“Tie up these Mountain Bandits.” Heng Yi said.
At this moment, those who followed Heng Yi finally realized how strong the people they followed were.
The injured Mountain Bandits did not dare to struggle or beg for mercy.
The Mountain Bandits following behind them, disguised as a caravan, did not dare to move recklessly.
They regretted listening to the old woman and wanted to attack from the front and back.
In the end, they were almost wiped out.
The bodies were moved to the side and piled up randomly. The girls did not dare to look, but the boys were brave enough to lift the curtain to take a peek. But just one glance and they immediately closed the curtain. They were so scared that they did not dare to look again.
Their hearts were beating fast.
The group of carriages quickly passed through the valley. Behind them was a group of real caravans. The people driving the carriages did not dare to look at them directly.
It was simply too shocking.
After passing through the valley, Qin Cheng immediately went to the nearest government office and asked the people there to take away the corpses of the Mountain Bandits and explain the situation.
Whether it was the town deputy or the county magistrate, they loved this kind of merit the most.
After they left the valley, Han Qiao called out to Heng Yi, “Heng Yi, are you hurt?”
Heng Yi shook his head.
Han Qiao heaved a sigh of relief, “Hurry up and change your clothes. Come to the carriage and have some hot tea.”
“Yes.”
There was a carriage that was loaded with things, so he could go in and change his clothes.
Heng Yi went to change his clothes, but he didn’t get in.
Because he was still stained with the smell of blood, he was afraid of scaring the children and Ah-Yao.
Riding on the horse, he took the hot tea from the carriage and blew on it, drinking it in a few mouthfuls.
Han Qiao felt helpless.
Fortunately, after crossing the valley, they arrived at a village before dark. Everything was ready here, including hot water and food.
His clothes and pants were wet, so he quickly cleaned them up and changed. Heng Yi specially went to wash them and changed into clean clothes.
The dishes were already on the table.
“Sit down and eat.” Han Qiao scooped soup for Heng Yi.
“Hurry up and drink the soup first. When you’re about to sleep later, drink another bowl of ginger soup.”
Heng Yi agreed.
He picked up some food for Han Qiao and let the children eat.
Their dinner was a little heavy.
Although the Mountain Bandits were over, they were still a little flustered and afraid.
He Cheng wanted to sleep with Han Qiao that night, and Han Qiao let him. Later, Sun Ke also followed.
The three children were sleeping on the bed, so Heng Yi had no choice but to put a wooden board on the stool.
Han Qiao laid out the bedding for him.
“It’s a good thing we brought a lot of bedding. Otherwise, you would have to sleep with your clothes on.” Han Qiao teased.
“It’s okay if 1 don’t sleep.” Heng Yi heard.
On the bed, He Cheng and Sun Ke were playing peek-a-boo.
Ah-Yao didn’t know if he could understand. He opened his big black eyes and moved his hands and feet.
At such a young age, his strength was very similar to his father’s.
“Go to bed early. Perhaps someone from the government office will come in the middle of the night.” Heng Yi said.
“Don’t get up later. Leave the baby’s diapers to me.”
Han Qiao nodded.
After sitting in the carriage for a day, she felt a little sore at her waist.
She quickly fell asleep on the bed.
In the middle of the night, someone from the government office came.
Hearing the noise, Heng Yi got up and went to answer.
There was nothing much to say. After discovering the Mountain Bandits, he made the first move. As for the caravan that followed them, he also told them the truth that he suspected that one of them was a Mountain Bandit.
As for whether they could catch the person or not, it was the government office’s business.
“In that case, let’s do it this way. If anything else comes up in the future, we’ll look for you in Chenzhou City.”
When the people who came for the mission heard Heng Yi’s name, they had an expression of ‘if so’ on their faces. And, they were going to exterminate the bandits together. Although they didn’t know each other, they still had some faces.
Therefore, they talked to Heng Yi very politely.
Although Heng Yi didn’t talk much, he answered all the questions without being arrogant. He even invited them to rest for a while and asked the cook to prepare food and hot water. Everything was arranged well.
It was ten minutes before dawn, and the sky was clear.
They bid farewell to each other.
Heng Yi led his team to Chenzhou City.
The bailiffs and constables headed to the valley.
After the blood in the valley was washed away, it still stank.
Their bodies were piled up in a corner, looking especially horrifying.
When they were packing up, the constables and bailiffs covered their noses.
Especially since Heng Yi had killed all these bandits by himself.
“Good fellow.”
“If he’s so powerful, why doesn’t he join the army?”
No one knew the answer.
Heng Yi and the others didn’t mind and just walked on slowly.
Perhaps because Heng Yi’s ruthlessness had spread among the mountain bandits, the journey was quite peaceful. Even when they passed by the bandit territory, before they could send anyone to check, the bandits would come and ask them questions, and then let them pass without even taking a bit of money. They were also afraid of angering Heng Yi, so they rushed to the village alone and wiped out the entire village.
In addition, the road was easy to walk on, but they only arrived at Chenzhou City on the 6th of November.
Bai Cha had asked Shopkeeper Zhu to come and fetch them. Shopkeeper Zhu was worried about his mother, so he paid his respects to Heng Yi and Han Qiao first.
“Greetings, Master and Madam.”
“There’s no need to be so polite.” Heng Yi said indifferently.
Han Qiao smiled gently, “Go see your mother. She misses you.”
“Thank you for your concern, Madam.” After Shopkeeper Zhu finished speaking, he stumbled over to see his mother.
Han Qiao arranged a separate carriage for Old Lady Zhu. It was covered with a thick mattress, and there were servant girls and old women to serve her.
The old lady was sick and blind.
However, the servant girls and old women took good care of the carriage. The carriage was clean and there was no stench.
“Is it Mao’er?”
Mao’er was Shopkeeper Zhu’s nickname.
“Mother, it’s me.”
Old Lady Zhu happily extended her hand, and Shopkeeper Zhu hurriedly held his mother’s hand.
Her nails were neatly trimmed, and the gaps between her nails were clean. There was a hint of herbal smell on her hands. It was obvious that she had applied some ointment after washing her hands.
Shopkeeper Zhu went to see his mother again.
Her hair was neatly combed. Other than the fact that she couldn’t see, she was fine.
“Okay, okay, okay. Go and serve Master and Madam. Don’t worry about me. I’m fine.”
Shopkeeper Zhu smiled and replied, “Then, Mother, I will come back to have dinner with you tonight.”
“Alright, go now.”
The group walked for more than ten days. They were tired from the long journey.
They didn’t enter the city but stayed in a manor outside the city.
Bai Cha had already arranged everything and was waiting for his brother, sister-in-law, nephews, and nieces to arrive.
The carriage stopped.
The children got off the carriage first. Han Qiao carried her baby out of the carriage and watched the children run to Bai Chaa in high spirits. “Second Uncle!”
“Second Uncle!”
The sounds of Joy and enthusiasm instantly rang in the courtyard. The joy of reunion after a long time was painted in his eyes.
Han Qiao smiled and gave Ah-Yao to Heng Yi.
Heng Yi carefully took the child and gently helped Han Qiao out of the carriage.
Bai Chaa had already greeted the children and came forward to greet them. “Big Brother, Sister-in-law!”
Then, he stared at Ah-Yao, who was in Heng Yi’s arms.
He wasn’t around when Ah-Yao was born, but he had gone back for a while. It had been quite some time since they last met, and he missed him a lot.
Long enough to see.
The little fellow was very adorable.
He was fair and tender, and now that he had woken up, he could see how dark his eyes were dark. He was the most beautiful baby he had ever seen.
“Big Brother, let me hold him,” Bai Cha said eagerly.
Heng Yi looked at Bai Cha seriously for a moment. “You haven’t held a child before. Wait until you learn how to hold him.”
He was annoyed..
