The moment he raised his eyes, countless arrows shot out from the depths of the forest.
“Chirp!”
Xiao Xu reminded the person who was sitting cross-legged at almost the fastest speed.
Perhaps it was its reminder that worked, Shen Yanjin rolled over and cleverly avoided the opponent's bow and arrow, and was not immediately pierced into a sieve.
When the hundred guards saw this scene, they didn't care that they were roasting wild meat, and some even had a few pieces in their mouths.
They drew out their swords, rushed to Shen Yanjin, surrounded him, and faced the pitch-black forest.
Brush...
Hundreds of roughly dressed bandits rushed out of the originally dark and gloomy woods, took out the tinder from their arms, and lit the wooden sticks in their hands.
The surroundings suddenly became bright.
It also allowed Xiao Xu to see what kind of people were being hunted this time.
"Hahaha, good reaction ability, what a pity..."
A strong bandit stepped out of the crowd, crossed his arms over his chest, and glanced up and down at Shen Yanjin as if he was invading him.
Seeing the small thing in his arms, he suddenly raised his eyebrows. He had just seen the boy feeding the bird.
I couldn’t see it clearly at the time and couldn’t tell what it looked like, but now that I see it up close, I feel my throat rolling and my rough hands itching.
Xiao Xu, feeling uncomfortable all over because of being stared at, looked back at the bandit in a strange way.
"head……"
Seeing that his leader was staring at a little bird in the other's arms without saying a word, he called out in surprise.
"Well... I'm not going to be ambiguous. You passed through our Toothless Valley without leaving any money for passage."
Xiao Yan: "..."
Is this a common stalk in time-travel novels?
I opened this mountain and built this road. If you want to pass through here, do you have to leave some money to buy your way through?
Awesome, this is...
"Boy, considering you are from the imperial court, we will not kill you all. As long as you leave behind two carts of goods and a dozen of your subordinates, this matter will be over."
Before Xiao Yu could chirp a few times to express his resistance, Shen Yanjin pinched its beak and said indifferently, "Dream on."
Yes, this is just a fucking dream, don’t even think about it.
He stretched out his wings and touched Shen Yanjin's two fingers, chirping in agreement.
The words were on the tip of a certain chief's tongue, and he was about to say them, but when he saw the little bird lying in the boy's palm.
My brain seemed to be in a mess, and I spoke in confusion:
"If you are not satisfied with this, you can change to something else."
The bandits all turned their eyes to their leader.
Anything else?
Isn’t this what I’ve been chasing you for two days?
Is there something about this young man that is worthy of the leader's love?
"Give me the little thing in your hand, and I'll let you go."
"Boom..."
Someone fell down.
Then someone else screamed, "Boss, stop doing this! Without that pile of goods, we'll have to live frugally for several months!"
The bandits almost wanted to rush over and cover their leader's mouth to prevent him from saying another word.
But do they dare?
I dare not.
The chief is very capable, and once he makes up his mind about something, no one can change his mind even after ten years of hard work.
Xiao Xu's face was full of disbelief, and his round little eyes were fixed on the 'leader' opposite him. If he could speak human language, he really wanted to ask him if he had lost his mind.
"How about this? As long as you agree, I will let you go immediately and I will give up the first condition."
The bandit leader seemed determined to get the little thing, and his eyes occasionally flashed with an incomprehensible light.
