The next day, as soon as we entered the mountains, a spy came to report.
"The bandits from Panlong Village captured the leader of Qingfeng Village, but they escaped again."
"Huh?" Fang Zhiyi was speechless. How could he still run?
Led by their spies, they easily surrounded Panlong Village. Some bandits, seeing that the situation was not good, slipped down the mountain early and picked up their hoes to become farmers again.
After just a few shots fired into the air, all the bandits in Panlong Village surrendered.
The name "Fang Bandit" has spread. Don't surrender? Expect your skin to be exposed and put on display! They treat others like this, so they'll have to think twice when it comes to themselves.
But they still underestimated Fang Zhiyi's ruthlessness.
It was still a trial on the spot, with Fang Zhiyi reading out one evil crime after another. The bandits bowed their heads and prayed, even if it meant exile or banishment, they would never kill anyone.
But their fantasy was still shattered. After Fang Zhiyi finished reciting the crime, he slowly took a sip of tea and said, "Punishment."
The bandits were in an uproar.
Someone shouted: "Surrender your weapons and you won't be killed! Surrender your weapons and you won't be killed!"
Some people also shouted: "Treat the prisoners well! Treat the prisoners well!"
Others shouted, "There are so many of us, you can't kill us! God has mercy on us!"
Fang Zhiyi spat out a mouthful of tea: "Damn it, now I remember that God has mercy on me."
Panlong Village was packed with people, and the trial had already lasted a full day and night. The bandits who had been tried had all died horribly: some had been beheaded, some hanged, and some even torn to pieces by horseback. Blood splattered everywhere, creating a scene of unparalleled gore and horror.
The bandits who had not yet been tried were already terrified, many of them fainting on the ground. Even if they were awakened by the cold water, they would only be awake for a moment before fainting again from extreme fear.
However, in this chaos and fear, Fang Zhiyi stood out. He sat there calmly drinking tea all the time, and from time to time he would find a wild place to urinate.
"Captain, have all these bandits... been killed?" One of Fang Zhiyi's men walked up to him and asked hesitantly.
Fang Zhiyi turned his head, glanced at his men, and said calmly, "I'll keep you alive instead of killing you."
"But..." The subordinate seemed to want to say something, but Fang Zhiyi interrupted him.
"I know what you want to say." Fang Zhiyi sighed, "Eliminating bandits is not something that can be done overnight. Of course I am willing to do it. But first, we have to scare these bandits. Only then will they be cautious. I want them to be afraid."
After hearing Fang Zhiyi's words, the subordinate nodded thoughtfully, and his eyes gradually became firm.
Various rumors about this anti-bandit campaign spread around Xicheng. The locals vividly described the bandits' heads hanging on every tree, as if the scene was actually happening before their eyes.
Although this was obviously an exaggerated rumor, it was undeniable that everyone who witnessed the scene was terrified by the tragedy and was haunted by nightmares for several days.
The security group led by Fang Zhiyi has now become a nightmare for the bandits. Not only that, but even the bandits within a hundred miles are terrified and have packed up their belongings and fled to the mountains in panic, fearing a chance encounter with this "madman".
After all, no one wants to provoke such a brutal and powerful opponent.
