I let you have children and you lead seven sinful girls to rebel?

“…” Chen Xuan was speechless.

He didn't come here to quarrel with Yang Ying'er, so he just let her scold him.

"Don't worry, I'm not the kind of person you think I am. Besides, I promised your father that I would take good care of you, and I will never break my promise!"

Chen Xuan looked serious.

If Yang Ying'er had heard this before, she would have sneered, because in her opinion, except for her father, all men are the biggest liars!

But, Chen Xuan fulfilled his promise to her last night, and took her to avenge their hatred and massacred Jinfeng Village!

You know, that's a dangerous place, a den of wolves and dragons, where you can hardly survive!

How many people get scared to the point of their legs going weak when they see the three words "Jinfengzhai"?

And Chen Xuan took her straight to Huanglong, killing everyone in blood, leaving no one alive!

Therefore, she believed that Chen Xuan’s promise was not a joke!

"It's my fault, actually. If I hadn't gone to the Ping An Escort Agency to ask your father..."

Chen Xuan sighed softly. Asking Yang Xun to escort the caravan was something he regretted.

However, before Chen Xuan could finish his words, Yang Ying'er raised her hand to interrupt him, "My father once said, 'People die for money, and birds die for food.' In our line of work, we're walking on the edge of a knife. If nothing goes wrong today, something will happen tomorrow."

"He warned me since I was little that if something unexpected happened while escorting someone, I must never hate the owner of the escort. If someone died while escorting someone, it would be because I was not as skilled as them."

"If you are not as skilled as others, you must admit it. If you can survive, it is your own ability. If you die, it is your own fate!"

"So, I won't blame you. I just hate that I'm too incompetent to protect my father and the brothers in the escort agency!"

As she spoke, Yang Ying'er's eyes turned red again and tears welled up in her eyes uncontrollably.

Chen Xuan stood beside her and asked seriously, "Do you want to learn Kung Fu?"

Yang Ying'er immediately looked up at him, and their eyes met.

"If you want to learn, follow me when you get to the frontier, and I'll teach you!"

"Okay!" Yang Ying'er was not a pretentious woman. She was straightforward and nodded.

"Now, don't keep anything in your heart. If you want to cry, just cry. I'm here. You can always lean on my shoulder!"

Chen Xuan touched her head.

At this moment, I really feel sorry for this girl.

Yang Ying'er saw her father's shadow and responsibility in Chen Xuan, and all the grievances and sadness that had been pent up in her heart burst out at this moment.

She couldn't bear it any longer, so she held Chen Xuan's waist, buried her head in Chen Xuan's arms, and burst into tears.

"Be good, if you're in a bad mood, just cry it out. Don't hold it in. It's painful if you hold it in."

Chen Xuan gently stroked her head and comforted her softly.

I don’t know how long she cried, or maybe because she was too tired from doing homework all night, Yang Ying’er fell asleep in Chen Xuan’s arms.

It’s good to be able to fall asleep, then you won’t feel so sad.

Chen Xuan picked up Yang Ying'er by the waist and carried her to the bed. After covering her with a quilt, he gently closed the door.

He himself couldn't sleep because he still had a lot of things to do.

Chen Xuan walked downstairs and saw the shopkeeper calculating accounts with an abacus behind the counter.

"The shopkeeper's."

"Sir, is there anything you need?"

The shopkeeper's alliance asked with a smile, this is a big customer, of course he has to greet him with a smile, it is impossible to offend him.

"Has anything big happened in Bandit Mountain recently?" Chen Xuan asked deliberately.

Logically speaking, the news that Jinfeng Village was massacred would soon be spread, and it would definitely cause quite a stir.

So he came here to find out on purpose.

"Sir, you've come to the right person to ask me this. Although our shop is small, we have a lot of customers coming and going, and they come from all over the world. They often discuss things, and sometimes we accidentally hear some big secrets."

The shopkeeper chuckled and continued, "A big thing really happened in Bandit Mountain yesterday!"

"Oh? What's the big deal?"

Chen Xuan raised his eyebrows.

"Well, sir, it's not that I don't want to talk about it, but some things are taboo, and I'm afraid of getting into trouble if I tell you."

The shopkeeper chuckled, as if to say that I shouldn't gossip about him.

How could Chen Xuan not understand what he meant? He casually took out a small piece of gold from his pocket and threw it to him.

There was no other way. He had neither silver nor copper coins, only gold. He could only be generous and treat it as spending money to buy intelligence.

The moment he saw the gold, the shopkeeper's eyes lit up. He quickly grabbed it and took a bite with his teeth, leaving a perfect tooth mark on it, which meant that it was real gold.

"Sir, how generous of you!"

The shopkeeper's face instantly smiled as brightly as a chrysanthemum.

After taking the money, they became much more respectful. Without Chen Xuan asking, they started talking incessantly, wishing to tell him everything they knew.

"Sir, you don't know, this is Bandit Mountain, there are many bandits and vagrants, there are dozens of mountain passes, big and small."

"Among them, there's a hilltop called Jinfeng Village. It's an old bandit den with quite a few bandits, reportedly around three to four hundred. The head of the group is a martial arts expert, said to be a warrior at a very high level."

"On a normal day, the bandits in Jinfeng Village burn, kill, rob, and commit all kinds of evil. They terrify ordinary people like us!"

"But just yesterday, as fate would have it, who can escape the clutches of fate? From the eighty-year-old bandits to the young bandits who barely opened their eyes last night, the infamous Jinfeng Village was completely wiped out. Not a single one was spared!"

"It's said that the scene was horrific. Some people were so frightened by the sight of corpses strewn across the ground of Jinfeng Village that they lost their souls. Some even peed their pants and crawled back home..."

The shopkeeper described the scene vividly, as if he had been there in person.

"Oh, there's such a thing? Hundreds of people in a village died, and no one reported it to the authorities?"

Chen Xuan pretended to know nothing and looked very surprised.

"Report it to the authorities? What a joke! The authorities would like them all to die. The authorities won't care about this matter."

Next, the shopkeeper chatted with Chen Xuan about all sorts of things.

After all, he had accepted half a tael of gold from Chen Xuan, and he was afraid that Chen Xuan would take it back, so his main focus now was to provide emotional value.

"Boss, I need a map of Bandit Mountain. It would be best if it had all the bandit lairs and hilltops marked. Can you get it here?"

Chen Xuan didn't have time to listen to the old man playing the piano here, he had serious things to do.

"That's easy, sir. Many people who enter Bandit Mountain will buy maps to avoid the other bandits here. A map is not cheap, but I have a connection with you, sir, so I will give you one for free."

The shopkeeper spoke with a smile, opened the drawer under the counter, took out a parchment-like drawing and gently handed it to Chen Xuan.

As the saying goes, money makes the world go round.

Chen Xuan didn't waste any time, took the map and took a careful look at it.

Finally, he saw the three words "Liufeng Village" at a glance.

This is also a bandit's den. According to the markings on the map, it is very close to Jinfeng Village, less than ten miles away.

"Boss, give me a horse."

Chen Xuan took out a tael of gold and silver and threw it to the shopkeeper again.

The shopkeeper was immediately delighted.

I really made a fortune today. I met the stupid son of a landlord. He paid me with gold. He spent money like water!

Once the money is in place, the quality of service will naturally be in place.

Soon, the shopkeeper asked the waiter to bring a tall and handsome horse. Of course, this horse was rented to Chen Xuanqi and had to be returned.

If you don't want to pay it back, you have to pay an additional fifty taels of gold.

The price of a horse is roughly in this range.

The shopkeeper was not worried that Chen Xuan would run away on horseback, after all, the women he brought were still in the inn.

"If the girls I brought with me wake up, tell them that I'm out doing something and will be back soon. Ask them to wait for me at the inn."

After getting on the horse, Chen Xuan gave instructions to the shopkeeper.
