 "In front? Very good, very good!"

Hearing this answer, Xiao Han nodded repeatedly, looked around, jumped off his horse, and took Sun Ergou to the roadside to avoid delaying the army on their way.

Standing under a tree on the roadside, Xiao Han wiped the sweat from his forehead and asked the soldier in front of him: "Er Gou, do you know if there are any strong men near your home?"

"Strong man?" When Sun Ergou heard this name, he secretly raised his head and glanced at Xiao Han, his eyes full of doubts.

"Idiot, a strong man is a villain! Robbers, bandits, bandits!" Xiao Han glanced at Sun Ergou and explained feebly. How come this stupid boy doesn't understand anything.

"Mountain...bandit..."

Hearing this name, Sun Ergou in front of Xiao Han was obviously stunned! Then he was shocked, his whole body trembled, his lips trembled, and he didn't speak for a long time!

Sun Ergou's strangeness naturally caught Xiao Han's eyes.

He looked at this thin young man and asked strangely: "What? I said bandits, what are you afraid of? Could it be..."

Xiao Han originally wanted to ask: Has Sun Ergou been bullied by bandits before?

But he never expected! Before he could finish this sentence, Sun Ergou's legs softened and he fell to his knees with a plop! Then he knocked his head with a bang!

"General, have mercy! General, have mercy! I used to be a bandit, but I didn't do any bad things, and the leader and the others were killed! I am innocent!" Under the surprised gazes of Xiao Han and others, Sun Er

The dog kowtowed and whimpered!

"What, you are a bandit?"

After finally hearing what Sun Ergou was crying about, not only Xiao Han was dumbfounded now, but Xiaodong and Lengzi were also dumbfounded!

How could you unintentionally solve a major case?

"You, you don't know?"

When Sun Ergou said this, he himself was stunned! When he reacted, he wanted to slap himself twice!

That’s right! I’m just asking myself, but why do I feel so guilty and so uncontrollable?

"Ahem, I don't know!"

What made Sun Ergou burst into tears was that Xiao Han and Lengzi in front of him shook their heads together. Their serious looks almost made him vomit three liters of blood on the spot!

"I..." Sun Ergou was so annoyed that his intestines were almost green, so he asked the mute to eat Coptis chinensis. He couldn't tell the story of his suffering!

"Have you ever been a bandit? Have you ever harmed anyone?"

After a while, Xiao Han finally came to his senses and asked dubiously.

He doesn't care about Sun Ergou's previous "career", even if this "career" is a bit special!

But if you have harmed others, the nature is completely different!

Xiao Han is not a pedantic person, but he stubbornly believes that if a person does something wrong, he must bear the punishment for doing the wrong thing! No one has the right to forgive a person's mistakes! All forgiveness is just

Another injury to the victim!

Poor Sun Ergou was already despairing, but when he heard Xiao Han suddenly ask him this question, he immediately felt a little hope rising from the bottom of his heart. He quickly got up and kowtowed and said:

"General, it's true! I really didn't have enough to eat, so I followed others to become a bandit! But I was young and weak at that time! The boss disliked me, so he only asked me to do some sweeping in the village.

It’s just a menial job to keep my stomach full! Let alone killing people, I’ve never even seen an outsider!”

"Then why didn't you become a bandit and become a soldier again?" Xiao Han looked at Sun Ergou and asked with a frown! At the same time, he thought to himself: It's too casual to enlist in the Tang Dynasty. Don't you need to be screened?

?Don’t you check the ingredients? Don’t you check the eighteenth generation of ancestors?

However, Xiao Han seemed to have forgotten that if the Tang Dynasty had been strict about enlistment, he, a guy who couldn't even get out of the army after a generation, would have been dragged out and hacked for five minutes!

Probably because he realized that Xiao Han did not want to investigate him immediately, Sun Ergou finally became a little more courageous. He swallowed secretly and quickly explained: "Being a mountain bandit was just something I had to do! I didn't want to at all.

Do that work! But I didn’t dare to leave until one time, the people in the village went out to do business..."

After saying the words "doing business", Sun Ergou subconsciously raised his head and glanced at Xiao Han.

What they call business is, of course, nothing more than business without capital! If another person heard this statement, they would probably be angry!

However, Xiao Han was once infected by a big boss named "Supreme Treasure". He was obviously more curious than disgusted with bandits. Hearing what Sun Ergou said, he was not angry at all, but urged him to continue talking.

After swallowing again, Sun Ergou continued: "At that time, the village leader took all the people who could fight and left, but they didn't come back until night! The few of us who stayed behind knew that it was not good, so we left that night

I was so scared that I ran away! It took several days before I dared to go back and take a look. Unexpectedly, at that time, no one in the village had returned. We knew by then that those people would never come back!

Without the village master and the others, this village would not be able to survive at all! We who went back discussed it, packed up and divided the things! I distributed a set of broken armor and some food. After returning home, we passed

Not long after, I happened to meet the conscripts, so I followed him into the military camp."

Sun Ergou said these words very sincerely. Xiaodong saw that Xiao Han was still doubtful, so he leaned into his ear and said: "Master Hou, I think what this boy said is true! With such courage, he would probably kill a pig."

Don't dare! Let alone kill people! Besides, we are short of men in the army now, let alone armor, even if we have a knife, we can come in! This is not surprising!"

Xiao Han, who was still a little skeptical at first, believed most of it after hearing Xiaodong's words!

Harming people is not as simple as thinking about it. It requires a lot of charisma to support it. The little guy in front of me who just said a few words and said nothing clearly does not have that kind of charisma.

Thinking of this, Xiao Han said to Sun Ergou: "Get up, let's not pursue the matter of the bandits for the time being! If a mistress comes to visit in the future, it will not be too late to settle the accounts!"

"Thank you, general, thank you, general!" Sun Ergou was overjoyed when he heard this, and stood up with a lot of gratitude, his legs still shaking until now.

Seeing Sun Ergou Zhan Weiwei's appearance, Xiao Han couldn't help but feel a little funny.

This bandit is so cowardly, he can’t even match 1% of Cheng Yaojin’s strength. It’s such an embarrassment to the bandit!

Wanting to tease him a few more words, Xiao Han suddenly remembered the military rations. He coughed and asked Sun Ergou: "By the way, you just said that you guys would share your luggage, so you shared a set of armor and some food."

?”

Sun Ergou had a hard time escaping, but now he was very grateful to Xiao Han. After hearing this, he immediately nodded like a chicken eating rice: "Yes, yes!"

Xiao Han thought for a while and asked with some confusion: "Are they bullying Li and giving you less?"

"No, they didn't get much!" Sun Ergou answered honestly.

"Then how many people are there in your village?" Xiao Han asked again.

"More than twenty!" Sun Ergou replied.

"More than 20 people are still so poor?! Are you bandits or beggars?"

Looking at Sun Ergou in surprise, Xiao Han suddenly felt a little unavoidable. Why was this different from what he imagined?
