The sacred tree is about to pass, and the cannon fodder's wish countdown is coming

Xie Yue moved awkwardly, "I know you didn't mean it, but if you want to..."

If you want to touch it, you can...

"What are you thinking about?" Lu Shi took out a bag of silver from his clothes and responded to what Xie Yue said.

"Nothing." Xie Yue quickly denied.

He thought he must be crazy. How could he have the nerve to say such shameful words?

Fortunately, he was interrupted by Lu Shi, otherwise he would not know how to deal with such an embarrassing situation.

When it comes to matters of the heart, it's enough for both of them to know each other. After all, Lu Shi was the one who took the initiative, so he had to be reserved.

When Xie Yue glanced at Lu who was happily counting the silver, his heart was filled with satisfaction and he felt very fulfilled.

With the money, they were guaranteed security, and they walked to the town with ease.

When they arrived in the town, they first changed their clothes, then had a sumptuous meal, bought some dry food, hired a carriage and a driver, and started their journey to Beijing.

Time was short and they had limited money, so the food was not so exquisite.

"This pancake is not tasty at all. It's cold and hard, and there's no filling inside."

Lu Shi took one bite of the pancake and couldn't eat any more. She was completely spoiled in this world. She had eaten a lot of delicacies from land and sea, and occasionally enjoyed porridge and side dishes, but she was really helpless to deal with the tasteless pancake.

In order not to waste food, Lu Shi directly threw the bitten cake to Xie Yue, "Hey, Xie Yue, eat more."

"You, you." Not knowing what to say, Xie Yue could only smile and shake his head.

He hadn't touched his own pancake yet, and he didn't plan to do so either, so he just ate the one that Lu Shi hadn't finished.

When they reached a small path in the mountains, Xie Yue stopped the carriage and said, "I'm going to see if there's any game in the mountains and cook some meat for you."

"I'll go with you!" Lu Shi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he couldn't suppress his excitement at all.

It was worth her many hints, Xie Yue finally understood that she wanted to eat meat.

Lu Shi quickly took Xie Yue's hand and got out of the car, looking more active than anyone else.

"Slow down, don't be in a hurry. Otherwise, if you make such a big noise, even if there are prey, they will be scared away by you."

"It's okay, it's okay. Have you forgotten that I'm a master archer? I was the one who shot the beggar chicken outside the Imperial Temple with a stone!"

"So it's true. I thought you were just bragging at that time." Xie Yue teased with a smile. He was very happy that Lu Shi took the initiative to hold his hand.

"Just wait, I'll prove it to you!"

Lu Shi let go of Xie Yue's hand, squatted on the ground and grabbed a handful of pebbles, looking as if he had enough ammunition and was ready to set off.

The warmth on his hand disappeared, and a hint of gloom flashed across Xie Yue's eyes.

Lu Shi originally thought that he could show his skills, but accidents always happen. When they were concentrating on looking for prey, they unknowingly walked into the encirclement of a group of bandits.

The bandits suddenly jumped out from somewhere and surrounded the two of them.

"I planted this tree, I built this road. If you want to pass through, leave some money for passage."

Classic robbery quote, Lu Shi raised his eyebrows in amusement, "What a coincidence, we two have no money."

"What?" The leading "One-Eyed Wolf" cast a suspicious look on the two of them and looked at them carefully.

The younger brother behind him hurriedly said, "Second Master, don't be fooled by them. I just took a close look. They are wearing such fine clothes, and their carriage is also very luxurious. How could they be without money?"

The one-eyed wolf's second in command had a black cloth covering his left eye. Hearing this, he began to frown and said, "You little bastards, how dare you lie to me? Take them back and let them see the methods of our village."

"okay!"

A group of bandits looked at Lu and his partner as if they were looking at a pile of gold, and they rubbed their hands together excitedly.

Few people could stand the methods used in their stronghold. Many people would rather die than surrender at the foot of the mountain, but they became obedient after entering the stronghold and took out all their money without being told what to do.

These two people seem to have good temperaments, and their faces look like those of wealthy people, very handsome.

This time they will definitely make a lot of money from copying.

Without saying a word, ropes were tied around Lu Shi and Xie Yue's hands.

The two did not resist. Lu Shi's main reason was that she couldn't let her character collapse. Her character was that of a playboy who only knew how to play with cats and walk dogs. How could she fight?

The second reason is that they don’t have any shadow guards around them, so the chances of a successful resistance are slim, and it will also implicate Xie Yue.

Thirdly, because this group of bandits was a very interesting bunch, she decided to go and take a look at their village.

Xie Yue saw that Lu was extremely curious and followed suit without resisting.

If something happens...

Anyway, he already owes the system 2000 points, so it doesn't matter if he owes a little more. It doesn't seem like having too much debt is a burden.

Being taken to the gate of the stronghold, Lu Shi finally saw the true appearance of the stronghold.

The village was built halfway up the mountain, surrounded by dense forests. From a distance, only a few wooden houses could be seen.

Entering the village, it felt even more eerie, like a haunted house. Strange wooden carvings lined the road, a few skulls lay on the ground, and tattered flags fluttered in the wind.

Occasionally the wind blows, making a whimpering sound, as if countless wronged souls are crying.

Lu Shi laughed secretly in her heart. This scene was like the horror games she had played before.

She observed her surroundings with great interest, showing no fear at all. Xie Yue, on the other hand, remained alert, paying attention to the movements around him.

Several bandits looked at each other and communicated their thoughts with their eyes.

The first younger brother said: "What should we do, Second Master? These two don't seem afraid."

Second in command: "How would I know what to do?"

The group of people were already scared out of their wits at the entrance of the village, and they were even more frightened when they entered the village and saw the layout inside.

This trick always works, but who knew it would suddenly backfire, and on two guys who looked like weaklings.

The second in command said: "Take them to the village chief. I don't believe that the village chief can do anything."

Second Brother: 'That's it!'

"Hmm," several bandits nodded in unison.

After a while, the scenery finally returned to normal, without the scary elements on the road ahead.

Lu Shi and Xie Yue were brought to an open space, and they finally met the legendary village chief, but they only saw his back.

They were looking at it carefully. There was nothing special about the back figure, except that the gender was different from what they imagined. The village chief seemed to be a woman.

Suddenly, the figure with its back to them suddenly moved, and then approached them rapidly at an extremely fast speed.

Then, the figure suddenly turned around, with disheveled hair, and a ferocious and terrifying face with green face and fangs appeared in front of them.

The face was covered with blue veins and bloodshot, the eyes flashed with a strange light, and the mouth was open, revealing two sharp teeth, as if it might pounce and bite them at any time.

"Give me back my life~"
