Chapter 35: Capturing the Bandit Leader of Fenghuo Village
Jiang Ningwan rushed to the foot of the mountain of Fenghuo Village alone, and saw from afar that Lu Lingsong had led his men to attack the mountain, and there were people guarding every intersection at the foot of the mountain.
Jiang Ningwan spent some time observing and found that there was no one guarding this side of the steep mountain wall.
This should be the only breakthrough.
She immediately found a place to hide and observed secretly.
There were sounds of fierce fighting coming from the mountain, but there was no movement on the cliff.
Jiang Ningwan's body was a little stiff in the cold wind. Just as she was about to move, she saw a dark shadow on the cliff, slowly descending along the rope.
A hint of doubt flashed through Jiang Ningwan's mind.
Although the mountain wall is steep, it is possible to descend it using ropes.
Didn’t Lu Lingsong think of this? Why is this place undefended?
Soon, the black shadow landed on the ground, opened the bag on his back, immediately changed into ordinary clothes, dressed up, and ran towards the darkness.
Jiang Ningwan immediately followed quietly.
The man was very cautious and looked back after walking a distance to make sure there was no one around before continuing on his way.
The road ahead became increasingly remote and overgrown with weeds.
Following them to an abandoned land temple, the man took out a heavy bag from behind the stone statue of the land god.
He opened it and took a look, then chuckled twice, "That guy is quite trustworthy, this deal is worth it!"
Jiang Ningwan's eyebrows jumped. The bundle was full of gold!
Buy and sell? Whose business?
She also took this opportunity to take a closer look at the man's appearance. If she removed the beard and thick eyebrows, he would look exactly like the wanted portrait she had seen in her previous life!
It's him!
After confirming that the target was correct, Jiang Ningwan raised his gun and went forward.
The man sensed the murderous intent and turned around abruptly, rolling to avoid the spear and spat, "I knew you were breaking your promise!"
When he was about to flee, he found that there were no other pursuers. "Are you the only one?"
He threw a bag of gold far away and snorted coldly: "Even if Lu Lingsong was here, he might not be my opponent, what about you?"
"Such a beautiful girl, Lu Lingsong sent you to me to be my wife, right?"
The man pulled out the long whip from his waist and swung it towards Jiang Ningwan.
Jiang Ningwan gripped the spear tightly and swung it, cutting down a patch of weeds with murderous intent. He leaped towards the man with a swift and murderous attack.
The man was shocked immediately. Such strong internal strength and murderous aura meant that his martial arts skills were not weak.
The two fought for several rounds, but the man could not get close to Jiang Ningwan at all, and could not escape even if he wanted to.
Just when Jiang Ningwan was about to take him down.
Suddenly, hurried footsteps were heard from behind, along with a shout: "Jiang Ningwan!"
Jiang Ningwan was shocked. Why did Qin Beihuang come here?
At this moment, a cold look flashed across the man's eyes, and he threw out three poisonous darts. Jiang Ningwan dodged them by leaning back.
But then three poisonous darts flew towards Qin Beihuang.
He was limping and probably couldn't escape.
Jiang Ningwan leaped up and swept the spear in his hand, accurately knocking away three darts.
With a few whooshing sounds, the dart pierced into the tree trunk.
When I looked back again, the man had already run away.
Jiang Ningwan glanced at Qin Beihuang with disdain, "Are you here to cause trouble?"
"Hey...you..." Qin Beihuang didn't even finish his words before Jiang Ningwan turned around and chased after him.
It was Jiang Ningwan who saved him just now.
When did Jiang Ningwan become so skilled?
Without time to think, he followed immediately.
Jiang Ningwan chased him all the way to the road, but there was a town ahead. He couldn't be allowed to run into the town, as it would endanger the people.
Suddenly a carriage appeared. Seeing this, the man immediately rushed towards the carriage, intending to take hostages.
He rushed into the carriage, but was knocked out by a palm.
The moment the carriage curtain was lifted, Jiang Ningwan saw Qin Shuangchi with a cold face in the carriage.
Why is he here?
Without asking any more questions, Jiang Ningwan took the opportunity to rush forward and started fighting with the bandit leader.
The bandit leader gradually lost the battle and after being hit several times, his movements became slower and slower.
Qin Beihuang emerged from the woods and, upon seeing this scene, shouted, "Uncle, why aren't you taking action?"
Jiang Ningwan scolded, "Don't make trouble!"
This credit belongs to her alone!
No one can steal it!
Qin Shuangchi slowly put away the hidden weapon in his hand and said to Qin Beihuang in a cold voice, "She said not to cause trouble."
Jiang Ningwan quickened her movements, using all her strength, and delivered a final blow to the man's chest. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground, unable to get up.
Jiang Ningwan stepped on the man and looked towards the carriage, "Is there any rope in the carriage?"
There was silence in the carriage, but a set of ropes was thrown out.
There are even ropes, it’s really complete.
Jiang Ningwan immediately tied the man up tightly and opened the bundle on the ground. There was nothing inside except gold.
"He's just a bandit. Do you really need to take the risk alone?" Qin Beihuang limped forward.
Jiang Ningwan snorted coldly and tore off the man's beard and thick eyebrows. "Just a bandit? This is the leader of Fenghuo Village!"
Qin Beihuang was shocked when these words came out, "What!"
"How do you know he is the leader of Fenghuo Village?"
Jiang Ningwan glanced at him with disdain, "You talk too much."
After saying that, she grabbed the man by the collar and said, "You never thought that General Lu would let you escape. Of course he wants to silence you."
Upon hearing this, the man's face suddenly changed, and he cursed angrily, "It really is that bastard Lu Lingsong! He used his official career to promise me to spare my life, and then he took my map. I gave him all the credit for Fenghuo Village, and he actually went back on his word!"
Qin Beihuang felt more and more that something was wrong when he heard this.
Jiang Ningwan was also shocked.
It turned out that Lu Lingsong deliberately let the bandit leader go!
They reached a deal, and Lu Lingsong got the map of Fenghuo Village, so he was able to successfully wipe out Fenghuo Village.
"Didn't you think about today before the deal? How dare you cooperate with him?" Jiang Ningwan sneered.
"If there weren't a few idiots in the village who accidentally killed an official, would I have taken the risk of making a deal with Lu Lingsong?"
"If you kill the imperial official, Fenghuo Village will be wiped out sooner or later. I made a deal with him just to make some money and save my life."
This is much more reasonable.
The matter is clear.
Jiang Ningwan stood up and looked towards the carriage. "Uncle, since you're here too, you can be my witness. I was the one who captured this bandit leader!"
"As for whether Lu Lingsong's dealings with the bandits and deliberately letting the bandit leader go violate military law, I ask the Emperor to make the final decision!"
Of course she knew that Lu Lingsong's action was against the rules, but she just wanted to remind the two people present.
Lu Lingsong made great contributions in suppressing the bandits this time, but his contribution was at least halved.
Qin Beihuang was extremely shocked. "If Lu Lingsong didn't send you here, then how did you know the bandit leader had escaped?"
Jiang Ningwan glanced at him impatiently, "I haven't asked you why you're following me yet."
Fortunately, the bandit leader was caught. If he had run away because of Qin Beihuang, she would have to settle the score with Qin Beihuang.
Grabbing the bandit on the ground and picking up a bag of gold, Jiang Ningwan walked over to the carriage and asked, "Uncle, can you take me back with you?"
Hearing the word "imperial uncle", Qin Shuangchi felt a little unhappy.
"Come up."
