Chapter 14 Not necessarily tonight

This day was another full day of running around.

At night, Mo Qingwan was resting when she suddenly heard Zhao Feng calling her softly.

"Wanwan, wake up quickly!"

"Dad?" Mo Qingwan rubbed his eyes.

"There are a lot of people coming around. It sounds like there are quite a lot of them. They are probably bandits. If there is a fight later, you guys should run into the woods and find a place to hide. I will break up the rear."

Zhao Feng has been fighting all year round and has excellent eyesight and ears.

Mo Qing glanced at several officials at night and saw that they were still asleep, thinking that maybe they were drunk.

Mo Qingwan hurriedly whispered to Zhao Feng: "Father, our opportunity has come."

"Opportunity?" Zhao Feng was puzzled.

Mo Qingwan immediately leaned into Zhao Feng's ear and whispered.

After hearing this, Zhao Feng's eyes lit up, "What a great plan!"

Mo Qingwan smiled and took advantage of the darkness to quietly take out a few bottles of Xiaoyao from his vest, then woke up the Zhao family one by one and stuffed a bottle into each of their hands.

"Father said there is an ambush nearby. They are probably bandits. If someone wants to catch you later, sprinkle this powder on his face. Remember to hold your breath." Huang Suisui instructed.

"Wanwan, what is this?" Mu asked softly.

"This is Xiaoyao San from Shenglong Pavilion," Mo Qingwan replied.

"What?" Mu almost shouted: "Isn't this... the medicine?"

"Yes, mother, this medicine can make your whole body weak. We can't care about anything else now," Mo Qingwan said.

She just followed her memory and randomly took some medicine and hid it in her vest. After all, time was tight at that time and there was no time to choose.

Zhao Guilin didn't understand, and asked: "Mother, what kind of medicine is it?"

"Ahem... don't ask the kids," Mu said awkwardly.

She looked at Mo Qingwan, how could her daughter-in-law have this medicine? Are the rumors among the servants true?

Did she really covet her second son?

Mo Qingwan didn't know what she was thinking. She wiped some mud from the ground, smeared it on her face, and then ruffled her hair vigorously.

"Follow me and get your face dirty. Bandits are no joke, especially your second brother. Get your face dirty. You look so good..."

As soon as these words came out of his mouth, Mo Qingwan wanted to bite off his tongue.

She raised her head and looked at everyone in embarrassment. Unexpectedly, no one looked at her except Zhao Guilin, whose face was red.

"What Wanwan said is, make it messy quickly," Zhao Feng said.

The Zhao family hurriedly nodded and followed suit.

Not long after, in the darkness, footsteps slowly sounded in the forest ahead. It sounded like there were quite a lot of people.

"Here we come," Zhao Feng asked several people to hide behind the tree, holding Xiao Simin tightly in his arms, while Zhao Guilin held Xiao Yanlin.

Xiao Yanlin held Zhao Guilin's arm in fear, and his body kept shaking.

"Don't be afraid, I will protect you!" Zhao Guilin patted his hand and said, looking at Mo Qingwan.

Xiao Yanlin shook his head vigorously: "I...I'm not afraid! I also want to protect you."

After all, Li Qiang was a martial arts practitioner. He soon heard the noise and jumped up immediately.

When I woke up, I saw the Jin Yiwei holding a knife and standing in front of the stone, staring straight ahead.

He immediately woke up the other two people and ran to Jin Yiwei's side.

"Who?" Li Qiang asked.

The Jin Yiwei stared at the front with vigilance, shook his head and said: "I don't know, the steps are very chaotic, there are many people, and the three leaders are masters."

"Is there any chance of winning?" Li Qiang asked again.

I saw the corners of his lips curl up: "The mob."

Lin Zheng didn't see the Zhao family and asked anxiously: "Brother Li, where are those exiles?"

"Hiding behind the tree," Li Qiang glanced in the direction of Mo Qingwan and the others.

"Coward! You're still a general," Lin Zheng cursed.

After a while, dozens of people crowded out of the woods.

Standing at the front were two men and one woman. One was holding a long sword, the other was holding two axes, and the woman was carrying a long spear.

The silver spear head and red spike tail look so majestic.

Mo Qingwan saw it from a distance and thought that this was not the female knight in a martial arts novel.

Li Qiang and others all worked in Beijing and had never gone through this journey of escorting.

However, Lin Zheng remembered the rumors in this area. He thought they were rumors, but he didn't expect them to be true.

"Brother Li, before I came here, someone told me that there were bandits in this section, especially the female bandit leading them, who is very skilled in martial arts. I thought they were trying to scare me, but I didn't expect it to be true."

Li Qiang looked at the dark crowd with a sullen face: "Since they are bandits, they are seeking money and will not offend the officers and soldiers. I will go talk to them and see if they can let us go."

He put the knife into the scabbard, stepped forward, and shouted: "We are officials of the imperial court, and we have been ordered to escort prisoners. Who is coming through this place?"

Unexpectedly, he waited for a while, but there was no response from the other party. Dozens of pairs of eyes stared at him, but no one responded.

The wind was a bit strong at night, making Li Qiang's back feel cold, and his palms became sweaty.

"We don't have much money, can you please let us go?"

At this time, a man who was only the height of a six- or seven-year-old child emerged from the crowd and walked to the leading woman. The woman immediately possessed him and whispered a few words to him.

"Hahaha, you, this official, are full of lies. Our fourth master clearly heard it today. What did you say about jade tokens worth a thousand taels? Sure enough, there is no good person in this official, except..." the female bandit said with a smile.

Li Qiang was shocked. They spoke so quietly at that time. How did these people know?

Could it be that someone was already ambushing around and eavesdropping at that time, but not to mention a few of them, not even the Jin Yiwei noticed it.

"Don't think about it. Our Fourth Master's ability to listen to sounds while hiding from the ground is something that no matter how powerful a master is, we can't detect it, let alone you losers," the man holding the ax said with a smile.

When Li Qiang heard this, he was so angry that he wanted to give up the jade pendant as soon as he got it.

Lin Zheng was also very angry: "Brother, we have Mr. Tian here. Which of the Jin Yiwei is not a master who can beat ten with one? Are we still afraid of these people wearing straw sandals? We can't give them that jade, otherwise my brothers and I won't be working in vain?"

"

Li Qiang had never seen this Jin Yiwei take action. He only knew that his name was Tian Ke and knew nothing else about him, so he was not sure.

Li Qiang spoke first: "You bunch of untouchables who ignore the laws of the imperial court are looking for death?"

When the female bandit heard this, her face suddenly darkened, she drew her spear and said coldly: "I hate you officials the most. You call us untouchables? You are just a dog of the thief emperor."

Li Qiang was still ready to speak.

But he heard the Jin Yiwei snort coldly, and pulled out a long knife, half a man long, from the scabbard on his waist. He saw only a flash of white light in the dark night, and he had already rushed forward.

The woman raised the tip of her spear to the ground, and the man jumped three meters away, and the two started fighting.

Mo Qingwan was stunned when he saw it. This was a martial arts scene. It was so enjoyable.

"This Jin Yiwei's martial arts skills are really unfathomable. Although this female bandit is also powerful, she looks young and her marksmanship is not superb. She is definitely no match for him," Mu looked nervously.

"That's not necessarily the case, at least not tonight," Zhao Feng said.

Mu looked at him puzzled: "Why?"

"Mom, just wait," Mo Qingwan winked at her.

Sure enough, within a short while, the Jin Yiwei was captured alive.

He looked in disbelief and murmured: "How is this possible? Why do I have no moves but no strength at all?"
