Start with planting a tree

76 Agree to cooperate
Meng Heyin and Mingrong blocked Xue Jing in the middle, even so, Xue Jing did not show a look of fear.

The purpose of the two of them has been clarified, but they just want to send people to attack the bandit stronghold on Baibei Mountain in advance.But they were too whimsical. Since those bandits were destined to come to the city to cause trouble, he could have sent all the borrowed officers and soldiers out of the city. After rescuing Luozhou, the father and son went away. Why risk the bandits' revenge to attack them?
As for the two people in front of him, Xue Jing didn't think they dared to kill him in the county government.They are still threatening themselves, which means they still have demands on themselves.If they really dared to do it, they would have lost their lives at this moment.

Of course, Xue Jing's confidence at this time comes from the team of officers and soldiers he borrowed from Yangcheng a few days ago.He deliberately arranged those people to be far away from the center of the county seat and close to the city gate, so that when he retreated one day, he could quickly leave the city without arousing suspicion.

What Xue Jing didn't know was that because of Meng Heyin's disturbance, the officers and soldiers stationed at the city gate had already been led here, and they were even waiting outside the gate to rush in to arrest and torture him.

There was an uncomfortable calculation on Xue Jing's face, which belonged to middle-aged people, and his whole temperament became muddy.

Meng Heyin said in his heart: What Ning Zai said is true. Xue Jing's performance clearly doesn't care about the people in the city. If he really waits until the bandits attack, he will let all the officers and soldiers protect him and escape without caring about the lives of the people.

Thinking of this, Meng Heyin's killing intent sprouted, and he looked at Xue Jing like looking at a dead person.

Mingrong sensed that Meng Heyin was in a bad mood, and coughed lightly, "In this way, Mr. Xue intends to drive out the bandits, so why ignore the people outside the door asking for help, anyway, appearing here in this attire?"

"Could it be that Mr. Xue is planning to leave the common people and escape?"

The fluffy sentence was not even a question, but it hit Xue Jing's mind and reminded Meng Heyin.

Meng Heyin strangled Xue Jing's neck: "I want you to give an order to capture Baibei Mountain now!"

Xue Jing was also aroused with arrogance, and stubbornly refused to agree: "Don't think about it!"

"Do you think that if you don't provoke the bandits, the bandits won't come to provoke you?"

"Oh." Xue Jing expressed disdain for this, "You can kill me directly. In short, no matter whether you die by your hands or by the bandits, it is a death. It is better to let the people of the city be buried with me."

"you!"

For Xue Jing to say such words, it can be seen that he is already insane.Meng Heyin clenched his fingers so angry that he really wanted to kill Xue Jing.

Seeing that the area above Xue Jing's neck was gradually turning red, but he still gritted his teeth and refused to compromise. If this continues, he will really die.

Mingrong felt that it was necessary for him to remind Meng Heyin: "If you really killed him, how would you command those officers and soldiers? Do you still want to kill those leaders?"

Hearing this, Meng Heyin calmed down and let go of Xue Jing's neck.

Xue Jing didn't have a life-threatening hand on his neck, and while he was panting, he didn't forget to show a mocking smile to Meng Heyin.

Ming Rong looked at his nose and said nothing.If some people don't want to live so much, he is also happy to see it happen.

Meng Heyin was not provoked by him this time, but resumed his foolish demeanor just now, and said, "Master Xue."

"I don't know who Xue Luozhou belongs to you?"

When Xue Jing heard this familiar name, his tired attitude suddenly corrected, and he asked, "He's still alive! Where is he? What did you do to him?"

"I can tell you kindly that he is still living in a prison cell in the bandit village. As for what I want to do to him?" Meng Heyin asked back, clasped his hands again, and said frivolously, "You should ask those bandits What to do with him."

She emphasized the word "immediately", and Xue Jing immediately noticed the dangerous meaning in these words.

"What do you mean?"

"Before you ordered officers and soldiers to attack the bandit village, you injured so many good brothers of the bandit. You don't think they will treat your son well, do you?"

Xue Jing gritted his teeth.

"I went to see him before, tsk tsk, it's damp and dark, and I don't even have to eat moldy rat meat, it's really pitiful."

Xue Jing couldn't bear to listen any longer, and interrupted Meng Heyin: "What are you trying to say?!"

At this time, Xue Jing no longer pretended to show his true character, with violent and crazy eyes.

Meng Heyin understood that the foreshadowing was in place, and corrected his attitude: "Tomorrow the bandits will attack the city, do you think they will leave a useless burden in the bandit village?"

Xue Jing's lips trembled, "Are you sure they will attack the city tomorrow?"

"Not only am I sure that the bandits will attack the city tomorrow, I'm also sure that Xue Luozhou will be pulled out to sacrifice the sword before the attack."

The so-called siege tomorrow is clearly a lie.When Takahashi was discussing with everyone, he was talking about the day after tomorrow, but she and Mingrong left the city first and did not return overnight, and there was someone like Ning Zai by her side. Not impossible.

As for the sacrificial knife with Xue Luozhou, it was Meng Heyin who made it up.Her original intention was just to give it a try. After all, Xue Jing had organized Ning Zai to rescue Xue Luozhou before. Maybe he didn't love the common people, but he loved his son very much.It really worked, and Meng Heyin was very satisfied with his judgment.

The word "sacrificial knife" kept echoing in Xue Jing's mind, and he was in a daze for a rare moment before asking, "What should I do?"

Is this a promise?

Meng Heyin raised his eyebrows, and Mingrong also smiled.

"As I said just now..."

Meng Heyin was about to explain the specific plan to Xue Jing in detail, when he saw a large area of ​​light began to shine on the other side.

Accompanied by the blocking sound of the master, a tall black figure was about to come in front of several people.

Meng Heyin and Mingrong looked at each other, and they both knew that they were the officers and soldiers. The identities of the two were suspicious, and Xue Jing would beat them up if they appeared here.

So Mingrong decisively pulled Meng Heyin into his arms, lightly tapped his feet, and disappeared into nothingness in an instant.

After Mingrong disappeared, the big leader came out in the flames, and a group of people quickly saw Xue Jing and ran up to surround him.

The big leader walked a few steps away from Xue Jing, noticed his attire, and became suspicious: "Why is Master Xue here?"

Xue Jing originally had the ability to marvel at Mingrong's sudden disappearance, if he had such kung fu, why would he be threatened by them.The reality is that he doesn't, so Xue Jing can only ask at this time: "Why is Chief Zhao here?"

"There are people in the city who are in chaos. I led people out to investigate, but I didn't expect it to be at the gate of the county government office. But judging by Master Xue's attire, I'm afraid he has no intention of managing the chaos."

The big leader's words implied that Xue Jing was clearly in the county government, but he ignored the people's pleas for help, and even changed his clothes to prepare to escape.

Xue Jing heard the implication of his words, and did not refute, but said: "I made the chief laugh. The fact of the people at the gate is that the gate has neglected its duties, but there are inside stories."

"Appreciate further details."

"This is really..." Xue Jing looked a little embarrassed, "In the middle of the night, bandits suddenly broke in. There are very few guards in the county government office. It is difficult for me to deal with the bandits; Those people claim to be ordinary people, An Zhi isn't a bandit in disguise?"

"Hmm..." Xue Jing still made some sense, and the big leader seemed to be persuaded.

"We dare not act rashly. Who knows that bandits are rampant. After I changed my clothes, I was still restrained by the neck. If Chief Zhao hadn't arrived in time, I'm afraid I would die here today!" Xue Jing said of his anger, He also flicked his sleeve vigorously, revealing the neck pinched by Meng Heyin during the movement, adding a little more credibility to this statement.

The big leader looked at the mess in the courtyard, and he really believed it, and said: "Master Xue, as you can see, bandits are so rampant, what should we do?"

Xue Jing folded his hands behind his back, his gaze sharp: "Be the first to attack and capture Baibei Mountain!"
