"Are you bandits?" Lin Chengqi's alert voice sounded outside the carriage.

"What's wrong with the bandits? You're not just a piece of fish on a sticky plate, waiting to be slaughtered by me."

The bandit's tone became arrogant and anxious.

Zhao Yang could not let Lin Chengqi face a group of bandits alone outside.

She quickly got out of the carriage.

The bandit saw a woman getting out of the car, and she didn't look like an ordinary woman. He was surprised by the woman's courage and started to tease her.

"Hey, there's a little lady in this carriage."

Zhao Yang was not angry, but came to Lin Chengqi's side.

Seeing her getting out of the car, Lin Chengqi became anxious and quickly protected her behind him, fearing that the bandits would try to get her idea.

If these bandits wanted money, that would be fine, but if they wanted people...he knew how much he weighed. If they really wanted people, he might not be able to defeat them.

He thought for a moment, gritted his teeth, turned his head, and whispered to Zhao Yang: "I'll hold them back later, and you drive them away quickly."

Although the bandit didn't hear what he said, he could guess something from his expression.

"Don't worry, what we want most is money. Unless you don't pay, we won't kill you."

"As long as you hand over the money, I won't consider letting you go." The leading bandit looked at Zhao Yang and didn't seem to be interested in her.

Zhao Yang breathed a sigh of relief. As long as no one's life was harmed, there was still the possibility of negotiation.

But she couldn't hand over all the money.

She walked out from behind Lin Chengqi and said to them: "I want to have a good talk with you."

These bandits don't seem to be the type to kill innocent people indiscriminately. It would be better if they could be explained.

"What are you talking about? Either pay the money or sell you for money!"

The leading bandit had no intention of talking, so he took out the long knife from his waist with a fierce look on his face.

This is completely non-negotiable.

Lin Chengqi also made a fighting stance.

It's just that although he can put some effort into it, he hasn't mastered it yet.

There is only one man, Lin Chengqi, here. To deal with so many people is simply nonsense.

Zhao Yang's head turned rapidly, his eyes falling on the bandit's face.

There was no murderous intent in their eyes, nor did they look like they would kill someone just for a little money, so there was no need to worry too much.

She gave Lin Chengqi a look, indicating that he didn't need to fight with him.

Seeing that they had no intention of resisting, the leading bandit leader spat, "It's good to know people's faces. Sir, I like people who know their faces."

"Take them all back!"

"Wait!" The bandit leader looked at the carriage again and said to his subordinates, "There must be someone else in this carriage. Call all the people inside."

The people in the carriage, including the two sleeping children, were driven out and stood in a row.

"Sure enough, we are a family. Let me tell you, this guy and you don't look like a couple." The leading bandit looked at the few people.

"Take all the money they have, not even a copper penny less."

Several bandits stepped forward and plundered all the silver they had on them.

"The child also has some small pieces of silver in his pocket. It seems that he belongs to a wealthy family."

The bandit leader looked at the broken silver that had been collected. It amounted to twenty taels of silver, and his eyes widened in surprise.

You only have so much money on you, how much do you have to hide?

Zhao Yang saw the greed in the bandit's eyes and was glad that he had collected the reward given by the fourth prince into the space before setting off.

That's gold. A little bit of silver can surprise them like this. If they see gold, why don't they blackmail them?

Even if it was just looted, it would still cost a lot.

Except for the broken silver, the carriage and its contents were not let go, they were all pulled away.

Immediately afterwards, several people were escorted into the village by bandits.

The village is so big that it looks like an independent village.There were a lot of people, but the current gaze made Zhao Yang feel a little uncomfortable.The men, women, and children looked at them appraisingly.

Zhao Yang could only ignore their gazes, and she looked at the surrounding scenery.

The surrounding flowers, plants and trees are full of vitality, just like a paradise.

Since the place here looked so beautiful, she suddenly felt that perhaps these bandits did not intend to steal people's money, but maybe they had no choice but to do so?

After all, it is not convenient to apply for a job here, especially for women.

Several people were escorted into a room.

There was also a guard standing at the door, so it was really inconvenient to escape now.

Lin Chengqi originally planned to block it himself and let them find a chance to escape.

These bandits have already taken a lot of money from them, so they can't do anything to him anymore.

Unexpectedly, there were so many guards, so he immediately stopped thinking.

There were people around the house, and besides, they were not familiar with this place, and it was difficult to escape.

But the doors and windows were open, as if they were specially left open for them to avoid being bored in the house.

Although they were brought here by force, they were not missing a bite of food three times a day.

While eating, Lin Buyan wondered: "Didn't they rob us of our money? They even brought us here so fiercely, but the food didn't miss us either, and it was very punctual. Are these bandits good or not?" evil?"

Zhao Yang has already changed his view on the bandits, "I don't understand. Even though they are robbing money, they still have a kind heart, right? At least they are not so heartless that they don't give us food."

Not only that, there are even shredded pork in this meal, but they are so thin that you can hardly find them.

"This is confusing." Lin Chengqi also shook his head.

"We can't stay here any longer." Zhao Yang walked back and forth in the room after finishing his meal.

When she found the opportunity, she approached the door and wanted to talk to the guard.

When the guard saw that she was about to come out, he immediately yelled, "Go back."

Zhao Yang did not go back, but stayed where he was, "I just wanted to come out for some air. I stayed in the house and was just anxious."

"Afraid? Why are you anxious?" The guard was aroused by her words.

Zhao Yang sighed, "I have something urgent to go to the capital. I was delayed for several days. Now I am locked up here. Aren't I anxious?"

"So that's it." The guard didn't ask any more questions.

Zhao Yang saw that he had no intention of talking anymore, so he could only find his own words.

"By the way, I'm confused. If you arrest people in your village so openly, aren't you afraid of being caught by the government?"

"This village has not been discovered by the government yet. We have lived here for a long time and no outsiders have discovered it yet."
