Time passed little by little, and soon the sky darkened.

Ruan Xingshu and Jilin avoided the patrolling bandits and came to the house where innocent people were locked up. Ruan Xingshu looked in through the gap and saw five or six people were locked up in the room.

From the old man with gray hair, down to the boy of fifteen or sixteen years old, but there is no woman in this group of people.

After thinking about it for a while, Ruan Xingshu understood that the most scarce thing in the bandits' den was women.Of course, the girl who was snatched had to prepare a separate room for her. How could the bandits be willing to put her in this cold and broken little room, crowded together with so many people.

Ruan Xingshu turned his head and said to Ji Lin who was guarding the wind: "It's here, but the girl who was tied up is not here."

Jilin hummed, and glanced sharply around, just in time to see a bandit carrying food to a room.

The door of that room was still guarded by special personnel, Jilin narrowed his eyes, and the kidnapped girl was probably locked there.

Ruan Xingshu sensed that Jilin's expression was different, and before he could ask, he heard a suppressed cry from inside the room.

Ruan Xingshu looked into the room again, and saw the youngest boy among these people covering his face with his hands and crying: "My master, wife and junior sister are still waiting for me to go home, I haven't married my junior sister yet, I... …I don’t want to die, woo woo woo, I don’t want to die.”

Xu was afraid of attracting the attention of bandits outside the door, the young man's voice was very low, but the more he did this, the more distressed he was.

The boy's cry caused other people in the room to sigh again and again, and two other people also secretly wiped their tears, and the breath of despair spread in the air.

"That's enough, don't cry all day long." A strong man about 30 years old finally couldn't take it anymore, kicked over the stool in front of him, and scolded: "What's the use of crying? Can crying save our lives?" ?”

The man's voice was high-pitched and full of impatience and hostility. The crying teenager shook his shoulders in fright, shrunk his mouth, and cried louder, but this time there was less fear in his crying and more grievance.

Ruan Xingshu noticed that when the man's irritable voice sounded, a small gray figure suddenly jumped from the other side of the room to the top of the cabinet, and squeaked twice.

Ruan Xingshu took a closer look and found that it was a little monkey.

There is still a collar around the monkey's neck, and it looks like it was domesticated.Ruan Xing Shuxin said who are the people locked up in this room?

There was a lot of movement in the room, and with a "bang", the bandit kicked open the door and yelled inside: "What are you doing, be honest, did you hear me?"

There was a sudden silence in the room, the boy was startled by the bandit's sudden yelling, and hiccupped pitifully.

The door was closed, and the room was quiet for a moment, when an old voice rang out: "Okay, kids, stop arguing. It will be the old man's turn tomorrow, and I will try my best to delay the time. If you can find someone to get out The method is to escape from here smoothly, and remember to set up a monument for the old man when the time comes, and burn some paper money for me during the holidays."

The hiccupping boy said with a strong nasal voice, "Grandpa, you will be fine, let's escape from here together."

The old man waved his hand with a wry smile, walked aside and sat down.

The old man was quite close to Ruan Xingshu, so Ruan Xingshu picked up a piece of gravel and threw it at the old man's feet.

The old man raised his head, and when he saw Ruan Xingshu outside through the gap, his eyes widened: "You..."

Ruan Xingshu hissed, and said in a low voice: "Don't be afraid, old man, we are not bad people, we are here to save you."

The old man came closer, knelt down and said, "You?"

"Yes, us." Ruan Xingshu grinned, "My name is Ruan Xing, this is my younger brother Ruan Ji, come on, younger brother, I have met the old man."

Jilin couldn't help complaining that Ruan Xingshu gave him a name, but he still walked up to the old man in the house and said, "Old man."

The old man could see clearly through the gap, and his eyes couldn't help but brighten up.

Ruan Xingshu and Ji Linsheng are handsome, and Ruan Xingshu always has a smile on his face, making them even more trustworthy.

The old man immediately let go of his doubts, and said excitedly: "You two little brothers, are you immortals?"

Ruan Xingshu said: "No, we are just rangers, and we have learned some martial arts since we were young. Today, when we traveled here, we found bandits making trouble on the mountain, so we came up."

Ruan Xingshu didn't want to reveal his true identity, Jilin could understand.

The mist in Yushan was weird, their spiritual power was sealed, and all they could use was their fists and kicks.

Because of the demons, ordinary people have two completely opposite attitudes towards the people in the fairy gate.

One is blind trust. These people think that the people in Xianmen are omnipotent. As long as they are by their side, any danger and difficulty can be resolved; the other is extreme disgust. His incompetence made the demons so arrogant.Right now, no matter what kind it is, it is not suitable. It is better to say that it is an ordinary person who practices martial arts.

The other detainees in the room quickly noticed the movement on the old man's side and all looked over.

After learning about Ruan Xingshu and Jilin's intentions, the tall and strong man who yelled at the young man just now said: "There are many bandits here. Seeing how young you are, you'd better go back quickly, and don't risk your own life."

Just now, this person was irritable and furious because of his unknown fate, but now that salvation is close at hand, he still cares about the safety of others.

Ruan Xingshu smiled and said, "Brother, don't worry, we will take care to protect ourselves, and nothing will happen."

He turned to the old man again: "Old man, you just said that it will be your turn tomorrow. What do you mean by that? And why are these bandits arresting you?"

Since ancient times, mountain bandits have blocked roads and robbed for money and sex, but the people imprisoned in this room, judging from their clothes, are all ordinary people.

The old man sighed: "It's like this—"

The old man briefly explained the matter. It turned out that the bandit leader on this mountain was idle and wanted to find someone to relieve his boredom, so he arrested a group of talented people.

If the captured people could not satisfy the bandit leader, they would be dug and buried alive by the bandits.

Hearing this, Ruan Xingshu frowned: "There is such a thing."

He thought that the group of bandits arrested these people should be to make the woman happy, but it is unforgivable for Bojia to do such a thing with a smile.

The old man said: "None of those who were pulled out came back alive. Tomorrow it will be the old man's turn. Fortunately, you came in time."

Ruan Xingshu said: "Old man, you have also seen that this Yushan Mountain is covered with thick fog, and only this bandit den can see things clearly. When we first came here, we are no more familiar with the environment of Yushan Mountain than they are."

After a pause, Ruan Xingshu said in a negotiating tone: "We need to plan the route, and I would like to ask you to delay the time. I haven't asked the old man what do you do?"

"I rely on storytelling for a living." The old man was a little embarrassed after he finished speaking: "I also want to delay time for you, but the bandit leader has a weird temper, and he is not satisfied no matter what. To tell you the truth, before you come Several storytellers have already been dealt with by them. The storytelling abilities of those people are all higher than mine, so I am really worried..."

"Storytelling..." Ruan Xingshu rolled his eyes and smiled soothingly, "Don't worry, old man, you just need to retell the story I told you."

"This story happened a long time ago. There is a place called Cloud and Mist Continent. There is a legend on this continent..."

Ruan Xingshu crossed his legs, sat on the ground casually, and said in his mouth: "This legend is a person, and this person is Yu Sitang's big shopkeeper Ruan, Lin, Lin..."

Hearing the three words "Ruan Linlin", Ji Lin who was standing straight at the side slanted his eyes, and happened to meet Ruan Xingshu's playful gaze from bottom to top.

At this time, it was inconvenient for Ji Lin to argue with Ruan Xingshu, so he could only give Ruan Xingshu a warning look.

Then Jilin cast his gaze elsewhere, listening to Ruan Xingshu's random story while pricking up his ears, while paying vigilant attention to the movements of the bandits around him.

The author has something to say: In Chapter 45, the old man told Jilin that he was not dead thanks to meeting them. At that time, he brought out an extra word "hungry" when he hit him, which has been changed.
