Signing in the Republic of China: starting from a foot patrol

Chapter 179 Please Answer, Ren 9

The terrain of Qipan Mountain is relatively steep. Except for the cliffs in the north, there are only a few narrow mountain roads in the remaining three directions.

The reason why Huo Yunshan, Guo Lang and the others were able to successfully attack Qipanshan was because Huo Yunshan knew that the back of Qipanshan was a cliff, and the bandits did not send anyone to defend it.

Therefore, Guo Lang sent dozens of soldiers from mountainous areas to climb up the cliff and caught the bandits by surprise.

Afterwards, Huo Yunshan set up ambushes on several small roads leading out of the mountain, and the fleeing bandits crashed into the encirclement and were completely wiped out.

This morning, on the rugged mountain road, a black and thin man was advancing up the mountain with several young and strong guards.

The black and thin man showed some dissatisfaction as he walked, "Xu Gouzi is becoming more and more outrageous. I have been walking in the mountains for so long, and I didn't even find a sentry."

"I think he has had a good life for a long time, and he has forgotten the days when he was licking blood with a knife!"

While cursing, the black and thin man made up his mind that when he saw Xu Gouzi, the leader of the Qipanshan bandits, he must give him a good reprimand!

However, not far away, the black and thin man suddenly heard a movement in the surrounding forest. Before he could react, several figures sprang out from the forest, and the muzzle of the black hole was aimed directly at them!

"Don't move!"

"Put down the guns!"

"Move, I'll kill you!"

Hearing this, the black and thin man subconsciously cursed: "You're blind, don't you recognize who I am!"

"Hurry up and put down the guns, be careful that I will slap you!"

However, these people in front of them didn't move at all, they still pointed their guns at them.

At this time, the black and thin man realized that something was wrong, why are these people so strange in front of him!

Moreover, their accents are not Jiangdu County accents, as if they came from the north.

The black and thin man reacted quickly. In an instant, a thought appeared in his mind:

"Oops, the kiln in Qipanshan was smashed!"

In the next second, more strangers appeared, and before the black and thin man continued to speak, the hard butt of the gun struck him head-on.

"Tom!"

After a burst of severe dizziness, the black and thin man passed out directly on the ground.

"What, how many people were caught alive?"

"And is he a housekeeper under Ren Anfu?"

Inside the county government office, Lin Hongfei said with some surprise.

In front of him, Wu Yongquan nodded: "Yes, this person is called Ren Jiu, and Yunshan knew him before."

"Yunshan sent someone to deliver a letter, and wanted to ask how we should deal with these people!"

Lin Hongfei showed a smile: "Ren Anfu's housekeeper must know many secrets of the Ren family."

"From his mouth, we will definitely get a lot of useful information!"

Speaking of this, Lin Hongfei stood up and straightened his clothes: "Go, I'm going to Qipanshan now!"

Lin Hongfei obtained some [Veritaserum] before, and last time he used it for the Dongying man named Masao Nakamura, and the effect was very good.

This time, let Ren Anfu's housekeeper use it once!

The county government kept some horses in captivity as a means of transportation. Lin Hongfei and Wu Yongquan led seven or eight guards on their horses, and then galloped out of the city.

Among the few clerks working in the county government office, there were also eyeliners of the gentry. Seeing Lin Hongfei taking people out, they took the opportunity to ask Chu Liangyi about Lin Hongfei's whereabouts.

"Oh, the county magistrate heard that there are several steles with inscriptions left by officials of the Ming Dynasty in Jiangdu County, so I plan to go and have a look at them. By the way, I will expand the inscriptions and give them to some literati friends as gifts when I return to the capital." Chu Liangyi responded. road.

There is nothing wrong with this reason, so the gentry's eyeliner did not doubt it.

Along the way, Lin Hongfei led his people to the foot of Qipan Mountain. The guards led the horses and hid in the nearby forest to avoid being discovered by outsiders.

Lin Hongfei and Wu Yongquan marched along the mountain road. On the way, they encountered several secret sentries hidden in the grass. Naturally, the sentries knew Lin Hongfei and Wu Yongquan.

Therefore, he hurriedly led the way and arrived at the location where Huo Yunshan and others were stationed.

"Yunshan, where is the person you caught?" Lin Hongfei didn't exchange pleasantries, and asked directly.

"Oh, here, in order to prevent them from escaping, we specially tied them up and kept them in the cave."

"And in order to prevent Ren Anfu's housekeeper, Ren Jiu, from recognizing me, I asked Guo Lang to arrange it." Huo Yunshan said.

"Yes, you are still very careful!"

"In this way, you take that housekeeper to a quiet cave alone, and I will personally interrogate him!" Lin Hongfei said.

Huo Yunshan nodded, and immediately asked a few soldiers to take the steward Ren Jiu into a somewhat damp cave. The strong hemp rope tied the man's body so tightly that he couldn't move at all.

"You'd better let me go. If Commander Ren knows about this, none of you will leave Qipanshan alive!"

"Commander Ren has a team of nearly [-] people, each of you can drown you with a spit!"

Ren Jiu kept yelling and cursing, trying to threaten the group of strangers occupying Qipanshan in front of him.

However, Ren Jiu was also muttering in his heart, how could Xu Gouzi and the others be wiped out by a group of outsiders by relying on the natural danger of Qipan Mountain?

In this way, the fighting power of these people can be imagined!

No, I have to find a way to tell Master Ren about this, and let him take precautions in advance.

Just as Ren Jiu was trying his best to break free, a figure came in from the cave. He was tall and strong, with a black cloth covering his face, covering his mouth and nose.

"You, who are you!"

Ren Jiu asked immediately, his eyes kept looking at the figure of this person, he always felt that this person looked familiar.

However, Lin Hongfei was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he directly took out the veritaserum, held Ren Jiu down, and then injected the veritaserum into Ren Jiu's body with a syringe amidst howling.

The veritaserum injected into his body took effect immediately, and Ren Jiu quickly noticed his strangeness. He found that he could no longer lie, and he still lost the ability to keep his mouth shut!

Looking at the frightened Ren Jiu, Lin Hongfei sneered and said, "Ren Jiu, don't think about it, you can't do anything now, the only thing you can do is to answer all my questions honestly."

"Tell me, what are you doing at Qipanshan?"

Hearing this, Ren Jiu wanted to keep silent, but for some reason, as soon as this question came out, Ren Jiu couldn't restrain his mouth and opened his mouth to speak.

"I, I'm coming to Qipanshan..."

Seeing that he had to speak, Ren Jiu wanted to make up nonsense, but when the nonsense came to his lips, it immediately became the truth!

"I came to Qipanshan to contact Xu Gouzi and the others, and plan to rob the caravan passing by Qipanshan!"

After saying this, Ren Jiu collapsed directly, what's going on, what happened, how did he become like this!
