"Dad, Mom and elder brother are up too. I'll go with you to take a look." Yun Yiyi said as she picked up her stick in her hand.

"Well, let's go."

Yun Yiyi and Yun the Butcher ran towards the direction where the sound came from.

Many families in the village were awakened by the noise. More and more torches were lit. The woods became bright, and the mule carts and horse carriages moving outward became particularly conspicuous.

"There, someone is here to steal my carriage and mule cart." Li Xiucai shouted frantically.

The village chief heard the shouting and ran over, "Everyone, come with me and stop them."

Many villagers ran out of the woods with sticks and hoes in their hands.

Yun Yiyi ran the fastest. Holding a stick, she quickly caught up with the mule cart behind.

The bandit who was leading the mule was hitting the mule with a branch in his hand, trying to make the mule go faster.

Yun Yiyi swung at the bandit's shoulder.

"It hurts so much, who hit me?" The bandit was knocked to the ground by Yun Yiyi with a stick.

Yun Yiyi didn't have time to say anything, and hurried over to hit the bandit twice more with the stick. The bandit fell to the ground, completely unable to move.

"Village chief, Dad, you keep an eye on him. Everyone else, follow me and chase the carriage ahead."

"Be careful, Yiyi."

"I know, Dad."

The other two bandits were quicker and had already led their horses to the official road. They watched as the bandits boarded the carriage and started to drive.

"Stop, don't run."

Yun Yiyi took two short legs and quickly caught up.

As the carriage went farther and farther away, the villagers who were still chasing it gradually stopped.

"Yiyi, wait for me."

"Brother Zirui, why are you here?"

"Yiyi, someone will come to help us soon."

"Okay, Brother Zirui. I think the bandits are running towards the entrance of Shilin Town."

"Maybe there are people there to pick them up."

"Then let's run quickly, Brother Zirui."

"This is weird! The adults have given up and stopped chasing us. But these two kids are chasing us like crazy."

"It's really strange. How about this, you drive the carriage, and I'll throw some of the things out. Otherwise, two carriages won't be able to accommodate so many people."

"Okay, hurry up."

The bandits threw down all the baskets and food bags in the carriage.

Soon, the carriage arrived at the entrance of the town.

"Boss, hurry up, someone is chasing us."

"Okay, hurry up and get in the car."

The carriage stopped and everyone hurried to get on.

Another carriage coming from the town had already run ahead.

"Brother Zirui, I'll run a few steps first."

Yun Yiyi exerted force with her legs and her speed increased immediately.

When she arrived at the carriage, there were still two bandits who had not gotten on.

Yun Yiyi picked up the stick and swung it up.

The bandit behind raised his knife to block Yun Yiyi's stick. However, he didn't expect the child to be so strong.

He was bent down by the stick.

Yun Yiyi retracted the stick and continued to swing at the man in front.

The boss in the car swung his knife over to block Yun Yiyi's stick.

Yun Yiyi was shocked. The man who swung the knife must have quite good martial arts skills.

So, she gave up on the person in front who was anxious to get on the carriage, and kept swinging her stick at the person behind her.

This man's martial arts skills were not good, and he was defeated step by step.

"Come up quickly, I'll pick you up." The boss shouted loudly.

"Boss, I don't need you to help me. Hurry up and leave. There are many pursuers behind us. If we don't leave now, we won't be able to leave."

"Boss, don't waste time, let's go quickly. I can hear the noise on the official road behind us."

"Yes, Boss. You don't have to feel bad. The brothers all volunteered."

"Yes, Boss, if it were us, we would have the same idea as him."

The bandits driving the cart also quickly waved their whips and started driving.

Just as Yun Yiyi was about to catch up, the person who volunteered to stay blocked the official road.

"If you want to pursue the boss, you have to get past me first."

Xie Zirui also caught up.

"Yiyi, we can't catch up with the carriage. There's no point in wasting our energy. Let's just leave this person behind."

"Okay, Brother Zirui, let's go together."

Xie Zirui nodded and rushed forward with a stick in hand.

The bandit hurriedly raised his sword to block the stick.

Yun Yiyi seized the opportunity and hit the bandit in the waist with a stick.

The bandit's knife was still raised above his head, so Yun Yiyi's stick hit him hard on the waist.

The bandit fell to the ground suddenly.

Yun Yiyi and Xie Zirui hurried over to mend the sticks.

By the time the two men stopped, the bandit could only groan.

"Brother Zirui, I just heard him yelling "Big Boss" to the people on the carriage. I guess they are all bandits from Qingfeng Village."

"If that's the name, then it's correct. Since the boss has escaped, it seems that the bandits in Qingfeng Village have been wiped out by others."

"That's great. Maybe we can continue our journey tomorrow."

"Yiyi, I think there will be accurate news from Shilin Town tomorrow morning."

At this time, the officers and soldiers who had been chasing behind came over.

"Is that the person you two caught on the ground?"

"Yes, uncle. They just went to our village to steal a carriage, and I caught up with them."

"However, it's a pity that only this one person is left. The others have all driven away in their carriages."

After Yun Yiyi finished speaking, she sighed with regret.

There were more than a dozen officers and soldiers who chased after him. They looked at the person lying on the ground, motionless and only able to groan softly.

I looked at the two six or seven-year-old children next to me and felt that this world was a little crazy.

The officer questioning the situation paused for a minute and then continued, "Did many people escape?"

Xie Zirui also turned to look at Yun Yiyi. He arrived late and indeed did not see how many people had escaped.

"I only know they drove two carriages, and they left the first carriage before I arrived. I don't know how many people were in that carriage."

"I know the carriage behind. Including the driver, there are eight people in it."

"Oh right, the man on the ground called out to the people in the carriage, 'Big Boss.' Someone in the carriage agreed."

Yun Yiyi added another sentence.

"Then their identities are confirmed. They are the bandits from Qingfeng Village."

"Uncle, we are no longer needed here. We need to go home. If we don't go back, the adults at home will be worried."

"Then you two should go back. Do you need someone to take you back? It's still a little dark now."

"No, uncle, just give me a torch."

"Okay, then you two should be careful."

Xie Zirui took the torch handed over by an officer and said, "Yiyi, let's go."

"Okay, Brother Zirui."
