"Be careful. I heard that the bandits in Maomao Mountain have two brushes. Don't capsize your boat in the ditch and end up with it in the hands of the bandits instead of dying on the battlefield."
Qinghuai reminded Zhong Wu when he saw how he didn't care.
"Don't worry, Lord Marquis."
Zhong Wu smiled and took off his armor.
There were two other guards who also changed into tattered clothes like him.
The three men did not hold crossbows, but carried broken knives with broken teeth and burrowed into the grass.
"Sir, let's go and see the excitement."
Qinghuai stood up and walked to the hill next to him.
…
On Maomao Mountain, there is a thatched house, which looks no different from an ordinary mountain village, but there are no women or children.
In order to maintain the bloody spirit of bandits, the boss did not allow women here. If he wanted a woman, he would go down the mountain to snatch her. Once he had robbed her, he had enough fun at the foot of the mountain before returning to the mountain.
As for the women who were robbed, they might have been sold to a dark brothel or their bodies might have been thrown into the wilderness.
A little bandit with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks ran up from the mountain, rushed into a courtyard panting, and shouted to the burly man holding a stone lock in the courtyard:
"The second master, there is news about the third master."
"Say it!"
The second boss threw away the stone lock and said, "Where is the third child!"
After the bald man was expelled from the mountain by the boss, he always wandered around and would come to him every ten days and a half to ask for money.
But in the past month or so, Bald Head hadn't come, so the second boss realized that something might have happened to Bald Head.
So he sent people to inquire at the foot of the mountain.
But there has been no news.
The little bandit looked at the second master in fear and hesitated to speak.
The second master impatiently wanted to kick the little man, but he raised his foot and put it down again.
The little man is his loyal little brother and his dog-headed military advisor. He usually helps him with things, and he cannot just kick him like he does with other bandits.
Holding back his anger, he asked: "Has the third child been harmed?"
"Uh... I got the news that twenty days ago, someone saw the Third Master arguing with someone at the casino in Lijiawan, and was thrown out by the casino people... The Third Master refused to accept it, and started a fight with the casino people, and was...
…beaten to death by people from the casino…”
The little bandit told the news again.
This news is false news that Qinghuai deliberately let Zhang Liang out. Even if the second master is lucky enough to survive this time, he will not be found in Xihewan.
"No wonder I can't find the third child. It turns out he was lost in Lijiawan!"
The second boss punched the table: "Go call someone, call all the brothers out, and go check this casino!"
"Second Master, please don't be impulsive."
The little man quickly said: "It's hard to tell whether this news is accurate or not. It's not suitable for mobilizing people."
Wherever there are people, there are rivers and lakes. The bandits in Maomao Mountain are not all monolithic. The first master and the second master had some problems with each other, so they drove away the bald ones.
Recently, a younger brother under the big boss made a mistake and was beaten half to death by the second boss. The big boss is looking for an opportunity to take revenge.
The second master thought for a moment and asked, "You have a lot of clever ideas. What should I do?"
"Second Master, that's what I think."
The little man said: "Let's take people to Lijiawan. If the news is wrong, we will inquire again. If the third boss was really killed by the casino, we will find a fight with the casino..."
"It's better to injure one or two brothers, so that I can come back and tell people to level the casino, and the boss can't say anything."
The second boss suddenly understood the little man's plan.
Baldhead was expelled from the mountain. Strictly speaking, he was considered a traitor in Maomao Mountain. Even if he was killed, the second master could not take the bandits to avenge him.
But if they get beaten up in a casino, that's different.
The Maomaoshan bandits must stand up for the second boss, otherwise people's hearts will be broken.
"The second master is wise."
The little man quickly flattered him.
"Go and tell Xiao Hei to bring a few people with him, and let's go to Lijiawan to gamble!"
The second master waved his hand.
The little man agreed and ran out.
Soon, the second boss and his four confidants went down the mountain and headed straight for Lijiawan.
While passing through a forest, three men suddenly rushed out.
"Hey, stop!"
Zhong Wu shouted: "I opened this road and planted this tree. I want to pass by here and leave money to buy the road!"
"Did you drive this road?"
I have been a bandit for half my life, but I was stopped and robbed in front of my house. The second boss laughed in anger: "Do you even know who we are? I am the second boss of Maomao Mountain!"
"I don't care if you are a cat mountain or a dog mountain, get the money quickly, otherwise don't blame me for being merciless!"
Zhong Wu shouted fiercely.
"Boy, you look like a deserter, right? If you want to occupy the top of the mountain, go somewhere else. There are already people here.
You're lucky, I don't have time to talk to you today, so get out of here, if you don't leave when I come back, I'll skin you!"
The second boss was in a hurry to go to Lijiawan. He cursed Zhong Wu a few times and wanted to leave.
"I'll peel off your skin first!"
Zhong Wu shouted loudly, swung his long knife and slashed at a bandit.
This bandit is still watching the fun. How can he think that Zhong Wu will do it just at his word?
He was directly chopped down by Zhong Wu.
The other two guards behind him also launched a charge at the same time as Zhong Wu attacked, and each of them cut down a bandit.
In the blink of an eye, only the second boss and the little man were left on the bandits' side.
The second master finally got scared and said, "Hero..."
As soon as he said two words, he was stabbed to the core by Zhong Wu.
"Heroes, spare their lives! Heroes, spare their lives!"
The little man was so frightened that he collapsed on the ground and kowtowed.
"Go back and tell your boss that I want this mountain and tell him to take his people and get out of here!"
Zhong Wu patted the little man with the back of his knife: "Go away!"
"Thank you, good man!"
The little man turned over and rolled and climbed up the mountain.
Zhong Wu laughed loudly and started picking up the corpses.
They had to do a complete set for the show. After searching for valuables, Zhong Wu and the others also took away all the bandits' clothes.
"Haha, the fun is about to begin."
On the hill, Qinghuai patted his butt, stood up and said, "Sir, wait here while I go down."
Jin Feng looked at Zhong Wu at the foot of the mountain, his heart surging.
Although he had killed people, he was forced to do it. After killing the bald man, Jin Feng had nightmares for several days.
But look at Zhong Wu, he is smiling from beginning to end, as if he were killing someone or killing a chicken.
This allowed Jin Feng to see for the first time the difference between regular soldiers and ordinary people.
By the time he came to his senses, Qinghuai had already gone down the mountain.
Zhong Wu and the others also returned to the woods, quickly put on their armor and picked up their weapons.
When Jin Feng saw Qing Huai pointing at the foot of the mountain, a group of guards dispersed and went to different positions holding crossbows.
Including Zhang Liang, they also got into a bush.
Only the dark-skinned man followed Qinghuai back to the top of the mountain.
"Okay, the arrangements are made. Sir, we can just wait and watch the show."
