Chapter 57: I'll give you two options



But since he was rescued, why did he bring him home?

It doesn't look like his daughter/sister's style.

The two couldn't help but look at Ji Xun twice more.

Well~ he is tall, but looks a bit thin, even weaker than them, how can this work!

Shen Yu'an walked to the ox cart, took down two steamed buns from it, took his water bag, added a little water into it, and handed it to Ji Xun.

Ji Xun thanked him and took it and started eating it in big mouthfuls.

I haven’t eaten for two days, and now even dry steamed buns taste so good.

"I'll explain his matter in the morning. I'll take a rest first." Shen Yu'an said.

After running for so long tonight and seeing those people's 'snacks', she was exhausted both physically and mentally.

Shen Rong looked at her distressedly and said, "Okay, go to sleep quickly. When Master Ji finishes eating, let him lie down with us and sleep for a while."

Early the next morning, people woke up one after another.

I got enough rest yesterday, so I wasn’t that sleepy this morning.

Shen Yu'an also opened his eyes after hearing the noise. Although he had only rested for less than four hours, he was not that tired.

As soon as everyone woke up, they saw the extra Ji Xun.

Ji Xun greeted them politely one by one. He didn't know who was who yet, so he could only guess their ages and call them by name.

Shen Rong explained to everyone that this person was rescued from the bandits by Shen Yu'an last night, and asked them to make an extra portion when making breakfast.

So as soon as everyone saw Shen Yu'an wake up, they came to ask out of curiosity.

"Sister, who is he?" Shen Sanlang came up and asked.

Shen Yu'an then told her everything she could about how she went out to gather information yesterday and how she brought Ji Xun back.

Then he continued, "Master Ji said that he and his servants have separated. It just so happens that he is going to the south as well. We will give him a ride and he will give us the 'escort fee' when we get there."

After saying that, Shen Yu'an looked at Ji Xun with a smile and asked, "Isn't that what I said, Master Ji?"

Ji Xun looked at Shen Yu'an's kind smile and didn't dare to say no.

He said in a gentle voice: "Miss Shen saved me from the robbers and it was a great favor. I will definitely reward you handsomely when we get to the south."

The others' smiles became more genuine after hearing these words.

It’s just bringing one more person. As long as the money is in place, everything will be fine.

After breakfast, someone came to ask when the Shen family left.

Seeing that the Shen family did not leave, they did not dare to move, for fear that they would encounter robbers again and no one would protect them.

Shen Yu'an couldn't stand their behavior of seeking protection.

Among the people in Shenjia Village, excluding children and the elderly, about 60% to 70% are men. However, they only want to follow them and seek protection without improving themselves.

After all, being forced to protect others is really unpleasant.

Shen Yu'an's face turned cold. Originally, she planned to find a time to take her family to wipe out the bandit's nest.

She looked at the Shenjia Village team of more than a hundred men. It would be a pity not to use such good manpower.

Shen Yu'an asked the Shen family to gather together and talked about what they had found out last night.

Hearing that the robbers actually used human flesh as a reward, everyone felt a chill in their hearts.

"What should we do? All the roads are blocked by their people. We can't go around the mountain. Can we fly over there?" Old Mrs. Shen said worriedly.

The others were also feeling a little depressed and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Shen Rong suddenly asked, "An'an, did you see how many of them there were last night? If there weren't many of them, we could just kill them all. We could get through without them harming other people."

The others also looked at Shen Yu'an inquiringly.

They are no longer the people who were not moved by knives. Didn’t you see that all those who came to cause trouble a few days ago were dealt with by them?

Shen Yu'an looked at his family members who were eager to try, and his eyes twitched uncontrollably.

Did she lead them astray?

However, Shen Yu'an still said: "It is estimated that there are 70 to 80 people, and that is their territory. We will definitely not be their opponents if we go there."

What Shen Yu'an said was a bit exaggerated. She could beat him up, but then she wouldn't be able to take care of everyone in the Shen family.

She was unwilling to let them exchange injuries for injuries and let the people of Shenjia Village reap the benefits.

So... Shen Yu'an cast his gaze towards the people from Shenjia Village who were waiting for them to take action and leave with them not far away.

It can also be considered as training them, so that after they go their separate ways, there won't be so many people like weak chickens, becoming food for others.

A plan slowly formed in her mind.

She whispered her plan.

The Shen family's eyes lit up, right! Why didn't they expect there were so many people here?

Including them, wouldn’t the number of people be more than those robbers?

Shen Yu'an did not plan to stay here for too long.

That group of people already knew of their existence, and if they didn't see them passing by, they might think of this place.

At that time, they would be passive, so it would be better for them to take the initiative.

The Shen family stood up and walked towards the people from Shen Village who were resting not far away.

Seeing them coming, Shen Lizheng stood up with a smile and asked, "Brother Xingde, are we planning to set off?"

"This is Master Ji who escaped from the robbers yesterday. He said that the robbers have people lying in ambush on every road. If we leave now, we will be like sheep walking into the tiger's mouth." Shen Yu'an said loudly.

Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, the crowd started to make a noise.

"What should we do? Why don't we go back? We can't beat those robbers."

However, someone else said, "Shen's girl, we saw it all yesterday. Your family is very powerful. Why don't you kill those robbers first and then let us live."

Shen Yu'an's face turned cold. He thought that they should just be left alone to fend for themselves.

Shen Yu'an said coldly: "Oh, what are you thinking about!"

"Now I only give you two choices. Either you come with us to kill those robbers, or you figure out a solution on your own."

"To tell you the truth, we are a small family, so we can leave secretly if we want..."

After hearing this, some people were not happy. "How can you be so naive and vicious? We are all from the same village, why did you leave us behind?"

Shen Yu'an didn't want to say more to them. Such shameless people would only be scared by her and would not dare to come out and cause trouble again.

Shen Yuan looked at the man who had come forward, walked over in two or three steps, dragged him out, put the knife to his face, looked at the people of Shenjia Village coldly and said, "It seems that everyone thinks what he said is okay, so let's just regard it as him choosing the second path for you."
