Chapter 168 Suspicious
Ruan He narrowed his eyes unambiguously, his usually gentle face clearly showing a sharp and cold look. When those people saw it, they were immediately frightened and their legs weakened.

In order to truly threaten the person, Ruan He used a little force with the hand holding the dagger, and a bright blood line was cut on the person's neck, and a little blood slowly seeped out.

"Ah..." The man screamed in horror. He was obviously a big man, but he showed a panicked look and hurriedly said: "Auntie! Auntie, I don't dare to run away, take the knife away first!"

Many of the people in this team had seen her kill mountain rats with their own eyes. She was known to be quick and accurate, so naturally they didn't dare to provoke her.

"I...I just want to survive!"

"That's right! There are only so many official officers, how can we defeat those bandits!"

"When Guan Cha dies, we will be the ones who die!"

They were talking, shouting, and trembling, each and every one of them fearing that they would really die in this official way.

Ruan He raised his voice, glanced at them coldly, and shouted loudly: "If you want to live, just listen to me!"

She took a long dagger, cut a bunch of weeds and piled them around them, and then asked Mu Yunchao and others to pick up nearby branches and other flammable materials and pile them up.

No one asked about the purpose of doing this. Under Ruan He's knife, no one dared to resist and honestly followed her instructions.

After piling up a huge circle with flammable materials, Ruan He took the iron tool and slammed it on the flint. With a muffled "chi" sound, the flames suddenly ignited!

Scattered flames shot up and fell on the surrounding weeds and branches, burning quickly and gradually forming a prairie fire.

Heat steamed up, and the dazzling fire quickly burned into a large circle, firmly protecting them inside. If the bandits outside wanted to come in and kill people, they would have to step through the ring of fire alive.

Ruan He Leng had a stern face, glanced at the group of frightened prisoners around him, and signaled: "It's safe for now, just wait for the government to rescue them."

"Then...how do we get out..." The prisoners looked at the blazing fire ring outside and asked tentatively in surprise and fear.

With such a big fire, if the fire is not put out in time, even if they are not burned alive, they will be choked to death by the thick smoke!

She didn't bother to talk to the prisoners who were still frightened. She raised her head and set her sights not far away.

The officials were still fighting with the bandits, but fortunately, Mu Yunxiao's fighting strength was one to ten. Even with a simple long dagger, he could easily attack among the bandits and cut them quickly and accurately. 's throat.

But even so, their number is still too small compared to the bandits. The further they are pushed back, the more they are exhausted, which is when they will be defeated.

According to time calculation, Wang Xiaoer should have arrived with the government's reinforcements by now, but they have not arrived yet, and they still need to hold on for a while.

Ruan He thought for a while, then pressed the weeds on the side of the fire ring. The thick smoke filled the air and formed a striking black smoke in the air.

She wanted to use this black smoke to urge Wang Xiaoer in the distance to come back as soon as possible. They really couldn't hold on much longer.

Not to mention whether the officers could defeat the bandits, on the other hand, they couldn't stay in the ring of fire for too long. That would undoubtedly be a joke with their own lives.

Not long!

A shout rang out from the distance of the official road, followed by waves of flying hoofs and roars.

Through the billowing smoke and dust, Ruan He could vaguely see figures of flying horses appearing in the distance.

Among the crowd, someone shouted with tears of joy: "Here comes someone! Someone comes here!" "Boss! I'm back!" Wang Xiaoer shouted at the top of his lungs as he galloped on his horse. He came, holding a big knife in his hand, and came straight towards the group of bandits.

Behind him, well-armed officers and soldiers galloped over on horseback and quickly joined the battle.

After a while, all the masked bandits were wiped out. They resisted to the death, and almost all of them died under the swords of the officers and soldiers.

At the same time, Wang Xiaoer led some officers and soldiers to scoop bucket after bucket of river water from the nearby river, doused the fire ring around the prisoners, and let them out.

Ruan He took out the potion that had been prepared in advance and applied it to the wounds of the injured officers one by one. He also asked them each to take a sip of the potion, bandaged the wounds and eased the injuries.

Fortunately, Mu Yunxiao was not injured. He was squatting next to a bandit and groping around with a serious expression.

Li Jiang walked up to him, looked at his solemn expression, his serious face looked tired, and asked, "Did you find anything?"

Mu Yunxiao shook his head and said, "I have looked at all the bandits, and I haven't found anything suspicious so far."

In other words, they had no evidence at all to determine whether these bandits and the men in black were the same group.

There is no way to find out the origin of the man in black through this group of people.

This almost means that the fight they just had was of little significance.

Ruan He had already bandaged the wounds of the officials, and when he came over, he happened to hear these words.

"Let me see."

Seeing the solemn expressions of the two of them, Ruan He calmly put down the kettle in his hand and said.

There was no telling what she might find out of the ordinary.

Ruan He stepped forward, squatted down, and examined the body of the bandit next to Mu Yunxiao.

Without any hesitation, she unzipped the clothes on the bandit's upper body and took a closer look, but found nothing out of the ordinary.

"There are fewer wounds." Ruan He shook his head, vaguely feeling strange, and just commented calmly.

If they were really bandits, they would have had many opportunities to carry knives to rob people. Their bodies could not be so smooth. There were almost no old wounds. The only wound was the one that Mu Yunxiao had just stabbed. Fatal knife edge.

But this was just Ruan He's thought. After all, the lack of a knife edge might just be because the bandit was the first to be a bandit, or he had been very careful before and had not suffered any injuries. This is not impossible.

Ruan He raised his eyes and looked at Mu Yunxiao beside him, and asked casually: "Are everyone like this?"

If all bandits were so smooth, it would be a bit suspicious.

"No, this person is the only one who doesn't have any common scars on his body." Mu Yunxiao immediately denied Ruan He's guess with one sentence.

This was an important reason why he repeatedly inspected the body just now, but he really didn't find anything else suspicious.
