Crossing the Sword

Chapter 156 Identity Exposed

Bai Yu saw that she had a nightmare again, and immediately rushed over to comfort her. Ye Shisan explained, "Don't be afraid anymore, Lin Bao is dead, no one will hurt you anymore. Don't worry." After saying that, he began to hesitate about how to place the girl.

"Dead?" Bai Yu said in surprise, "Did you kill him? By the way, brother, are you injured?"

Ye Shisan shook his head and said, "I'm fine. But I almost got away from that beast. Fortunately, Ling Fei came quickly and killed him in seconds."

"Seconds?" Bai Yu had obviously never heard of this new word, and he once again displayed the spirit of asking questions without feeling ashamed.

Ye Shisan had no choice but to explain: "Instant kill means... well... to kill the opponent very quickly, basically killing the opponent before the opponent can react, that's considered an instant kill." After a pause, he changed the subject and said: "What about this girl? We can't take her to Taihao Country."

Going to Taihao to participate in the competition, with the speed of Ye Shisan and Bai Yu, there will naturally be no problem. But if you bring this girl with you, the speed will be greatly reduced. After all, flying with a mortal, you must create a layer of protection to prevent damage from the strong wind in the air. Creating such a protection consumes a lot of energy.

Bai Yu also understood this. She sat down beside the bed and asked the girl, "Ping'er, where is your home? How about we take you home?"

The girl also recovered from the nightmare at this time. She stood up, bowed to Ye Shisan and said: "I am Liu Ping'er, thank you for your kindness, young master. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have been... When I was caught by them, those bandits were robbing our village. I don't know if my parents are... " As she spoke, crystal tears flowed again and she choked up in a low voice.

Ye Shisan rubbed his nose helplessly, and after thinking for a moment, he suddenly said, "I have an idea. Let Ling Fei handle it. He is a chivalrous man, and he will definitely not ignore Ping'er's affairs. Let him take Ping'er back to see her. If there is any accident in Ping'er's family, let Ling Fei take her back to Youdu to settle her down. Anyway, let Ling Fei worry about this problem. Haha, am I very cunning?"

Bai Yu rolled his eyes at Ye Shisan and said, "Forget it. I know you are treacherous, so stop bragging about yourself."

"Come on, treacherous is a derogatory word, how can this be considered self-boasting?"

"You're clearly just using this to show off your intelligence. Don't think I don't know!"

"You know that's not okay! You have to have real evidence, time, place, people, parties involved, victims, motives, etc., and the explanation must be reasonable. Only then will I admit that I am bragging."

Liu Ping'er couldn't help but be amused when she saw the brother and sister quarreling.

The two of them were joking around to cheer her up, and now that their goal had been achieved, Bai Yu suggested, "By the way, it's alright anyway, tell me two more stories."

Ye Shisan nodded and said, "Okay, this story is related to the last 'chicken ribs' story. The name of this story is 'One piece of pastry'. Speaking of which..."

As soon as night fell, the bandits rushed down from the south of the mountain in a big way, just as Ye Shisan said. Ling Fei's Five Elements Flag formation immediately took effect. As a camp came into contact with the enemy, the thoughtful soldiers gradually gathered around and soon divided the enemy into countless small groups. In this way, the Five Elements Flag could exert its strongest combat power, while those bandits could not exert their due strength at all. When the number of people on both sides was almost equal, each bandit encountered the attack of more than five Five Elements Flag soldiers at the same time.

The war immediately entered a one-sided trend, but up to now, the two leaders of the enemy have not appeared. In order to speed up the progress of the encirclement and suppression and avoid unnecessary losses, Ling Fei and others all joined the battle. At this time, Song Yi and Wu Sheng had already escaped from the east. When Ling Fei found them, it was too late to catch up.

Although they could not kill the two bandit leaders, the work of suppressing the bandits was still going smoothly. When the sharp-eyed bandits saw the two leaders running away, they realized that their previous words that they would have a chance of survival only if they rushed out desperately were used to trick them into being cannon fodder. After figuring it out, they immediately knelt down and surrendered.

Once someone took the lead, the bandits surrendered one after another, and the entire encirclement and suppression process went extremely smoothly.

When everything was settled, Ye Shisan brought Bai Yu to congratulate Ling Fei and said goodbye. At this time, Tang Yu, the leader of the Jinrui Banner, who had always spoken the least, stepped forward and said, "We are really grateful to Mr. Ye this time. I didn't expect that Ye Shisan is not only an expert in solving cases, but also a master in marching and fighting. I really admire him!" Although he said he admired him, he had already taken out the weapons on his back with his hands, the bright golden double maces, ready to attack at any time.

Ling Fei shouted when he heard this: "Tang Yu! Don't mess around. This time, thanks to Brother Songxi's help, we were able to wipe out the bandits so smoothly. How could you say he was Ye Shisan?"

Tang Yu saluted Ling Fei and said, "General Ling, I am telling the truth." After that, he turned his head and stared at Ye Shisan and said, "The Black Emperor once issued a secret order to spread the news that Zhang Tianya was carrying the "Weak Water Sutra", and I was one of the people responsible for this work. I clearly remember that when I arrived at Tianlongmen, I also saw the gate treasure of Tianlongmen, the Autumn Fan. It is the one in Brother Ye's hand!" After that, the golden mace in his right hand was already pointing at the Autumn Fan in Ye Shisan's hand.

Ye Shisan pretended to be nonchalant and said, "I think General Tang may have misunderstood. Although fans like this are not common in the world, they do exist. Isn't it a bit too arbitrary for you to say that I am Ye Shisan just because of a fan?" He thought that Tang Yu might be deceiving him, so he decided to pretend to deal with it first.

After hearing what Ye Shisan said, Tang Yu shook his head and said, "I wasn't very sure at first, I just had some doubts. But you once said that you were a scholar who was powerless, but in fact, you were able to capture Sun Qing alive under the siege of the other side's four masters. Isn't the gap a bit too big?" Judging from his appearance, he seemed very confident in identifying Ye Shisan's identity.

Ye Shisan closed his fan and said, "We scholars always like to be modest. The phrase 'I can do nothing but lift a chicken' is just a way of being modest. I didn't expect that you, Brother Tang, actually took it seriously. It's a misunderstanding."

"It's not a misunderstanding!" Tang Yu said again firmly.
