Chapter 14: Encountering Bandits on the Road
"Old men and ladies in the carriage, don't you need this king to invite you down? Those who know each other will leave their belongings and spare you from death! "The shouting from the front was extremely arrogant, thinking that they should have a lot of manpower, otherwise they would not dare to intercept the convoy of thirty or forty people.

"I don't know if I'm alive or dead," Murong Chonghao on the carriage lifted the curtain and asked with a sneer, "Cheng Yan, where is this place?"
"Master, this place is called Black Wind Ridge, and it still belongs to the boundaries of the Three Fox Prefecture." The man in the power suit on the horse replied.
"There are still such grass robbers in the realm of this king," Murong Chonghao frowned in displeasure, and at a cursory glance, there were fifty or sixty people, and he didn't say a word: "Take them all down." ”
"Yes!"
At the sound of an order, the twenty guards who accompanied him rushed out like arrows off the string, not to mention the speed, and the coordination of the knife in hand was moderate, which was obviously not comparable to these half-way monks.
The king of the mountain was stunned, why did he just say a line, and this person started fighting? Seeing his own men and horses retreating, the king of the mountain roared angrily: "Rush! There are many of us, don't be afraid! ”
For a while, there were sonorous voices and wails all over the field, although it did not flow into a river of blood, but there were still many casualties. Yi Shui looked cautiously at the window, his little heart fluttered, and for the first time, he faced the scene of slashing, and even someone died! Terrible! This is an era of murder and innocence?!
It didn't take long for a group of thieves to be packed up, all the living ones were bundled, and the king of the mountain was escorted to the prince's carriage.
"Get on your knees." Cheng Yan kicked him in the knee.
“…… Not! The king of the mountain gasped and knelt on the ground, and said, "Lao Tzu kicked the iron plate today, and he also admitted it!"
Cheng Yan raised his leg to his chest again, kicking him straight to make people vomit blood, "Do you know who this master is in front of you?" Dare to call yourself Lao Tzu? ”
The king of the mountain swallowed the blood foam and hummed and lay on the ground without saying a word, it seemed that he was also a little bullish, Cheng Yan was afraid that the prince would be impatient, so he went to the side and asked again. This time, I was afraid of death, and the two trembled, and I told everything I knew.
It turns out that there have always been small thieves in this Black Wind Ridge, occasionally going down the mountain to ambush some squads of passing merchants, only robbing money and not hurting people, although there are also people who report to the official but the matter is not big. At that time, the king was not the current one, and now the king of the mountain was new half a year ago, not only did he unite with the second master to kill the previous king in a short time, but also threatened them, and if they disobeyed, they were arrested and sent to the official.
changed to a big king, often led people down to block the road and rob money, and the brothers accepted his dispatch after eating and drinking, and then their little thief's den also had a name, called Black Wind Village. Because there were more robberies and alarmed the government, the king of the mountain proposed to collect a few more brothers, so the robbery was not enough, and the robbery was also carried out, and some hooligans and scoundrels in the vicinity came to visit, and the Black Wind Village developed from about thirty to seventy.
"So there are still a dozen people on the mountain?" Cheng Yan asked with his hands on his chest.
The man nodded tremblingly: "The second master is in the stockade, and there are several brothers who were injured yesterday and a few girls who were robbed...... A few masters, the younger ones are also forced by life......"
"You only had one vote yesterday, and you are obviously not greedy enough." Otherwise, he would not be unlucky to run into them, Cheng Yan shook his head, and said to Murong Chonghao: "Master, my subordinates will take people up the mountain to take them down, right?"
Murong Chonghao looked at the sky, after this delay, he couldn't catch up with the scheduled accommodation point, and said with a smile: "Let's all go up the mountain, rest there tonight, and this king will also see how this thief's nest is developing."
Cheng Yan had been following him for a long time, and as soon as he heard this, he knew that someone was going to be unlucky. Come to think of it, it's understandable that there was a small fight before, but now that the king robs every day, there are a lot of people, and the nearby magistrates are all eating dry rice? No one reported it, no wonder the master was displeased.
The group went up the mountain mightily, the mountain was not very high, and it was crooked, and it arrived at the gate of the Black Wind Village. The two minions guarding the gate froze when they saw them, thinking that there would be another victory for the king, but something was wrong!
A clever pull, the companion hurriedly ran into the stockade. "Two masters! Two masters! Something's wrong! ”
"Oh no! The king has been arrested! ”
The two of them shouted all the way, panicked to the extreme, and if they were caught, they would be sent to the government to eat in prison!
"None of them are allowed to run! Anyone who tries to escape will be killed! Cheng Yan at the door ordered ten people to chase after him, be sure to catch them all, don't let them slip away from the back mountain.
With such a roar, the stockade fell silent. There were only about a dozen people, and there were injuries, and the king was all subdued, and they were all panicked, and they didn't have the slightest idea of resisting, and they had no choice but to surrender. The second boss is a big fat man, his narrow eyes are full of calculations, and at this moment he has withered in the face of absolute force and is obediently tied up.
"This is the second thief?" Murong Chonghao circled around the second master, glanced at Yi Shuiyao, and said with disgust: "Maybe you came out of the same pig's nest." ”
Yi Shui was furious: "I seem to be a human being!" And yet you're just a stupid stallion! ”
The two snorted coldly and quarreled again, making people who had never seen it stunned, An Hongruo couldn't cry or laugh, she never knew that the imposing prince had such a ...... The childish side......
Full of thieves who locked up two rooms, Cheng Yan assigned a person to go down the mountain to inform the government that he would come to detain him early tomorrow morning. The rest of the people were busy cleaning the house for the master to rest, and in the twilight, dinner was also prepared in an orderly manner.
After the people who were robbed up the mountain were rescued, they were naturally very grateful, and there was a girl in the family, with good features in lake blue clothes, and she looked beautiful and lovely. Bowed to Cheng Yan Yingying, raised her head and tears fell down, "Childe's great grace, the little woman is toothless and unforgettable...... Woowoo woo ......"
"Girl, don't be like this," Cheng Yan frowned, "My master happened to be passing by, and there is absolutely no reason to stand idly by, so the girl should go home quickly." ”
The woman knelt on the ground and couldn't get up, crying: "The little girl's family was all killed by these thieves, and she has long been homeless......
"This ......" Cheng Yan's brows furrowed even more, "The official messenger is here tomorrow, and he will definitely arrange a place for you to go." ”
The woman bit her lower lip lightly, with tears in the corners of her eyes, she hesitated: "The little girl sees that the son and his party are dressed extraordinarily, can you accept the little girl, and is willing to be a slave and a maid to repay the great favor!"
"No, I can't. Girl, let's find another place tomorrow, and the government will send you a thorn. Cheng Yan directly refused, the master's status is noble, how can he accept a woman of unknown origin as a maidservant. Sent things away.
During dinner, Yi Shuiyao, An Hongruo, and Murong Chonghao ate at the same table, which is still a treatment that the original owner has never enjoyed.
“…… Bah...... Let's ......."
The quiet table only hears easy water to chew and chew, and the food is fragrant. Murong Chonghao was born in the royal family, learned the rules since he was a child, and developed the habit of eating without saying a word, of course, the meal is also light and silent, although An Hongruo was born in a small family, but he usually speaks softly, and he chews slowly when he eats.
"Fat pig, can you be quiet?" Murong Chonghao raised his eyebrows and knocked on the porcelain plate with chopsticks.
"What?" Yi Shuiyao looked confused.
It's this expression again......
Murong Chonghao saw her stupid little round face and his hands were about to move, but this time he finally didn't control it, reached out and pinched her cheek, fiercely.
"Hmm! Fruit rub (I rub)! "This deep well ice, suddenly pinching her face? It still hurts a lot! Yi Shui slapped his hand away and was furious: "If you want to fight, just say it!" I'll stick chopsticks in your nostrils right away! ”
Looking at her blushing face, Murong Chonghao was in a good mood and said, "This king allows you to eat at the same table, you should also abide by the etiquette of eating, what kind of decency is it to eat so rudely." ”
Under the table, the right hand, the thumb caresses the index finger, as if still reminiscing about the soft and smooth touch just now, he decided! If you're unhappy in the future, teach her a lesson!
What kind of people is this? Yi Shuiyao raised his middle finger, "Fat squid!" ”
Say she's rude? One day when you eat noodles to show him, the snoring and sucking noodles, and occasionally the soup splashes, will definitely anger him!
