Chapter 139: Two versus Hundred
"Ouch! It hurts! Please spare me, my hero! It hurts!"

Gu Ping'an was filled with resentment, and the grip he held on the Yellow River Gang member's shoulder became tighter and tighter. The pain made him sweat profusely and he begged for mercy.

"Tell me, where are the three Yellow River ghosts now?"

Seeing a glimmer of hope, the Yellow River Gang member quickly put on a fawning face and said flatteringly, "It's on a mountain outside Jizhou City. I'll take you there right away!"

"Jizhou?"

Uncle Shi spoke up to clear up his confusion: "It's Gengzhou. It was renamed a few years ago. We country folk are used to it, so we still call it Gengzhou."

Gu Ping'an nodded, then glanced coldly at the Yellow River Gang members on the ground, leaned over, picked them up from the back, and threw them onto the horse.

"Uncle Shi, Aunt Shi, this Yellow River Gang has done a lot of harm to people. We must eradicate it completely."

Uncle Shi looked worried. "Mr. Gu, Young Master Gu, I've heard of the Yellow River Gang. They have at least a few hundred people. Isn't it too risky for you to go alone?"

Gu Pingan smiled at him: "Who said I was alone? I still have Nianci."

"This"

"Don't worry, uncle. Since we dare to go, we are sure of it. But..."

Gu Ping'an suddenly paused halfway through his words, feeling a little confused again.

Seeing this, Mu Nianci took out two silver ingots from her bosom and stuffed them into the arms of Shi's wife.

"The fighting here is fierce, and the conscription officer died here. I'm afraid the Jin people will come to the village again in the future. It's best for you to move out as soon as possible."

The Shi family's daughter-in-law repeatedly refused, looking terrified: "You have already left so much money, and you have worked so hard to save our family. How can we have the face to accept more?"

Gu Ping'an shook his head and said, "Traveling far away is unpredictable, and the child is still young, so it would be better to have more money with you."

Aunt Shi sighed, "But the world is in chaos right now, and there's no news from the eldest brother and his wife. Where can we escape to?"

"Why don't we go to Lingyuan Village?" Mu Nianci suddenly said, "At the foot of Mount Zhongnan, with the protection of the Quanzhen Sect, it will be more stable."

The eyes of the three members of the Shi family all lit up, and Uncle Shi finally made the decision: "Let's go back and pack up, leave a message for the eldest brother's wife and the others, and leave this afternoon!"

After agreeing to meet on the way, the three of them said goodbye with many thanks and hurried back to the village.

Gu Ping'an and Mu Nianci led the Yellow River Gang and rode towards Jizhou.

"My two heroes, I have done nothing evil. I was forced by the situation and had no other choice."

The man boldly flattered and chattered all the way, listing the evil deeds of the three ghosts of the Yellow River one by one, and put the blame of the crime of conscripting men for the Jin soldiers on the dead man, clearing himself of all charges.

"When we get there, please treat me like a kite, no, like a fart. Just let it go."

Gu Ping'an was annoyed when he heard this, and he gave him a look that scared him like a quail again.

He had a clear understanding of the situation. The Yellow River Gang had been committing many evil deeds over the years, and had taken many lives. Now they were colluding with the Jin people and killing innocent people.

Such evil deeds were targeted by this mysterious figure with superb martial arts skills. I am afraid that after today, the name of the Yellow River Gang will no longer exist in the world.

The Jin people really found a good place for the three ghosts of the Yellow River. To the north of Jizhou, forty or fifty miles east of Hukou, there is a mountain nearly a thousand feet high, called "Renzu Mountain".

According to legend, when Duke Wen of Jin was avoiding the danger of Li Ji in the Spring and Autumn Period, he hid in this mountain for several years. It is unknown where he got the title of "Ancestor of Human Roots" from.

Most of Shanxi is barren, but this mountain is full of towering ancient trees, clusters of flowers, and rare birds and animals can be seen everywhere.

The three of them reached the foot of the mountain and found a deserted village to tie up their horses.

"The Yellow River Gang's current residence is halfway up this mountain. I've found the way. Please help me find the way."

The Yellow River Gang member gave a flattering smile and said in a fawning tone, "We'll talk about it when we get there."

Gu Ping'an glared again, and the man had no choice but to point out the direction and was carried up the mountain by the two men.

We kept walking all the way and reached the mountainside at dusk.

This is a dense forest. Looking forward, you can vaguely see a flat area with dozens of military tents set up on the open ground. This is where the Yellow River Gang is located.

"Good man, hero, this time it's really here."

This man couldn't be as innocent as he claimed, so how could Gu Ping'an let him go? He slapped him lightly with a palm and took his life.

In the end, he didn't dare to lie, but he just left himself an intact body.

"If you ask me, the three leaders are really capable! Look at our lives now, we are much more carefree than before!"

"That's right! Silver is available, wine is available, grain is available, and game is everywhere. I wouldn't trade this kind of life for a high-ranking official!"

"Damn it! Think about how we used to make a living on the river, exposed to the wind and sun. It was simply unbearable suffering!"

Several bonfires had been lit in the camp, and on the fire were a wild boar, three pheasants, and a large number of game that could not be named but would be worth a pair of silver bracelets in a thousand years.

The aroma is wafting and the bonfire is blazing.

The wild boars were roasted with sizzling oil, and their faces were full of smiles and pride.

The members of the Yellow River Gang sat in a circle, drinking, talking and laughing loudly, completely unaware that a catastrophe was about to happen.

In the middle of the crowd, three people were holding wine in one hand and meat in the other, eating with their mouths full of oil. They were the Three Ghosts of the Yellow River.

"Second Brother, it's a coincidence that I came down the mountain today. The momentum of the Mongolian army is really terrifying. I don't think Jizhou can hold out for much longer."

The one who spoke was the fourth brother, Qian Qingjian, known as "The Axe of Death". Although he was eating happily, there was worry on his face.

"If Jizhou is destroyed, I'm afraid we won't be able to live our carefree life of receiving money and food when asked for."

"fool!"

The second in command, Wu Qinglie, the "life-chasing gun", slapped him on the back of the head.

"If Jizhou is lost, at worst we can just go down the mountain and find another city. As long as Master and the Prince don't come back, who in power will not treat us well?"

"The second brother is right. Fourth brother, just eat and drink in peace. Leave the brainwork to your second brother."

When Qian Qingjian heard this, he felt that what his senior brother said made sense, and he felt relieved and took another sip of wine.

"who?!"

The members of the Yellow River Gang were enjoying themselves with food, drink and fun when they suddenly saw a man and a woman appear in front of the camp and walk slowly towards them.

"Kill your Yellow River Gang!"

"Brother, it's that kid surnamed Gu!"

Qian Qingjian had the sharpest eyes. When he saw the person coming, he suddenly stood up with a look of horror on his face.

He had personally witnessed this young master fighting with his own master, and how he cut off one of his master's arms with just a few moves. Now, seeing him again, he was deeply shocked.

Wu Qinglie was also shocked, but he didn't panic: "What are you afraid of? Just two people, and a little girl. We have so many brothers, we can crush them to death!"

"Brothers, grab your weapons! This guy is the mortal enemy who injured our gang leader. Come on, chop him up and avenge our gang leader!"
