high, with only more than a hundred people, but they are watching and helping each other and loyal to the Xu family. Some have made a fortune in business, some have become robbers at the sea, some have also fallen grass in the mountains of Ningguang Prefectures, and some have made fake identities and become slaves to guard the houses of major aristocratic clans... But no matter where they are, what kind of life they are now, as long as the young master gives orders, even if they are thousands of miles away, he will come with a knife to seek justice for the wronged souls who died that night!"

Xu You patted his shoulder and said, "We not only demand justice, but also seek a prosperous and prosperous life for everyone! Now, the time for Zhu Zhi to say has come!"

Qi Xiao was so excited that his eyebrows were trembling. After many years, he did not dare to slack off for a day. Although the goal of revenge seemed impossible to achieve, he always kept in mind what Zhu Zhi said:

Although it is extremely difficult, only by not letting go of the knife can you win!
