Suddenly, the horse neighed and snorted, refusing to move forward!
Qingchan looked out through the gap in the window curtains and saw that two tall and handsome horses were lying across the road in front of them!
In an instant, more than a hundred people rushed out from the woods on both sides!
The man on the tall and handsome horse shouted loudly,
"Who are you? Tell me your name!"
Song Kui patted Li's hand gently, told her not to worry, and got off the carriage first.
In the last carriage were two people pretending to be servants.
When had they ever seen such a scene? Although they were already terrified, they still forced themselves to get off the carriage and stand behind Song Kui!
As three grown men, they would definitely not let the four girls get off the carriage. These people were clearly bandits!
Song Kui cupped his fists, facing the tall and handsome horse, and introduced himself:
"Master, I am from Tongcheng County, Xuzhou Prefecture. I am on my way home. I hope you can be flexible!
We'll be arriving in Tongcheng soon, and I have some loose change here. Could you please take the brothers for a cup of tea?"
The man on the tall and handsome horse laughed loudly upon hearing this and said:
"Oh, he's a capable guy!"
He nodded, and a burly man came forward and took the purse that Song Kui was holding in his hand.
Song Kui bowed his body and said with a smile: "In this case, I will not disturb the boss and go to the brothers. Song is leaving!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the bandits surrounding him from all sides burst into laughter.
The man on the tall and handsome horse, whip in hand, rode forward, holding the purse in his hand, and said, "When did I say I would let you go?
You are just a countryman, but you own four carriages, which shows that you are quite wealthy.
But you only give us brothers such a small amount of money, isn't that unreasonable?"
Upon hearing this, Song Kui smiled flatteringly and said, "It's not that there was a disaster at home. I've been away for more than a month and only have this little money left. I hope the master will be lenient with me."
The man on the horse, holding a whip, raised his arm and pointed in the direction of the two carriages in the middle, and asked:
"What's in those two carriages, or who's sitting in them?
You are not as honest as you look!"
Song Kui looked up at the carriage and immediately a layer of sweat broke out on his forehead.
He didn't dare to imagine what would happen if a weak woman like his benefactor fell into the hands of such a group of bandits who robbed and looted!
Song Kui wiped his sweat with his hand and shook his head:
“There wasn’t anyone inside, just some pots and pans, and other things you’d need to escape!
If the boss wants money, Song can give the two carriages to him. You can use them or sell them. It’s up to you.”
The man who was called the boss snorted coldly, turned over and jumped off the horse, and went straight towards the two carriages!
When Song Kui saw this, he wanted to stop them again, but he was held on both sides by two people and could not move!
By this time, Si Jinxing had already seen the situation outside clearly through the window curtains.
Some of the people pouring out held knives, some held torches, and some carried hoes and shoulder poles...
She suddenly remembered that when she was leaving Jianzhou City, the man named Xue Yong seemed to have mentioned: There was a possibility that some villagers would become bandits!
Could it be that his words were going to come true?
Seeing the man approaching the carriage, the four "coachmen", including Bai Xi, immediately stepped forward and protected Si Jinxing's carriage behind them.
When the man saw it, he felt that there must be rare treasures in the carriage!
He shouted coldly and swung the whip in his hand towards Bai Xi!
Bai Xi could certainly dodge the whip, but if he did, Song Kui's identity would be in doubt.
Just when the whip was about to touch Bai Xi's shoulder, with a "whoosh" sound, an extremely thin silver needle shot straight towards him and actually knocked the whip off the mark!
Seeing this, the man turned his head to look at the person on the tall and handsome horse behind him and said, "Brother! Why are you stopping me? There must be treasures in this carriage!"
Si Jinxing glanced sideways and saw through the gap in the curtains a silver needle embedded in the window frame.
She was shocked. How much strength must have been exerted between the fingers of the person who shot the silver needle?
But at this moment, a deep male voice came:
"Second brother, don't do anything stupid. There is no treasure in the carriage."
He changed the subject and continued:
"I wonder who's sitting inside? They didn't even get out of the carriage. Isn't that a disrespect to our brothers in Yunshan Village?"
A powerful voice came, Qing Chan frowned slightly, then nodded to Si Jinxing.
This person is highly skilled in martial arts, but he is no match for Qing Chan, not to mention Bai Xi Mo Qiu and others outside!
The man called Lao Er, standing outside the carriage, echoed:
"Everyone inside, listen carefully, we in Yunshan Village have always only been seeking wealth!
If you still refuse to change your ways, we brothers can still ask for something else! Don't blame us for being rude then!"
As he spoke, he wanted to reach out and push the carriage open, but was stopped by the "coachman" next to the carriage!
At the same time, a cold female voice came from the carriage, saying:
"Your Excellency, please do not hesitate."
Si Jinxing put on her veiled hat and got off the carriage with Qingchan. Zisu and Song Xiner also got off from the carriage behind.
She raised her head and said to the man hidden in the darkness in the distance:
"Boss, my uncle has already given the little money he has left to your second-in-command. What else do you want?"
The head lord rode forward a few steps, looking down at the woman, but did not answer her. Instead, he said:
"I wonder if any of these girls can practice medicine?"
