The night soaked the entire wilderness, and inside and outside the dirt slope, there were many corpses of bandits who had been killed. The battalion soldiers who arrived later blocked the way of retreat, and more than 400 old bandits, as long as they gathered, at least more than 200 people died on the spot.

Tai Shiqing was covered in blood, holding a knife in one hand and the disclosure of the thief chief Wei Shou in the other, looking up to the sky and roaring. Even Xing Xiaojiu, he also handed over four or five bandit horses and ran back with cheers.

Chen Jing walked down the dirt slope, different from Xing Xiaojiu, his face was full of calmness.

"You're the little proprietor?" A general in armor dismounted and walked towards Chen Jing with a frown. Behind the general, there were more than a dozen guards.

Chen Jing guessed that when Tai Shiqing was going downhill, he had already greeted the battalion army.

"General, it's down there." Chen Jing took out the notarization of the business name, "I came to Luzhou to sell goods before, and I was spied on by this group of bandits. If the general hadn't arrived with someone, we would have died here. ”

The general took the notarization, looked at it, hesitated and spoke, "In addition to the bandits, have you seen other suspicious people?" ”

"No, I've been hiding and hiding."

The general smiled again, "It's okay, you will leave first." By the way, the captured bandit horses and the heads of the killed people are not to be taken away, and I will take them back to the register. ”

Chen Jing sighed in his heart. This huge military exploit has nothing to do with him.

"Hehe, this horse race, the little owner has made a lot of money." The general suddenly added, holding the lance in one hand and wiping the blood from the spear with the corner of his robe. His eyes lifted, and killing intent vaguely oozes.

The night is dark and the wind is high, and the murderer is nameless. What's more, there are bandit corpses all around here, and it's normal to have more than a few.

"I've earned some money, and I'm leaving it with my cousin for the time being."

"Cousin?"

"The public office of Qu County catches the head."

"What's the last name?"

"The surname is Li, and there is a mole under the nose."

The general was silent for a moment, then nodded, "In that case, you will leave first." I'll take care of the aftermath. ”

"Thank you, General, for your rescue."

"Please go."

After the general rode his horse and turned around, Chen Jingcai exhaled, quickly gathered people, rode his horse, and left the vicinity of the dirt slope after saying goodbye from afar.

……

"He is probably red-eyed, if you show your wealth just now, you will die." Tai Shiqing gritted his teeth, "Fortunately, you are in a hurry and talked about the head catcher in Qu County." ”

The bottom of Chen Jing's heart also has a complex meaning. The world collapsed, bandits were like combs, soldiers were like grates, and the ancients did not deceive me.

"Brother Chen, you should understand why Mr. Big wants to reform and change the law. In this world, he is terminally ill, and what he lacks is a good medicine for Mr. Big. ”

"I understand."

Chen Jing is no stranger to the reform of the law. Throughout the ages, I don't know how many great sages, in order to save the society from danger, help the building to fall into the general, and do not hesitate to throw their heads and spill their blood.

"Brother Chen...... Come with me. As long as Mr. Big succeeds in changing the law, you and I will not be able to become the court's ministers. ”

Chen Jing was silent and shook his head.

He asked himself that it was not difficult to gain appreciation through the insights of later generations and all kinds of strange and ingenious schemes. But the difficulty is that he got on this ship, and there was no way to go ashore. Many times, he wants to control his own destiny in this world.

Seeing that Chen Jing didn't answer, Tai Shiqing laughed and said no more.

After a long run in the night, Chen Jing and his party returned to Quxian when it was almost dawn.

It was still the head catcher surnamed Li, who originally led people to patrol the night, and when he saw Chen Jing and these people, they all rushed back covered in blood, his face was shocked at first, and then became extremely surprised.

"Chen Dongjia!"

"Li catches the head, be polite."

"It's ...... Escaped? If this is the case, I advise the Chen Dongjia to go south as soon as possible, and be careful that the bandits will catch up again. ”

"Don't worry, the bandits have been dispersed." Chen Jing calmly continued to speak, "This time I passed by Qu County, thinking of collecting the account by the way. ”

Not only the head catcher, but also the more than a dozen officials next to him, looking at Chen Jing's line, they were all shocked. It's not that they don't know about the bandits, but in fact, the nearby battalions have been transferred, and with their quick catches, there is no way to suppress them. There are sixty or seventy miles away from the nearest checkpoint, and it may not be able to help.

"Chen Dongjia, this, this is true?"

"Nature is true. Li Zhutou, can I enter the city? ”

"Yes!"

Li Zhutou led people and drove the road in front, his face looking extremely excited.

"Open the city gate, open the city gate for Lao Tzu!"

A few county soldiers yawned and looked down the city.

"Open the city gate quickly, Lao Tzu is on the rise, and if you grind again, I'm going to use the knife!"

……

On the long street, Wu Fu trembled, not daring to look up. The group of people in front of him, each of them, clearly had a strong bloody aura. He was really afraid of being chopped off with a knife.

"Chen Dongjia, this is two thousand taels of silver owed......"

"It's not that I'm mistaken, I remember it's three thousand taels. Xiao Jiu, look for the documents that are in arrears. Chen Jing grimaced and sat down on the stone stairs on the side of the street.

Xing Xiaojiu just turned around, and somehow, the blood-stained treasure knife in his hand suddenly fell to the ground.

"Xiao Jiu, how many bandit leaders have you killed? At this moment, my legs were weak. ”

"The owner, kill thirteen bandits. When I cut it off, the head was gone, and the blood came out of my neck all at once. Whoever provokes me in the future, I will still cut like this! ”

"Don't look for it, don't look for it." Wu Fu hurriedly spoke, touched another silver ticket from his arms, collected a total of three thousand taels, and handed it to Chen Jing's hand.

"Li Zhutou is here, let me ask one more question, do you really remember clearly?" Chen Jing put away the silver ticket and smiled faintly.

"Remember, remember."

"I'm not young anymore, I have a family and a room, but I just want to be a learner. Next time, I'll go straight to your house to ask for it. ”

Chen Jing turned around, leaving Wu Fu, who was paralyzed on the street, still clutching his chest in pain.

"Chen Dongjia, otherwise, stay in the city for one more day, and it is better to rest."

"No, the matter of the bandits has dragged on for time, and I have to rush out to pay the money for the collection. Li Zhutou, you and I will say goodbye. ”

"Get on the horse!"

On the streets, as the morning light became thicker and thicker, there were gradually more people. Many pedestrians were trembling, looking at these caravan men in front of them, whose bodies were stained with blood.

"Out of town."

Chen Jing rode on his horse and let out a long breath. No matter what, the path he took will eventually become more exciting.
