Chapter Twenty-Four: The Bandit Buster
In his own lair, the three bandits were forced to kneel underground. Lao Wo has been in the mountain temple for so long, and the bandits have never knelt or kowtowed to the mountain god once, but today they bent their knees to the commander of the national army in front of the mountain god.
"Say your name, your occupation." Hu Fei sat in the middle with a golden knife and interrogated the bandits like a county magistrate trying a case.
"Niu Jinxing, Zhang Dalong, Li Hu." After the three bandits reported their names, they secretly glanced at the national army commander sitting above, "We are all ordinary people and peasants. ”
"Ordinary people? Farmer? Do ordinary people have guns? Hmph, you don't look like a serious person with your thief eyebrows and rat eyes, and if I don't give you some powerful taste, you boys won't tell the truth. Come on, give the boys some sweetness, and let them increase their memory! Hu Fei slapped the table, and a few people jumped over from the side, first giving each person two mouths, followed by a punch and kick!
"Sir! Sir, we have been wronged, wronged! ”
"Wronged? It's you who have been wronged! The soldier couldn't help but say, he kicked with his feet under his fist, and beat the boy with a cry and howl, just like the dead old man. In less than two minutes, the bandits were bleeding from their mouths and noses and falling to the ground. Hu Fei shouted to stop, and several thugs split to both sides, revealing the three poor people in the middle.
"Now do you want to say it? Needless to say, what I have here is the means. Peeling, cramping, lighting sky lanterns, Lao Tzu hasn't played for a long time. Are you three tough guys going to let me practice? ”
Practicing your hands? Is this the national army? The three bandits felt a pang of despair in their hearts. Based on their past crimes, being caught by the police is a big deal; If it falls into the hands of this person, it looks like it will be a bad luck! The two and three of them were frightened half to death by Hu Fei's methods and words, and they had no choice but to tell the truth.
The servants told them in detail about their experience of being bandits, and how they robbed the ten carts of Western medicine. It was the third child who came up with the idea, and it was the boss who commanded the crime, and they were just coercing. After the three of them confessed their crimes, they begged the chief to spare their lives.
"Want to live? That's easy, take me to get those ten carts of Western medicine back, and maybe I'll spare your lives as soon as I'm happy. If you can't find it, I'm sorry, I'll let you try the three things I just said! You can discuss it in advance and see if it is good to peel the skin? Or is it better to have cramps? Or is it more cost-effective to light a sky lantern? You discuss it first, so that you don't have to worry about it. ”
None of the three is cost-effective! The three of them shook their heads together, we will help you find the medicine back, and we will not discuss the three things.
Well, if you're willing to help find the lost medicine, that's fine. The three kinds of torture are majestic to say, and they are really troublesome to use. Hu Fei is not a person with psychological quirks, and he is certainly willing to solve it smoothly.
"Sir, I have something to say." It's time to go, the second child suddenly has something to do again.
"What's the matter?" Hu Fei looked impatient.
"There are a pair of silver bracelets under the pillow in my room, which my mother left behind. Please, sir, let me go and find the bracelets and take them with me. "The second child came back with a bracelet, if it wasn't for her mother's bracelet, could he have been caught and beaten like this?
"When you find those Western medicines, Lao Tzu will give you a reward, not to mention silver bracelets, gold bracelets, jade bracelets, what kind of bracelets can't you buy? Hurry up, I've delayed Lao Tzu's business, don't even think about living any of you! Walk! Hu Fei raised his foot and kicked the second child's buttocks, kicking the kid to the ground.
Just now, the soldiers under his command moved out the tables, chairs and benches and almost set them on fire, how can there be any silver bracelets? Even if there were, I don't know which one I've gone into. For the sake of a bandit, let the soldiers hand over the loot in their hands, first, it is troublesome, and second, he does not conform to Hu Fei's usual rules!
Hu Fei's rule for the troops is that whoever seizes the gold and silver property in the spoils of war belongs to whomever he wants, and of course he can't break his own military rules for the sake of a bandit.
At this point, the second child can only consider himself unlucky. Compared with her own life, my mother's relics are obviously more attractive than my life. met Hu Fei, a genuine bandit leader, and the bandits in Niutouling could be regarded as a real nemesis.
The troops descended the mountain, and the three bandits pointed the way and quickly rushed to the grove where the bandits had parted. How far can you go with a half-hour trot on two feet? The troops marched in a hurry, that is, they arrived at the place in just over half an hour. When I got into the woods, there was no one!
Good boy, you dare to lie to me? Hu Fei was suddenly furious in his heart, raised his hand and gave the second child closest to him a big mouth, and this slap knocked the second child out and rolled away.
"Phineas, look!" When Hu Fei was about to chase after him and continue to fight, Gou Tianxiao suddenly called out to him. Hu Fei turned his eyes and saw the reconnaissance battalion commander pointing to a tree. It was a thick, tall poplar tree, and the bark of the tree had been scraped off, revealing a white stubble trunk. Someone on it used a black pen to write a few crooked Chinese characters: Huangfengling in the north.
Huang Fengling? Yellow Wind Monster? Did those bandits go to the monsters? Hu Fei was really surprised by this place name. Fortunately, the bandit leader named Niu Jinxing helped him solve this problem in time.
Huangfengling is a small mountain village thirty miles to the north, and the Niutouling bandits used to go to that village when they committed crimes before.
Since the village is located on the edge of the mountain, the geographical location is relatively remote, and there are few outsiders, and the bandits were ready to move their nest to Huangfengling. Now that they have snatched such a large number of prickly medicines, they must not dare to stay in this grove for a long time, and the gang will go to Huangfengling first to wait for the second child.
Thirty miles to the north, isn't it? Wow, let's go! It's better to go sooner rather than later! Hu Fei turned over the spotted horse, and temporarily the three regiments rushed to Huangfengling. After walking more than two miles, Hu Fei restrained his horse, and as soon as he stopped, the whole army stopped.
Ji Jinbiao and Gou Tianxiao immediately came over to ask about the situation, and Chief of Staff Liu Dong also came over, and the big guys all looked at Hu Fei in confusion. Why didn't Phineas leave?
"You say, are the bandits really in Huangfengling, thirty miles away?" Hu Fei didn't explain why he stopped, but asked the generals an inexplicable question.
"Then who knows? May or may not be there. Does Fei Ge mean that the kid named Niu Venus deceived us? Fuck, I'm going to cut him right now! ”
The hot-tempered Ji Jinbiao turned around and was about to look for Niu Jinxing's bad luck, Hu Fei opened his mouth and shouted to stop him, "Leopard, you stop for me!" Did I say that Niu Venus lied to us? When can you change your temper? Ji Jinbiao smiled and stood there silent.
For this kind of henchman, of course, Hu Fei will not be too harsh, and he will forget it when he says it. Anyway, this person's hot temper is not a day or two, if he can change it, he will change it a long time ago.
"What does Phinea mean?" Liu Dong seemed to have guessed something.
