After a while, several middle-aged women and young girls in simple clothes came up, staring at Yue Liuyun without blinking, and talking a lot.

The woman in the lead had fine lines at the corners of her eyes, and her skin was slightly darker due to long-term sun exposure. She looked particularly kind, but one could faintly see the charm of her youth.

She took Yue Liuyun's hand, turned her head and smiled at the young man and said:

"Ergou, where did you rescue such a beautiful girl? She looks so pretty..."

Immediately someone whispered:

"Yes, yes, your skin is so white..."

"If only I could be as white as this..."

"Her eyes are so black and bright..."

"It's so beautiful..."

The sunlight in Quanzhou is very strong, and the people here have a much darker skin tone than those in Dongdu, a very healthy wheat color. Yue Liuyun, with her fair skin, stands out among them.

Yue Liuyun's attention was drawn to the word "Ergou". The corner of his mouth twitched and he looked at the young man strangely.

This guy is called "Er Gou"?

The young man smiled and did not deny the title. His tan skin and deep features shone brightly in the morning sun. He replied:

"...Aunt Xun, I picked this up on the way. Please help prepare a place for her to stay."

"Okay, then live next to my room. That room is empty." Aunt Xun's hands were very hot and covered with thick calluses.

Yue Liuyun hadn't been held so affectionately by an elder for a long time.

She was stunned for a long while before she smiled, shook her hand back, and said with a little awkwardness:

"Thank you, Aunt Xun."

"I was in some danger just now, but luckily this big brother came to my rescue and allowed me to stay in the village for a few days."

"Excuse me."

Aunt Xun seemed to be overwhelmed by Yue Liuyun's sweet call of "Auntie". She couldn't stop laughing and said:

"...Okay, okay, okay, that's it. It's not a big deal. Let Ergou show you around first. I'll go clean up your place and prepare lunch!"

Yue Liuyun nodded and smiled, "Thank you, Auntie."

Several middle-aged women immediately followed Aunt Xun to the kitchen. The young girls smiled at Yue Liuyun, revealing a row of neat and clean teeth, and turned around to do their own things.

The rosy glow was at its peak, dyeing half the sky red, like a brocade, dazzling and gorgeous. Then the sun jumped above the horizon and the rosy glow dissipated.

Everything around her was peaceful and contented, and most passersby looked at her with kindness. After removing their armor, the bandits helped with the rough work like the men of ordinary families.

Yue Liuyun stood there in a daze, as if thinking about something.

The young man raised his hand and waved it in front of her eyes, laughing loudly:

"Are you stupid? You shouldn't be like that. Weren't you quite familiar just now?"

She finally came to her senses and stared at him without saying a word.

The young man touched his face, thinking there was something dirty.

The next second, Yue Liuyun's eyes were as determined as if he was going to join the party. He clasped his fists towards him and said:

"Dude, I never thought you were such a good person!"

At present, Quanzhou and Wuzhou have become the most chaotic places in the entire Daying. The people in this area are either addicted to smoking addictive opium or are starving, and cannibalism has even occurred. However, the people in power are still extravagant, licentious, dark and corrupt.

At this time, it is normal for bandits to emerge and set up their own factions.

She originally thought that this bandit leader was an ambitious man. In troubled times, heroes emerge. No matter what means he uses, as long as he has the ability and means, he can achieve his own hegemony.

But that doesn't seem to be the case.

He may be ambitious, but he was able to build his bandit lair into a paradise and take in so many people, most of whom were the elderly, the weak, women and children... He can only be an out-and-out good man.

This is not an easy task.

It is admirable that this person can do this.

youth:"……"

Unexpectedly, Surprisingly

You are really good at talking.

"Honestly," Yue Liuyun said seriously, "I originally thought I was just unlucky. I was able to board a pirate ship by boat, but it started raining halfway, and I encountered cannibalistic beggars, and then I entered a den of thieves..."

Before she finished speaking, the young man couldn't help but sneered and reminded her in a friendly way:

"...If it really comes to this, you should doubt your luck."

Yue Liuyun shook his head and said:

"No, now it seems that I am really lucky."

If she had truly encountered a vicious bandit, it would have been a fierce battle. She wouldn't have been able to escape unscathed, nor would she have been able to negotiate a deal. All she could say was that this strange combination of circumstances had inexplicably helped her path forward more smoothly.

Yue Liuyun continued to bow and said, "In short, Brother Ergou, I now look upon you with new respect."

youth:"……"

The young man's mouth twitched.

What the hell is “Brother Ergou”?

He said speechlessly, "...Listen carefully, my name is Pei Duo, and the name 'Er Gou' is only used by Aunt Xun now."

Yue Liuyun nodded.

Pei Duo...lost a lot.

This is really similar to "Liu Mang".

They are also rare talents.

"Also," Pei Duo said frankly, "...you were wrong just now. I'm not a good person."

He reminded him, "...Don't forget the conditions you promised me. If you can't do it, you have no right to discuss cooperation with me."

Yue Liuyun smiled noncommittally and said calmly:

"nature."

-

Quanzhou.

Governor's Mansion.

At night, lanterns flickered on either side of the gate. Golden wind chimes gleamed brightly against the vermilion courtyard walls. Inside, the palace was ablaze with lights, shimmering with golden light, and silken curtains swayed gently in the breeze. In the corner, musicians played enticing melodies with their delicate hands, while singers sang graceful tunes with their soft, crimson lips.

The dancers were dressed in transparent gauze, twisting their waists and dancing lightly, and the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers and wine.

The man sitting on the high hall had his chest exposed and reeked of alcohol. He was hugging three or two half-dressed beauties on his left and right. Their soft jade fingers held wine glasses, and he drank the wine in the glasses, enjoyed the singing and dancing, and sighed with satisfaction.

"Report——"

The soldier hurried into the hall with his head lowered, but unexpectedly bumped into a dancer who was performing a dance. The woman cried out "Ouch" and let out a sweet laugh like a silver bell. Her clothes, which were already as thin as a cicada's wing, were torn to pieces, revealing her beauty.

The Quanzhou governor narrowed his eyes, laughed heartily, and reached out to embrace the woman. He groped around for a bit before scolding the soldiers:

"Fool, you're in such a hurry to be reincarnated. You've offended my beauty. What's your punishment?"

The soldier was so frightened that he fell to his knees, trembling and saying, "Please calm down, sir. I know I was wrong!"

"It's just that I have something important to report!"

The Quanzhou governor took a sip of wine, narrowed his lustful eyes, pressed the woman in his arms down, and said lazily: "...Speak."
