Chapter 124 Life and Death!

Mu Yuhao frowned for a long time, then suddenly said, "No, I have to ask the magistrate!"

When communicating with Qin Yi before, the other party made it clear that it was not a long trip.

Then there is no possibility of staying overnight outside the city.

But now that the city gate is about to close, and Qin Yi hasn't come back yet, he must have encountered some kind of problem!
Liang Ankang froze for a moment, a little timidly, "No, the magistrate may not be willing to see us for such a trivial matter."

Zhang Dong was a little worried, and retorted, "Whether the magistrate sees us or not is another matter, we can't ignore it!"

There are bandits wandering outside, these guys are cruel and violent, if Qin Yi meets...

Shaking his head suddenly, Zhang Dong didn't dare to think about it. He only knew that Qin Yi hadn't returned so far, and it was probably an accident!

Mu Yuhao nodded and said, "My father is the jailer, he's a little thin-faced, the magistrate won't miss us."

After finishing speaking, he hurried towards the government office.

Be careful not to make a big mistake, please see the magistrate, and sincerely explain the purpose of coming, and you will not be blamed.

Besides, for Qin Yi, the magistrate must have favored him, otherwise he would not have arranged things for him.

Knowing that Qin Yi has not returned, perhaps the magistrate will also pay attention.

So going here is not reckless.

The three of them hurried all the way and finally came to the government office.

At this time, it was time for the office to be released, but perhaps it was King Mu who came, and many subordinate officials deliberately showed their modesty and did not leave.

So at this time, there are still many subordinate officials coming in and out at the gate of the government office.

Mu Yuhao's eyes were sharp, and he immediately recognized Ji Liang, the pawn who walked slowly into the government office. The other party had been a guest at his house, and immediately shouted, "Uncle Ji! Uncle Ji!"

Hearing the call, Ji Liang stopped, turned around, and saw three young men rushing towards him.

The one walking in the middle was Mu Yuhao whom he had met a few times before.

A smile appeared on Ji Liang's face, "Yu Hao, come to find your father? He really hasn't finished his work today."

Bringing Zhang Dong and others to catch up, Mu Yuhao suppressed the impatience in his heart and said, "Uncle Ji, I want to see the magistrate!"

Ji Liang froze for a moment, and was extremely surprised, "What's the matter with you?"

When King Mu came to inspect, he had clearly acted as if he was dedicated to his duties, but he still hasn't left yet.

But he didn't go back, he didn't leave, as a member of the fourth rank, Zeng knew that it wasn't something anyone could see if he wanted to.

Even if Mu Yuhao is a family member of an official, it's the same, and he can't see each other if there is no important matter.

Mu Yuhao said quickly, "At noon, we met Qin Yi. He said that it would not take too long to go outside the city to handle affairs under the order of the magistrate. But now that the city gate is about to be closed, he has not returned yet. It is not safe, so we would like to ask the prefect whether this is normal."

Hearing this, Ji Liang frowned suddenly.

For other government officials, as long as it is not urgent, who cares when they return to the city.

But Qin Yi is different. This is a talent that both the emperor and Mu Wang have personally praised. Just for this alone, the government cannot tolerate neglect.

In addition, the magistrate relied heavily on Qin Yi, and he couldn't tolerate the latter's accident.

So Ji Liang nodded and said quickly, "You come in with me."

After finishing speaking, Ji Liang took Mu Yuhao and the three of them all the way to the back hall.

Asking Mu Yuhao and the others to wait outside the hall, Ji Liang walked in quickly.

In the hall, Zeng Mingzhi, who was dozing off, woke up suddenly when he heard footsteps, and quickly looked down at the copybook on the table.

"My lord, the little one has something to report!"

Hearing it was Ji Liang's voice, Zeng knew that he relaxed slightly, leaned back, leaned against the back of the chair, and replied, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

While talking, he looked at the hourglass in the corner and realized that it was getting late.

As a result, he thought to himself that there shouldn't be any problem if he returns home later.

"Mu Yuhao, the prisoner's son, just came to tell the younger one that Qin Yi was ordered by the lord to go to work outside the city, but he has not returned. Considering that it is not safe outside the city, he came to ask the lord if this is normal. " Ji Liang bowed his hands and said respectfully.

Zeng Mingzhi was stunned for a moment, and quickly asked, "Which adult?"

In his impression, during the interrogation at noon, King Mu did not arrange tasks for Qin Yi.

"Qin Yi said that he followed your orders." Ji Liang replied.

Zeng Mingzhi raised his head abruptly, with astonishment on his face.

There were thousands of thoughts in his mind.

Although I don't understand strategy, how can I not know how to know the world's sophistication?
He immediately understood that Qin Yi's words were just an excuse.

What was he going to do, and why was he using himself as an excuse?

Could it be that he secretly obeyed King Mu's order, but it's hard to say it out, so he used himself as an excuse?

Thinking of this, Zeng Mingzhi secretly nodded.

Most likely!

After all, Qin Yi's martial arts, strategy, and investigative abilities are far beyond ordinary people. With such a talent, it is normal for King Mu to have important arrangements.

That being the case, there is no need for them to discuss the matter of King Mu.

Zeng Mingzhi immediately said, "There is indeed such a thing, there is no need to worry, I have my own measure."

When Ji Liang heard this, the worries in his heart were instantly eliminated, and he quickly replied respectfully, "Yes."

He stepped backwards out of the back hall, and informed the three people outside the hall.

Mu Yuhao and the others were still worried. No matter whether there was an arrangement or not, it was not safe for Qin Yi to go out alone late at night.

But when the magistrate said so, they had no choice but to nod their heads and left the government office together.

……

In the tightly guarded house, King Mu sat behind the table, his back straightened, and he was looking at the documents in his hand.

Zhang Qianhu, who was dressed in soft armor, stepped in and said respectfully, "My lord, there is a letter from the spies."

Putting down the document in his hand, King Mu looked up, "Say."

"In the near future, the spies discovered that Qin Yi was heading southwest, more than twenty miles away from the city." Zhang Qianhu replied.

Originally, there was no need to report the discovery of Qin Yi's whereabouts, but the other party captured Jiao Mao himself, and his actions may have something to do with the bandits.

King Mu pondered for a moment, then replied, "Don't worry about it."

Although Qin Yi is extraordinary, he is not an enemy, so there is no need to pay attention to the other party's whereabouts.

Zhang Qianhu nodded, his face became a little dignified, "Another spy sent a letter saying that bandits were found in the southwest direction. There are quite a few of them, there seem to be hundreds of them, and they are coming to Fucheng."

After hearing this, King Mu frowned slightly.

hundreds of people?
Coming to Fucheng?

He immediately understood that these bandits were not the remnant bandits scattered by Qin Yi, but a new batch.

The other party may have some conspiracy!
Thinking of this, he immediately said, "Order Lilan to garrison and go to suppress the bandits!"

Zhang Qianhu took the order and was about to leave when he suddenly heard King Mu's voice, "Hurry up!"

Zhang Qianhu was stunned for a moment, but heard King Mu say, "Qin Yi is heading southwest from the Fucheng, and bandits are coming from the southwest to Fucheng. They are likely to meet."

Qin Yi was the hero who repelled the bandits. If he died in the bandits' revenge after a few days, if the news spread, the court would be extremely ashamed!
Zhang Qianhu understood immediately, quickly responded and ran out of the house.

……

Garrison camp, in the big tent.

The spy guard who came to convey the letter, after conveying King Mu's order, turned and left.

But Quan Shenhan was silent and motionless, and Liu Luo who was standing beside him was a little surprised.

King Mu clearly said that it must be done as soon as possible, but why didn't the captain leave?

"General, it's time to wear armor." Liu Luo reminded in a low voice.

Quan Shenhan shook his head, his eyes narrowed tightly, "The bandit is still tens of miles away from Fucheng, don't worry."

Liu Luo was a little puzzled, it wasn't a matter of distance, it was King Mu who asked for it as soon as possible, but the captain was evading it, could it be...

Could it be related to Qin Yi?
The spy guard raised his mouth just now, saying that Qin Yi might encounter bandits and should rescue them as soon as possible.

So the captain deliberately dawdled?

Liu Luo immediately understood.

He knew that Captain Captain and Qin Yi had a deep hatred, but he didn't expect that Captain Captain would dare to respond in such a way when King Mu sent an order, just to let Qin Yi be buried by bandits.

I have to say, my lord is really brave!
Quan Shenhan showed a cold smile, "Send out scouts to investigate first, as for me...don't worry, take your time!"

……

Qin Yi frowned, and carrying Meng Qun, he walked quickly through the corridor and rushed towards the entrance of the cave.

He felt anxious, wishing he could punch Meng Qun a few times.

This guy chattered a lot with him, so it was just to delay time!

damn it!
Be quick!
If he is surrounded by bandits, he will surely die without a place to bury him!

He became more and more anxious, took three steps at a time, quickly walked out of the cave, and was about to rush to the distant forest with Meng Qun when he heard a sound in his ear.

That was the sound of dense footsteps!
The sound gradually became louder, and the earth seemed to be shaking!

Not far away, the dust is rising high!

Qin Yi's heart tightened, and he was about to evacuate when dense bandits poured out from the surrounding woods, each with a fierce face and a weapon in their hands, blocking his way.

Seeing the dead bodies all over the ground, Meng Qun was being carried, and many bandits stared fiercely like wolves, staring at Qin Yi, almost wanting to devour him!
In a short while, Qin Yi was completely surrounded, and there was no way to escape!

His heart sank rapidly!
