Chapter 199 The Cool and Quiet Frontier Pass (for subscription)

Perhaps they wanted to establish a good relationship with Chen Yuan, the patrol angel. After all, they had just had a friendly cooperation before, and Chen Yuan's authority just happened to be able to help him.

Otherwise, it would be difficult to leave Qingzhou alive because of the noise he made by accepting dozens of riders.

Maybe Yan Kai just wanted to thank Chen Yuan. With the strength Chen Yuan showed before, it would not be difficult to win him.

Yan Kai also turned off his intention to fight Chen Yuan.

Looking at the rough man in front of him, Chen Yuan paused for a moment on his black beard. His appearance was somewhat similar to that of Li Kui in the Romance. The atmosphere between the two parties stagnated for a moment, and Chen Yuan took the lead in asking:

"Why didn't the Yanzhai master come here instead of fleeing?"

Yan Kai: "I'm here this time to ask for Chen's help."

His face was very solemn.

"How to help?"

Chen Yuan signaled Yan Kai to sit down, made a cup of tea for him, and looked directly at Yan Kai with a calm expression.

From the moment he let him go, Chen Yuan was 50% sure that he would come back instead of just leaving.

Without his help, Yan Kai would not be able to escape the endless pursuit of the Sky Surveyor, and he gave Yan Kai a meaningful look at that time.

The meaning contained in that look can be understood as long as Yan Kai is not stupid.

Then, as expected, he came.

Yan Kai took a deep breath and whispered:

"As long as Inspector Chen doesn't count me among the fugitives after returning to Fucheng, the Sky Surveyor will not take action. As for the others, Yan is confident that he can escape."

"Then are you fugitives?"

Chen Yuan didn't agree, nor did he directly refute, but asked a rhetorical question.

Yan Kai hesitated, and did not admit it immediately, and Chen Yuan did not urge him, but drank the tea on the table by himself.

"Yes!"

After a long time, Yan Kai nodded.

"Tell me about your history."

Yan Kai glanced at Chen Yuan, not knowing what he was planning, but since he admitted it now, there was nothing to keep hiding, and he said something briefly.

He joined the army when he was young, and grew up on the border of Youzhou. He served as a lieutenant in one of the armies. After that, he had no choice but to hide and fled all the way to Qingshui County.

I wanted to stay here for the rest of my life, but it was a pity that the imperial court had zero tolerance for deserters and rebels like them, and would not give them a way out.

"How is the situation on the Liangyou border?"

Chen Yuan has always wanted to know the situation on the border of the northern barbarians and the strength of the Jin Dynasty. In Yan Kai's narration, Chen Yuan also learned about the border situation far away from the Central Plains from a new entry point.

Millions of Chen Bing, evil spells, tens of thousands of people will fight at every turn, the lives of both sides are cut off like straws, the border blood is closed, blood scabs are finger-thick, and bones are spread on the ground.

These are the border gates that Yan Kai briefly described. The strength of the imperial court on the border could not overwhelm the northern barbarians, so they could only support it with all their strength. It was a fluke that Yan Kai could survive for more than ten years.

The northern barbarians are not monsters, but people who are just like them, but their beliefs are different, and they covet the Central Plains incomparably, trying to burn the flames of war to the Central Plains.

After a long time, Chen Yuan rubbed his frowning brows, realizing that the current situation of the imperial court is indeed not optimistic, and Chen Bing on the border has involved a large part of his strength.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that the power of the world is now as arrogant as it is now, and can even provoke the court

The strength of the imperial court is not weak, even very strong, but the strength is too scattered, and the forces in the rivers and lakes are equally strong. In this world where the strong are respected, only the top strong can be considered to control the world.

Comparing the two sides, Chen Yuan felt that the forces of the Jianghu were better.

After the narration, Yan Kai set his eyes on Chen Yuan, preparing to wait for his reply, with a little hope in his eyes.

"I helped you, what's the benefit of this enablement?"

After a long time, Chen Yuan came back to his senses, and put his eyes on Yan Kai again.

The major events in the world are still a bit too far away for him now, so it's better to manage the things in front of him.

"As long as Yan can satisfy what Inspector Chen wants, he will not refuse." Yan Kai sat upright with a serious expression on his face.

Staring at Yan Kai for a while, Chen Yuan smiled:

"You have nothing worthy of my covetousness. Do something for me. I can try my best to erase your identity as a fugitive."

The rights of the patrol angels are not small, and it is not difficult to erase the identity of a fugitive. As long as someone does not make trouble, very few people will pay attention to it.

"Thank you, Patrol Officer Chen, what's the matter?" Yan Kai clapped his hands gratefully and asked.

"Do you know there is a Chiyang Mountain in Qingshui County?"

"Know."

"You go and take people to rob and make a lot of noise. After that, you will have nothing to do, just leave." Chen Yuan warned.

Yan Kai nodded, although he didn't know what Chen Yuan's purpose was, but as long as he helped him erase some traces in the Sky Survey Division, he immediately agreed, and after chatting for a while, he offered to leave.

Chen Yuan did not persuade him to stay, but continued to focus on his practice.

The next day.

Chen Yuan didn't leave the inn until noon, and Sun Yuan, who asked someone to monitor him, was a little confused. Could it be that he was thinking too much?

Shouldn’t

But Chen Yuan didn't show any abnormal behavior at all. Of course, the more this happened, the happier Sun Yuan was. He wished that Chen Yuan would leave quickly, but he hadn't waited for him to completely relax.

A piece of news directly caused him to drop his glass.

The bandits who escaped before attacked Chiyang Mountain brazenly, fought on it for a while, took some Chiyang stones by force, and then continued to flee. The Qi receiving warrior guarding the mine of Chiyang Mountain didn't even have time to fight Yan Kai.

Although the speed is very fast, the commotion is very loud.

Chen Yuan, who had been prepared for a long time, went directly to the county magistrate Sun Yuan and Zhang Hefeng, and told them that since there was news about the bandits, it was impossible to sit still, and he wanted to investigate Chiyang Mountain carefully.

These words made Zhang Hefeng look at him thoughtfully. Those bandits attacked Chiyang Mountain just after fleeing yesterday, but Chen Yuan also asked about the situation of Chiyang Mountain.

It is completely impossible to say that there is no connection between them.

But there is a question in front of him, is there any collusion between Chen Yuan and Yan Kai?

Thinking about it carefully, if this is the case, it seems that there is no need to suppress the bandits before, which makes him quite puzzled.

Can't explain it or not, Zhang Hefeng has great confidence to conclude that the relationship between Chen Yuan and Yan Kai is definitely not that clean.

Chen Yuan didn't care about Zhang Hefeng's eyes at all, just glanced at him, and then focused on Sun Yuan.

Compared to Zhang Hefeng's silence, Sun Yuan seemed a little excited.

While admonishing Chen Yuan that Chiyang Mountain is not important now, what is important is the bandits. The most important thing for Chen Yuan now is to lead people to pursue them immediately, instead of placing his hope on Chiyang Mountain.

On the other side, it was faintly revealed that the Chiyang Mountain Mine was related to a certain important figure in Nanling Mansion, making Chen Yuan turn a blind eye.

However, Chen Yuan refused to enter, and pretended not to understand anything. The angry Sun Yuan cursed in his heart, but he didn't dare to show it on his face, lest Chen Yuan cut him off on impulse.

Can only accumulate anger in my heart.

After notifying Sun Yuan, Chen Yuan led his people to go to Chiyang Mountain immediately. Before leaving, he saw Sun Yuan's ashen expression.

The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, but Chen Yuan didn't care.

Chiyang in Qingshui County is located in the east of the county, and the distance from the county seat is about the same as that of Dagu Mountain, but the speed Chen Yuan uses has been reduced by more than half.

This time, there were not many people brought by Chen Yuan to Chiyang Mountain, only Mo Donghe and the other three sky patrolling guards. As for the arrests in the county government, Chen Yuan felt that they were in the way, so he did not order them to go.

Zhang Hefeng was also so happy. He would rather sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight than meddle in it. Therefore, even if he guessed that Chen Yuan had some relationship with Yan Kai's gang of bandits, he didn't reveal it to Sun Yuan at all.

This time, he was the one who contributed to the flames.

If it was possible, he even hoped that Chen Yuan would take Sun Yuan directly, and he could take advantage of this opportunity to gather forces and completely control the Qingshui county government before the next county magistrate came.

If you can gain a firm foothold in a county, it doesn't matter whether you climb up or not.

It is also good to control a county and be a local emperor.

Chen Yuan didn't pay attention to the twists and turns, he thought about it but he wasn't interested in it, as long as he got the Xuanyang Shenjing, he didn't have much strength this time, just to find a legitimate reason for himself .

In any case, he is also a member of the court and not a bandit without scruples. Before he acts, he must occupy his own reasons. Like now, is it wrong for him to track down the bandits?

Who can say no?

When I arrived at Chiyang Mountain, the mine was in full swing, and the skinny people walked down the mountain carrying frames of gravel with their arms bare.

Looking at it roughly, there are almost a hundred people, and his scale is not small.

More than a dozen supervisors with whips, if they see anyone who is lazy, they will whip them up.

There was a little blood on the ground, which was obviously caused by Yan Kai and others in the morning.

"Who is in charge on the mountain, tell him to come and see me!"

A pebble broke the right arm of the overseer who was whipping before, and his tone was cold.

The man was helped up by someone, and just about to scold him, but seeing Chen Yuan's indifferent eyes, he felt a little fearful, subconsciously nodded and told the people next to him to call the adult in charge.

Chen Yuan waited quietly for a moment, opened his Fayan, and looked at the mine ahead, but there was no blue light shining as expected, he thought it should be because of the distance between them.

Not long after, a middle-aged man dressed in black was surrounded by a dozen people and walked up to him. The absentee from work also stopped, looking at the scene in whispers.

"I don't know the name of this lord, why did you break into my Chiyang Mountain Mine." The middle-aged man set his sights on Chen Yuan as soon as he came up.

"You don't need to know this, as long as you know that this envoy is here to investigate the traces of the bandits who made trouble at noon."
