As soon as the news came, Shang Chengcheng saw shadows and figures swaying in the woods below the slope. But in the blink of an eye, the lean and thin Qian Laosan emerged from among the bare branches, and happily ran forward to make a military salute to Shang Cheng, trying to squeeze out a serious expression on his face, but before he could speak, his eyes were already narrowed with a smile: "My lord, I caught two jobs." Bring people one by one! With his order, a captain led four border soldiers, and two guys with their shoulders twisted and tied up came over and fell to the ground. The scoundrel-like guide followed, his triangular eyes glowing, and he pursed his lips and looked at the two bandits.

"Old money is hard." Shang Cheng nodded at Qian Laosan, and his admiring gaze swept over several border troops in turn, and finally landed on the two bandits. Both bandits were huddled on the ground. A bandit had his back to him, his half-length blue silk jacket had been cut off by the lining of the mask, half of his skinny ass was bare, and his bloated cotton pants had been ripped off his calves, revealing two skinny legs with few taels of flesh; I don't know if I was frozen or frightened, and I kept shivering and twitching. The bandit facing him was about twenty years old at most, with a childish look between his eyebrows, and the brownish-yellow mustache on his lips was sparse and messy, and his mouth was gagged by a mass of blue-black rags, and his throat was grunting. The bandit's face was so pale that there was hardly a trace of blood, his nose was wide open, and he was spewing white gas one by one, and his terrified gaze kept scanning the faces of the people around him.

Shang Cheng stared at the young bandit with disdain and asked, "Have you been tried?" ”

"Didn't have time to ask." Qian Laosan kicked the bandit with his back to Shang Cheng, made him turn over to face Shang Cheng, and said, "This is the hunter who can fight foxes." Seeing the bandit half-sideways, he rolled his eyelids and looked at himself fiercely and hatefully, and cursed in his mouth: "What the hell are you looking at?" He stepped on the guy's waist with one kick, kicked the bandit's face and immediately wrinkled, spat on his body and said, "When we passed, he was in the downwind, carrying his pants and scratching the dirt and ditches all over the ground, but we arrested him before he even lifted his pants." As he spoke, he stepped on it again.

Shang Cheng gestured, and a border soldier leaned down and tore the rag from the young bandit's mouth. The bandits immediately screamed: "Spare your life, spare your life!" A border soldier next to him stretched out his hand and smashed a knife handle on his mouth, and scolded in a low voice: "Dare to be louder again!" The bandit immediately obediently shut his mouth.

Shang Cheng looked at the young bandit who was bleeding from his nose and mouth, and asked coldly, "How many people are in the stockade?" ”

The bandit with his mouth full of blood muttered inarticulately, and Shang Cheng didn't hear it clearly, so he asked, "I asked you how many people are in the village?" ”

He asked in a tone, and impatience was already in his voice, and before the bandit could answer, two scabbards had already smashed on the bandit's shoulders and arms.

The bandit wailed twice, endured the pain and said, "Yes, yes, there are hundred...... One hundred and ten people. ”

Only then did everyone see clearly, no wonder the bandit spoke vaguely, it turned out that he had broken two front teeth, and he naturally leaked when he spoke.

Shang Cheng and the two sentry commanders glanced at each other silently, and there was some anxiety and worry in their eyes. They had repeatedly estimated the number of bandits in the store, and they all felt that fifty to sixty was a more reasonable number, and at most it was only seventy, so all the troop deployment operations were arranged with reference to this number, who knew that the bandits hiding in the store now had more than one hundred and one manpower, and now the manpower was even more stretched!

Jin Xi said with a gloomy face: "The adult is asking how many men are in the village, don't pull the girls and women in!" ”

"That's what I said, it's a man......," the bandit stammered.

Jin Xi wrinkled his brows and snorted in his nose: "No woman? Who is the female head of the village? ”

"You're talking about Jiuniang? Jiuniang ...... Jiu Niang she is not in the stockade," Seeing that the two border soldiers raised their scabbards to fight again, the bandits shouted anxiously: "My lord, I didn't lie!" I'm not lying! Jiu Niang, she really went back to her hometown to worship the grave! ”

"Your big boss will get married tomorrow, why would she run back to worship the grave at this time?" Kim Hee-yin asked compassionately.

"It's just because Jiu Niang is not there, we, our big bosses, are in a hurry to get married."

"Huh?"

"There are really no women in the stockade! Even if there is a meat ticket, Jiuniang will not let it move......"

Shang Cheng suddenly interjected and asked, "Is Jiu Niang's surname Zhao?" Is it the wasp Zhao Jiuniang of Qingwa Village? ”

The two bandits looked at Shang Cheng with puffed out their eyes and looked at Shang Cheng in disbelief, and the young bandit muttered, "Do you know our second master?" ”

Zhao Shishi came over and kicked him in the face: "I know your mother!" The bandit's face was full of flowers, and he fainted.

Shang Cheng ignored the stone and was ruthless, sucking his lips and looking at the old black pine in a daze, as if thoughtful, he turned his face to look at the bandit without pants for a long time, waved his hand to let people pick the rags in his mouth, and asked, "You are in charge, is it the original breakthrough?" ”

The bandit laughed and said, "Since you know everything, what else do you ask?" ”

From Shang Cheng's words to drink the surname of the female bandit leader, Jin Xiqian Laosan and other border soldiers were already quite surprised, and suddenly listened to him ask the words "through the sky" in a trance, several border soldiers who remembered this incident were shocked, and then heard the bandits admit their deeds, the big leader of the bandits in Dujiazhai had died in the hands of the left army a year ago, and the head had also spread throughout the twenty-nine counties of Yanshan three prefectures, and they were so frightened that they couldn't speak for a while.

Although Jin Xi is only a border army sentry commander and an officer slightly older than Sesame, after all, he has a lot of age and experience, and he has already thought clearly about the front and end of this matter. As long as the news that he is still alive through the sky leaks out of the slightest rumor, the left army will be shaken like a landslide and the ground cracks in an instant! Even with the Wei Mansion, the Admiral's Mansion and even the Wei Mu Mansion can't get out of it, I don't know how many people will be punished by the imperial court for this...... And the soldiers of the border army in front of him, even with Shang Cheng, will have countless serious hidden dangers. He stepped forward and stood beside Shang Cheng and whispered, "My lord, beware! Don't ask any more! If this matter is exposed, you, me, and Sun Whistle will all cause a big disaster! ”

Shang Cheng ignored his "advice" and only asked the bandit: "It seems that you are also the 'old brother' of Qingwa Village." One by one, I only ask you, what is the situation in Dujiazhai now? How many people are in the stockade? Where did they come from? Are they old subordinates from the past days, or are they newly attached......" Before he could finish his sentence, the bandit had already sneered and turned his gaze to the side. Shang Cheng smiled contemptuously and said, "It's okay if you don't say it." I wasn't going to hear you tell me this. Pointing at the fainting young bandit, he ordered, "Wake him up." ”

A border soldier took the water hyacinth, and when he looked for the young bandit, he sprinkled a fine light on his face, threw the gourd and carried the handle of the collar of the jacket is a few slaps. Even the cold water brought pain to the skin, and the bandit came to his senses at that time.

Shang Cheng looked down at him and asked what he had just said again.

The young bandit was just about to speak, but the old bandit was already shouting next to him: "Don't say it! Don't tell him! You have sworn a poisonous oath in front of the mountain god Bodhisattva, and betraying your brother will be thundered by five thunderstorms from the sky......" The two border soldiers held him down, grabbed the rags and gagged him again. Shang Cheng looked at the young bandit's face a little hesitant and hesitated, and shouted softly, "Stone." Zhao Shishi nodded in response, turned around and went to the back of the line, and turned back with a mountain axe in his hand for a moment. The people on the left looked at the mountain axe, which was more than a foot long, and they didn't know what he was doing with this military mountain axe, which was used to open doors and smash locks. The stone went straight to the old bandit, and with an expressionless face, he ordered the two border soldiers to hold down his hands and feet, turn the mountain axe in his hand in a different direction, and put the blade on the top and back down, raised it and swung it down, and smashed it on the old bandit's calf one by one, and the calf had collapsed from the middle......

The old bandit had a cloth in his mouth, his hands and feet were also tied and pressed, he couldn't move and dodge at all, and he was knocked off a leg, but he was still awake, and his eyes were so painful that his facial features shifted his position, and his body and torso were like a live fish that had just been caught......

Most of the border soldiers present had been on the battlefield and experienced bloodshed, but when they saw the scene in front of them, their faces were still pale, and their hearts were throbbing.

Shang Cheng raised his chin towards the young bandit and said lightly, "Say it." ”

"I say, I say! I'll say everything! The young bandit was already frightened by Zhao Shishi's ruthlessness, where did he dare to hide it at this time, and when he saw Shang Cheng asking him, he immediately poured beans into a bamboo bucket and told everything he knew. But he joined the gang late, and he only did some errands and chores among the bandits, and he almost didn't know the secrets in the village. “…… The gang came six days ago to join the gang, and they gave a lot of money to the cottage, and the big boss ...... Break through the genius and agree to let them in. I heard that they robbed a caravan in Dun'an County last month, captured a few meat tickets, and killed a lot of people. Big...... The daughter-in-law who broke through the sky was also brought by them, and it is said that she is still a young lady from a big official family in the capital. ……”

As soon as Shang Cheng heard it, he knew that the bandits who came to Dujiadian a few days ago were the bandits who robbed the caravan in Dun'an County and robbed the second son of Cheng Qiao's family before he passed the door. He originally wanted to go to Dun'an to suppress the bandits, but he didn't expect to go around in a big circle, and this group of bandits still ran to the same place as himself. He gritted his teeth and smiled silently in his heart. This seems to be a true response to the old saying, one by one, not enemies do not get together!

“…… Tomorrow is the day to marry a daughter-in-law, and the village will start to be lively tonight, so the three leaders are the leaders of the new group of people who let me come out and call the brothers on the various dark piles, and the cold day has just fallen, and we ...... The bandits must have thought you wouldn't come out. I didn't know that I was caught by you as soon as I ran to the first dark pile. ”

Shang Cheng listened to him and pondered in his heart, and when he heard that this young bandit had just come out of Dujiadian, he asked casually, "The You family's horse team hasn't arrived yet?" ”

"The horse team that came today is from the You family? I don't know. However, I heard from the three masters and people that after the horse team of the You family and the horse team of the Lu family were together, they would enter the mountain one by one. ”

Sun Zhongshan hasn't arrived yet?!

Shang Cheng was stunned by this news, and he and Jin Xi looked at each other for a long time before they reacted, and immediately ordered in a stack to immediately reorganize the team and set off immediately. As for the Lu family's meat ticket, he didn't have time to think about how many more good people would suffer if such a murderous and cunning bandit as he crossed the sky lived in the world for a day!

Qian Laosan pointed to the two bandits and asked, "What about these two people?" ”

"Chopped." Shang Cheng said without looking back.

The young bandit never dreamed that he would end up like this, he was so trembling that he collapsed on the ground like chaff, his body was strangely, the word "spare his life" just popped out of his mouth, his neck was cold, and the bleak scene in front of him suddenly flashed like a whirlwind, followed by an endless dull darkness......
