Zhou Bin arrived in a new world in a daze, his mind was still in a daze, and he also lost his memory.
At this moment, there was only one thought in his mind, which was to fill his stomach because he was really hungry.
But he had already angered two bandits who had entered the village, and one of them raised a knife to chop him.
Zhou Bin didn't seem to be afraid at all. He just sat there leisurely, eating something.
In fact, it was because his mind was not clear at the moment and he only felt instinctively hungry.
Liu Shouxian was so frightened that he shouted, "Brothers, please don't do anything. This is my nephew. Please show some mercy!"
One of the bandits immediately shouted, "Old man, this is your nephew? How come I don't know?"
Liu Shouxian hurriedly explained: "Brothers, this is my distant nephew, who just came to Lihua Village today. He has some problems with his brain, so please don't take it personally!"
The two looked at Zhou Bin, who was still chewing the steamed bread and showed no sign of fear.
The two looked at each other and cursed, "Damn, you turned out to be a fool. Forget it, I'll spare your life!"
As they spoke, they returned to the crowd and announced loudly: "Listen, in five days, you must pay 500 copper coins, otherwise, no one in your village will survive!"
When everyone heard this, they were trembling with fear. Five hundred copper coins, where could they get so much money?
But no one dared to speak, no one dared to make a sound.
A bandit yelled, "Did you hear that? Just five days! Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude!"
After the lecture, he waved his hand and said, "Let's go! Let's go to another village!"
As they spoke, the bandits left in a mighty procession.
As soon as the villagers saw them go far away, they immediately fell into chaos.
Everyone felt like an ant on a hot pan, not knowing how to escape this disaster.
Five hundred copper coins, that's not a small amount! They usually live on growing a little food, where can they get so much money!
But if they can't pay the money by then, the whole village will probably be destroyed.
Everyone had a look of sorrow on their face, but they were helpless.
Zhou Bin finally ate and drank his fill, and his mind finally became a little clearer.
At this time, Liu Shouxian looked at him with despair in his tone: "Young man, when you are full, just leave. You can't stay here."
Zhou Bin was stunned: "Uncle, why can't you stay? Is it because I ate too much?"
"No, no, these steamed breads are not good things. You can eat as much as you want. But our village is facing a disaster now. If you don't leave, you will suffer as well."
Zhou Bin was even more curious: "Uncle, what happened to our village? What happened?"
Liu Shouxian sighed: "Alas! You just saw it. Those bandits asked us for money. If we didn't have any, they would kill all of us in the village."
Zhou Bin was stunned after hearing this. What? In broad daylight, there is such a thing?
Not only do you ask people for money, you also want to kill them all. Isn't this worse than animals?
"Uncle, what do those people do? Why do they ask us for money?" Zhou Bin couldn't help but ask.
Liu Shouxian said with a depressed look on his face: "They are from the Green Wolf Gang, the bully here, controlling more than a dozen villages. We have to pay tribute to them after a while. If we don't pay, they will come to the village to kill people. They are very fierce."
Zhou Bin said in disbelief: "Is there such a thing? Is there still any law?"
Liu Shouxian smiled bitterly: "Where is the law? It's not easy for ordinary people like us to survive now. There are warriors everywhere outside, and they are even more ferocious!"
When Zhou Bin heard the word "warrior", his mind suddenly seemed to remember something, and he seemed to be a warrior.
But he had forgotten all the details and had to ignore it for the time being.
Zhou Bin continued to ask: "Uncle, how much do they want?"
"Five hundred copper coins! Where can we get so much money?" Liu Shouxian couldn't help but sigh.
Others also gathered around and talked about the difficulties in their lives.
One of the young men said loudly: "I think we should fight them. Living like this is too cowardly!"
When Liu Shouxian heard this, he immediately shook his head: "How can we fight them? They are murderers without blinking an eye. We are just ordinary people, so we are just looking for death!"
When the young man heard this, he immediately said angrily: "I don't care! I just can't stand them, I want to fight them!"
Everyone around advised the young man not to be impulsive, saying that they were no match for the other person.
Zhou Bin took a look at the young man. He was tall and strong, with a childish face, and looked like a well-mannered young man.
Zhou Bin smiled and asked, "Brother, what's your name?"
The young man said in a muffled voice: "My name is Liu Hu, and everyone calls me Ah Hu."
Zhou Bin smiled and said, "Ah Hu, those people kill people without blinking an eye. If you go alone, won't you be asking for death?"
Ah Hu looked unconvinced: "I can't stand being bullied by them every year!"
Zhou Bin turned around and asked everyone: "Fellow villagers, why don't you run away? If you run away, they won't be able to find you."
A bearded man immediately responded, "We want to run, but who dares? If we run out of our village and are caught, we will be beaten to death. We absolutely dare not go out."
Zhou Bin was very surprised: "What kind of rule is this? How can you treat everyone like this?"
