Chapter 212 Discussion
San Ya felt a little complicated. Although these people did bad things, they still maintained some bottom line.
"Okay, go ahead."
Sanya gave the remaining cakes to Shizi and said, "Remember, don't tell anyone else that we talked about this."
Shizi nodded and carefully hid the cake in his arms, keeping his mouth tightly shut as if afraid of being discovered by others.
After Shizi left, San Ya told her family the news she had heard.
"More than a hundred people."
Su Wenbin frowned, and immediately felt something was wrong in his heart. He spoke very quickly, "It seems that the situation is more serious than expected."
"Everyone from the five villages has fled to the mountains to become bandits." Feng Lan sighed. Xin Moming Duoduo felt a little melancholy and couldn't help sighing, "How desperate this must be."
"Then can we really leave tomorrow?" Chen Kangbo asked worriedly, without much warmth in his eyes.
"It should be possible."
Chen Ya frowned slightly, feeling particularly uneasy. She said, "That boss seems quite trustworthy."
"I hope so."
Feng Lan still felt a little uneasy, always feeling that things would not be so simple, and that more things seemed to be happening.
The next morning, the fake monk came as expected. He really kept his promise and especially did not make things difficult for them.
"Get ready and take you down the mountain."
He spoke in a very calm tone, without much warmth in his eyes, he just said it silently.
Feng Lan shook her head, feeling somewhat helpless, and then she spoke another sentence.
"We're not leaving."
The fake monk was stunned, as if he couldn't believe it, and even a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"Why?"
Some people can't go out if they want to, and what's more, if we offer to let them go now, they don't want to go.
"I want to meet your boss." Feng Lan said calmly.
The fake monk's expression changed instantly.
"What do you want to do?"
When Feng Lan heard this, she just curled her lips slightly, and there was not even much warmth in her eyes. She spoke very calmly.
"If I'm here, you won't have to live this life of hiding."
The fake monk turned and walked away without much hesitation. Feng Lan followed him, looking not afraid at all.
The fake monk led her through several corridors, with a look of caution in his eyes.
"Let me remind you."
As he walked, he said, "Our boss has a bad temper."
"I know."
"Aren't you afraid?"
"What's the use of being afraid?"
Feng Lan's expression was remarkably calm, and without much emotion she said calmly, "What is meant to come will eventually come."
The fake monk glanced at her, some words stuck on his lips, but he didn't say anything, just silently looked away.
A dozen burly men stood on both sides, all with fierce expressions.
"The person has been brought here." said the fake monk.
"Um."
A voice came from the front.
Feng Lan looked up and saw a middle-aged man sitting in front of the incense table. He was not tall but very strong. There was a scar on his face that extended from the left corner of his eye to the corner of his mouth.
It seems that he is not someone to be trifled with. The aura emanating from him is so bright that it is hard to ignore.
"You want to see me?" the man asked, a hint of doubt in his eyes. His voice was rough and carried obvious murderous intent.
"Yes." Feng Lan answered calmly.
"Very courageous."
The man sneered, even with a hint of contempt, "Tell me, what's the solution?"
"You're not the boss."
The man's expression changed, and his brows furrowed subconsciously. "What did you say?"
"I said, you are not the real head of the family."
Feng Lan's tone was calm, and her words were sonorous and powerful. "The real head of the family is somewhere else."
The man stood up.
"How dare you! How dare you question me!"
She pointed deeper into the hall.
"The real head of the family should be behind the screen, right?"
The man's expression became even uglier.
“Nonsense!”
"Whether it's nonsense or not, we'll know when he comes out."
Although Feng Lan's voice was not loud, it was extremely clear and obvious in the empty hall.
"The one behind the screen, now that I've exposed everything, why are you hiding anymore?"
The silence lasted for a long time.
Just when everyone thought Feng Lan had guessed wrong, footsteps were heard from behind the screen, very clear and crisp.
A huge figure appeared at the edge of the screen.
Then, a really big guy came out.
He was at least eight feet tall, with broad shoulders and a thick waist.
His muscles were knotted all over his body, like a human-shaped beast, and the aura he exuded didn't make him seem like someone who was not to be trifled with.
"interesting."
The big man spoke, his voice as deep as thunder.
"After so many years, this is the first time someone can see through my disguise."
The fake boss immediately stepped aside, his face full of awe, not daring to say a word.
"Brother, this woman..."
"Shut up."
The big man waved his hand, and the fake boss immediately stopped talking and stood aside very obediently.
The big man walked up to Feng Lan. There was a huge difference in height between the two.
Feng Lan was like a child in front of him, but her expression remained calm, as if she had seen all kinds of troubles.
"How did you know that?" the big man asked.
"Eyes."
Feng Lan simply replied, "A true head of the family has a different look from his subordinates."
"oh?"
The big man became interested and asked, "Tell me, what's different?"
"There's awe and dependence in the eyes of my subordinates."
Feng Lan's expression was very calm as she explained, "The head of the family's eyes only showed authority and determination."
The big man nodded with a hint of admiration in his eyes.
"I'm curious, how could you, a woman, have the courage to meet me alone?"
"Because I'm sure."
"What do you want to grasp?"
"Make sure you won't kill me."
The big man stopped.
"Why do you say that?"
"Because you need me."
"Need you?"
The big man sneered, his eyes revealing a bit of contempt, and he sneered directly, "Why do I need a woman?"
"Because you are in a very dangerous situation now."
Feng Lan's tone was very calm, and she even began to analyze the current situation. "The government has already noticed this."
The big man's eyes suddenly became sharp.
"How do you know?"
"The governor has sent someone to investigate."
Feng Lan didn't hide anything and directly told the whole story, "I just haven't done anything yet."
"What's the meaning?"
"It means that you don't have much time left."
The big man was silent for a moment, as if he didn't know what to say, and just stood there silently.
"Even so, what can you do to help us?"
"I can help you find a way out."
"What's the way out?"
"Let all of you return to normal life and no longer have to do this risky business." Feng Lan said.
"We are horse bandits!"
