Chapter 470 Are we the cowardly ones?
Bandit?
bandit?
These words suddenly popped into her mind.
Combining those robbery and looting scenes he saw in TV dramas, Chen Jinyue was a little trembling.
I couldn't help but complain, "You won't tell me unless I ask you, right? Aren't you in omnipotent mode? You won't give me a warning?"
Xianxing analyzed rationally, "Those people are probably bandits. Their lair is nearby. If we go another 300 meters, I can scan their lair in more detail."
Subtext: After three hundred meters, it will actively issue a warning.
"Why don't you come closer? How about we go to their hideout and let you scan it?" Chen Jinyue said to it angrily.
Xianxing asked in surprise, "Is it possible?"
Chen Jinyue, “…”
"You don't have to go in. Just get closer. There's a city on the other side of the mountain. I'll take a look."
“…”
Chen Jinyue was speechless. He suddenly turned to Zhou Yichuan and complained angrily, "I'll tear it apart when I get home! It's not smart anymore!"
Xianxing explained aggrievedly, "Ms. Chen, I've conducted a thorough risk assessment, and those people are no match for us. We have the ability to protect ourselves, and we have guards behind us. Furthermore, I must do my best to complete the task while ensuring my safety."
Zhou Yichuan glanced at it and said, "Well, it was demolished. They actually concealed the situation."
Holding a star, “…”
Jiang Qi'an, "..."
He was amazed at the ability of the star that could detect the city on the other side of the mountain.
Then I heard this ambiguous meaning.
As expected of someone he admired, she must have guessed that he was hiding something.
He spoke in a gentle voice, taking over what Xianxing said and began to explain—
He knew there were bandits nearby.
Since the new lanes were built and the route changed, this official road has been experiencing problems more frequently.
Freight merchants often fall into trouble on this official road, and even Sang Heyuan had been fooled once before.
The purpose of bringing them here this time was to find out the situation here and then catch all these bandits in one fell swoop.
Although he seems to be traveling alone, he is actually accompanied by guards.
The reason why he is so cautious is mainly because he is determined to win this time.
Those bandits weren't just any ordinary bandits. Based on what Sang Heyuan had described, there was a high possibility they were spies from the enemy nation. He was worried that if he missed, he'd alert the enemy...
"Are you worried that we might leak the secret?" Zhou Yichuan asked in a gentle voice, but his words were sharp.
Jiang Qian was slightly startled and quickly explained, "Of course not! I was just worried that you would be scared and it would affect your mood."
At this point, he said with some apology, "I promised to invite you to play, but I let you take risks. I feel bad, so I want you to have a good time. Leave the work to me and Xianxing. I will also do my best to protect you two and will never let you get involved in this matter..."
His original plan was to wait for Xianxing to detect danger and then split his troops into two groups.
Some people escorted them back, while others surrounded the bandits' lair.
After listening to his sincere explanation, Zhou Yichuan said nothing.
He just turned and looked at Chen Jinyue.
Chen Jinyue sighed softly, feeling somewhat helpless.
Perhaps it was her teasing before, 'Are you sure you are joking?' that made him conceal the truth out of kindness.
"Are we cowards? We are friends, and we are willing to help you. That's why we are here today! Knowing that you have made comprehensive arrangements, we are definitely willing to trust you!"
"I'm sorry, I made random assumptions and acted on my own, and I thought you were superficial."
When Jiang Qianan heard her words, he was moved and ashamed.
Chen Jinyue waved his hand and said, "Forget it. If you give me half of the wealth you earned from suppressing the bandits, I won't hold it against you. It won't happen again!"
Zhou Yichuan, “???”
She is worthy of being his wife.
It doesn't need to be too complicated, just keep it simple.
Jiang Qi'an was also stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing. Miss Chen was indeed as frank and straightforward as ever. How great...
"Now that the location has been determined, I will immediately call the guards to escort you two back to the imperial city. My cousin has already prepared a dinner at Yanyue Tower." Jiang Qian'an said in a gentle voice.
Chen Jinyue didn't answer, but just looked at Zhou Yichuan subconsciously.
As expected, there are two different people sleeping in the same bed, and the other person also has an eagerness in his eyes.
So she spoke decisively, "Since we're going to make a fortune together, there's no point in letting you face it alone! Besides, we haven't seen the bandits yet, so let's go and take a look together!"
Jiang Qi'an, "..."
Have you never seen a bandit?
This reason is very fresh and unconventional.
He subconsciously looked at Zhou Yichuan, and seeing that he obviously agreed, he silently sighed at the tacit understanding between the two of them.
The three of them finally went together...
It’s simple, I just trust the reviews.
Its risk assessment concluded that even without the guards behind them, the three of them were capable of protecting themselves.
Isn’t it?
Xianxing has attack skills, but he is timid and noisy, so he never uses them.
Among the other three, Jiang Qian'an is probably the weaker one, as he only has an energy barrier releaser for defense and a mind-flying vehicle for escape.
The other two had plenty of personal weapons from the stars.
Haven't actually used it yet.
The carriage continued to move forward leisurely, heading precisely towards the bandits' ambush area...
…
The bandits in this area haven't been active for more than half a month.
I scout and ambush every day, but I can't even wait for a ghost.
Very depressed.
At this moment, looking at the night falling, I felt even more dejected.
"Boss, why don't we retreat? There's no one here during the day, and even less at night!" A younger brother who yawned countless times couldn't help but remind him.
Another younger brother also grumbled, "I don't know what's going on lately, but there are fewer and fewer people on this official road."
"Exactly, why are there so few people on the official road? It's like it's deserted!"
"Don't you two know? The government has issued a proclamation. Now, only those who are a little skilled and want to take a shortcut will choose this road. No one else dares to do so." Yawning brother reminded.
"Government? We're so careful, how could we be targeted?"
"No, then why are we still holding on to this piece of land?"
“…”
The thoughts of these two people are actually the thoughts of most brothers.
They didn't understand why the boss didn't change places.
If they continue to squat like this, they will all be left with nothing.
Yawning Little Brother got excited when he talked about this, and started gossiping, "Do you remember the guy who ran away from the boss last time?"
Of course they know this. They robbed that gang and have been making a living from it ever since.
It would be great if there were fat sheep like that every day...
"The richest man in Kyoto, Sang Heyuan!" Hayao's eyes sparkled as he spoke. "I heard he's a favorite of the Crown Prince, and his business stretches far and wide!"
The two younger brothers opened their mouths wide enough to swallow an egg. "That's the one that went wrong, right? No wonder he's wanted!"
"We have offended him, so we should leave! I heard that several places in Gouya Mountain were closed down some time ago!" The younger brother was nervous and confused.
"Why are you walking?"
Yawning was very confident. "No one can break into our territory! This road is the shortest way to transport goods. Sang Heyuan has some skills, so he will definitely keep coming. Let's wait and see...ah!"
The eldest brother, who had been observing his surroundings, took action and quickly hit the yawning younger brother on the head with his sheath.
"Shut up, someone's coming!"
“!!!”
Everyone perked up.
Could it really be the fearless Sang Heyuan?
