Chapter 31 Strange People

At noon, there was a knock on the door outside the rooms of Meng Heyin and Mingrong, and the old cat came in with two bowls full of food.

"Young master, this is your food, please use it slowly."

The meals were not separated, there was a bowl full of rice underneath, and a layer of stir-fried cabbage that looked dark and oily was covered on top.

Mingrong raised his eyebrows, and looked at the two bowls with distaste.

Meng Heyin still greeted the old cat with a smile, but the old cat ran away as fast as it had seen Luo Sha.

Meng Heyin didn't take it seriously, and started to eat with a bowl of rice, not caring at all about Ming Rong who was hesitant to speak but stopped talking.

Seeing Meng Heyin, Ming Rong ate every bite of food and food happily, and recited it a little bit unbearably.

Meng Heyin then heard Mingrong ask sullenly: "You are also a wealthy business lady after all, why are you so... not picky about food."

Meng Heyin rolled his eyes, "You need to be picky depending on the situation, okay? You are in the bandit village, not the palace, so it would be nice to give you food."

Ming Rong's pupils trembled when he heard the word "imperial palace", but seeing that Meng Heyin just said it casually, he felt relieved again.Immediately afterwards, "Gu~" a strange voice sounded.

Meng Heyin secretly suppressed a smile: I won't tell whose stomach is hungry.

Mingrong looked at his stomach resentfully, and pressed it silently.

When Mingrong was fighting against his hungry stomach, the mighty army of exorcising bandits had already arrived at the foot of Baibei Mountain.

Baibei Mountain has a peculiar shape, and the front and back cannot see each other unless they stand on the ridge.Therefore, the people in Luojiangzhai only patrol the back side when patrolling, and only go to the ridge to patrol around the ridge every time they change shifts.

However, it was noon at this time, everyone was eating, and there was no one on the ridge, so they did not see the army that had already arrived at the foot of the mountain.

Lieutenant Yang Xian is the most experienced military general in this team. At this moment, he has assembled various small troops and ordered them: "According to Mr. Xue, the location of the bandit village is probably on the mountainside. If we go from the bottom to the top, we will be easily spotted. If we hadn't climbed to the top of the mountain on this side first, and then crossed the ridge and attacked from the top down, we would have had a more advantageous position."

Everyone should be, so Lieutenant Yang assigned positions and manpower to them one by one, and everyone set off together, and they were not allowed to talk in the middle, trying to make the smallest movement, so as not to be discovered by the bandits.

After a while, everyone climbed to the top of the mountain. At this time, they could vaguely see the location of Luojiang Village. County Captain Yang thought of Xue Jing's words.

There are only more than a hundred bandits here, and they are all well-trained county soldiers. Can they beat them with more victories than less?

So Lieutenant Yang waved his hand directly, and when everyone saw the warrant for action, they started to act one after another.

The county soldiers were well-trained and quickly arrived around Luojiangzhai. After all, there were few bandits patrolling outside, but only a few or a dozen. The county soldiers encountered were dozens of them, and most of them were beheaded without much resistance. .

The county soldiers marched all the way towards Luojiang Village, and finally a bandit sent out a signal, and short whistles rang through the entire Baibei Mountain.

"Why are there so many signals, don't they have many people?" County Captain Yang cried out inwardly, but he had already dispatched himself, so he could only fight against the scalp at this time. Jiang Zhai rushed over.

As soon as Gao Qiao heard the whistle, he hurried out to check, and at a glance he saw a crowd of people rushing towards the stockade.

Hong Shao also hurried over from the back mountain, looked at Takahashi and asked, "What should I do, Master?"

Takahashi's eyes glanced at the county soldiers, and in his mind he estimated the number of soldiers attacking, and said in a deep voice, "Don't panic, quickly gather brothers from all sides, and fight back for me according to the previous drill!"

Hong Shao got the order and hurried to mobilize the manpower.

After Gao Qiao's instructions, Luojiang Village, which was still somewhat chaotic, was now in order, and everyone went to the place where they should go, without any panic.

"Xue Jing, you are fine!" Takahashi's eyes were bloodshot, and his eyes were stained with a kind of madness called killing.

After the bandits in Luojiang Village assembled, they rushed out of the village and killed them. As the leaders, Gao Qiao and Hong Shao rushed to the forefront, taking the lead and being unparalleled in courage.

Seeing that the people in Luojiang Village had already gone out, the whole village was empty.Meng Heyin gently closed the window, then quietly opened the door to sneak out.

As soon as he put his hands on the edge of the door, he heard Ming Rong who chose to sleep because he was too hungry: "Where are you going?"

Meng Heyin squeezed a smile: "I'm going to the toilet."

"You say that, do you think I'm stupid, or are you stupid?" Mingrong got up from the bed, walked to her side, and said solemnly: "Everyone outside has left?"

Seeing that he was no longer laughing, Meng Heyin nodded seriously, "They're all gone."

Ming Rong opened the door and said to Meng Heyin, "Come with me."

Meng Heyin followed her all the way. At first, she was quite curious about why Mingrong sneaked into Luojiang Village so mysteriously, but seeing that the road she walked became more and more familiar, and Bai Zhuzi in the sea of ​​consciousness became more and more excited.

"It's this way, it's this way!"

Meng Heyin suddenly had a very ominous premonition.

Isn't this Mingrong also for that baby?

This thought startled Bai Zhuzi, "Huh?"

They were getting closer and closer to the back mountain, until Mingrong walked near the small wooden house and saw the tall sentry tower stop, Meng Heyin gave a hard "pooh" in his heart.

She knows it!

How many treasures can there be in such a broken mountain, one is guarded by the bandits, one is white beads, and Ming Rong is looking for another, it must be only one thing!

Bai Zhuzi said weakly in the sea of ​​consciousness: "Master, although I know he is strong and you are weak, you must get this treasure. I can feel that it is really important to you!"

Meng Heyin wanted to cry but had no tears. Now is the question of whether she wants to take it or not? It is the question of whether she can grab it!
Just when Meng Heyin followed Mingrong to the back mountain without thinking, Mingrong suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled her back for some reason. Immediately afterwards, a crossbow arrow ruthlessly nailed into the position where the two were just now.

Meng Heyin looked towards the direction where the crossbow arrows were coming from, and saw a person standing on the sentry tower. His clothes were not conspicuous, and he was always standing against the pillar, so that neither he nor Mingrong had noticed that there was a person there. .

"The forbidden area behind the mountain, trespassers will die." The man upstairs couldn't see his face clearly, and his voice was between clear and indistinct.

Meng Heyin immediately grabbed Mingrong's arm and said coquettishly: "I told you that we can just find Sister Ji Qiao, but you insist on hiding in a place where no one is around, see? If you don't listen to me, you will almost die, right? "

Mingrong was dragged away by Meng Heyin speechlessly, and sighed: "I can kill him."

"Did you see the sentry tower when you walked there just now?"

Mingrong frowned, not knowing what she was asking, "Of course I have."
