Treacherous ministers have deep routines

Wei Man suddenly regretted that he didn't want to redeem Pangtu, so he just let him fend for himself.

But Lin Rang was determined to redeem Pontu, not only that, but also to fight in person.

Wei Man said in shock: "To redeem a Pangtu, why do you go there in person, just let him go down."

Although the horse bandits are just some useless deserters, they occupy the mountain and become kings. Who knows if they will set up an ambush. There are very few people who have been redeemed since ancient times.

Lin Rang said: "If you don't go to battle in person, how can you let Pontu understand our sincerity?"

"we?"

Wei Man seemed to have caught a key word, and said, "You want to go, too?"

Lin Rang nodded and stared at Wei Man expressionlessly.

Wei Man was really helpless, but on second thought, Lin Rang was determined to go, could he not go?

If Lin Rang had something good or bad, he would definitely regret it, and naturally he would follow.

There was still no movement from Chen Ji, apparently he had given up on Pangtu. Wei Man asked Wei Zilian to prepare. Wei Man felt that the work of redeeming people should be the same as doing business. Naturally, he asked Wei Zilian to prepare and prepare money.

Wei Zilian communicated with the horse bandits, and the horse bandits were very angry because they didn't receive Chen Ji's reply for a long time. They also vaguely knew that Chen Ji seemed to have given up on Pangtu, so it was probably not a ransom.

Now it's all right, everything is in vain.

When the horse bandits were angry, they received a letter from Wei Zilian, saying that Pontu was his relative, so they wanted to redeem Pontu.

Wei Zilian was very smart, and he didn't reveal his identity. He didn't say that he was from Weiying, but said quietly that they and Pangtu were relatives, and they raised money to exchange Pangtu back.

The horse bandits thought that this time they were going to be in vain, and they couldn't see a single thing. Now that the people who gave the money were rushing up, they were naturally happy, so they immediately agreed and agreed with them on the meeting place.

Wei Zilian received the reply and immediately took it to Wei Man and Lin Rang, saying, "Brother, governor, the letter has come back, and those horse bandits have agreed to exchange it."

Lin Rang nodded and said, "Let's prepare the itinerary now."

Wei Zilian was a little surprised and said: "Inspector, this mountain is the boundary of the horse bandits, something might happen, the governor doesn't know martial arts, so let's stay in the camp."

Lin Rang said lightly: "This is not acceptable. If Pontu is to feel our sincerity, then I must act."

sincerity...

Wei Man thought sourly in his heart, I'm afraid you have taken a fancy to Pontu's handsome boy.

After everyone had rectified, they were ready to set off, because they were going to face those horse bandits in the mountains, so second-hand preparations were needed.

First, you need to prepare money to exchange hostages with horse bandits.

Secondly, it is necessary to prepare soldiers. If the horse bandits get the money and want to tear up the ticket, then they have to be prepared, so they can't be caught off guard by being killed.

Zhao Dian and Wei Zilian secretly dispatched troops to sneak, protecting Wei Man and Lin Rang all the way to the mountains.

The villagers at the foot of the mountain also said that this area is often attacked by horse bandits. Those horse bandits are very rampant and often burn, kill and loot, which is absolutely hateful.

Wei Man said: "These horse bandits are too hateful, it's time to give them a pot."

Lin Rang rode on the shadowless horse, and said calmly, "Why should Duke Wei be in a hurry? Isn't this time we are here to explore the terrain?"

In fact, Lin Rang's proposal to redeem Pangtu was not just to draw Pangtu into the Wei camp, but because the horse bandits on the mountain were very "fat".

The horse bandits are deserters in the army who occupy the mountains and become kings, and all of them are regular soldiers who have received formal training, and it is said that the weapons they use are also military equipment.

It is a pity that such an army is placed on the mountain, and there is no restraint, and it will burn, kill and loot, but if it is gathered back by Wei Man, it will not only expand its strength, but also do a good deed for the people. Why not for.

Lin Rang said: "The topography of this mountain is complicated, let's go up to investigate first, so that we can eliminate the old den of the horse bandits."

Upon hearing this, Wei Man said, "It turns out...you were thinking of Gu, and Gu thought you were purely interested in Pontu's appearance."

Lin Rang thought for a while and said, "These two points...do not conflict."

Wei Mandeng said dissatisfiedly: "Conflict, outright conflict, you philandering carrot, big pig's hoof."

Lin Rang was reprimanded by Wei Man, and immediately felt the urge to laugh. For some reason, Lin Rang's pleasure seemed to be seeing Wei Man get angry.

When the two were not together, Wei Man was often furious by Lin Rang. At that time, Lin Rang didn't have any feelings, but felt that Wei Man was a little different, but now...

Lin Rang raised his eyebrows, thinking that he might have a disease that would make him lose his strength if he didn't bully Wei Man, and it seems that it can't be cured...

"Whoa-"

"Tap Tat Tat!!"

While he was talking, he heard footsteps, approaching from far away, quickly surrounded him, a group of black horse bandits, a group of people in front were riding on tall horses, running wildly, while the bandits behind had no horses, came running quickly.

The bandits immediately surrounded Wei Man, Lin Rang and others.

Wei Man was very calm, and glanced at the horse bandits. They were indeed well-trained, and they were indeed from the regular army.

The horse bandits surrounded them in the middle, and then slowly pushed them away. A horse bandit riding a tall horse walked slowly out of the crowd. He looked very stylish, and he must be their eldest brother.

Behind the big brother's horse, there is a long rope hanging, and a person is tied to the tail of the rope.

Ponto!

Pontu's hands were tied to the rope, pulling him to run forward quickly, the horse's hooves kicked up dust along the way, making Pontu ashamed and a little embarrassed.

Pontu kept coughing "cough cough cough", he lost a lot of weight compared to the previous meeting, and also suffered some injuries.

In other words, Pontu lost the battle and fled all the way. It can be said that he lost his helmet and armor and was in a panic. This Pontu is so proud and arrogant, his face is inevitably haggard.

Later, the misfortune never came singly, and he was kidnapped by the bandits. Chen Ji never replied, and the bandits were not stupid. They already knew that Chen Ji had no intention of making acquaintances.

Pontu looked very haggard, his eye sockets were deeply sunken, his cheeks were sunken, his lips were dry to gray and purple, and there were scars from the whip on his cheeks, making him look very pitiful.

The horse bandit raised his whip, pointed at Lin Rang and Wei Man falsely, and said, "Are you... are his relatives?"

Lin Rang moved his eyes slightly and said, "If you go back to the king, this is my son."

"cough!!!"

Pang Tuben was coughing, and was a little surprised to see Lin Rang and Wei Man.

When he heard that someone came to redeem him, he thought it was Chen Jida showing kindness. Thinking that he had followed him for so many years, he had worked hard without credit, not to mention that he had finally come to him for the sake of loyalty.

Unexpectedly, when they met, this last hope was also shattered, not by Chen Ji, but by his enemy——Wei Man.

Wei Man and Lin Rang brought teams of carts to deliver food and money, and even came to redeem Pontu in person. Pangtu was so shocked that he didn't know how to describe it, but he tried his best to calm his face.

When Lin Rang said "my son", Pangtu could no longer be calm, and almost choked to death from his own cough.

Pontu coughed and his face turned red, he was both shocked and ashamed. Seeing that Lin Rang was only in his early twenties, and he was in his early thirties, Lin Rang took advantage of him!

The bandit leader was taken aback for a moment, and then said, "How dare you entertain grandpa? You are younger than him, how could he be your son?!"

Wei Man also sweated for Lin Rang, and secretly clenched his fist, thinking that once the horse bandits made trouble, he would have to calm down the scene.

Lin Rang replied indifferently: "It's not my own son, this is my adopted son. He was originally a rough envoy and servant who served me. Because he served well, I promoted him to be my son and let him manage it on my behalf. My business, my lord, is there anything wrong with that?"

Seeing that Lin Rang wasn't flustered at all, the horse bandit leader looked extremely calm. Not only that, he answered fluently, as if he didn't seem to be lying.

In fact, there are many people who recognize adopted sons these days. As long as they have money, what kind of person cannot be adopted sons?But older.

The bandit leader said, "Did you bring everything I wanted?"

Lin Rang raised his hand, pointed to the cart behind him, and said, "Your Majesty, you can order someone to check, they are all in the cart."

As soon as the leader of the horse bandit waved his hand, the gangsters under him immediately stepped forward to check the luggage cart, opened the curtain of the cart, and saw the silver mountains and silver mountains, as well as food treasures and so on.

The leader of the horse bandit seemed very satisfied, and said with a smile, "As expected of a rich man, sincerity is good."

Lin Rang said: "We brought the money so that the king can release my son. Now we should hand over the money to the person and the money?"

The mountain king smiled and said, "Naturally, naturally."

When he smiled, he didn't look like a good person, his face was very ferocious, and his eyes were like a fish, wandering back and forth, as if he was thinking of some bad idea.

Lin Rang was like a bright mirror in his heart, what bad idea could he think of?

Isn't it because they saw that they had money, so they wanted to embezzle the money and redeem people again.

The leader of the horse bandit was very greedy, and looked at them sinisterly, but Wei Man had already prepared, and had already ambushed Zhao Dian and Wei Zilian in the dark.

Once the transaction is successful, they will inevitably cover their retreat.

The leader of the horse bandit smiled and said: "Okay! You are trustworthy people, then Grandpa and I are also trustworthy people, so we can exchange hostages."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the soldiers behind him immediately untied Pontu's rope, but instead of freeing Pangtu, they changed the rope and tied him up, tied his hands behind his back, and escorted him slowly.

The bandit leader walked halfway and said: "Don't all of your people come here, just you, isn't he your son, come and pick him up."

Pointing at Lin Rang, the bandit leader seemed to think that Lin Rang's face was easy to bully, he was not tall, and he was far less troubled than Wei Man next to him, so he was going to pinch Gu Lin Rang as a soft persimmon.

Wei Man frowned, and when he was about to speak, Lin Rang said, "What's the problem?"

As he spoke, he got off the shadowless horse and walked over slowly, looking calm.

The leader of the horse bandit led Pontu to walk over, and Lin Rang also slowly walked over. The people on both sides were getting closer and closer. Only then did he remember that in order to deceive others, he did not wear the Yitian sword, and now he has no weapon with him.

Wei Man's hand was pressed on his own belt buckle instead, the belt buckle is made of jade, it is very heavy, if necessary, it can barely be used as a concealed weapon.

Lin Rang walked over and came to the bandit leader. The bandit leader pushed Pang Tu hard to Lin Rang.

Pontu had already been abused, but now he was pushed so hard that he staggered twice, unable to grasp his balance at all, and fell into Lin Rang's arms with a loud "Boom!"

Lin Rang quickly caught him, and at this moment, Wei Man suddenly yelled: "Be careful!"

The bandit leader had already risen violently, he raised his big knife and slashed at Pontu.

It seems that they want to kill Pangtu, catch Lin Rang, repeat the old plan, and continue to blackmail.

Hearing Wei Man's shout, Lin Rang's eyes moved slightly for a moment, and he calculated quickly in his heart. Wei Man's reaction speed was extremely fast, and he should be able to save him in time. If he stepped forward at this time and helped Pang If he tried to stop him, Pangtu would definitely be grateful. Compared with Chen Ji's inaction, and even borrowing a knife to kill someone, did he become the heart of a fairy?

Thinking of this, Lin Rang immediately hugged Pangtu, turned around suddenly, even protected Pangtu, and turned his back to the bandit leader.

With a flash of silver light, the bandit leader's broadsword slashed down, Lin Rang turned his back, and Pontu instantly turned to face, seeing the bandit leader's broadsword was about to fall hard on Lin Rang's back.

Pontu gasped in surprise, his breathing was stagnant, and he couldn't speak a word.

"when--!!"

At this moment, Wei Man grabbed the buckle and flung it out violently. There was a golden sound, and the jade buckle hit the sword. The bandit leader felt his arm go numb. fly out.

Wei Man's eyes were red with anxiety, and at the same time he urged his horse to come out and pounce on him.

Zhao Dian and Wei Zilian, who were hiding in the dark, saw that something was wrong, so Zhao Dian immediately waved and said, "Go!"

In an instant, the soldiers of the Wei camp rushed out, and there were at least 200 people ambushing around. Although it was not enough to wipe out the horse bandits, there were no more than [-] horse bandits who came to exchange money. Looking at this scene, everyone was dumbfounded.

"Big brother!"

"Brother, what should we do?!"

"There is an ambush!"

"Is it an officer?!"

The bandit leader's weapon was shattered, seeing Wei Man rushing towards him, he was so frightened that he immediately waved his hand and said, "Retreat!"

When those horse bandits retreated, they didn't forget to take money, as much as they could, and looted it all. Taking advantage of the terrain, they quickly disappeared among the mountains and rocks, without seeing anyone.

Pangtu opened his eyes wide in fright, staring blankly at Lin Rang, who was close at hand and shielding him from the knife, unable to recover for a long time.

When Wei Man rushed over, he saw the two hugging each other, and they were still "inseparable". He was so angry that he immediately pulled Pontu away and pushed him two steps away.

Unprepared, Pangtu took two steps back and sat down on the ground with a "gudong", his face flushed with anger.

Wei Mancai didn't care about that, and quickly pulled Lin Rang up and down to check him, saying, "Are you injured yet? Let Gu take a look! Why are you so reckless? If there is anything good or bad, Gu will disembowel the traitor Pangtu." , skin cramps!"

Lin Rang looked at Wei Man's anxious face calmly, and said, "It's okay."

As he spoke, he leaned closer to Wei Man, and whispered in his ear: "I know that A-Man's reaction is very fast."

When Wei Man heard this, he realized that it was a long-planned matter for Lin Rang to block the sword for Pangtu just now. Needless to say, the purpose was to pay money and block the sword. It must be to win over Pangtu. camp.

Wei was full of anger and wished that the seven orifices could be smoked, and said: "Don't do this next time. Among the people in this world, there is no one more important than you. Anyone can be hurt, but you can't."

Lin Rang smiled lightly and said, "What about the world?"

Wei Man replied smoothly, without even stuttering, saying: "The world is not as important as you!"

When Wei Man replied, he was a little dazed, did he think so?

What is most important to an ambitious warlord?

Naturally, the world is the world, who doesn't want to compete in the Central Plains, to fight for the world, Wei Man also wants to.

But Wei Man just answered unintentionally, thinking that Lin Rang is more important than the world...

Wei Man stared at Lin Rang in a daze, and couldn't recover for a while. It turns out that he loves Lin Rang so much, which is deeper than he imagined.

Lin Rang got the answer he was satisfied with, kissed Wei Man without hesitation, and said, "That's a nice answer, I'll be rewarded."

Pangtu fell to the ground, his bones were about to fall apart, but Wei Man and Lin Rang were standing in front of him...

Flirting!

That's right, flirting, not just beating and scolding, but even kissing in the end.

Pontu has long seen that their relationship is unusual, and he has heard some indecent rumors, it is true that seeing is worth seeing, and today he has increased his knowledge.

It's just that Pangtu was faintly shaken by it, not for anything else. Can the weight of this person really be compared to the world?

And my weight, in the heart of the lord, is not as good as some food and money...

At this moment, Pontu's heart was not only sour but also desperate. He felt that he had fallen into a bottomless abyss. All his ambitions and enthusiasm for so many years were all in vain, and there was nothing left...

Zhao Dian and Wei Zilian rushed over from the side and caught a bunch of bandits.

Wei Zilian said: "Brother, these bandits are too cunning, taking advantage of the terrain, they all ran away!"

Wei Man said lightly: "Don't worry, this time I went up the mountain just to explore the terrain, let's talk about it next time."

"Yes!"

Wei Man said again, "Let's go down the mountain."

Lin Rang turned his head to look at Pangtu who had fallen to the ground. Pangtu was still tied up and very weak. He couldn't struggle at all and was still sitting on the ground.

Lin Rang knelt down to untie him and said, "My son, we haven't seen each other for a long time."

Ponto: "..."

Pangtu's face turned blue, the bandits had already gone, and Lin Rang still took advantage of him?

Although he was not fair in his heart, he still had to be respectful on the face. Whoever let Lin Rang save him just now, almost blocked a knife for him, and also scattered a lot of money, all of which were owed by Pontu.

Pangtu clasped his hands in front of him and said, "Thank you to the governor of Luzhou, the governor made a joke."

Lin Rang said, "Can Mr. Pang go? Let Mr. Wei carry you on his back?"

Wei Man pointed to his nose, and said with a sneer, "Gu? Carry him alone?"

What's more, he even let out a "heh--", as if expressing great disdain.

Lin Rang looked up at Wei Man, Wei Man was defeated in an instant, Wei Zilian is a discerning man, how can the lord betray someone, or betray his invisible rival in love.

Wei Zilian hurriedly smiled and said, "Inspector, I will come and I will carry Mr. Pang on my back."

Wei Zilian was neither tall nor thin. After being abused for a while, Pangtu was so skinny that he wished only his skeleton remained. Naturally, he was very light.

However, Zhao Dian doesn't seem to want to make Wei Zilian troublesome. Although he looks confused on weekdays, he still loves people very much at critical moments.

Then he said, "It's better to be humble."

As he spoke, he picked up Pontu on his back and boarded the carriage.

Pontu rode in a car, and the others rode horses to the camp. After entering the camp, Wei Man sent Pontu to wash and bandage his wounds.

On the other hand, he aggressively dragged Lin Rang into the tent.

"Boom!" With a sound, Wei Man put Lin Rang on the wall of the tent, squinted his eyes and looked down at Lin Rang.

Lin Rang said with a calm "innocent" face, "Is there something wrong with Mr. Wei?"

Wei Man said in a cold voice: "Lord Inspector, tell me, what's the matter? Hasn't Lord Inspector reviewed himself?"

Lin Rang raised his eyebrows.

Wei Man glared at Lin Rang angrily, and said, "Why did you block the knife for Pangtu? Where did all your usual cleverness go? If Gu didn't rescue him in time, do you know that you have been seriously injured?! Pangtu's color is so-so, less than one-tenth of Lu Jinyu's, so you're willing to get hurt for Pangtu?"

Listening to Wei Man's scolding, Lin Rang seemed to poke Lin Rang's smile for some reason, so he laughed out loud.

Wei Man almost rolled his eyes, pinched Lin Rang's chin, and said, "Don't laugh, be serious."

Lin Rang kept his face straight, and said, "Rang knows that Wei Gong can save Rang, it's just a fake move."

Wei Man said: "Fake moves are not allowed, what if I don't have time? Then you are not..."

To get hurt! ?

Before Wei Man finished speaking, Lin Rang said quietly, "Let me trust Wei Gong."

Wei Man: "..."

In an instant, the anger turned into passion, Lin Rang is really seductive.

Wei Man's eyes were a little dark, and he said, "Say it yourself, should you be punished today?"

Lin Rang looked at Wei Man expressionlessly, without any fear in his eyes, and said, "It's up to Duke Wei to decide how to punish him?"

Wei Man really couldn't bear it anymore, Lin Rang teased himself again in a serious manner.

Just when Wei Man was about to bear it no longer, Pangtu's voice came from outside the camp, saying, "Pangtu pays his respects to Duke Wei and the governor of Luzhou."

Lin Rang moved his eyes and said, "It seems that there is no time."

Wei Man: "..."

Pontu came at the right time, just in time to interrupt Wei Man's punishment.

Pangtu walked in from outside the tent, immediately knelt down on the ground, kowtowed and said, "Pangtu thank Duke Wei and the governor for saving their lives."

Wei Man snorted, quite arrogant, and seemed to ignore Pontu.

Lin Rang said, "Mr. Pang, you don't need to be polite, just get up."

Pontu stood up slowly, and because he was too weak, he almost fell to the ground in a daze.

Lin Rang supported Pangtu, and slowly helped him to sit down at the banquet.

Seeing his cautious appearance, Wei Man felt angry in his heart, crossed his arms, and snorted again.

Supported by Lin Rang, Pangtu let out a slight "hiss..." breath.

Lin Rang looked down, it turned out that Pangtu had a wound, but he didn't bandage it, he just washed and changed his clothes.

Lin Rang said to Wei Man, "Please trouble Mr. Wei to bring me the medicine box."

Wei Man snorted coldly and said, "Why? You can't go alone."

Lin Rang didn't speak any more, and turned to look at Wei Man. Wei Man seemed unable to withstand the pressure of Lin Rang's gaze, so he obediently stood up and took the medicine box, and handed it to Lin Rang reluctantly.

Lin Rang opened the medicine box, rolled up Pontu's cuffs, and gave him the medicine.

Pangtu's eyes moved slightly, as if a little moved, he said, "Thank you, Inspector."

Lin Rang said: "There is nothing to thank, I just cherish my talent."

Pangtu laughed lightly, most likely as a self-deprecating one, and said, "Pity...a talent? A villain is a defeated general, what kind of talent does he have that the Governor-General would be so rare?"

Lin Rang said: "You are indeed a defeated army, but even so, Mr. Pang's talent is remarkable and cannot be wiped out, right? Back then, Mr. Pang helped Chen Ji capture Yanzhou and pacify Yanzhou. Given Chen Ji's great influence today, Mr. Pang's contribution to Chen Jineng's achievements today, isn't it?"

Is it...

Is not it?

Pangtu laughed at himself again, of course he did, Pangtu helped Chen Ji to pacify Yanzhou, turned Chen Ji from a small prefect into a state shepherd, and persuaded Chen Ji to win the hearts of the people, love the people and so on.

Chen Ji's achievements today cannot be separated from Pangtu's contribution.

It's a pity...all this came to naught, and Pangtu could no longer return to Chenying.

Even if he left the clutches of the bandits now, returning to Chenying would be a death sentence, and he could not escape or escape.

Pontu seemed to sigh a little more, he was no longer as arrogant and domineering as in the past, and the harsh edges and corners were knocked off a lot.

Lin Rang seemed to have seen through Pontu's despair, and said calmly: "People in this world have very different temperaments. There are people who are happy and angry, people who are calm and indifferent, people who are loyal and courageous, and people who are impulsive. Everyone has their own strengths, Mr. Pang doesn't need to give up on himself."

Pontu looked at Lin Rang in surprise.

Lin Rang happened to bandage him up and said, "Change the dressing every day, try not to get wet."

Pontu nodded in agreement.

Lin Rang packed up the medicine box and said lightly, "If Mr. Pang has nothing to do, you can leave."

Pontu stood up and said, "The villain will return the account first."

Lin Rang shook his head and said, "It's not paying back, it's leaving."

What he said was not limited to Pontu, even Wei Man was taken aback.

Lin Rang paid money to ransom people, and also blocked Pangtu's knife, wasn't it all for the purpose of taking Pangtu under his command?

Now he asked Pontu to leave.

Pangtu couldn't maintain his face anymore, and Nahan said in surprise, "The governor means... that I can leave Weiying? You won't...don't keep me?"

Lin Rang said lightly: "We saved Mr. Pang purely because we respected Mr. Pang's loyalty and courage, and cherished Mr. Pang's talent. There is no other meaning. It is not to take advantage of the fire to loot anything."

The more Pang Tu listened, the more moved he was, especially compared with Chen Ji's deeds, Lin Rang and Wei Man instantly became gods.

Lin Rang continued: "Therefore... Mr. Pang decides whether to go or stay."

Pangtu didn't speak for a while, the camp was quiet, Lin Rang and Wei Man's eyes were fixed on Pangtu.

Chen Ji had already given up on Pangtu, and wanted to borrow a knife to kill and execute Pangtu, but Lin Rang and Wei Man, who were enemies, paid to redeem Pangtu and returned. Not only that, Lin Rang was almost injured because of him...

There is little contrast between the two sides.

There seems to be no suspense about where Pontu should go.

It’s just that while Pontu was moved, he felt a little desperate in his heart. He had already been poured with cold water, and Pontu was a little disheartened. To live the rest of my life peacefully without doing anything, no matter what.

Pangtu thought for a moment, arched his hands, bowed deeply, and said, "Thank you, Duke Wei, and thank the governor for saving your life. Pangtu has nothing to repay, so Pangtu...so he left."

He said, turned around and was about to leave.

Wei Man was taken aback, looked at Lin Rang, and immediately gave him a wink, are you being stubborn?

Logically speaking, Pontu was grateful, so he should have stayed behind to make suggestions, help them fight against Chen Ji, and explain Chen Ji and Yanzhou's old background.

how……

Why did you leave like this?Is it really out of routine?

Sure enough, Wei Man thought, Pontu is just a white-eyed wolf.

"Wait a minute."

Just as Pangtu was about to walk out of the tent, Lin Rang spoke immediately.

Pontu slowly let go of the hand holding up the curtain, turned his head, and said, "Why? Your Excellency the Inspector speaks a lot, so can you go back on what you said?"

Lin Rang smiled, with a gentle smile, and said: "How can you go back on your word? I am a majestic governor of Luzhou. If I take back what I said, it would be too embarrassing, wouldn't it?"

Pontu asked suspiciously, "Then this is...?"

Lin Rang maintained a "scary" smile and said: "Mr. Pang can indeed leave, but you may have forgotten something, that is, the ransom money paid to the horse bandits. Should Mr. Pang return it to us first, and then pay us back?" leave again?"

Pontu was taken aback, ransom?

Lin Rang raised his slender and slender palm, shook it, and said, "Five million yuan is not a small amount. Although our Duke Wei is very rich, he never spends money recklessly, and he is very good at managing the family."

Wei Man: "..." Being praised suddenly, but hearing Lin Rang's tone, why is it so strange?

Lin Rang said with a smile: "Should Mr. Pang pay off the money before leaving? It's not good for Mr. Pang's reputation to avoid being ridiculed if he owes the debt."

Pontu was choked up, his face turned red, he was abandoned by the lord now, without anything, where would he have any money?

Pangtu arched his hands and said in a cold voice: "To tell you the truth, Lord Inspector Shi, the villain has nothing but the ability to drink the northwest wind, and I don't know how to repay the money that Lord Inspector Shi paid."

Lin Rang said, "You don't know, but the governor knows."

Pangtu interrupted him and said: "It's not that the villain doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth, it's just that the villain doesn't want to do the job of a counselor. If the governor wants the villain to go to the Wei camp and give advice to the Duke of Wei, I'm afraid It’s going to be in vain.”

It's not that Pangtu is so loyal to Chen Ji, but that Pangtu is disheartened and has no fighting spirit, so how can he help anyone?

Seeing that Pangtu didn't know how to flatter him, Wei Man's expression was not very good-looking.

Lin Rang was not angry, and said softly, "Mr. Pang is too worried. In addition to mental work, physical work can also pay back the money."

"Manual labor?"

Pangtu looked at Lin Rang strangely, and Wei Man's heart skipped a beat. He always felt that Lin Rang's gaze was a bit sinister. Could it be that Lin Rang really "had something wrong" with Pangtu?

I heard Lin Rang say: "From today onwards, Mr. Pang will work as a servant in the Wei camp, pour a bowl of water, and give you a five baht. Think about it, Mr. Pang. In this way, you only need to Pour 500 million bowls of water, and you can pay off the debt, which is the benefit of the pie in the sky."

Ponto: "..."

Wei Man: "..."

Wei Man originally thought that Lin Rang had something wrong with Pontu's color, but after hearing this, it was just to entertain Pangtu...

Speaking of which, Wei Man suddenly felt that Pontu was a bit pitiful.

Pangtu stared blankly at the spot, staring at Lin Rang for a long time, unable to regain his composure. It took him a while to react, stuttering a little with anger, and said, "You...what's wrong with you? I didn't ask you to redeem me, either. Now you tell me to go, but, but you are threatening with such words, you... are you acting like a real man?"

Seeing him stuttering, Lin Rang thought it was even more interesting, and said slowly: "Mr. Pang, that's not what you said. You don't care if your master abandons you. We kindly raised money to save you, 500 million yuan. It’s not a small amount, you are saved now, but you say that you didn’t ask us to come and redeem you, which makes people sound like, isn’t it... a little wolf-hearted?”

Ponto: "..."

Think of him, Pangtu, who has been going smoothly for 30 years and has become the mastermind of an army. What kind of big battle has he not seen?But Lin Rang had never seen such a rogue battle.

And it sounds like Lin Rang is more reasonable.

Anyway, both Lin Rang and Wei Man are his saviors, and now that they have been saved, it is really not pleasant to say that you have not been asked to take money for ransom.

Pontu blushed anxiously, and stood still on the spot without speaking.

Lin Rang brushed off his sleeve robe, calmly, and said quite leisurely: "Mental labor and physical labor are both acceptable, let's see how Mr. Pang chooses? Should he be a counsellor or a servant girl."

"Ya... girl?"

Pangtu was really laughed at by Lin Rang. He flicked his sleeve robe, but touched his own wound, and gasped in pain with a "hiss...".

Pangtu is also a tough guy, especially because he is used to being arrogant and domineering. Today, he met an opponent, so he sneered and said: "Since the governor wants to keep Pang so much, then Pang will just serve tea and pour water based on the governor's instigation." .”

Wei Man couldn't help laughing, thinking that Pangtu was also stubborn, and when he got into trouble with Lin Rang, he refused to submit, and rushed to serve tea and water.

However, anyone who is stubborn with Lin Rang is just asking for humiliation, Wei Man is well versed in the truth...

Lin Rang clapped his hands slightly, and said, "Okay, it's a deal, we don't discriminate against manual laborers, if you're not smart, just work harder."

Pontu: "..." Who is not smart? !

Pontu had been greatly exaggerated since he was a child, and he had never heard anyone belittle him, so he was annoyed, but he could only let himself be patient, and he must not fall into the trap.

He has made up his mind that he will never return to Weiying.

Lin Rang didn't force it, and said: "From tomorrow onwards, I will go to work. The person who came is a guest, and Mr. Pang is injured. Today, I can take a rest and experience the last leisure."

Pontu didn't talk nonsense with him, turned around and left the camp.

Seeing Pontu's arrogance, Wei Man said, "It's time to rub his prestige well and let him know that the sky is high and the earth is strong."

Lin Rang nodded and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Wei. Now that Chen Ji has been defeated once, he will not dare to move forward rashly. We take advantage of this opportunity to trap Pangtu, and worry that we won't be able to dig out the military secrets of the Chen camp." Is it?"

Wei Man smiled, scratched the bridge of Lin Rang's nose, and said, "You have the most ghostly ideas."

As he spoke, he seemed to think of something, and said, "That's right, do you want to help you rectify Pontu alone?"

Lin Rang shook his head and said: "Wei Gong doesn't need to do anything. This job is not suitable for Wei Gong. Wei Gong should continue to maintain the majesty of the lord. This kind of thing should be done by a dude who doesn't care about reputation."

Wei Man was also a dandy before. When he was young, he was a well-known dandy in Xuanyang capital, but now he is the leader of the alliance and the general of the hussars.

Wei Man narrowed his eyes and said, "Who are you talking about... a dude?"

Lin Rang smiled, as if he wanted to show off.

Pangtu went back to the camp tent, angrily lay down with his clothes closed and his eyes closed, thinking that Wei Ying was deceiving people too much, he had learned the truth and would never let them drive him around.

What's more, Pontu could see the faces of these lords clearly, and he was disheartened, so he didn't want to submit to anyone, and after pouring out the 500 million bowls of water, he retired to the mountains and forests.

500……

Pour a bowl of water, five baht a piece, a debt of 500 million yuan in total, Pontu thought, his eyebrows furrowed together, very troubled, he threw the quilt over his head, and accidentally touched the wound on his face , with a "hiss".

Pangtu was so irritable that he thought of Yuan Hao who was in deep trouble for no reason.

When he left Chen Ying, he was full of ambition, and he even let go of harsh words in front of Yuan Hao, but now everything has come to naught, and he has lost all face.

Pangtu smiled wryly, and murmured, "Yuan Hao should know my situation by now, I'm afraid I'll be ashamed and thrown home."

Pangtu turned to think again, if he failed, should Yuan Hao be released?Got reused by Chen Ji?

I just thought about it, I don't think so
