A noble嫡女 (legitimate daughter of a high-ranking official) is framed and falls to the borderlands, losing her memory and becoming a farmer's wife. Su Nanxi arrives with a space (a mystical ...
Geng Yuepeng's subordinates rushed over to report, obviously a step too late. However, Geng Yuepeng couldn't afford to make a scene in front of everyone and give others a handle to laugh at him. So, he waved his hand and dismissed the men without pursuing the matter.
Those men escaped the disaster; they couldn't have flown that fast!
This is a dangerous place; only a fool would stay here. If you can run, don't stay!
No one knows which region these people came from. They hadn't made a sound beforehand, but as if they had timed it perfectly, they suddenly appeared in large numbers, catching everyone off guard!
I don't know which side to look at first, or what to do first!
Everything was planned perfectly, but it was all disrupted by the sudden arrival of troops!
They thought only two groups of people would come, and predicted that they would come in batches rather than all at the same time. These two groups were nothing more than those from the Marquis of Anping's residence and those from Su Nanxi's residence. However, things didn't go according to their plan at all!
All the people who came were unexpected, and those they hoped would come have yet to be seen!
Who leaked the information?
Are you suggesting we've brought all these people here to rebel?
Geng Yuepeng was furious, but his experience told him he had to stay calm. So he suppressed all his negative emotions and quickly composed himself.
When the situation is unclear, you must not panic, otherwise you may easily fall into someone else's trap and fall into their scheme!
He was the one who set the trap, but he never expected that someone else was playing a much bigger game behind the scenes!
Regardless of the circumstances, now that things have come to this, we have to hold on whether it works or not!
Geng Yuepeng then sat back on his throne, which had been specially prepared for him to watch the play. However, instead of watching the play, he ended up performing it himself!
He leaned lazily and arrogantly against his throne, looking down on people with his eyes askance, and his words were even more haughty.
"Who are you? You sound completely unfamiliar. I wonder where the floodwaters came from, washing all of you seafood ashore! I wonder how long it took you to climb up here. You really went to great lengths! This is not a place for you. I advise you not to be tempted by the novelty and curiosity outside. Hurry back to your sea, or you'll be stranded!"
Every word he said was a dig at the other person, a contemptuous and disdainful attitude. You didn’t even need to look to know that the speaker was arrogant and looked down on everyone, speaking with no effort at all!
He implied that the other party was just a bunch of weaklings, no match for Geng Yuepeng at all, and that he wouldn't even bother to make a move. If he did, he probably wouldn't leave a single one alive!
Besides, what kind of status does Geng Yuepeng have? He looks down on those people in the slightest. They're not even qualified to be his opponents!
It's all about fate!
Those people weren't fools. In the world of gangsters, you can't get by without some comprehension skills. They understood what was going on. They were quite angry at first, but then they remembered the purpose of their visit and stopped being angry. Instead, they smiled.
"Master Geng speaks with such eloquence that we are all full of admiration. It is indeed something that we ignorant people cannot learn! Did you all hear that? From now on, we should all learn more from Master Geng, and be more clever and quick-witted! When you speak, you should go around in circles and not be too straightforward. That way, you can make yourself seem more capable and have a feeling of being on cloud nine!"
"Exactly! Reading more books does have its benefits! You can tell from Master Geng's appearance that he reads every day. We should learn from him! When we get back, everyone grab a book and start reading! If you still can't understand something, go to the temple and see how the monks read it! Having more skills means having more options. You bastards won't starve to death in the future!"
"Alright! Don't make things difficult for them. How old are they? Do they still have such sharp minds? They missed a great opportunity, and it's not so easy to make up for it now! Master Geng isn't just good at literature; he's also skilled in martial arts. We can't just focus on one aspect of him! We need to look at the bigger picture! If we can't pick up the literature, then we should focus on improving our martial arts! If we're strong, we'll be able to find opportunities anywhere! Look at us half-baked folks; we have to give way to others and call them 'big brother' wherever we go!"
"That's right! Brothers, do you want to work in the seafood industry? Do you want to be chased and beaten up wherever you go? Regardless of whether you're right or wrong, right? Great! You haven't lost your spirit yet, you're good! Your conscience isn't dead. So, if we encounter injustice on the road, should we lend a hand? Great! We don't do bad things, but we can't stand to see others do evil!"
"Master Geng, what a coincidence! We're from different places, yet we've all gathered here by such a strange coincidence. What a remarkable connection! We're all just wandering around, but what brings you here, Master Geng? Oh dear! And what's this? It seems there are people from the imperial court here too! Judging by their attire... Oh my, Master Geng, your courage is commendable! You've really dared to do this!"
"Hmm! This isn't an ordinary official, he must be a high-ranking one! Inviting someone to such a remote place, is it to enjoy the scenery? Master Geng, your hospitality is lacking. Why don't you invite him to sit down? It's so dirty to sit on the ground!"
"You idiot! Was that an invitation? Didn't you see the straps on that person? That's kidnapping! He's tied up so tightly, tighter than the rice dumplings I make! Aha, sorry! Master Geng, I accidentally told the truth, please don't blame me! I'm not good with words, I really need to learn more!"
"Oh! So they were kidnapped! That's going to be interesting! Let's all choose a spot and stop on our way. We've walked for so long and must be tired. Let's rest here, watch some entertainment, and relax! It's free, so don't miss out! We're all in the same boat, so we should inform each other—no, help each other! We'll definitely watch very carefully. Let's find the best spot quickly, get into formation, and get ready!"
Geng Yuepeng's forehead veins throbbed, and he was almost grinding his teeth to powder. Who on earth leaked the information and let these idiots cause trouble here!
They openly and subtly mocked him, pretending not to understand, as if they really thought he was a complete idiot!
Is he a Peking Opera performer? He even found a good spot to watch the show!
She didn't care about his feelings at all, that's really something!
They came here purely to cause trouble—no, to deal with him!
He finally understood that these people wouldn't let him get away with this today!
Geng Yuepeng didn't remember all those people at all, nor could he recall what kind of conflict they had!
There must be some grudge between them, otherwise, who would come here to join in the fun!
There's not enough excitement outside, and besides, no one in their right mind would come to join in this kind of excitement where you could get hurt or killed at any moment!
Geng Yuepeng also began to think about how many people he had grudges against, but he couldn't figure it out at all, he had no idea!
Looking at this huge group of people, can they kill them all?
"Who else knows our location? Who leaked it?"
