According to Ye Muchun's introduction, the main reason for the trouble of the bandits in Jiuling Mountain is jungle warfare, and there are two other factors that are Lang Xiao's martial arts and the exact location of the bandits' nest.

Lang Xiao's martial arts, unrivaled in ten miles and eight towns, should be the root of his evil everywhere, and the strength of the bandits, but also make their evil deeds more arrogant, every time they go down the mountain to do evil, they are only half of the number of mountain bandits, that is, nearly 100 bandits, few people, but fast and flexible, every time they go down the mountain they have to run rampant for several days before stopping.

The government has also sent hundreds of people to encircle and suppress the mountain bandits who went down the mountain, but because they are well-informed, the mountain bandits can always easily avoid the officers and soldiers, and play the chase game with the officers and soldiers in the range of ten miles and eight townships, of course, there are also encounters, there are two or three times, nearly 500 officers and soldiers surrounded more than 80 bandits, but the crowd is outnumbered, every time they encounter, it is the officers and soldiers who suffer heavy losses, and Lang Xiao's mountain bandits are all unharmed and retreated, so now, if there are mountain bandits who go down the mountain to do evil, the officers and soldiers are to avoid the mountain bandits.

Of course, the government could not easily give up and organized two uphill bandits to suppress the bandits, 800 Yu Qian's people, but encountered jungle warfare, many traps made the officers and soldiers unguardable, 200 bandits turned out to be the effect of creating thousands of people, the two encirclement and suppression were the defeat of the officers and soldiers, but what really made the officers and soldiers give up was that they couldn't find the nest of the Eagle Owl Gate at all, and they just went around in circles in the forest for a long time to let the mountain bandits lead the nose.

Therefore, it is very difficult to mobilize the strength of officers and men at present, and they are only reported to each other, and they are not willing to send a single soldier unless they have a special grasp.

After hearing this, Concubine Shan Xun also scratched her head very much: "If the mountain bandits can avoid the officers and soldiers when they travel, except for the secret agents, that is, there are people who report the news, so they can go around in circles with the officers and soldiers in the range of ten miles and eight townships, but it is also understandable, there are so many people in such a large area under the mountain, it is not surprising that there are a few scum who are greedy for life and afraid of death, so the news that we should break the Miao Draw Bow has now also spread to the Eagle Owl Gate." ”

Ye Muchun felt a little guilty: "I should know everything about it, it's all because Ye is incompetent, Miao Fan, a villager watching under the ring today, should be the one who leaked the news of the traitor in this village, and it can be said that he has not reported to the mountain bandits." ”

Xi Ting couldn't figure it out: "Senior Ye, what you said, since you know which one is a traitor in the village, why don't you punish it severely according to the village rules, and let him report the news." ”

Ye Muchun sighed, bowed his head and said unspeakably, Miao Cao took over: "This sister doesn't know, my Brother Miao Fan is also an honest and kind person, and the living conditions are almost there, there is only one father who is not in good health in the family without a wife and mother, but now, Father Miao was kidnapped by the mountain bandits, and Brother Fan is very filial, and he was threatened by the mountain bandits before betraying the villagers." ”

Concubine Shan Xun waved her hand: "This is a bad word, this is selfish interests, no matter what the circumstances, it cannot be a reason for betrayal, for the sake of Father Miao, betray the entire village, and you are also open to him, this should be said to be a bit of a right and wrong." ”

Ye Muchun's righteous son Miao Meng hurriedly explained: " Shan Daxia doesn't know, like Miao Lao's father, there are more than a dozen people who have been plundered by mountain bandits in our East Meadow, and there are also people in other villages who have been plundered, it should be said that there are not a few people like Miao Fan, and they also hate the mountain bandits, so they not only report to the mountain bandits, but also report to the people in the village so that the villagers can be prepared, like this Miao Fan, he runs outside the village every day to observe the movements of the bandits, and as soon as he finds the movement of the bandits, he goes back to the village to report the news, which is also no way Miao Fan has no choice, and Miao Dad is in the village, and he is also a good man who has helped many people, so his family is so poor。 “

"That's it," Shan Xunfei pondered for a moment: "I would like to meet this Miao Fan, he should know more." ”

After a while, Miao Fan was led in front of everyone, he was indeed an honest face, and he made people feel very sloppy, always leaning forward at forty-five degrees, and his eyes did not dare to open the corners of his mouth and turn down, as if he had just cried.

"Are you Miao Fan? Shan Xunfei looked at the other party.

Miao Fan nodded again and again: "I'm guilty, I'm sorry for the villagers, I shouldn't tell the mountain bandits about the situation in the village, I can't live with the villagers." ”

Ye Muchun sighed: "Okay, Miao Fan, if you have anything to say, just say it." ”

Miao Fan still nodded: "Ah yes, Touren, your duck is so fat, and foie gras, I should go to see my father, I haven't heard from him for a long time." ”

Miao Cao nodded: "Don't worry, Brother Fan, I left some for you and went to the kitchen later, go get some and call a few of you, and send them to Father Miao." ”

Xi Ting was a little puzzled: "What is the situation, can he go to the mountain bandits' lair." ”

Miao Fan hurriedly explained: "If you can't go, you can only be in the dense forest, please ask the mountain bandits to bring it." ”

Concubine Shan Xun shook her head: "You asked the mountain bandits to send food, didn't you take the meat and let the wolf run errands, and the fat duck foie gras ate it in your father's mouth." ”

Miao Fan had a bitter look on his face: "I don't dare not send it, they say that my father often starves in the mountain prison, I am afraid that if I don't honor the mountain bandits, my father will not have a good life." ”

Xi Ting sighed: "Hey, it's really a filial son, it's also very sad, willing to be deceived but unable to do anything." ”

Miao Fan wanted to cry without tears: "I'm not filial, I can't take my father's place in prison, it's really incompetent." ”

Shan Xunfei is also a little unbearable:" Forget it, don't blame yourself too much, who can control the evil of the mountain bandits, the honest farmers will only farm and raise ducks, I'm afraid they won't fight back if they beat you, it's not wrong that people are different from each other, it's just that some wicked people always love to oppress the good, I ask you, how much do you know about the Eagle Gate, and how much do they know about the East Meadow, like today's Ye seniors are trying the bow, they should know why they didn't come to make trouble, that Lang Xiao, didn't he take a fancy to the grass girl, how can he bear the grass to choose a son-in-law with a bow. ”

Miao Fan's answer was very serious: "Well, the mountain bandits know almost everything about the East Meadow, they know that the Yetou people are choosing a son-in-law, and they also know that a few of you will come, Lang Xiao is indeed greedy for the beauty of Cao'er's sister, but why didn't he come to make trouble, I don't know much about this, and I don't know much about the mountain bandits, I only know that there is a prison in their bandit village, and there are many hostages in it, and the location is in the Lost Trail Ridge." ”

can see Miao Fan's sincerity, he should also hope that his family will be saved as soon as possible, Concubine Shan Xun nodded: "Lost Trace Ridge, this is the reason why I can't find the bandit's nest, is this Lost Trace Ridge big." ”

Ye Muchun hurriedly took over the words: "It's not just big, there are countless caves, large and small, you can see and can't see the live holes and dead holes, so it's called Lost Trail Ridge, sometimes hunters will get lost in it, there is no road at all, some people say that the holes in Lost Trail Ridge are as many as the birds in Jiuling Mountain." ”

Shan Xunfei was also a little difficult: "Then to say this, it's really difficult to do, I only know that this Jiuling Mountain is the kingdom of birds, there are thousands of varieties, I can't imagine that there is such a ridge, the mountain is steep and it doesn't matter, the mountain is high and the forest is dense, but there are countless caves, and this ambush is really difficult to deal with." ”

Ye Muchun was also worried: "So it's called Lost Trail Ridge, although it is impossible to have nearly a thousand caves, there are still dozens of them, the big ones should be more than a dozen of them, they can accommodate hundreds of people, and the small ones are countless, and some of them are actually a rock crevice, which should also be able to hide people, so it is not easy to destroy the Eagle Owl Gate, even our local residents have to get lost inside." ”

When Miao Fan heard this, he hurriedly threw himself on his knees and fell to the ground: "Please don't be discouraged by the leader and this hero, you must find a way to exterminate the mountain bandits and save your father, Miao Fan will repay the two benefactors even if he is a cow and a horse, please think of a way." ”

Concubine Shan Xun hurriedly stood up: "Hey, what are you doing, get up and talk quickly, I didn't say no, I just have to think of a way to design and design, hey, it really seems that you are a traitor, it is really excusable, rest assured, when you are going to suppress the bandits, you will rush to the first one, and let you rescue your father with your own hands, you see if this is good." ”

Originally, Miao Fan wanted to get up, but when he heard this, he quickly knelt down and clasped his fists with both hands: "Please forgive Shan Daxia, this bandit, I won't go, and I will also stop other family members who have hostages on the mountain, let them not go, we will pray for you at home." ”

Xi Ting was a little puzzled: "Hey, you're inexplicable, why don't you want to rescue your family with your own hands." ”

Miao Fan sneered: "I have already seen that there is no hope of saving people, and it is useless for me to lose it." ”

Gao Fan finally spoke, and slapped the table first: "What do you mean, do you mean that I don't have that ability?" ”

Miao Fan slowly stood up: "No, your hands are very good, I have seen Lang Xiao killed and burned down the Eagle Owl Village, but if we have hostages on the mountain, if the family members of the hostages on the mountain go, the bandits will inevitably take out the hostages as a threat, family affection and filial piety can not disrespect us, and we will definitely become the resistance of your heroes, and become the person who drags your feet, we don't go, you don't know those hostages, you can definitely let go of your hands and feet to defeat the stubborn enemy." ”

Ye Muchun nodded: "His feeling is very accurate, and generally what he can foresee will become a fact." ”

Xi Ting praised very much: "So that's the case, I'd rather worry at home than be a drag, so do you think that we are ruthless people just because we don't know each other, we can watch innocent people die." ”

At this moment, Miao Fan's expression was very indifferent and calm: "You must be ruthless, in order to eradicate the bandits, for the East Meadow, for the ten miles and eight towns under the Jiuling Mountain, you can't bow to the evil forces." ”

Qin Zhenzhen couldn't help it: "How do I feel, it's so cold, aren't you afraid of your family, because of our intransigence." ”

Miao Fan was expressionless: "The family is the small self, the village is the big self, you can be unfilial, you can't be unrighteous, justice is not for compromise." ”

Concubine Shan Xun looked Miao Fan up and down: " Where is this like a common man, he speaks loudly, and the previous weakness is very different, it should be forbearing, it really makes me look at it differently, you can rest assured that I will help with this favor, it should be said that it is a headache to suppress the bandits, it is inevitable that there will be sacrifices, I am only afraid of the people we help, and I can't understand us, so since you said so, I will try my best to save the hostages, at first I thought that I could find the bandits' nest by using Gao Fan and Du Yu's tracking skills, but now, I really want to fight with the mountain bandits, and that Lang Xiao outside the mountain, it is this East Meadow that led them here, Ye senior, they didn't come to the ring today, seniors know why。 “

Ye Muchun shook his head: "I really don't understand, in fact, when I was in the ring, I was always worried that they would suddenly appear, Lang Xiao was very arrogant and didn't come for some reason." ”

Concubine Shan Xun sighed: "Then we will play the show and get married tomorrow." ”
