A lucky cat fell from the sky.

Chapter 65 Taking the art of staged accidents to the extreme

The sun sets early in the mountains.

Soon, a strange phenomenon appeared, dividing day and night. On one side was light, and on the other side was darkness, with the darkness rapidly moving towards the light.

Although Lu Dongyang and the young model complained, they had no choice but to keep moving forward.

Lu Dongxuan remained silent throughout the entire process.

She treated this journey as a form of spiritual practice, so she paid little attention to Lu Dongyang and the others' sighs at every step.

Actually, she was the one carrying the heaviest load on this hike. She was carrying a travel bag, which contained nothing but small yellow croakers.

Before coming to Sixia Village, Lu Youqi had told Lu Dongxuan about the matter. In this medicine market, only cash and gold can be used, and many things cannot be bought with cash. It is best to carry gold.

If she's alone, she can walk or take a car.

But with Lu Dongyang and this little model along, things were different. The two of them were a complete burden, and she couldn't possibly take care of both of them at the same time, so she hadn't even considered taking a car earlier.

She straightened her travel bag and urged Lu Dongyang to hurry up.

When we were still some distance from the village entrance, the sun had completely set.

Only the colorful clouds illuminated the sky.

At this moment, the cries of wild animals rose from the mountains, some sounding like crying, some like laughing, and some like an old man coughing.

It gives people the creeps.

The young model followed closely behind Lu Dongyang.

Lu Dongyang's palms were also sweating.

At that moment, torches were lit at the village entrance, and someone shouted, "Guests have arrived!"

The sound of guests arriving echoed through the mountains, reaching the entire village.

Suddenly, torches lit up many homes.

This village is isolated from the outside world and doesn't even have electricity, so they only have torches for lighting.

Lu Dongxuan looked closely and saw so many torches burning, and breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems I haven't arrived too late.

The rule of the medicine market in this village is that guests must be accompanied by a villager to enter the market. If no one is there to guide you, it is useless no matter how much gold you bring.

It is said that in previous years, there were always some people who did not know the rules and tried to rush into the medicine market after arriving late. As a result, they disappeared halfway there. When the medicine market ended, people found them at the village entrance. They had all gone insane.

These mentally unstable individuals are mostly at the Martial Apprentice level, and some even possess expertise beyond that level, which is why they dare to rely on brute force to break through.

As a result, he ended up looking like an idiot.

Some say there are poisonous insects around the medicine market, while others say there are ghosts. The most reliable explanation is that there is a formation around the medicine market, and only villagers from Sixia Village can lead the way. Otherwise, no matter how skilled you are, it will be in vain.

Moreover, the number of people each family can bring is limited, depending on the number of people a family can accommodate.

Generally speaking, a family can only accommodate about three people, so almost everyone who comes to the medicine market is in groups of two or three. If there are more people, the family can't accommodate them all, so they won't take you in.

Originally, Lu Dongxuan planned to bring Lu Dongyang along, but Lu Dongyang insisted on bringing his new dating model with him, which made Lu Dongxuan quite unhappy, as another person would be an extra burden.

What infuriated her even more was that Lu Dongyang and the young model treated this place like a vacation, complaining about this and that. Lu Dongxuan was reaching her limit along the way.

They chose a house that looked spacious and went inside.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Lu Dongyang exclaimed, "Holy crap, it's you, you bastard!"

As luck would have it, they ended up entering the home of the carriage driver.

The family that drives the cart has a large house because they keep donkeys.

Lu Dongxuan never expected to be so unlucky, arriving at her home while rushing to catch the train.

Lu Dongyang was furious that the person who was supposed to be rushing to catch the train didn't give them a ride.

He said on the way that he shouldn't run into that driver, and that if he did, he would teach him a lesson. And now he actually did.

The driver smiled and said, "We don't have any dogs, but we have plenty of donkeys. If you think my family isn't good enough, please consider a promotion."

"Let us leave? We'll beat you up first." Lu Dongyang's temper flared up, and he rolled up his sleeves, ready to fight.

Lu Dongxuan quickly stopped her.

But Lu Dongyang's temper flared up and he wouldn't listen to reason; he had already rushed up to beat the driver.

Despite his burly appearance, the driver was surprisingly weak. Before Lu Dongyang could even touch him, the driver shouted "He's hitting me!" and collapsed to the ground.

This left Lu Dongyang completely bewildered.

What kind of nonsense is this? How can there be staged accidents in these remote mountains and forests?

The driver's shout immediately drew the attention of neighbors from all around, who quickly surrounded them.

Wu Cheng was among these people, but he was standing outside the crowd, so Lu Dongyang and the others didn't see him.

He did see Lu Dongyang, and he also saw the coachman who had picked him up that morning. Seeing the coachman lying on the ground, he knew what had happened.

He thought to himself that this simple mountain village had been corrupted by that old fellow Guo Sidi.

Why does everyone seem to stage accidents to extort money?

However, it seems that the driver wasn't really trying to extort money from Lu Dongyang and his companions; he just thought it was fun to stage an accident like this.

Otherwise, Wu Cheng felt that he was no match for this strong and vigorous man, so how could he let a weakling like Young Master Lu be knocked to the ground?

Seeing everyone gather around, Lu Dongxuan quickly called out to Lu Dongyang, then clasped her hands in a fist salute to explain, "Everyone has misunderstood, we didn't hit him."

"Misunderstanding? How did we misunderstand?" someone in the crowd shouted. "You city people, when you come to our mountain village, you have to abide by our village rules, or you'd better get back right now."

"Yes, go back."

Wu Cheng also shouted along with everyone else, "Go back!"

The mountain village was bustling with activity for a time, and the echoes lingered for a long time.

The young model had never seen anything like this before and burst into tears. Upon seeing her cry, Lu Dongyang became anxious: "How dare you! Do you know who we are? We are the Lu family."

"I don't care if you're from the Lu or Gui family, is Sixia Village a place for you to run wild? Get out of here!"

Lu Dongyang wanted to argue, but Lu Dongxuan slapped him across the face. He covered his face and looked at Lu Dongxuan, only to see her pretty face was icy cold. He didn't dare to say anything more.

Lu Dongxuan suppressed her anger, looked at the villagers around her, and took out a large handful of gold bars from her travel bag: "Fellow villagers, we were wrong this time, and we are willing to compensate you. Here are five small yellow croakers as compensation for this uncle."

"We'll stay at this uncle's house, and we'll pay five small yellow croakers for lodging. Is that alright, uncle?"
