I trade in both worlds

The next morning, when the sun first came out, Xu Ziqi had already prepared bags of first aid medicine and handed them to Guo Yunfeng.

The two looked at each other, no need to say anything, everything was said without words.

"Everyone must return safely," Xu Ziqi said softly.

"Don't worry, we will be back soon." Guo Yunfeng smiled slightly, turned around and led the 112 bodyguards on the journey to Dead Snake Ridge.

Dead Snake Ridge, located between Dingzhou and Youzhou, is like a winding dragon, stretching across the land. Its terrain is steep, the mountains and forests are dense, and the clouds and mists are lingering, as if it is a paradise and hiding place for bandits.

Guo Yunfeng and his group walked along the winding mountain road, taking each step carefully. As they went deeper, an ominous atmosphere began to fill the air, and the occasional bird calls seemed particularly mournful.

Guo Yunfeng's eyes were sharp as torches. He whispered, "Everyone be careful and be alert. The terrain of Dead Snake Ridge is complicated and the bandits are cunning. We must not be careless."

The team gradually slowed down, taking every step carefully, for fear of alerting the bandits in the mountains.

As they were walking, a sharp-eyed escort suddenly pointed ahead and whispered, "Captain Guo, look quickly."

Guo Yunfeng looked in the direction of his finger and saw a makeshift camp in the valley ahead.

Around the camp, the bandits were sitting or lying, some were sharpening their weapons, some were chatting, and they were obviously unaware of the impending danger.

Guo Yunfeng quickly gathered the team together and discussed countermeasures in a low voice.

He said in a deep voice: "It seems that we have found the hiding place of the bandits. Although there are not many bandits, the terrain is extremely favorable for them. We must act cautiously and ensure that we hit the target with one strike."

After a brief discussion, Guo Yunfeng divided the escorts into several teams, and each team approached the camp from different directions. He personally led a team to slowly approach from the front to attract the bandits' attention. The other teams, using the cover of the mountains and forests, quietly approached the sides and rear of the camp.

As the distance got closer, Guo Yunfeng's heartbeat became faster and faster.

He took a deep breath, swung the spear in his hand violently, and shouted loudly: "Go."

Suddenly, the escorts rushed towards the camp like tigers descending from the mountains.

The bandits were startled by the sudden attack, but they quickly reacted and took up their weapons to fight.

However, they obviously underestimated the fighting ability and tacit understanding of the escorts.

Under Guo Yunfeng's command, the escorts each performed their duties and cooperated seamlessly.

Some were responsible for frontal attacks, drawing the bandits’ firepower;

Some attacked from the side to disrupt the bandits' formation; others were responsible for covering their retreat to prevent the bandits from escaping.

The battle broke out in an instant, and amid the flashing of swords and sabers, the escorts fought bravely and without fear.

Guo Yunfeng led the charge, wielding a spear and charging left and right among the enemy, invincible.

Whenever a gangster tried to escape, he would appear in time and kill him with his gun.

However, the criminals were no ordinary people.

Although they are few in number, each of them is agile and familiar with the terrain.

After the initial panic, they quickly adjusted their tactics and used the cover of the mountains and forests to launch a counterattack.

For a moment, the battle fell into a stalemate, with swords and spears clashing, and shouts and screams intertwined and echoing between the valleys.

Guo Yunfeng had a sharp gaze and a nimble body. He shuttled across the battlefield like a dragon, and wherever he went, the bandits retreated one after another. But he knew very well that this would only be a war of attrition and it would be difficult to achieve a quick victory.

"This is not a solution." Guo Yunfeng thought to himself. He quickly looked around, trying to find the leader of the bandits.

The bandit leader must be found as soon as possible and killed in order to undermine the bandits' fighting spirit.

Just as he was searching anxiously, a burly figure came into view.

The bandit leader was tall, holding a large knife that gleamed with cold light. He was standing on a huge rock and directing the bandits to fight back.

His eyes were fierce and his voice was hoarse and powerful, as if a beast was roaring.

It was him. A cold light flashed in Guo Yunfeng's eyes, and he quietly approached the leader, using a huge rock to hide his figure.

His heartbeat quickened, but he remained calm, waiting for the perfect moment to strike.

Finally, the moment the bandit leader turned around, Guo Yunfeng suddenly jumped up and stabbed the leader's chest with his spear like lightning.

The bandit leader also reacted very quickly. He swung his knife to block, and the blade collided with the spear, making a crisp metallic sound.

But Guo Yunfeng's spear was like a snake emerging from a cave, deftly bypassing the blade and going straight for the leader's vital point.

With a "puff" sound, the spear pierced the leader's chest and blood gushed out.

The bandit leader screamed, his eyes widened in disbelief, and then fell to the ground with a bang.

As their leader fell to the ground with a loud bang, the bandits' fighting spirit seemed to be instantly drained away.

They were stunned for a moment, and then like fallen leaves in the autumn wind, they dropped their weapons, knelt on the ground, held their heads in their hands, trembled, and pleaded and cried.

"Please spare us, we won't dare to do it again."

"Please spare us, hero. We were forced to take this path."

Guo Yunfeng stood on a high place, his eyes sharp as torches, scanning this group of former villains.

He did not relax at all, but became even more vigilant.

He knew very well that although these bandits had been captured at the moment, the greed and evil in human nature had not disappeared, and they might still make a comeback and endanger others.

"Tie him up!" Guo Yunfeng ordered in a deep voice, with unquestionable authority in his voice.

The escorts acted quickly, tying up the bandits one by one, ensuring that they had no power to resist.

"Captain, how do we deal with these bandits?" An escort stepped forward and asked, with the joy of victory flashing in his eyes.

"Take them back to Dingzhou and hand them over to the government for punishment." Guo Yunfeng said in a deep voice, his eyes were firm and his tone was unquestionable: "Although they have been captured, their evil deeds are hard to change, and they must be punished by law."

After the battle, Guo Yunfeng did not evacuate immediately, but instead led the escorts to search the camp carefully.

These bandits have committed many evil deeds, and they must have a lot of ill-gotten gains hidden here.

Soon, a secret cave was discovered, filled with gold, silver, treasures, and all kinds of looted property.

The jewels sparkled, the gold and silver shone brightly, but Guo Yunfeng's brows were furrowed.

"There are a lot of gold, silver, treasures and stolen property here." An escort shouted excitedly.

Guo Yunfeng frowned and sighed inwardly. These should have been the hard-earned money of the people, but now they have become the spoils of the bandits.

His eyes were deep, and his heart was filled with sympathy for the people and hatred towards the bandits.

"Confiscate all the property and bring it back to Dingzhou." He ordered in a firm tone.

The escorts acted quickly, packing up the valuables one by one and preparing to take them back.
