"Chief, why is there suddenly no water?"
"Water is free!"
"You bunch of bastards, all you do all day is eat, eat, eat. You don't even know how to go out and rob someone. A few years ago, we had grain to brew wine, but now we don't even have porridge to drink."
"If you keep eating like this and still want to drink water, you'll be starving from now on."
In Pig Cage Village, a somewhat plump woman stepped down from a bamboo house.
"But there are no caravans coming to the Lüliang Mountains right now, so how can we rob them?"
Ah Xing stood in front of the empty water tank and retorted.
"Can't you find a way if there are no caravans?" The woman put her hands on her hips, pointed at the people in the village, and cursed angrily: "You are all pig-headed bastards. There are no caravans in Lüliang Mountain. Don't you know to go out and rob people?"
“I’m telling you, from now on, you’ll drink water on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, and go hungry on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. If you want to eat, you’ll have to pay up, or you bunch of bastards will starve to death.”
"Good morning, Chieftain!"
A laborer carrying logs passed by and greeted her.
When the woman saw him, she cursed, "What the hell are you? All you do all day is chop up those few pieces of wood. If you have the energy, why don't you go farm? All you do is study wood. You'll work yourself to death, you bastard."
The laborer, too afraid to utter a sound after being scolded, silently passed by her.
"Oh, chieftain, don't be like that. He was just greeting you."
Beside the coolie, an old man with delicate fingers, stood up for him and tried to persuade him.
"Pah!"
When the woman saw him, she showed disgust on her face and spat on the ground: "You damn eunuch, you son of a bitch, your mouth and ass are both loose, you can't even keep your farts shut. Why are you meddling in other people's business? Why don't you go sell your ass?"
"Waaaaah, you're so mean!"
The old man twisted his body, sobbing as he ran to a corner, covered his face and cried, his round buttocks sticking out, looking somewhat alluring.
"Damn eunuch, you son of a bitch, your ass is all exposed."
The woman launched into a tirade of curses at the villagers, so much so that none of the bandits dared to meet her gaze, which finally made her feel much better.
Just as I was about to go back to the bamboo house to sleep, I saw Ah Xing still standing in front of the water vat, lost in thought.
The woman stepped forward and slapped him: "Damn it, don't think I won't hit you just because you're handsome."
After finishing, the woman was finally satisfied and prepared to go back to sleep for a while. Before she even went upstairs, she heard a voice as hoarse as a gong shouting.
"Chief, chief, a caravan is coming! A caravan is coming!"
Eagle Eye came running from outside the stronghold, shouting as he ran, "Brothers, we've got a job! A caravan is coming! A caravan is coming!"
Upon hearing this, everyone in Pig Cage Village had their eyes light up.
The woman strode over, grabbed Hawkeye, and said fiercely, "Are you sure you didn't see wrong?"
"Alas, chieftain, you may doubt my mind, but you cannot doubt my eyes."
"My nickname is Hawkeye, how could I be wrong?"
Hawkeye proudly pointed to his eyes and said, "I have my left eye looking at the sky, my right eye looking at the ground, and an eye on my backside keeping watch. How could I possibly be wrong?"
woman:……
"No, who's got a screw loose and assigned Hawkeye to keep watch?"
"Chief, it's me."
Ah Xing stepped forward: "I believe that all people are born equal. We cannot look down on him just because he has poor eyesight, so I arranged for him to be on guard duty."
"As it turns out, my decision was correct..."
The woman slapped him across the face: "Straight my ass! If I hadn't seen the caravan, you two would have been waiting to die."
Seeing that she didn't believe him, Eagle Eye said pitifully, "It really is a caravan, and it looks like a big fish. Chieftain, you have to believe me. Why would I lie to my brothers?"
The woman was skeptical, but her eyes darted around before she turned to Ah Xing and said, "Ah Xing, since it was your idea, then you take the brothers and go catch that big fish for me."
"Once we bring him back, the position of chieftain will be yours."
Ah Xing nodded: "Yes, I promise to bring back the fat sheep."
After saying this, he turned to the others in the village and shouted, "Brothers, whether we get to eat or not depends on today! Grab your weapons—rob us!"
A group of people, howling and screaming like ghosts, carrying pots, pans, bowls, and wooden sticks, set off from Pig Cage Mountain Village, ready to pull off a big heist.
After a while, they arrived at the location Eagle Eye had described and saw the so-called "fat sheep".
"See, I wasn't wrong, these people look very rich."
Eagle Eye pointed to the two thousand elite soldiers resting at the foot of the mountain and said, "Look at their armor, the swords at their waists, and the tall horses they ride. You can tell at a glance that they are a big fat sheep."
"Ah Xing, let's pull off a heist, and we won't have to worry about food and drink for years."
Ah Xing looked at the old, weak, sick, and disabled behind him, then at the excited Hawkeye, and after a moment of silence, he said, "Yeah, I feel like after we pull off this job, we won't just be set for life for a few years, we'll be set for life."
Upon hearing this, Hawkeye scratched his head and said, "Ah Xing, it seems we're thinking about the same thing."
"You give the order, and the brothers will rush down and tie up these fat sheep immediately."
Before Ah Xing could speak, the soldiers at the foot of the mountain had already mounted their horses and were preparing to leave.
Upon seeing this, Eagle Eye quickly jumped out and rushed down the mountain, fearing that these people would escape.
