Chapter 18 Super Cooperation
Chapter 18 Super Cooperation
At this time, Luo Xi had already arrived near the mountain village that the old man mentioned. There was a small forest here. Of course, it could still be considered a forest if only a few leaves had fallen off.
As for why Luo Xi was paying attention to this forest, wasn’t it because there were a lot of people gathered in the forest?
It seems that they are hiding here because their way is blocked by bandits.
Seeing a woman on horseback suddenly running towards Luoxi, everyone was surprised, but they just looked at her twice and then turned around to do their own things.
Luo Xi also just glanced at them, then ran forward quickly.
At this time, a few voices of regret were heard from the crowd: "Ah, it seems that another ignorant young lady is going to fall into their hands."
"Yes, these damned robbers."
The corners of Luo Xi's lips curled up slightly.
Who is responsible for the murder? That is not certain.
There was an experience in which he almost exhausted his supernatural powers while collecting supplies. Now, to Luo Xi, robbers are equal to supplies.
Yes, it’s supplies, no problem!
So, how nice it is to have robbers!
With this in mind, she rode her horse to the bandits' lair...at the foot of the mountain.
Her ignorant behavior stunned the robbers who were waiting for the fat sheep.
"Oh, it's strange, a young lady is so brave, she actually rode a horse alone and ran right under our noses."
Obviously, they also know that they have a bad reputation.
"Not only that, but he's also very handsome. What do you think? Do you want to catch him?"
"Silly boy, how can we not catch him? What's the difference between this and delivering him to our door? If we hand him over to the boss, we can get a reward."
"That's true."
As they talked, several people walked to the middle of the road and then stood still. This meant... they regarded themselves as roadblocks.
Are these people stupid? Seeing this, Luo Xi not only did not slow down, but even deliberately kicked the horse's belly.
The horse under him neighed and ran faster.
Robbers: "..."
They were so scared that they jumped to the side: "Quick, quick, pull the trip rope, don't let her run away."
Damn, I haven’t seen anyone play by the rules so unconventionally in a long time.
Shouldn't you stop if you see someone in the middle of the road?
Luo Xi sighed inwardly, "What a pity!" and stopped precisely in front of the tripwire.
"My dear fellows, why do you want to stop me?"
The robber, who wanted to scold Luo Xi, swallowed his words when he saw her smiling pretty face.
"Young lady, are you alone?" They confirmed it first.
Luo Xi nodded: "Yes, my family went ahead, I will go after them."
He was very cooperative and made up a story.
"Going to the front? It's good to go to the front." The robber's eyes were full of satisfaction: "Young lady, it's almost dark, we want to tell you..."
One of the robbers pointed to a nearby forest shrouded by the last rays of the setting sun: "There is a white-browed tiger with hanging eyes over there. It comes out at night to eat passers-by like you."
"How brutal!" He emphasized: "And you, with your thin arms and legs..."
Luo Xi: "..."
Why does this sound so familiar?
Oh, a classic scene from a TV series before the apocalypse.
"Really? What should we do? There is no inn nearby." Luo Xi's face wrinkled.
The robber was stunned.
How come it is so consistent with the play that the boss taught them to perform? If they really didn't know this young lady, they would have suspected that she was from the same industry as them.
Hi, never mind, let’s just trick it back first.
He continued to act according to the script: "Don't worry, young lady. There is no inn, but our host lives nearby. If you don't mind, you can stay there for one night."
"Just give me some money for tea, it's very cheap."
"Really?" The sadness on Luo Xi's face disappeared, and she said brightly: "Thank you so much, you guys are so nice."
That smile mesmerized the robber so much that his head was dizzy: "Of course, of course."
They walked over hand in hand and helped Luo Xi to hold the reins: "Then we will go over now."
"Okay, thank you for your help, brothers." Luo Xi smiled at them again and handed over the control of the horse to them very obediently.
Now they were even more confused, and with a silly smile they brought Luo Xi directly in front of the boss.
"Master, there is a young lady who wants to stay overnight." The boss almost blurted out a few words.
Inside the room, a rough-looking man was sitting in front of a large table of delicious food, his mouth full of oil. Several pretty girls around him were serving him food and pouring him wine, but their faces were full of fear and reluctance.
The robber suddenly rushed in with Luo Xi and shouted, almost choking him to death: "Asshole, can't you see I'm eating?"
"Throw the captured people into the dungeon! They are becoming more and more lawless." Without even raising his head, he yelled angrily.
"Dungeon?" Luo Xiwang asked the leading bandit in a panic, "Big brother, who are you?"
Seeing that he had been exposed and was in his own territory, the robber stopped pretending and laughed: "Of course we are robbers, don't you see it?"
"But young lady, you won't regret coming back with us this time."
After he finished speaking, he turned to the big boss and said, "Big brother, don't be angry yet. Look, this wife I brought to you this time is so beautiful..."
Before he could finish his words, he was speechless because the boss was no longer eating. Instead, he walked in front of Luo Xi, glanced to the left and right, and made a constant clicking sound.
"Good boy, you are good. Where did you catch him this time? This figure and this little face are beautiful. They are more beautiful than the top girl in Cuihua Tower."
He wanted to take action, but after looking at his greasy claws, he pulled back.
"By the way, have you checked carefully? Is it troublesome?"
Confirm? They were so confused that they couldn't remember this. The robbers scratched their heads.
She's just a delicate little girl, what kind of trouble could there be?
The bandit who was leading Luo Xi's horse patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, I will do the job. There will be absolutely no trouble. She is just an ordinary citizen and her family has already run away."
"That's good, that's good." The big boss was so happy that he waved his hand and said, "Come here, reward Qi Erlang with fifty taels of silver, and the others with ten taels each."
Everyone was delighted: "Thank you, Boss."
The boss is really generous this time, he has never given so much before.
Luo Xi: "..."
Are you being polite by saying this in front of her?
After a while, the silver was distributed to everyone. Qi Erlang felt the heavy touch in his hands and his mouth stretched from ear to ear.
At this time, the boss came over and pulled him into a corner.
"What's wrong, brother?" he asked curiously.
"Hehe!" The boss rubbed his big hands which were still shining with oil, and glanced at the graceful Luo Xi over there intentionally or unintentionally.
"What do you think about me keeping her as your sister-in-law?"
Qi Jilang: "..."
"Don't play dumb." The boss raised his hand and said to him, "I won't hand it over to them. Leave it to me and become my wife!"
