"I really don't want my family to worry about this matter, I just want to solve it quietly!

Look at the weather, it’s already late. In my opinion, it’s better for the entire team to stay where they are.

Those bandits wouldn't dare to rush out rashly until we show up.

When night falls, we can sneak over and settle the score with them. What do you think?"

As soon as the words fell, Yun Yi and others responded:

"Madam Shen, this is a good idea. Let's do it, right, Master?"

"it is good!"

……

Almost at the same time, in the dense forest a mile away from here, a group of burly men with big swords on their backs were lying obediently and motionlessly in their pre-hiding positions.

As time passed, they gradually felt their bodies becoming stiffer and stiffer, especially their lower body. The numbness and soreness were almost unbearable.

At this moment, one of the big men with a full beard couldn't help but stick his head out and looked in the direction of the road, complaining non-stop:

"Bah... Why are these guys so slow? I'm almost numb.

Boss, how long do we have to wait here?"

Hearing this, the man known as the boss glared at him fiercely and shouted in his characteristic rough voice:

"Shut your stinky mouth! Be quiet! You're in a hurry! You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry!"

The bearded man was obviously a little dissatisfied and muttered:

"But Boss, it's no use just waiting like this! Why don't we just stop waiting and rush out to fight them and kill them without a single survivor!"

After hearing this, the boss was so angry that he blew his beard and cursed:

"Kill your ass! How dare you say such big words with your stupid brain?

The martial arts masters around the prince are not dead yet. Do you really think we can win 100% just by relying on our numbers?

I'll see you die without even knowing it!"

"No, big brother, it's not a good idea for us to just keep waiting like this, there might be something fishy going on!

Why not send a few people over to take a look?"

The person who spoke stared at the eldest brother with an anxious expression and a bit of eagerness to try.

The "big brother" pondered for a moment and said:

"Well, that's right. Then take Gazi, Erdan, and a few other smart brothers with you and go check out the situation quickly.

But remember to be cautious and don't reveal your whereabouts. If there is any disturbance or unusual situation, be sure to report back immediately!"

After getting the eldest brother's consent, the man quickly responded:

"Yes, don't worry, brother. We are very careful!"

After saying that, he called for Gazi, Erdan and others to leave in a hurry, and his figure soon disappeared into the mountains and forests.

Watching their receding backs, the people who stayed behind immediately relaxed and began to chat casually.

One of them asked curiously, "Tell me, how many valuable treasures did the young prince bring with him on this trip? The silver alone would probably fill several large boxes, right?"

As he spoke, his eyes flashed with greed.

The other one curled his lips in disdain and sneered:

"Hmph, you look so ignorant. What's a mere piece of silver to you? He's a prince, so what are he carrying? He's a rare treasure."

Hearing this, the people around burst into laughter, and some even laughed at him without hesitation:

"Hahaha... what a bumpkin!"

For a moment, the bandits started talking at once, filled with all kinds of speculations and fantasies.

Although they lowered their voices deliberately, their irrepressible excitement was clearly conveyed through their words, as if they had already pocketed all of the prince's treasures.

"Hey, what is that?"

At this moment, a bandit suddenly felt something cold falling from his neck.

He subconsciously reached out and gently pulled it, his face instantly showing ecstasy, and laughed loudly:

"Look, brothers! God has opened his eyes and dropped a treasure from the sky for us. It's a piece of jade..."

However, before he could finish his words, he felt a pain in his neck. In an instant, his vision went black and he completely lost consciousness.

The companions closest to him didn't even have time to react before they were splashed in the face with a warm and sticky liquid.

They were stunned at first, then reached out their hands and gently wiped their cheeks. After seeing the scarlet on their hands, they were all frightened and their faces turned pale - it was blood!

Looking at the brother who was still alive just now, his head and body were now separated, and he fell straight to the ground.

The bandits were suddenly frightened and broke out in cold sweats, and retreated desperately.

Then, a casual and lazy voice suddenly came from above their heads:

"Oh, I'm so sorry, I accidentally dropped it!

I was just trying to retrieve the jade pendant I accidentally dropped, but I didn't expect it would be such a coincidence that I ended up chopping someone's head off!"

Hearing this voice, the bandits were all startled, with expressions of fear on their faces. They quickly raised their heads and looked in the direction where the voice came from.

I saw a man and a woman standing side by side on a big tree above my head.

The man was tall and slender, with an extraordinarily handsome face, and he exuded an air of nobility; the woman next to him had a bright and charming smile, and the voice just now came from her mouth.

At this moment, a cold wind happened to blow, gently blowing up the strands of hair on the temples of the two people, making them look extremely beautiful, but also creepy.

"Who... who are you? Tell me your names quickly..."

The bandits were so frightened that their hair stood on end and they were stunned. Finally, their leader mustered up the courage to ask.

Looking at the two of them, his intuition told him that their identities were not simple.

Could it be, could it be, the man in front of me is:

"Prince...Prince? But isn't that prince a cripple?"

"Oh, I didn't expect that, Your Majesty, your reputation is so great that they actually recognized you!"

Shen Qingge joked.

But then, the bandit leader straightened up with a sneer on his face. The reason was that there were two people standing in front of him.

No matter how powerful they are, there are only two of them. What are you afraid of?

So he stood up and said viciously:

"Brothers, grab your weapons, don't let these two get away.

They are our moneybags!"

Upon hearing this, the bandits looked at the situation around them, raised their swords, and surrounded Xiao Heng and Shen Qingge.
