Under Zhang Rui's roar, Du Mu came to Zhang Rui's side before half a cup of tea.

At this time, Zhang Rui was holding steamed buns in the outer hall and soaking them in water to feed the woman little by little, while the other women were eating with their hands clasped steamed buns.

When Zhang Rui saw Du Mu's arrival, he just glanced at him and continued his work. Then he said coldly

"What's going on?"

When Du Mu looked at these women, he didn't understand, but he didn't expect Zhang Rui to do such a big fire for these women. Although I can't bear it, it's more just sympathy.

"This is the woman who was caught by several other masters at the bottom of the mountain, and after they played a few times, they were thrown into the dungeon** for the rest of the bandits to have fun."

"Fun? Other? All bandits? ”

"Mainly old bandits, new bandits who enter the mountains need to be allowed to be rewarded in order to play. So how many people have played it is not known. Du Mu said everything he knew.

"Have you played it before?" Zhang Rui's voice was calm, and he couldn't hear the emotions he encountered.

"Sixth brother, you know, my mind is on my dead wife. Before taking revenge, she will never do anything to be sorry for her. When Du Mu heard Zhang Rui's words, he hurriedly argued

"Very good, has Liu Muxiu touched them?" Zhang Rui still said in a very calm voice, and he couldn't hear any ripples of emotion, but this voice made Du Mu feel a chill from the heart.

"As far as I know, the three masters... Well, Liu Muxiu has a wife in the inner courtyard. He has always had a good relationship with his wife, and he probably hasn't touched them. Du Mu continued to talk about what he knew.

"Got it, come with me!"

As he spoke, Zhang Rui got up, only to see that he had also finished feeding the steamed buns in his hand. The woman he was feeding opened her eyes and looked at him. Then there was a feeble shut.

Zhang Rui instructed Li Sigou beside him to try not to disturb their rest. From now on, give them more hot water to drink, and they can't give them any more food. At the same time, I had to find a few clean clothes, and go to the inner courtyard to bring Liu Muxiu's wife and female dependents over to help them change.

After explaining, Zhang Rui took Du Mu to the Juyi Hall with a cold face.

All the way, the two did not say a word. Although someone greeted Zhang Rui on the road, Zhang Rui rarely did not respond until he arrived at the Juyi Hall.

In the Hall of Justice. Although the bandits had strips of cloth tied to their hands, they watched Liu Muxiu walking around there, and actually squatted there and chatted with peace of mind. Some people laughed happily when they talked about the excitement, not worried about their safety at all.

"Sixth brother..."

……

The bandit team and others in the Juyi Hall greeted Zhang Rui when they saw him coming.

I saw Zhang Rui's face cold, and he didn't respond to them. So, some of the bandits who defected asked what was going on with Du Mu, who was following Zhang Rui. Du Mu told them what he had seen.

Liu Shi and the others didn't understand why Zhang Rui came back after following Li Sigou and doing so. So I couldn't help but ask again

"Sixth brother, what's wrong?"

Zhang Rui looked at the group of bandits coldly, and said to Liu Shishi and the others: "Gather the brothers and kill them all." Tell the brethren not to die until everyone has finished cutting down. ”

Zhang Rui's words made the bandits who were still squatting there laughing unable to react at once, and Lin Chengzi and others hurriedly shouted:

"Zhang Liu, you can't be untrustworthy. You said you could spare us people. ”

Liu Muxiu, who was walking back and forth there, saw such a scene, and hurriedly went over to Zhang Rui and said, "Sixth brother, it's not good. As long as they disarm and surrender, you let them go. ”

"Did I say I had to let them go? And none of them are human. It can only be said that it is livestock. I have no mercy on livestock. Zhang Rui just looked at them and said with a cold face

After listening to Zhang Rui's words, the bandits were immediately uneasy! A begging for mercy. Angry scolding. In this regard, Zhang Ruidu ignored it and asked Liu Shishi and them to take them all out for execution. At the same time, the bandits who defected were also executed together, and if they dared not follow the execution, they would not be let go.

When Liu Shishi and others forcibly dragged such bandits out, Liu Muxiu wanted to go over and stop them. But after only two steps, a steel knife reached his neck.

The cold sensation from his neck stopped him, and he looked back. I saw Zhang Rui holding a steel knife in his hand at the moment and said coldly: "Follow me or die?" ”

Liu Muxiu looked at this look. He had no doubt that as long as he dared to raise any objections, Zhang Rui's knife would be dragged down at his neck without hesitation. So, Liu Muxiu spit out a few words with difficulty: "I'll follow you." ”

"Good, but I want you to know if you dare to betray me. I'll make your life worse than death. I do what I say. Liu Muxiu's answer made Zhang Rui feel a little better, but Zhang Rui also warned him when he withdrew the knife.

"Yes, yes, I will never dare to betray the sixth brother." Liu Muxiu hurriedly saluted and said

"You're a smart person, just understand."

At this time, only two people were left standing in the Gathering Hall.

"Tell me, how much money and food are left here." Zhang Rui asked directly and simply

"The master of the mountain... Well, the bandits are in charge, and the silver they have stolen will be divided that night. That is, each takes his own collection and leaves only a small amount of silver in the cottage for backup each time. Liu Muxiu continued Zhang Rui's words

"This money is mostly used to buy wine and meat, weapons, medicinal herbs and other expenses, and now the entire cottage only has 6,000 taels of silver. Rice and grain are all obtained by the bandits who take people to various villages to go down to get grain, and there are still 30 stones of rice, 2 stones of yellow millet and 3 stones of soybeans in the cottage. Twenty sheep, thirty-two chickens, eighteen ducks, twelve oxen, and twenty-one pigs..."

"How many weapons are there? What's there. Zhang Rui then asked

There are still dozens of bandits, and Zhang Rui must not consider the issues of safety and combat effectiveness. At present, the cost of silver is not very large, after all, in a poor and remote place, as long as you can eat and drink enough, it is good. Even if you are given money, there is no place to spend it.

"Because the number of people who have gone up the mountain has increased recently, a lot of weapons have been divided. At present, there are 20 steel swords, 50 shields, 10 bows, 15 bundles of arrows, and 20 bundles in the armory. It's the big boss... Forehead... Zhou Tongtie was ready to build an archery team for purchase. Liu Muxiu said eloquently

"Where did you get all these bows and arrows?" Zhang Rui asked with some confusion

"These are all purchased from the quartermaster of the Green Battalion, and some of the Green Battalion Commanders, Qian Zong and others are also available." Liu Muxiu explained

"Did you buy it all?"

"Yes, it's me for the vast majority of the time... belong to the purchase. ”

"That's all there is left in the armory room?" Zhang Rui asked again

"No, fifty steel knives will arrive in three days." Liu Muxiu said without any concealment

"Very well, next time take me to meet those who sell weapons."

"Yes, Chief." Liu Muxiu returned humbly.
