Chapter 436 Bandits are causing trouble, life or death is uncertain

The window was slowly opened, and the cold moonlight came in. Jiang Yichun stood tall, and the moonlight shone on him, seeming to add a bit of haziness and loneliness to him.

His sharp eyes seemed to have lost some of their sparkle, and Bai Ruozhu's heart skipped a beat. He was indeed hurt.

He jumped into the house, and Bai Ruozhu stood up and rushed over, asking in a low voice: "Are you injured?"

Seeing that she was so nervous, Jiang Yichun felt sweet and a little bitter in his heart. He quickly took his jacket and put it on her, and said complainingly: "What's the weather like? If you don't wear your jacket, you'll catch the wind and cold."

As Bai Ruozhu put on her jacket, she stared at him and said, "Don't change the subject. Where are you injured? I can smell blood."

He smiled bitterly, "Your nose is fine. It's fine. It's a skin injury. It doesn't need sutures. I've bandaged it."

Bai Ruozhu simply took his pulse and checked it. At most, it was definitely a skin injury, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Where have you been these days? I can't find you anywhere." Bai Ruozhu said it smoothly. After she said it, she regretted it. When she was in college, a classmate found a man from the security bureau. Friends often complain: Everything is fine, but you can't ask him where he went or what he did, which is against the rules.

The General Affairs Department is a similar department, so what she asked was a bit against the rules. Wasn't it to make it difficult for people to answer or not to answer?

Unexpectedly, Jiang Yichun didn't show any embarrassment and said softly: "Do you still remember the Wang family's mistress Xiao He who was captured before?"

Bai Ruozhu nodded slightly, that was a bandit.

"There is a group of bandits in Xuantian Mountain to the north. They have set up camp and call themselves Batian Village. Xiao He was kidnapped by the people of Batian Village back then, and now he has some reputation in Batian Village. It’s the seventh master.” Jiang Yichun started talking.

"The head of Batian Village is called Chen Batian. I don't know whether it is his original name or a name he changed. I only know that he went to the Shaolin Temple to learn martial arts when he was young. He is quite good at kung fu. But he couldn't stand the poverty of Buddhism, so he came here. We set up camp in the northwest, recruited a group of confidants, and came down from time to time to cause trouble. Counting the time, it has been more than twenty years."

"At first, when he didn't have enough manpower, he would go down the mountain to arrest people. Xiao He was arrested at that time. Now that they have more people, they are becoming more and more courageous. A few days ago, they suddenly went to Linjiang Village to burn, kill and plunder. Because time is too tight, I didn’t have time to say goodbye to you.”

Bai Ruozhu's heart skipped a beat, and she grabbed Jiang Yichun's clothes with both hands, and asked nervously: "How are the casualties in Linjiang Village?"

Jiang Yichun was a little surprised at how nervous she was. He thought she was nervous about the family who rented her field, so he hurriedly said: "The family who rented your field is fine. Their house has a cellar. The whole family is hiding in the cellar, so nothing happened." .”

"What about the middle-aged family named Deng?" Bai Ruozhu raised her throat.

Jiang Yichun frowned slightly, "I didn't pay special attention to it, but the casualties were not serious this time. So what happened to the Deng family? Are you familiar with them?"

Bai Ruozhu looked worried and said, "Deng Zhongren's daughter-in-law Niu Cuicui is Xiao Si's biological mother."

Jiang Yichun was surprised and asked, "When did you know you were hungry?"

Bai Ruozhu recounted in a few words how she went to Linjiang Village to re-lease land, and found a matchmaker, met Mrs. Niu, and then learned Xiaosi's true life experience.

Jiang Yichun frowned tightly and said, "Now that the imperial court is suppressing bandits, Xiaosi's identity cannot be known to more people, otherwise..."

He paused, and Bai Ruozhu understood that since it was a campaign to suppress bandits, they wanted to eliminate them all, and many of the policies at this time were to be copied and killed. Even if Xiaosi's mother was raped by innocent bandits, Xiaosi has nothing to do with bandits since he was a child, but the higher-ups will not let such a hidden danger go unchecked.

"Don't worry, only my father and I know now. He won't tell nonsense, and Mrs. Niu won't tell anyone. Even Niu Cuicui herself can't remember it." Bai Ruozhu said.

Jiang Yichun nodded, "This is best. Xiaosi is an innocent child. I will ask someone to inquire about Deng Zhongren and his wife. I will tell you if I have any news."

Mentioning this, Bai Ruozhu couldn't help but feel a little sad, and she felt even more blocked in her heart. She gritted her teeth and asked, "The bandits have been causing trouble for twenty years, and the court has been letting them go. If they had suppressed the bandits earlier, , so many tragedies wouldn’t have happened.”

"Xuantian Mountain, the home of the bandits, already belongs to the territory of the Khitan Kingdom. If troops are sent to suppress the bandits, it will inevitably cause conflict between the two countries. A few years ago, the late emperor was old and in poor health, so he did not have the energy to provoke the two countries. The disputes in the country. Later, the foundation of the emperor's succession was unstable, and it has been difficult to take action. "

Bai Ruozhu suddenly realized that Chen Batian really knows how to pick places!

It is difficult to suppress bandits. We cannot send a large number of troops. If we provoke a war between the two countries, the people nearby will also suffer. And Chen Batian also learned Shaolin Kung Fu, so he is not a simple character.

"I only brought twenty good soldiers with me this time. I rushed over overnight and fought all the way to Batian Village, but I underestimated them in the end. I don't know who helped them build the village. It was not only full of institutions, but also equipped with I just fell into the Xuanmen Bagua Formation and was injured by a hidden arrow shot by the mechanism." Jiang Yichun pointed to his left shoulder, showing a helpless look.

Bai Ruozhu felt uncomfortable again. His right arm was so seriously injured that she stitched it up, but she knew that his right arm could no longer use the sword, at least not yet. He wielded the sword with his left hand, but his left shoulder was stabbed by a hidden arrow. When did such an injury end?

She checked his bandage and made sure it was okay, then looked at him and asked, "Can't you do something less dangerous?"

Jiang Yichun smiled, very cheerfully, "Why, are you nervous about me?"

Bai Ruozhu had been worried for a few days, and now she was suffocating in her heart. Seeing that he was still laughing and joking, her anger suddenly came up.

"Yeah, I'm nervous. I'm not as heartless as you. Do you know how uncomfortable it is for me to worry about you every day? Okay, forget me for being nosy, and I will never ask about your affairs again! "She couldn't help but speak louder as she spoke. After speaking, she turned her back to him and didn't want to pay attention to her anymore.

The expression on Jiang Yichun's face was one of giggles for a moment, guilt for a moment, and finally caution.

He hugged her from behind and didn't let go when he felt her resistance. Instead, he hugged her tighter.

"Don't be angry. I already told Master that I want to turn to the bright side and won't do those dangerous jobs. Master asked me why, and I said it was like marrying a wife." Jiang Yichun said the last word with a hint of emotion in his tone. Some sweet taste.

Bai Ruozhu's heart tightened when she heard this, turned to look at him and asked, "Does your master agree?"
