After hearing this, Chu Ze stopped drinking.
He keenly noticed that this was probably not an ordinary bandit cutting a trail.
It is very likely that people are prevented from entering Beijing in a targeted manner.
The person who stopped him was still the person Chu Ze was looking for.
Chu Ze had already guessed most of the purpose.
So today, he took Zhu Ping with him and decided to meet these people in person.
After leaving the city, Chu Ze went straight to the place Zhu mentioned.
Half a day later...
"There's no one there. Did we come to the wrong place or at the wrong time?" Zhu Xi held a piece of grass in his mouth and sat boredly under a tree trunk, chewing the grass root slowly while talking to Chu Ze No one complained about them.
Chu Ze leaned against another tree and stood aside, raising his eyes and looking down.
The location they chose was very good. Looking down, they could just see the place where Zhu said they caught the robber.
However, they had not seen anyone since morning until now. On the contrary, several waves of pedestrians passed by.
Chu Ze is not as impatient as Zhu Xi.
If there is no one, it will further confirm your guess.
If there is someone, there is even a witness.
No matter which result, Chu Ze was very satisfied.
Hearing Zhu Ming's complaint, Chu Ze comforted him with a few words of sincerity.
Zhu Xi didn't even bother to listen.
Not long after, a servant dressed as a boy ran over from the side of the forest.
When he ran to Chu Ze, he knelt down and said, "Sir, a group of bandits were found on Zhangjiapo. According to your wishes, our people did not alarm them. Please tell me now."
Before Chu Ze could react, Zhu Ping started to laugh.
He stood up suddenly, spat out the grass in his mouth, and said excitedly, "We've waited a long time. The group of people on Zhangjiapo probably did this too. Chu Ze, let's go and catch him." Show yourself.”
Chu Ze raised the corner of his mouth: "Let's go."
The Zhangjiapo mentioned by the young man is also the only way to enter Yingtian.
After Chu Ze heard Zhu talking about this incident and contacted the location he mentioned, he could easily guess where these people might appear.
No, they guarded the plant and finally caught the rabbit.
It's time to close the net.
Chu Ze led the people and went straight to Zhangjiapo.
When they arrived, a group of people had just driven away a wave of people entering Beijing.
Some of them were preparing to walk back at this time, talking to each other, looking high-spirited and excited.
"Boss, we have completed it again. This time when we go back, we will definitely be the ones who have completed the most, and we will definitely be rewarded a lot!"
The man known as the boss raised his chin proudly and said: "That's natural. The place we chose, how can it be any worse? Come on, let's continue waiting. Maybe someone else will come later."
"It must be there. We went shopping in the city yesterday and heard that Chu Ze couldn't wait for anyone. He was so anxious that he issued a notice saying that he would add more silver. Tsk tsk, it's 10 taels of silver per month. It makes us jealous. Unfortunately, we don’t have that chance."
"Look at your prospects. Now we can earn several taels of silver for one job. In a day, we can earn several hundred taels. Isn't it less than that? Come on, just say a few words. We'll wait until dark, and then we'll go find the person who reports us. The result. Remember to highlight your moves. We have heard that one of the first two teams intercepted a team escorting coal. Now the boss is not happy. Don't do this to me. Something stupid is coming." After all, the people above have told them that only the poor people they intercepted are not allowed to intercept those who look rich and powerful.
But that team was too greedy and made a lot of money out of it.
If they hadn't run so fast, everyone would have been captured by now.
No, that spot was removed by the people above, and they were ordered not to appear there again for at least half a month.
Even their actions became cautious.
The boss was about to walk back to where he was hiding when he suddenly discovered that at some point, there were two well-dressed wealthy young men standing there, followed by a group of people dressed as boys.
Especially the ordinary-looking guy on the left in the first row, the boss recognized him at a glance.
Who the hell is this if not Chu Ze? !
How could Chu Ze find this place!
The boss's face turned pale: "Run!"
The brother below was stunned. Before his mind could react, his body had already moved.
Chu Ze crossed his arms and raised his chin slightly towards the person behind him: "If one of you escapes, you just wait to be punished."
"yes."
The group of boys were like tigers coming out of the mountain, following the robbers and pounced on them.
They were all selected by Chu Ze from the Forbidden Army, and none of them were weak in force, far beyond the combat effectiveness of Zhu Na's family soldiers.
However, after a moment, these people were caught by the imperial army.
They escorted the people to Chu Ze.
Chu Ze walked over and half-bent: "Tell me, who is the 'person above' you were talking about just now."
The boss snorted coldly and looked away.
"Oh, you have quite some backbone." Zhu Xi stood there watching the show, but his words made people shudder, "Boy, I'm afraid you have forgotten what this Lord Chu did before."
Although the Jinyi Guards have now withdrawn, their "prestige" has always remained in everyone's hearts.
When Zhu Xi mentioned this, the man's body shook violently.
Chu Ze turned around and looked at Zhu Ping with disgust: "Why, you, the former deputy commander of the Imperial Guard, didn't even mention our name, right?" You just used him to scare people?
Too unreasonable.
The boss trembled even more.
Zhu Xi grinned and said with great sincerity: "Isn't that why you have a greater reputation?"
Big fart!
This person clearly didn't want to tarnish his reputation and deliberately used him to make a big deal out of him.
Chu Ze just wanted to give Zhu Ming a middle finger for his carefulness.
Did you see it? This is our dislike of you!
Zhu Xi gave a disdainful middle finger in reply "very politely".
After the two exchanged words, Chu Ze turned his attention back to the boss: "Did you hear that? If you don't say anything else, I will let you try Jin Yiwei's methods!"
The boss almost fainted on the spot!
"I said, don't do it!" If you want to experience this, your own life will be affected.
Now that I'm honest, at least I don't have to suffer any physical pain.
Chu Ze looked at him and sneered: "You are quite practical. Tell me everything you know, and I can spare your life. Otherwise, you will die."
The man's face turned pale again.
"We, we are actually not robbers, we are citizens of Liuhe County." When the man spoke, his voice was filled with tears.
Chu Ze and Zhu Fang looked at each other in surprise.
This development was a bit... no, it was quite beyond their expectations.
"go on."
The man sniffed and continued in a hoarse voice: "We were originally small gangsters from Liuhe County. The locals called us four dogs. We spent the whole day eating, drinking, gambling, and making some small money in the county. The result was pretty good. But half a month ago, someone suddenly found us..."
