Idle game leads to another world.

Chapter 1602 There is something else behind

I will fight against injustice when I see it. This is Yang Yiyi's principle as a hero. She just can't stand injustice.

So when she heard that bandits had robbed a convoy, she became excited on the spot.

But we definitely can’t let Yang Yiyi go alone, and if there are too many people, it won’t be convenient to move quickly.

Of course, this is not possible for someone like Wu Shaoyi who has to be carried by Yang Yiyi while walking on the mountain road.

So Zhou Yuxuan asked Qin Yan and Yang Yiyi to take a look. If there was any trouble, they would come back and discuss it carefully.

Ning Xianer also wanted to go and take a look, but protecting Tang Lianyu was the most important thing now. No one could tell when Anxiangtang would come knocking again, so it was better for Ning Xianer, a capable old man, to stay.

Now that she had something to do, Yang Yiyi was no longer sleepy. She had a quick lunch and followed Qin Yan into the mountains.

Qin Yan knew where the Hai Shi Gang was. A few years ago, he had visited the pier with the brothers from the Sixteenth Village. Although he had only been there once, he could still find it roughly.

Both of them were very good at Qing Kung Fu and moved extremely quickly, flying away almost without stopping for a moment.

After climbing over two mountains, Qin Yan led Yang Yiyi through the woods and found a stream flowing along dead leaves. They then followed it and came to a hidden valley.

The entrance to this valley is narrow, but the inside is wide, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is rarely found by outsiders, and even locals would not go so deep into the mountains.

As soon as I came in, I saw a village in the distance with a flag with the word "Hai" on it.

"Don't go over there, let's go around to the side and take a look first."

Qin Yan grabbed Yang Yiyi who wanted to approach directly, and the two of them jumped up and stepped on the mountain wall to go around the side, using the sparse bamboo and trees on the cliff as cover, and soon approached the mountain village.

The scale of this village is not small. It looks like a farmland. You can even see cultivated farmland and children running around and playing.

There are not only bandits in the bandit stronghold, but also family members.

It was the first time for Yang Yiyi to see a bandit village and she was quite curious. Qin Yan, on the other hand, had grown up in the Sixteenth Village and was naturally familiar with the scenery in the village.

She led Yang Yiyi to continue moving along the cliff wall and towards the back.

"Look, there's someone in the cage."

Looking in the direction Qin Yan pointed, in the village diagonally below, there were several large iron cages, large enough to hold bears.

But now there are a few people in the cage who look like servants, sitting dejectedly.

Miss Jiao said that her father came to argue with the Hai Shi Gang, and of course he did not come alone. These should be the servants he brought with him.

However, I don’t see anyone who looks like Miss Jiao’s father here, and the age isn’t quite right.

Keep walking back.

The first part was a typical mountain village scenery, which Qin Yan was no longer surprised by, but the second half made Qin Yan couldn't help but frown.

Generally, when there is nothing to do, the village will organize training for young and strong laborers, and many people can indeed be seen standing in the open field at the back.

But this doesn't look like training.

The people on the field were divided into four groups, all holding weapons and looking like they were about to engage in a fight.

Conflicts within a village are inevitable, and different villages have different solutions, usually a fight.

But we must not form cliques and create conflicts, as this will lead to the collapse of the entire village.

This reminded me of what Miss Jiao said about the Hai Shi Gang's leader suddenly dying recently. It could be that everyone in the gang was dissatisfied and started to form cliques and factions and wanted to become the boss themselves.

Qin Yan was thinking about these things in her mind, but Yang Yiyi seemed eager to try.

When can we go down and fight?
"Behave yourself. It's best not to fight if you can avoid it."

Li Chengqi said:
"Go a little further in. I don't see Miss Jiao's father here."

The Hai Shi Gang and the Sixteen Villages are just brothers in the underworld. They usually give each other a hand when they mention their names, but it’s not that close.

Qin Yan didn't really care whether the Haishi Gang would fall apart or get a new leader. Anyway, let's first determine where the people are, and then talk about the Haishi Gang.

The two continued to carefully move back, bypassing the largest open space. Behind it should be a warehouse or something like that.

After walking around for a while, the two found several carriages with flags with the word "Jiao" on them. They must have been robbed recently.

But there is still no sign of Miss Jiao’s father. Could he have been killed?

Come to think of it, it doesn't seem right. That family seems to be very rich. Wouldn't it be much more cost-effective to hold the person hostage and ask for a ransom than to kill him?

Miss Jiao hasn't received any messages asking for money in the past two days, so it shouldn't be a simple kidnapping.

After taking a quick look at the Haishi Gang's structure, Qin Yan whispered:
"Let's jump in from the back and see where Master Jiao is imprisoned."

Under normal circumstances, as long as Qin Yan went to the gate of the village and showed her identity, and then explained her purpose, the Hai Shi Gang would still be willing to do her a favor.

After all, the name of the Sixteen Villages is very well-known among the bandits, so it is not difficult to give them some face.

But it is hard to say what the current situation of the Hai Shi Gang is. It seems like they are competing for the leader of the gang. There may be other reasons why Mr. Jiao was detained, and the other party may not give him face.

In this case, speaking directly to the point might alert the enemy, so Qin Yan decided to go in and take a look first. If she could rescue Master Jiao, that would naturally be the best.

Yang Yiyi had no objection. She had wanted to go in a long time ago, and she might even have wanted to start fighting right away...

Sneaking into the village was a piece of cake for Qin Yan. She was more worried about whether Yang Yiyi would make too much noise.

But unexpectedly, Qin Yan found that Yang Yiyi could not only keep up with her, but also moved more quietly than her.

The Dengyunbu was not learned in vain, this skill is particularly outstanding in terms of speed, calmness and stability.

Since Yang Yiyi could keep up, Qin Yan became bolder. In broad daylight, they moved quickly along the corners of the wall. Sometimes, when someone just walked by, they could turn around and see Yang Yiyi and Qin Yan moving forward stealthily. It was very exciting to watch.

But then again, this village is quite large. Qin Yan took Yang Yiyi to several houses that looked like they might be holding people, but they still found nothing.

As they walked, Qin Yan led Yang Yiyi to the largest house, which looked like a gathering hall.

The two of them were leaning against the shadows of the wall, and Qin Yan signaled Yang Yiyi not to move.

From a window not far from the two of them, a voice came from inside:

"Brother, you are so timid, it brings shame to our brothers!"

"It is for the sake of our brothers that we must be careful."

"I think big brother is right. Huzi, you are just too reckless."

"But if it weren't for me, where would you brothers get the gold, silver and treasures?"

"Tiger!"

"Humph!"

It sounded like there were three people inside, and it was unclear if there were more.

Then, another voice said:
"That old man from the Jiao family..."

"Brother, have you finally made up your mind to send that old man off?"

"No, that old man has a wide network of contacts. If we take action against him, you and I will have no peace."

"Are we just going to keep him like this? I say, big brother, you take money from people to help them get rid of their misfortunes."

No, wait a moment.

Why does it sound like there is something behind Mr. Jiao's detention?
