"A gust of wind for horse bandits - murder and robbery, heinous crime - the county magistrate sent troops to suppress the bandits - a complete victory-"

The group swaggered through the market. A soapman with a loud voice struck a gong and shouted. Soon, people gathered on both sides of the street. Everyone knew what was going on, pointing at the two carts of corpses. The passing vendors immediately cheered loudly, and some even wept with joy.

Chen Ao was very satisfied with this effect, and waved at everyone with a smile. In a three-story building facing the street, a tall figure was also standing in front of the window, looking at this pedestrian. Seeing Chen Aozhi's smug appearance, this person couldn't help but snort coldly.

The room was a little dim, and a heavy voice sounded in the dark: "I said a long time ago that I should have killed this Chen Ao earlier, but you just don't listen! Hmph, you know the trouble now, right?"

The man in front of the window turned around and said lightly: "He killed all useless guys, and it didn't affect me, what's the trouble?"

This person's voice is soft and soft, and she is actually a woman with all kinds of amorous feelings. She muttered, "Just wait a little longer, and we'll be done!"

The man in the room looked a little indignant, and said in a deep voice, "What are you going to do? Since we have chosen to cooperate, we must tell me, right?"

The woman sneered and said, "Are you mistaken? We are not cooperating! You just have no way to escape, so you just come to me!" She dropped this sentence, turned back to glared at Chen Ao on the street, and fell silent again.

Chen Ao returned all the way back to the county office, and saw Xu Minghua, the county clerk, and Wu Guozhong, the chief bookkeeper, standing at the door of the ya, looking at him dumbfounded. Chen Ao smiled: "Two, have you seen it?" I just said that this gust of wind is just a bunch of little thieves. Aren't we going to win a big battle!"

Xu Minghua asked, "My lord...... Wiped out all the gusts of wind?"

Chen Ao whispered: "Let's kill more than a dozen of them, and the rest will flee!"

"Huh?" Xu Minghua was stunned, his face depressed.

Wu Guozhong sighed and said, "My lord, this ...... What if these vicious people take revenge on us......? This and this ......"

Chen Ao waved his hand and said with a smile: "You guys think too much." If they still dare to come, I will tell them that they will never return!"

Then he instructed Xu Minghua to cut off the heads of the dozen or so corpses and hang them on the city wall. He also asked Master Wu to settle down the caravan and appease it well. After finishing all this, he took Xuanning and the three back to the backyard.

A few people went to the study first. Yun Lu and the others had already heard the news, and they brought clean water over and asked Xuanning and the three of them to wash off the blood stains on their faces. Chen Ao returned to the study, and the smile on his face gradually disappeared. He asked a few ladies to sit down and asked, "Zhao Ling, tell me about today's situation!"

Zhao Ling nodded and said, "In the past few days, we have been patrolling near the location of the last accident according to what we guessed before. However, I found that there were not many caravans coming and going in that place. It turned out that it had deviated from the official road, and the difference was about a few miles. It's just that because this official road has been in disrepair for a long time, if you are not a person who walks around a lot, it is really not easy to find it for a while. ”

Chen Ao nodded. Zhao Ling continued: "Today we were still walking around there, and we saw a group of people slowly walking over from a distance. As they passed through the woods, several arrows suddenly shot out of the woods, knocking the first few guards off their horses. Everything is in line with our previous assumptions. The horse bandits fired a round of arrows, taking advantage of the chaos of the caravan, and rushed out in a swarm. By the time we arrived, the bandits had already rushed into the crowd. So Feng Hu rushed in with his people and intercepted the horse bandits and killed!"

At this time, Xuan Ning excused himself: "Most of the horse bandits are not high in martial arts, but there are a few strange-looking people with extremely high martial arts, who are specially responsible for solving the bodyguard guard of the caravan!"

"Strange people?" Chen Ao said strangely, "Who are they?"

Xuan Ning shook his head and said, "We don't know either. Those people were obviously not from the Central Plains, some had blonde hair, and two were maroon. Their eyes aren't black either!"

Chen Ao was surprised: "Foreigners?

Zhao Ling said: "I think, they should be Hu people in the Western Regions." I just don't know why they came to us. ”

Chen Ao suddenly found this matter quite interesting, and said with a smile: "The Hu people of the Western Regions also know martial arts? Didn't I remember that our China is the birthplace of martial arts?"

Zhao Ling shook his head and said, "Who said that? We Han people have Han martial arts, and Khitan people also have Khitan martial arts." The Heavenly Wolf Skill of the Heavenly Wolf Sect like theirs is unique. There are also the ancient yoga skills of the Tianzhu Kingdom, and some weird magic skills in the Western Regions, all of which are very powerful!"

Xuan Ning said, "That's right. The martial arts of those Hu people are strange, but they are extremely powerful. I almost lost to Sister Apple!"

Chen Ao exclaimed in surprise and asked Long Qingping, "With your knowledge of martial arts, you haven't seen their martial arts?"

Long Qingping nodded and said, "I've never seen their martial arts like that. However, those people obviously didn't practice home, and they were defeated by me and Sister Xuan in the end!"

Xuan Ning said: "We injured the two of them, and they fled in a hurry. ”

Chen Ao nodded, as if he had thought of something suspicious, but he couldn't think clearly for a while. He was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "You are all tired, hurry back and rest and rest." This time the defeat of the horse bandits, thanks to you. I, Chen Ao, can marry a few of your wives, it's really a blessing from God!"

Chen Ao got up and sent a few people out of the door. When Zhao Ling was leaving, he suddenly turned around and said, "Xu Xiancheng and Master Wu's worries are not unreasonable. We killed more than a dozen people today, but we didn't hurt the bones of a gust of wind. There's no guarantee that they won't wait for revenge!"

Chen Ao nodded and said softly, "I understand!"

He sent the few people back to the room, turned around and walked towards the second hall. Feng Hu was already waiting there, and before Chen Ao could talk to him, he heard Qin Lang laugh and strode in.

Qin Lang patted Feng Hu on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I heard that you killed the horse bandit today, and the blood flowed like a river. It's a pity that I didn't participate in such a wonderful battle! It's a pity that I didn't participate in it...... It's a pity ......"

Feng Hu glanced at him with disgust and deliberately took a few steps out of the way. Chen Ao frowned and said, "Qin Lang, didn't I ask you to protect the Persian caravan?

Qin Lang let out a "hi", sat down on a chair, and said, "What trouble can those Persians have if they don't go out of the door?" And I saw that those Persian men were five big and three rough, and their eyes were sharp, I'm afraid that few people were willing to provoke them!"

Chen Ao frowned, nodded slightly, and suddenly remembered what Xuan Ning had said, those few Hu people with strong martial arts in the gust of wind among the horse bandits.

Qin Lang said again: "They have been here for so long, and they have not made a deal. They brought in several boxes of gold and silver, and they didn't know what to do!"

Chen Ao waved his hand and said, "Let's not talk about the caravan first." We killed the horse bandits today, and I'm afraid they'll retaliate. In the past few days, you have worked hard and led people to patrol the trade roads. At night, they should also send men to keep watch in the city, especially at the gates. I don't think it's very likely that the horse bandits just attacked the county seat, but if they plan to steal the city gate at night, it will be a big trouble!"
