Chapter 53 Inquiry
He Shubiao just wanted to open his mouth to ridicule Tian Shaobo, but Meng Xiye was already impatient. He grabbed in front of He Shubiao and said, "You two shut up, everyone is brothers, is it interesting to be noisy all day long?"
From Meng Xiye's words, it can be heard that He Shubiao and Tian Shaobo have long been at odds, and quarrels like today have often occurred in the past, so Meng Xiye said that they were noisy all day long.
When He Shubiao and Tian Shaobo heard this, they both thought to themselves in their hearts: "Who is his brother?"
Although the two of them were convinced, Meng Xiye's words have always been very important among these bandits, and they didn't dare to do it, so they had to shut up and be silent. He Shubiao had secretly thought about ridiculing Tian Shaobo just now, but he had to swallow it back into his stomach and didn't say it. He knew that he really couldn't beat Lin Xu, and he still expected Meng Xiye to avenge himself, of course he didn't dare to offend Meng Xiye.
The rest of the thieves saw that He Shubiao and Tian Shaobo were stopped by Meng Xiye, and it was impossible for them to fight anymore, and they all showed a look of disappointment. It seems that most of them still hope that He Shubiao and Tian Shaobo will fight, and it is best to lose both, and they may be able to reap the benefits of the fisherman. This shows how selfish these bandits are, only thinking about themselves, and not caring about the feelings of others, even their own accomplices, without exception.
Meng Xiye thought about it, and actually attributed the infighting between He Shubiao and Tian Shaobo to Lin Xu. Because in his opinion, if Lin Xuan hadn't injured He Shubiao, then Tian Shaobo would not have mocked He Shubiao, and there would have been no infighting just now.
Meng Xiye thought of this, and his face immediately became gloomy, and he said viciously: "Lin Xu, this damn thing, I haven't seen what he looks like, and he actually caused me these troubles." When I meet him, I must take his life and never stay in this world. ”
These words just happened to speak to He Shubiao's heart. He immediately echoed Meng Xiye and said, "Yes, boss, Lin Xuan still said that he wants to exterminate us, and he has already determined that he will not be able to get along with us, and we must not let him go." ”
"Then we'll wait for him to come. When the time comes, he must be allowed to come and go and be buried under this Qingxian Peak. Meng Xiye gritted his teeth fiercely and said. Looking at his appearance, it seems that he is about to eat people.
However, he hadn't seen Lin Xu, but he also knew his strength clearly. Even if he hated Lin Xuan and knew that Lin Xuan was in the kamikaze camp, he didn't dare to go to Lin Xuan to settle accounts. Because a mere group of bandits, at most fifteen or sixteen people, would never have rushed into the kamikaze camp with thousands of men and horses. Then his only way was to wait for Lin Xuan to leave the kamikaze camp, and it was best to go to the territory he was familiar with before making a move.
Meng Xiye spoke wildly, not knowing whether he was alive or dead. When he meets Lin Xu, he will regret what he said now. At that time, it was not a question of him taking Lin Xu's life, but a question of how Lin Xuan would deal with him. With his current strength, he may not even be able to reach one-fifth of Lin Xu's, and whether he can survive depends on Lin Xu's intentions.
Coincidentally, just when Meng Xiye and He Shubiao were thinking about taking revenge on Lin Xu, Lin Xu was also investigating their whereabouts, preparing to arrest them all, so that these bandits would not harm the people again. And Lin Xuan didn't know that he had inadvertently caused these bandits to almost fight among themselves, and his influence was really overwhelming.
After two days of meticulous treatment, Shangguan Tianfang's injuries have healed a lot. Lin Xuan also deliberately gave her some precious pills with special effects to eat, so that her body recovered faster, and even became stronger than before the injury. After all, Lin Xu's elixirs were all refined with some rare and precious spirit herbs, which were difficult for even ordinary monks to obtain, let alone ordinary people like Shangguan Tianfang.
Now that Shangguan Tianfang has been treated locally by Lin Xu, it is indeed a great luck, and it can be regarded as a blessing in disguise. If she takes the pill given by Lin Xu, she will definitely find obvious changes in her body in the future, and even her mental state will also change, and she will no longer be as lonely and weak as before, full of sorrow.
Lin Xuan saw that Shangguan Tianfang's injuries were no longer serious, so he came to ask her for some information about the whereabouts of the bandits. Although the spies sent by Lin Xu have been able to determine that the bandits have left the village after the last robbery, they are not near the village at all. But where their nest is, the spies have not yet gotten a definite result.
Therefore, Lin Xu thought of coming to ask Shangguan Tianfang. Maybe Shangguan Tianfang knows some useful information. Since Shangguan Tianfang's injuries were almost healed, Lin Xuan didn't want to give up any chance that he might have access to the whereabouts of the bandits.
Walking to the place where Shangguan Tianfang was placed, Lin Xuan saw that Shangguan Tianfang had been able to get out of bed and was walking slowly in the yard, consciously strengthening his exercise to make himself recover faster.
"Miss Shangguan, how are your injuries doing?" Lin Xuan asked with concern as soon as he saw Shangguan Tianfang. Although he came this time for another purpose, not just concerned about Shangguan Tianfang's injury, the first concern he wanted to express should be Shangguan Tianfang, instead of only investigating the whereabouts of the bandits, as if he was using Shangguan Tianfang as bait. Otherwise, he might cause Shangguan Tianfang's misunderstanding.
"Brother Lin, I'm much better, thank you. Shangguan Tianfang smiled and expressed his gratitude to Lin Xu.
"You're welcome, it's all a gesture, no thanks. Lin said with a smile.
"Brother Lin, you must have given me such expensive medicine, or my injuries wouldn't have healed so quickly. Shangguan Tianfang asked Lin Xuan with a guess. I have to say, she is very smart and has guessed correctly. The pills she had used in the past two days were very rare, and they were naturally extremely precious.
But in order to keep Shangguan Tianfang from having too much psychological burden, Lin Xuan denied it, shook his head deliberately, and deceived Shangguan Tianfang with good intentions: "I just gave you medicine very targeted, it's not very expensive, you don't have to worry too much about it at all." I have come to you today because I have something else to inquire about. ”
In order to prevent Shangguan Tianfang from getting entangled in the matter of the healing pill, so as to reduce her psychological burden a little, Lin Xu deliberately changed the topic cleverly, and at the same time, he also began to realize his real purpose of coming to Shangguan Tianfang.
"Brother Lin, you're here to inquire with me about the whereabouts of those bandits, right?" Shangguan Tianfang guessed accurately, and said what Lin Xu's mind was.
"Yes, Miss Shangguan, you are too smart. Lin Xuan couldn't help but smile and praise Shangguan Tianfang. He just likes to deal with such smart people. He only needs to say half of it, so that the other person can know what his other half means.
"Okay, Brother Lin, I'll tell you everything I know, I hope it will be of some use to you. Shangguan Tianfang nodded, and told Lin Xuan all the information he knew about the bandits in detail and specifically.
However, Shangguan Tianfang couldn't tell where the thieves' nest was. She only knew that the number of bandits was about fifteen or sixteen, and every time they entered the village and succeeded in robbing, they all fled in the direction of Qingxian Peak. Based on this, Shangguan Tianfang deduced that those bandits should be living under Qingxian Peak. Because everyone who lives on the Gobi Desert knows the danger on Qingxian Peak, it is impossible for humans to live on the mountain peak, so they can only live under the mountain peak.
In addition to He Shubiao, who wanted to snatch Guan Tianfang two days ago, Shangguan Tianfang also knew that the leader of that group of bandits was named Meng Xiye, and he was a fierce character who had killed several people in the village.
When Lin Xuan heard this, he couldn't help but be even more angry. It turns out that these bandits are not only robbing things, but also doing murder and arson. Then his original plan to catch the bandit and then hand it over to the government for handling was completely unnecessary. He might as well kill all those bandits directly, which would save some trouble.
After all, those thieves have murder cases, even if Lin Xuan kills them, then they are not wronged. Since you come out to mix and do this kind of stealing, sooner or later you will have to pay it with your life.
After Shangguan Tianfang told Lin Xuan everything he knew, he asked in a low voice, "Brother Lin, are you going to set off to catch the thief?"
"Yes, I'm ready to set off, and I must settle this matter before the Beast Control Empire and the Red Empire come to invade. Lin Xuan nodded, and replied to Shangguan Tianfang without concealment, and at the same time, he also directly said the further plan in his heart, and said: "If they are captured, I can still let them live, if they dare to resist, then I will not spare them, and I will directly take their lives." It's more straightforward and doesn't have to worry about it at all. ”
"Brother Lin, those bandits have done a lot of evil, and they are innocent of death. If you kill them all, I and the villagers will be grateful to you. Shangguan Tianfang said to Lin Xu very sincerely.
"Hehe, it's my responsibility to keep one side safe. From now on, I will protect you from bullying and do my duty. Lin Xuan was a little embarrassed by Shangguan Tianfang's praise.
"My wounds are healed, so I'll go with you to kill the bandits. Shangguan Tianfang made a request to Lin Xu.
When Lin Xuan heard this, he shook his head without hesitation, waved his hand, and refused Shangguan Tianfang to say, "This is not good. It's too dangerous, you're a girl, I can't let you go on an adventure. ”
"I can show you the way. I'm very familiar with the area around Qingxian Peak, and I promise that I won't let you get lost. Shangguan Tianfang still didn't give up, and wanted to persuade Lin Xu, so as to show that he was not useless, at least he could help a little. But she didn't expect that Lin Xuan didn't even need her help with this little help, and he already had a better way.
