Xiao Qi closed his mouth and obediently stepped aside.

Fortunately, after a while, Li Lin finally came with someone.

Li Lin turned over and dismounted, walked straight to Lu Li, explained the ins and outs of the matter, and then said: "This time, our main purpose is not to suppress bandits, but to catch that little guy in the palace, can the prince of Zhenguo understand?" ”

If it was just a bandit, it wouldn't prove anything at all, and only by catching the little guy in the palace and smashing it on Chu Yu's face with this conclusive evidence could the king convict Chu Yu.

"Master Lee is right." Lu Li naturally understood, he nodded, and said, "Listen to Lord Li's meaning, but if you have any ideas, you might as well say it and listen to it." ”

Hearing this, Li Lin smiled and said, "Sure enough, I can't hide anything from Zhen Guogong." ”

He took a few steps back, pointed to the army that had followed him, and said, "This is the most effective soldier on the king's side, and now he has been transferred by me to surround the entire Liquan Mountain, block every passage down the mountain, and let the little man who reported the news have nowhere to escape." ”

"As for us, we can rush up with people directly." When he said this, Li Lin looked up at the high place on the mountain and said, "If we can catch the bandit boss and the little guy who reported the news on the spot, it will naturally be the best, but if we can't catch it, at least they will stop it." ”

It's a simple and crude solution, but it's undeniably the most practical one.

You know, the bandit is cunning, and if he doesn't put up a few more barriers, no one knows where he will slip away.

"Okay, just follow what Master Li said." Lu Li nodded, "Then today I will be under your command and listen to your orders." ”

"Thank you Zhenguo Gong for your help!"

Because of the guidance of the eyeliner hidden in the village at the foot of the mountain before, Li Lin and the others went up the mountain unhindered all the way without being discovered by anyone. When he arrived not far from the cottage, Li Lin stopped with someone.

"Stop here, surround this stockade, and don't let anyone escape, you know?" Li Lin finally told this team with a large number of people.

Everyone nodded in unison, and immediately began to walk towards the outer edge of the stockade, and soon quietly surrounded the entire stockade.

They went smoothly, and Li Lin also rushed into the stockade with Lu Li and a few secret guards, all the way to the center of the stockade, and rushed over where Zhao Shan was.

Xu knew that a group of bandits had been caught in the city, and the bandits in this village were very vigilant, but after all, there were many people missing, even if they wanted to defend strictly, there were not so many people, so Li Lin and they slipped into the place where Zhao Shan was very easily.

But the room was quiet, not only was there no figure, but not even the slightest sound could be heard.

Seeing this, Lu Li couldn't help frowning, and asked in a low voice: "Li Lin, can you be sure that this is Zhao Shan's residence?" ”

On the surface, this place is magnificent, and even the door of the house is a cottage, which is different from other places, and on the surface, it is indeed very likely that this is the head of the bandits, that is, Zhao Shan's residence.

But logically speaking, the little guy in the palace came to pass the message, didn't the head of the bandit know that his subordinates were arrested at this time? If he didn't stay in his cottage, where would he go now?

However, even so, Li Lin was still very confident, he said: "Zhen Guogong, you can rest assured, I ambushed at the foot of the mountain eyeliner once came up, and he gave me a map of the cottage, which is clearly marked that this is Zhao Shan's house." ”

"But we've been waiting for so long, why haven't we seen a single figure?" Xiao Qi inevitably questioned.

"Little brother, you can wait for a while." Li Lin appeased.

The group hid two in the east and three in the west, and waited for half an hour, but they still didn't even see Zhao Shan's shadow.

Now, not only Xiao Qi couldn't bear it, but even Lu Li was a little impatient, he looked at Li Lin slightly sideways, with a serious face: "Lord Li, to be honest, is this really Zhao Shan's residence?" Will he really be here? ”

Li Lin, who was still full of confidence, also lowered his head at this time, and he didn't dare to speak with a weak heart.

Seeing this, Lu Li couldn't help sighing, he looked left and right, and while the patrolling bandits hadn't come over, he leaned into Li Lin's ear and said, "You guys stay here first, I'll go to other places to take a look." ”

"No way!" Li Lin stopped him and said solemnly: "This can't work, what if something happens to you?" Those thieves are very cunning, and if this is a trap they have set, then aren't you—"

"Is there a better way to do it now?" Lu Li frowned and interrupted.

Nearly two hours have passed since Li Lin left the city, and the sky is about to darken, but they haven't even seen the shadow of Zhao Shan, if they continue like this, let alone exterminate the bandits and catch Chu Yu, the mastermind behind the scenes, even they themselves may encounter accidents.

Besides, the little man in the palace who came to deliver the message was never found, if he had already gone down the mountain, wouldn't Chu Yu in Bei'an City notice the abnormality? At that time, even the king may be in danger!

After thinking about it, Li Lin could only agree with Lu Li's approach.

However, when Lu Li was about to go around, Xiao Qi and the leader of the dark guard also chased after him, so as to ensure Lu Li's safety in time.

Lu Li left, and Li Lin and the remaining dozen or so secret guards continued to stay in the distance.

However, coincidentally, not long after Lu Li just left with Xiao Qi and Qi Ming, Zhao Shan actually showed up!

That Zhao Shan was majestic and burly, his beard almost covered his entire face, and he came back with a cold and glistening machete with a displeased expression, and he was menacing, followed by a little boy with low eyebrows and a hunched chest.

Looking at what the little boy was wearing, wasn't it just the little guy who ran out of the city to report the news!

Li Lin came to the spirit at the time, and hurriedly asked the secret guards to find Lu Li and come back, so that he could dare to unite Lu Li and more than a dozen secret guards to take down Zhao Shan and the little guy in one fell swoop before the palace servant left!

At the stall where the secret guard went out to find someone, Li Lin stared intently at Zhao Shan and Xiaowu in the house, listening to the conversation between the two.

"Boss Zhao, you have to do what our master says! Otherwise, don't say it's you, even the master himself can't protect himself! The little guy was very excited, and his voice was very high.

However, Zhao Shan, who was known as Boss Zhao, frowned, sat on the couch without saying a word, and had a sad face.

Seeing the persuasion, the little guy became more and more energetic: "Boss Zhao, our master said that as long as you can cooperate with him to get through this difficulty this time, then your brothers still have a way to live, otherwise... Ay! Think for yourself, when did our master fail to fulfill his promise? What the hell are you afraid of?! ”

"It's not a question of being afraid or not!" Boss Zhao finally spoke, he fell on the machete, and his voice was low: "If I do what the prince said this time, then what should my brother on the mountain think of me?" Will they still obey my discipline? ”

exchanging the lives of so many brothers for his own lives, Zhao Shan can't do this!

As soon as he heard this, the little guy became anxious, and said a lot of things, trying his best to persuade the other party to follow the wishes of his master, and not to go against the wishes of his master.

Listening and listening, Li Lin on the side also heard something.

Probably the thieves were arrested, and Chu Yu was afraid that these thieves would confess their relationship with Zhao Shan, so he wanted Zhao Shan to help him with something, so as to prove that these thieves had nothing to do with them, so as to clear Chu Yu's own suspicion.

Chu Yu's abacus was slippery, and his heart was ruthless enough, but he didn't expect that his perfect plan was stuck in Zhao Shan's step.

"Master Lee."

Just as he was thinking, Lu Li's voice came from not far away, Li Lin hurriedly stopped his thoughts, turned around and nodded.

After a while, Lu Li returned to Li Lin's side under Zhao Shan's nose and asked, "I went out to find someone just now, and I have already surveyed the cottage, and now there are still many bandits left here, are you sure to exterminate them in one fell swoop?" ”

After all, this is the territory of the bandits, and even if the number of people is equal, it is the bandits who have the upper hand.

"Don't worry, capture the thief and capture the king first, now that Zhao Shan is inside, we just need to subdue him first." Li Lin swore an oath.

Lu Li leaned over and glanced inside the house, then observed the terrain on the left and right, then nodded and said, "Then follow what you say, wait for us to rush in directly, you catch that little guy, I will subdue Zhao Shan, and strive to take it in the fastest time." ”

"Yes."

The two hit it off, they gestured to the guards who were ambushed around them, and then specially avoided the time of the bandits' patrol and rushed in directly.

Zhao Shan in the house was arguing with the little guy in the palace, and he didn't react at all to where so many people came out, just when he just reacted and was about to get up and take his weapon, Lu Li quickly rushed over, and a roundabout kick kicked Zhao Shan stunned.

The process of capturing Zhao Shan and the palace was surprisingly smooth, the secret guards suppressed the two, and then Zhao Shan gave a signal, and the soldiers who originally surrounded the cottage rushed up directly and subdued all the bandits in the village who were still unknown.

In fact, there were some bandits who wanted to resist, but when Lu Li came out with Zhao Shan, who was tied up by five flowers, those bandits were all dumbfounded, so they could only put down their weapons and surrender obediently.

"It's not early, let's go back quickly." Li Lin said with a smile: "Grandpa Guo, happy cooperation. ”

Lu Li pursed his lips and smiled slightly, "Happy cooperation." ”

As long as Zhao Shan and the little servants in the palace can be captured, and the king can find a reason to imprison Chu Yu, then he and Xiao Man will be able to live in Canglan with peace of mind in the future, until they are busy with the things at hand, and it is not too late to return to Beijing.

However, it's not that simple.

Suddenly there was an exclamation from the crowd: "Oh no! ”

The secret guard who was responsible for imprisoning the palace maid at the back suddenly rushed up, holding the little guy who was no longer breathing in one hand, and shouted in panic: "Master, this kid committed suicide!" ”
