My old husband who can read minds

Chapter 266 Life and Death (Part [-])
It has to be said that Qin He's scheming was really powerful. Every sentence touched on the pain of people's hearts. Several masked men put down their weapons on the spot.

"Damn it, if the old thief Tongguan hadn't captured my wife, children and mother, I wouldn't have done such a thing as confiscating my family and annihilating my clan... Anyway, it's your business if you want to be beheaded and held accountable, I won't do it anymore. "

There was a masked man beside him who threw away the long knife in his hand and cursed.

Like many of them, he was originally a soldier stationed at the border. This time he was tricked back into the city by Tong Guan with a secret order to "track down spies." Only when he arrived at the Governor's Mansion did he find out that everything was set up by Tong Guan, an old thief. trap.

Although frontier soldiers usually wear their heads in their waistbands and have long been indifferent to life and death, can dying in battle be compared with the crime of treason and beheading?

No one is stupid, and naturally no one is willing to sacrifice his life for the old thief Tong Guan.

But this young thief who had killed thousands of people had already secretly controlled their family members. If they didn't obey, their family members would be killed.After the old thief Tong ruthlessly killed more than 20 people in several families, no one dared to resist his power and had to join the siege.

Qin He's words successfully aroused the dissatisfaction and hatred in these people's hearts.

Why did they sacrifice their lives for the old thief Tongguan, and end up with their family and family destroyed in the end, while he, the chief culprit, could get away with it and continue to live a prosperous life?

Since there is always a dead end, it is better to trust Master Qin once and make up for it, maybe there is still a chance of survival.At the worst, you can drag the old thief Tongguan into the water and let him be buried with him, so as to get rid of the bad breath in his heart.

There are many people who have this idea, so after seeing the big man discarding his troops and armor, other masked men followed suit, threw away their weapons, and surrendered to Qin He.

Qin He was overjoyed when a "swish, swish, swish" sound broke through the air in the distance.

He stared at it, his pupils widened instantly, and he thought something was wrong.

"Hurry and hide, there are archers ambushing you."

As soon as he finished shouting this sentence, he saw that the masked man who had led the surrender was shot through the throat by an arrow and fell in a pool of blood. In a moment, his body stiffened and he refused to close his eyes.

Immediately afterwards, the people who followed him and surrendered were also hit and fell to the ground. Some were killed on the spot, and some were lucky enough not to be hit in their vital organs. The situation was not optimistic either.

The sudden sneak attack made the two sides of the originally hostile people instantly frightened. Everyone fled in all directions, each looking for a place to hide.Fortunately, this place was originally a high mountain forest, with thick trees and towering rocks everywhere, which provided ready-made shelter for the two parties.

Qin He and a few others had just hid behind a big rock when they saw a figure clinging to him behind a big tree opposite. It was the leader of the group of masked men.

"Your Excellency, you have also seen that the old thief Tong Guan does not trust you at all. He secretly sent other people to clean up his tail. You must have guessed that these people are not here to clean up my tail, but to silence you. . Once you and my people fight to the death, and both sides suffer, these people will kill everyone present, including you and me, and destroy all traces of the corpses."

Qin He swung his sword to dodge the flying arrows, and said loudly to the masked leader: "Now you and I are standing in the same boat. If we don't agree with the outside world, we may die! Your Excellency, there is no relationship between you and me. There is no need to commit suicide because of hatred. It is better to join forces with me and avoid this murderous intention for the time being, otherwise we will all be buried here today."

Qin He used his inner strength to convey these words, and with the echoes in the valley, they reached almost everyone's ears.

The masked men who were originally resentful towards Tong Guan were completely turned against him now, their chests filled with anger and murderous intent.

Of course, this murderous intention was aimed at Tong Guan and the group of people who secretly ambushed him.

"Master Qin, I am willing to surrender and serve. Today I will work with you to kill the bandits and bring order to the chaos!"

As the first "righteous man" voiced his support, the enemy's camp then fell to Qin He like a torrent. Everyone shared the same hatred and vowed to fight until dawn.

Seeing that the situation was over, the masked leader, who had been shaken in his heart for a long time, lowered his head and surrendered to Qin He.

"Master Qin, we are willing to kill the enemy with you and atone for our sins. I only hope that one day when you go to the Qinzheng Hall, you can fulfill your promise and beg for mercy for us."

Qin He laughed loudly, "I always keep my promise and never break my word. Don't worry, everyone. You are all forced by the old thief Tong Guan and you have no choice but to do this, and you haven't had time to take action against me and others. You have not committed a capital crime, so you can forgive me. When the time comes, I and these owl-clad guards behind you will testify for you, and your majesty will definitely give you a lenient mercy."

After hearing Qin He's assurance, those people immediately became more confident and their morale was high, and they started to fight back against the other group of men in black who came up to kill them.

The fierce fighting echoed deep in the valley, startling countless birds.
