After she became a county magistrate, she took the ghost to investigate the case

Chapter 377 Something happened

"Don't worry too much. When we get back, I'll arrange for someone to find a way to get you home. There's strength in numbers!"

Xu Yingying nodded without saying anything more, which was considered as her agreement.

She knew that she couldn't blame anyone else for this kind of thing, which meant that the opportunity from Abbot Huiming was not hers.

Li Siqi was in a good mood. His identity had been exposed, so he didn't need to hide anything when he returned to the capital. He specially arranged a very luxurious carriage with all kinds of food and drinks.

The journey certainly won't be too boring. They encountered a lot of trouble on the way here, so it will naturally be more comfortable on the way back.

However, Li Siqi did not consider whether doing so would be a bit too ostentatious.

So many carriages gathered together, and looking very luxurious from the outside, naturally aroused the improper thoughts of many thieves.

A group of bandits from Wushan targeted them, and their leader Scar decided to rob the caravan immediately.

"Boss, these people look very difficult to deal with. Are you sure we want to attack them directly? What if we attract the imperial court's troops? This will not be a good thing for us."

The men were a little worried, but Scar didn't take it to heart at all.

"What are you afraid of? With so many of us brothers rushing over, we can just chop them into pieces and then walk away without anyone knowing it was us."

"After you finish this job, you will have no worries about food and drink for the rest of your life. Can you resist such temptation?"

Faced with Scar's question, most people's eyes lit up. Yes, they could not resist this kind of temptation. It was like a beautiful woman taking off all her clothes, standing in front of them and posing.

Even though there is a possibility of death if they rush forward, there are still many people who want to give it a try.

"Then listen to the boss and do it directly."

Having made the decision, everyone no longer hesitated and set up an ambush on the road that the carriage had to take. As long as the carriage passed, they could rush straight down.

Li Siqi and Xu Yingying were completely unaware of this.

Li Siqi was still too confident. In fact, most people in the martial arts world would not consider so much when doing things.

They only do things that are beneficial to themselves, and their courage should never be underestimated at any time.

When the carriage passed Wushan, a group of people rushed towards them. The sound of horse hooves soon startled the two people in the carriage.

"No, there is an ambush here."

Li Siqi's face changed drastically, and he quickly pulled Xu Yingying up and rushed out of the carriage.

Seeing the huge crowd ahead, Li Siqi made a quick decision that they must fight their way out as soon as possible, otherwise if they were surrounded, the two of them would be in great danger.

Xu Yingying was also ready to fight. At this point, she could only fight her way out.

"How brave! They even dare to attack me. I want to see if they are really brave enough."

Li Siqi held the sword in his hand, without any fear in his eyes.

As soon as he finished speaking, the two of them rushed out hand in hand, one in front and one behind, and instantly chopped down several bandits who were rushing towards them.

Their speed was so fast that they didn't give the other party any chance to react. By the time they could see clearly that there were people in front of them, the long swords in the hands of the two men had already cut their necks.

"This is a tricky idea, be careful with it."

Scar noticed this scene very quickly. According to his original idea, he had more people on his side and could control the situation in an instant.

Nothing was quite as he had imagined.

The guards that Li Siqi brought with him were all very powerful. They, a group of bandits, were nothing more than chickens and dogs in front of these guards and were quickly torn apart.

When they wanted to achieve the siege, they found it was impossible.

This made Scar furious. How could he just watch the fat sheep in front of him escape so easily?

"Brothers, they are trying to run away. Follow me and charge forward. We must not let them get away. Whether you can enjoy a good life for the rest of your life depends on today."

Scar rushed to the front. With him in the lead, the other bandits behind him regained some courage and rushed forward closely behind him.

However, there is still a big gap between the bandits and the regular army. When they charge, they look very imposing, but in fact they are very messy and have no rules at all. Their formation can be easily broken.

Li Siqi took the lead and, with a few guards, split the enemy into two from the side. In this way, they could cut off the heads and tails of them and defeat them one by one.

In less than half an hour, there were only a few people Scar brought with him left, and by the time he realized this, it was too late.

"withdraw!"

Scar had no choice but to arrange a retreat.

There was no way Li Siqi would let the other party leave, so he immediately led his men to surround him.

"Come as you like, leave as you like. Do you think this is your home?"

Needless to say, the result was that the bandits were completely wiped out and not a single one was left alive. Although there were some twists and turns in the whole process, the result did not disappoint everyone.

When they left, the ground was in a mess with corpses everywhere.

The news spread quickly. Before Scar, many people had their eyes on this luxurious carriage, but after learning about this, many people were frightened and did not dare to step forward.

They didn't encounter any other troubles afterwards, and the group rushed to the nearby Jun County without stopping, where they took a short rest.

"Yingying, let's rest here for a night and replenish some supplies. It won't be too late to cook after we adjust ourselves."

"You make the decision. I have no opinion."

The carriage arranged by Li Siqi was very comfortable, completely different from when they came here. Although they were in a hurry, Xu Yingying felt more like she was on a picnic.

Lying in bed at night, Xu Yingying thought carefully about the conversation between herself and Abbot Huiming.

If she wants to go home, she has to resolve the fate of this life. In other words, if she wants to leave successfully, she has to obey Li Siqi's wishes. The key is that Li Siqi's wishes conflict with his own wishes.

If you want to leave, you have to pay a price.

"Anyway, I am a transmigrated soul. There is nothing to lose by helping Li Siqi resolve his feelings. This will satisfy both parties. In this way, I can also leave."

Finally, Xu Yingying sat up from the bed and thought that this method might really work.

But on second thought, this was her first time dealing with such a thing after all. Although they were very familiar with each other, she was still more or less embarrassed.

That night, Xu Yingying's room was brightly lit.

Li Siqi also couldn't fall asleep. His mind was full of Xu Yingying's appearance. Even if he closed his eyes, he couldn't sleep for long. Sometimes he would have nightmares and wake up suddenly.

It was not until the second half of the night that someone suddenly knocked on Li Siqi's door.

"Your Majesty, something happened in the capital."
