After entering the book, I emptied the warehouse of my foster mother's house to farm

Yueying and No. 4 were taken back to the village.

It is called a mountain stronghold, but in fact it is just a few temporary thatched huts and nearby caves.

It is more like a kiln factory than a cave, because the cave is very large and the inner wall is pitch black. A layer of black ash will appear when you touch it with your hand. There are traces of fire everywhere. Maybe bricks and tiles were fired here a long, long time ago.

Yueying was locked in the innermost part of the cave.

As for No. 4, everyone thought he was an unarmed coachman and were not very wary of him. After he was brought back, they asked him to help with the fire and do odd jobs.

There were about thirty bandits in this group. About sixty or ten of them went with the boss to rob people. The dozen or so who stayed at home heard that the boss was going to be a groom tonight, especially since the women were of noble status, they immediately clamored to drink and eat meat to celebrate.

The eldest boss's face was also filled with joy. If he married this delicate and beautiful county lady tonight, he might be able to become an official in the future.

Those corrupt officials were corrupt and abused their power, and exploited the people. Didn't they just rely on the support of the court, so the people couldn't do anything to them? Once he slept with the county lady and got the official position, he would turn around and bring people to chop off these corrupt officials.

The most important thing is that this time he can make money, sleep with women, and become an official in the future. This kind of good thing is really rare.

"Tonight, let's drink to our heart's content!"

At the boss's command, all the brothers cheered in unison.

However, among the cheering crowd, there was a man with a hunched back. Although he was waving a big knife in his hand to celebrate, his eyes were fixed on the entrance of the cave.

The bandits have been here for some time. They did not come up from the foot of the mountain where the pilgrims from the suburbs of Beijing went up, but from the other side of the mountain.

After they found this place, they settled down and hid in the mountains without doing any bad things until a few days ago when the nobleman who recruited them sent a letter, which led to today's action.

Baiyun Mountain is not big or small, and what they did did not leave any traces. Being in this hinterland, people from outside cannot find it for a while. When the rice is cooked, as for women, if you are satisfied with the service, why worry that she will turn her elbow outward?

Therefore, these people were so bold that they kept shouting for wine and food and would not stop until they were drunk.

Just as Yueying broke the rope tied around her hands, footsteps were heard outside.

Finished drinking so quickly?

But the footsteps were light and seemed cautious, obviously not from the bandits who were still laughing, playing finger-guessing games and drinking outside.

"Fourth uncle?"

Yueying shouted softly.

Footsteps were approaching, but no sound came through.

Yueying still pretended to be tied up and watched what would happen.

A stealthy figure came in, looking back every few steps. He was slightly stunned when he saw Yueying with her face masked. But thinking of what the bandits said, he immediately pounced on her and untied the rope for her.

However, just as he approached Yueying, Yueying suddenly stood up, grabbed his arm with her left hand and pulled it, and pinched his throat with her right hand like a claw, and shouted: "What do you want to do?"

"County Lady, it's me."

The person who was restrained by Yueying did not resist, but instead hurriedly spoke out to identify himself.

However, he was clearly dressed as a bandit.

Yueying didn't let go, but squeezed even tighter: "Don't lie to me!"

"Jiang Hao, don't you recognize me?"

"Take a good look at who I am!"

"It's me, Chen Chuan."

……

Yueying gradually loosened her hand after hearing his name.

Chen Chuan immediately broke free, rubbed his neck, and looked closely: "Are you not Jiang Hao?"
