Chapter 71 Can Be Trusted

At this time, General Li said loudly: "You were good people, but now you have become bandits and a scourge to the people. By the order of the imperial envoy Zhang, you will be killed without mercy!"

Soon, the bows and arrows in the hands of the officers and soldiers were aimed at the bandits trapped in the middle.

After a hail of arrows, the bandits were all shot dead.

Shen Yunxi heard clearly that among the officers and soldiers there was a man in official uniform, the imperial envoy Zhang, who also had a sword in his hand. Is that the legendary Shang Fang sword?

When Chief Tamura saw that the bandits were all shot to death, his face turned red. "We are really saved."

After all the bandits were killed, the imperial envoy Zhang Zhao looked at the people at the top and said, "Are those people in front of you who are fleeing the famine in Guangyang Prefecture?"

After the officers and soldiers killed the bandits, everyone thought that the officers and soldiers were not with the bandits. They also believed that Mr. Zhang was an imperial envoy sent by the emperor, and believed that these officers and soldiers would not kill people.

All the people shouted, "Yes, we are fleeing famine."

Imperial envoy Zhang Zhao looked at the people with mixed feelings in his heart. "The bandits in Wolf Mountain have been eliminated by General Li, and the remaining bandits have also been eliminated. Now you are safe. Don't hide in the forest. Go to the mouth of Qingmei River quickly. There are Official ships, they can take you across the river for free."

When the people heard this, they were first surprised, and then cried with joy. They knelt down and kowtowed to Mr. Zhang and said, "Thank you, Mr. Zhang, for saving our lives and giving us a way to live."

Village Chief Tian was both suspicious and afraid. He looked at Shen Yunxi and said, "You know better from the Youqing family. Do you think Mr. Zhang is reliable?"

Shen Yunxi thought for a while and said decisively: "Reliable, uncle village chief. Look, there were four to five hundred bandits killed and injured this time, which is more than the number of people fleeing famine in this area."

If the officers and soldiers colluded with the bandits, it would be impossible to spend such a large sum of money. This person should be a real imperial envoy, not a fake. If he ordered the bandits to be shot, he can be trusted.

This is not a place where you can stay for a long time. The caves we live in are carved out by rivers, and they will be flooded after the flood season.

Let us pack our bags quickly and get to the mouth of the Qingmei River early. We can also cross the river early and go to the south to find a suitable place to settle."

Chief Tian felt that Shen Yunxi was right. The government showed its sincerity by killing the bandits. This is really not a place where they can stay for a long time. They must leave as soon as possible.

Just when Shen Yunxi was about to leave, Shen Yunxi saw the officers and soldiers below picking up the gold leaf mud cakes on the ground, and shouted: "Don't touch the leaves on the soil. They are poisonous."

Shen Yunxi said it was not too late, but the soldier moved very quickly and had already touched a gold leaf, and immediately screamed in pain.

When the surrounding soldiers saw this, they threw away the mud cakes in their hands.

General Li was also very curious and asked, "May I ask, little girl, what is that?"

Shen Yunxi calmly replied: "Report to the general, a young man named Tian Tieshuan from our village discovered it. He accidentally touched his arm and it was very painful.

Later, we did experiments. Severe ones may be fatal, and minor ones may be painful. Facing those bandits, we had no weapons, so we tried to hide a piece of gold leaf in a mud cake in case of emergency. .Unexpectedly, we used it.”

At this time, Chief Tian was so frightened that he could not speak. He was afraid that he would say the wrong thing. Unexpectedly, his nephew-in-law, the Youqing family, was so brave.

Imperial envoy Zhang Zhao was stunned. He didn't expect such a powerful thing. "Is there a complete plant?"
