After fleeing famine, I have thousands of acres of fertile land

Boss Ye was relieved and took Old Xu and Lord Li to greet them.

"Sir, today we were lucky that someone from Ji Village came to help us, so we were able to hold on until you arrived."

Lord Li looked at Old Xu with complicated eyes and praised him, "Your village is benevolent and righteous. I will report it to Lord Wu."

Old Xu had never met such a high-ranking official before. This time, not only did he meet him, but he also received praise. He knelt down in greeting with excitement.

"Sir, we captured twelve bandits in the village tonight and arrested them all." Mr. Wan tied up the bandits and came over to report to Sir Li.

Lord Li looked him up and down, and seeing that he had no fatal injuries, he praised him with appreciation.

He waved his hand again and asked the people he brought to take over those bandits.

"Where is Guizi? Why can't I see him?" Lord Li looked around.

"Sir, he is in the village protecting the villagers. The bandits came in two groups." Mr. Wan didn't see Guizi and was worried about him.

Lord Li brought his men to the village. This time he brought more than 200 people and took over the village directly.

Boss Ye looked at the bandits who were being escorted over by the guards. Their mouths were so big that an egg could fit in them.

"Sir, these are." Boss Ye pointed at the bandits who were twice as many as before.

"We met those people on the way here. They didn't look like good people, so we arrested them all."

Ye Laoer watched a man with his hands tied being escorted over, and rushed over with gnashed teeth in anger.

"I'll beat you to death. You're the one who scratched me. I know you."

The soldier from the nearby guard post shouted, "Don't interfere with the investigation."

Although he spoke powerfully, he held the man in black in his hands and prevented him from moving.

Ye Laoer vented his anger for a while before the villagers persuaded him to let him go.

The villagers had just rested for a while and now they had some strength again, so they walked back to the village to look for their families.

"Dad, you're back. I was so worried about you." Ye Qing had just been helping to clean up the surroundings in an orderly manner, but when he saw Boss Ye, tears suddenly flowed down his face.

The same goes for Ye Xi. She is older now and can no longer throw herself into Ye Laoer's arms like she did when she was little.

The two looked at the two children with deep concern, their clothes were a mess of colors and covered in dirt.

There were still wounds on his body, which had been bandaged.

"Qingya, Xiya, you two should go and take a rest. Li Daren from the garrison has brought some people here, you two should go to sleep first."

"My father and mother are still in the mountains. It's dark here, and I don't know what's going on."

Boss Ye also thought of this. Li is old and relies on her daughters-in-law to carry her around.

Boss Ye sent the two of them to rest and hurried to find the village head.

The head of the village was crying to Lord Li with the children in the village.

"Sir, there are still bandits running away. Please lead the troops to eliminate them. They are too rampant. If it weren't for the two young men in the guard station who led us to resist, none of the villagers would see the sun tomorrow."

After saying this, he started to cry bitterly, and because of the injuries on his body, some people from Ji Cun and the guard post also started to cry.

Lord Li was also feeling bad. This time he was relying on the mountain village's quick response. He was able to take precautions just by staying overnight and following the footprints.

If it were any other village, they would probably have been killed in their sleep.

"Old man, I promise you that I will eradicate the bandits this time and will not let them harm the people again."

"Thank you, sir. You have captured those bandits and avenged us. Our village will build a shrine for you."

The head of the village suddenly thought of the captured bandits and hurriedly took people to capture them.

"Sir, we have captured the second in command of the bandits. He used to be a member of the Tiger Head Gang in Huzi Mountain. His brother Scarface was captured by us and sent to the authorities, so he came to avenge us."

Lord Li became interested, "Guizi, take the people over and start the trial now."

"Yes, sir." Guizi's wounds had been treated. He was familiar with the place, so it was perfect for him to lead the team to capture the person.

Boss Ye was watching anxiously and couldn't help but remind him, "Sir, the elderly and children in our village are still on the mountain. Please send someone to bring them down."

Lord Li thought he was hiding at home, but he didn't expect that he had already run away.

"Lao Fan, take twenty people with you and go to the mountain to bring the people back."

Lao Fan received the order and led his team up the mountain.

The villagers have seen him, and when he goes to the mountains to pick people up, he will not be mistaken for a bandit.

The second in command was wrapped like a cocoon, with rags stuffed in his mouth. When he saw the people around him, he whimpered.

"Take what's in his mouth." Lord Li ordered.

Ye Dalang wisely brought out a royal chair from the conference room and asked Lord Li to sit down.

A few more were brought over, and the village head was also asked to sit down.

Ye Qing and Ye Xi were attracted and no longer felt sleepy. They followed Boss Ye and looked towards the center of the field.

The second in command huddled into a ball in fear when he saw the people around him wearing guard uniforms.

"Are you from Erniu Mountain?" Lord Li asked directly.

The second in command just huddled into a ball, not saying a word, as if he could escape that way.

Seeing that he was acting like a coward, Guizi went up to him and slapped him a few times.

"I'm asking you a question. If you don't want to die, tell me now."

Guizi's hands were strong, and his face was swollen after a few hits. The arrow had not been pulled out of his body, and he was dying.

Everyone around was waiting for him to speak. Seeing that he hadn't said anything yet, Guizi took a few steps towards him.

The second in command was also a bully, and he was so scared that he quickly said, "I'm telling you, I just joined Erniu Mountain and haven't officially entered yet."

"How did you get in and become the second in command? They don't want outsiders." The guards had greeted each other so many times that they had already figured it out.

The second in command didn't expect them to know so much, so he could only tell the truth.

"The head of Erniu Mountain is the grandson of the seventh master of my uncle's cousin's family. We are real relatives."

"How dare you say that they are relatives after all the twists and turns." Ye Dalang muttered quietly beside him.

Obviously, people around you don’t really believe it. If you say he is your uncle, we don’t believe that you can be the second in command directly.

Guizi suddenly remembered something and whispered it in Lord Li's ear.

"You are so rich in the mountain, yet you still come out to rob. Your boss asked you to offer a reward with the money in the mountain village."

Lord Li obviously didn't believe the nonsense he just said, and he suspected that there was something else he didn't say.

The second in command's eyes were rolling around, and it was obvious that he was not being honest.

"I just said it casually to deceive them."

Ye Qing remembered something and pushed Ye Dalang, "Brother, did you find money in the village at that time?"

"No, my uncle said it's cleaner inside than my face, and there's just a little grain." Ye Dalang whispered to his sister.

Ye Dalang looked at Ye Qing's expression and a bold guess came to his mind.
