In the famine, she stockpiled space supplies and became a bandit.

Chapter 17: 3 Words and 2 Sentences to Conclude

Soldier:"……"

"You're dreaming. If you really go to jail, you can be punished with a beating, but don't even dream of prison food. You won't even get a last meal after execution."

The county magistrate was so angry.

Luo Xi's face suddenly fell.

This made the two soldiers laugh: "You are really trying too hard for your stuttering, but..."

The two looked at Luo Xi carefully and said, "The hair is wrong, the clothes are wrong, there is no big weird bag, the eyes are small, the lips are too thick, and the face is too thin. It's not!"

The conclusion was reached in just a few words.

Luo Xi: "..."

"Are you sure?"

Is this talking about her or her?

This young lady wanted to go to jail so badly that the soldier was speechless and pushed her out: "Get out, get out, don't interfere with our work."

When he stood a hundred meters outside the city gate again, Luo Xi finally had a new understanding of some things in this world.

She shook her head in amusement and galloped away on her horse.

What she didn't know was that in a house hidden in the deep mountains and forests, a young man dressed in black and wearing a mask was also looking at this portrait.

"This is what I look like?" His voice was cold and emotionless.

Qinglong looked up at the host of the post in front of him, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

The poster has a strong face and sharp eyebrows and eyes. How did he see that he resembled the woman with an egg-face and almond eyes in the painting?

"Host, that's not you, someone is impersonating you," he emphasized.

Jiuxian lowered his eyes and looked at the portrait carefully again.

"Do I look like a woman?" He asked in a different way.

Qinglong: "..."

"Host, that's not you, someone is impersonating you." Qinglong's voice began to become numb.

Jiuxian finally stopped looking at the portrait this time. He raised his eyes and looked down the mountain: "Let's go and take a look!"

Although he didn't say what he was looking at, Qinglong knew that the host was talking about the woman who was so bold as to pretend to be the host of their Red Mansion.

"Yes, landlord."

At this moment, the daring fake owner of the Red Mansion was standing at the fork in two roads, worrying so much that he almost pulled out all his hair.

"Which way is the one that leads to Tongning County? Isn't there a road sign or something? It's so embarrassing."

She wanted to wait for someone to pass by and ask, but two hours had passed and there was still no sign of anyone.

"Forget it, let's eat something first."

Luo Xi took out the pot from the space and cooked some bacon and dried vegetable stewed rice. She had been craving for this for a long time, but she was busy on the road and had no time.

If you add some spiritual spring water, it will be so fragrant.

It tastes good and can repair the cracks on the crystal core, which is the best of both worlds. After these days, drinking a little spiritual spring water every day, the two cracks have now been repaired by one third, and Luo Xi is in a very good mood.

What made her feel better was that just as she finished eating the greasy stewed rice in her bowl, several people came from one of the roads.

"This... old man, may I ask which road to take to Tongning County?"

"...You, you?" Several people were startled and their faces turned pale. They were relieved when they saw that it was a young lady. But when they saw that she was alone, worry appeared on their faces again.

The old man who was questioned by Luo Xi shook his head again and again: "Little girl, you'd better not go to Tongning County, and go back quickly."

Luo Xi was stunned: "Why is this?"

"Ah~" The old man sighed deeply and began to confide in her: "You don't know that the only way to Tongning County is the road we just walked, but..."

"I don't know when a group of bandits came to the hilltop not far ahead. They not only robbed people of their property, but also captured the wives of the bandits. All the young women who looked decent were captured by them."

"Yes, not only them, I heard that there are quite a few bandits ahead, and they all do the same thing. So you see, we have no choice but to go back." An aunt next to her added.

"Oh, the famine was already severe, so I wanted to flee with my family. Now there are so many bandits, what should I do?" She had a worried face and wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes.

"Grandma, don't cry." The skinny baby with a big head in the aunt's arms stretched out her chicken claw-like little hands and clumsily wiped the tears from her face.

"Can we go home? Goudan eats little, and after we get home he will give all his meals to grandma. Goudan doesn't want to leave." His big eyes were full of fear of the unfamiliar environment.

"Hurulu~" But at this moment, the child's stomach began to rumble.

"My dear grandson!" The aunt could no longer hold back and hugged the child tightly in her arms, crying inconsolably.

Other people also stood by and cried silently.

After a long while, the old man calmed down and advised gently: "So my little girl, you'd better not go over there, lest you get kidnapped by those strong men."

"After that, you will have endless hardship, and you may even lose your life."

"Yes, girl." The aunt also said: "We are from the same village, and there are many girls of your age. If you don't mind, you can go with us. It will be safer on the road."

She pointed to the side, where two or three young ladies were looking timidly over here.

"Thank you for your kindness, aunt and uncle." Luo Xi bowed to them: "But I have a reason to go, so..."

Seeing that she looked determined and could walk here alone, the old man stopped trying to persuade her. He just gritted his teeth, reached into his luggage, took out one of the hatchets, and stuffed it into her hand.

"Then you should be more careful."

Luo Xiwang looked at the hatchet with a hole in it in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and finally accepted it.

However, she opened the bag and fiddled with it for a while, fished out a bag, and stuffed it into the old man's hand: "Give the baby something to eat, he... seems to be starving."

The old man didn't want to take it at first, but seeing his grandson swallowing hard, he accepted it with tears in his eyes: "Thank you! Thank you!"

After Luo Xi left, one of the girls asked in confusion: "Dad, we don't have many weapons, why did you give her a knife?"

The old man handed the bag given by Luo Xi to his wife, gently touched his daughter's head, and said with heartache: "When I see her, Dad thinks of your eldest sister. If she had a knife like this in her hand at that time, would she not have been kidnapped by the strong men in Jiuqu Village?"

The young lady paused for a moment, and recalled the women she met a few days ago who escaped from Jiuqu Village. They said that they saw her eldest sister, but... she had hanged herself.

"Dad, you did the right thing," she murmured.

At this moment, the aunt who had just opened the bag let out a scream.

"What's wrong, old woman?" The old man looked over.

The aunt did not reply to him. Instead, she knelt on the ground with a plop and kowtowed heavily in the direction where Luo Xi left: "I wish you a safe journey, good fortune and a long life, kind-hearted young lady!"

The old man was shocked and checked the bag quickly. He saw a few steaming rice balls and a few copper coins in it.

He held the bag tightly with his calloused hands and murmured, "Not all the people in this world are evil."
