A house full of cannon fodder reads my mind. Who knows? I’m going crazy.

Yan Bao finally coaxed the person away and even gave him a meat bun as compensation.

The young lady seemed to really care about her, looking back three times and still reluctant to leave.

Yan Bao could only sigh that he was indeed so cute that even the young lady couldn't refuse him.

Yan Bao had nothing to do next and wandered around the paradise. She didn't have any ill intentions as a child, and the busy water bandits didn't think much about it. They came and went in a hurry, and there were more and more people in this village.

There is not much open space and everyone is looking for a place to settle down.

Yan Bao heard some water bandits curse and say that it was all the fault of the Shen family. If they hadn't complained, how could they have provoked the people who came to the court to suppress the bandits.

When those people leave, they will make the Shen family pay the price.

When Yan Bao heard this, he just sneered and asked the Shen family to pay the price?

Then you have to have this life.

. . . . . . .

On Brother Shen's side, Brother Shen came back with one of the bandit suppressors. He should hurry up and worry about Yan Bao.

Who would have known that when he came back, he would find out that Yan Bao had gone to the water bandit's village. He was so angry that Brother Shen almost beat Brother Shen: "Brother, how can you let Yan Bao act so messy? If anything happens to her, my parents won't be able to bear it." .”

Brother Shen was speechless: "I don't want to either. It's not like you don't know that Yan Bao's decision cannot be changed by anyone."

Knowing that Yan Bao went to the water bandits, Brother Shen couldn't wait to follow him. Isn't this the overall situation?

If the information is revealed, Yan Bao will be in danger.

Brother Shen has been enduring it.

Now that Second Brother Shen said it, he felt even more aggrieved.

Brother Shen thinks about it, that kid Yan Bao has big ideas!

Not to mention that the elder brother can't stop him, if he were here, he would probably go with him.

Realizing that he had lost his temper, Brother Shen awkwardly apologized: "Brother, I'm sorry."

Brother Shen was also a little embarrassed: "Brother is not optimistic about people."

Brother Shen scratched his hair: "What should we do now?"

"Waiting for the news, Yan Bao took away one of the best-behaved pigeons. She will send a message to our flying pigeons." Brother Shen could only wait now, going to the pigeon cage countless times a day to wait.

He was so absent-minded that he couldn't do anything else.

Brother Shen looked at the cooing pigeons and was filled with hope.

Brother Shen asked about the situation in the capital and learned that there were not just five thousand bandits coming, but an extra thousand people had mixed in.

Brother Shen frowned: "Only a thousand?"

"If there are too many, it will be easy to tell. They are all elites!" Second Brother Shen also felt that there was too little. Who knows how many private soldiers Duhu has on hand?

Not to mention private soldiers, he also has more than 5,000 regular soldiers.

The people sent by the imperial court were not numerically superior.

The Lord Protector had already figured it out. Seeing that there were indeed five thousand people, the Lord Protector secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Five thousand people cannot suppress the bandits.

There are eight thousand water bandits in this water area, including his private soldiers.

They have all withdrawn now. There are only some water bandits who are used for shows. They are all old, weak, sick and disabled. There is no loss if they are suppressed.

The Protector-General received news from the water bandits that their people were hiding. The Protector-General didn't even know where they were hiding. The water bandits were also on guard against him!

I'm afraid that the Protector-General and the court's gang will catch them all in one fell swoop.

Yan Bao's flying pigeons flew to the Shen family in the middle of the night. Brother Shen and the others were resting. When they arrived, the pigeons hid in the shack to eat and sleep. The next day, Brother Shen came to check and recognized the pigeons that Yan Bao had taken away. , grab it immediately.

Find the note from the bamboo tube.

Looking at the simple lines above, Brother Shen frowned.

Brother Shen looked at the blood and his expression changed: "Yan Bao was injured, is this her blood?"

Brother Shen was also flustered: "Yan Bao!"

Xu Zhimo looked at his panicked brothers and comforted him: "Yan Bao has his own destiny, and everything will be fine. Instead of just thinking about it, why don't you first see what news Yan Bao is delivering to you?"

After waking up, Brother Shen squinted his eyes, fiddled with the line drawing up, down, left and right, and finally found the right direction. He confirmed: "It's a topographic map. This black dot represents us. This little arrow-like thing is the walking route."

Brother Shen suddenly realized: "The blood stains represent Yan Bao."

Brother Shen nodded in agreement.

Xu Zhimo was curious: "Do you know where this place is?"

Brother Shen smiled: "I don't know."

"Don't you have the water map of Jingzhou, do you want to compare it?" Xu Zhimo reminded kindly. Knowing that Yan Bao was missing, he had a nightmare last night, dreaming that Yan Bao's skull was smashed.

Xu Zhimo thought of his frightened look and worried about Yan Bao.

After being reminded, Brother Shen and Brother Shen immediately went to the study room to compare.

Yan Bao's diagram is simple and clear, but if you compare it carefully, you can still see where it is.

Brother Shen didn't expect that the water bandits in Jiaotu San Cave would be hiding behind the canyon cliffs.

Brother Shen said nothing and went to help.

Brother Shen stopped him: "If you go now, you will only alert the enemy. If you wait, Yan Bao has taken away a lot of poison. She knows what to do."

Brother Shen raised his eyebrows: "How do you know?"

"All the poisons your sister-in-law was playing with were taken away by her." That's right, you took it yourself without asking.

Knowing that Xu Zhiyao would not be given, he could only kill him first and then tell him.

He also left a banknote, which made Xu Zhimo so angry that he didn't even know what to say.

No matter if she takes it away, the poison can be used to defend herself. Even if she encounters a dangerous situation, she might be able to escape.

Brother Shen frowned: "The people from the imperial court went to the water village, and the water bandits ran away. Do you want to remind them?"

"No, you give this to Ziyun." Brother Shen took a porcelain bottle to Brother Shen: "Be careful, don't faint yourself."

Brother Shen nodded, secretly met Ziyun and gave her the things.

Ziyun asked: "Why don't you see Yanbao?"

"She has something to do."

Zi Yun was amused: "Second Young Master, even if you don't tell me, I know that Yan Bao must be a water bandit."

Brother Shen was shocked: "How do you know?"

"Guess." Ziyun blinked without explaining, took the things and left, so as not to be discovered and her identity exposed.

Brother Shen touched his nose, and the little girls were all cumming!

The imperial court suppressed the bandit army, sailed to the reed swamps where water bandits were infested, and found several water villages. They easily captured those water villages and captured many old, weak, sick and disabled people.

They knew that they were being teased, intimidated and used. The old, weak, sick and disabled people just didn't tell where the other water bandits were hiding. They insisted that they were the only ones in the water village. They were the water bandits and there was no one else.

Treat them as fools.

Even if they didn't believe it, they burned the reeds and still couldn't find any other water bandits. They only captured some water bandits who didn't escape, as well as the small water bandits abandoned by the guardian.

Despite the thunder and the rain, the court's bandit-suppressing army achieved nothing. They only thought that these water bandits were the only ones and prepared to return to the court.

The Lord Protector smiled and showed his loyalty as a landlord, and entertained the imperial bandit-suppressing army at a banquet outside Jingzhou City, including Jingzhou's lotus root and pork ribs soup, and lotus leaf glutinous rice chicken.

The wine is local grain wine. The wine is fragrant and everyone drinks it happily.

Lord Protector was in a good mood. Knowing that they would return to Beijing tomorrow, he planned to send them away, and then arrange for the water bandits to carry out a revenge operation to massacre Lord Xiao Shen's family.

Had he not reported it to the court, he would not have been suspected by the court.

Now that their grievances have been cleared, they will naturally be sent on their way.

Thinking of this, the look in Brother Shen's eyes became a little colder.

Brother Shen noticed it, and he continued to drink as if nothing had happened. He would talk to his colleagues from time to time, and they seemed to have a good time chatting with each other.

Seeing that it was almost time, the Protector pretended to be drunk, and was sent back by his subordinates after being too drunk.

He returned to the Protector's Mansion, drank a cup of tea, asked about other situations, and made sure that everything was under his control before going back to rest. His eyes were spinning, and his consciousness was blurred.

Lord Protector had a bad feeling: "Here comes someone!"
