Fortunately, it was night at this time and the lights were dim. Yingxun didn't see their expressions clearly. He only took the initiative to say hello to the two brothers.
Chen Huanan also woke up after the other party greeted him. He only smiled and responded, "Deputy village leader, you will be back soon."
Yingxun only nodded lightly, and then Shi Xingke, who was standing beside him, took Chen Changnian, whose hands were bound, and walked forward.
Chen Yannian didn't react at all, but before going up the mountain, she turned around and glanced at the Chen brothers.
But the Chen brothers didn't dare to meet her gaze.
On the other hand, Shi Xingke, who was pulling Chen Hongnian, did not look back, but he seemed to have a pair of eyes behind his back. He only said to Chen Hongnian, "What are you looking back at?"
Chen Yannian did not respond.
Shi Xingke waited for a while, and then he seemed to suddenly react. He smiled and said, "Oh, I forgot, I tapped your dumb point."
But after saying this, he obviously had no intention of unlocking Chen Hongnian's mute point. On the contrary, he only pulled Chen Hongnian again, and Chen Hongnian was instantly pulled and staggered.
It was already the middle of the night. Although there were only stone lanterns burning every other section of the road in Yunhu Village, the doors of every household here were closed at this time. On the contrary, the mountains were extremely lively.
People were busy digging iron ore and forging iron in the mountains as usual. However, in addition to these busy villagers today, there were only a lot of bandits coming from other places near the mine. They were visiting Yunhu Lake under the leadership of Chen Yanrong. Everything on the village.
But when Yingxun came over with Chen Yannian and Shi Xingke, everyone's eyes fell on these two people unconsciously.
Yingxun didn't squint at the probing eyes of the others. He came straight to Chen Yanrong, and then he knelt down on one knee in front of Chen Yanrong. Chen Yanrong only nodded slightly at Yingxun's knelt down. nod.
She didn't notice Chen Hongnian at this time, because Chen Hongnian was drooping his head at this time, and she almost lowered her head to the ground.
Moreover, Chen Yanrong's attention was not on Chen Changnian. She only turned to look at Shi Xingke.
Shi Xingke naturally noticed Chen Yanrong's gaze. He only leaned forward slightly, then put his right hand on his chest and whispered, "Hello, Mr. Mountain Master of Yunhu Village, I am Shi Xingke from Yunzhou Jiulong Village." .”
When Chen Yanrong saw Shi Xingke saluting her, she just smiled and nodded and said, "Young Master Shi must have had a hard time traveling all the way, right?"
Facing Chen Yanrong's greetings, Shi Xingke shook his head and said, "Xingke is not bitter. Fortunately, Xingke has a life left, and fortunately the deputy village leader Yingxun came out to look for me. If not, Xingke would have died." Lost that majestic mountain."
Chen Yanrong originally wanted to ask why only one person came from the Yunzhou Bandit Village, which occupied thirty-nine seats among the forty-nine villages, but she did not expect that Shi Xingke would complain first.
Chen Yanrong naturally followed his words and asked, "What does Mr. Shi mean by this? Could it be that there was something wrong with our pick-up and drop-off."
When Shi Xingke heard this, he immediately stepped forward and snorted coldly, "I don't know whether this is a mistake or a deliberate setup by you."
Naturally, the people in Yunhu Village also heard Shi Xingke's evil intentions.
Therefore, one of the hall masters only stood up angrily and said, "You!"
However, before the hall leader could reprimand him, Chen Yanrong interrupted him, "Hall Master Zuo, don't be rude!"
Then she looked at Shi Xingke with a calm expression and said, "I wonder what happened to Mr. Shi? Mr. Shi, would you like to tell us in detail?"
After hearing Chen Yanrong's question, Shi Xingke naturally told the story of his experience: "Today at the junction of Weishan and Yunzhou, we met people who claimed to be from Yunhu Village. They said they were here. They responded to us, and they only matched the code we agreed with the deputy village leader Yingxun that day, so we believed them."
"Then they waited until all the people in our thirty-nine villages were there, and then they told us to go to Yunhu Village. It was dark at that time, and the road conditions in Weishan were not good. When we passed a canyon, we heard There was a huge noise in front of us, and then the six response staff from Yunhu Village said they would help us go and investigate.
look. "
"We had no doubt that he was there, so we waited where we were. At that time, I was the only one who thought that I could help them, so I suggested that we go with them to have a look. We didn't expect that we just walked to the outside of the canyon. We didn't expect that the leading woman But suddenly a whistle blew, and then as soon as the whistle sounded, rolling boulders fell from the canyon."
"In just a moment, the valley was blocked. Except for me, all the brothers in the thirty-nine villages survived."
"And that woman and her companions only wanted to kill me? It's a pity that they are no match for me. The woman saw that the situation was not good and ran away."
"After that, I thought I couldn't go back to Yunzhou, so I thought about going out first. Unfortunately, there are many forked roads in the mountains. I walked for a long time and couldn't find the exit. I went round and round until late at night, and I didn't find the exit. When I left, I thought that there were only a dozen people here, so I wanted to kill them all, and then left here. However, after I killed two people, I found that those people who were guarding the government at the exit were all the people I knew. There were about dozens of people I saw. I didn’t want to cause trouble, so I wanted to leave secretly, but the woman discovered me. Then she led a group of people to chase me. I didn’t want to cause too much trouble, so I just ran away. "
"I didn't expect that on my way to escape, I actually met the deputy village master Yingxun. I joined forces with the deputy village master. Fortunately, I only captured the initiator of my brother's harm alive. I ask the mountain master to die for me. Brother’s revenge!”
When Chen Yanrong heard this, she immediately said, "Where is the person who created the figurines now?"
Shi Xingke immediately pulled Chen Hongnian, and Chen Hongnian just fell to the ground.
Chen Yanrong was not in the mood to look at Chen Changnian's face.
She just shouted loudly, "Someone, drag this girl out and cut her to death with a thousand cuts! Then hang her body at the entrance of the village as a warning to others!"
Regarding Chen Yanrong's order, Shi Xingke naturally praised "The mountain master is wise!"
However, Yingxun on the side immediately said, "The mountain master must not do this!"
Chen Yanrong looked at Yingxun in confusion, and then her eyes fell slightly on the woman. Although she could not see the woman's face clearly, she could tell from her body shape that this woman must be a beauty, so she only With a subtle expression, he said, "What? Is the Deputy Village Master showing pity for her? If the Deputy Village Master likes her, I can let her stay with the Deputy Village Master for a few days before she dies."
However, in response to Chen Yanrong's words, Yingxun immediately frowned, "Mountain Master, my subordinates' loyalty to you can be seen in the sun and the moon, and I have no second thoughts! I just think that this case is really strange, so let's immediately After executing someone, we might as well interrogate how her government discovered us and what actions they will take next."
After hearing this, Chen Yanrong seemed to finally start to consider the pros and cons. Chen Yanrong quickly came to the conclusion: "What Deputy Village Leader Yingxun said makes sense. Mr. Shi, I know you want to kill this person right now, but now This matter is also related to our subsequent actions, so this person cannot be executed on the spot yet!"
The other Anxi bandits who lived with Yunhu Village and were not short of personnel for this operation naturally immediately echoed Chen Yanrong's statement. After all, if the government carries out follow-up operations, the Anxi bandits in front of them will undoubtedly bear the brunt. To be paid off.
Upon hearing what these people said, Shi Xingke just said angrily, "It turns out that the mountain owner is not a man of words."
However, he also knew that public anger was difficult to quell. Right now, he was still alone in other people's territory. If something happened, no one could guarantee his safety, so he just said, "That's it, I'll wait. If something happens, If there are any excuses after that, I won’t tolerate it anymore.”
When Chen Yanrong heard this, she quickly smiled and nodded to the other party in a soothing manner, "That's natural. When we finish interrogating this woman, Mr. Shi can just deal with her as he pleases."
Hearing Chen Yanrong's words, Chen Yannian felt fear in his heart.
But with Chen Yanrong's words, Shi Xingke breathed a sigh of relief.
"That's fine, I'll just wait!"
Seeing that Shi Xing was relieved, Chen Yanrong still hoped that Shi Xing might clear her from suspicion, so she just smiled and said, "Master Shi has come a long way, why don't we go and have a reception banquet now."
However, regarding Chen Yanrong's proposal, Shi Xingke immediately waved his hand and said, "Mountain Master, don't worry about me. Shi's brother
My brother was trapped in the valley and now he was afraid that he would become a meat in the valley. Shi was really not in the mood to attend the reception banquet. "
However, Shi Xingke also knew that he should not prevent Chen Yanrong from coming to the stage, so he only said, "But if the mountain master is so interested, I wonder if the mountain master can arrange a place for me. Shi wants to go back to his room and take a rest."
Regarding Shi Xingke's proposal, Chen Yanrong immediately said, "Of course it's no problem!"
Then she whispered to the people around her, "Take Mr. Shi down to rest quickly and arrange for him to be in the best guest room."
The people around him whispered yes, and then led Shi Xingke away.
As soon as Yingxun saw Shi Xingke leaving, he also pulled Chen Changnian up, who was kneeling on the ground and refused to even lift his head.
He did not expose Chen Yannian's little tricks, and the reason why he did this was naturally because he did not want others to see the look in Chen Yanrong's eyes in front of everyone.
He felt that Chen Yanrong would be surprised if she could see Chen Changnian's face clearly. After all, who would have thought that her cousin, who was far away from the emperor today, would actually come to a place like this to play, and she would do something wrong right away. Such a big thing.
Although Yingxun didn't speak at this time, he also felt in his heart that since Chen Hongnian participated in this incident, there must be a bigger fish behind him.
