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

Over there, Zhu Da was sitting in the carriage humming a little tune, and his anger was no longer visible.

"Sir, are you really... planning to make that bandit your advisor?" the butler asked in confusion.

The official and the bandit are enemies, and if he were to be taken in, it would surely be criticized.

"I'm not stupid. How can a robber want to work in the government?" Zhu Da's tone was full of contempt: "I was planning to kill him on the way, but I didn't expect that he was lucky enough not to follow me."

"It's good this way. I don't have to dirty my hands, but it's a pity to waste the food and fodder."

"The drought is so severe now, and I feel uneasy without food."

The housekeeper pondered for a moment and said, "That guy may not give up so easily. If he comes to the county government office with food in a few days, then..."

"You're here just in time." County Magistrate Zhu Da smiled and said, "I can get a lot of things for free again."

He is looking forward to it.

"When we get the things, we can find a fault and chase him away or kill him, and that'll be it."

"Your Excellency is wise." The butler's eyes lit up and he kept flattering him.

Zhu Da was flattered by the compliment, but after a while he frowned again: "I just don't know what the hell this Jiuxian is up to. Why did he come to my jurisdiction and massacre a small village?"

"Sir, the people in the Red Mansion are like crazy. They do whatever they want on a whim. As long as he doesn't kill civilians and dignitaries, he is just a bunch of bandits. If they die, they die." The butler said indifferently.

"What I'm curious about is, is Jiuxian really a woman? Why does it feel a little off?"

Zhu Da is not really sure about this: "So far, no one has seen Jiuxian's true face. Who knows if he is a man or a woman?"

"Alright, forget about her. As long as she doesn't come to provoke me, I won't bother to provoke such an evil spirit."

What he didn't know was that the evil spirit he was talking about had already arrived at the gate of the county town before him.

This, is this really the gate of an ancient county town? Luo Xi was stunned. How could it be the same as the gate of the apocalyptic base?

Over there, I saw groups of skinny and pale people sitting or squatting casually in the open space outside the city wall. They were all in tattered clothes, with miserable faces and no light in their eyes, just like walking corpses.

Some of them were not even wearing any clothes, just a pair of tattered pants, lying casually on the sand by the roadside, so thin that only a layer of skin and bones were left.

If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of his chest, he would have looked no different from a person who had starved to death.

Luo Xi felt a little depressed for a moment.

"Why is it so difficult to see a normal world? There are natural disasters and man-made tragedies everywhere." She sighed.

But this is not the end. After waiting in line for a long time, when it was finally her turn, Luo Xi asked: "What did you say? The entrance fee is 500 coins per person?"

The gatekeeper looked impatient: "Yes, do you want to come in or not? If not, get out of here and don't delay my business."

The tone was the same as that of the bandits in Jiuquzhai.

Luo Xi took a deep breath and said, "Brother Cha, how much is a bun now?"

Could it be that prices were quite high in this dynasty?

Seeing Luo Xi's good attitude, the soldier didn't mind telling her: "Before, the vegetarian buns were one cent each, but now, hey, ten cents each."

"So, don't think we collected a lot. Once we enter the city, we can survive."

"If you stay outside, you might be taken away by wolves before you know it, or be robbed and killed by bandits or refugees."

Luo Xi: "Since you know this, why don't you just do nothing about it?"

"We are in charge." The soldier looked arrogant and said lightly, "All they have to do is enter the city."

Luo Xi: "..."

He just threw the coin in his hand to him and left.

If you stay any longer, you will be pissed to death.

After entering the city, Luo Xi went straight to the county government office, then hid in a tree at the door, waiting for Zhu Da, the fat sheep.

The entrance fee is so expensive, just like an open bandit. Luo Xi doesn't mind helping him collect his ill-gotten gains.

After a while, Zhu Da came in in a good mood: "Quick, move all the things to my warehouse, be careful not to damage them."

He remembered that there were quite a few antiques inside.

"Yes, my lord!"

Luo Xi quickly hid his figure and followed Zhu Da to the warehouse.

My goodness, a house of about 100 square meters is almost half full.

Not to mention the gold, silver and copper bars, there are also numerous jewellery, as well as swords, cloth, inkstones, calligraphy and paintings, all good things.

This is too good of a way to make money.

After the yamen runners had moved everything, there was a lot less empty space in the warehouse.

"Everyone, get out, get out, and guard outside. No one is allowed to come in without my order." Zhu Da drove everyone away, closed the door, and began to happily admire his treasure by himself.

"Oh my, not bad, not bad. I didn't expect that there would be so many good things among these bandits. This gold is so shiny, and this jade pendant feels so good. If I had known this, someone would have reported it to me a few days ago, and I would have sent troops to suppress them directly."

"Oh, this is actually from the previous dynasty?" He picked up an inkstone and looked at it left and right in fascination.

So you know about the evil deeds done by Jiuqu Village. Luo Xi narrowed his eyes and waved his hand, and the space opened instantly. The inkstone that Zhu Da had just seen disappeared.

Juda: "......!!!!!!"

What happened? Why is it gone?

Left hand, no!

Right hand, no!

What's the matter?

He turned his hands over and over, looked at them again and again, and rubbed his eyes, afraid that he was just dazzled, but when he opened them again... still nothing.

I rubbed it again and opened it again, but it was still... empty!

"This is impossible? How is this possible?"

He began to look everywhere, and even took a candle to light it up, for fear that he had missed anything, but after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find the inkstone.

Could it be a human being?

"Who, who is doing this, come out here?" Zhu Da shouted, then listened attentively.

But apart from his own echo, there was complete silence all around, without even the sound of wind.

Luo Xi just sat on the chair, quietly admiring him like an ant on the hot pan.

"Sir, are you calling me your subordinate?" After a while, a bailiff outside asked.

"Did anyone approach the warehouse just now?" Zhu Da shouted angrily.

The yamen runner was startled: "No sir, we have been guarding outside as you ordered, and no one has come in."

This was strange. Zhu Da almost pulled his goatee bald. Unconvinced, he picked up the famous painting beside him. But before he opened it, it disappeared again.

"..."

This, this, no, could it be that something dirty has entered the warehouse?

Zhu Da swallowed hard, took out the Buddhist beads from his arms with trembling hands, and held it in front of himself.

"I, I'm telling you, this has been placed in front of the Buddha for 49 days and has absorbed enough of the Buddha's energy. If you don't leave, I will throw it away and scare you to death."

But... it would have been better if he hadn't said that. As soon as he said that, the treasures started to disappear one by one with him as the center. Soon even the Buddhist beads in his hand met with a tragic disaster.

Zhu Da's eyes widened as the treasure disappeared, and finally he couldn't hold it anymore: "Someone, come quickly, there's a ghost! There's a ghost!"

He used his weak legs to rush out of the warehouse like a fly: "Quick, quick, there is a ghost inside, catch him for me."
