Ye Ding suddenly pulled out the long knife from behind.
"What are you doing? I don't remember or recognize anyone in the Ye Mansion. Are you looking for death?"
Ye Ding asked with a frown.
The two guards looked through Ye Ding's back and saw Ye Feiyun riding on a tall horse. Their eyes immediately narrowed and they showed fear.
"I didn't know it was Young Master Ye who came in person."
The two men didn't dare to stop him anymore. They quickly put away their spears, made way, and knelt on the ground, kowtowing repeatedly.
Ye Feiyun has a very bad reputation. Not to mention ordinary gatekeepers like them, even officials in the court have to give way when they meet Ye Feiyun.
The grass on the grave of the last person who was beaten for not giving way is probably several meters high.
Ye Feiyun was not annoyed. He rode on his tall horse and asked condescendingly, "Let me ask you, did you see Wang Dafang just now?"
Wang Dafang is one of the four famous detectives in the city. He is well-known and almost everyone in the court knows him.
Several soldiers looked at each other, subconsciously thinking of something, and lowered their heads and said, "She went out. We just saw her go out. She was in a hurry and had a sword in her hand."
Several people dared not to tell the truth.
When Ye Feiyun heard this, he immediately became anxious.
"Let's go, chase them quickly!" With a clatter, Ye Feiyun spurred his tall horse, raising a cloud of dust and heading out of the city.
Ye Ding immediately waved his hand: "Follow me, follow me!"
A group of servants followed Ye Ding and rushed quickly in the direction where Ye Feiyun was going.
The two soldiers guarding the city were standing there in a daze, not understanding what was happening and looking confused.
"What's going on? Did Young Master Ye go out to chase someone just now?"
"I don't know. No, no, this matter must be reported to the court."
"yes."
There is a dilapidated temple on a barren mountain in the south of the city, surrounded by towering trees.
The sun shone through the gaps in the leaves onto the ground, and a few harsh curses were heard from the temple.
"These refugees are all poor people nowadays. After all the looting, they only got this little bit of gold and silver. It was really a waste of time."
"It would be so pleasant if a young lady with delicate skin and tender flesh came here at this time."
"What the hell are you thinking about? There aren't that many young ladies for you to choose from." The flattering laughter of several people mixed with a bit of obscenity came out from the temple.
Inside the temple, there were spider webs everywhere, weeds all over the ground, and all kinds of meat and wine piled on the ground, some with only bones left, making it a mess.
Four burly men were sitting there enjoying delicious food and wine, complaining from time to time.
Dozens of strong men in coarse linen clothes were sitting slumped on the side, their faces covered with dirt, but the ferocity in their eyes made people terrified just by looking at them.
Each person had a variety of weapons beside him, including knives and forks, some of which were even stained with scarlet blood and emitted a strong smell of blood. You could tell at a glance that these weapons were definitely stained with blood.
Just as they were stunned, a moment later, an anxious figure rushed in from outside, announcing anxiously: "Oh no, Boss, it seems that people from the city have come to suppress the bandits."
The leading big man glared, and then several big men looked over at the same time.
A moment later, everyone burst into laughter at the same time.
"Are you kidding me? Suppressing bandits? That's just bullshit."
Since they arrived in the south of the city, they have regarded this place as their stronghold.
Several of them were fierce bandits who had fled to the capital from other places. During this period, several waves of government soldiers had been sent, but they were all repelled by them without exception.
These officers and soldiers are really cowards. Not to mention suppressing the bandits, it's already good enough that they didn't get themselves involved.
Several people immediately looked down on the officers and soldiers.
“How many people came this time?”
The leading gangster glared, picked up a chicken leg and pulled it hard, chewing it in big mouthfuls, and asked with his mouth full of oil.
The person outside the door who came to report hurriedly said, "It seems there is only one person, one person?"
The big man stopped chewing and looked at him in disbelief.
“It seems to be a woman.”
"A woman?" The big man who was chewing a chicken leg suddenly started biting again, grinning at the man beside him and said, "Old Four, now it's your turn to have fun. Weren't you thinking about the young lady just now? Isn't this a gift for you?"
"That's good. I haven't had meat in a long time, hahaha."
"Let her in!"
The leading man shouted immediately.
"yes."
At this time, Wang Dafang was walking on the mountain path, one foot deep and one foot shallow, with sweat all over his pretty face.
She held the sword in her hand, her palms full of sweat.
She looked up at the scorching sun in the sky, then continued walking forward.
At this moment, a breeze blew, blowing on her sweaty face, which made her feel a chill in her heart.
She had known about this gang of bandits in the south of the city for a long time.
However, the government in the city sent troops to suppress the rebellion many times, but they were unable to take it down.
Wang Dafang was also angry with Ye Feiyun before, otherwise why would he come here.
But now that I was in this desolate wilderness with no village in sight and no shop nearby, I felt a little bit of fear and terror in my heart.
At this moment, she regretted coming here alone. She might not be able to suppress the bandits and might even get herself involved.
It's not that she didn't have the thought of turning back, but when she thought of Ye Feiyun's infuriating look, she immediately made up her mind, gritted her teeth, and muttered, "Humph, Ye Feiyun, since you hate me so much, then I might as well not live anymore. I'll make you feel guilty for the rest of your life."
Wang Dafang cursed angrily and immediately quickened his pace.
After a while, she arrived in front of a dilapidated temple.
Wang Dafang raised his eyebrows and looked around in surprise. It was so quiet here that there was not even a single person in sight.
According to the information she had obtained earlier, a group of bandits should have gathered here, with as many as forty or fifty people.
Leading the group were four fierce bandits who had fled from other places. These men were highly skilled in martial arts and had committed many murders and robberies.
The people who were deeply troubled by this reported it to the court many times, but those incompetent officials turned a deaf ear to it and just sent a few defeated soldiers to suppress the bandits. Without exception, they returned empty-handed.
At this time, Wang Dafang frowned, and suddenly drew out the sword from his waist with a "swish", looking around vigilantly.
Wang Dafang did not hesitate and walked slowly into the dilapidated temple.
Inside was a large bluestone Buddha statue with some spider webs hanging on it. There were messy weeds on the ground, and some wine and food that had not been cleaned up yet.
Facts have proven that there were indeed people here before, but where are they now?
Wang Dafang frowned.
After a while, a flattering laugh came from both sides behind her.
"Oh, whose young lady is this? I'm afraid she must have taken the wrong road and ended up in this dilapidated temple."
