When he reappeared before everyone, he had a very handsome face. If his facial features were a little softer, he would definitely be a stunning beauty.
The other person stared at Li Ke meaningfully for a while before walking away with his gun. Niu Dazhuang glared at the other person's back and reminded Li Ke, "Be careful later. I have a feeling this guy has bad intentions."
All the supplies used for the trade had been sent up the mountain, and the robbers then made further demands: "Take off all your weapons and backpacks, and you can't take these things with you."
The officer frowned and said, "Our backpacks contain our rations, and we also have so many hostages to take care of. Please don't go too far."
The other party laughed shamelessly, "This is your own business. Figure it out yourselves. Don't tell us. If you don't do as we say, then you can all stay here."
The officer gritted his teeth and ordered everyone to hand over their weapons and personal belongings as requested by the other side.
It wasn't completely over yet; the other party started pointing things out to them again: "This one, this one, and this one... leave these people with us, one person for one backpack, you can take thirty backpacks."
Before the officer could speak, Niu Dazhuang, his face grim, asked, "What if we don't switch?"

Li Ke raised his hand and gripped the muzzle of the other party's gun: "We'll go with you. We believe you're willing to exchange hostages because you don't want things to get too ugly with us. If you go any further and it comes to a fight to the death, even if you have the most powerful weapons, you won't be able to live a carefree life on this land."
The other person stared at Li Ke for a while, then put away his gun and laughed, "I like listening to beautiful people talk. Now come with us."
Niu Dazhuang hurriedly spoke up, "Take me with you too. He's my brother in life and death. We'll never be separated."
