After entering the book, I emptied the warehouse of my foster mother's house to farm

Before Jiang Hao and Xu Xing sent Jiang Qiyao back, they had already gone to Shuntian Prefecture to report the case. Before the city gates were closed, Pei Jun was very reluctant but had to take the officials out of the city to "work overtime."

However, based on what Jiang Hao knew about the number of bandits and how ferocious they were, the number of officials from Shuntian Prefecture was far from enough to capture them.

The most important thing is that it is already dark, and they don’t know where the bandits are staying, and the police don’t know even more. So, as long as they enter the mountain, they will run around like headless flies, unable to even find other people’s doors.

The main purpose of Jiang Hao and Xu Xing asking Pei Jun to lead people out of the city overnight was to set up checkpoints at the top of the mountain to dissuade pilgrims from going up the mountain and to prevent bandits from escaping down the mountain overnight.

As for catching bandits, it is necessary to report to the court and mobilize troops.

This requires waiting until dawn to go to court.

After Jiang Hao and Xu Xing returned to the villa, they started talking about what happened today.

After listening to Xu Xing's words, Jiang Hao sneered: "It seems that someone has calculated us all."

Although Xu Xing's face was not cold, his eyes flashed coldly, and he asked with a little surprise: "What is the purpose of the person behind this?"

Jiang Hao was also puzzled at first.

However, she thought about it carefully later. The other party invited her to go up the mountain, and then set up a roadblock to block her on the mountainside. Then the bandits appeared and kidnapped No. 4 and Yueying. Combined with what the bandits said, she had a suspicion: "They wanted to destroy me and let you see it?"

"Destroy you?"

Xu Xing didn't quite understand.

But how do we explain those people who killed Jiang Qiyao?

The coachman, the old woman, and the maid, these are four lives!

In addition, why did the murderer let Jiang Qiyao go?

The most important thing is, how could Jiang Qiyao still be on the mountain at that time? Even if she went up the mountain to burn incense, she should have gone down the mountain and returned home long ago.

"Let's not talk about this for now. Once we catch the bandits and Jiang Qiyao wakes up, we can talk to each other and then we'll know the answer."

No matter how you guess now, it's all in vain.

Xu Xing knew that Jiang Hao was telling the truth, so he decided to let her go to sleep first.

As for what he wanted to ask Jiang Hao about the emperor, he decided to wait for a while.

Jiang Hao shook his head, stood up and said: "I always feel that this matter is not so simple. The appearance of these bandits is too strange. Although there is a curfew, it is not difficult for you and me to leave the city..."

"You want to leave town overnight?"

Xu Xing also stood up.

"Well, there were thieves in Ji's house two nights ago, and today someone used my mother to set a trap for me. However, it is obvious that the other party did not know that my mother had long been gone from Baiyun Temple."

So Jiang Hao has reason to suspect that these two things are likely related.

"Without further delay, we will leave the city now."

It was not difficult for the two top masters to escape from the city without being noticed. At three o'clock in the morning, they had already left the city successfully.

Pei Jun climbed to the position of Shuntian Prefecture Governor by relying on his political achievements. Even though he had many complaints in his heart, he was still meticulous in setting up checkpoints.

Not only did they set up checkpoints, but they also patrolled the foot of the mountain in groups of two.

When Xu Xing and Jiang Hao returned to the foot of the mountain, the people from Shuntian Prefecture had already brought down the carriages and corpses from the mountainside.

Pei Jun looked at the corpse and waved his hands repeatedly, signaling them to quickly carry it away. He turned around and saw Xu Xing, his eyelids jumped violently, but he greeted him enthusiastically: "My Lord."

"Is there anything unusual?"

Pei Jun shook his head: "No. However, I have ordered people to go up the mountain to Baiyun Temple and Baiyun Temple to see if they can find out something."
