The prince is very cruel

But Hai Mei did not give this opportunity. She jumped from the horse's back into the air, revealing her exquisite curves and her slender hands reflecting a hint of silver light.

shhhhhh...

That's a hidden weapon!

Puff puff……

boom! !

The three bandits fell to the ground, their pupils dilated, covering their necks. They wanted to speak but it seemed as if their voices were stuck, unable to utter a word. They could only twitch on the spot and die bit by bit.

"No, no..." The leading officer retreated in fear.

"Go talk to the King of Hell!" Guan Ning snorted coldly, and rode his horse over him without hesitation. He hated criminals the most in his life!

A gentleman may be lustful, but he must be lustful in a proper way!

Click...

The bandit vomited blood, his veins exposed, and died on the spot.

All four bandits were eliminated, and the wilderness suddenly became quiet.

Guan Ning dismounted and looked towards the weeds. A beautiful woman, disheveled, was hugging a man covered in blood and crying softly.

That voice was tear-jerking and vividly displayed the chaotic world.

In this great war in the Central Plains, it was always these unarmed civilians who were hurt.

Guan Ning took off his coat and asked Hai Mei to put it on the woman to cover up some of the torn and exposed parts.

Then he reached out and checked the man's injuries. Fortunately, he was not seriously injured.

"He's just unconscious, he won't die, don't worry."

The woman raised her head suddenly, her pale lips trembling: "Really?"

Guan Ning nodded.

"Thank you so much, benefactor, thank you so much!" The woman cried, knelt down and wanted to kowtow.

Guan Ning stopped him: "No need to do that."

"Let me help him stop the bleeding. We'll leave after he wakes up."

The woman burst into tears on the spot, crying so hard that she couldn't speak. She thought today was the end of her and her husband, but she didn't expect someone to come and save her suddenly.

Guan Ning quickly took action and applied some golden wound medicine to the man's open wound, which quickly stopped the bleeding. He then fed him some water, and the man gradually recovered.

The couple were extremely grateful to Guan Ning and his friend and were willing to kowtow to them three times no matter what.

Guan Ning had no choice but to wait until he finished knocking before helping him up.

"You two, please follow this road all the way southwest to Shu. It's relatively safe there."

The man, about forty years old, named Chen Yong, asked anxiously, "Where are our two benefactors? Aren't you leaving with us?"

"The Xiliang rebels have taken over the entire Qinghe County. Fighting is going on everywhere. It's very dangerous for you to go forward!" As he said this, he glanced at Hai Mei. If the Xiliang rebels saw such a stunning beauty, they would definitely...

Guan Ning smiled and said, "I'll be back later."

"I have something else to do here."

Chen Yong and his wife looked at each other and hesitated, "My benefactor, I can wait for you. Can we go together?"

It was obvious that both the couple were very frightened and still in shock, and they didn't dare to walk alone.

Guan Ning hesitated and glanced at Hai Mei.

"Then you'll wait for us here?"

Chen Yong took the initiative to say: "Benefactor, we are from this area. We are familiar with this place. If you don't mind, I can lead you."

Guan Ning raised his eyebrows: "Are you familiar with this place?"

The couple nodded.

Chen Yongdao said, "I came to Cangyun County with my grandfather when I was a child. Before the war, I was a merchant and often traveled around Qinghe County, so I'm very familiar with this place. If you need me, benefactor, I can be your guide!"

He could tell that this was Guan Ning's first time here, and his accent didn't sound like someone from this place.

Guan Ning's eyes lit up, it was so effortless!

"it is good!"

"Feihongdao, is it here?"

Chen Yong nodded, then shook his head violently: "This place isn't the right one. It's over there, behind the bushes. But no one dares to go that way now. The Xiliang rebels often appear there."

"Those with food will be robbed, and those with women will even be..." As he spoke, he gritted his teeth, feeling angry and helpless.

"Let's go and take a look." Guan Ning said.

"Ah?" Chen Yong was a little scared.

"Don't worry, we will protect you." Hai Mei opened her red lips slightly. Although she was a woman, her words and actions gave people a sense of aura.

"That's... okay."

"I'll lead the way for you two." Chen Yong took the initiative and walked to the front.

Hai Mei supported his wife behind him, while Guan Ning accompanied them to explore the way.

After passing through the bushes, the view suddenly opened up. This was a relatively flat official road that was not affected by rain, which would cause the road surface to become muddy and impossible for carriages and horses to pass through.

Therefore, this kind of official road has always been the most popular road in this era, and it is the best choice for marching and fighting.

"Benefactor, this is the road." Chen Yong lowered his voice and kept looking around, fearing that the Xiliang rebels would pass through.

Guan Ning was curious: "Are these rebels committing all kinds of evil, such as burning, killing, and looting?"

Chen Yong's face turned grim: "It's not much different."

"When they entered the city, they said they wouldn't harm the civilians, but the rebel leaders couldn't control them at all. They either looted or raped. Take Cangyun County, for example. Nine out of ten houses were empty. The men were either forced to work as laborers or sent to the army. The women were abducted and disappeared, leaving only the elderly, the weak, women, and children."

"If I hadn't spent all my wealth, my wife and I wouldn't have been able to get out of this situation."

Hearing this, Guan Ning was not surprised, but he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. He could only say that this world is a cruel place!

"Are there any other official roads nearby?" Guan Ning was serious and had to be sure, otherwise, if the people escorting the grain took other roads, all his efforts would be in vain.

Once the food enters the city, the difficulty of robbing it will increase tenfold!

"No, we are in a small place. We are lucky to have an official road. There are no main roads nearby. There are still some small roads left, but because of the heavy rain a few days ago, the road is muddy and it may not be easy to walk on it." Chen Yong explained everything.

Guan Ning nodded and said nothing more. Instead, he walked out directly and reached the highest position, constantly observing the entire Feihong Road.

This scared Chen Yong a lot. If the rebels saw this, he would definitely be captured and forced to do hard labor!

He tried to dissuade him again and again, but Guan Ning acted as if he didn't hear him. He kept observing the terrain around him, and no one knew what he was observing.

a long time.

Guan Ning jumped down from a rock and asked: "How far is the nearest post station?"

"Post station?"

"No, it's gone a long time ago. It's just a small place, and with the rebels heading north, who would dare to stay here?" Chen Yong complained.

"What about the place with water and grass? Is there any nearby?" Guan Ning's eyes were sharp and a plan came to his mind.

“Is there water and grass?”

Chen Yong recalled, and then said: "My benefactor, you mean the lake, right? There is indeed one nearby."

"Where?" Guan Ning raised his eyebrows.

"This way." Chen Yong pointed.

Guan Ning followed closely behind.

Hai Mei was curious and caught up with him, whispering, "Why are you looking for water and grass?"
