Chapter 315 Explanation
Shen Nian came to the leader of Fufeng Village who was placed on the ground by the guards and looked at his face carefully.
Although the leader of Fufeng Village was beaten black and blue, the black mole between his eyebrows and the scar behind his ear on his chin were still very obvious.
There is a portrait of Yuan Lei, the leader of Fufeng Village, in the archives of the government office. The painting skills at that time were not very sophisticated, and the portrait was quite different from the real person, but there was no problem in recording some obvious features.
Therefore, after seeing the man's face clearly, Shen Nian was more convinced that he was the leader of Fufeng Village. He stretched out his hand, intending to touch the black mole between the man's eyebrows and the obvious scar, to see if he was in disguise.
The captain had been following Shen Nian closely since he left the house. When he saw the governor reaching out to touch the unknown man, he was startled and hurriedly took two steps forward and said in time: "Sir, let your subordinates come down. Be careful of fraud."
The team leader spoke the last four words in a very low voice. Shen Nian paused with his hand half extended. He hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded to the team leader, withdrew his hand, stood up and took two steps back.
After receiving the governor's approval, the team leader immediately stepped forward and squatted down, reaching out his hand to feel the face of the leader of Fufeng Village for a while, then stood up and reported: "Sir, there is no sign of fraud on this person's face. The man on the roof gave his subordinates a bottle of antidote. Do you want to wake him up and question him carefully?"
"Being not."
"Yes." His proposal was rejected. The team leader said nothing more. He decisively put the antidote in his arms and continued to stand beside Shen Nian on guard.
Shen Nian looked up at Ping An and smiled at him. "My dear little brother, I have heard your conversation just now. I have just checked the appearance of this person. Although this person is quite similar to the image in the portrait, there is a gap between the portrait and the real person. In addition, I have never seen the owner of Fufeng Village in person, so I cannot determine his true identity."
Shen Nian said this, and suddenly changed the subject: "But brother, you traveled all night and took the trouble to send this person to the backyard of the government office and handed him over to me. I think it is not without purpose, so I believe that this person's identity is true."
"It's just that this matter sounds a little unbelievable. If you don't mind, why don't you come down and tell me in detail how you two brothers and sisters took over the entire Floating Wind Village, where is your sister now, what is the current situation of the bandits in the Floating Wind Village, and what are the captives you mentioned."
"Only when I understand all these things clearly can I arrange the follow-up matters more appropriately. Little brother, do you think this makes sense?"
After practicing light skills all the way, the slight smell lingering on Ping An's body had long been blown away by the wind, but Ping An had not yet gotten over it. At this moment, he did not want to have close contact with the prefect and others, so he decisively ignored the prefect's suggestion that he go down for a detailed discussion.
But from the prefect's perspective, he brought people to break into his mansion in the middle of the night and asked him to take people up the mountain to catch bandits. No matter how he thought about it, he felt that there was something wrong with this matter.
If he doesn't explain things clearly, the other party might not believe it, and if they don't believe it, they won't act rashly. Then wouldn't his trip here be in vain?
It wouldn't matter if he made a wasted trip, but it would be bad if he delayed the girl's arrangements and made her doubt his ability to do things.
After analyzing the pros and cons in his mind, Ping An decided to follow the governor's request and briefly describe the process of the two of them causing trouble.
"Sir Governor, I understand your concerns. This does sound like a fantasy, but it's actually not complicated. My sister and I are good at martial arts. We climbed the mountain quietly and used our martial arts to sneak into Floating Wind Village. We used some tricks on the people in the village and made everyone in Floating Wind Village infected with the sleeping potion specially prepared by my sister."
"The sleeping potion took effect very quickly. After a few seconds, everyone fell asleep. We easily took over the entire Fufeng Village without using any force."
"I see." Shen Nian nodded in understanding. If that was the case, then it wouldn't be surprising. He said it was impossible for someone to fight one hundred people alone. Wait! Something seemed wrong.
Shen Nian pointed at the swollen face of the leader of Fufeng Village and asked, "Since you and your sister didn't use force, what's the matter with the wound on his face?"
"These injuries were not inflicted by us, but by the people they captured and took to the mountains to work as laborers. Each of them was chained by the bandits, and their clothes and appearance were different from those of the bandits. My brother and I knew they were not bandits, so we gave them the antidote and cut off the chains that were locking them, and asked them to help tie up the bandits with hemp ropes. However, they had a deep hatred for the bandits in Fufeng Village, so when they kidnapped people, it was inevitable that some personal grudges were mixed in."
"The leader of Fufeng Village is the most powerful person in Fufeng Village. He rarely shows up in public, so not many people recognize his identity. The degree of beating was not serious, but many people's vital organs were kicked to pieces. If the two of us hadn't stopped them, they would have died on the spot."
As soon as Ping An said this, everyone present, including the elderly Shen Nian, subconsciously put their legs together and swallowed their saliva secretly. How great a hatred must one have to have to use a kick that could cut off the progeny of another person?
Just when they were about to sympathize with those bandits, they realized that something was wrong. They were bandits, what could they not do?
To be specially taken care of by the lower three groups, they must have done something worse than beasts, which made them think of many bad things all of a sudden, and everyone's face looked unhappy.
"In order to prevent those people from doing anything extreme, my sister knocked them down again. The effect of the sleeping potion is only twelve hours. Everyone's resistance to the drug is different, so the time of awakening is also uncertain. I carried people all the way here using Qinggong just to inform you earlier so that you can go up the mountain as soon as possible to take those bandits away."
The governor immediately grasped the key point of Ping An's words, "From what you said, little brother, none of the bandits in Fufeng Village died?"
"That's right. After all, we are all law-abiding citizens of Da Chu. We would never do something like killing people."
Ping An paused after he finished speaking, considering the possibility of an accident, and then added: "Well, I mean that they are not dead now, but if you go too late, those who are more seriously injured may think that their wounds are infected and something unexpected happens and they will not survive. I can't guarantee it."
