The miserable cry at the bottom of the mountain was obviously a man's voice, Qin Fei stood on the shore wet, his face changed slightly, and he greeted loudly: "Ji Tongzhi guards the mountainside, Zhou Liyuan will go down with me to take a look." ”

The two of them rushed down the mountain one after the other, their steps were extremely fast, and they had reached the foot of the mountain after a meal. The cavalry stationed at the foot of the mountain was surrounding a group of people, and their swords were unsheathed and formed a circular encirclement, surrounding more than twenty people. Seeing Qin Fei and Zhou Liyuan running down quickly, the cavalry captain led by him rode his horse to respond.

He may have the intention of showing off his riding skills, and when he arrived in front of the two, he pulled the reins, and the war horse stood tall, and the captain jumped off the horse freely, pointed to the crowd and said, "Two adults, it's a little funny to say. We were monitoring at the foot of Xiyun Mountain, and we actually encountered a group of bandits who cut the path. bumped into it head-on, and there was a dumbfounded man among them, stupidly talking about the rivers and lakes, what is this mountain I opened, and this tree was planted by me...... My brother was impatient and shot him with an arrow. ”

"Just a bunch of path-cutting thieves?" Qin Fei asked in surprise.

The captain nodded very affirmatively: "They are in rags, and it seems that the poor people around them who can't live can live are left in the grass." The swords in his hands were rusty, and there were people with hoes, not even bandits. ”

Seeing that Qin Fei didn't make a sound, the captain took two steps closer and whispered: "My lord, although there are not many people in this group, we have a heavy responsibility, and we can't send them to the official mansion with no manpower." In accordance with the conventions of the army...... There are usually two ways to catch such a thief. I don't know which one the adults agree with? ”

Qin Fei frowned and asked rhetorically, "I really don't know what two rules exist in the army. ”

The captain smiled even more, but lowered his voice: "First, kill all these people, cut off their heads, and report to the army as anti-thieves." The imperial court has long had a military order, if someone rebels, kill the first rank, you can get ten taels of silver. There were more than 20 people in front of him, and that was more than 200 taels of silver with white flowers. ”

"And what about the second one?" Qin Fei said lightly.

"The second is much simpler. Shut them up, and ordered a group of men to follow the leader to the place where they were entrenched to get the money. Don't look at these robbers, my lord, dressed in tatters. Usually the leader has some gold and silver in his hand, which must be worth more than these twenty heads. The captain said with a smile: "As for which method to use, it is up to you to decide which method to use." ”

Zhou Liyuan was a little embarrassed in his heart, and peeked at Qin Fei, but saw that Qin Fei's face was calm and there was nothing unusual. For Zhou Liyuan, it was difficult for him to accept such an approach in the army. These people are indeed guilty of robbing the road. However, what kind of crime should be judged according to what kind of rules. According to the captain, the army extorts bandits, and the army is no different from bandits. If you kill their heads and punish them as thieves, you will be abusing your public power. These are the things that the Prosecutor's Office is in charge of......

"I don't think I can use your two methods." Qin Fei said lightly: "Although there are hot springs in Xiyun Mountain, there are very few residents around, and the bandits will not choose such a place to set up camp. On the one hand, they will not be able to develop manpower, and on the other hand, they will not be able to solve the procurement of daily necessities due to the small number of households. In my opinion, these robbers, perhaps the villagers who live nearby, have taken this road because of the flood in the summer and the drought in the winter. ”

"I didn't hear what you said just now. If there is a next time...... Please don't forget that my identity is the Governor of the Prosecutor's Office. You don't want to go to the Prosecutor's Office for tea, do you? Qin Fei said coldly.

The captain laughed dryly with him, he wanted to make a small fortune, but he didn't expect to run into Qin Fei, a hard stinky stone, and he didn't understand the flexibility at all. In the army, not to mention killing some thieves, it is not without merit to kill good people. At that time, there were repeated frictions between the Jiangnan camp and the Wu army, and when it was reported to the imperial court, it was said that it was a great victory, but only more than ten Wu soldiers were killed in total, and they could not be handed over to the first rank. At that time, the commander of the Jiangnan battalion turned a blind eye and indulged his subordinates to kill two villages of fishermen by the river, regardless of whether he was a fisherman from Wu State or a fisherman from Chu State, and handed it over as the head of the Wu army.

Some survivors in the fishing village wanted to go to the eastern capital to file a complaint, but the Jiangnan camp arranged a lot of manpower along the way, and also specially found some gangs in the eastern capital, telling them to arrest and dispose of them at will if they came to complain to the emperor. As a result, some of the fishermen girls of the year also became the kiln sisters in the brothel of the Eastern Capital because they went to sue the royal court, and they will never be able to turn over!

These words, the captain didn't dare to say any more, he watched Qin Fei walk towards those bandits, and sighed secretly, hundreds of taels of silver were gone......

More than 20 people were surrounded by hundreds of cavalry, and the color of horror was overflowing. The messy weapons in their hands had already been thrown on the ground, and they didn't dare to touch them. I am afraid that those officers and soldiers will misunderstand and fire arrows in unison, and they will die without a place to bury.

Seeing a young officer walking over, he was wearing a black uniform, and in the winter, his whole body was drenched with water, which was really amazing, wasn't he afraid of being frostbitten to the cold? The bandits also knew that there were hot springs in the mountains, but they had never heard of jumping off the hot springs with their clothes and shoes on.

Qin Fei walked over slowly, his real strength was drumming, the clothes on his body were gradually dried, and in winter, the heat formed by water formed a white mist around him, which dissipated.

Before he could speak, the bandits had already kowtowed: "Immortals...... The gods spare their lives......"

"Why do you call me a fairy?" Qin Fei asked in surprise.

"The Great Immortal Dragon walks in a tiger step, surrounded by clouds and mist...... The little one dared to guess if Daxian was a narcissus in a hot spring......" There were two crisp sounds, and the thief who spoke slapped himself twice, and then said with a smile: "Daxian is the hot spring water dragon king." ”

"It's just a bunch of ignorant bandits." Qin Fei was a little funny, these people were residents of the mountains, no one had ever been out of the mountains in their lives, and they had never even seen anyone with cultivation.

"Can't live anymore? Out of the cut path? Qin Fei asked.

The man kneeling in front of him said in a loud voice: "The Great Immortal is angry. In fact, our life is not unbearable, poor is poor, but relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, some game, and grow some miscellaneous grains, we can always survive. The difficulty is that in our village, it has been very strange over the years, and there are more boys than girls in all births. In addition, it is difficult for the children of poor families to feed, so some food is used, of course, it is given to the son first...... As a result, when we got older, we found out that eight out of ten men could not marry a wife......"

"A few days ago, an immortal passed by our village and gave us some pointers. He pinched his fingers and said that in a few days, there would be a convoy with dozens of young and beautiful yellow flower girls. The fairy said, since passing by is fate, to be able to snatch home as a wife, but also the fate of the previous life, so that we have been hanging around under Xiyun Mountain for the past few days, and when we meet a convoy with girls, we will pretend to be bandits, and ......rob it."

"Where are so many immortals?" Zhou Liyuan really couldn't stand the ignorance of these vulgar people in the mountains and wilderness.

"Of course he is a god...... With a finger, a candle more than a foot away can start a fire......," the man muttered.

Qin Fei's face changed suddenly, and he and Zhou Liyuan said in unison: "Oops! ”

Before the captain and the bandits could react to what was going on, they saw the two of them rushing towards the mountain in a puff of smoke. There is a saying that it is easy to go down the mountain and difficult to go up, even if both of them are masters, the rugged mountain road is by no means easy to walk...... It took a quick meal to get down the mountain, and now it takes a little delay to go up the mountain......

Ji Feng smiled and lay on the stone that Zhou Liyuan had just warmed, listening to the sound of Suo Suo getting dressed on the hot spring in the distance, thinking that after a while, he would be able to jump into the warm spring water and take a good bath. Don't mention the fun in your heart! The old man was crazy about his youth, and together with Qin Fei and others, he teased those people of Wu who were pretending to be mysterious, as if he was also a few years younger......

Ji Feng was thinking about it, suddenly opened his eyes, Huo Ran sat up from the stone, waved his big hand, and shouted: "Patrol the mountain!" ”

The masters of the Executive Division of the Prosecutor's Office reacted extremely quickly, and as soon as Monsoon gave the order, the ten people had already run out separately, and they were just within the field of vision.

Ji Feng's expression was solemn, although his cultivation was very low, but he looked like a master, standing on the boulder, he took out a thing that looked like a small axe in his right hand at some point.

Jia Jian didn't know what was going on, trotted to Monsoon's side, and asked boldly, "What's wrong?" ”

"Enemy attack!" Monsoon said coldly.

Jia Jian said with a smile: "Ji Tongzhi, don't scare people, everyone knows how low your cultivation is." I didn't see half a human hair, so why do you say that an enemy is coming? ”

"There are many smells on the mountain, there are the smell of trees, the smell of hot spring water, the smell of earth......" Ji Feng sniffled: "I have been in Jinshi Division for so many years, and no smell can be hidden from me." There is a smell of medicine wafting towards the mountain, very strange! I can't smell any herbs...... Then there is only one possibility! It was a medicine I hadn't seen before. Do you think that would be a good medicine? ”

Jia Jian's little face immediately turned into a bitter face, he raised his sleeves to block his mouth and nose, and asked repeatedly, "The antidote...... Is there an antidote? ”

Monsoon ignored him and sniffed lightly, as if he was discerning what kind of medicinal herbs the weak and unsmelling breath was. After a moment, Monsoon shouted, "Snake Pill! ”

All the people in the Prosecutor's Office immediately took out a small pill from their pockets. Entrance. Ji Feng took out a bottle of medicine from his arms, handed it to Jia Jian without looking back, and instructed: "For your people, each person should put one in his mouth and don't eat it." ”

"Oh, oh, oh......" Jia Jian didn't dare to let go of his nose, grabbed the bottle, couldn't wait to open it, and took one to himself first, and then ran towards his subordinates and the princess.

The mountain was full of mud, and the snakes sleeping in the caves seemed to be awakened from hibernation by some unknown force and swam out one after another. Some snakes are almost the thickness of a bowl, and some snakes are even thicker than their fingers, but still no one dares to underestimate these snakes.

This is not a poison, it is a medicine mist that can awaken hibernating vipers. The sound of snakes swimming everywhere was everywhere, and their target was the place where the Seven Princesses were.

None of the people who can enter the Prosecutor's Hall are mediocre hands, and they are not afraid of fighting people. But with snakes, it's very troublesome. In particular, you never know if the next snake will suddenly come out of under your feet and take a bite. Snake pills, which can be used to fight snake venom. Even if you are bitten by a snake, you will not be too badly injured.

Originally, it was safe to guard against the bottom of the mountain, but now, who knows if there are snakes on the top of the mountain? Due to the warmth of the hot springs, more than a dozen snakes, large and small, have swam out. The maids were afraid of rats, but not very afraid of snakes, and brandished their swords and cut the dozen or so snakes into dozens of pieces.

On the mountainside, three people stood side by side, the first one on the left, holding a strong bow. His bow is really rare, the whole bow is made of fine iron, the bowstring is tied together with several ox tendons, and the sharp arrow on the bowstring is four feet long, which is already equal to a long sword. The person who holds the bow does not squint one eye like an ordinary archer. He doesn't have any eyes to squint at all...... A man with a strong bow turned out to be a blind man!

Can a blind man be a sharpshooter? Of all the blind men in the world, there is only one archer. He was a cup, and from the day he was born, he was blind. However, God is not too bad for him. Although he was not given a pair of eyes, he was given the talent to meditate. The 'Tianmu Divine Bow' is him-Yan Ke.

Yan Qi's talent is very strange, he is a cultivator, but he is not very good at the telekinetic attacks of other cultivators. The greatest power of his telekinesis lies in locking on to the target he wants to shoot. As he could see with his own eyes, he never missed. Someone once tried to assassinate the person he wanted to protect, but after failing, he frantically fled into the bustling crowd, trying to escape Yan Kun's pursuit with the help of the cover of the crowd. But he still miscalculated in the end! Yan Kun's divine bow and arrow, from thousands of people, an arrow pierced his head, and he couldn't die anymore!

There was a little chaos on the mountain, and although the masters who had snake pills were not too afraid of snakes, snakes were very disgusting animals after all. There are snakes running around the mountains and fields, and it seems that they can't finish killing. The severed snake was still wriggling on the ground and struggling for a while before finally dying, with snake blood everywhere and swords everywhere......
