Chapter 914 ·Bandits

"Bandit?" Bai Rongxuan widened her eyes in fear, "But here is so close to Nanjing, how dare the bandits suddenly appear? Do they want to die? If they are seen by the guards in the city, wouldn't the two sides have to exchange fire? Although the bandits are numerous and brave, they are incomparable to the regular army. They can't hit stones with eggs, right?"

"More than that!" Shang Junzhuo was also very frightened. She was also a little hard to work hard along the way, but she was worried that Bai Rongxuan would worry about it, so she secretly found a secluded corner to take a while when she was disgusting. She just saw the bloody scene on the ground, and her stomach was surging, as if she was about to vomit it out at any time. Shang Junzhuo was calm and whispered, "The weapons of the two sides were very different. The regular army had guns and cannons in their hands. What were the bandits? It was just because they had a large number of people and had a lot of power. If Zeng Shaoquan had not had a stable status in recent years and had no intention of managing foreign affairs, he would not have allowed them to expand to such a level, and even arrogantly committed crimes in broad daylight."

Wu Jie had never seen such a scene before, and his face was so scared that he turned pale, "We... can't be a problem, right?"

Shang Junzhuo shook his head, "I think the body looks like it must have been dead for a while. The bandits will not stay where they are after the robbery. Now 80% of them have already walked away."

Wu Jie finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Bai Rongxuan became uneasy for no reason.

She still has not received any news about her uncle. Will her uncle follow the caravan and rush on his way?

Although she knew that this possibility was extremely low, once the thoughts appeared in her mind, they became more and more out of control. Bai Rongxuan said to Wu Jie, "Will my uncle also be in the caravan?"

Wu Jie was stunned, "No way? The master went out earlier than us. Although he took the land route, he had already arrived around Nanjing City now. How could he get involved with the caravan and rush to the road?"

"Yes, yes!" Bai Rongxuan nodded constantly, "I will never, my uncle will definitely not be able to do anything."

My uncle returned to Hangzhou safely in his previous life without any accidents.

But why is she still so uneasy?

Wu Jie looked at her worried look and said boldly, "Miss Xuan, if you are really worried, can I go back and take a look? Miss Shang doesn't recognize the master and the young master, but I know that as long as you glance at everyone, you will feel at ease."

Bai Rongxuan said nervously, "Is it safe?"

"I'll go and go back!" Wu Jie said, "What's more, didn't Miss Shang say that? The bandits have already walked away, so it shouldn't be in trouble."

Bai Rongxuan was really worried and agreed, "Then be careful."

Wu Jie nodded and quickly walked through the forest.

Bai Rongxuan's heartbeats like a drum, and she closed her eyes and prayed silently for her uncle and brother's safety.

Their family has experienced too many ups and downs and can't stand any accidents anymore.

Wu Jie ran back quickly, his face as white as paper, and he said in panic, "No! No master and young master..."

Bai Rongxuan felt a little relieved. Seeing his face so frightened, it must be that the bandits' methods were too cruel, which made Wu Jie unable to accept them for a while.

Bai Rongxuan said, "It's okay, someone will deal with them sooner or later."

When Bai Rongxuan was recuperating in Tianjin in his previous life, she heard the Qiu family’s servants talking about Zeng Shaoquan’s order to suppress the bandits. The results were quite significant. The Qiu family seemed very happy when they talked about it. After all, the Qiu family is a wealthy family, and has a lot of money in the world. In recent years, some bandit leaders felt that they were not satisfied and wanted to kidnap the two young masters of the Qiu family and extort more ransoms. Fortunately, the Qiu family had been used to being careful. The bandits failed to succeed after two attacks. Instead, they killed innocent people by chance, which caused storms all over the city. The Tianjin police station was dispatched, which scared the bandits to escape and remained peaceful for a long time.

Wu Jie took a few breaths lightly, "These bandits... are too cruel..."

Thinking of the scene just now, Wu Jie was still very palpitations.

Some people even had their stomachs open and their intestines flowed all over the floor...

Shang Junzhuo said, "Don't think about it, the more you think about it, the more you become, the more scared it becomes. It's always unsafe here, let's go quickly."

Wu Jie carried Bai Rongxuan on his back again and followed Shang Junzhuo with deep and shallow steps forward. At this moment, everyone dared not take the right path and could only shuttle between the mountains and forests. Fortunately, Shang Junzhuo walked all year round when he was a child. Even though the mountains were high and dense, he could still distinguish the direction through the sun.

Bai Rongxuan looked at her back and sighed again that if she hadn't been there, she and Wu Jie would have no idea what to do now.

After walking for a while, Wu Jie was exhausted and panting. The mountain road was harder than the road, let alone he was carrying Bai Rongxuan on his back?

Shang Junzhuo said, "Let's have a rest!"

The few people didn't care so much, so they sat directly on the ground. Shang Junzhuo said, "The terrain here is low and there should be a stream flowing. I'll look for it."

Bai Rongxuan said, "You can rest for a while, too."

She looked at Shang Junzhuo with a nervous look on her face.

Shang Junzhuo knew that she was worried about her body, and smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm fine." He turned around and left.

Wu Jie was still immersed in the terrifying scene just now, staring at the ground in a daze.

Bai Rongxuan took a break for a while and saw that Shang Junzhuo still hadn't come back, "Why have you been there for so long? Could it be that something happened?"

After experiencing the bandit murder, Bai Rongxuan was like a frightened bird. No matter how small the matter was, it would make her nervous for a while.

After waiting for a while, Shang Junzhuo walked back, "There is indeed a stream, just a little far from here. Let's go there to rest. It's just right to wash your face, and everyone is in spirit."

Wu Jie carried Bai Rongxuan on his back and followed Shang Junzhuo down the gentle slope. After walking for about a cup of tea, he heard a clattering sound coming from the front.

The stream is not spacious, but it is better than clear. Bai Rongxuan didn't care whether it was clean or not, so she scooped the stream water with her hands to quench her thirst. Unexpectedly, it was unexpectedly sweet. If she used it to make tea, it would be very delicious.

Wu Jie was already so thirsty that he lay on the water and drank a few big mouthfuls. The wind blew by the stream, which was extremely cool. The three of them took a break and Shang Junzhuo said, "Let's get on the road as well. I don't know how long it will take to walk around. If it's dark, it's not out of the forest yet. Who knows if there are any beasts here?"

Bai Rongxuan said, "It shouldn't be possible? This place is so close to Chengcun, even if there are wild animals, they would have been beaten to death long ago."

"That's hard to say." Wu Jie said carefully, "If the wild beasts were not seen, the bandits actually came first. It's only one day away from Nanjing City. It can be seen that these extremely vicious people have already reached a lawless situation!"

Bai Rongxuan said, "This is different. These bandits probably knew about the war in Nanjing, so they ran out to take advantage of the situation."

Shang Junzhuo said, "Let's go, talk on the road."

The three of them continued to go on the road, just walking and stopping. It was late at night that they finally took a big circle out of the mountains and forests. Seeing the wide road surface, Wu Jie breathed a sigh of relief, "I finally came out."

Seeing that it was getting late and there were no villages and houses around, Shang Junzhuo said helplessly, "I can only sleep on the street today. Can you?"

She looked at Bai Rongxuan with some concern.

This is already the time, and it has to be done if it doesn’t work.

What's more, Bai Rongxuan was displaced in her previous life and suffered a lot of hardships. She said without thinking, "Okay, why can't it?"

Shang Junzhuo was a little surprised.

Seeing that Bai Rongxuan was so cute, she must have been spoiled at home, and she never expected that she was so sensible.

Shang Junzhuo smiled with satisfaction, found a big tree on the side of the road to settle down, and found a lot of hay around him and Wu Jie to lay it under him. The three of them ate two bites of dry food, and were extremely tired, and they both fell asleep soon.

At midnight, a shrill howl slashed through the night sky, and Bai Rongxuan immediately opened her eyes, "What's the movement?"

Shang Junzhuo and Wu Jie also woke up together, and Wu Jie immediately said, "Are you bandits here?"

Shang Junzhuo listened with his ears and shook his head and said, "No, it should be a wild monkey in the woods."
