Su Bai and Kong Dai exchanged a quick glance, which was noticed by Kong Yun: "What's wrong? I didn't lie to you. There were only a few bandits left in Honghuagou to watch over the house. When we went there, they didn't even dare to make a sound."

"Uncle Kong, do you know how many people there were in Honghuagou originally?" Su Bai asked Kong Dai.

Kong Dai was relatively familiar with the situation. Before Panlong Cave was suppressed, Honghuagou was the weakest of the three bandit gangs. It was difficult to tell the exact number, but it was probably around seventy or eighty people.

Originally there was only one group of bandits in Xishan, led by Tang Sanwa's brother Tang Erwa. Shilifeng and Honghuagou were their territories.

When Xu Laohei moved from Beishan to Xishan, the two sides fought a battle. In the end, Xu Laohei won and occupied Shili Peak, and Tang Erwa retreated to Honghuagou.

In fact, over the years, there have been many frictions of varying sizes between the two sides. Because Old Black Man Xu had more guns and more weapons, the Tang brothers always ended up losing.

Two years ago, Tang Erwa died in an accident while going down the mountain to rob. Xu Laohei took the initiative to send some gifts to show his goodwill, and the two sides calmed down and there was no more conflict.

After Tang Erwa died, Tang Sanwa took over as head of the family.

However, Kong Dai said that the Tang brothers had always had a bad reputation. They would rob people regardless of their wealth when they went down the mountain, and would often kill them after robbing them.

Kong Yun asked, "Could it be that this Tang Sanwa felt that he had committed too many sins and became a monk to atone for his sins?"

Su Bai looked at her, you are so naive, but he basically agreed with her opinion: "I think it is possible."

Miss Kong Man, who had been listening to the conversation, spoke up: "After committing so many sins, won't he suffer retribution if he becomes a monk in a temple? Why would Dongtian Temple ordain such a person?"

"Okay, this is none of our business," Su Bai, who had just sat down, stood up and said to Kong Dai, "Uncle Kong, let's go to the front yard and see how the digging is going."

Su Bai wanted to talk to Kong Dai alone, but he was embarrassed to kick the eldest and second daughters out, so he had to find this excuse.

But the eldest daughter saw through it, and she said indifferently: "If you don't want us to hear it, just say it!" Then she said to the second daughter: "Let's go!"

Su Bai said bluntly: "Some things I don't want you to know are for your own good, don't be ungrateful!"

The four of them left the backyard together, and Su Bai and Kong Dai came to the front yard lobby.

The two discussed together whether the batch of gold bars left by the master was really related to Dongtian Temple.

It seems that besides the brothers Kong Chen and Kong Li, there is someone else who knows about the master's gold bars.

Tang Sanwa must have known the news before he entered the Dongtian Temple and dug the temple thoroughly inside and out.

They did not find any gold bars; if they had, they would not have stayed in the temple.

As for the monks in Dongtian Temple, I'm afraid they are in great danger.

In this case, if the word "Dong" that Confucius left before his death really represents Dongtian Temple, this batch of gold bars would be very difficult to find.

"We..." Kong Dai hesitated for a moment and gave Su Bai an idea. After the bandit suppression is over, we will let Yang Huasen's troops kill the fake monks in Dongtian Temple, and then find the cabinet in Dongtian Temple that can be used with the key in Su Bai's hand.

This method might be feasible, but Su Bai felt the hope was slim.

"Let's talk about it later," Su Bai thought that this matter should not be acted rashly. Such a big commotion would definitely alarm Kong Li. It would be easy to find the gold bars, but if not, it would bring new troubles.

This time, more than 2,000 people went up the mountain to suppress the bandits. Although the military doctors were blindfolded when they went to Yang Huasen, they will definitely continue searching in the direction of Beishan after suppressing Xu Laohei. Su Bai asked Kong Dai to find Xiao Chunhong again. If it is still in time, he will send another letter to the mountain to let Liu Yiyan and Yang Huasen be careful.

Kong Dai told Su Bai not to worry. Both Liu Yiming and Yang Huasen were usually on guard on the hill outside the base. They would discover the group of people before they got close and it would still be in time for them to run away. These soldiers usually could not outrun the bandits once they entered the mountains.

But Su Bai still asked Kong Dai to find Xiao Chunhong. Even if he didn't need to send a letter to the mountain, he could still find out if there was any news from the mountain.

Kong Dai walked for more than an hour before coming back, and Xiao Chunhong had not received any news from the mountain.

"Uncle Kong, are you in love with Xiao Chunhong?" Su Bai asked.

"Hey, why do you say that, Madam?" Kong Dai showed an unwilling expression.

"If you really like Xiao Chunhong, I'll pay for her and you can just keep her as your wife, okay?" Su Bai even thought that if Xiao Chunhong was willing to follow Kong Dai, he would pay to redeem Xiao Chunhong and let her be Kong Dai's wife.

Kong Dai is not even 60 years old yet, maybe he can still have a child?

Unexpectedly, Kong Dai got angry.

Although he didn't dare to get angry with Su Bai, he still felt angry and his face turned red.

He went to find Xiao Chunhong in order to get in touch with the people on the mountain. This was the order from the eldest young lady. In order to conceal his tracks, he would stay in Xiao Chunhong's room for a while every time he went there.

Looking at Kong Dai's expression, I felt that I had really wronged him.

Su Bai had no choice but to change the subject and asked Kong Dai if he knew what Xiao Chunhong did before entering Zuihuayuan, whether she was sold to Zuihuayuan when she was young, and how Liu Yiyan recruited her as an informant.

Although Xiao Chunhong is not very old, she is already an old employee of Zuihuayuan.

It was a third in command of Panlong Cave who fell in love with her. He not only kept her as his wife, but also wanted to redeem her. Unexpectedly, during the first ambush on Kong Li, the third in command was beaten to death.

Later, Liu Yizhong asked Tietou to tell her that he would redeem her and find her someone to marry after she became a good woman, but she refused.

The third in command was already dead, so she gave up the idea of ​​becoming a good woman.

Liu Yiyan had no choice but to give her some money as a consolation.

"So it seems that Liu Yiyan is a very affectionate person," Su Bai said.

"Yes, although Commander Liu behaves a little bit naughty, he is a good man, loyal, righteous, and kind-hearted."

Su Bai looked at Kong Dai and found that there was a hint of excitement in his eyes when he praised Liu.

"It seems that Uncle Kong knows Liu Yiyan very well!"

Kong Dai smiled: "I also heard it from Deputy Commander Yang. Deputy Commander Yang is also a good man, loyal and brave, and righteous. When he and Commander Liu met, they were heroes who appreciated heroes, and they got along very well."

This is indeed true. It can be seen from this refuge in the mountains that Liu Yiyan and Yang Huasen have a good relationship.

However, to say that these two people are heroes... is too far-fetched.

Su Bai and Kong Dai have different opinions. Liu Yiyan has only a dozen people, while Yang Huasen has five or six hundred people. It is very likely that Liu Yiyan fooled Yang Huasen.

It was Liu Yiyan who needed Yang Huasen, not Yang Huasen who needed Liu Yiyan.

It can be seen that Yang Huasen is more orthodox and serious. If he meets Liu Yiyan's big mouth, he will be blown away by him, right?
