Chapter 214 If soft tactics don’t work, use force!
When it was just daybreak, Xiangying and his companions set off.
She spent the whole night peeling snake skin, and her fingers felt sore in the morning.
However, looking at his fruitful results, Xiangying was very satisfied.
When a tiger came to rub the back of Xiangying's hand, she generously gave it two bundles of snake meat.
Pei Qinglin saw her peeling the snake last night, so Xiang Ying only put half of the results into the space, and she packed the remaining half into a bag and asked Xiang Yuanlang to carry it for her.
The patient Xiaoqi who was bitten by a poisonous snake was left alone.
Pei Qinglin was a little worried when he saw that he was unconscious, so he arranged for an extra soldier to stay with him.
The rest of the group continued to follow the tiger into the dense forest and finally stopped before noon.
This time, there was no need for the tiger to lead the way. Xiangying pushed aside the gaps in the bushes and saw the bandit camp in the distance.
The stockade was strictly built, with two people patrolling on the high platform at the entrance.
Afraid of being seen by them, Xiangying pulled Pei Qinglin and the others to lower their bodies.
After observing for a while, everyone found that the gate of the village was very high, and it would probably not be easy to attack it by force.
Xiangying thought for a moment and whispered, "General Pei, let's rest first and wait until the dead of night before we take action."
Pei Qinglin nodded, he had the same idea.
Everyone retreated, hiding themselves in the dense forest.
After making sure they were out of sight of the bandits, the group sat down again to discuss countermeasures.
Pei Qinglin drew the location of the bandit camp on the ground with a serious expression.
"They must be very numerous to be able to build a stronghold in such a deep mountain."
"It would be great if we have an insider, otherwise we can only attack with force."
While they were discussing, Xiangying remained silent.
She seemed to be slightly distracted, but she was actually debugging a drone in space.
Pei Qinglin saw that she was silent, so he specifically asked, "Master Wang, what do you think?"
Xiangying took the time to reply: "After dusk, I will sneak in first. I will then fire a cannon as a signal. When you hear the sound, you can just come in directly."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Pei Qinglin looked at her, a little surprised: "How did you get in alone?"
Xiang Yuanlang answered directly for Xiangying: "My father can do everything, he can climb walls and rooftops, pick doors and unlock locks... um."
His mouth was covered by Xiangying.
"Don't listen to the kid's exaggeration. I'm just better at Qinggong and it's not easy to be discovered."
Pei Qinglin smiled and said, "Young Master Wang's skills are indeed amazing."
Xiangying made a detailed plan and Pei Qinglin had no objections.
While waiting for dusk to come, Xiangying made an excuse that he wanted to take a nap and closed his eyes leaning against a tree.
She entered the space, flew the drone out directly, and overlooked the entire village from a high altitude.
The houses in the village were arranged in an orderly manner, which reminded Xiangying of the bandit village of Lu Feiyi.
However, the scale is naturally incomparable to Lu Feiyi's.
Xiangying roughly calculated that there should be about forty people on the other side.
I just don’t know which room the abducted Princess Xining is in.
Xiangying took advantage of the convenience of the drone to survey the entire terrain of the bandit camp.
After descending again, he sneaked into their interior and searched everywhere.
The granary and the place where the treasure was placed were found in turn.
Looking at the dazzling array of treasures, there was everything, most of which were obtained by this group of bandits during robbery.
Xiangying resisted the urge to loot.
She wanted to keep it until tonight before taking it away together. If she acted now, she would be discovered by the bandits who were patrolling back and forth.
While searching for supplies, Xiangying also discovered a heavily locked room.
There are seven or eight bandits guarding outside.
She originally wanted to adjust the drone, move aside a tile, and see if Princess Xining was imprisoned inside.
Just at this moment, an old woman dressed in extravagant clothes came.
She swayed her waist, knocked on the door twice, and said in a pinched voice: "Princess, I am the matchmaker sent by the head master to propose marriage. What do you think about the last matter?"
A cold female voice came from inside the door: "I won't marry a thief unless I die."
The matchmaker frowned, feeling it was difficult to deal with: "Oh, Princess, it doesn't matter who you marry. Our boss is a man of integrity and will definitely love you after marriage."
"If it weren't for him, you would have married to Northern Qi, which is thousands of miles away. It's cold and harsh there, and it's far away from our Nanyue. Why bother with that?"
The princess didn't say anything else, but just threw a lot of things at the door.
"roll!"
The crackling noise frightened the matchmaker so much that she took several steps back.
The matchmaker waved her hands and shouted rudely: "Okay, go ahead and make a scene. I'm going to talk to you now and you won't agree. When the boss loses his patience and uses force on you, don't cry!"
"You don't want the sedan chair carried by eight people, and you insist on suffering. I can't do anything about it. If you have the guts, just keep making trouble!" The matchmaker shook her head and left.
Xiangying noted the location of the house, and Princess Xining was inside.
And it seems that she, who is of noble status, was noticed by the gangster.
Xiangying controlled the drone and followed the matchmaker.
Sure enough, the matchmaker was seen twisting her waist, walking through the houses, and walking up the steps into a yard.
The drone followed the matchmaker into the house.
Through the screen, Xiangying saw a short and fat man with a tiger skin on his head, dark skin, and two machetes in his hands.
The man saw the matchmaker and stood up quickly: "Second Mother, how is it, did she agree?"
"Agree? Don't dream! I've said everything I should say, but you insisted that the princess was very educated and particular, and asked me to pretend to be a matchmaker to propose marriage. She didn't fancy you at all!"
The matchmaker took off the handkerchief on her head and threw it down, looking unhappy: "She said that if you want her to marry you, she must die!"
The short and fat boss became instantly angry.
He picked up two machetes and said, "Damn it, I wanted to show her some respect, but she actually looked down on me."
His eyes rolled, and he thought of something. He threw away the knife, called his younger brother outside, and ordered him, "Go, tell the people in the village that there will be a banquet tonight, and I will marry the princess!"
The woman called Er Niang widened her eyes and said, "Didn't you hear what I just said? She refuses to marry you."
The big boss sneered: "Now I don't care whether she is willing or not. Since she doesn't know her place, I won't be polite to her!"
"I'll make it a done deal first. When I become the emperor's son-in-law, I'll let the princess have my baby. Then I'll see if the emperor dares to send people to arrest us!"
When the bandits standing outside heard this, they all clapped and cheered.
They were preparing enthusiastically, and Xiangying quietly controlled the drone to leave.
What a great opportunity that has come to me.
The gangsters are holding a banquet tonight, which is a good opportunity for her to sneak in.
Before Xiangying left, he used a drone to place explosives in several hidden locations in the village.
Just wait until night time to catch them all in one fell swoop.
Night slowly falls.
In the evening, Xiangying quietly approached the bandit camp.
