When Murong Qianran heard this, he frowned, and calmed down this guy, the meaning is very clear, he has a short hand, so he naturally doesn't want to meddle in his affairs anymore, and, it seems, this town is not capable of managing it, three hundred officers and soldiers, there is no return, hiss.... Are these really bandits?

Generally speaking, bandits and robbers only do some things to rob people's daughters and rob money, and basically rarely kill people, however..... This is a bit far-fetched, since the three hundred officers and soldiers who went to encircle and suppress all died, then the number of bandits can be imagined.

However, the origin of these bandits made Murong Qianran very interested, in this chaotic war, there will naturally be robbers and bandits, every family has their rice and grain expropriated, they can't eat, they don't want to be robbers, are they waiting to starve to death?

However, the words of the shopkeeper quickly vetoed Murong Qianran's idea.

I saw that the shopkeeper came to Murong Qianran a little mysteriously, and whispered: "Guest officer, this matter is heard from other places, and the specific small is not clear, according to the small friend, he has seen the bandits, what is strange is that there are foreigners among the bandits, in short, they know at a glance that they are not from the Central Plains, and now the war is chaotic, and it may be a spy mixed in by a foreign country."

Murong Qianran was slightly stunned, and asked sharply, "What you said is true"?

The shopkeeper was taken aback, and then nodded again and again: "That's natural, my friend is a Langzhong, hanging pots everywhere to help the world, when he walked to the fork of the official road, he was robbed by bandits, and later I learned that he was asked to save people, but he was also considered fateful, and after saving people, he escaped overnight, otherwise, he might die in the cottage."

"Then do you know that cottage place"?

The shopkeeper nodded and said, "I heard my friend say that it was at the fork in the official road, went east, climbed over a hill, and saw it."

At noon, when there were only scattered passers-by wandering in the streets, two white horses rode by, bringing up a cloud of dust, choking passers-by and coughing, and when they wanted to look up, they could see no trace of horses.

Out of the city gate, Murong Qianran and Mu Lejin drove non-stop to the official road in the east, and sure enough, they soon saw two forks, one jumped to the north, and the other jumped straight to the east.

About an hour, I saw the cottage standing in the middle of the mountain not far away, the two abandoned their horses and walked, about half an hour, before they arrived at the cottage, but they didn't dare to go rashly, always to observe the terrain, familiar with the situation of the cottage, and then it was not too late to start.

Judging from the fence erected by the cottage, it is indeed newly built, and a faint smell of new wood can be smelled, and looking at the two guards on the upper floor of the gate, they do look like people from the Hazaqi tribe, but they have changed their shapes, removed their beards, and the two guards have scimitars hanging from their waists, which are also the iconic weapons of the Hazaqi people.

Suddenly, Mu Lejin seemed to think of something, leaned into Murong Qianran's ear, lowered his voice and said: "Master, do you think it's strange, it stands to reason that bandits are undisciplined, and at this time, there are usually some noises in the cottage, and now, the cottage is quiet, and the subordinates always feel that something is not right."

After Mu Lejin mentioned it, Murong Qianran also noticed that although she had not had much contact with bandits, let alone been to the bandit village, Mu Lejin said very reasonably, bandits, as the name suggests, have no discipline and mixed personnel, and at this time, in the early days of the cottage, it was very similar..... It's like a barracks.

Murong Tianran looked around, and sure enough, he found the difference, this mountain pass is narrow, although the peak is not big, but the cottage is built on the mountainside, it seems to be a little easy to defend and difficult to attack, and there are very combat skills in it, if it is an ordinary bandit, who cares about this? If you have a place to live, you can make a nest.

Murong Qianran thought about it, patted Mu Lejin on the shoulder, and motioned for him to come along, since he is somewhat similar to the Hasaqi tribe, then, it is definitely not possible to enter from the front, and it is not appropriate to come forward at this time, it is safer to investigate clearly.

According to convention, it should be infiltrated from the rear of the enemy, which is also one of Murong Qianran's habits.

Entering from the back, it is also a personal work, just relying on light work, it is difficult to climb the cliff, it took a lot of effort, the two finally climbed the cliff, saw that there was no one below, jumped lightly, and jumped into the back of the cottage.

Several big men didn't know what they were doing in the room, and a few foul words came faintly, but the voice was extremely small, as if they were afraid of who would hear it, Murong Qianran said secretly in his heart, he was really very disciplined.

As the two of them were hunching forward, a thick voice sounded, but neither of them could hear what was said, because the man spoke in the Hazaki language.

But the other voice was Chinese, judging from the sound, Murong Qianran felt that it should be a young man.

"You don't care what the second son thinks, let you do this, you will do it, if you provoke the second son, do you still want to be your king of the mountain"?

As soon as the strong man heard the words of the second son, his tone was obviously much lower, and he didn't know what he said, but he saw the young man say again: "You just know, if you find it, come and inform me quickly, I can also let the second son feel at ease, and save nagging me all day long."

The voice gradually drifted away, it should have left, suddenly, a small hand on Mu Lejin's shoulder, scared him into a cold sweat, turned his head, but it was a handsome young woman, about sixteen or seventeen, she seemed to see a savior, plopped on her knees, kowtowed to Mu Lejin, and whispered: "Benefactor, please save me out, please, I know, you are not a copycat person, you must have a way to save me out, please."

Mu Lejin was stunned there, he and his master had only come in with great difficulty, how could he take someone out again?

"Get up first, is there any place here where we can take refuge"? Murong Qianran glanced at the woman, and saw that there was still a trace of bruises at the corners of her eyes, and the corners of her mouth were also purple, probably because she was abused, and she didn't have a cold heart to kill her, after all, when she encountered such a thing, either rescue her and then be discovered by the enemy, or solve it on the spot, saving a lot of trouble.

The woman glanced at Murong Qianran gratefully, although both of them were wearing white gauze hats, they could vaguely see that the woman was handsome and the man was handsome, she pointed to the small room next to her, and whispered: "Follow me."

When she had entered the room, she passed through another door, and came to a courtyard, which was very large, and there was a row of rooms on the side, and the woman led them to her house, and pushed the door in.

After closing the door, the woman politely asked Murong Tianran and Mu Lejin to sit down, and the two of them didn't say anything, so they simply sat down.

"I don't have any good tea here to entertain the two of you, just white water, I hope you will forgive me", the woman picked up the teapot, poured them two cups of water, and sat on the edge of the bed.

Murong looked at the room, the room was very simple, a table, two benches, a bed without a curtain, it looked very hard, there was a quilt piled up in one corner, and a musty smell could be faintly smelled.

As for the water on the table, the two of them didn't dare to drink it, and after a long time, the woman said slowly: "The little girl is the daughter of the Mu Bai family in Songhe Town, and the three sisters in the family are all ... Catch it and do it.... Prostitute, now, of the four sisters, only I am the only one still alive, and the other houses are also sisters who have been captured by bandits to be prostitutes, and I see that the two of them do not look like bandits in this cottage, so I thought, can I save me from the benefactor, I don't expect the benefactor to save the other sisters, but I ask the benefactor to save me from the sea of suffering."

After speaking, the woman's body was crooked, and she knelt on the ground again, her eyes were teary and pitiful, and Mu Lejin's heart trembled, but unexpectedly, Murong poured cold water on him and extinguished the small flame of righteousness and courage that he had just ignited, "We can't agree to your request."

The master has spoken, what can one of his subordinates do? For an irrelevant woman, quarrel with the master? Or a temper tantrum, thinking that this is the Nanshan faction, and everyone will accommodate him? Wrong, since he saw the bloody scene in the early morning, he was no longer the young and frivolous Mu Lejin.

He lowered his head slightly, did not speak again, and did not look at the woman again.

The woman was slightly stunned, frowned, looked at Murong Tianran with tears in her eyes, and choked up: "Why"?

"Because we are not familiar with this place, and besides, you are a weak woman, if you are discovered, we can run for our lives, but you are dead."

In fact, Murong Qianran wanted to tell her very much, because you would drag us down, but he was afraid that if he provoked the woman, he would summon the enemy with one voice, and at that time, even if he killed the woman, the entire cottage would be on guard, and it would be even more difficult to continue the investigation.

"This .....", the woman bit her lip, and seemed to agree with Murong Qianran's statement, speechless.

"But .....", Murong Tianran paused, deliberately lengthening his voice, "If you can help us find out something, maybe, for the sake of you helping us, we will also try our best to help you, what?"

The voice was a little indifferent, but in the woman's ears, it was like a heavenly grace, she nodded violently, and a light smile appeared on her delicate cheeks: "En'en, as long as you can save me, no matter what you want me to do, I will do it."

"Who are the people here? Don't tell me that it's a bandit, I want to listen to the truth", Murong Qianran asked lightly when he saw that the woman agreed.

The woman looked at Murong Qianran with a pair of smart eyes and said seriously: "Girl, this is a good question, at first I just came to the cottage, I thought it was a bandit, but I found a very important problem, their appearance is definitely not the Central Plains men, moreover, they are very disciplined, very rigorous, and very vigilant, but like ..... It's like a soldier in the barracks."

Murong Qianran didn't interrupt the woman, and continued to listen, "They get up before dawn, there is a big venue here, there are about five hundred people in the cottage, and you can hear a voice like a slogan before dawn every day, eating here is very frugal, meat is rare, most of them are steamed buns and vegetables, for us these are these, other people, I don't know very well."

As things became clearer and clearer, a trace of strangeness flashed in Murong Tanran's blood-red eyes, which was indeed somewhat similar to what she thought, which was probably one of the reasons why the Hazarqi clan had not moved so far.
