Chapter 28 Celebration Banquet
Zhang Yong and Zhu Ye, who had received Liu He's eye signals in advance, quickly picked up their weapons and surrounded the three bandits who looked puzzled.

Liu He turned around and looked at Yang Niu, with a look of anger on his face.

"Your Majesty, we have tried to persuade you with kind words and have even given you the precious jade, so why do you allow your men to bully me?"

Yang Niu was totally confused. He looked at Zhang Yu who was almost crying out of fear, and then looked at the three extremely angry teenagers. Most importantly, he saw the jade pendant that Zhu Ye had snatched back from him. Although he could not see the appearance and texture of the jade pendant clearly, he still believed Liu He's words a little more in his heart.

"You useless idiot, you can't even hold on for a moment!"

Yang Niu felt that his subordinate had not touched a woman for a long time, so he couldn't help but reach out to tease the girl, which caused her to be so angry.

"My lord, I don't have any..."

The bandit looked wronged, but he had his back to others just now, and was blocked on both sides by Liu He and Zhang Yong. In this situation, who would believe him and suspect the frightened nine-year-old girl?

"Okay, that's useless! I can do it myself!"

Yang Niu cursed angrily and walked over with a big knife.

Seeing this, the three bandits immediately rushed forward and cried to Yang Niu, saying that they were wronged. They also advised Yang Niu that these kids were too cunning and it would be more convenient to kill them all at once.

But Yang Niu only has eyes for the jade pendant. If he can get the precious jade and avoid the risk of offending the government, why not do it?

Looking at Yang Niu approaching step by step, Liu He and the others would be lying if they said they were not nervous. Especially Zhang Yong and Zhu Ye, who were still a little unclear about Liu He's plan. They gripped their weapons tightly, their palms sweating.

Finally, Yang Niu walked up to the few people and spread out one hand.

"Okay, my subordinates are ignorant, please don't blame me, just give me the jade pendant."

Zhu Ye looked at Liu He, and when he saw Liu He nodded, he handed the jade pendant to Yang Niu.

Yang Niu grabbed the jade pendant, feeling delighted, and examined it carefully in front of his eyes. However, he was a rough man after all, and could not figure out what it meant for a moment.

At this moment, Liu He suddenly shouted: "Yang Niu, the evil villain, die!"

Following this order, Liu He, Zhang Yong and Zhu Ye, who had been angry for a long time, simultaneously raised their weapons and attacked Yang Niu.

Yang Niu was really frightened by the sudden shout. Just when he was about to ask the young man how he knew his name, he saw a spear, a big axe and a pair of hammers swinging towards him at the same time.

"Oh my god!" Yang Niu hastily raised his sword to block.

But his martial arts strength is only 63 points. How can he withstand the simultaneous attack of three people in such a hurry?
As soon as he blocked Zhang Yong's axe, he felt a pain in his arms. Before he could wonder why this young man had such great arm strength, Liu He's spear had already pierced his chest and Zhu Ye's double hammers also hit his body. The double hammers weighing more than 100 pounds plus Zhu Ye's angry blow, with a force of hundreds of pounds, directly knocked Yang Niu away.

"You...you guys..." After saying only three words, Yang Niu's head tilted and he died.

"Dead villain, give me your life!"

The three men attacked at the same time and killed the three frightened bandits.

Once Yang Niu and the three bandits were dead, the remaining bandits immediately fell into chaos.

"The leader is dead, it's all over!"

"How could these three young men be so powerful? They are even more powerful than the leader!" "The gods have come down to earth. They must have come down to punish us. I admit my fault. I know my crime..."

"It's too dangerous here, let's run!"

A group of bandits, some ran away, some knelt down and admitted their mistakes.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and grab your weapons to stop them and surround them! If you let them run away, what if they come back to take revenge later?"

Liu He shouted at the many villagers.

The villagers immediately came to their senses from their surprise. Some took hoes, some lifted stones, and two or three villagers dealt with one bandit. They quickly drove most of the terrified bandits back to their original place and surrounded them. Only a dozen or so who were quick on their feet ran into the mountains.

“Have mercy, have mercy…”

"We were forced into this situation, please don't kill us..."

A group of bandits who were showing off their might just now were now kneeling on the ground, kowtowing and begging for mercy. All this was thanks to Liu He and his four teenage boys. This made the adults of the Liu and Zhang families feel proud!
At this time, Zhu Ye's father also rushed over with his servants. After listening to his son's exaggerated account of the events, he couldn't help but give his son a thumbs up. He was extremely satisfied with this "big brother" his son recognized who was two years younger than him.

Seeing the head of the Zhu family coming, everyone bowed to them.

Zhu Ye's father walked up to Liu He and others, looked them up and down, and nodded repeatedly.

"Young and promising, my son really did not follow the wrong person! He is so brave and resourceful at such a young age, his future achievements will surely be limitless!"

After being praised by their elders, Liu He and Zhang Yong felt a little embarrassed.

"Oh, Uncle Zhu, there are sixty-two bandits in total. We don't know how to settle them now. I'll have to trouble you to find a way to deal with them."

Liu He said with a cupped hand.

It was definitely impossible to keep these bandits in the village. Who could leave such a hidden danger in the village? Letting them go was even more impossible. Everyone was also afraid that they would come back for revenge in the future, so they could only leave it to the Zhu family to find a solution.

Mr. Zhu stroked his beard, thought for a while, and then he came up with an idea.

"Well, although my Zhu family is no longer an official, we still have some connections. Let's put it this way, I will inform the current county lieutenant, Lord Wu, about these bandits and gangsters, and give him this credit for free. But don't worry, this credit will not be for nothing. I will let Lord Wu prepare a generous gift."

Liu He didn't have much hope for this generous gift, he just wanted to resolve the matter perfectly.

"Thank you very much, Uncle Zhu!"

"You're welcome. From a public perspective, you have protected the country and the people this time. From a private perspective, my martial arts, knowledge, and personality have all improved greatly since I followed you. I should thank you. I will hold a banquet at my mansion tonight to celebrate your contributions today. My dear nephew, please come."

Mr. Zhu had long wanted to get to know his son's elder brother. Now that there was such a good opportunity, it was justified to propose a celebration of his success. Zhu Ye also encouraged him.

Seeing this, Liu He couldn't refuse, so he bowed and agreed.

Afterwards, Master Zhu and Liu Qian exchanged some words of congratulations and compliments until the county lieutenant, Lord Wu, arrived with his troops and escorted the 62 bandits back to the county town. Then everyone said goodbye.
