After Song Tantan came out of the room, she found that there was no one upstairs. The people who were fighting had all run downstairs. When she ran to the bottom of the stairs, she saw a group of big men surrounding the living room downstairs.
The group surrounded by them was the second group to check into the inn. All four guards were injured and were protecting the little maid in the middle. The two women disguised as men were also fighting the bandits with swords.
Although the four maids didn't carry any weapons, they seemed to know some martial arts, though their skills weren't very good.
Soon, a fight broke out downstairs again, and the sounds of clashing swords could be heard once more. Song Tantan, holding a large knife, did not immediately go down to help. He had thought the situation would be very bad, but he did not expect that those people were quite skilled and he estimated that they could hold out for a while.
There were seventeen people in total, including the shopkeeper and the bandits, while the group fighting the bandits only had ten people. They were outnumbered, but the guards and two pretty girls were quite skilled in martial arts. If it weren't for the four maids holding them back, they would have subdued the bandits long ago.
Song Tantan felt that even if she didn't take action, her guards could handle the bandits; it was just a matter of time.
Just as they were thinking this, they heard a loud 'boom' from downstairs. It turned out that there was a trap inside the inn. A cage fell from downstairs, trapping several guards and two men dressed as men.
The four maids were outside the cage, while the shopkeeper and his wife came out from behind the counter, laughing triumphantly.
"What should we do with these girls?" one of the burly men asked deliberately, his bull-like eyes greedily fixed on the four women.
"What are you pretending for, Er Mazi? Same old rules, kill the men, enjoy the women first, then kill them." The proprietress flirtatiously tossed her long hair and chuckled in a coquettish voice.
"Hahahaha." The bandits laughed loudly, their expressions lewd and disgusting.
After fighting for so long without a single death, Song Tantan finally realized the problem: the older women with guards were too soft-hearted and dared not kill anyone, which explained why they ended up being captured alive.
A group of bandits, with their pants down, were about to take turns having sex with the four maids on the spot, while the people who were locked up and unable to get out had to watch them do it.
This action was truly malicious.
"Wait a minute, if you want to do anything, ask me first if I agree." Song Tantan stood in the middle of the stairs without coming down, holding a knife and looking down at them as he spoke.
"Why hasn't the shopkeeper dealt with this person?" He should have been drugged by now, since those three clearly ate all the tampered food.
All this nonsense won't get you to the end; you'll only be cannon fodder. Nameless cannon fodder usually die a horrible death. So Song Tantan stopped talking nonsense and suddenly attacked, leaping down and slashing the so-called beautiful proprietress.
This woman is wicked. She actually let others humiliate her and watched with amusement. I should kill her first so I don't have to watch anymore and feel so bad.
While the bandits were still stunned, she swiftly stabbed the innkeeper in the chest. When the sound of her knife being pulled out of the innkeeper's body rang out, the others finally snapped out of their shock. They didn't even bother to put their pants back on, picked up their knives, and rushed towards Song Tantan.
Wow, luckily the ancient people's upper garments were long enough to cover their private parts, otherwise Song Tantan would have gotten a sty.
These dozen or so bandits were quite skilled, and Song Tantan was not having an easy time dealing with them, but she wasn't outmatched either. She was just a little distracted, wondering if there were any other traps or mechanisms inside the inn.
Never mind, it's better to strike first. Song Tantan whistled, and the next moment, several of Taishan's dogs broke in through the window and bit several people in an instant.
Seven of the bandits died instantly. The remaining eight tried to run away, but Song Tantan chased after them and blocked their way. The bandits, their faces grim, raised their knives, intending to die with her. However, before they even got close, they smelled a strange floral fragrance and instantly collapsed to the ground, dead.
The bandits were dealt with, and the seven dogs disappeared like ghosts. Song Tantan ignored them; the dogs wouldn't hurt anyone unless ordered by her and Ye Moxun, unless someone attacked them first.
"Young hero, could you please help us?" The two young ladies who were being held captive called out to Song Tantan.
This person is very strange. He saved them but didn't speak to them. After beating them, he was about to leave, acting as if they didn't exist.
Song Tantan turned around, paused for a moment, and then stepped behind the counter to look for the mechanism. However, after searching for a long time without finding it, she lost patience. "You guys figure it out yourselves. I can't find the mechanism."
Then she cleaved the drawer open with a knife, put all the silver and copper coins inside into her pocket, and then searched the bandits, taking all their valuables.
"So poor, with all of them combined only having three hundred taels of silver, it's pointless to run a black market inn." Song Tantan shook his head and sighed, looking disgusted.
"Young lady, don't go! Get me out of here first. If you help us, we'll reward you handsomely," the young lady dressed as a man called out.
Song Tantan turned around abruptly, momentarily stunned. She hadn't expected the other person to be so incredibly beautiful, like a celestial being. "How did you know I was a woman? Was it because you were also a woman disguised as a man, so you recognized me easily?"
Song Tantan was a little unhappy that her identity had been discovered so easily, and she was even less willing to help them. "Do it yourself. This thing isn't made of iron. You have knives, so go ahead and cut it. You can get out once you cut it."
"Hey, don't go!" The girl tried to feed them for a long time, but it was all in vain. Song Tantan quickly ran upstairs and ignored them.
The four maids got up from the ground, clutching their injuries, and endured the pain to find the switch. After groping around for a while, they finally rescued the guard and the two young ladies.
All ten people were injured to varying degrees. Among them, two maids and a guard were the most seriously injured. They were all seriously injured because they took the knife for their young lady.
They found some wound medicine on the bandits, applied it to the wound, and then bandaged it up, which was considered a treatment. In ancient times, with such limited resources, having wound medicine was already quite good; there were no more advanced treatment methods available.
After returning to her room, Song Tantan showed Ye Moxun and Song Zhuiyan the silver she had looted. There were only three hundred taels, and she asked them if they wanted to share some.
"You can keep it yourself, I don't want it." Ye Moxun rubbed his temples helplessly. This girl must have been a miser in her past life, she's still so greedy in this one.
"Ah Xun, do you think the shopkeeper might have some secret room with lots of treasures hidden inside? Why don't you come with me to look for them? We'll split the money we find." Song Tantan smiled ingratiatingly at him.
"I'm not going. It's all ill-gotten gains. What's the point of having it?" Ye Moxun walked to the spot where they were sleeping on the floor, lay down, closed his eyes, and ignored her.
"Are you asleep? You really won't come with me? We can use the ill-gotten gains to help refugees, but if some bad people get them, they'll definitely use the money to do even more bad things, I think..."
"I think you'd better go catch up on your sleep right now and stop thinking about that little bit of money. Give up, I'm not going to go with you to look for it." Ye Moxun didn't even open his eyes before directly refusing again.
He didn't hear her speak for a while, then he heard rustling sounds from the side. He felt a corner of the blanket being lifted, and some shameless guy was lying stiffly next to him.
