The bandit leader shook his head: "No, no, no, wait a little longer. Just in case there is a scam."
I heard that the King of Xiang was extremely treacherous, and there might be soldiers ambushing him in the car.
Just as he was talking, a child over there got out of the car and asked the old man: "How far further."
The old man replied: "Come on, come on, young master, don't be impatient."
The child took out a big gold lock from the clothes on his chest and played with it: "It's so boring."
The wind blows the car curtains, and the car is full of luggage and no one is there.
The young man: "Master, don't expose the golden lock. Let's hurry up. The mountains and forests are lush here. It's dark and we're afraid of thieves."
"You don't have to wait until dark. There are thieves now." The bandit leader grinned and yelled at the people around him, "Such a fat guy. Fuck you, don't wait any longer."
He rushed down with his people, surrounded the carriage, and was about to speak out the special lines for Jie Dao with great momentum.
The child suddenly smiled and said, "I drove this road, planted this tree, and robbed it."
The bandit leader was stunned for a moment, then became angry and yelled: "Fart, I should have said that."
The child stood up and pointed to the road: "I opened this road. Just hand over the gold and silver that you have robbed recently. I will spare your life."
The bandit leader turned red with anger: "Damn it, I have been a bandit for more than ten years, and this is the first time I have met such a arrogant child. Today I must chop you into pieces and throw you into the mountains to feed the tigers!!"
The child sighed: "Oh, it's not good to fight and kill too much. I still want to talk some sense into you."
The bandits realized they had been tricked and turned around to run away.
There was a flash of silver light, and the bandit leader's head fell down, covering his legs.
The bandits stiffened and stared at the bandit leader.
The bandit leader had a short knife stuck in his thigh, with a thin iron chain on the handle.
The end of the chain is in the hand of the thin young man just now.
The young man's hand shook, and the knife flew back into his hand as if it had come alive.
Zhu Bai smiled sinisterly: "Don't move. Otherwise, the next knife will be inserted into someone's left chest."
The bandits dare not move again.
Dust was flying in the distance, and a group of people galloped over on horseback, holding knives and firecrackers, and the bandits were surrounded in a moment.
Only then did the bandits realize that the child in front of them was King Xiang.
Zhu Bai raised his head to them and said, "Tell me where the property you robbed is hidden."
The bandit leader shouted: "Don't say anything."
Zhu Bai frowned.
Then someone came up, kicked the bandit leader over, and stepped on his wounds.
The bandit leader screamed: "I said, I said."
Zhu Bai said: "Yeah, why bother? It's all about talking anyway."
Zhang Yu and a few others escorted the bandit leader for a trip to the mountains, and brought down a large sack full of small jewelry, jade, gold and silver.
Zhu Bai frowned and asked the bandit leader: "How long have you been robbing here?"
The bandit leader said: "It's only half a month."
Zhu Bai: "Impossible! You robbed so much in half a month?"
Bandit leader: "No, there are still some that I robbed when I was a water bandit."
Zhu Bai: "Where is the person you robbed?"
The bandit leader lowered his head: "Kill them all and throw them into the ravine."
Zhu Bai saw that it was getting late, pointed at a few guards and ordered: "Tie them up. The three of you leave a post station to guard. You hurry up and go ahead to notify the government to deal with it. Ask the magistrate to come see me tomorrow. We will
Then hurry up and meet us when the four of you finish your work."
Hu Dafa was very worried and said: "How can three people watch so many people?"
"If anyone resists and runs away, he will be killed without mercy." After Zhu Bai said this, he got on his horse and left.
Hu Dafa looked back and saw the three soldiers pulling out a slender black knife from their waists.
Hu Dafa's heart skipped a beat and he quickly turned around.
Think about it, these guards are all crossbowmen. Even if these bandits are free, let alone being tied up, they can't defeat three guards together.
The one the guards took out just now is called the Yanling Sword. Because the shape of the blade is like the feathers of a wild goose, it was named "Yanling Sword".
Hu Dafa has heard of it and it is very powerful.
The Yanling Knife is different from the previous Yanwing Knife, which is pure Han blood and has no back edge. It is based on the nomadic scimitar of the Yuan Dynasty and combined with the length of the knife used by the Han people. The blade is relatively straight, and the tip has a slightly upward arc shape.
There are multiple edges 15 to 20cm from the tip to the back of the blade, which are generally called reverse edges.
In this way, the person holding the knife can kill people with both backhand and forehand.
It is said that this kind of sword was produced by the Military War Bureau a year ago, and then Lan Yu went on the expedition this time. All soldiers were equipped with this knife. The combat effectiveness was greatly enhanced, and other guards began to follow suit.
Therefore, it was only half a year ago that Yan Ling Dao became popular among the military.
Hu Dafa suddenly realized that this Yan Ling Dao was probably the one Zhu Bai had asked someone to improve, and he quietly took a look at Zhu Bai.
Now Zhu Bai was talking to the old man with a smile.
"Old man, thank you for your reminder and cooperation, so that I can catch all these gangsters without any effort."
The old man said: "It is the King of Xiang who is wise, brave and resourceful, and the old man even took a ride."
Zhu Bai: "I will send you to the next inn, and you will leave on your own."
The old man said: "Thank you very much, King Xiang. I can't thank you enough."
Zhu Bai: "I have something I would like to ask for advice. Please give me your advice."
The old man said: "The King of Xiang has become old and decrepit."
Zhu Bai: "Those people are not escaping because of taxes."
He couldn't figure it out no matter how hard he tried. He hadn't sown the seeds yet, so there was nothing to escape from.
The old man whispered: "Water transportation."
Zhu Bai still didn't understand, but he knew that it was hard for the old man to say too much, so he stopped asking.
They walked for more than an hour, and the people they had just sent out had already caught up.
Zhu Bai asked: "Did you take the officials to see the place where they dumped the body?"
The guard replied: "I brought it."
Zhu Bai: "How many victims are there?"
Guard: "The villain did a rough count and found that there are more than thirty. Because some of them have been eaten by wild animals over time, it is difficult to identify and count them."
Guards, who are used to seeing scenes of blood and flesh, look bad when talking about this, which shows how scary the scene is.
Zhu Bai pursed his lips.
Fugui whispered: "Your Highness, they are avoiding you intentionally. It's normal that you don't know."
Zhu Bai narrowed his eyes: "I have heard about this old man, but I don't believe that the government has no idea at all. They are just lazy, it is better to do less than to do more."
He turned to Zhang Yu and asked: "Where does this place belong to?"
Zhang Yu replied: "We were in Jurong County just now, now we should be in Jintan County."
Zhu Bai sneered: Haha, sure enough.
Jintan County belongs to Zhenjiang Prefecture, but Jurong County falls under the jurisdiction of Yingtian Prefecture.
These bandits robbed Jurong today and went to Jintan tomorrow.
Not only did it cross counties, but it also crossed states, so both sides wanted to push it to the other side.
