The ancestor is here, she is here with space

The next morning, although the snow had not stopped, it was not as severe as the night before.

In the white world, the people who were knocked unconscious yesterday also woke up from the inn one after another.

With splitting headaches, everyone rubbed their temples and cast puzzled glances at each other.

"Why does my head hurt so much?" An officer rubbed his temple and frowned.

"Me too. Could it be that the wind and snow last night were too cold and I caught a cold?" another officer speculated.

At this time, Song Hongyi also came over rubbing his head.

"The snowstorm last night was indeed very strong, but it shouldn't be enough to give me such a headache." He shook his head, frowning, "Besides, I vaguely felt that something else seemed to have happened, but I can't remember it."

When the officers heard this, they were all stunned. They exchanged glances with each other, and an inexplicable sense of uneasiness surged in their hearts.

"Hurry, go and count the number of people to see if all the prisoners are here." Song Hongyi suddenly reacted and hurriedly gave orders.

There was a hint of urgency in his voice, as if he wanted to confirm as soon as possible whether everything was normal.

The officers immediately dispersed and began to count the number of people.

After a while, the officers came back to report, each with a look of surprise and doubt on their face.

"Sir, all the prisoners are here, no one is absent." An officer whispered with a tremor in his voice.

Song Hongyi didn't feel relaxed after hearing this. He took a deep breath, tried to suppress the uneasiness in his heart, turned around and looked at the white snow scene, but his heart was in chaos.

"What happened last night?" he muttered to himself, frowning, as if trying to find a clue in the vast expanse of snow.

Lin Congyun had already arranged for the antidote. Seeing the people in the General's Mansion and Huangjia Village slowly recovering their spirits, she felt relieved.

However, the path to exile did not become easy.

As the exile team moved forward, Lin Congyun's mood gradually became heavy.

The path of exile has not become less difficult.

The desolate wilderness, rugged mountain roads, and unpredictable weather made this exile full of dangers.

One day, the exile team came to a steep valley.

There are towering cliffs on both sides of the valley, with only a narrow passage in the middle.

The sunlight shines through the clouds onto the cliffs, casting a mottled light and shadow.

Although this was the first time they had seen sunlight in several days, it did not bring any comfort to the exile team.

On the contrary, everyone felt an inexplicable depression.

Lin Congyun's heart tightened. She looked up at the narrow valley and had an ominous premonition in her heart.

Just as the exile team was about to cross the valley, a strong wind suddenly blew in from the depths of the valley with a sharp whistling sound, as if it was going to swallow up the entire team.

The officer swung his whip on the ground, urging everyone to move forward quickly.

Just as the exiles had all walked into the valley, deafening shouts of killing suddenly came from both sides.

A group of ferocious bandits jumped down from the cliffs on both sides, holding weapons and with hideous faces.

They had obviously planned this in advance and were just waiting for the exiles to enter the valley.

Lin Congyun's heart sank to the bottom in an instant. She understood that this sudden attack was no accident.

The road to exile is already dangerous, and now they are encountering bandits, and everyone’s lives are in danger.

She looked around and saw that some officials were already panicking and the exiles were even more terrified. In the chaos, she was the only one who remained calm.

She took a deep breath, tried to suppress the uneasiness in her heart, and looked forward firmly.

At this moment, a bandit leader with a burly figure like a mountain and a ferocious face suddenly jumped down from the cliff. He held a big knife with a cold glow in his hand, with a grim smile on his face, and approached Lin Congyun's carriage step by step.

He looked at Lin Congyun unscrupulously, and a trace of disdain and contempt flashed in his eyes.

"Huh, even after being exiled by the imperial court, he can still afford to ride in a carriage. What a clever trick!" the bandit leader sneered.

When Lin Congyun heard this, he was slightly stunned.

The bandit's opening remarks seemed a little different from what she had imagined. Shouldn't he have said: This mountain is my own, and these trees are my own. If you want to pass through here, you have to leave some money for the passage?

The bandit's opening remarks seemed a little different from what she had imagined. Shouldn't he have said

At this time, Song Hongyi also rushed over after hearing the news. He held a knife in his hand, pointed at the bandit leader, and shouted angrily: "We are officials from the court. How dare you bandits openly block the road and rob us? Aren't you afraid of the court's laws?"

His voice was sonorous and powerful, trying to intimidate these bandits with the majesty of the court.

Upon hearing this, the bandit leader laughed out loud, his laughter full of disdain and ridicule.

He waved the big knife in his hand, pointed it at Song Hongyi, and sneered: "The court? Law? Humph, what is that? In this valley, I am the law!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the bandits behind him burst into laughter, as if they had no fear of the majesty of the court.

Song Hongyi was so angry at the bandit leader's words that his face turned blue. He gripped his knife tightly, ready to fight these bandits to the death.

However, Lin Congyun stretched out his arm to stop him.

"Sir, don't act rashly." Lin Congyun said calmly, "Since these bandits dare to block the road and rob here, they must have something to rely on. We need to outsmart them, not outfight them."

Although Song Hongyi was unwilling, he also knew that what Lin Congyun said was true.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and nodded in agreement.

Seeing this, Lin Congyun felt relieved. He turned to the bandit leader and said, "We are exiled from the imperial court and don't have much money. If you can let us go, we will be very grateful."

The bandit leader laughed wildly again, "Old man, when did I ever say I only wanted to rob you of your money?"

Lin Congyun couldn't help but roll his eyes in his heart, secretly complaining: Then why did they stop us?

The bandit leader's laughter echoed in the empty valley, like a knife cutting through iron, harsh and cold.

"So...what exactly do you want?" Lin Congyun asked tentatively, hoping to get some clues from the other party.

The bandit leader's laughter suddenly stopped. A ferocious smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he said viciously: "I want your lives!"

When Song Hongyi and Lin Congyun heard this, their faces suddenly changed.

They didn't expect that these bandits would be so unscrupulous. Not only did they not fear the laws of the court, but they also dared to openly seek lives.

Lin Congyun tried his best to remain calm and said to the bandit leader: "My dear, we have no enmity with each other, why do you want to take our lives?"

The bandit leader snorted coldly, "Who said we have no grudges or hatred?"
