Chapter 173: Recruiting the Bandits (1/2)

As soon as the silver bell rang, the expressions of the two bandit leaders in the Yunzang Realm suddenly changed, and then their posture changed from kneeling to rolling on the ground.

"Ah, ah, it hurts so much. Stop it. Stop it. Stop shaking it."

Periods of shrill screams came from their mouths. Because they were all Yunzang Realm warriors, their hearts were very strong, so the screams they made were particularly loud.

All the ordinary bandits kneeling on the ground could clearly hear their miserable screams, and their eyes began to show great fear.

Some of them were timid and even started to tremble with fear.

Even the people on Li Yan's side couldn't help but become a little frightened when they looked at Li Yan.

"Stop shaking, please, sir, dad, grandpa, please stop, please."

Li Yancai only rang the silver bell for less than ten breaths. The two bandit leaders, who were rolling around, endured the severe pain in their internal organs while twisting their bodies like maggots and crawled to Li Yan's side. At his feet, he kept kowtowing and begging for mercy.

Li Yan ignored the bandit leaders who had knocked their heads to the point of bleeding. Instead, he looked at Kong Tianyang aside and asked, "Qianhu, do you want to stop?"

When Kong Tianyang saw such a scene, his eyes remained calm, and even showed a look of surprise and satisfaction.

After hearing Li Yan's inquiry, he nodded and replied: "Stop and let them experience it. Don't hurt your body. We will need them in the future."

Kong Tianyang spoke, and Li Yan naturally stopped what he was doing.

As soon as the silver bells stopped ringing, the two bandit leaders, who had already been beaten to death, finally stopped kowtowing, then faced the earth and relaxed.

Even though their breaths were filled with dust, they still breathed greedily.

"It's good to be alive, and it feels good to be pain-free."

This is their only thought at the moment.

Li Yan put the silver bell in his left hand, and took the golden bell that he had held in his left hand with his right hand.

Seeing this scene, everyone else understood what Li Yan was going to do next, and couldn't help but focus their attention on the innate bandit leader.

At this moment, the innate bandit leader, who was focused on by hundreds of people at the same time, finally no longer remained silent, but let go of the reserve of the innate warrior in his heart, and quickly said to Li Yan: "Stop, I surrender, you let me do it Whatever I do, I do everything.”

The leader of the Xiantian bandits was also a smart man. When he saw Li Yan and the others, he did not kill them all immediately, but instead tortured them in this way. It was obvious that he wanted to use them.

As an innate master, even if he wants to surrender, he must negotiate better terms. This is why he has been silent before.

He wanted to wait until Li Yan and others took the initiative to find him to negotiate terms.

Unfortunately, this is the result we waited for in the end.

However, facing the innate bandit leader's begging for mercy, Li Yan just shook his head, then circulated his true energy and poured it into the golden bell.

A sound wave that is difficult for ordinary people to hear, with the golden bell as the center, began to spread and radiate in all directions.

The sound waves passed through the bodies of other people, but nothing happened to the others. Only when they came into contact with the innate bandit leader, something in the innate bandit leader's body seemed to be detonated.

Suddenly, small twisting lines began to appear on the surface of the innate bandit leader's body, as if there were a large number of earthworms squirming in his body.

"What is this? It hurts, itches, and feels so uncomfortable. Why is my Qi out of control?"

The innate bandit leader did not roll around on the ground like the other two Yunzang realm bandit leaders. Instead, he was fixed in a kneeling position, motionless.

However, his abnormality made people even more frightened, because the crawling lines on the surface of his body were getting bigger and thicker.

If it continues, I'm afraid it will explode and die.

Among them, the person who felt the deepest feeling was naturally the innate bandit leader who was involved.

However, he was too painful to speak at this time. He could only open his blood-red eyes, shed tears, and look at Li Yan with pleading eyes.

At this time, a hand stretched out and held Li Yan's right hand that kept shaking.

"Su Baihu, it's okay. I think he won't want to try this again in the future."

The person who said this was naturally Kong Tianyang next to Li Yan.

Li Yan nodded, put away the golden bell, and then took a step back.

As for the innate bandit leader, after the golden bell stopped emitting sound waves, the abnormalities in his body gradually disappeared, and the pain in his body began to recede.

This made him sigh in relief, and then he kowtowed heavily to Kong Tianyang.

"Thank you Qianhu, thank you Qianhu for sparing Xiao Xiao's life. From now on, I, Chen Hao, will definitely obey Qian Hu's advice. Qian Hu tells me to go east, but Xiao Xiao will never go west."

Kong Tianyang nodded with satisfaction. This was the first time for an innate warrior to bow down to him in such a low voice.

So, he ordered someone to untie the rope from Chen Hao's feet.

For this, I received some thanks from Chen Hao.

Then, Kong Tianyang took Chen Hao to a group of gangsters and began to give a speech.

"It is your misfortune and your luck that you can meet me today, because from today on, you will usher in a turning point in your destiny."

"I am the special recruitment envoy from Huang Shadao sent by the Great Zhou Dynasty to recruit elite soldiers and generals for the front line."

"You will become the first batch of soldiers under my command. If you perform well, you may even have the opportunity to become a formal member of the millions of soldiers of the Great Zhou Dynasty."

"..."

Kong Tianyang published a long speech there and began to try to brainwash many bandits.

It doesn't matter if it works or not, as long as you explain to these bandits their purpose of coming here.

At the same time, it can also provide Kong Tianyang with an opportunity to exercise.

This can be said to be a major feature of the Zhou army. Every time the army is dispatched, as the leader of a team, he must give a mobilization speech.

Of course, the lowest level of this leader must be the thousand-household level. Hundreds of households like Li Yan are not qualified.

"Hey, Su Baihu, those [Five Poison Pills] and [Qi Erosion Pills] look pretty powerful. Why haven't I heard of them before?"

Mu Yingmei came to Li Yan and asked Li Yan with interest.

Li Yan glanced at him, and then replied: "These elixirs are poison elixirs. Generally, people who are not alchemists, or people who pay great attention to this aspect, don't know much about these two elixirs."

"Moreover, these two poison pills are unique to our Su family. They are usually sold in limited quantities. Naturally, fewer people know about them. It's normal that you haven't heard of them."

Hearing this, Mu Yingmei was a little surprised: "Isn't your Su family a well-known alchemy family? How can you still refine poison pills?"

Regarding this question, Li Yan smiled and asked Mu Yingmei: "You have to know that since ancient times, poison doctors have not been separated into different families, and the same is true for elixirs."

"Sometimes, when the alchemist is refining the elixir, he will put the wrong proportions of some medicinal materials. The result is that either the elixir is scrapped or a new elixir appears."

"Some of these elixirs are elixirs with various toxicities."

"So, every alchemy family will have its own poisonous elixir unique to the family."

"Some terrifying poison pills can even directly poison Ningsha realm warriors."

After Li Yan finished speaking, Mu Yingmei showed a look of sudden realization. At the same time, she also thought about why Kong Tianyang would pull Li Yan, who had just become an innate warrior, into his team.

Instead of choosing his friends who have been friends for decades and are not weak in strength.

Obviously, he was interested in these two pills from the Su family to control the men he recruited.

Otherwise, relying on some money and training resources to get these long-standing bandits with blood in their hands to follow them wholeheartedly is undoubtedly a dream.

However, if these terrifying elixirs were used to control their life and death, they would not be able to do it half-heartedly.

After thinking about this clearly, Mu Yingmei asked Li Yan one last question: "Are the pills in your car all these two kinds of poisonous pills?"

Li Yan shook his head, watching Kong Tianyang's speech gradually coming to an end, and replied: "One-fifth is the poison pill, and one-tenth is the antidote."

"The vast majority of poison pills are [Five Poison Pills]."

"[Five Poison Pills] is an elixir composed of five kinds of strange poisons. The five kinds of strange poisons will corrode people's internal organs. However, if they are stimulated in advance without other means, the five poisons will maintain a strange Balance, so that people who are poisoned don’t know they are poisoned at all.”

"But the balance will always be broken one day. This period is about a month, which means that people who have been infected by the [Five Poison Pills] need to take the antidote once a month. Otherwise, even if I do not stimulate the toxins in their bodies, they will Being poisoned."

"As for [Qi Corrosion Pill], it is even more weird. [Qi Corrosion Pill] is a spiritual elixir, and its refining requires elixirs, so the output is not large, and it is only effective for innate warriors."

"Once the innate warrior swallows the [Qi-Erosion Pill], the toxins in the [Qi-Erosion Pill] will corrode the true energy in the body of the innate warrior. If it is not stimulated in advance, three months later, he will be infected by the [Qi-Erosion Pill]. An innate warrior with erysipelas will lose control of his true energy and explode to death. "

"So, if they don't want to die, they can just be our dogs."

Li Yan's voice was not loud, but not too quiet. The two bandit leaders who were three feet away from him could hear it clearly with their hearing.

The two people, who were still lying on the ground eating dirt, looked at each other and saw fear, surrender, and other complex emotions in each other's eyes.

Only there was no resistance.

They knew that Li Yan had obviously told them this on purpose, and wanted to pass it on to other gangsters through their mouths.

They can now say that they have only two choices. One is to succumb to Li Yan and others and become dogs for Li Yan and others.

The other is death.

Here, Kong Tianyang's speech has finished, and the gangsters have initially understood the intentions of their new leader.

At this time, it was Li Yan's turn to play again.

I saw him leading a group of people to Kong Tianyang's side, looking indifferently at the gangsters who were still kneeling on the ground.

When Li Yan approached, Chen Hao, who had been tortured, did not dare to look into Li Yan's eyes, but kept lowering his head.

The gangsters kneeling on the ground also looked at Li Yan in fear.

Obviously, Li Yan's image at this time was already as evil as a ghost in their hearts.

"Qianhu, I'm starting."

"I don't worry about you doing the work, but if you can kill as few as possible, kill as few as possible. After all, this is when we need people."

Kong Tianyang patted Li Yan on the shoulder and said with compassion.

Li Yan nodded, indicating that he understood.

Then, he directed the people behind him to take out all the rags from the people in the row in front of him.

After taking it off, Li Yan said nothing and no one dared to speak.

Looking at these wise gangsters, Li Yan couldn't help but nodded slightly, and then said: "Who among you has the strength of the Bone Forging Realm, crawl forward, and I will feed you something."

As Li Yan spoke, he took a bottle of [Five Poison Pills] just taken from the car from the hands of the Su family members beside him.

"Wow", such a naked attempt to feed people poisonous elixirs made these gangsters collectively take a step back. Some even fell on top of others because they stepped back too much. Can't get up.

Seeing the unexpected reactions of the gangsters, Li Yan's face remained calm.

"I'll count to three. If no one admits it, I'll use other means."

"three."

"Okay, it seems that you are all tough-minded, and I appreciate you very much."

When Li Yan finished saying this, all the gangsters looked confused. Brother, why did you just count to 'three'?

The people around Li Yan were also a little unable to react. The first person to react was Mu Yingmei who came with him.

With a "poof" sound, Mu Yingmei couldn't help but laugh.

Others then reacted and couldn't help but laugh too.

On the contrary, the scene was no longer nervous as before, and there was a little more joy.

This made Li Yan a little dumbfounded, right? Do these people have such a low point of laughter?

There was no other way but to wait until these people had finished laughing before Li Yan officially started working.

"You, name, cultivation level."

Li Yan came to the first person in the first batch and asked.

The man may have been relieved by the laughter of everyone just now, but when faced with Li Yan's question, he bravely apologized and said with a smile: "My lord, the little Wang Goudan is only at the level of dermabrasion. ”

Li Yan didn't say anything and asked the person behind him to record the information dictated by him on paper.

Afterwards, Li Yan came to the next person and continued the previous question.

In this way, there were more than 20 people in a row, and Li Yan asked them one by one.

The names are all kinds of weird, but the cultivation levels are the same. They are all in the skin-grinding realm. This seems to be a problem.

But Li Yan still asked the people behind him to record the news.

Then Li Yan came to that Wang Goudan again.

"Sir, is there anything else I can do?"

Wang Goudan asked anxiously.

Li Yan gave him a cold look and said, "Yes, point out the person who just lied."

Li Yan's words caused Wang Goudan's expression to change drastically. He couldn't help but glance at someone, but he immediately turned his eyes back under that person's fierce gaze.

All this happened under Li Yan's eyes, but he pretended not to see it.

Instead, he continued to put pressure on Wang Goudan: "How about it? Is there anyone who can choose?"

At this moment, almost everyone's eyes were directed at Wang Goudan. He could feel the power in these eyes, which made cold sweat break out on his forehead.

"I, I, I..."

He who never stuttered before, now stuttered.

Li Yan didn't say anything, shook his head, and walked past him.

Looking at Li Yan who was shaking his head, a great feeling of fear came from the bottom of his heart, but before he could react, a knife stabbed into his heart.

Wang Goudan is dead.

"What about you, Zhao Tieniu, can you point out the person who just lied?"

Li Yan's voice was not loud, but when it fell on the strong Zhao Tieniu, his body couldn't help but tremble.

After all, Wang Goudan’s blood had just wet his knees.

"I said, I said, it's Qian Ergou. He actually has the strength of the meat refining realm, but he reported it to the skin grinding realm."

Zhao Tieniu directly betrayed Qian Ergou.

When Qian Ergou heard this, he directly cursed: "Zhao Tieniu, you fart, I will fuck your mother, and you will spit blood on others."

Li Yan ordered people to seal Qian Ergou's mouth again, and then asked the third person: "Is what he said true?"

The man nodded quickly.

"Okay, next question, point out the person who just lied, other than Qian Ergou."

Li Yan was carrying out the registration work in an orderly manner, while Kong Tianyang and others were behind Li Yan, watching his actions.

"What a good strategy. With just one move, these gangsters can leave a thorn in each other's hearts, so that they can no longer unite and can only be driven by us."

"I don't know this plan, but it was devised by Master Tianyang."

The Kong family minister asked Qinghong.

"No, it was Su Han who planned it. This man is both civil and military and should not be underestimated."

Kong Tianyang stared at Li Yan with a solemn expression.

Obviously, he valued Li Yan very much.

And his words also caused Xiang Qinghong, Kong Ge, Yu Wenkui and others next to him to raise Li Yan's position to a new level in their hearts.
