Chapter 124 The person who prays

The big man with flowery arms licked his canine teeth and showed a rather crazy smile, "Hahaha! You don't know whether to live or die, grandpa will teach you how to behave today!"

As soon as the words fell, the two sides immediately started fighting!

The metal weapons collided, making a crisp and sonorous sound.

A big man took the time to ask the big man with flowery arms: "Third Leader, tell me, who is in this carriage? Why has there been no movement for most of the day?"

The big man with colorful arms glanced at the carriage and mocked: "I guess some turtle grandson is afraid to come out!"

Takeda was close to the two of them. Hearing this, his heart tightened and his hands moved faster.

If they knew there were two women sitting inside...

Mrs. Ning and Chu Weiqing both have excellent looks, but they are afraid of the consequences.

While the big man was talking to the big man with flowery arms, he swung his sword and slashed at the big man with fast and accurate movements!

As soon as the big man with flowery arms turned his head, he saw this scene. His big copper bell-like eyes opened even wider, and he shouted loudly: "Be careful!"

Unfortunately, it's too late.

The big sword cut off the big man's head directly.

The big man with flowery arms said, "How dare you, boy!"

"Tsk, I dare to kill you!"

Hearing this, the big man with flowery arms became furious and rushed towards Takeda.

Takeda was not afraid at all, picked up the sword and faced him bravely.

Although Takeda does not have as many manpower as the bandits, each of them is an elite member of the military. No matter how tough these bandits are, they are no match for them.

Seeing that something was wrong, the big man with flowery arms quickly called the remaining people to leave.

Someone wanted to catch up, but Takeda grabbed the other person and said, "Don't chase after poor bandits. It's upright to protect the madam and the others."

After saying this, Takeda said to the carriage: "Madam, Miss Chu, everything is fine."

"We're fine, thank you all for your hard work." Chu Weiqing's voice came from the carriage.

Takeda squeaked, "This is my duty, Miss Chu, you don't have to be polite."

The two people in the carriage were in shock, but they both breathed a sigh of relief.

"It's okay, it's okay." Mrs. Ning was a little scared, "It seems that I really have to go to the temple to pray for blessings. This kind of thing happens every time I go out."

Chu Weiqing comforted her softly: "It's okay, madam, don't worry."

Along the way, they met no more bandits and arrived at Qingyin Temple safely.

Qingyin Temple is considered a big temple. Perhaps its reputation has spread these days, and there is an endless stream of pilgrims coming and going.

As soon as everyone entered the temple, there was a strong smell of incense and the sound of Zen sounded in their ears.

A monk is chanting sutras.

The decoration inside the temple is majestic and solemn, and makes people feel peaceful.

Takeda never believed this, but at this moment, the anger aroused by the killing seemed to have dissipated.

Not only Takeda, but most everyone feels this way.

They were all those who licked the blood on the battlefield, and there was more or less some anger in their chests, but now they felt peaceful.

Everyone suddenly became cautious and did not even dare to make any big moves for fear of disturbing the temple.

Mrs. Ning and Chu Weiqing had already gone to burn incense. They were standing by and could see their figures. Even if something happened, they would be able to stop them as soon as possible.

Takeda found something wrong. For some reason, many of the people coming and going here were from prosperous and wealthy families.

Whether they are women or men, most of them wear silk and satin, gold and silver, and their families are quite wealthy.

And each of their faces had a look of sadness.

Since you come to the temple to pray for blessings, it’s not surprising that you have a worried look on your face, but why are they all from wealthy families?

Takeda also saw a few familiar faces inside.

He is from the family of a local tycoon.

Something's wrong.

Takeda frowned tightly, something must have happened, it couldn't be such a coincidence.

He immediately stared at Mrs. Ning and Chu Weiqing more closely, fearing that something unexpected would happen.

Fortunately, there were no accidents throughout the process.

But Takeda's brows were furrowed and his expression was solemn.

"Master Wu, what happened?" a soldier asked in confusion.

Takeda let out a long breath, suppressed the complicated thoughts in his heart, and said, "Let's go back to the government office first."

On the way back, everyone did not encounter any more bandits, and their nerves relaxed.

Even though they are not afraid of these bandits, if Mrs. Ning and Miss Chu are accidentally injured, they really don't know how to explain to the adults.

After returning to the government office, Takeda went straight to where Zhao Jin was.

Zhao Jin had just finished reviewing some official documents and came out to get some air when he met Takeda walking towards him.

His face was a little gloomy, his legs were tight, and there was wind under his feet.

"You're back? But what happened on the way? You look like this?"

Zhao Jin asked, but he did not think of Mrs. Chaoning and Chu Weiqing. If something happened to them, Takeda would be in a hurry.

"Sir, we just met bandits on the way to Qingyin Temple, but no one was hurt."

When he heard the first half of the sentence, Zhao Jin couldn't help but feel excited.

It wasn't until Takeda finished the second half of his sentence that he breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "Where did you meet him?"

He has been in Yunzhou for some time, but he has never heard of bandits anywhere.

"The road on the west side of Riliang Mountain."

"Riliang Mountain?"

Zhao Jin pondered for a moment, "I have never heard of bandits there before, and the road in Riliang Mountain is a commonly used trade route. If there were bandits before, they must have caused a big problem. It is estimated that they only appeared in recent times."

"Have you found any other abnormalities?"

"Yes." Takeda looked a little worried, "When we were at Qingyin Temple, many wealthy people were praying, too many."

Zhao Jin understood what Takeda meant.

Although the ancients believed in gods and Buddhas and were keen to go to temples to pray for blessings and worship Buddha, on ordinary days, there would not be a large number of wealthy families praying at temples.

"Take people to check out Riliang Mountain and the road on the west side, what happened in recent days, and the identities of the wealthy people who went to Qingyin Temple to pray."

That is a commercial road. If there are bandits, the first to suffer is not the people, but the merchants.

"yes!"

Such an investigation really allowed Takeda and Zhao Jin to find a lot of wrongdoings.

"This group of people has set up camp in Riliang Mountain a long time ago, but they have never gone out to rob the mountain before. They came out gradually after the plague."

Because of this, no one knew that there was such a group of bandits on Riliang Mountain.

Takeda was puzzled, how could there be such bandits in the world?

"In the past, if they didn't come out to rob, how could they meet the needs of the village? They were all tall and strong."

As a bandit, he does not rob, but he can meet his daily needs for food and clothing in the mountains...

Zhao Jin's serious expression was filled with coldness, "So, someone must have provided them with food and clothing regularly in the past to support this group of bandits."

Back then, in Yi Niang's village, even if they robbed the wealthy families, they still couldn't keep up with the food. Many people were pitifully thin. There must be something wrong with this group of people on Riliang Mountain.
