The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Becomes a Disciple of Yue Buqun

The period of time after being captured and brought to Tianfeng Village was like falling into hell for them. Jiang Ning had killed so many bandits at this time, and they didn't know whether Jiang Ning was a good or bad person, but only by grasping this glimmer of hope could they have a chance to survive.

Jiang Ning also learned about the couple's son from them.

Jiang Ning frowned and remained silent. He looked at the couple and pointed at the bandit child.

"You can avenge your son now."

The couple was originally looking at the bandit Zhou Sanchun's son with hatred, but after hearing Jiang Ning's words, they could no longer hold back the hatred in their hearts and pounced on him.

"What are you doing! What are you doing!"

The woman screamed in horror.

"Stay away from me, don't come over here!"

The three of them immediately started fighting, and the woman tried to beat them back with all her might.

"Leave my son alone! Leave my son alone!"

The bandit's child felt the couple's crazy gaze and started crying in fear.

Jiang Ning looked at these people.

"You are the local people here, so you must know where there are bandits in the mountain strongholds. Tell me the locations of the mountain strongholds within a radius of several hundred miles, and I will help you get rid of them all at once."

Jiang Ning's tone was calm, but his words shocked these people.

Regardless of how the bandits reacted, the common people actually cried and kowtowed to Jiang Ning.

"Thank you, hero. Thank you, hero."

However, having said that, there are still only a few mountain strongholds that these people know about.

Jiang Ning then looked at the group of bandits again.

"Good man, if we tell you all the strongholds we know about, can you spare our lives?"

A bandit said in a trembling voice.

Jiang Ning said calmly: "I told you, I can let you die quickly and let your colleagues come down to accompany you."

"If you don't tell me, I will skin you alive."

After hearing such cruel words, a few bandits who had planned to die rather than tell the truth suddenly trembled, and their previous courage disappeared.

The Shaanxi bandits sighed inwardly.

"Everything is fate, nothing is up to you."

The bandit named Lao Hu couldn't help but look at each other and saw tears in each other's eyes.

This is all fate.

I thought I would never meet King Ning after escaping to Jiangnan, but who would have thought that not long after these good days, King Ning would follow me to Jiangnan like a shadow.

If the King of Hell really wants you to die at three o'clock in the morning, who would dare to keep you alive until five o'clock?

"Brother, you were right to call him the King of Hell. Now the living King of Hell is sending us to see the real King of Hell."

A bandit whispered bitterly.

He spoke in a very low voice, but Jiang Ning had sharp ears and still heard it.

"You are the ones who started to spread my nickname King of Hell?"

Jiang Ning looked at the bandits with some surprise.

Even when facing death, these bandits remained calm.

"You've killed people like crazy, even more cruel than us gangsters, like a living devil. I just said one sentence, but who knew it would get out."

After hearing these people's admission, Jiang Ning did not feel angry at all.

In fact, he didn't feel anything about this nickname, it was just that Yue Buqun was very dissatisfied with his name for a while.

Now that the culprit has been found, Jiang Ning can tell Yue Buqun about it when he returns this time, which will also relieve Yue Buqun's worry.

However, Jiang Ning still had to correct what these people said.

"I am now a knight in Guanzhong, certified by the imperial court."

Chapter 288: Fate, indescribable

These bandits traveled thousands of miles to Jiangnan in order to escape Jiang Ning's pursuit, but fate still led them to die at the hands of Jiang Ning.

Maybe this is fate, wonderful beyond words.

At the last moment before their death, the emotion in the hearts of these bandits was not fear, but relief.

Especially the bandit who often dreams about Jiangning.

Now he no longer has to worry about Jiang Ning suddenly finding them one day.

Jiang Ning also learned the location of the nearby stronghold from the bandits.

After all, although death is terrible, being tortured to death is even more terrible. They are not tough people.

Jiang Ning got a lot of information about the stronghold from these people, but these bandits could not guarantee that it was all, just what they knew.

Jiang Ning didn't care much about this. From then on, every time he went to a mountain village, he would torture the people and extract confessions to find out the loopholes and fill in the gaps.

At this time, the fight between the couple and the woman ended.

The bandit child was lying motionless in the woman's arms at this time, with an intense look of fear on his face before his death. His body was full of stab wounds, and some parts of his body were even missing pieces of flesh.

The woman also died.

The couple who had been there before also cried silently while holding the body of their dead son.

"You guys go down the mountain."

Jiang Ning looked at the couple and saw that the people had already gone down the mountain.

"thanks, thanks."

The couple kowtowed to Jiang Ning to express their gratitude.

Jiang Ning shook his head, said nothing, and asked them to go down the mountain.

There is a pile of corpses in this mountain village now.

Jiang Ning did not leave immediately. Before the people went down the mountain, Jiang Ning asked them to take the villagers up the mountain to transport food after a few days.

These bandits from Tianfeng Village have been entrenched here for so many years, and in addition to food, they have also robbed a lot of gold, silver and jewelry.

The grain can be distributed to the villagers to compensate for their losses from the robbery, but the gold, silver and jewelry cannot be given away casually. It is not good for them. A lot of unnecessary trouble will arise because of these gold, silver and jewelry, which is not what Jiang Ning wants to see.

Jiang Ning never underestimates human nature.

He planned to find a place to bury these things and deal with them later when he had time.

He is traveling now and has many places to go. He cannot deal with these things for the time being, nor can he take these things with him on the road.

After finding a hidden place to bury the gold, silver and jewelry underground, Jiang Ning came to a forest in the back mountain.

This is where the bandits confessed that in the past, after they captured civilians, women, and those who robbed people on the road and took them to the mountains to have fun, they would dump the dead people here.

At this time, Jiang Ning was looking at the forest. There were many bones here, some of which were covered with mud.

Jiang Ning dug a pit and buried the bones before going down the mountain.

……

"A good man has his life spared, a good man has his life spared."

In a mountain village, several bandits were busy kowtowing to a man, and there were corpses all around them.

"We were wrong. We will change. We will definitely change. Please don't kill us, good man."

Listening to the bandits' pleas for mercy, Jiang Ning shook his head.

“A lot of people have said this to me, but how can people like you change?”

After he finished speaking, there was a flash of sword light, and several bandits fell to the ground at the same time, with blood oozing from their necks.

Jiang Ning shook his hands to wipe off the blood on the sword, then sheathed it.

This was the last mountain stronghold he cleared out. Just now, when he tortured these bandits, they could not provide any information about other mountain strongholds. This also meant that he had cleared out all the surrounding mountain strongholds.

After clearing out this last mountain stronghold, Jiang Ning went down the mountain and headed towards Jinan Prefecture.

In the following days, Jiang Ning did not encounter any bandits who blocked his way and robbed people when crossing the mountains. He had a smooth journey until he crossed the mountains and came to a river on the opposite side.

There is a small town beside the river. After resting for a day in the town, Jiang Ning set out and went to the river to look for a ferry.

"Where are you going, sir?"

A boatman was sitting on the boat waiting to pick up passengers. When he saw Jiang Ning walking towards the shore, he greeted him warmly.

"Let's go to Jinan Prefecture, shall we?"

Jiangning Road.

"Let's go."

The boatman nodded repeatedly.

After agreeing on the price, Jiang Ning boarded the boat, but the boatman still did not leave.

Jinan Prefecture is a bit far, and it would be a waste to carry one person at a time, so he planned to carry a few more.

"Are there any people going to Jinan Prefecture? Are there any people going to Jinan Prefecture?"

The boatman shouted at the top of his lungs.

Not long after, several more passengers boarded the ship, also heading to Jinan Prefecture.

"Dear guests, the boat is about to start. Please sit tight."

The boatman shouted, then rowed the boat and started sailing.

"Hey, have you heard? It seems that all the mountain strongholds within a radius of several hundred miles have been razed to the ground."

As soon as these people sat down, someone brought up the topic.

"No, who cleaned it up? The government?"
