What a familiar recipe!
Isn’t this the classic line from the bandit robbery scenes in TV dramas?
The other bandits cooperated by raising their machetes and staring fiercely at the exile team.
Seeing this, the prisoners were a little frightened and screamed, covering the empty bags on their backs.
"Ah, bandits! We encountered bandits!"
"Ahhh! What should I do? Sirs, help me!"
"Wow, even though every day is so hard and painful, I still want to live!"
"Woo woo woo, now I feel that eating steamed bread every day is not so hard."
......
The prisoners ran away with their heads covered, which made the masked men laugh.
"Brother, look at how miserable they are."
"Yes, yes, hahahaha, he, they, are, very, very afraid of me, our, big, big brother."
"Humph, of course. They must be scared to death when they see the big swords we are holding. They are really useless, hahahaha."
Seeing the prisoners panicking, running around with their heads in their hands, screaming and some even wet their pants in fear, the officers were so angry that they whipped them hard.
"Run, run, run! Why are you running? You have nothing on you. Even if we search your whole body, you can't find a single penny. Are you afraid of being robbed by bandits? Bandits are the ones who are afraid of you!"
Hey, the officers were right!
Those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. They don't have any valuables on them. If they are worried, it is the officials and the prisoners who carry silver on their bodies!
They don't have a single penny on them, and at most they have a few hard steamed buns that they have saved up, so what are they afraid of!
After thinking about it this way, most of the prisoners felt a little more at ease and were no longer as panicked as before. They huddled behind the officers and looked at the masked men.
Wang Datou, Meng Liang and other officials stood in front of the team. Wang Datou drew his sword and pointed the tip of the sword at the masked men. He said contemptuously, "Do you know who we are?"
"I don't know. This can't be eaten. We know what you are doing!" The leading man rolled his eyes at Wang Datou.
"Humph!" Wang Datou snorted coldly. "Did you see the official uniforms we are wearing? We are officials appointed by the current emperor to escort prisoners. You want to rob us, but you don't even know who we are! Do you want to die if you dare to rob the emperor? I advise you to get out of the way quickly, otherwise, don't blame us for being rude."
"Officials, officers!" one of the stuttering men repeated, his eyes wide open, a look of fear on his face. He looked at the leading man and stammered, "Boss, they are officers. Should we retreat?"
Several other masked men also looked at the leading man.
"Let's retreat! We are all starving to death. No matter who they are, let's survive first!" The leading man turned around and spoke to his men in a voice he thought was small.
Seeing this, Feng Jiuyan understood everything.
These guys are complete impostors. The bandits who cooperated with Huawu Village were not them at all.
After Feng Jiuyan confirmed their identities, he no longer wanted to stand on the shaft and watch, so he sat on the shaft directly, with his legs dangling in the air, swinging his legs leisurely.
Seeing Feng Jiuyan's leisurely and relaxed state of mind, Song Ning's tense heart also relaxed a little for some reason.
"Sister Feng, why do I feel that those bandits are a little weird? It seems like they are not real bandits, but more like... they are," Song Ning frowned, trying hard to think of words to describe them.
"They are refugees." Feng Jiuyan said calmly.
"Yes! They are refugees! At least they don't look like real bandits. Their eyes don't look as fierce as those of bandits." Song Ning nodded vigorously, completely agreeing with Feng Jiuyan's guess.
She was a little curious, "But, Sister Feng, how did you make sure they were not bandits?"
Hearing this, Song Chen looked at Feng Jiuyan with some curiosity, wanting to hear her speculation.
After all, it was Feng Jiuyan who said it. If she said that the masked men were not real bandits but refugees, then they must be refugees.
"Look," Feng Jiuyan pointed at a few places with his hand, "the masked men in front are wearing patched clothes, and they walk unsteadily, obviously they have been hungry for several days. Finally, look at their eyes, after hearing that they are officials, some of them began to retreat.
Real bandits don’t care whether the other party is an official or a civilian. Their goal is to rob things, and they don’t care who the person being robbed is. If they were really that afraid of trouble, they wouldn’t have become bandits. ”
"Yes, yes, Sister Feng is absolutely right. I was saying that when I saw them, I wasn't afraid at all. So that's how it is!"
The prisoners who were huddled beside the donkey cart of Feng Jiuyan's family also heard the conversation between Feng Jiuyan and Song Ning. They patted their chests and breathed a sigh of relief, no longer as nervous as before.
They had some silver on them, and they were originally walking in front of the team. However, after a few masked men jumped out from the side of the road, they were afraid that their silver would be stolen, so they secretly took advantage of the chaos to run to the back of the team.
Considering that Feng Jiuyan was very skilled, they simply gathered around Feng Jiuyan's donkey cart. They thought that Feng Jiuyan's family had a donkey cart, and the bandits would definitely notice the donkey cart first. They would probably be busy searching the donkey cart and ignore them, so they could probably escape and keep the silver on them.
Therefore, some prisoners gathered around the donkey cart of Feng Jiuyan's family.
In front, the masked man who led the group took a horse stance and waved the machete in his hand. "If you know what's best for you, hand over the valuables on you. Otherwise, don't blame us for being rude!"
He moved too quickly and his lower body was unstable, so his body was shaky.
The subordinates behind the masked leader also echoed, "There are still some food! Hand it over, or I'll make you pay!"
"Yes, yes, eat, hand over what you eat. Otherwise, I'll make you pay!"
Several people also followed the masked leader's example and took a horse stance, swinging their swords vigorously. The movement was too fast and too strong, and one of the masked men stumbled forward. Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough and stuck the sword in his hand into the ground, barely stabilizing himself.
This caused the prisoners to burst into laughter, and the tense atmosphere just now disappeared without a trace.
"Hahaha, you dare to imitate others and become a bandit? Go back home and don't come out and make a fool of yourself."
"Haha, I'm so happy. I thought I was going to die today. I didn't expect a bunch of fake people to come."
“Haha, go home and practice before you go out and rob, or you’ll be laughed at.”
"Brother, go back quickly. Your mother is calling you to come home for dinner."
