Lu Qingyan, dressed in fine clothes, seemed to have "I'm a fat sheep" written all over her face. Then she quickly encountered the first person who had designs on her.
Before she could even relax for long, a large group of tall bandits rushed down the mountain, chanting the classic line: "This mountain is mine, this tree is mine, if you want to pass through, leave your money to buy your life."
Lu Qingyan stroked her chin and smiled with her eyes narrowed. She had seen quite a few robberies, and several times they had simply wiped people out.
This time, she wanted to try a different approach.
After a short while, the bandits were all dead. Lu Qingyan stepped on the chest of the bandit leader with a thick beard, squeezed the money bag he had looted, and said with a look of disgust, "Sigh, you guys are supposed to be the kings of this mountain, how come you only have so little wealth? You bandits are really terrible."
The bandit leader, whose arm and jaw had been severed, whimpered, regretting that he hadn't checked the almanac before leaving home. He wondered which bandit gang he had run into, as all his brothers had fallen into her hands.
Lu Qingyan clicked her tongue twice. "This isn't enough to compensate for my losses. Why don't you help me think of a better solution?"
The bandit leader was almost in tears. He was just a mountain bandit; what could he do?
"Why don't you take me to your mountain stronghold? I don't think you can come up with any good ideas either. Why don't I go with you to discuss it?" Lu Qingyan said with a smile, pinching the bandit leader's other relatively intact arm, leaving no room for refusal. Who knows what she was up to?
"This is a raid on our old hideout! But we dare not refuse!" the bandit leader sobbed.
Even a bandit like him felt ashamed of himself for going to such lengths.
When Lu Qingyan arrived, she realized it seemed like a pretty good place. Hmm, she was going to be a bandit leader, robbing the rich to help the poor. No, she was going to rob the rich to help the poor.
Yunzhou.
Not long after, the Lu family received a letter from the eldest son who had run away from home.
Concerned for her son's safety, Lu Zhizhi hurriedly opened the letter, which contained only a few words.
"Respectfully yours, Father and Grandmother, your dearest grandson has recently found someone to take me in. They are willing to provide food and lodging, and there are maids and servants to serve me. Everything is fine, so don't worry."
Lu Qingyan's letter was quite cheesy, and she shuddered after writing it.
Lu Zhizhi's face darkened after reading it. How could his son be so lucky to be provided with food, lodging, and servants? What kind of ability did his son have to deserve such treatment?
It's not that he looks down on his son; it's just that after so many years together, some of his views have become deeply ingrained.
For some reason, Lu Zhizhi had a feeling that her son had encountered a swindler and that he might have been scammed.
Or is someone deliberately setting a trap to frame me through my son?
Lu Zhizhi started speculating about conspiracies and investigated recent events again, actually finding a problem, but it was resolved immediately.
Thinking about his son's letter, he still found one thing puzzling: why was the handwriting on the letter not done with a brush, but rather looked like charcoal? And why was the paper made of sheepskin? It seemed so unreliable. Or was his son suffering somewhere?
After receiving the letter, Lu Zhizhi was not relieved, but even more worried. However, Lu Qingyan did not mention where he was, and Lu Zhizhi did not know where to look for him.
Regarding the issue of paper and pens, Lu Qingyan expressed her frustration. She had searched the entire mountain but couldn't find any ink, paper, or writing materials. She was truly poor.
Yes, I should prepare more of these commonly used items in my space in the future.
Former bandit leader: If we weren't poor, so many people wouldn't have become outlaws.
The current bandit leader, Lu Qingyan, is eager to get started: This king will work hard to build a prosperous stronghold and become the leader in the bandit world!
(Applause: Hooray!)
