"Brother, someone is coming."

At 10 p.m. in the evening, in the living room of the suite in Hua's house in Huaqiao Village, Han Yichen said to Mu Lige who was boiling water to make tea.

"Um."

Mu Lige slowly poured the boiling water into the teapot until it was eight-tenths full and closed the lid.

"Xiaotian, you should go back to your room and rest. Stay in the room with Xiaobai. No matter what noise you hear, don't come out."

"But, brother..."

"No buts, be obedient, Xiaotian."

"Yes, big brother."

Although Mu Lige spoke gently, his words carried a sense of authority that brooked no argument. Yu Xiaotian obediently carried his little Bai back to his room.

"master!"

After Yu Xiaotian returned to his room, An Yi appeared.

"How is it?"

Mu Lige poured the tea from the teapot into the cups, gave one cup to Han Yichen, and then brought another cup to the table next to An Yi.

"Everything... is ready."

An Yi was frightened by his master's actions. Could it be that he had failed to do his job well and his master wanted to give him a cup of poisoned tea?

"Master, please spare my life. Please allow An Yi to keep his useful body. An Yi will definitely atone for his crime and will go through fire and water for you."

Spare my life?

Mu Lige paused while pouring tea, looked at An Yi who was kneeling on the ground, and then understood.

Was he influenced by that woman and actually poured tea for his subordinates himself? No wonder An Yi was frightened and thought he was going to kill him.

“Cough cough cough…”

"It's not poisonous, just drink it and go away." Mu Lige glanced at An Yi, then slowly looked away.

"Yes... yes, Master!"

An Yi picked up the teacup and glanced at Mu Lige. Then he saw him narrow his eyes slightly, and drank the tea in the cup in one gulp as if he was ready to die.

"Master, you... take care!"

An Yi looked at Mu Lige again with a complicated expression, clasped his hands together towards him, and then slipped out of the living room.

"Brother, your subordinate seems to be a little bit clumsy. Do you need me to give him a few injections?"

Next to Mu Lige, Han Yichen, who was lying on the two-person sofa, played with a strand of hair that fell on his shoulder and joked to Mu Lige.

"Don't mind him. Do you have all your powders ready?"

Mu Lige's lips twitched slightly. It seemed his third brother was also deeply influenced by Hua Qingcheng. After all, as a master, pouring tea and water for his subordinates, a reaction like An Yi's was actually normal.

"With me here, there will be no accidents. Don't worry, big brother." Han Yichen looked at Mu Lige with charming eyes and raised the corners of his lips.

About a quarter of an hour later, the housekeeper Qiu Fu walked in.

"Master, some people are approaching Hua's house from the direction of Pinglan Mountain, and it seems that there are quite a few of them." Qiu Fu said worriedly.

Although the master can plan and win battles thousands of miles away, their men are all in Zhifan Forest. There are only a few of the master's secret guards and some scattered personnel here.

"Well, go down. Turn off the lights and rest."

"Yes, Lord Father."

After Qiu Fu left, Mu Lige and Han Yichen turned off the lights in the living room.

It was a dark and windy night. A group of bandits from Gaimao Mountain in the neighboring Fuyun County, holding torches, were coming from Pinglan Mountain towards Huazhai at the end of Huaqiao Village.

"Boss, is this the place?"

A strong woman holding a torch, riding a brown horse, wearing a camel-colored shorts, with dark skin and a greasy face, turned her head to look at the strong woman who was also riding on the horse beside her.

"Erfeng, according to that nobleman's description, this is definitely the place. Tell the servants to be on high alert. If I can eat a bite of meat, you can have a bite of soup!"

"Guys, did you hear that? Our destination is just ahead, so cheer up. Soon you'll be able to carry as much food as you want, take as much money as you want, and sleep with as many handsome men as you want!" Erfeng shouted loudly to the group of bandits behind them, who were either carrying weapons or driving mule carts.

"You can carry as much food as you want, take as much money as you want, and sleep with as many handsome men as you want!!" The bandits were all very excited.

Recently, fewer and fewer people have passed by Gaimao Mountain, causing their income to drop sharply, forcing them to move to other places to make money.

Just when the bandit leader, Ibuprofen, was worried about the livelihood of the entire village, someone tipped her off, saying there was a wealthy family in Huaqiao Village, Fufeng County, and asked her to patronize them. However, she had to keep Mu Lige and Han Yichen for her, and she could use the others or their belongings as she pleased.

Initially, Ibuprofen didn't believe it. After all, how much could a farmer's home have that was worth her bringing people all the way here to rob? But after hearing that the other party was the owner of Jing Hua Yuan Snacks, she believed it.

Although she was a bandit, she was well-known for the recently popular Mirror Flower Fragrance snacks. So, Ibuprofen brought all her men, about a hundred of them, and came under cover of darkness, intending to make a big move.

"drive!"

Seeing that Hua's house was about a hundred meters ahead, Ibuprofen, who was in a very good mood, whipped his horse with his whip and hurried forward. Erfeng also followed his horse, and the excited bandits behind him also quickened their pace.

However, something strange happened...

“Ohhhh~”

"Mee~Mee~"

In the pitch-silent night, a loud rooster crowed, and right after the rooster crowed, the sound of sheep bleated.

Ibuprofen and his group were surprised to find that their horses or mules began to tremble. No matter how hard they drove them, they kept hesitating and lingering.

"Grandpa, damn it!"

"I've never seen anything like this before! These horses and mules are actually afraid of roosters and goats!"
