Drunk Bamboo

Three people against thirty or forty people, one against ten.

The bandits were no match for Hua Qinfeng and his gang.

The leader saw that something was wrong and immediately shouted, "Old Five, hurry up and move the silver up the mountain!"

"yes, Sir!"

As he spoke, Lao Wu ran into the woods, and then three huge white balls rose in the woods.

"This is..." Hua Qinfeng said in surprise.

The bandit leader laughed and said, "This is a huge Kongming lantern. I'm afraid you big shots have never seen one before! Haha! I'll open your eyes today!"

Soon, Lao Wu and a few others moved the silver from the carriage into the basket under the Kongming lantern.

Several people pulled the rope under the Kongming lantern, and the giant Kongming lantern rose into the sky and flew towards Lou Mountain.

Zhang Xinghe was surprised and frowned slightly.

The bandit leader took advantage of the moment when the three men were distracted by the Kongming lantern rising into the sky, threw out a few smoke screens, turned around with a wicked grin and ran towards Loushan.

"You guys hold on, I'll go after the silver!" Hua Qinfeng said as he flew away.

"My Lord, be careful!"

Zhang Xinghe and Xiong Kuo stayed behind to deal with the remaining bandits.

And in the forest that they couldn't see, stood Wang Qingming, safe and sound.

By the time the bandit leader went up the mountain, Lao Wu had already unloaded the silver from the Kongming lantern.

Lao Wu said excitedly, "Brother, there are thirteen boxes, three more than last time! Should we sink them into the river first like last time or wait for Master Wang?"

"Lord Wang said, proceed as planned."

"But the man down the mountain is the God of War, the Wind King. I heard he's very powerful. The smoke just now had no effect on him. It doesn't necessarily mean that the brothers down the mountain can't be his match."

The eldest brother looked confident: "The smoke is useless, and there is also a power-dispersing poison. Lord Wang had already added the power-dispersing poison to the food last night. It will take effect as soon as we exert force today. Even if he can catch up to the mountain, he will not have the strength to fight us anymore."

Lao Wu said excitedly: "Lord Wang is indeed our think tank!"

"The Lord Wang you are talking about is Wang Qingming?"

The two of them turned around and saw Hua Qinfeng standing in front of them. They were so scared that they froze on the spot.

The fifth brother took a step back tremblingly: "Brother, it's the God of War, King Feng! He's coming up!"

The eldest brother calmed himself down and said bravely, "As expected of the God of War, you came up so quickly. However, even if you come up, you still can't do anything to us. You can only watch us take all the silver away!"

Hua Qinfeng clenched his sword and approached step by step: "Now that I'm here, you can't take a box of silver with you!"

The murderous aura was so strong that the bandit leader was frightened and pushed the other bandits out: "Old Five, take the silver and run! The rest of you, come and kill him together!"

His eyes were cold and stern: "You are quite arrogant."

He swung the sword once and raised it twice, and the person in front of him was dead.

The speed is extremely fast and the sword is deadly.

"You...how come you still have the strength? You must have been poisoned by the power-dispersing poison. How can you still be so powerful?"

"Dispersing power poison? What can this little poison do to me?" He has the antidote pills prepared by Xie Yuzhu, and ordinary poisons are useless to him.

Last night, he and Zhang Xinghe had already discovered that the food had been tampered with. They pretended not to know, but in fact they had already taken the antidote.

But the performance cannot be too fake. The guards at the foot of the mountain were really poisoned, which is why they are so vulnerable.

In order to lure out these bandits and Wang Qingming, Hua Qinfeng had put in a lot of drama. He had endured it before, but he didn't need to endure it anymore today.

Finally, he knocked the fifth brother unconscious and placed the sword against the eldest brother's shoulder.

"Tell me quickly, besides Wang Qingming, who else is behind this?"

The bandit leader knelt down and begged for mercy: "Your Majesty, please spare my life, Your Majesty, please spare my life. We are also following the orders of Lord Wang. I don't know who is above us!"

"Lord Wang promised us that as long as we succeed in robbing the silver, he would set us free, give us enough silver, give us new identities, and let us have no worries about food and clothing in the future!"

With the sword close to his neck, Hua Qinfeng threatened: "Let you go free? Where have you been hiding these days?"

The boss dared not to tell the truth: "We are all convicted of serious crimes and imprisoned in the county jail. We went back to jail after robbing the silver and have not been released until today. We really don't know anything!"

"So you are criminals. No wonder we can't find any trace of you."

Wang Qingming used his power as the county magistrate to train the treacherous and evil people imprisoned in the prison into bandits who robbed silver. How did he come up with this idea?

"Clap-pop-pop-"

There was applause.

Wang Qingming calmly appeared on the top of the mountain and looked at Hua Qinfeng with praise:

"Your Highness is really capable. He was able to catch up with me up the mountain and even got me to reveal my cards. I really underestimated your Highness."

"What a great man, Wang Qingming, who disregarded the law, abused his power, robbed the government silver, and embezzled the money. Do you know your crime?"

Wang Qingming laughed loudly, which was completely different from his usual smile with lowered brows.

"Hahaha, even at this time, Your Highness is still speaking so righteously. Can't you see the situation clearly? In fact, after spending these days with Your Highness, I found that although Your Highness has a hot temper, he is also straightforward. To be honest, I don't hate Your Highness."

"It was the prince's impulsive confidence that gave me the opportunity to take advantage of him."

Hua Qinfeng looked angry.

"You despicable villain, you are also the county magistrate of Jiangbei County. You know how important the silver is to the people of Jiangbei County, but you still hijack the silver again and again. Do you want to kill innocent people?"

Wang Qingming walked towards him slowly, followed by five masked men, holding swords and with sharp eyes, they were obviously trained killers.

"Your Highness, you don't understand. I am doing this for the entire Rao Kingdom. Only a true wise ruler can bring hope to the future of Rao Kingdom. These people sacrificed their lives for the prosperity and peace of Rao Kingdom in the future. They are all meritorious officials. In the future, I will definitely erect tombstones for them so that future generations can admire and commemorate them and their names will be passed down through the ages."

Wang Qingming held his head high, looking as if he was ready to sacrifice himself.

Hua Qinfeng said with a "Pah" sound, disdainfully:

"Hypocrisy, these are all your excuses! Who are you working for?"

Wang Qingming turned his gaze towards Hua Qinfeng and sneered, "The Crown Prince is in Yu Town, and the Prince is here. How many people in Zhongdu can have such talent that can impress me? The Prince should be very familiar with this person of extremely noble status."

Someone familiar?

An extremely noble status?

Hua Qinfeng's face turned pale: "Is it... Fifth Brother?"

Wang Qingming did not admit it directly, but he acquiesced.

"My lord, I didn't want to harm your life, and that noble man wanted to spare your life, but you know too much, so your life must remain here."

Wang Qingming turned around and said to the five masked killers, "Go ahead."

There was a flash of cold light, and the bandit leader died.

In the blink of an eye, the fallen bandits were slashed on the neck and died instantly.

Hua Qinfeng was surprised: "You, you even killed your own people!"

He had left a few people alive to be taken back for interrogation, but now they have all been killed.

Wang Qingming said coldly: "They are just criminals, pawns in my hands, and they should have died long ago. Do you really think I will let them go?"

Hua Qinfeng questioned the masked killer in front of him: "Who are you?"

"The person who takes your life."

As he spoke, he stabbed Hua Qinfeng fiercely with the sword.

Amidst the flashing of swords and the shadow of sabers, Hua Qinfeng faced five skilled killers.

He did not fall behind and quickly dealt with the four men.

There is only one person left, and he has to be taken back as a witness.

When Wang Qingming heard no more sound, he turned around and unexpectedly discovered that it was Hua Qinfeng who won.

"How could this happen? Even after being poisoned by the power-dispersing poison, he was still able to deal with all these killers!"

Wrong decision! Is he immune to all poisons? !

Hua Qinfeng ignored Wang Qingming, a weak scholar who could not escape from his control.

He placed his sword on the neck of the only female assassin: "You are the only one left. I will not hurt women. If you surrender and follow me back to Zhongdu to be a witness, I will ask His Majesty to spare your life."

The female killer looked coldly: "No need."

"Then I will cripple your hands and feet!" and take him back.

A palm strike on the chest.

The killer immediately spat out blood.

"spray--"

Hua Qinfeng threatened: "You are already seriously injured and are no match for me. I will give you one more chance. Come back to Zhongdu with me."

The female killer covered her chest and gasped: "I must complete my mission, so we must die together!"

Hua Qinfeng opened his eyes wide.

The female killer used all her strength to rush towards Hua Qinfeng, and the two of them fell off the cliff together.

It was quiet on the top of Lou Mountain.

Wang Qingming came back to his senses, slowly walked to the edge of the cliff, looked down, and saw white clouds and mist.

"As expected of the Wind King, with such amazing skills, if he surrenders to King Wen, he will definitely be the pillar protecting the Rao Kingdom in the future."

"Pity……"
