A cold wind blowing bone-scraping blew through, blowing up the snow dancing in the sky, blowing away the smoke after the explosion of inferior black powder, and even blowing away the remnants of the four horse bandits.

"Brother Yang, Brother Qin, Brother Shan, do you still have the strength to walk?" After the battle, Feng Wenhan led people to beat horses and walked a few feet in front of Yang Pingwei and the others, turned over and dismounted, and said as he walked, "Xiao Jiang, quickly go and prepare food and ginger soup, community, find someone to help deal with the wounds." ”

"Plop", the remaining eight people could no longer support it, and they collapsed to the ground weakly, hearing Feng Wenhan's 'ridicule', everyone shook their heads and smiled bitterly, this time it was really embarrassing.

After a short rest, everyone's wounds were temporarily disinfected and bandaged. Yang Pingwei arched his hand and said: "I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed, this time Brother Feng and the other brothers laughed!"

"Ho ho..." Feng Wenhan waved his hand, just about to say something, it happened that Xiao Jiang and the others who were sent to get food and ginger soup came back at this time, Feng Wenhan hurriedly turned around and reached out to take two portions of ginger soup, "You distribute these to the brothers who have lost their strength." Then he handed the two servings of ginger soup in his hand to Yang Pingwei and Qin Han, "Drink a bowl of ginger soup to warm up your body first, and then eat something to restore your strength." ”

"Thank you!" Under the pressure of hunger and cold, Yang Pingwei was not hypocritical, after reaching out to take the soup bowl, he took a sip, tested the temperature, and then poured it into his stomach with a big gulp, "Ha... Comfortable!"

"Hahaha... What Brother Yang said is extremely true!" Qin Han wiped the corners of his mouth vigorously with his sleeve, then picked up a steamed bun, and grinned while nibbling on it, "Comfortable! Comfortable! It's really comfortable! It's been a few days to suffocate Lao Tzu!"

"Hehe, eat some more!" It was rare to see Yang Pingwei revealing his true temperament, Feng Wenhan felt a little funny, and he was not too dirty, so he found an open space next to a few people and sat down, and said, "Brother Yang, Brother Qin, can you tell me about the specific situation?"

The two of them froze, and after looking at each other, Yang Pingwei sighed and said, "This matter is a long story..."

"Wen Han listens!"

Yang Pingwei began to speak slowly, his tone was flat without a trace of emotion, "... After we completed the transaction with the Bai family, it reversed itself...... Two days later, he was targeted by this group of horse bandits... The mountains and rivers are exhausted, and I thought that my fate would stop here..."Speaking of this, Yang Pingwei's emotions finally had waves, and the joy of dying in a desperate situation made it difficult for him to suppress, "I didn't expect to see our snow house, and you all know what happened next." ”

"I see!" Feng Wenhan frowned, touched his beard with one hand, and kept tapping his knees with the other, and said with some uncertainty: "You say, are these horse bandits pure horse bandits?"

After being silent for a while, Yang Pingwei smiled: "It should have happened by chance!"

"How so?"

"Because it's not necessary!" Yang Pingwei said very casually, "Even if there is no such gang of horse bandits, there will be other A bandits, B bandits, and C bandits, just like the two waves of thieves before the horse bandits, there is no shortage of such people in the Atonement Wilderness." Therefore, there is no need! There is no need for the Bai family to make such a decision! If it is just a temptation, they are also afraid that we will be caught, and someone will help them explore the way, wouldn't it be in their hands?"

"But this obviously doesn't look like a temptation, it's clearly trying to kill you!"

"If it's for our death, just do it in the City of Atonement!"

"Then what's going on with these horse bandits? Shouldn't they all be unprofitable and can't afford to do it early? If you can't do anything, you should retreat decisively, and if you keep holding on like this, even if you are destroyed, they won't be able to recover the losses, if there is no other purpose, they will be stupid to do this!"

"This..."

"What's the use of thinking so much here? Didn't you catch a live mouthful? Just ask if you can't find out!" Qin Han finished eating his share of food in two bites, clenched his fists, felt his strength recover, and stood up and said.

"It's good!"

"Try it!"

Yang Pingwei hurriedly sped up, swallowed the last mouthful of porridge, and then went with Qin Han and Feng Wenhan to interrogate the prisoners.

"What happened to that leader, dead or caught?" asked Yang Pingwei on the way to the prisoner's temporary detention site.

"Why can't it just run away?" Feng Wenhan said curiously.

"What did you say, ran away?" Before Yang Pingwei could say anything, Qin Han rushed to Feng Wenhan and grabbed him by the collar and shouted.

"Crooked, let go!" Feng Wenhan darkened his face, pushed Qin Han away, and stroked his crumpled collar in disgust, "Is this your attitude towards your life-saving benefactor?"

"Heh... Heh..."Realizing that he had started, Qin Han hurriedly took two steps back, and said with a dry smile: "Impulsive, impulsive! I hope Brother Feng will forgive me!"

"Brother Feng, Brother Feng... This guy's temper is like this, don't be like him!" Yang Pingwei glared at Qin Han and followed suit.

"Okay, my lord has a lot!" Feng Wenhan flicked his sleeves, turned around and walked forward, and soon he led the two of them to a corpse, "Huh... This is their leader, according to the bandit leader, his name is Scimitar Jian, and he is well-known in the wilderness. More than 20 years ago, he fled to the wilderness because of murder, starting as a small minion and killing the leader of a small horse team with a scimitar, which can be regarded as a talent. ”

"That's this guy!" After Yang Pingwei and Qin Han approached and observed after hearing this, Qin Han couldn't help but grit his teeth and said.

I saw that the corpse had a hideous face, round eyes, unwilling and remorseful, and it was a square-faced man over forty years old.

“... Hey, if we can force us to heaven and have no way, we can be regarded as dead!" After a long silence, Yang Pingwei sighed, "After all, the dead are big, so let's bury them alive!"

"Cut, the reader is hypocritical!I didn't see you say that you buried all the corpses of the horse bandits!" Qin Han sneered.

"You're straightforward! Then you buried them all!" Yang Pingwei smiled lightly.

"Eh..."Qin Han was stunned for a moment, and then said angrily, "You are secretly changing concepts!"

"Hahaha... Let's go! We still have to get down to business!" Yang Pingwei didn't bother to talk to him, and at this time he had already dragged Feng Wenhan to interrogate the prisoners.

"You..." Qin Han was so angry that he could only grit his teeth and follow.

The results of the interrogation were generally unexpected, and these little minions could not tell any deep information, and they just said trivial things, which did not matter.

"I can't ask! These people are simply acting on orders, and they don't know why Scimitar Jian is holding on to us. But according to them, they don't agree with us very much about the scimitar building death bite, it is the scimitar construction alone. According to this reasoning, it is very likely that Scimitar Jian was hired by someone, and only in this way, Scimitar Jian thanklessly chased us, and the other members of the horse bandits did not know the reason, it all made sense. The scimitar was instructed by someone, and the people behind the scenes didn't want too many people to know about it, so they told the scimitar not to spread it crookedly, so the scimitar built ignored the objections of his subordinates, and insisted on going his own way but was unwilling to explain. Yang Pingwei said in a deep voice, his face was very ugly.

If this is the case, then it is debatable whether to trade with the Bai family as agreed next time.

"Well, you have a point, but it's not necessarily true. Feng Wenhan said.

"Do you have a different opinion?" Yang Pingwei hurriedly asked.

"That's right!" Feng Wenhan affirmed, "we can look at the character of the scimitar building, if it makes people arrogant and calculating! Such a person suddenly encounters a setback somewhere after he has never had a setback, what do you think he will do?"

"Naturally, where you encounter setbacks, you have to find a place to get back!" Qin Han replied without thinking.

"Uh... Are you saying that Machete is such a person! Do you have proof?"

"No!" Feng Wenhan spread his hands very unhurriedly and said, "But what I said was 'if', if he was such a person, everything would make sense." ”

"Cut, you're not as good as Brother Yang said!"

"But it's also a possibility! Can you guarantee that Machematis is not such a person?"

Qin Han was choked so hard that he had to shut up.

"I have suffered a loss, and I can still fight for breath, and then suffer a second loss, but after hitting the wall one after another, I know that it is a hard bone, and I have to risk my teeth being broken to the end, this just 'will' doesn't make sense, right?" Yang Pingwei said.

Feng Wenhan glanced at him appreciatively, and said: "It really doesn't make sense! But have you thought about it, a person knows that he has provoked a branch of a big force, and his strength is stronger than this branch, then, in order not to cause big trouble to himself, preventing news leakage is the best way, and the dead... It's the best way to keep secrets!"

"If Scimitar Jian can hear these remarks, he will definitely sigh 'I am not alone'.

"Let's think so!" Yang Pingwei thought for a while, nodded, and acquiesced in Feng Wenhan's opinion. It's not that he really thinks that Feng Wenhan's inferences are better than his own, but that Feng Wenhan's inferences are more in line with Huaxia's interests than his own.

"Oh, by the way, why are you here?" Yang Pingwei looked at the north side and said excitedly, "Could it be that a big river flows through here?"

"That's right!" Speaking of this, Feng Wenhan's mood was obviously good, and he even had some eyebrows fluttering, "It's only twenty miles away from here!"

Yang Pingwei and Qin Han: "Great!"

"I won't have to drill the damn jungle anymore!"

"It's just a pity that the goods were discarded a lot along the way in order to reduce the burden!"

"What's the pity, since the waterway has been opened, it will be much easier to come back next time. "Qin and Han have recovered, after all, they are soldiers, and their depression is only for a while, "We can even send people to organize caravans by ourselves, and the guards are all our own brothers, and everyone is equipped with high-headed horses! ”

"It's extreme, it's extreme!" Yang Pingwei laughed when he heard this, and the haze in his chest was swept away, and said: "Once the business road is passed, Huaxia will definitely embark on the fast lane, and the period of our generation's achievements is not far away!"

"Hahaha..."

"Let's go, when the brothers recover their strength, we will return to Xin'an Town immediately, presumably the lord is already looking forward to it!" After laughing, Feng Wenhan pulled the two and said.

"Has the lord returned to Xin'an Town?"

"I wasn't there when I came!"

"Didn't you go with us, the lord was still in Xin'an Town at that time!" Qin Han said mercilessly.

Feng Wenhan suddenly had a black line and said, "That was the first time I left the town, and I went back once halfway, and this is the second time I left the town." ”

"If you don't make it clear yourself, who is to blame?"

"You..." Feng Wenhan felt that it was a mistake to take Qin Han's words, so he decided to ignore him anymore and said, "Okay, look at your dragon spirit and tiger fierceness, you must be well rested, since this is the case, you will beckon your subordinates to go!"

"Then what should we do with these captives? should they be killed or released, or should they be brought back?"

"Take it back! Maybe it will be useful in the future!" Yang Pingwei thought for a while and said.

Since Yang Pingwei said so, Feng Wenhan naturally didn't say much, anyway, it was just five more people who ate leftovers.

On the other side, Bai Yi waved his hand to drag the corpse down and throw it away, and he walked to Bai Nengwu's horse and bowed down and said: Young master, ask clearly, the Huaxia people have been freed, and only four horse bandits have escaped. ”

Because the detection range of the mysterious mirror is only ten miles, the Bai family and his party did not know the specific situation later, originally they roughly guessed it, it doesn't matter if they know it or not, they didn't expect that one of the four lucky people among the horse bandits would rush to their side, so it didn't take much effort, by the way, 'inquire', and it was good to confirm their conjecture.

So, this horse bandit is a tragedy.

"Got it, hurry up and rush back to the City of Atonement at once!"
