The poisonous woman is frivolous, please be gentle with me, Your Highness.

Chapter 179 You're Not Lying

"But, I am really innocent. They forced me to do this. If I didn't do what they said, they would kill me. Please, sir... forgive me..."

"Let me ask you, how long have you been living here? What evil things have you done?"

"And where is your lair? Who are the people in it?" Bai Yulang stared at the person in front of him.

If His Highness had not arrived in time, they would have been in real danger this time.

"Well... I was originally a teacher at a private school, but was accidentally kidnapped by them and taken to the mountains. The others were mostly refugees taken in by the mountain villages. They had no choice but to do this because they had no other way to survive outside."

"We didn't do anything bad. We just came down from the mountain to rob some food. We never intentionally hurt anyone."

"Besides, we are all the people in the village. In the current situation, we can't even get enough food. If we don't act together, I'm afraid it will be difficult to maintain our lives..."

Military Advisor Ge also began to wipe away his tears as he spoke, and seemed particularly pitiful.

But the people in front of him still looked heartless. "Let me ask you, the court has already issued a public notice, ordering the disaster victims from all places to be arranged in the nearest town."

"Why didn't you do as I said, and instead became bandits?"

"This..." Military Advisor Ge was embarrassed and looked very painful. "It's not that we don't want to go. It's just that the Menghu Village is so powerful that they won't let us go even if we want to."

"I see. However, we still need to investigate this matter. If what you said is true, we can also pardon your crimes depending on the circumstances. You just need to do labor. If we find that you are lying, Dongli law will never let you off!"

A drop of cold sweat slid down Military Advisor Ge's forehead.

"Wait, I have something to ask you too."

Seeing that several people had finished asking questions, Bai Qianxi suddenly spoke up and looked at the old man in front of her, "Since you said that you are all refugees gathered together, then let me ask you, is there anyone sick in your village? How do you deal with these people?"

"This……"

Military Advisor Ge had tried his best to avoid this question, but unexpectedly Bai Qianxi asked it anyway. He didn't know how to answer it for a moment.

"Tell the truth." Thirteen's cold voice sounded at the side, with a hint of threat.

"Yes Yes."

Looking at the cold weapons in the other party's hands, Military Advisor Ge had to speak up, "Our boss is only recruiting healthy refugees now. As for those who are sick..."

Military Advisor Ge glanced at Bai Qianxi carefully and said, "They were all... they were all buried on the spot..."

"What did you say!" Bai Yulang suddenly raised his voice, and Advisor Ge was startled.

He couldn't help but explain, "These things... these things were what our boss wanted to do. I also advised him... It's a pity that the boss didn't want to listen to me."

Military Advisor Ge had a bitter face, implying that this matter had nothing to do with him at all.

After asking all the questions he wanted to know, Ye Beiling had Advisor Ge tied up and forced him to reveal the names of the remaining gang members in the village.

Most of these people have been dealt with by Ye Beiling and Shisan, but there are still some that slip through the net.

After tying these people up, some guards were assigned to watch the remaining refugees, who had already been frightened by the situation before them.

Especially after Ye Beiling revealed his identity, everyone cried out that they were innocent, and some even began to publicly report the evil deeds done by the people of Menghu Village.

"Your Highness, we were all forced. My wife and children were taken away by them just because they felt a little uncomfortable..."

"Yes, and my old father was killed by the village because he was too old. If I hadn't agreed to join them, I'm afraid I would have lost my life."

"And my wife and poor daughter..." "Be quiet!" A vibrating voice with inner strength sounded, "We already know about your affairs. Now you just stay here quietly and cooperate obediently."

"We will take our people to the village now. If your wife and children are still alive, we will definitely rescue them!"

As soon as these words came out, they were thanked countless times again. "As long as Your Highness is willing to rescue my wife and children, we are willing to work like slaves!"

Ignoring these people no longer, Ye Beiling first counted the number of people with Bai Qianxi and left the injured guards here temporarily.

At the same time, Bai Qianxi simply treated their wounds and won praise again.

"I'll leave this place to you. Keep an eye on these people and wait for us to come back."

"Don't worry, Miss Bai. We will definitely live up to your expectations!"

Forced Advisor Ge to lead the way, the group started to set off. At the same time, Bai Qianxi also asked Bai Yulang to stay behind.

I'm afraid something unexpected might happen.

Hearing this, Bai Yulang was a little reluctant for a moment, and said sullenly, "I don't want to stay, Xier, let me go with you, so that I can protect you."

"No need. I feel at ease leaving this place to you. Besides, I am not without the ability to protect myself." Bai Qianxi refused.

Thirteen also spoke up, "That's right! With my master here, are you still worried about not being able to protect Miss Bai?"

Bai Yulang was silent. He looked at Bai Qianxi and then at Ye Beiling, and finally compromised.

Bai Qianxi, Ye Beiling and others led Military Advisor Ge up the mountain. The Tiger Village was built on the opposite mountain, deep in a very hidden cave.

"I advise you to be honest and not play any tricks! You were not lying when you told us just now, right?" As they climbed up the mountain, several people looked around vigilantly.

Thirteen warned again.

"No, no, how dare I lie to you all?"

"That's good. You have to know that if you dare to lie to us, we will lose our lives, but you will lose yours first!"

"Yes, yes, yes." Military Advisor Ge nodded again, with an expression on his face that showed he was complaining. He had never expected this.

This time, the village just robbed someone randomly, but unexpectedly robbed Ye Beiling.

Even he had heard of the Third Prince's bad reputation, and it turned out that he had a green evil ghost mask just as the legend said.

"Well... Actually, there are some things that I just forgot to remember. I hope you gentlemen won't blame me if I tell you now?" After hesitating for a while, Military Advisor Ge decided to speak.

"I'm afraid you didn't remember it, but you probably didn't want to say it just now? So why do you want to say it now?" Bai Qianxi turned around and instantly saw through his little thoughts.

"This..." Military Advisor Ge didn't know how to explain for a moment.

Fortunately, Bai Qianxi didn't intend to embarrass him any further. "Tell me, what are you hiding?"

"It's like this... Actually, there are more than three heads in our mountain. There is also a fourth head. However, our fourth head usually doesn't like to take charge of things, so we forgot about him for a while."

"So this is ah."

Looking into Bai Qianxi's clear eyes, Ge Jun suddenly felt that all the secrets were exposed in front of her.

"Besides this...are you hiding anything else from us?"
