Xu Lai's troops were still intact, but Su Ya's spearmen were in urgent need of rest. Just last night, the two wooden buildings were occupied by shooters. Xu Lai immediately announced that he would lead the team home.

Back in the village, the scouts had returned. Even with the physical strength of the fourth-level scouts, they could not run very far at a time even for one-way reconnaissance.

Xu Lai just glanced at the northwest map presented by the scout and took the scout back to the master bedroom.

There was nothing in the master bedroom, except for an inconspicuous little crystal where Xu Lai placed the Abel crystal.

This was Xu Lai's deliberate attempt last night. He didn't carry the Amber Crystal with him all the time. He just put it in his bedroom and came back to sleep before 12 o'clock.

Facts have proved that as long as the Aibo Crystal can sense Xu Lai's heroic magnetic field at the time of 12 o'clock, a rare crystal resource can be successfully born.

Coupled with the 8 units of sulfur recovered this time, Xu Lai already has a lot of rare resources on hand.

But those have nothing to do with this scout. Xu Lai didn't bring him to the master bedroom to let him rest in his own house. If he really wanted to let him rest, he would have to be sent to the main room.

Xu Lai doesn't have any mysophobia, but unless he has no choice, he should not let other men interfere with his sleeping place.

The master bedroom had a cabinet, a table, chairs and a bench, but there was no clothes in the cabinet. In the drawer of the table, there was a stack of papers, all of which were maps drawn by the scout for him.

Xu Lai took out all these papers and gave the scout a large map collected from the horse thieves prisoners.

As soon as the horse thief arrived in his village, Xu Lai stripped him clean. If it weren't for the fact that Su Ya was there, Xu Lai would never even leave him a pair of underwear.

Although this horse thief didn't have much fighting ability, he had more gold coins in his wallet than the dead one.

The two of them paid a total of two hundred gold coins to Xu Lai, and the prisoner contributed a full hundred gold coins.

You know, when he was in Gram Village, Xu Lai bought two draft horses for 30 gold coins. With Xu Lai's connections and shamelessness, it was possible for 100 gold coins to buy two prairie horses.

It would be impossible for an ordinary herdsman to have such strength to carry 100 pieces of cash. It is probably not the first time this guy has committed a crime as a horse thief.

So Xu Lai was not polite. After he was kidnapped, he asked Su Ya to make arrangements to hang the guy up and wake him up first.

"Can you put these small maps into this big map?"

Since the scouts have the ability to draw maps, it shouldn't be a problem to put together the maps they draw.

Sure enough, the scout nodded and actually drew on the big map in front of Xu Lai.

However, Xu Lai also discovered that although there was no problem with what the scout had drawn, none of the roads and locations marked by Xu Lai himself on the small map, as well as the various marks he used to remind himself, were drawn on the big map.

Sighing, after all, he is not a normal person, and Xu Lai is not too demanding.

Anyway, the small map is still there, and he recognizes all the things he drew himself. At most, he will process it after it is completed.

Leaving the scouts to draw here, Xu Lai washed his face and came to the central square of the village that he had reserved.

Here, Su Ya had already asked a farmer to temporarily nail a wooden cross in accordance with Xu Lai's request, and the horse thief was firmly tied to the wooden cross.

With Xu Lai's arrival, a large basin of cold water was poured directly on the horse thief's face.

"Are you awake?"

The horse thief swallowed, not knowing whether to admit or deny, so he simply begged for mercy again:

"Sir, please spare my life. We were all coerced and forced to attack you."

Xu Lai became interested, narrowed his eyes, motioned to Su Ya to get him a bench and said:

"You said "you" were forced, then there must be "someone" who can force you!"

In one sentence, Xu Lai left two accents, falling on two key words, you and people.

However, the horse thief was an uneducated person and did not hear it at all. He still answered the question "honestly":

"Yes, yes. After a few of us escaped from the village, we defected to Yin Andy, the leader of the horse thieves in this area. It was he who forced us to come out to rob."

Xu Lai snorted coldly and said: "You said he forced you to come out to rob, but why didn't I see him? Could it be that he could command you remotely, or did he ask you to attack us?"

After thinking for a moment, the horse thief replied: "Although the others did not follow us, those monsters are all his.

The real robbers were the monsters under him, and Love and I were both coerced. "

Xu Lai shook his head. At this point, this guy is still shirking responsibility.

Can Xu Lai not know what the wild monster looks like?

It's not that wild monsters can't follow orders to patrol and guard, but they have the ability to go so far. They need the controller to plan a patrol route for them.

Even if it is a witch under Xu Lai, if she is asked to search, Xu Lai must go out personally, otherwise she can only patrol on a fixed route. Even if Xu Lai goes out personally, she must find the end point of the patrol within her field of vision.

Even if those horse thieves, like the scouts, have the characteristics of independent expeditions, and Xu Lai and the others happened to enter the robbery range of the horse thieves, the wild monsters would never retreat until their morale collapsed.

Therefore, in every sense of the word, this guy is lying.

If Xu Lai himself was behind these horse thieves, then he would definitely not trust these horse thieves to go out alone to perform tasks.

If you happen to have living people in your hands, no matter how capable these living people are, you will still give command to the living people.

Xu Lai didn't understand the command system of this world, but he could assign his soldiers to Su Ya, who was a general.

In fact, the final ownership of those people in Su Ya's hands still belongs to Xu Lai, otherwise Xu Lai would not be able to order those farmers.

However, before Xu Lai takes back the command, they will give priority to executing Su Ya's orders.

After a moment of silence, Xu Lai shook his head, stood up slowly and said to Su Ya:

"I leave this man to you, so feel free to beat him until he is willing to tell the truth."

After coming to this world, Xu Lai's heart has really hardened a lot. If it were before, he would have ignored such people at most, but it would be difficult for him to be so cruel as to engage in torture to extract confessions.

But now, although he still can't do it, he actually doesn't have much trouble in his heart. He just wants to give himself a step up and not do it himself.

In front of Xu Lai, Su Ya has always been a gentle woman.

At first, Xu Lai gave this task to Su Ya and was worried that she wouldn't be able to do it.

But Xu Lai soon realized that he was overthinking. Su Ya was just being gentle to him. She was not polite to the horse thief who took the initiative to attack Xu Lai.
