"Master!"
At this time, Lao Mo's voice sounded outside the carriage.
The two women may have had enough sleep, or they may be afraid of being seen. Their faces showed shyness and they quickly sat up straight.
Lin Bai rolled his eyes at the two of them, they woke up just in time.
But I was finally liberated.
He immediately asked: "What's wrong?"
"Back to the master, I asked about the identity of the bandit leader."
The bandit leader behaved abnormally. After coming down from the mountain, Lin Bai asked Lao Mo to find out more.
"His name is Liu Long. He was originally a soldier at the border. Two years ago, his wife was raped to death by a local rich man. His mother reported the matter to the government, but was beaten to death. She died in depression."
"After Liu Long came back, he learned that the rich young man was the county magistrate's nephew. He killed the rich young man in a rage. Then he sneaked into the county government office and tried to assassinate the county magistrate, but failed. He killed two government officials during his escape. That’s it.”
"Besides him, there are several bandits, and the situation is probably similar."
Song Qianqian said angrily: "Isn't this the government forcing the people to rebel?"
Qin Ke thought to himself: "He killed someone after all, and he was still a yamen servant. There is no way the government will let him go. There is only one way out."
Lin Bai also frowned slightly, "What are the origins of those mysterious people? Have you explained them?"
"I told you, they are suspected of being the Red Lotus Sect."
Red Lotus Sect?
Lin Bai looked confused.
Qin Kexin explained: "I once heard my father say that the Red Lotus Sect is a sect that opposes the imperial court. It has a great influence and can be found all over the country."
Rebellious?
A small bandit den is actually related to rebels?
Based on many years of experience in TV dramas, as long as you have a relationship with the rebels, nothing good will happen.
Lin Bai was a little panicked and asked quickly: "Does the Red Lotus Sect have any marks? For example, get a red lotus tattoo on your arm or something?"
Lao Mo shook his head, "I haven't heard of it, probably not. Wouldn't there be a risk of exposure at any time?"
All right! TV shows are all lies.
However, the female thief has a red lotus tattoo on her arm, so it seems impossible to say that it has nothing to do with the Red Lotus Sect.
No matter what, this matter is rotten in my stomach.
In short, if it has anything to do with the rebels, just pretend you don’t know about it.
The carriage went straight to Jinling City.
One day later, a prosperous city appeared in sight, with towering city walls and wide gates full of pedestrians, creating a prosperous scene.
Lin Bai and the two women got off the carriage.
"Uncle!"
"Miss!"
Liu Quan and people from the Song family were already waiting and came to greet them one after another.
After looking at Liu Long and others who were shackled not far away, Lin Bai thought about it and strode over.
"Miss, you are finally back, you scared me to death."
The old man who greeted him was in tears. He was the person who asked for help that day, Song Fu, the housekeeper of the Song Dynasty.
"Uncle Fu, I made you worry, but I'm fine now."
Song Qianqian said.
"Yeah! It's okay. Thanks to my uncle. After learning that the young lady was robbed, my uncle chased her out without saying a word. Those other people..." Song Fu was obviously resentful and angry.
But Song Qianqian couldn't listen anymore, and her heart was wrapped in an extremely huge feeling of happiness.
She didn't care what happened to other people.
What she cares about is her man.
At this moment, she wanted to rush up and hug her man. Unfortunately, there were too many people, but she still pulled Qin Kexin and chased him.
"Master Lin, we are finally safe."
Zhan Chao clasped his fists in a respectful manner.
Of course he knew Lin Bai's name, but he had only heard about it before, but his courage without hesitation yesterday really shocked him.
You know, the other party is just a weak scholar.
Lin Bai clasped his fists and said, "It's thanks to Mr. Zhan."
Then he glanced at Liu Long and others and asked: "Master Zhan, what will happen to these people?"
Zhan Chao said: "They are all fugitives, and they are trying to rob the army. No matter which one they are, it is enough to kill them several times."
"They were all forced."
The two girls had already walked over at this time, Song Qianqian couldn't help but said.
Zhan Chao shook his head, "Even so, killing is killing, not to mention robbing military rations. Moreover, Zhan has no say in the verdict."
"Zhan is a little curious, why is Mr. Lin so concerned about a group of bandits?"
Lin Bai replied: "Because they are not bad people."
Zhan Chao said: "Kill to pay for life!"
"He is a soldier, a bloody soldier. If he is indifferent to the fact that his wife was defiled to death, then can he still be considered a soldier? Is he still worthy of being a husband?"
Show super silence.
Liu Long on the side had already knelt down, tears welling up.
"Thank you Mr. Lin for speaking up. Liu knows that it is not a pity to die, but if Liu is given another chance, Liu will still kill the thief. Liu has no regrets. As Mr. Liu said, Liu will die without regrets. "
As he spoke, he kowtowed to Lin Bai three times.
There are several brothers beside him who are also like him.
However, they were eventually taken away. Although Lin Bai wanted to protect them, it was impossible.
Zhan Chao is right, kill for life!
He is just a scholar. He can only sigh about many things, but he can't change anything.
The two women looked at him a little crazy.
"Miss, why don't we go back?" Song Fu was puzzled when he saw his young lady getting on the Su family's carriage.
Song Qianqian said proudly: "I won't go back now, I want to go back with my husband."
This goblin is like a victorious rooster, asserting its sovereignty.
What reserve, go to hell!
Not only that, she also pulled Qin Kexin into the carriage, as if we depended on you.
Lin Bai rolled his eyes.
No way!
I can only do this for the time being. Don't tell me, I still feel a little bit drifting in my heart.
In the car, Song Qianqian blinked and couldn't help but ask: "Did you say what you just said to us? So you went to save us without hesitation?"
Qin Kexin also opened his eyes wide and looked at Lin Bai curiously.
¥%#@¥#……
Can we still show some face?
You are not my brother’s wife, although...but...
All right! Why was I so impulsive at that time?
right! Is it to avoid embarrassing the time-travelers? As a time-traveler, you can't just run away when you hear the bandits, right? What's it like?
Um! That's it.
The two women didn't care about this, the corners of their mouths raised as if they had eaten honey.
As the carriage drove into Jinling, the constant flow of pedestrians and the various shops lined up on both sides of the wide road were dazzling.
In comparison, Jiangzhou is much inferior.
Song Qianqian and Qin Kexin had long been used to it, but Lin Bai came into the city like a country bumpkin.
No way!
He was familiar with modern metropolises, but ancient metropolises were completely rare.
Jiangnan has been prosperous since ancient times, which is evident from the fact that Jinling is the capital of Jiangnan.
good!
Lin Bai watched along the way, feeling very happy. He set a small goal first, becoming the richest man in Jinling, buying this street, collecting rent every day, and then he would have a worry-free life.
