Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 458: Destroying the Bandits

Master Su He interrogated these people and found that they were not good people. Most of them had committed murders. They simply decided to enforce justice on behalf of the heavens, throw these people together, and burn the place down.

Then they sent a few people to drive the carts down to bring the bandits up, kill them directly, and then burn them to death. In fact, the best way is to let them go to the mines to mine or to the border town to repair the city wall.

But they were not officials to do this, and they didn't know whether there was collusion between this place and the government, otherwise why were these people doing evil here for so many years and still safe and sound.

Su He and the others knew that this was a very cruel thing, but when they saw the huge pit full of corpses in the back mountain, they felt that these people deserved to die.

Su He also found it very strange that there were no women or children on the mountain. After interrogation, he learned that there was a mountain village behind the mountain, and the families and children of these people basically lived there.

Since they were guilty and their parents and relatives were not harmed, Su He and the others would not look for them. However, this group of people could only be buried here to atone for the sins they had committed.

Besides, if it weren't for the Master, would Su He's family have been caught by these guys and come out alive? Most likely, their bodies would have been thrown into the back mountains and become wandering ghosts.

Therefore, being kind to bad people is the greatest indulgence towards them.

When they stood at the foot of the mountain and looked at the raging fire on the mountain, they knew that the bad guys had received the punishment they deserved. They worked hard all night, and in order not to be discovered, they packed up their things and got on the carriage and hurried on their way.

In the next few days, they traveled day and night. Because they had seized several carriages, they could take turns to rest, so they did not stop. The most important thing was to stay away from the mountain to avoid being discovered. The government could not control these people when they were alive, but if they died, the government might be the first to jump out and look for the murderer.

After three days and three nights, they had passed through several counties and finally found an inn in an inconspicuous town to rest. This town was mainly based on porcelain, and the houses built by people were all made of broken porcelain pieces and fired porcelain helmets. The whole town was engaged in making ceramics.

Porcelain bowls, cups, vases, pillows, everything that can be made of ceramics is made here. Su He and his friends strolled around the market, looking for ceramic utensils they liked, and finally, on a whim, they simply bought a cart of high-quality ceramics.

They thought that they could make some money by transporting them to the capital and selling them directly. Although they were not short of money now, who would complain about having too much money? In the past few days, they went to exchange all the yellow and white things for silver notes, which were convenient to carry and not eye-catching.

Su He's father generously gave everyone a sum of money. Everyone worked so hard this time, and the money was earned by everyone, so let's share it together. Everyone refused to accept it at first, but Su He said that this money was ill-gotten gains, so we should share it and do some good things.

A large part of it will not be divided. When we get to Beijing, we will adopt a group of orphans and use the money to raise them. This will also be considered as putting it to good use. Everyone agreed and accepted the banknotes.

They planned to exchange the jewelry for banknotes on the way and not take them to the capital. They were afraid of being recognized and causing a big stir. Who knew who was buried in the back mountain? Those bandits had been entrenched for so many years, and they probably robbed and killed all kinds of people.

They were selling things while they were on their way, because this time the convoy had ten carriages, and such a large convoy was equivalent to a escort agency. Moreover, they saw that the drivers were all young men with martial arts skills, so those scoundrels dared not go up to them and cause trouble.
