Chu Nan and the others came out of Xianyang, and there were wide and straight official roads everywhere along the way, and the speed was extremely fast, which could be called unimpeded, and it only took one day to reach Hangu Pass, and the road from Hangu Pass gradually became narrow, and it was no longer a flat road but muddy, and the farther away from Hangu Pass, the more so, and their speed also slowed down.

Since the Qin annihilation of the Six Kingdoms, there is no comparison between the outside of the Hangu Pass and the inside of the Pass, on the contrary, it is deserted, and the rampant beasts are the truest portrayal of the Pass, and there are places where there are no villages even within a radius of 100 miles, even if you can occasionally see some villages, most of them are dilapidated, the bones are exposed to the ground, how to talk about burial, most of the villages are some old, weak, sick and disabled, the strong laborers have long died in the conquest of the Qin State and the Six Kingdoms, the fields are uncultivated, and the people are not hungry.

Sun Gan was originally a Wei person, generation of farmers, since the Wei State was destroyed by the Qin State has been wandering around, in this chaotic era there is no legal system, bad people are far more comfortable than good people, since a certain time Sun Gan and others robbed the passing pedestrians to taste the sweetness, his courage gradually increased, after more and more robbery, occupy the familiarity with the nearby villages, become the bandits in this vicinity, at the beginning of the period there were also some soldiers here to exterminate them, but they fled deeper into the mountains and forests when they got the news, those soldiers had to return in vain, After they left, they started to rob homes and houses again, and even the local government couldn't help them.

These days are even more unscrupulous, that is, the county guards of Dongjun have been killed by thieves, and where can anyone control them.

Drinking wine, eating meat, and playing with women every day, this kind of day is not changed for an emperor.

Sun Gan, who was standing in the distance, looked at the people sitting around him, and there were torches dotted around him.

"The boss seems to have caught a big fat sheep this time, and the brothers can't remember how long it has been since they had eaten meat."

One of the thieves whispered in his ear, but his eyes couldn't help but glance at the ladies in the crowd, picking his prey.

These people were carrying large bags and small bags, they were originally going to flee to Dongjun, and after days of running and trying their best on the road, they saw that they were about to enter Dongjun but how could they think that they would fall short at this last moment.

Sun Gan looked at these people below, his eyes were full of anger, but he couldn't help but be a little happy, these people's eyes revealed fear, making him feel that he was superior, he used to be like this, and even would be one of them.

Of course, bandits also have a certain danger, not to mention facing the suppression of the official army, they need a pair of keen eyes, for those rich people generally have guards around them, for such people they must not dare to touch, of course, these people in front of them will not be included.

One of the old men came out under the force of everyone, and old age means that there is a lot of seniority and a certain prestige among this group of people.

"This king is a little filial piety from our people, and I hope the king will let us go."

The old man trembled and walked up to Sun Gan and took out a bag of silver coins.

"When did I, a thief on the mountain, become a king?"

Sun Gan took the bag of silver money and smiled suddenly, do you want to buy your life with this little money? As he spoke, he threw the money on the ground, and the rustling of silver poured out, and his accomplices behind him laughed, and the little flames behind him drifted through the dense forest like ghostly fires.

Sun Gan kicked the old man to the ground and said loudly.

"It's still the same as before, the men are killed, and the women are taken away."

The companion behind him let out a wolf-like howl, laughed and rushed into the crowd, the crowd suddenly became chaotic, the cry of the child, the sobbing of the woman converged, accompanied by the roar of the man, but these people were the opponents of the bandit with a long knife in their hands, and they were cut to the ground in an instant.

However, the sound of thunder, from far and near, but the sky is clear, there are countless stars in the sky, where there is a shadow of rain, not thunder, the sound is more like the sound of horses' hooves, countless smoke and dust from the forest.

A black steed stepped out of the smoke and dust, dressed in red armor and a halberd glowing in the moonlight.

Sun Gan is actually not a stranger to these people, whether it is the cavalry of Wei or Qin, he has seen it many times, but he has never seen such a knight, the whole body of the cavalry is covered with pieces of scale armor and impermeable, even the war horses under the seat are also wearing armor, and there are faint gold stripes around the edge of the armor, like a demon from hell.

Behind the cavalryman, countless knights in the same attire were following closely.

When the halberd in the hands of the first knight severed the head of a bandit, the life of the bandit no longer belonged to them.

Don't look at the usual fierce appearance of these bandits, but that is for those unarmed people, who dare to resist when looking at these heavily armed cavalry, the defense line in their hearts has all collapsed, and even the blades in their hands are not stable, and now they only have to flee for their lives.

When Sun Gan reacted, a halberd flew straight towards his chest, his feet were motionless as if they were filled with lead, and he had to watch as the halberd penetrated his chest, bringing out countless blood, and the huge force finally nailed him into the stake behind him.

In Sun Gan's last moments, a trace of remorse flashed in his mind.

In just half a moment, all the bandits were killed.

"There are a total of twenty-six adults and thieves, and none of them escaped the ambush, and none of us were injured."

Chu Nan glanced up at the still panicked refugee.

The old man who was kicked to the ground didn't have much to do, stood up tremblingly, and came to Chu Nan.

"Thank you, my lord, for coming to your rescue, you are Qin Jun."

"It's Qin Jun." Chu Nan replied.

It turned out to be Qin Jun who saved them.

"No matter what, thank you for saving me, otherwise this time I will only be afraid of more evil and less lucky."

Chu Nan bowed and saluted, looking at this group of refugees, most of whom were old, weak, sick and disabled, a trace of pain flashed on his face, "Come and give them those silver coins." ”

"Absolutely not." The old man waved his hand repeatedly.

"Take it, it will be treated as a coil for you, and you should be able to reach the official road in front of this forest."

The men thanked each other.

"What about these corpses?" A golden fire cavalry approached.

Chu Nan looked at the corpses of those bandits with some disgust and said lightly, "Cut off their heads and hang them on this tree as an example." ”
