Hearing Mr. Bai's words, a group of people in the prison raised their faces to look at him in surprise.

Several officials hurriedly stood up, grasping the iron rails of the cell with both hands, their faces full of disbelief.

"What do you say? You're going to help us escape? Aren't you one of the bandits? ”

The others also looked at Mr. Bai suspiciously, curiously waiting for his answer.

The old man of the Zuo family was shrewd, and said directly: "Mr. Bai, I'm afraid there is something we need to do, right?" ”

I saw that Mr. Bai looked around left and right again, and then looked at the old man of the Zuo family with appreciation, nodded, and said in a cautious whisper: "This old man is right, I don't hide it, I do have one thing that you need to do, before that, I can tell you my details,

In fact, I was arranged here by the Qingzhou prefect to do a detailed job, just to catch all these evil mountain bandits.

This mountain bandit has occupied our Qingzhou mountain for nearly five years, but they have not been able to arrest them for a long time, and they are the most troublesome bandits in the entire Qinzhou.

The prefect sent troops several times to exterminate these bandits, but the whole mountain is their territory, this mountain has a unique advantage, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the prefect sent troops several times, but they were all defeated and returned,

Therefore, I was sent to infiltrate the bandits, draw the route of their mountain, and the formation of the troops, I have been stationed in this mountain bandit for two years, and now I have finally completed the task assigned to me by the prefect, but I have no opportunity to submit the road map and the formation to the prefect.

I didn't expect God to arrange you to this bandit cottage, while the king of the mountain went outside to dig gold mines, I will let you escape now, but you must promise me to hand over the route map and troop formation I gave you to the prefect, so that he can immediately raise troops and pay off these mountain bandits! ”

Hearing Mr. Bai's words, everyone in the prison was shocked.

I didn't expect this Mr. Bai to be sent by the prefect!

Looking at the long scar on his face, and the polite respect of the bearded leader, I thought he was the second leader among the bandits, but I didn't expect that he was actually a good person!

Wang Biao immediately stretched out his hand and nodded in agreement with Mr. Bai's explanation. "Don't worry, as long as you can let us out, we will definitely help you hand these two things into the hands of the prefect!"

Boss Zhang also nodded beside him: "Our next stop is to report to Qingzhou, and these two things can naturally be sent to the hands of the prefect." ”

Mr. Bai glanced at Wang Biao and Boss Zhang, and then looked around the exiled prisoners in prison clothes.

In the end, his eyes fell on Boss Zhang, who was wearing a dark official uniform, and handed him the two things: "I see that you are dressed differently from other officials, you should be the leader of this group of exiled prisoners, right?" I'll leave this letter to you. ”

A trace of hesitation flashed in Boss Zhang's eyes, and he finally took it: "Okay, if I can escape with these brothers and the exiled prisoners, I will definitely help you deliver this letter to the prefect of Qingzhou!" ”

"I wonder how Mr. Bai is going to help us escape?" Wang Biao couldn't wait to ask.

Mr. Bai pondered for a moment, and then asked, "How many of you are good at kung fu?" ”

Several men of the Su family immediately raised their hands: "A few of us will do it!" ”

Qin Ying and Old Madam Su also raised their hands: "I also have some fist and foot kung fu." ”

Several officers also patted their chests: "Those of us who are officials naturally have some kung fu. ”

Mr. Bai nodded, and then looked at the Liu family and the Zuo family: "Isn't there anyone here who knows kung fu?" ”

The Zuo family looked ashamed: "Our ancestors have been civil officials for three generations, and they have never practiced martial arts. ”

The Liu family looked flickering and said vaguely: "Our family just has some brute strength, if we say that we know kung fu, we can't talk about it." ”

They always felt that there must be nothing good for this Mr. Bai to ask this kind of question.

Although they have a little effort and brute strength, they don't want to admit it, and they are afraid of being assigned to do some hard and dangerous tasks.

Mr. Bai didn't know if he saw their intention to evade responsibility, and when he saw them, his eyes suddenly became more disdainful, and he directly arranged:

"It's okay to have a little brute force, when the time comes, you who have kung fu and strength will walk in the front and the back, and the old and weak women and children will walk in the middle.

I have arranged for the sentry to rest and avoid for the time being, but I can't guarantee that they will not find out that you have escaped, and once they are discovered, you still have to rely on yourself to find a way out.

If you succeed, you can escape, if you fail, I will try my best to help you around, depending on whether you have the courage to do so! ”

The people in the cell fell silent.

After a while, General Su suddenly asked, "Dare to ask Mr. Bai, if we are discovered, what are our chances of winning?" ”

When the others heard General Su ask, they all thought of this question, and stared at Mr. Bai tightly, waiting for his answer.

But seeing Mr. Bai sighing, "The odds are not great, once discovered, the bandits in the entire cottage will come to encircle and suppress, they are outnumbered, if there are no weapons, and you have weapons, maybe you can have a little chance of winning,

But the current situation is that all of these mountain bandits have big knives in their hands, and you can only use your bare hands, and there are few of them, and there are only a few people who can do kung fu.

So we're either going to be careful not to be noticed, or we're ready to be caught again. ”

Hearing Mr. Bai's analysis of reality, people who originally thought they could get out safely fell silent again.

Everyone knows very well in their hearts that even if Mr. Bai is dealing with them, if they escape and are captured by the bandits, they will definitely face even more inhuman torture.

But if you don't escape, you don't know how you will be treated by these mountain bandits.

The inmates in the cells began to struggle with difficult choices.

Some people advocate escaping, after all, there is a glimmer of life, and if you don't escape, then you can only be slaughtered.

Some people advocate not fleeing, believing that the risk of fleeing is too great, and if they are discovered, they will definitely die, and if they obediently wait in prison, maybe they will let them out when the mountain bandit leader finds out that they did not steal their things.

The two sides began to fight.

"The chances of escaping are not great, this cottage has many eyes, even if Mr. Bai has arranged for those sentry to leave, it will inevitably be seen by others, and we have no weapons, there is no way to resist their encirclement and suppression, when the time comes, we will still be arrested, why bother?"

"If you don't run away, will you just wait to die in this prison? The methods of the mountain bandit leader, we have all seen, is not a good kind, even if it is found out that we are not the one who stole his things, he will definitely not let us go! Instead of waiting for death, it is better to fight for your life! ”

The two sides quarreled, and Mr. Bai was not in a hurry, but sighed regretfully: "If we can give you all the weapons of those bandits, even if we are discovered, we can have at least half of the chance of winning, but it's a pity that ......"

He glanced at the official who had been scraped clean on his body, and sighed again: "Now that even your own weapons have been confiscated by the mountain bandits, what we can do is try not to be discovered." ”

Ying Bao heard their quarrel, and became impatient, so she quietly took out the weapons of the bandits from the space, and pointed to the corner with her little hand: "Father, father, mother, grandfather, grandmother, uncle and uncle, aren't there a lot of weapons here?" ”
