Chapter 671: Chapter 653: Breaking Through the Mountain_1
Of the four female guards, Su Pan’er left two to protect Little Yanyan.
She herself took two guards and headed straight for the bandit stronghold!
Unexpectedly, Uncle Xiao also followed along with a few well-trained guards.
Seeing this, Su Pan’er quickly yelled, "Uncle Xiao, why did you come too? Quickly return to protect the young lady!"
"Madam, you needn’t worry. I’ve left enough people to watch after the young lady. Before he left, Lord Marquis repeatedly instructed me to stick close and protect you. Please allow me to go along with you. The more people, the better,"
Seeing that Uncle Xiao was determined to go, Su Pan’er, failing to convince him otherwise, decided to bring them along.
"Alright, just follow my command, do not act impulsively. Let’s go."
Uncle Xiao quickly agreed: "Yes, Madame. You can rest assured, I will make sure to keep them in line."
Su Pan’er nodded and said no more, walking briskly to lead the way.
Uncle Xiao was indeed exceptional in his abilities, and whatever tasks that had been given to him these days, he had done his very best. She really didn’t need to worry about him at all.
They proceeded in complete silence, but it was quiet all around with not a single unusual sound. The group split into two, sneaking along the mountain walls on both sides of the valley, approaching the gate of the stronghold without meeting any resistance.
As they drew near, Su Pan’er identified the key problem.
This stronghold was located halfway up the mountainside. There was a path winding up from the valley below, and the mountain’s middle slope was strewn with rolling wood and stones. Not only that, Su Pan’er also sharply spotted a fire tube cannon!
She broke out in cold sweat!
How dangerous it would have been if they had attempted to forcefully pass through during the daytime. By now, they would have been torn apart!
However...
Su Pan’er squinted her eyes. Qin Yi had mentioned that they had been targeted by this fire tube cannon, which was what forced them to surrender. That led to the Emperor’s capture and subsequent hidden injuries, and ultimately to the unexpected death of the Emperor. With this information, she had made enquiries about the fire tube cannon used in this period and found out that although the fire tube cannon had been produced, it was rare in quantity. In many cases, it was used as a deterrent instead of a practical weapon.
But now, to her surprise, there was one in this mountain bandits’ stronghold!
Surprised as she was, Su Pan’er beckoned Uncle Xiao from the other side before suddenly launching an attack on the bandits on the mountainside.
The bandits clearly didn’t realize that a sneak attack was underway. They were yawning indolently, with a few even gathered under a torch playing Pai Jiu, their laughter ringing out.
Using the trees as cover, Su Pan’er, like a loose rabbit, stealthily crawled towards the bandit guards.
She prepared to make her move, but a guard ahead unexpectedly moved!
He was walking while unbuckling his belt, mumbling to himself, "Damn it, they’re enjoying their card game while I have to stand guard here. I can’t even find a moment to take a leak. This isn’t a life..."
As he complained, he walked close to the bushes where Su Pan’er was hidden and prepared to urinate after pulling down his pants.
Su Pan’er, seeing that the situation was unfavorable, quickly picked up a small stone off the ground and forcefully threw it at his anaesthesia point!
The bandit’s actions abruptly paused, and he fell forward out of control, landing before Su Pan’er.
Su Pan’er swiftly caught him, grabbed his chin, and jerked his head up, twisting it!
Crack!
A crisp sound of bone cracking resounded, and the bandit didn’t even get a chance to utter half a word before he was sent to meet Yama.
Su Pan’er quickly dragged him into the bushes. She tore his clothes off and wore them over her own.
"Wang Saner, Wang Saner! Didn’t you say that you were going to take a leak? How come you haven’t returned yet? Are you trying to sneak away? Wang Saner!"
A bandit guarding on the other side of the stronghold yelled.
"I’m coming, I’m coming! I was just taking a shit..."
Wang Saner’s voice came from the bushes, and then Wang Saner came running back.
The bandit chuckled at Wang Saner.
"Look at you, how many times have you had to go today? Are you having an upset stomach? Shall we ask our fourth boss to check on you?"
"No, no need. I feel much better now, much better!"
Wang Saner quickly assured him.
All the while he was mollifying the bandit, Wang Saner was slowly inching closer.
"Fine then! It’s not like it’s a big deal anyway, I think you just have a lazy gut, and that’s why..."
Before the bandit could finish his sentence, Su Pan’er, disguised as Wang Saner, had already reached him. While he was still bickering, Su Pan’er didn’t hesitate to stab her dagger straight through his heart!
The bandit evidently didn’t expect ’Wang Saner’ to suddenly attack him. Overwhelmed by intense pain, he barely registered what was happening before he noticed that something had gone wrong!
He pointed at Su Pan’er, attempting to cry out for help, but the frothing blood in his throat kept bubbling upwards, making it impossible for him to utter a word. The light in his eyes began to fade, and in an instant, he lay still and motionless.
Su Pan’er hurriedly withdrew her dagger and propped him up against the wall. From the back, it just looked like he was attentively watching the situation below.
Su Pan’er swiftly cleaned up the scene and turned towards the group playing cards.
Using Wang Saner’s voice, she reassured, "Don’t worry. My stomach was hurting before, but now it’s better, so there’s no problem."
As she spoke, she quickly went up behind the group playing Pai Jiu.
Feigning curiosity, she elbowed her way in: "Let me just take one look, then I’ll go."
As she began to speak, the people on her left and right unexpectedly stopped talking and stayed silent.
However, su Pan’er stood still and squeezed to the other side, "Oh, why can’t I see the cards inside?" she said, while moving back and forth in the crowd several times.
The bandit acting as the dealer sat in the middle of the crowd with a smile on his face, a piece of loose silver coins already won in front of him.
"Place your bets, place your bets! Hurry up and place your bets, hurry up and place your bets! Bet high, bet low, don’t miss out while you’re passing by! Come and place your bets..."
Although he called out for a while, the bandits, who usually liked to shout out loud, were unusually quiet tonight, all of them standing in place, neither talking nor moving.
The dealer impatiently shouted a few more times, but seeing no response from the crowd, he was furious!
"I’m asking you grandchildren of turtles, didn’t you just clamor to start quickly? Why aren’t you placing your bets now? Gouwa, Zhuzi..."
As he talked, he stood up and reached out to pull one of the bandits in front of him.
Unexpectedly, with his pull, all the bandits, who seemed to be standing upright, collapsed towards him, falling down thump after thump like dumplings. This scared him greatly!
