In fact, Bai Shan suspected that those bandits were not real bandits, or that they were only bandits targeting Xiaoliu Village;
Otherwise, those bandits could hide so tightly that the county government didn't hear any news, which means that there are powerful forces behind them to support them. , and he didn't think that the talents of Yilu county magistrate would not be discovered for so many years.
So Bai Shan still has to go to the nearby village to find out the situation.
The next day, Bai Shan spent half a day painting the rest of the portraits. In fact, there were not many people who saw their faces, only five. Except for two people from the village who remembered them deeply, the other three were all portraits. Putting it back on shortly after being ripped off.
They themselves are not very sure whether the drawn person is right, they speak very vaguely.
But talk is better than nothing.
Zhou Man and Wen Tiandong also finished reading the people who came to seek medical treatment, and after making sure that they wrote down that they could go to the medical office for medical treatment if they were sick, they left with Bai Shan.
The people in the village sent Bai Shan to the foot of the mountain very anxiously.
Bai Shan reassured the village chief, "I have reserved some people for you. County Captain Dong has also returned to the county to dispatch troops. They should be there in a few days. If those bandits come again, you don't have to be afraid. You can give them whatever they want." What are they?"
He said: "Saving your life is the most important thing. When I catch people, everything they robbed will be returned to you."
"this… "
The villagers hesitated.
Bai Shan smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, this county will do what it says, no matter how bad it is, I will pay you for the loss, and this county still has some money. The main thing is that people have to live, and people can have everything only if they live."
Regardless of whether the villagers listened to it or not, anyway, Bai Shan left them a yamen servant and a guard, which were actually for credit, and they cannot be expected to fight against the legendary hundred bandits.
After crossing the mountain, the servants waiting on the mountainside saw them and ran up immediately, "My lord, you have finally come out, we are about to be eaten by mosquitoes."
Then Bai Shan remembered that they brought horses, maybe the wild beasts would not provoke them, but the mosquitoes must like them very much.
He said apologetically, "I forgot to leave some mosquito repellent herbs for you."
Man Bao said: "There are a lot of wormwood on the road. After lighting a fire at night and burning it, the smoke can smoke mosquitoes. You must learn to use local materials in the future."
A group of people led their horses down the mountain, stood at the intersection and looked around, Bai Shan summoned a yamen servant and asked, "We are going to find Chief Jia, where should we go?"
The yamen servant was dumbfounded, "I don't know about the lowly position."
Bai Shan: "I remember that it was written in the file that Xiaoliu Village and Xiaojing Village in Dajing Village are under the same jurisdiction as Chief Jia Li. How can Dajing Village go?"
The yamen servant who was asked swallowed his saliva, "My lord, I don't know how to get to Dajing Village."
Seeing Bai Shan looking at him silently, he immediately explained: "My lord, there are fixed people who go to the countryside every year to collect taxes and rations. One person is in charge of one side, and the humble one is in charge of the Longchi area. I'm not familiar with this side. .”
This time Bai Shan went down the mountain not to the beach, but to the inland side of Laizhou. There are many mountains and narrow roads here, and few people come here. This is the first time a government servant has come here, so he really doesn’t know the way. ah.
Bai Shan then turned his head to look behind, and asked, "Who knows the way?"
It was the same yamen servant who bit the bullet and said: "My lord, Lao Chen and Lao Sun who know the road here, one you sent him and Dong Xianwei back to the county town, and the other you stayed in the mountains..."
Man Bao couldn't hold back, and burst out laughing with a "puchi" from behind.
Bai Shan's face burned slightly, and he gave her a dark look. In the end, he had no choice but to look back and forth at the road in front of him, one south and one north, and he simply pulled Man Bao up, "Choose one."
Man Bao was taken aback, "I choose?"
Bai Shan nodded, "You are lucky."
Man Bao rolled his eyes and said, "If I make a wrong choice, don't blame me."
Bai Shan: "I don't blame you." Anyway, they have horses, and if they make a mistake, they will turn around, and he wanted to visit all the villages in this area, so no matter where the next village is, he can accept it.
Man Bao asked Keke in his mind, "Do you know where Dajing Village is?"
Keke said depressedly: "I don't know."
It doesn't have a detailed map of the world, how could it know
"Then tell me, is there more stuff that can be dug on the upper road, or the lower road?"
Keke chose the above path for her without hesitation, and at the same time began to beep, "Host, detected that there are plants and animals that can be recorded at a distance of 988 meters from you..."
Man Bao pointed to the upper left, and said to Bai Shan in a serious manner: "I think it's this way."
Bai Shan then waved his hand, "Come on, let's take a look from here first."
So a group of people got on their horses, Man Bao stopped the horse and Bai Shan said after running for a while, "You take Wen Tiandong first, I will go into the mountains to dig some flowers and plants, if there is a village in front of you, you can send someone back and tell me, if not No, come back to me, let's change our way."
This road is not an official road, it is small and bad, and there are many detours. The grass on both sides can reach people's knees. It is very disturbing to look at, so no one knows if there is really a village in front of it. If there is no one, it must be back.
Bai Shan knew that she was probably going to dig things for his young father-in-law, so he nodded, leaving her with many guards and yamen servants, and also left her a fortune, "There are bandits in the mountains, be careful."
Man Bao said pointedly: "The bandits are not sure if they are in the mountains, don't worry, I will be careful."
Man Bao and Ke Ke said: "Did you hear that, we have to be careful, if you find bandits, you must tell me in advance."
Keke agreed, as long as the host can record things for it, it is willing to help if it does not exceed the scope of authority.
When scanning creatures, it's a trivial matter for him to judge whether there are such creatures as bandits in the mountains.
Wen Tiandong didn't quite understand, "Sir, you can buy medicinal materials from drug dealers, and we won't be able to harvest much by collecting herbs alone."
Man Bao said: "My purpose is not to gather herbs to make medicinal materials, I just want to see what they look like, that's all, I can't tell for a while, you and Bai County Magistrate go first, we will talk later this topic."
Wen Tiandong had no choice but to leave with Bai Shan first.
Man Bao got off the horse, led the horse slightly inside and found the plant that Ke Ke said, the animal had already run away.
It turned out to be a medicinal herb, vine-like, winding up the trees next to it, and it was all in the past.
Man Bao clicked his tongue twice, although he hadn't seen it alive, but he had seen it sliced and dried.
Man Bao cut a section of vine and smelled it, and asked Keke in his mind, "Is it Ding Gong vine?"
Keke compared it and said: "Theoretically yes, this plant has never been included in the plant encyclopedia, so it can be included."
Man Bao took out the scissors from the back basket, picked out the old vines and started cutting...
