<h4>Chapter 398: Kill Without Blinking</h4>
The first wife of this Master Xie was the real master of the bandit mountain stronghold.
It was also because she had taken a liking to Master Xie’s might that he was chosen as her husband. Later on, his first wife and father-inw passed away, so he naturally inherited the mountain stronghold. Only then could he bring the bandits to war!
Although this bandit was not a good person, he was a man of his words. How many innocent people were spared from suffering since Master Xie beat the barbarians?
Many people remembered this bit of merit.
As for the family members of these bandits…
It was said that they had not contacted each other for many years. After Master Xie became an official, they began to connect with each other.
There was also Young Lady Xie. She had been raised outside since she was young and cultivated in a Taoist temple. Earlier, she had done so many good deeds outside the city. How could such a person be like what this olddy had said and want to kill her?
“Old Madam, if a grandmother like you views her granddaughter in such a way, wouldn’t everyone else think that your granddaughter hasmitted a great sin?” Someone could not help but sigh.
“She has alwaysmitted a great sin. Look at my legs! Also, she urged her father to be on bad terms with her brother!” The olddy quickly added.
When she said that, everyoneughed.
“You fell yourself, didn’t you? Some people saw it. Besides, if your son is on bad terms with his brother, isn’t it your fault as his mother? How could you me it on your granddaughter? This junior shouldn’t bear this crime, right?” Someone could not help but mutter.
When the olddy heard that, she was upset.
“You guys don’t know that her mother, Ms. Peng, was a real bandit. She used to kill without blinking! If it weren’t for her mother, my son wouldn’t have been kidnapped to the mountain stronghold back then. He wouldn’t have been a bandit for so long? We mother and son wouldn’t have been estranged!” The olddy was afraid that others would not understand, so she immediately turned her head and exined properly to everyone.
“That Ms. Peng was born with a big and burly body. Her personality was violent, and she suppressed my son until he couldn’t breathe. Shemitted too many sins, and that’s why she died early. Otherwise, even if my son wanted to beat the barbarians, I’m afraid he wouldn’t be able to!
“I’m sure you guys can’t imagine what that Ms. Peng looked like? Let’s put it this way, my eldest grandson should be very simr to Ms. Peng,” the olddy thought for a moment and added.
Xie Pinggang oftene to this pharmacy.
He had to investigate cases and travel around on a daily basis. He also had to frequently buy some medicine.
Back then, when he was an official, he rode his horse through the city gates. Along the way, themoners crowded around and watched. They all had a deep impression of him.
If a woman looked like Young Master Xie, then it was indeed…
It was quite scary.
“Young Master Xie only solved a case about a year ago. In that big case, more than a hundred innocent women died. He offended the princess’ husband’s family. This kind of bravery is not something that an ordinary person can do. Old Madam, we don’t know exactly what Ms. Peng that you speak of was like, but if you think about it carefully… if she was that bad, I’m afraid she wouldn’t have given birth to such a brave, resolute, and righteous son.
“Besides… isn’t the old madam thinking too lightly of a bandit mountain stronghold?”
The person who spoke was a schr. He was standing in line.
With a serious expression, he said, “There are so many people in the bandit mountain stronghold. If they are all cunning people whomitted crimes, Master Xie shouldn’t be able to drive them away.
“I think that before Master Xie became the head of the bandits, the mountain stronghold had already set some rules. From the looks of it, the contribution of Ms. Peng should be greater than Master Xie’s.”
After the schr finished speaking, he nodded to himself.
