Crossing the Unknown Country

Chapter 457 Encountering Robbers on the Road

There were many mountain roads at this time, and sometimes they were unfamiliar with the roads and had to camp outdoors, so men were safer. Fortunately, Su He and the other two were dressed as men, otherwise it would be dangerous in Chonglou County.

They bought four carriages in the county and headed towards the capital. Because there were many of them, especially young men, few people bothered them.

On this day, they came to a place where there was no village in front and no shop behind. As the sky gradually darkened, they could not go forward and could only find a place near the water to rest.

They took out the tents and set them up, placing the carriage next to the water so that most people could sleep in the carriage, and the rest could rest in the tents and take turns to keep watch.

Su He gave his master the powder he prepared. If he encountered wild animals or bad guys, he would cover his mouth and nose with a cloth and sprinkle it directly on the other party. He would make sure that the person would faint with one hit. Su He also placed medicine bags in several cars, just in case.

At midnight that night, there were sporadic noises coming from afar, gradually approaching them. The night watchman suddenly woke up, quietly woke up the person in the nearest tent, and asked the awakened person to notify the others.

The people in the car were still half-awake when they heard the fighting outside, but luckily they were prepared. By the time they ran out, the fighting outside had already ended.

There were seven or eight people lying on the ground, Su He and the others quickly covered their noses. There was still some residual smell of drugs in the air. After a long time, everyone tied up the people and poured water on one of them to wake him up.

This guy looked honest, but he turned out to be a black-hearted guy, rolling his eyes and not wanting to tell the truth. Su He took out the drug and let him smell it, knocking him down. Then he poured water on the other one to wake him up. They didn't want to bother to interrogate him, so this time he told everything directly.

They were the bandits from the nearby hilltops, about fifty people on the hilltops. About twenty of them came down this time, and the rest were waiting for their news near the hilltops. Here, a whistle was blown, and they came over.

They had been watching them all day before deciding to attack at night, because they saw that there were so many men and it would be difficult to attack during the day. They thought they could launch a surprise attack when everyone was asleep.

Who knew they would be discovered as soon as they arrived, and before they could react, they were all mesmerized. Su He and the others heard this and decided to catch the turtle in the jar, otherwise they would come over to check if they saw that there was no movement here.

Su He asked this guy to blow the whistle, and they gathered all the people together, roasted the meat on the fire, and waited for other bandits to come. When the bandits heard the whistle, they ran over happily, smelled the meat, and prepared to move things.

The awake guy responded obediently, and he dared not disobey. Su He asked his brother to feed him a pill, and told him that if he didn't obey, he would not be given the antidote. After a few hours, he would bleed from all seven orifices and die.

He could only obey obediently, and when those people approached, they sprinkled the prepared powder on them. Some people felt something was wrong and turned around to run, but it was too late, and they fell down after walking a few steps.

They captured more than 20 bandits without a fight, tied them up and had someone watch over them. The others followed that guy and went up the mountain to make a fortune. They had encountered such a big fat sheep, so when would they kill it?

They were walking in the back, and the two masters Su He led the people forward first. They needed to knock those people out first. Master Su He was quite good at Kung Fu. When they arrived at the gate of the village, he knocked the guy unconscious and threw him aside.

They climbed over the village wall, flew onto the roof, sprinkled drugs into each house, and finally knocked out all the guards before opening the village gate. They waited for everyone else to come up and tied them up together.

Then they began to search their belongings. Su He asked his brother to wake up a guy who lived in a better place and asked him where he had put the stolen things. The guy wanted to lie, but Master Su He stabbed him in the arm with a knife and he immediately told the truth.

After they searched everything and took out all the things, they were also quite surprised. There were boxes of gold, silver and jewelry, several large boxes, as well as cloth and food. Su He and his team found a carriage and loaded it directly, ready to transport it away.
