Chapter 550: Suppressing Bandits

Li Gang slammed the table and stood up, shouting, "How brave!"

The reason why heroes are heroes is that they have killed many mountain bandits, water bandits, thieves and robbers.

In addition to being known as the Six Gentlemen of Wulin, Li Gang is also a famous hero in the martial arts world. His eyes are as sharp as knives, and he can't stand seeing bandits doing evil in front of him.

Although he is not as good as Lian Chengbi in terms of actual interests, his prestige in the martial arts world is even higher than Lian Chengbi.

There is no other reason, he has been famous for a long time, has made enough moves, has high martial arts skills, and is popular enough!

Hearing that the water bandits in Hongze Lake appeared again, he immediately wanted to go out.

Li Gang wanted to go out, so naturally others couldn't just sit there.

"I'm sorry to disturb Brother Lian's welcoming banquet, but since we have the name of a gentleman, we can't watch innocent people suffer, not to mention that this matter was caused by us. How about we wait until we deal with the water bandits before eating this meal?" Li Gang said to Lian Chengbi.

Lian Chengbi narrowed his eyes and his face became serious, "Brother Li, you underestimate me. Do you think Lian is a hypocrite who puts a meal above the lives of the people?"

Li Gang shook his head seriously, "Of course not, but this is after all a kind gesture from Mr. Duan. Li has to step forward. I apologize for disturbing you."

Duan Hongzhang said hurriedly, "Hero Li and Mr. Lian are both famous gentlemen in the world. They can't tolerate any sand in their eyes. A small banquet can be held at any time. It's more important to eliminate the water bandits."

Wan Chongshan looked at Li Gang and Lian Chengbi, stood up and said, "In this case, let's set off immediately."

Since it has come to this, Lian Chengbi naturally has to participate.

"Several towns are suffering from banditry at the same time, which means that they must have discussed it well, and there are already masters in secret. We must kill them all this time, find their lair, and eliminate them all." Wan Chongshan said.

"In that case, we have to divide our troops into multiple groups. There will always be a group that can catch their main force and chase them to their lair." Wang Xuanfei suggested.

So, Li Gang led one group, Wan Chongshan led another group, Lian Chengbi and his wife led another group, and Duan Hongzhang and Wang Xuanfei led another group. The troops were divided into four groups to eliminate the water bandits.

Li Gang waved his hand and said, "Leave the farthest Siyang to me!"

"Qingjiangpu is not big, but the terrain is complex and the waterways are crisscrossed. Let me and Brother Wang go together." Duan Hongzhang said.

Lian Chengbi smiled and said, "I have heard of Huaiyin's scenic spots for a long time, but I have never seen it. Today I am fortunate to be able to eliminate the bandits for them. It is like paying tribute to Marquis Han after a thousand years."

The remaining Peijia Town is naturally Wan Chongshan's task.

Duan Hongzhang hesitated and said, "The backyard has prepared tea and fruits, and there are also family members. I wonder if Mrs. Lian..."

Shen Bijun smiled slightly, raised her right hand lightly, and a golden needle appeared between her two fingers, shining with a touch of golden light.

"Although I don't like fighting, since it's the water bandits that are causing the trouble, and since I have martial arts skills, I am willing to do my best." Shen Bijun said softly.

"Madam Lian is as brave as a man, I admire you!" Duan Hongzhang gave a thumbs up.

"Pure couple, flying together!" Wang Xuanfei praised repeatedly.

Lian Chengbi found that some lackeys saying good things around him really made people feel good. Unexpectedly, the name of "Pure Couple" was first called out by Wang Xuanfei.

So everyone set off.

There were servants from Duan Hongzhang's mansion leading the way, and some people from the rivers and lakes who stayed in Huai'an City followed everyone in twos and threes, ready to pick on the weak.

When he mentioned it in the future, it would be "I also fought side by side with the six gentlemen of the martial arts world and the swordsman from Xiangyang in Huai'an, and destroyed the water bandits in the 28 villages of Hongze Lake", doesn't it sound very face-saving?

...

Huaiyin County under the jurisdiction of Huai'an Prefecture.

Although this is Han Xin's hometown, it is still just an ordinary county town in Lianghuai. It is just that it has developed better than other places because of the water conservancy of Hongze Lake and the Grand Canal.

As soon as Lian Chengbi and Shen Bijun arrived, the servants of Duan Mansion informed them and pointed out the location of the water bandits.

When facing the water bandits, ordinary people and idle people in the rivers and lakes can only resist and delay time, but as soon as Lian Chengbi and Shen Bijun arrived, they immediately became chickens and pottery dogs.

Seven or eight water bandits died under Lian Chengbi's sword, and seeing several women and children killed by water bandits, even Shen Bijun's eyes turned red, and she personally buried a bloody villain with golden needles.

"Thank you, hero! Thank you, heroine!"

"My daughter, these heroes have avenged you!"

A group of people kowtowed in gratitude, Lian Chengbi and Shen Bijun helped them up one by one. Shen Bijun felt sorry for them and not only confiscated the thank-you gifts they offered, but also gave them the silver money on her body.

This sincere act made the reputation of the Immaculate Couple even more famous.

"Have you found out their lair? And how are they in contact?" Lian Chengbi asked the people who followed him. They also captured several bandits alive and sent them to one side for interrogation.

The people shook his head, "They don't have a lair. They have been hiding in a valley by the lake. There are only so many of them. This time they went out together. It was Wang Zhen's deputy, a man named He Ying, who came to find them."

"Where is He Ying?" Lian Chengbi asked.

"He left after talking to them. They don't know anything." The people shook their heads.

At this time, Liu Daqian led an elderly couple to come hurriedly. As soon as they arrived, the old couple knelt down in front of Lian Chengbi and kowtowed without saying a word.

Lian Chengbi frowned, stretched out his hand and waved it lightly, and the couple stood up involuntarily, unable to kneel down at all.

"If you have something to say, just say it. I will help if I can. If I can't help, I won't help you even if you smash your head." Lian Chengbi said lightly.

"Mr. Lian." Liu Daqian said helplessly, "Their daughter went to Siyang to visit her cousin early this morning. Not long after she left, she encountered bandits here. They are worried about their daughter..."

"Li Gang will kill the bandits in Siyang." Lian Chengbi said, "With Li Gang's martial arts, even Wang Zhen is not his opponent. If their daughter is not dead now, she will not die. If she encountered bandits in advance, it would be too late for me to go now."

Liu Daqian nodded repeatedly, "That's what I told them too!"

Seeing the anxious and worried expressions of the old couple, Shen Bijun pondered for a moment and said to Lian Chengbi, "The bandits in Huaiyin don't know anything anyway. Why don't we go to Siyang to see?"

"Siyang is the farthest from Huai'an. Maybe He Ying is with the bandits in Siyang." Shen Bijun said, "Since we are involved in this matter, let's clean up the mess."

Lian Chengbi raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I didn't expect that Madam has also learned the method of provoking?"

Shen Bijun smiled softly, gentle and shy.
