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

Li Jin took a long time to find his voice. He said in a daze: "Sir, have you drunk too much?"

Otherwise, why would he talk about joining a gang of bandits?

He is the county magistrate.

Rong Bai did not answer him, but murmured, "Uncle Li, have the magistrates of other counties already started handing in able-bodied men for labor service?"

Li Jin was very worried when he saw that he looked like he had lost his soul, but he still said honestly: "Yes, almost all of them have been handed over. They were all... captured by force."

"Sir, we..."

"Stop talking." Rong Bai raised his hand to interrupt his next words and laughed, "Heh," "We can't catch many now even if we want to."

"Why is this?" Li Jin looked confused.

Although there were many people fleeing famine in Tongning County, there were still enough able-bodied men to serve as laborers.

"Because..." After a day of silence, Rong Bai's mood was no longer so turbulent. He told Li Jin in a calm tone what he saw and heard in the villa today.

Including the matter of the village head taking the lead in becoming bandits, and including Luo Xi's magical seeds.

"I dare say that if we dare to arrest people, those people who are still hesitating will immediately turn to Chaoyang Villa. By then, it will not be as simple as not being able to capture able-bodied men."

"Our Rong family may become a fat sheep in a wolf's den, and Du Hong will not care about our life or death, and may even add insult to injury."

"How could this happen?" After hearing this, Li Jin was completely stunned and couldn't believe it for a long time.

"But, but no matter how good Chaoyang Villa is, it is still a bandit group. How could they, how could they..."

It doesn't make sense that some people would not be good citizens but instead rush to become bandits.

"Ha..." Rong Bai laughed sarcastically: "Uncle Li, you forgot one thing."

"In the hearts of ordinary people, whoever can feed and clothe them is a good person, and the opposite is true and unforgivable."

"As for who will be the emperor, and what their own identities are, do you think it is important when facing hunger, life and death?"

Although Li Jin felt that this was outrageous, he could not refute it.

Yes, my life is almost gone, who cares whether I become a bandit or not.

"But there is no need for us, the Rong family, to wade into this muddy water."

"Uncle Li, do you think we have any choice now?" Rong Bai looked at him: "Unless we move out of Nanyue County, but think about it, will Du Hong let the big fat sheep of my Rong family run away so easily?"

"In that case." Rong Bai fell on the chair and laughed roguely: "Why don't we follow the crowd and become bandits and go against Du Hong completely."

"By then, wow, Du Hong's expression will definitely be very interesting."

But he didn't have the chance to see it, what a pity.

Li Jin: "..."

Is there anyone who just follows the crowd?

"Sir, how about we think about it again?" He always felt that it was too hasty. Once they became bandits, there would be no turning back.

And Luo Xi, can she really succeed? If she is a villain and sells out the Rong family, then...

"Don't think about it." At this time, a middle-aged man who looked 70% like Rong Bai walked in.

"Master!" Li Jin bowed respectfully, then asked with wide eyes: "Do you also think that my husband's idea is feasible?"

Every time Master Rong was present, he preferred to call him Rong Bai Langjun.

Mr. Rong was thin, dressed gorgeously, and had the shrewdness that always characterizes a businessman in his eyes.

He walked quickly to the opposite side of Rong Bai, sat down, and said: "If it was a month ago, I would definitely not agree, but now..."

He took out a note from his arms and handed it to Li Jin.

Li Jin took it suspiciously, opened it and was immediately shocked.

It only said: Pirates from the south have invaded the border again, and the Tianshen Sect in the north has revolted in Anjiang County.

This is... the world is in chaos!

"Master, when did this happen? And what is the Celestial God Cult?"

If he remembered correctly, the pirates were repelled by the imperial court at the end of last year.

Speaking of the Celestial God Religion, Master Rong's expression was very interesting: "Ha, the Celestial God Religion. I heard that their leader, Su Tang, is the Jade Emperor from heaven who came down to earth to save the people of the world."

"The Jade Emperor descended to earth?" Rong Bai's face suddenly became strange, his jaw almost dropped to the ground: "Hahaha, then I am the reincarnation of Tathagata?"

"You little brat, your father is still here. Whose father are you? Speak properly." Master Rong glared at him.

Rong Bai was used to being glared at, so he smiled and said, "What's the big deal? Dad, you are the master, and I am your son, not the young master. It's obvious that we are father and son."

"You're just talking nonsense." Although Master Rong said this, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth: "Well, let's talk about business. That's why I think your idea is feasible."

"Firstly, the imperial court is too busy to deal with us, and secondly, we have nowhere else to go. Why not give it a try? Besides, my son is always good at judging people."

"The head of Luo family who is favored by you must have some outstanding qualities."

"Isn't it because you are smart? As your son, I am naturally not bad either." Rong Bai shamelessly praised his father and himself before saying: "But Dad, we have to do this..."

He asked Master Rong to lean over to his ear and whispered some evil idea in a low voice, with a wicked smile on his face.

"Hahaha, good, it really is my child." Master Rong slammed his palm on the table and made the final decision: "Li Jin, from now on, everything in the Rong family will be up to Dalang. The life and death of the Rong family depends on this time."

"Dad, no matter whether he lives or dies, it's better than being eaten up by that villain Du Hong." Rong Bai said hatefully.

"Du Hong, humph!" Master Rong snorted coldly.

The next day, when Rong Bai took off his disguise in front of Luo Xi and revealed his true face.

Luo Xi: "..."

I didn’t expect that yesterday’s explosive news would lead to such a result. It’s a bit unexpected.

She thought that this person was undercover in Chaoyang Villa to fight against them, but she didn't expect the result to be...

"You're a man, why are you so slow in doing things?" she said finally.

"..." Rong Bai was stunned: "Boss, what do you mean?"

He understood every word that was said, but he didn't quite understand this sentence.

"Mr. County Magistrate, it's so simple, how come you don't understand?" Liu Xiaoyu smiled and was very happy to answer his question.

"What I mean is that our master knew it from the first day you exchanged identities with Gu Heizi."

"So, your every move was already expected by her."

"This, this, this..." Rong Baihua couldn't even speak clearly, but after a while, he finally understood: "It's the Ninth Floor Master, it's him, right?"

"Ha, I'm really smart all my life but stupid for a moment. How come I didn't expect that the Red Mansion is not only in the business of killing people, but also helps people gather information."

Luo Xi lowered his eyelids and did not tell him that the reason he was exposed was because he recited a poem that could not be more sour.

"Well, Boss." Rong Bai considered for a moment and asked tentatively: "If, I mean if."

"I came to Chaoyang Villa as an undercover agent to do something that would harm the villa..."

Luo Xi raised his eyes and glanced at him lightly, then smiled: "No need for ifs."

"Haven't you noticed that something is wrong with you lately?"

"At night, my back feels a little cold, and my legs feel numb sometimes. After falling asleep, I suddenly feel like I'm falling from the sky..."

"..." Rong Bai's face gradually turned pale. He, he felt that he would indeed feel this way, especially when he suddenly had a falling feeling after sleeping. He had this experience once yesterday.

I was so scared that it took me a long time to fall asleep again.

"Boss, you, you didn't poison me, did you?"

Is it necessary to be so cruel? Hasn't he done anything yet?

"You've gotten smarter this time." Luo Xi smiled: "I thought you didn't understand again."

Rong Bai wanted to cry: "No, how can that be possible."

If he can't understand something that involves his life, what else can he understand?

"Boss, you see, now that I have turned from evil to good, the matter of the antidote..."
