Liu Wenzheng, the county magistrate, hurriedly ran into the study, and said in a cold sweat, "You really want to exterminate the bandits?"

"That's right."

Qin Fan smiled slightly.

Liu Wenzheng wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead and said in a low voice, "This is not a joke."

"Lord Liu."

Qin Fan stroked the teacup lightly and said in a calm tone, "Are you scared?"

"No, no, no."

Liu Wenzheng waved his hand again and again and said, "The humble position is just worried, the adults are young, if something goes wrong, Your Majesty will blame it, and the humble position can't afford it."

"I know it in my heart."

Qin Fan said: "Besides, as an official of the imperial court, when I encounter a fierce gangster, I naturally have to come forward."

Liu Wenzheng pondered for a moment, gritted his teeth and said, "I am willing to follow the lord."

"Hahaha."

Qin Fan patted Liu Wenzheng on the shoulder and said boldly, "Since this is the case, we will act tonight."

Liu Wenzheng said with a solemn expression: "My lord, those gangsters are ruthless, you must not take it lightly."

"Don't worry."

Qin Fan smiled faintly and said, "I'm fully prepared."

"Okay."

Liu Wenzheng took a deep breath and said, "As long as the adults are in need, it is incumbent on them to be humble."

Qin Fan smiled slightly, then picked up the official letter on the table and said, "Is the official document that Lord Lin asked you to write, is it ready?"

Liu Wenzheng nodded and said, "It's been prepared for a long time."

Qin Fan unsealed the official letter and read it carefully.

"Your Excellency."

"This recital must be presented to the palace for His Majesty to adjudicate, and he does not dare to be arrogant."

Qin Fan was slightly silent and said, "That's it. After you have prepared the official document, you will submit it directly to Your Majesty, and I will discuss the rest with Your Majesty personally."

"This."

Liu Wenzheng said: "I am afraid that my humble position will ruin the great plans of adults."

"No problem, just do what I say."

It can be seen that Qin Fan is very persistent, but Liu Wenzheng is still worried, and hesitates: "My lord, this matter. Do you want to discuss it with your wife?"

Qin Fan raised his eyebrows and said, "If she doesn't support me, will I back down?"

"Obligation, understood."

Liu Wenzheng received the order and immediately went to work.

It didn't take long for him to come to the study with a stack of official documents and respectfully said, "My lord, this is an official document."

Qin Fan nodded and said, "I'll take a look, you can record it next to you."

"Obedience."

Liu Wenzheng replied.

He knew that if he dared to perfunctory Qin Fan, he would definitely not have any good fruit to eat, so he was extra cooperative.

Night falls.

Qin Fan finished flipping through the official documents, raised his head to look at Li Yuanyang, who was standing by the window in a daze, and asked, "What are you doing?"

"I'm wondering where these murderers come from."

Li Yuanyang muttered, then turned his head to look at Qin Fan and said, "Lord Qin, do you think they look like bandits?"

Qin Fan shook his head and said, "On the surface, it's more like an outlaw."

Speaking of this, he suddenly thought of something, and a strange expression appeared on his face, and he secretly thought.

"Could it be, they're coming for Lao Tzu, right?"

As soon as this thought arose, the voice of the system sounded in my head: Ding, congratulations to the host for triggering the hidden quest "Killing Maniac", do you accept it?

"Accept."

Qin Fan made a choice without hesitation.

Bite.

【Mission Details】

Task content: Destroy all the bandits in the cottage, reward 10 points, 10 achievement points, and 100 points.

If the mission fails, 500 chivalrous points will be deducted.

"."

Qin Fan couldn't help but burst into a foul mouth, "This mission is too perverted."

"Ding."

"Congratulations to the host, 5 Chivalry points."

The voice of the system came slowly.

The corners of Qin Fan's mouth twitched a few times, and he continued to check the content of the task.

The content of the mission is simple and easy to understand, and it is not particularly difficult, as long as you capture a hundred murderers, you can complete the mission.

As for capturing it alive, it takes some time and is more troublesome.

"Five hundred murderers." Qin Fan rubbed his temples, quite painful.

There were a total of 263 bandits in the cottage, plus the two bandit leaders, enough to organize 400 people.

It's not easy to catch them.

"What should I do?"

Qin Fan held his chin, and after pondering for a long time, his eyes suddenly lit up, revealing a sinister expression.

"In that case, let's start with the little minions and slowly eat away at their power."

Early the next morning.

Qin Fan, Liu Wenzheng, and Wang Tiehammer rode out of the mansion and headed towards the western suburbs.

Along the way, Liu Wenzheng had a sad face.

Last night's interrogation lasted all night, and still nothing was found.

Not only did they not find those bandits, but they didn't even know what the other party looked like, which was really annoying.

Qin Fan sat in the carriage, his eyes flashing.

Although he is not a person in the rivers and lakes, he has been in the rivers and lakes for half his life, and under the influence of his ears and eyes, he has long practiced a skill of insight.

The origin of these bandits is likely to be inseparable from that big brother.

The top priority is to catch the eldest brother as soon as possible, and as for the specific situation of the bandits, we will talk about it after the eldest brother is captured.

Western suburbs.

Two carriages quietly drove in, then slowly stopped.

Qin Fan jumped out of the carriage first, and after looking at the surroundings for a moment, he walked over.

There was a knock on the door.

A moment later, the door opened, and the big fat man's head poked out, and he shouted sleepily, ", why are you here again?"

"Bang."

Qin Fan kicked the big fat man and said coldly, "Get in."

"You."

Zhang Da Fat's eyes widened, and he said in horror, "I'm telling you, we are enemies, you can't mess around."

Qin Fan said, "I have something to ask you."

"Hmph." The big fat man snorted coldly, turned around and went into the house.

Qin Fan closed the door and came in, sat on a chair and said, "Have you seen that group of bandits recently?"

"Nope."

The big fat man pouted and said, "I only go out to rob every once in a while."

"Oh."

"Do you know where they went?"

"How can you ask such a thing?"

"Hmm."

"You've cracked the case."

"Okay."

Zhang Da Fat ran out.

The big fat man came to Qin Fan again, and said bitterly, "Lord Qin, I still haven't asked anything."

Qin Fan sighed and said, "Go and ask the villagers again."

"Hey."

The big fat man sighed, and then left.

In the evening.

The big fat man returned with a full load, and his face was extremely embarrassed and said, "Lord Qin, I asked again. Those bandits have been running out of the city a lot lately."

"Out of town?"

Qin Fan frowned, secretly speculating, "Could it be that they are going to Nanling City?"

Nanling City is the capital of the Tang Dynasty, not far from here, about seven or eight miles.

If that gang of bandits really went to Nanling City, they must have done so to make huge profits, or to assassinate the emperor.

"Looks like we've hit a hard stubble this time." Qin Fan exhaled lightly.

Although he did not want to provoke the royal family, he would never allow that gang of bandits to endanger his hometown.
