Upon hearing this, the bandits were immediately tempted and began to rub their hands together in anticipation.
Using this woman as a stepping stone on their life's journey is indeed quite suitable.
Looking at the crowd that was as excited as if it had been injected with chicken blood, Luo Xi remained calm and even had the leisure to talk to Jiu Xian Xiao Yi.
"How about the three of us have a contest? The winner will get 100,000 taels of silver."
"What a great thing!" Xiao Yi eagerly replied, "Of course I'll oblige."
A person who is too poor can't stand the thought of money, even though he has no chance of winning.
Jiuxian, however, was disdainful and coldly suggested, "Instead of money, how about ten matches?"
Loxi was stunned; he really couldn't stop talking about competition: "Fine!"
Just then, a dense horde of bandits arrived. Luo Xi straightened her expression, raised her knife, and instantly, heads fell to the ground like dumplings being dropped into a pot, rolling away into the distance.
In the blink of an eye, several corpses and heads with their eyes still wide open appeared in front of Luo Xi.
Seeing their leader so brave, the others cheered so loudly it almost pierced the sky, and each one, not wanting to be outdone, began to charge left and right.
Having been bandits for many years, they had experienced countless battles, both big and small. Now, with their sharp weapons, they were practically divinely aided.
As for the Red Mansion assassins, needless to say, such a ragtag group is like chicks in their eyes, easy to kill one or even two at a time, and boring.
With only a few hundred men, they quickly decimated the Allied forces of tens of thousands.
"Boss, let's run! That woman Luo Xi is too ruthless!" A henchman said in terror, shrinking into a ball behind Boss Zhao.
They're good at bullying ordinary people, but when it comes to fighting these murderous maniacs, forget it.
"Escape? Impossible." Chief Zhao's eyes were bloodshot, and he seemed somewhat delirious.
"There are so many of us, and she only has so many. We'll grind her down until she's dead."
"Charge! There are dozens of us against one of them. One kick from each of us and we can crush him into mincemeat."
Henchman: "..."
Theirs is a diamond drill, yours is just some broken rubble.
How many diamonds can be worn away by a lot of rubble?
Ignoring the indignant shouts of Boss Zhao, the henchmen quietly moved away step by step and soon disappeared into the woods.
There were quite a few people who shared his thoughts. They didn't have much of a grudge against Luo Xi and just wanted to take advantage of the chaos at Chaoyang Manor to make some money.
Now not only have the benefits vanished, but there's also the possibility of losing one's life. Yet, ghosts are still willing to rush forward; they're not stupid.
In just a short while, most of the bandits in the valley had fled.
By the time Chief Zhao realized what was happening, there were only a few people left around him. Of course, many had been killed by Luo Xi and his men.
"Hahaha..." Chief Zhao laughed maniacally: "Luo Xi, don't be so smug. Do you think you're invincible just because you can beat all of us?"
"Don't dream. The Yunqi Dynasty is in power now. If you become an outlaw, you're rebelling against them. One day, the court will deal with you."
After he finished speaking, he cleanly and decisively slit his own throat.
Other bandits: "..."
Damn it, you've got your satisfaction, but what about us?
They looked at each other, then knelt down on the ground in perfect unison.
"Greetings, Chief Luo. Do you need any underlings to serve you?"
They were all looking on expectantly.
Rosie: "..."
"Take them all back and use them as laborers; just make sure they don't starve."
The resort is really missing this.
The bandits immediately looked miserable. That damned Zhao Kuo had really screwed them over.
If you want to die, just say so. You could have given them a heads-up and they wouldn't have come.
Well, he didn't even get to enjoy his good days for long before he's being treated like a slave.
Compared to these bandits who were almost completely wiped out, Luo Xi's side fared much better, with only a few seriously injured and no one dead, though there were more minor injuries.
Seeing such impressive results, they were instantly excited, including the men in black from the Red Mansion.
"Chaoyang Manor is mighty! Chief Luo is mighty!"
"Chaoyang Manor is mighty! Chief Luo is mighty!"
Losi was infected by their emotions, and she couldn't stop smiling.
"Everyone did a great job today. After we clean up the mess, let's have a good meal to celebrate."
Upon hearing about the delicious food, everyone became even more excited, jumping around like monkeys, eager to do things.
Everything that happened here was reported to the prefectural governor's office within a few days.
"What did you say? That female bandit leader was surrounded by all the bandits, but she still managed to defeat them?" Du Hong's eyes widened, thinking he had misheard.
"Yes, yes, sir," the constable stammered. "Ever since Luo Xi issued the challenge, all the major mountain strongholds have gathered together to prepare to besiege Chaoyang Manor."
"Unexpectedly, they were ambushed by Rosie and her men on the way, and they were routed immediately, with many people dying."
Du Hong's expression was rather unpleasant.
He never expected that an ant he looked down upon could do something so shocking.
wrong.
Du Hong seemed to remember something and quickly asked, "Did Jiu Xian from the Red Mansion also bring people along?"
"Yes, sir. The news says that at least a hundred people from the Red Mansion went there, each one highly skilled in martial arts and exuding a murderous aura."
Du Hong felt a sense of relief, and his earlier wariness of Luo Xi lessened considerably: "I knew it! How powerful could a mere young woman be? Turns out she has a lover backing her up."
Who is the character Jiu Xian from the Dream of the Red Chamber?
Even the imperial court was wary of him, let alone these ragtag troops made up of peasants.
