Headless Mountain is not one mountain, but three mountains, looking at it from a distance, it is a mountain that has a body, has hands, and only loses a head, so it is called Headless Mountain when it is unified.

Gangneung is already mountainous, but not very big, but these three mountains together seem very large, and the terrain above is also more complicated, so the people on the mountain do not come down, and the people under the mountain do not have the courage to go up, so they can only shout a few times at the bottom of the mountain after farming, calling the people on the mountain to go home and farm.

"What did the twelve people who came down the mountain say?"

"They said that the others were unwilling to come down, and they suspected that the county government was a liar, in order to deceive them and then catch them all," Duan Ji said with some indignation, "It's just nonsense, there are a lot of mountain bandits from other villages who have come back from Congliang, when did our county government feel sorry for them?" ”

Han Mu also nodded, "Yes, is this official the kind of person whose words don't count?" Is it because they refuse to go down the mountain because they have a lawsuit in their hands? ”

Han Mu issued a decree to persuade the bandits to go down the mountain, and said that he was not to blame in the past, but if there was a heinous crime, as long as someone sued, he still had to enforce the law impartially, and this was also known to the counties from the beginning.

With so many people not going down the mountain, Han Mu's first thought was that they had killed people, so they didn't dare to go down the mountain.

Gu Junruo also considered this, she said: "If this is the case, then we can only wait for the bandits to be suppressed after they settle down." ”

Han Mu rolled his eyes and said, "Let Jiang Xin come to suppress the bandits, my face will be lost, otherwise I will kill it." ”

Gu Junruo: "What are you doing to suppress bandits, a servant?" ”

Duan Jishi immediately lowered his head, trying to shrink his sense of existence, and prayed that Han Mu would not see him.

When Ding Si and Changgui on the side heard this, they hurriedly said: "My lord, it's okay for our servants to arrest thieves, but it's not okay to suppress bandits." ”

"yes, yes, why don't you ask the garrison to help."

Han Mu glanced at them with disgust, "Isn't that me, I'm a good general!" ”

"It's not that I'm hitting you, but," Gu Junruo asked after looking him up and down, "Have you ever fought?" ”

Han Mu choked and said, "I've fought in groups!" ”

He Ziyou hurriedly stopped between the two of them and said: "Okay, okay, even if you want to suppress the bandits, it can't be decided tonight, we are such a few people, we can't go now, don't you have to go back to the county government to discuss it in the long run?" ”

He pulled Han Mu and persuaded in a low voice: "What my brother and sister said is also good, you have never led a soldier or fought a war, and the bandits are in the mountains again, you are not familiar with the terrain, what if something happens?" ”

"Can this group fight be the same as a war?" He Ziyou said: "If you want me to say, you will go back to Jiang Xin to ask for soldiers, he will naturally give it, it is better not to give it, you will sue the emperor, and then the capital will let Jiang Xin go to suppress the bandits by himself." ”

Han Mu didn't say anything, but looked at the direction of Headless Mountain and was quite unconvinced.

After the fish soup was boiled, Gu Junruo gave him a bowl of soup, "Don't look at it, what can you see in the dark?" ”

Han Mu took it, but he didn't drink it, but glanced at the jar, "I won't eat it, you can eat it quickly." ”

Gu Junruo said: "There are still in the jar." ”

Han Mu had already given her the soup, and then he took out a few pieces of fish meat from the jar, picked out the fish bones and put them in his bowl.

But he wasn't very patient, and kept saying, "What kind of fish is this, why are there so many bones?" ”

Gu Junruo looked at it and smiled, but he didn't stop it, he picked it up, and she ate it when he picked it out.

Seeing that she was eating well, Han Mu, who only wanted to pick two pieces of fish meat for her, continued to pick fish bones for her while breaking her thoughts.

He Ziyou sat aside with a bowl and was speechless in shock, who could believe that this was the first gentleman in the capital?

Gu Junruo had a good appetite, drank two bowls of fish soup, ate a lot of fish, and had a rare good night's sleep.

Han Mu couldn't sleep peacefully, it was too close to Headless Mountain.

As soon as the morning dawned, he looked in the direction of Headless Mountain, although he was about to move, but after glancing at Gu Junruo and He Ziyou, he still decided to take a detour.

If he was alone, he would naturally not be afraid, and he could have swaggered past the foot of Headless Mountain, but with Gu Junruo and He Ziyou, he decided to be safer.

"You take a detour to go back."

Gu Junruo frowned: "We? ”

"That's right," Han Mu said, "I'll take Xiaobei to explore Headless Mountain." ”

Gu Junruo pursed his lips, "Do you think we're dragging you down?" ”

"You don't know kung fu, it's useless to go, in case you really meet bandits, I still have to take care of you, it's best for me and Xiaobei to go."

He Ziyou immediately raised his hand and asked, "Why do you have to go to investigate now, when we go back to the county office, can't we bring enough people to investigate again?" And they all said that they would wait for Jiang Xin to send troops......"

"Ziyou," Han Mu said with a serious face: "I am the county commander of Yi County, it is impossible to ignore it knowing that there is such a big bandit den on the mountain." ”

"Pin your hopes on others, I won't do such a thing at the age of twelve," Letting Jiang Xin send troops to suppress bandits was just a ploy, but he also had to do what a county order should do, "I'm here, if I don't take a look, I'm really sorry for my reputation as the first county order in the world." ”

Gu Junruo choked on saliva: "The first county order in the world? ”

"Yes, haven't you heard the people praise me like that?" Han Mu coughed lightly and said, "Although it is a bit exaggerated, since I have enjoyed the good name, I have to implement the name, and I don't play false." ”

Gu Junruo looked into his eyes and asked, "Are you serious?" ”

Han Mu nodded, "Of course." ”

"Then we'll go with you."

Han Mu was about to object, but Gu Junruo took the first step and said: "I know, you don't want us to be in danger, you are strong in martial arts, and you feel that you can get away alone, right?" ”

"That's right."

"But have you ever thought that you went up the mountain, but what if the bandits on the mountain don't come out?"

"Huh?"

Gu Junruo said: "Headless Mountain is so big, how can you be sure that after you and Xiaobei go up the mountain, they will appear?" And do you know where their bandit den is built? ”

Han Mu scratched his head.

Gu Junruo said: "Let's go, go to the village for a walk, and ask the twelve people who came down the mountain." ”

She said: "It's always safe to go into the village and ask the villagers for news if you don't reach the foot of the headless mountain, right?" ”

With that, she turned and left.

He Ziyou glanced at Han Mu, who was speechless, and laughed out loud.

Han Mu glared at him, and He Ziyou noticed the dark circles under his eyes, and said happily: "This can't be the way you stayed up all night to come up with, right?" ”

"Why are you so stupid, even I know that it would be good to ask those twelve people if you want to know the situation of the bandits' den, you actually thought that you would risk going up the mountain yourself."

"You know, why didn't you just say that?"

He Ziyou paused for a moment and said, "What you said is awe-inspiring, I didn't think about it for a while. ”

He put his hand on Han Mu's shoulder and whispered: "But in the future, this kind of brain-wielding thing will be handed over to my younger brothers and sisters, you don't have to think about it too much, look at the dark circles under your eyes, how big they are." ”
