539 Take some sheep
Before going out, the three men changed into black tights, put medicine they would use in their waistbands, and carried a crossbow and a dagger with them.
Xiao Wu was walking in the front. Although he and Uncle Ming made detailed observations yesterday evening, he had a general idea of what was going on.
The three of them jumped over the wall.
Wanli said softly, "Master Ping'an, those children are all in the low house at the back. It was probably used by the farmers before. The master said that after these people bought the farm, they did not take over the original farmers. These people are probably in the main courtyard."
Ping'an stared at the main courtyard in the middle of the manor. There were fruit trees everywhere in the manor, which was both a good thing and a bad thing for the roundup.
The good thing is that there is cover when approaching these people, but the bad thing is that if there is any disturbance, these people can easily slip away.
"Uncle Ming, we have to rush over and administer the drug as soon as possible. In half an hour, it will be light outside."
"Yes, Master Ping An, you guys follow me. There must be several rooms for 20 or 30 people. Let's give them drugs separately. This should be the best time to sleep."
The three of them performed the Snow-Walking Step at the same time, and in just a few breaths, they had arrived at the corridor of the main courtyard.
A quarter of an hour later.
The east and west bedrooms in the main courtyard and the side rooms, a total of six rooms, were all drugged with the best drug that Ping An and the others had.
The best drug, even if used in small quantities, has a quick effect and the person cannot wake up in half a day. Of course, an antidote can be used to wake them up in advance. However, if the dosage is not controlled well, using too much will cause death.
"Xiao Wu, go in and search. We've used so many good medicines, we can't leave nothing behind, but we don't have to scrape it clean either. It'll look ugly."
Xiao Wu grinned, and floated in with Uncle Ming.
Ping An carefully observed the surroundings. What if there were still people on guard who, knowing they could not escape, wanted to take someone with them before they died? What should he do then?
His premonition was indeed strong. He saw two people coming from the direction of the farmhouse, talking and laughing. When he got a little closer, he heard them saying dirty words. It turned out that they were going to bully the little girls.
When they came a little closer, Ping An flew over like a nighthawk and slashed the carotid arteries of the two men with the dagger in his hand.
People like this deserve to die.
The two people lying on the ground didn't know who wanted to kill them until they died.
Wanli and Xiaowu heard the sound of someone falling to the ground and rushed out.
"These two people are..."
"Uncle Ming, I killed the guy from the opposite house who bullied those girls. Did you get the stuff?"
Xiao Wu nodded: "I found some silver notes and some nice knives."
"Okay, let's go."
Lord Duan and Lord Lu had been looking forward to it for a long time, and finally saw the three people returning gracefully.
"Ping An, what's going on?"
"Sir, they are basically all drugged, but two people came from the farmhouse and were killed by us. I don't know if there are still such people over there."
Duan Chang understood as soon as he heard it.
These beasts bought a lot of girls and took them back to use as breeding tools. How could they not bully them?
"Lord Lu, since most of the people have been drugged by Ping An and his men, you should arrange for some officers and soldiers to surround the farmhouses."
A quarter of an hour later.
As expected, the officers and soldiers caught several people seeking pleasure in the house over there.
Including those who were poisoned by the drugs and those who died, there were exactly twenty-eight people.
All the living ones were tied up and loaded into the car. They were dizzy and it was hard to tell when they would wake up.
There were 128 boys and girls imprisoned, among whom five little girls committed suicide on the spot out of shame.
It was too late for Ping'an to learn about this, otherwise he would be willing to accept these poor people to work in the village.
Why should you punish yourself with your own life for someone else's fault? This may be the sadness of women in this era. They are afraid that they will never be found again after they get out.
If I hadn't taken care of this matter today, these people wouldn't have died, right?
No, you can't think like that. At least we saved so many children. Otherwise, if they really went to other tribes, only a more difficult environment would be waiting for them.
Ping'an and the others sat on the stone slabs in the yard. The search and confiscation were none of their business.
When Zhuangzi was in chaos, the morning light filled the entire village. The big fruit trees in the village were laden with fruits. If you ignore the dead bodies on the ground, it would have been a very peaceful place.
It’s the exact time of Chen.
Lord Duan walked towards Ping An with a smile on his face. "Thanks to Ping An, only a few of our people were slightly injured, and no one died. Let's go back to the city. I will write a letter to report this matter today."
Ping An smiled and said, "Congratulations on your victory, but I think you should take two steps. One is to briefly explain the matter, send a pigeon to send a letter, and then write down the details in detail and send someone to run the trip in person.
Sir, I asked the Youzhou man this afternoon, and he said that it seemed that there were other places where similar things were happening at the same time. Once the news spread, if there was any disturbance, these people would have already run away."
Lord Duan sighed, "Yes, Ping An's reminder is correct. Fortunately, we brought a lot of carriages with us. All these people were transported away in carriages. The curtains were drawn, and we, including ourselves, were separated as much as possible. It is not difficult to hide here. We will send some of the children back first and come back to pick them up."
Lord Lu nodded, "I'll leave some of them to watch over the children, and the carriages will go back separately. It's still early and won't attract attention, but we have to hurry."
Half an hour later.
Half of the people drove out of the village, separated on the road, and headed straight for the city.
Ping An was lying in his car, drowsy.
This matter was no small matter. It would alarm the imperial court and the Dali Temple. It would be of some help to his father's official career, but it didn't matter to him.
He thought about it carefully. These people should not have found out that it was him who attacked at night that year. After all, he was only twelve years old at that time and had not shown any kung fu. In the eyes of outsiders, his master was just a weak doctor. To be precise, his master really did not have any kung fu.
It's not that he is timid. If he were alone, he would not be afraid of anything. But with a whole family, everyone is his weakness, so he has to be fearless.
After returning safely to the city, he went straight back to the inn, and he didn't have to worry about what happened next.
Wan Changsheng and Chang Chunfeng rushed over together: "What happened to Ping An? Is he hurt?"
Without waiting for Xiao Wu to answer, Ping An opened his eyes and said, "Are we there yet? Father, Dad, I'm fine. I'm just too sleepy. Let's go back to the room and talk."
Chang Chunfeng and Wan Changsheng naturally knew that they couldn't talk about it casually outside. The case was over, and there were many things that they couldn't say out loud.
Ping'an returned to the room and told his two fathers everything in detail. He only concealed the fact that he asked Xiaowu and Uncle Ming to collect some compensation. He himself didn't know how much Xiaowu and the others took, maybe just a little.
Chang Chunfeng and Wan Changsheng's hearts were pounding with fear.
Wan Changsheng said, "Ping An, don't worry about these things in the future. Just do your own job well, that's better than anything else. Don't tell your mother about this when you go back, I'm afraid she can't bear it."
Chang Chunfeng agreed with this statement. That person was very timid.
