Ye Feng was stunned for a moment before he remembered that he was still wearing a black mask.
So he pulled it off and said gently,"
"Auntie, I'm not a bad person. I'm here to save you. Let me say a few short words. Uncle had not been beaten to death by them. Take Uncle and find a safe place to hide. Get me some rope while you're at it. I'll tie up these bandits first. Send it to the government tomorrow. I still have to save the others in the village later.”
The middle-aged woman looked at Ye Feng suspiciously and saw that he was actually a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old. He looked quite honest and did not look like a bad person.
He nodded and said,
"Alright then…wait here. I'll send it to you right away..."
As she spoke, the middle-aged woman walked to the side of the half-dead middle-aged man.
She helped him up strenuously and walked towards the backyard. The frightened little boy looked at Wu Feng blankly and then ran after the middle-aged woman.
After waiting for a while, the middle-aged woman really brought some very thick hemp rope over. She hurriedly said to Ye Feng,
" These are the ropes my family uses to tie up cows. They're very sturdy, you can make do with them…"
Ye Feng was just about to thank her when the middle-aged woman turned around and quickly ran towards the backyard. After a while, she disappeared without a trace. It seemed that she had really found a place to hide.
Ye Feng took the ropes and walked to the side of the three bandits.
He quickly tied them up like dumplings, tore off their clothes, gagged their mouths, and threw them into the corner where he had been hiding.
Although Ye Feng had learned kung fu from his master for six to seven years, he had never put it to use.
This was also the first time he had fought with someone.
Usually, they didn't even have the guts to kill chickens, let alone kill people.
Although these bandits were extremely hateful, Ye Feng really had no intention of killing them.
They only thought that the officials would take them away when dawn came.
After dealing with the bandits, Ye Feng put on the black mask again and sneaked into another courtyard.
At the same time, the one-eyed man and the shifty-eyed military counselor who were waiting at the east end of the village were getting impatient.
It had been almost half an hour since he brought the hundred men to the village, but not a single one of them had returned.
"Damn it, these guys are too slow. I told them to leave after snatching the things, but no one listened to me.”
The one-eyed man glanced at the village in the fire and cursed angrily.
"Hehe…"
The shifty-eyed military counselor laughed lewdly and said to the one-eyed man,
"Big Brother, why are you in such a hurry? We brothers haven't gone down the mountain to try something new for a long time. When we meet a beautiful girl, no one can snatch her away…"
"That won't do!"
The one-eyed man shouted angrily and widened his eyes.
"This time, our Black Wind Mountain has made such a big commotion. If we alarm the people from the government and arrest us all, it will be troublesome!”
"Chief, you are too cautious. I have already sent a few brothers to guard the main roads leading here. If there is any abnormality, they will ride back to report. There is no need to worry about the government coming. Speaking of which, the Taiping Army's rebellion against the imperial court has long caused those officials to be in a terrible state. How could they have the time to care about us?”
the advisor said confidently.
The one-eyed man's ferocious face gradually relaxed. He looked at the dirty face and rat-like eyes of the advisor and praised,
" As expected of the deputy leader of Black Wind Mountain. You've done a great job. With an advisor like you, I, the One-eyed Dragon King Jin Batian, will have nothing to worry about in the future. Haha…"
"Then I have to thank you for your kindness, Chief. It gives me room to display my wits. I will definitely support you with all my strength and let our Black Wind Mountain prosper day by day…"
"Haha…Good! With your words, I can rest assured. If I become the emperor of the Qing Dynasty one day, you will be my partner and chief consultant for starting a business…"
The one-eyed man laughed in a somewhat complacent manner.
Then I'll thank you in advance for your gift, Chief…"
the staff officer said flatteringly.
The two of them chatted for a while and felt a little bored. The one-eyed man began to ride around the village on his horse, and the black-faced, rat-eyed staff officer followed closely behind him.
The one-eyed man's single eye was full of vigor as he constantly patrolled around the village.
When his eyes stopped on a black building not far away, he asked the staff officer beside him curiously,"
"Deputy Chief, what's that big house for?”
The staff officer squinted his eyes and looked at it for a while before answering indifferently,"
"Chief, that is a mortuary used to store corpses. The Taoist priest who drives the corpses will pass by there on the way. Before dawn this morning, the brother I sent to inquire said that two master and disciple drove a few corpses into that mortuary.”
"Oh?"
The one-eyed man nodded thoughtfully and said,
"This is quite interesting. You are right. I, Jin Batian, have robbed the rich and helped the poor for so many years.”
Hearing Jin Batian's words, the shifty-eyed military advisor was stunned for a moment before he said in fear,"
"Chief, you're not really thinking of robbing these corpse herders, are you? These people are very evil. It's best if we don't provoke them. Moreover, there's nothing worth snatching from these corpse drivers.”
The one-eyed man smiled sinisterly.
"I don't believe this. No matter how evil these corpse drivers are, they can't be as evil as my gun. If they don't listen, I'll shoot them.”
The military counselor was shocked. He wanted to say something, but he didn't know what to say.
He thought in his heart that this Jin Batian was really arrogant and dared to do whatever he wanted.
Just as he was in a daze, he heard Jin Batian's instructions,
"Let's go and take a look together. I want to see with my own eyes what this corpse herding Daoist is capable of…"
As he spoke, Jin Batian turned his horse around and summoned a few bandits beside him to head in the direction of the mortuary.
The military advisor shook his head helplessly and did not say anything else. He could only chase after Jin Batian and go to the memorial hall together.
Because the mortuary always gave people a gloomy feeling, and no one went there, the mortuary was far away from the village and was built in the northeast.
The road from the village to the mortuary was covered with weeds.
There was only a winding path.
Jin Batian led the bandits and walked hard. Finally, they arrived at the gate of the mortuary.
The door was tightly shut, and there was a thick layer of black paint on it.
Under the illumination of the torch, it reflected a deep light.
The bandits looked over and couldn't help but feel a little timid.
