Chapter 348
Before Madam Xue could recover from her senses, she heard the evil bandits screaming and instantly collapsed.
Seeing them running around in panic, Xue Zhu was full of doubts when she saw them running around in panic.
"Run!"
"...It's them, two seemingly young old monsters, killed the leader of the Holy Lotus Orna and General Zheng."
"How could you admit your mistake? Have you seen a few people like this? They are still together and don't run away to die? Do you have two heads or do you feel that your neck is harder than the old man in the white bone?"
These scattered and chaotic shouts came into my ears. Mo Li suddenly realized and then became silent.
It turned out that his reputation with Meng Qi was spread to Yongzhou. Although not many people had met, their physical characteristics were "popular" on the bandits and the Green Forest Road, and they also added great achievements in eliminating the scums in the Holy Lotus Altar in a timely manner.
But no matter how surprised it is, people cannot let go. Bandits will harm all directions and kill people and robbers.
"Brother Meng."
Mo Li greeted him, but in fact, Meng Qi took action without him.
The main purpose of making a statement to Xue Zhu was to show that the one who appeared later was his fellow travelers.
Xue Zhu slowly put down his knife, and the groom in the caravan also breathed a sigh of relief because of the dispersion of the bandits. Then everyone looked at the group of people who were so aggressive that they had just disappeared in the blink of an eye.
They were lit with acupoints and stopped in the desperate movements of escaping. Some people ran and looked back, some tried to push their accomplices to stop Meng Qi, and everyone turned their backs to this side, as if they were being chased by jackals, tigers and leopards.
The caravan seemed to blink a few times, and when he looked up, everything was over.
"puff."
Some people laughed out loud, then pointed at the bandits and started to curse.
Mo Li quietly withdrew the sword and stuffed it back to Meng Qi.
Meng Qi glanced at Xue Zhu, his expression was a little stiff, and turned around and asked, "Is this someone Ali knows?"
The main thing is that Meng Qi has always met "acquaintances" along the way, otherwise the people they "know" together have never happened to this situation in front of him. Even Meng Qi is inevitably a little "caring". In particular, he already knows Mo Li very well. No matter whether he meets by chance or treats patients, Mo Li will not show too much surprise, and even he is familiar with greetings.
"This is Miss Xue..."
Mo Li paused. He was familiar with Xue Zhu, but he didn't really deal with him many times. He had to read, study medicine and practice martial arts, and he didn't even have time to doze off. Xue Zhu's martial arts skills were actually not very high. He mainly learned poison skills. According to martial arts, Xue Ting couldn't bear to bear to suffer from his love for his daughter.
But in the Taishu County of Zhushan County, Pingzhou, everyone is basically familiar with each other. Who doesn’t know whose family’s affairs?
When a family encounters a marriage and funeral, people from half a city can meet each other, not to mention people who are in love with their parents, so there is no difference between them and their own brothers.
The main reason why Mo Li paused was that he realized that this situation was like a family friend of Qi, and it was the first choice for marriage. Moreover, they "looked" at the same age. If Xue Lingjun had not considered Mo Li when he chose his son-in-law, it would be impossible, but if this matter started, there would be no further details.
Mo Li used to think that he was a fish, and even if Xue Ting came to test it, he would refuse it.
Although the Xue family didn't even give him the chance to refuse, Mo Li didn't think about the reason behind this. He would marry whoever Xue Zhu wanted to marry. There were so many men left, and Mo Li had no idea, so he wouldn't be petty about the other party and didn't like him.
It was not until last winter that I left Qimaoshan and was entrusted by Xue Lingjun to go to Ma County to deliver a letter. I saw a farce that I understood the key points.
"This is Mrs. Xue, this is her husband, we are all from Pingzhou." Mo Li found Chen Chong, who was like a thick black iron tower in the crowd. She was embarrassed. Chen Chong was actually treated as a bandit and pointed it together.
The main thing is Chen Chong's thick eyebrows and tiger eyes, his eyes seem to be about to eat people, his fists are bigger than bowls, and his chest is even more ups and downs.
In addition, during the melee, the mountain bandits and bandits themselves fought together. After Meng Qi and Moli appeared, most of them rushed to flee. There was also a caravan's guy, the groom, trying to chase and kill, but in fact they were running. This is how Chen Chong was misunderstood.
While untiing Chen Chong's acupoints, Mo Li sent a message to Meng Qi into secrets: "That is the daughter of Xue Lingjun."
Meng Qi's eyes lit up.
"...Only girl!" Mo Li didn't know why she emphasized it.
So I found that the national teacher's eyes were brighter.
Chen Chong didn't care about being trapped. As soon as he could move, he laughed and said, "I didn't expect to meet Dr. Mo here."
The Chen family had a caravan and had met bandits in Pingzhou. Seeing that the matter was over, the caravan packed up the goods again. Some were busy with carriages, while others were moving boxes.
Xue Zhu wiped off the blood from the knife, searched in the crowd, and found a few people who looked like bandits.
"The slut of Chi Wangshan, my aunt knows that you are involved in this matter!"
Mo Li was stunned when she heard this and began to recall what was going on with this familiar name. Fortunately, Chen Chong, who was beside him, finished the matter in just a few words.
It turned out that when the Chen family caravan was doing business, they encountered bandits who gathered in Xiaojiao and robbed him. Of course, they didn't catch them well, but were killed by Xue Zhu. On the contrary, a few people were not in the bandit camp that day and became fish that missed the net. Afterwards, they held a grudge and encouraged the bandits in Yongzhou, Pingzhou and the Green Linke to trouble the Chen family caravan.
That's all, they even directly threw themselves into the Holy Lotus Altar, and once planned to win over some bandit camps in Yongzhou and prepare to capture the county town.
While talking, Meng Qi turned around and brought Yan Cen and the carriage over.
Before everyone could register their names and greet them, Yan Cen immediately thought that Shimoshan Village had encountered such a "guest" at that time, trying to make them follow the emperor and seize the city and plan to rebel.
"They did not move Shimo Mountain Village, but encouraged eight other bandit villages." Xue Zhu spat and said angrily, "Two months ago, the king of scholars attacked Jingzhou, and these sluts also came out to cause trouble and captured two county towns in Yongzhou. However, they have been driven out by the government army and fellow soldiers of the rivers and lakes. The remaining troops fell into the grass and became bandits and robbed everywhere. The trade routes from Pingzhou to Yongzhou were broken before. If the fur cannot be transported out, the hunters in Ma County would have no food to eat. We also had to buy a lot of salt, sugar, and some medicinal materials to go back."
Chen Chong patted the boxes and signaled that these were the things they were going to bring back.
"I heard that the officials often come to eliminate the bandits, but these people are still very slippery, rebel soldiers, green forest guests and bandits... Fortunately, my wife Xue noticed the suspicious people she saw yesterday, so she was already prepared. These people were dirty and hungry. Seeing so many boxes of us, she probably didn't think about what was inside, and she robbed them when she came up."
Mrs. Xue hugged her arms and said with a snorkeling, "I'm afraid there are some guys like Chi Wushan who are fanning the flames, so we brought gold, silver, rice and grain."
At this time, the bandits complained about the injustice. Yongzhou was in chaos for a long time, and now the caravans are almost unable to see each other. After finally a big fish came, how could they let it go?
Mo Li also recalled it. No wonder there were so many Jinyiwei along the way. Gong Jun arranged so thoughtfully, and even had some big fuss. It seemed that these Jinyiwei were not sent by him, but were originally searching for the remnants of the Holy Lotus Altar in Yongzhou.
When Yan Cen heard the news about Shimo Mountain Village, he was extremely nervous and hurriedly asked.
Chen Chong thought for a while and said with a smile: "It's okay. I heard that the master of Shimo Mountain cut down two incense masters from the Holy Lotus Altar. If it weren't for them, the sects of the Jianghu in Yongzhou would not have reacted so quickly. It would not be so easy to rely on the official army alone."
In Yongzhou, there was a three-year drought, and the people were living in poverty. All those who could escape ran away. The remaining people were easily fooled by the king.
But in essence, it was just a group of mobs, like Shimo Mountain Village, and they were bandits, and they were not as good as Shimo Mountain Village.
In fact, Shimoshan is an ideal of avoiding the world that Cheng Jingchuan once talked about but could not get: a group of people stay away from the world and live in a deserted place to avoid the harm of the cruel world.
Because the thoughts will change, if you live a hard and poor life for too long, you will miss everything outside, and will imitate the people who once bullied them, and then bully others in order to consolidate your status. But this problem will not occur in Shimo Mountain, because the people in the village clearly know that there is no place for them to be outside the mountain.
Even if it is not a chaotic world, even if there is no disaster, they will still be expelled and despised. They have never been accepted by this world. Only in Shimo Mountain can they be "people" with dignity and without being subjected to strange gazes.
"The head of Shimoshan is indeed very talented." Meng Qi remembered what he saw at the beginning, and Shimoshan used the terrain to capture those ill-intentioned people in the martial arts world.
This included a delusion to cut off the dragon vein of the Lu family of Qi and sell Taoist Sang to the King of Wu.
I thought about the stupid and evil people I saw from north to south, and it was also funny.
Meng Qi glanced at Mo Li without a trace, thinking that it was probably because A Li was always by his side, and even the abominable faces of those idiots became part of the wonderful memory.
Meng Qi looked away and couldn't help but turn back quietly, and he was worried about it.
——Mo Li happened to be watching Meng Qi.
When the eyes meet, there will be a ignorant aura that is unclear and ignorant slowly entangles.
Caught off guard, they saw similar emotions in each other's eyes, and unconsciously smiled at the corners of their mouths.
Maybe Meng Qi felt that this glance was quick, and Mo Li didn't notice anything wrong, thinking that she just took a casual look, not even noticed whether she was smiling.
Chen Chong opened his mouth slightly in surprise, his face full of confusion, and then he stretched out one hand from the side to cover his mouth.
Chen Chong, who was so tall that he could cover the sunshine above others, lowered his head innocently and looked at Xue Zhu beside him.
"Are these bandits handed over to the government?" Meng Qi asked lazily.
Just so happened that the Jinyiwei and the others could find it soon, and they were eager to immediately deal with the bandits wandering in Yongzhou.
Yan Cen's spirit was completely restored. He received news from Shimoshan, which made him feel like he was returning home, and at the same time he was a little annoyed. At such a critical moment, he was not with everyone in Shimoshan.
"Well, Brother Meng and I are going back to Pingzhou together. It's time for this, so everyone might as well go on the road together."
