After a long and arduous journey, Bai Feng finally arrived at a small village in the northernmost part of the Great Wei's territory.
If he continued north, he would be in a cold place.
Then, he would have to continue south to reach the Qiang people.
After all, the Qiang people and the Central Plains were like fire and water. Bai Feng would not foolishly go from Xiliang to the Qiang tribe.
If he went from the northernmost side, he would only need to pass through a small part of the Qiang territory to reach the place stated in the mission.
This way, he could avoid the Qiang people's sight.
If the Qiang people discovered him, it would be troublesome.
As it was getting late, Bai Feng decided to stay in this small village for the time being.
The people in the village all looked at Bai Feng strangely.
This was a cold place to begin with. Although they had immortal food, it was not so bad that the people could not make a living.
However, these people had been harassed by the Qiang people all year round and no one was smiling.
"Elder, may I know where the village chief is?"
Bai Feng walked around but could not find a place to stay. He could only stop an old man and ask.
The old man looked up at Bai Feng and said, "I am the village chief.
"I am the village chief. I wonder what business do you have with me?"
Bai Feng smiled faintly and said, "I am just a passerby.
"I'm just a passerby. I'm just passing by and would like to ask if there's a place for me to stay in this village?"
The village chief smiled faintly and said,
"A place to stay?"
"Hahaha, this is the first time I have seen a passerby coming to our village to stay."
"There is no place to stay in this village. Esteemed guest, please go somewhere else."
Bai Feng was puzzled.
"Elder, why do you say that?"
The village chief's expression became very serious.
"This place has been harassed by the Qiang people all year round. Who would dare to come here?"
"If not for the Wei Emperor spreading the immortal food that Mr Bai gave us here, we would have starved to death."
Bai Feng was puzzled.
"Didn't the Wei Emperor station soldiers at the border?"
"Why are you still harassed by the Qiang people?"
The village chief smiled bitterly.
"Soldiers? These soldiers are all afraid of death. How could they dare to resist the Qiang? "
"If they had half the strength of the City Defense Army in Western Liang, our village wouldn't be in such a state."
Bai Feng immediately frowned, and his face turned ugly.
She didn't expect that the rumors she heard while shopping were actually true!
Bai Feng clearly remembered that a long time ago, Cao Cao had sent many soldiers to various places to set up defenses.
This was especially true in the Northern Realm, which bordered many foreign races, making it the easiest place to invade.
Therefore, the northern border was of utmost importance, and many soldiers were sent there.
Recently, Cao Cao had ordered a lot of grenades to be delivered.
Logically speaking, these soldiers should be able to hold off the foreign races in the Northern Region.
However, how could this be?
Bai Feng vaguely remembered that there were at least seventy to eighty thousand soldiers.
With so many city guards, how could they not even be able to defend a small mountain village?
Moreover, according to the village chief's words, the soldiers here didn't seem to have any fighting power at all.
Could it be that Cao Wei's current prosperity was all fake?
But that didn't make sense. The city before this was still fine.
How could it have become like this at the border?
While Bai Feng was deep in thought, a man suddenly shouted from out of nowhere, "Hey!
"Not good! Not good! "
"The Qiang, the Qiang are coming!"
Hearing this, some of the villagers who were originally beside Bai Feng hurriedly ran to the other side.
Although they were extremely panicked, they retreated in an orderly manner, so practiced that it made one's heart ache.
It seemed that these villagers had experienced this situation too many times.
The village chief also hurriedly said.
"Er Gou, Er Gou! Go and get General Wang! "
The man called Er Gou immediately roared.
"Get what General Wang? This Wang fellow and his soldiers are all a bunch of good-for-nothings! "
"Village Chief, let's run!"
With that, Er Gou hurriedly ran after the crowd.
The village chief immediately sighed.
"Esteemed guest, you should leave too. I see that you're dressed like a scholar, so you must be a scholar.
"If these Qiang people see you, they'll definitely torture you to death!"
Hearing this, Bai Feng's expression turned extremely grave, but before he could speak …
Suddenly, a scream came from not far away.
Then, a rough voice slowly came over.
"Hahahaha, these Central Plains dogs are just as the Commander expected!
"They always run away. This time, we'll attack them from all sides. Let's see where they can run to!"
Hearing this, Bai Feng's expression darkened, and he hurriedly rushed to the source of the voice.
The village chief hurriedly hid in the house, not daring to breathe too loudly.
At this moment, Bai Feng quickly arrived at the place where the crowd had fled.
All the villagers who had fled earlier were now gathered together, not daring to move forward.
Seeing the scene at the front, Bai Feng couldn't help but frown.
He didn't expect this group of Qiang people to be like the Xiongnu of the past!
There were seven or eight corpses on the ground in front of him, and blood flowed like a river.
At the front, there were about twenty Qiang soldiers on horseback.
The Qiang leader's broadsword was still dripping with blood.
"Bring all the young women back! Don't leave a single one alive. Kill them all! "
Suddenly, the Qiang leader roared, and the twenty Qiang soldiers immediately shouted in agitation. They raised their swords and rushed toward the villagers.
These villagers were completely scared out of their wits. They stood there blankly, waiting for death to come.
Just as the first Qiang soldier was about to reach the villagers …
Suddenly, he felt an invisible force hit his horse.
Then, the horse under him foamed at the mouth and fell to the ground, dead.
The Qiang soldier was caught off guard and fell to the ground.
Before he could even stand up, a sword that radiated a cold light was placed on his neck.
Slash!
With a clear sound, the Qiang soldier's head was chopped off, and blood gushed out like a fountain.
The Qiang soldiers beside him were stunned by this scene.
This all happened in the blink of an eye!
The Qiang leader glared angrily at the person in front of him.
This person was Bai Feng.
The person in front of him was wearing a scholar's robe that was as white as jade. There were a few drops of blood on his robe, and he looked to be in his early twenties.
The Qiang leader roared.
"Kill this person!"
With that, all the Qiang soldiers charged toward Bai Feng.
