When he saw those people, hope flashed in his eyes and he quickly asked for help.
"Young men, please save me!"
“Save my family.”
Xiao Haoyang immediately dismounted and helped the man up from the ground.
"Tell me what happened slowly."
The man was the son of a wealthy businessman in a nearby city. He took his wife and children back to his mother's home to visit his relatives, but he didn't expect to meet bandits on the way. Not only did they rob him of his money, they also tied him up and took him back to the mountain stronghold.
He took advantage of the bandits' inattention and escaped, intending to call for help to rescue his wife, children and servants.
Xiao Haoyang comforted the man, briefly asked about the bandit's basic condition, and then he decided to rescue him.
"Don't worry, we will definitely rescue your wife and children."
After saying that, he looked at the other people.
The three women had no objections. Yu Jing looked indifferent and showed no interest, but.
"I want to protect Miss Mo. If she goes, I will go too."
The man was still a little hesitant. The people in front of him looked very young. Could they defeat those bandits?
Xiao Haoyang patted the man on the shoulder.
"I'm Xiao Haoyang from Longquan Villa. I may not be a martial arts expert, but I can easily take care of a few bandits."
When the man heard this, he felt relieved.
He had heard of Young Master Xiao from Longquan Villa.
In this way, the man took a few people up the mountain, ready to kill the bandits' stronghold.
The mountain road is rugged and difficult to walk on.
In order to avoid being discovered and alerting the enemy, they only drove their carriages and horses to a place a short distance away from the stronghold and hid them, planning to walk the rest of the way.
Among them, Su Yunruo suffered the most painful death.
She cursed a thousand times in her heart, but didn't dare to say much. She only showed an unbearable yet tough expression on her face, trying to arouse the sympathy of the men present.
Under normal circumstances, Xiao Haoyang would have noticed it long ago, but now he was so focused on getting to the mountain village as quickly as possible that he naturally had no time to care.
Several people came to the back of the village. It was already dark and torches were lit in the village.
Xiao Haoyang looked at the man hiding behind the bushes and said:
"You hide here first. Once we've dealt with those people, you can take advantage of the chaos to go find your wife and children."
"Do you know where they are being held?"
The man was panting, his palms sweating from nervousness. He nodded to show that he understood.
Then Xiao Haoyang gave more orders and looked at Ru Xue and Yu Jing.
"You two will follow me into the village."
Ruxue had no objection, but Yu Jing frowned.
"Are you setting me up?"
"If I remember correctly, I came here to protect Miss Mo, not as your subordinate."
The leader's attitude really makes people feel uncomfortable.
Mo Qin had an urge to hold her forehead, so she had to speak out:
"I'll go with you."
"I'll go with him, and you two will go together. Will we split up into two groups?"
Yu Jing remained silent, which seemed to indicate his agreement with this statement.
Xiao Haoyang was repeatedly rejected by Yu Jing. He felt only disgust towards this person who would not listen to him but to a woman.
In his mind, even if a woman has no more ability, she still has to be submissive to men and regard men as her heaven.
This time, Su Yunruo waited obediently and had no intention of joining in the fun.
If a real fight breaks out, it's no joke.
She has always cherished her life.
Xiao An naturally followed Su Yunruo, after all, his mission was to protect the young lady.
-
The place where Mo Qin and Yu Jing went was where the hostages were held, and there were not many bandits guarding them.
It's effortless to solve.
As soon as the two opened the locked wooden door, they heard a noise coming from the other side.
In less than half an hour, all the bandits in the village were captured.
A group of rough men with yellow and black skin were tied up with hemp ropes and thrown into the yard of the mountain village, looking miserable.
There were quite a few hostages held in the mountain stronghold, including the man’s wife and children, as well as many passers-by.
Now they all gathered in front of Xiao Haoyang with tears and snot, thanking him.
"It turns out to be Young Master Xiao from Longquan Sword Manor!"
"What a young hero!"
"Thank you so much! We can never repay you for saving our lives. We would love to be your slaves in the next life!"
Xiao Haoyang was delighted to hear these words of praise.
"What are you talking about? This is what we should do."
Everyone: "Young Master Xiao does good things without asking for anything in return, his reputation is well-deserved!"
"We will definitely publicize the young hero's virtues and let more people know his name!"
"This is the only thing we can do for you, young man!"
After verbally thanking their savior, the hostages packed up their belongings, lit torches, and went down the mountain along the road.
Xiao Haoyang couldn't help feeling a little elated, and all the unpleasantness he had felt before disappeared.
Su Yunruo's admiration was beyond words.
"Brother Haoyang, you are so awesome!"
"What should we do with these bandits? Kill them all?"
Xiao Haoyang leaned against the pillar with his sword in his arms, his lips curled up high.
"What are you thinking, silly girl? Only the devil can do such a cruel thing. Of course we have to hand these thieves over to the authorities!"
Yu Jing: “…”
The Demon Cult is not that idle.
Su Yunruo stuck out her tongue:
"I'm sorry, I've never seen anything like this before. It's just nonsense."
At this time, a thin young man wearing coarse linen clothes stood timidly outside the yard.
He looked around at the people standing at the door discussing something, hesitated for a moment, and then timidly grabbed Xiao Haoyang's sleeve.
