When Shadow Demon said this, Tianxin immediately became interested.
This Long Qi is quite capable. He has just become an official and has received the support of the Lei family.
Moreover, he directly became a general and had people from the Shangguan family around him.
Isn't it obvious that the future emperor will be this Long Qi?
Once approved by the Shangguan family, if the Shangguan family also supports Long Qi, then it will be completely stable for Long Qi to ascend the throne in the future.
"If Shangguan Yunzhou recognizes Long Qi, then the entire Shangguan family will most likely recognize Long Qi."
"This should be the result that the emperor wants to see, so he asked Shangguan Yunzhou to follow Long Qi."
"The purpose of coming here to destroy the bandits is just to bring the two of them together. Killing the bandits is not the point. What matters is the achievements after the bandits are eliminated."
After hearing this, Shadow Demon's eyes showed approval and nodded.
"The young master is right, Prince Jing thinks so too. Since Long Qi is here for a meritorious service, what do you think should be done?"
Tianxin smiled, very brightly.
"Easy, then give him a reward and let them kill some bandits."
After hearing this, Shadow Demon shook his head slightly.
Tianxin looked at it with a trace of doubt in his eyes.
"Master, this time it's not that simple. Shangguan Wei is involved. Judging from this, we want to completely eliminate all bandits here."
"So, just a few bandits will definitely not satisfy them. Only with a sufficient number of bandits can they believe it."
Tianxin was stunned for a moment, nodded, and acknowledged the matter.
"Coming with such a big fanfare, I must have a lot of appetite. It seems that I have to give up a lot of people before I can get rid of this Long Qi."
"This alone is not enough. The contribution of these bandits is not very great. A group of people must be replaced. At the same time, there must be a scapegoat."
Tianxin was silent and immediately understood Shadow Demon's intention.
"Shadow Demon, you came here, didn't you attract the attention of the Dragon Shadow Guard?"
"No, please don't worry, young master, I am taking a secret path."
"You go and reply to father and say that I understand everything. In the past few days, I will personally start the layout and give His Highness Long Qi a huge credit."
"Don't worry, young master. I will definitely bring the message to you. Please take care of yourself, young master."
Tianxin nodded and watched the Shadow Demon leave this place.
After Shadow Demon left, Tianxin did not get up. He sat on the chair alone and started a detailed plan.
*..*
As night fell, Long Qi led his people to the foot of the mountain.
The situation on the mountain cannot be seen clearly, and there is not much noise coming from the whole top.
The mountain is not big. There are some simple thatched houses on it, like a cottage where bandits gather.
Such bandits were probably just ordinary people. Long Qi showed no fear, waved his hand, and walked up the mountain.
When he was about to approach, Long Qi stopped.
He waved his hand to Baichuan on the side.
"Baichuan, go ahead. If you are an ordinary person, just injure him. Bring the leader here."
Baichuan nodded, turned over and dismounted.
After Bai Feng and Zhao Meng heard this, they immediately looked puzzled.
"Half-sword hero, can he go alone?"
"Don't worry, with such a small number of bandits, he can do it alone."
While several people were talking, Baichuan had completely left the place.
With a flash of figure, Baichuan rushed forward. This moment of revealing his skills immediately shocked Baifeng and Zhao Meng.
Everyone was waiting here, and Baichuan rushed straight into the stronghold.
There wasn't much noise coming from inside. It didn't take long before Baichuan opened the village door and walked out, carrying a person in his arms.
A big man with a black face trembled in Baichuan's hands.
After Baichuan came to the crowd, he waved his hand and threw the man to the ground.
Bang!
The big man who fell to the ground looked up at everyone in horror.
"Don't kill me...don't kill me...what kind of heroes are you?"
Long Qi did not dismount, but looked down at the strong man kneeling on the ground.
Baichuan had already walked out, and someone behind him lit a few torches.
Several guards immediately stepped forward and stood beside the kneeling man.
With the lighting of the torch, Long Qi could see more clearly.
For a moment, Long Qi felt particularly surprised.
What happened to such a strong man who looked so strong? How could he be so frightened by Baichuan?
Under the light of the torch, this strong man can be clearly seen.
The strong man's face, including his forehead, was already covered in sweat.
It was late at night, and it was halfway up the mountain. A cold wind was blowing. Where did this strong man get such strong sweat?
Upon closer inspection, Long Qi discovered that the body of this strong man was trembling crazily.
Long Qi understood in an instant that this was not sweat from being frightened at all, but severe pain.
Only strong pain can produce so much sweat.
"Tell me, who are you? How dare you lead people here to become bandits?"
"My dear Ouma, who are you? I'm just trying to make ends meet, but I don't know how I offended you, my dear fellow?"
"Hero, please spare my life. I won't dare to do this anymore. Please let me go."
Long Qi wanted to laugh after hearing this. Under the severe pain, this man's voice completely changed.
Such a rough and strong man actually sounded like a woman.
And when he said one sentence, he kept vibrating.
"Are you going to be a bandit yourself? Or are you being instigated by others? Do you know all the bandits around here?"
"I know you, no one is instructing me. I am just living for a living. I hope a good man can spare my life."
Long Qi instantly lost interest. How could the government officers and soldiers be unable to eliminate such bandits?
I'm afraid there's no need to think about this matter in detail. There must be something wrong with the government.
After Long Qi heard this, he immediately shook his head.
"You don't want to tell the truth? Then do you think I will spare your life?"
"Ah... hero, let me tell you, this is a small hall in the Magic Mountain, and the little one is just a little boss here."
When Long Qi heard this, he immediately raised his eyebrows. Sure enough, someone was behind this.
"Let me be clear, where is the Magic Mountain?"
After hearing this, Wang Ma on the ground immediately shook his head violently.
"You don't want to say it?"
"Ah... no, no, I am willing, but I don't know. I only know that I belong to the magic mountain, but what this magic mountain is, I don't know at all."
"You really don't know?"
"I swear, I really don't know, but I guess that this magic mountain should be a sect, and I am just a small leader of this sect."
"Who is your best friend?"
"The younger ones don't have a seal, so they take orders from Li Ergou on the nearby mountain."
"Get up and take us there."
Long Qi said lightly, with a smile on his lips.
Ouma stood up from the ground with difficulty, his whole legs trembling crazily.
Long Qi took a closer look and immediately burst out laughing wildly. For a moment, everyone couldn't help but laugh.
Ouma's lower body clothes were completely stained red with blood.
