Jiang Qi frowned as he watched; in terms of scouting abilities, San Lang was somewhat more skillful than Er Lang. Moreover, San Lang was steady. Originally, he intended to send San Lang.
But when they were lying in ambush, waiting for people at the county government, San Lang said to let Er Lang go, insisting he would perform better than himself.
There were two reasons why Qin San Lang would speak in favor of Qin Er Lang.
First, Qin Er Lang had pleaded with him, saying he needed achievements for promotion and was seeking his help. Second, these river bandits were too ruthless, and he feared for the safety of a few of the families at the edge of the village. With him present, he could offer some protection to those families.
If Er Lang stayed behind, he would not risk his life to protect those families in a truly dangerous situation.
"You stay here and guard; I'm going to see my father. It's time for the old man to step in." Jiang Qi wiped his face and left, crouching down.
