Chapter 444: Behind the Bandits
Fu Ran and Lei Nian returned the same way, this matter is too strange, if they take action without understanding the situation, they will definitely hurt the innocent. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
When the two of them appeared at the entrance of the canyon, Ling Yue'er and Yang Die appeared, both looking at Fu Ran and the others suspiciously.
At that moment, Fu Ran told the situation in the depths of the canyon one by one, and after hearing about it, the second daughter also frowned.
If the canyon was full of bandits, they wouldn't have the slightest compassion, but that's not the case, it's impossible for a child to become a bandit at a few years old, right?
Fu Ran clearly saw that there was a baby just now.
"Fortunately, we didn't deal with those two people just now, so let's wake up and ask them first. After half a ring, Ling Yue'er spoke.
Fu Ran nodded, he and Lei Idiot also thought the same, as for the eight people who sealed the Xuan Palace, they would not wake up in a short time, and in a hidden place, they would not be discovered for a while.
However, there was not much time left for Fu Ran and the others, and when the people in the depths of the canyon found out that the ten people on patrol had not returned for a long time, they would definitely send someone to look for them.
At that moment, the four of them came to a dense forest, and the two people who were stunned by Ling Yue'er just now were tied to the trunk of a tree.
Ling Yue'er stepped forward, her hands fell on the heads of the two of them, the light on the palms of her hands flickered, and a soft Xuan power poured into the two of them.
"Ling Duel!"
Fu Ran raised his eyebrows, others couldn't see it, but how could he not see the means that Ling Yue'er was using at this moment.
After a while, the two of them woke up, and they were still a little confused at first, but when they saw Fu Ran and the four of them, their faces suddenly changed greatly, revealing horror.
"Spare me, I have offended the four of you somewhere?" One of them had a trembling voice, and the other bowed his head and remained silent, but his constantly shaking body still showed fear in his heart.
Fu Ran just wanted to speak, but was stopped by Yang Die, and when he saw the flickering cunning in the latter's eyes, Fu Ran also smiled and shook his head.
"Ahem...... Miss Ben passed by here, and heard that there was a gang of bandits entrenched here, so she decided to destroy it, Miss Ben has sent many masters to go, presumably at this time there are already corpses all over the field, you two are unlucky, it falls into the hands of Miss Ben, Miss Ben has to have enough!" Yang Die looked proud, and with the old spirit on his body, he looked like some gentlemen.
Just when Yang Die was waiting for the two to kneel on the ground and beg for mercy, who knew that the two were stunned at first, and then their eyes were bloodshot, gritting their teeth, and staring at Yang Die, which looked like a sea of blood hatred.
"How dare you...... I won't let you go!"
"Even if you turn into a ghost, you will be haunted by eternal life!"
The two of them roared like crazy, their eyes were red, and they bit their lips, even if they were bleeding.
The four people, including Yang Die, all looked pale, and this group of thieves was really not as introduced in the mission.
"We are students from the East Courtyard of Qingfeng Academy, and we are only here to carry out a mission, we have already dived into the depths of the canyon just now, but because the actual situation is too different from the task, we didn't do it. After contemplating, Lei Idiot sighed and spoke.
"Yes, there are only more than 100 bandits introduced in the mission, but the depths of the canyon are like villages, and I'm afraid there are more than 1,000 people living in them, what is going on?" Fu Ran said.
After hearing the words of Lei Idiot and Fu Ran, the two who were originally like crazy were stunned for a moment, and hurriedly asked, "So you haven't done anything to them yet?"
Ling Yue'er nodded and said, "We want to know more from you, Yang Die just now was just to scare you." ”
At the same time as Ling Yue'er spoke, Yang Die took out the white jade that represented her identity.
Seeing the white jade in Yang Die's hand, the two of them nodded, and their hearts were a little relieved, this place is not far from the East Courtyard, and they have also heard of the East Courtyard's style of acting, so they will not kill innocents indiscriminately.
"Since it is in your hands, it is okay to tell you, we are indeed bandits entrenched here, but I have never dealt with the common people. One of them spoke.
The other nodded and said, " We were originally the people of Dongcheng, at that time the Dongcheng Chamber of Commerce wanted to transport things, hired us, on the way we accidentally learned that the transport was actually black hemp, have found the Chamber of Commerce theory, who knows that the people of the Chamber of Commerce saw that the matter was revealed, they wanted to kill people, that battle killed and injured a lot, we saw that the other party was defeated, so we fled, and then fled to this canyon, the villagers here accepted us, and then we occupied the mountain here as the king, and the main object of our attack, it is also the Dongcheng Chamber of Commerce, sometimes it will also be on some of the scheming gold masters. ”
Fu Ran's expressions were different, and they couldn't fully believe what they said.
As for the so-called black hemp, it is a kind of medicinal material, with an anesthetic effect, which can be purchased in general pharmacies, but the quantity is very small, once you take too much black hemp, it will make people hallucinate, the blood accelerates, and the vitality passes very quickly in the long run, so almost any empire controls the amount of black hemp at a certain amount.
A chamber of commerce transports black hemp, this matter is indeed problematic, after all, black hemp is something that is strictly controlled by the government, and it is all transported and distributed by the official.
"Since you have escaped, in order not to be exposed, the Dongcheng Chamber of Commerce should send someone to encircle and suppress you, how can there be no reaction?"
A chamber of commerce secretly sells black hemp, if this matter is known to the empire, it will not be ignored, and this cave city chamber of commerce will definitely do everything possible to kill people and kill people.
"Yes, at the beginning, the Dongcheng Chamber of Commerce sent a lot of people, but because the canyon is easy to defend and difficult to attack, they have lost a lot of people, three times before and after, and then there was no action, we also used to let people go to report to the official, but went twice, the people who went disappeared inexplicably, and never came back, and we also guessed what happened. One of them spoke.
Fu Ran nodded, he was also born in an official family, so he naturally knew that most of the magistrates had a relationship with the local chamber of commerce or the local snake.
"Those villagers in the canyon are not as simple as you say, are they?" Ling Yue'er asked.
Both of them nodded, and one of them said, "We settled down in the canyon, and we also married and had children with the villagers, and completely integrated with them." ”
"What's going on with the town ten miles away? Lei Idiot said.
If the truth is as these two people say, they don't target the common people, then how can the people of the small town issue a mission?
"The reason is very simple, most of the people in that town have to take black hemp, and it must be the Dongcheng Chamber of Commerce that controls these people in the back. One sneered.
Fu Ran's expression changed slightly, taking black hemp is a big crime, if this is the case, it will really be controlled by the Dongcheng Chamber of Commerce.
"What should I do about this?" asked Ling Yue'er with his head turned to Ling Yue'er, apparently believing the words of the two of them.
Hearing this, Ling Yue'er fell into a deep contemplation, if what these two said was true, then it would be too different from the task.
And these bandits did not make a heinous mistake, if they were all killed, it was really unbearable, and these people and the people of the village were already inseparable, if these people were killed, wouldn't it be ruin to those village masters in the depths of the canyon?
"Regardless of whether what the two of them said is true or false, first send a message to the academy about what we know, and wait for a reply from the academy!" Yang Die said.
Fu Ran nodded, this matter is very different from the task, and it involves a lot, not only the chamber of commerce and officials, but even a small town person, which is beyond the scope of what they can handle.
Regarding Yang Die's proposal, Ling Yue'er and Lei Idiot both nodded.
"Then I'll send a message to the academy immediately!" Immediately, Yang Die took out the white jade and pasted it on his head.
The white jade not only represents the identity of the student, but is also used to store the amount of Xuan liquid, and at the same time, it can also transmit messages within a certain range.
When Yang Die sent the message, Ling Yue'er looked at the two of them and said, "Before the academy doesn't reply, you can only suffer some grievances." ”
In this regard, these two people could only nod helplessly, they were now in the hands of Fu Ran and the four of them, which could be described as mermaid meat, and they also believed that if the East Courtyard of Qingfeng Academy knew the ins and outs of the whole matter, they should not think about it.
After half a ring, Yang Die opened his eyes and said, "The mission continues." ”
(To be continued.) )
