Manbao obviously couldn’t hear anything; she hadn’t heard a single sound so far, so she asked Keke.

Keke: ...

Its original intention was to warn the host, urging them to run quickly to avoid danger from these people. But instead of fleeing, they were going forward.

Manbao, unable to hear Keke’s voice, tilted her head, "Keke?"

Keke could only say, "There are six people running for their lives now, heading towards your left front. If they don’t change direction, they will end up not far in front of you."

"There are a group of eight people chasing them..." Keke expanded the scan area and then said: "There are people fleeing in three other directions as well. There are two people at 12 o’clock direction and 9 o’clock direction, and three people at 7 o’clock direction."

Manbao exclaimed, "So many people?"

Then she asked, "What direction are we?"

"Three o’clock."

"Oh," Manbao always found this confusing and didn’t pay much attention. She preferred referring to directions as in front, back, left, and right. In gardening, it wasn’t bothersome, but now it seemed inconvenient.

Something flashed in Manbao’s mind, but it passed too quickly, and she couldn’t catch that inspiration. After thinking for a moment, she couldn’t remember it, so she told everyone, "Right in front of us, not far away, six people are running towards us, and eight are chasing them."

As for other directions, they sounded far away, even if she wanted to save them, she knew she wouldn’t hear them so far, so she decided to rescue the six people first.

None of Bai Erlang and the others doubted it, thinking she quieted down to listen to movements. They listened carefully and still heard nothing, marveling, "Your ears are amazing?"

Assistant General Nie rode forward, "Lord Zhou, what’s going on?"

During this period, Assistant General Nie had become accustomed to their stopping frequently, thinking they were going to search the mountains for plants again. He generously said, "If the lord wants to enter the mountains, go ahead, take more guards, don’t go too far; we’ll meet in front."

"No, we heard people shouting for help," Manbao said, "someone has encountered bandits; we must save them."

Assistant General Nie immediately turned his head to ask the two constables nearby, "Are there mountain bandits here?"

"Yes, our master has wiped them out four times, twice driving them away, but they returned afterward."

Assistant General Nie immediately frowned, seriously listening, but heard no movement, then looked at the scouts.

The scouts immediately broke away from the team and galloped forward, soon disappearing from their sight.

"The lord’s safety is paramount; since there are bandits, we should retreat from this section first."

Manbao thought for a moment and said, "Right, Teacher is elderly and cannot take risks; have someone escort Teacher and Yin Huo to the back while we go save people."

Assistant General Nie: "Lord, these are mountain bandits, very dangerous."

Manbao said, "I know, if there were more people, I wouldn’t go, but they only have eight people, what’s there to fear?"

They had many people, not counting Daji and the others; Assistant General Nie brought soldiers, and Yin Family’s guards; one knife per person could chop the opponents into minced meat.

Assistant General Nie wanted to ask how she knew there were only eight people?

A scout quickly returned to report: "Assistant General, bandits in the mountains are chasing five or six people towards us, leading is Old Master You."

Manbao exclaimed, "Is it Old Master You? Eh, why is he so slow? Did he also stay in Liangzhou City in the past few days? Why didn’t he come find us?"

Bai Shan said, "Might have been captured early and just escaped now."

He said, "Stop with the nonsense, Lord Nie, kindly move forward to set an ambush to rescue those people, and ensure the eight bandits are all captured, don’t let them escape."

He then added, "We will guard from behind, there’ll be no issues."

Assistant General Nie: "Beware of ambush; what if it’s a ploy to draw us away?"

Keke said faintly, "There’s no ambush, no such ploy, but if you don’t go now, those people will really reach here, and the six of them will be cut down."

Manbao immediately said, "There’s no ambush; hasn’t the scout already probed closely? Lord Nie, they are nearly at the roadside now, if we don’t ambush, it’ll be too late."

The scout couldn’t help but glance at Zhou Man, whispering to Assistant General Nie, "Sir, Lord Zhou is right; we climbed up a tree to check, and soon the people should be running out."

Assistant General Nie made a swift decision, turned back to appoint a team of ten, and took six guards from the Yin Family, "Go, ensure all the bandits are left behind."

"Yes."

He then looked around, decisively waved the rear team to become the front team, retreating to avoid potential bandit ambush.

Fortunately, they hadn’t gone far on the path, and quickly retreated.

Assistant General Nie chose a spot to pause temporarily, separating luggage, with everyone vigilant, if encountering many bandits, ready to abandon luggage and escape.

Knowing there was no ambush, Manbao rode a few steps forward, waited a while with some boredom, "Can’t we go have a look?"

Assistant General Nie refused expressionlessly, "No."

Manbao could only lament, "Alright."

"But there are also six bandits on the road and three innocent civilians being chased; shouldn’t we rescue them?" Manbao pointed to the main road.

Assistant General Nie frowned, "How does Lord Zhou know?"

"I heard people shouting for help."

Assistant General Nie became more cautious, "What if it’s a ploy to draw us away? They could be quietly luring the guards away, then capturing you all at once."

If not for Keke, Manbao would certainly trust Assistant General Nie’s judgment.

Manbao said solemnly, "I heard it, there’s no ambush nearby, Assistant General Nie, trust me."

Assistant General Nie opened his mouth, with Zhou Man hearing from such a distance earlier, disbelief was impossible, but he felt it wasn’t worth risking.

Bai Shan seemed to know his thoughts, sternly said, "Assistant General Nie, not to mention these robbery victims are people we know; even if not, they are also citizens of the Great Jin. As official soldiers, we should protect them; ignoring is fine if unaware, but how can we pretend not to see when encountered?"

Assistant General Nie said coldly, "My duty is to protect Lord Zhou, Lord Zhuang, and the sons. Everything is centered on this."

Bai Shan praised, "This statement is fine, but we are not in danger now, and have the ability to protect ourselves. If we can save, naturally we should; moreover..."

Bai Shan squinted at the mountain road, "Old Master You’s caravan carries many goods, presumably all robbed now. Bandits ambushing here have surely robbed many passing merchants. Who knows how much treasure is hidden in the bandit lair? If we can help Governor Duan eliminate them, it’ll not only clean the road but also solve Liangzhou City’s urgent problem; Assistant General Nie would gain military merit, so why not do it?"

Assistant General Nie’s brows twitched, tempted.
