Ignoring the other party's disgusting foul language and the mountain king's nauseating gaze, Hong Xiaoduo moved her ankles and wrists.
After visiting the Nie family mansion last time, she would practice her lightness skill whenever she had the right opportunity, and she was already able to control the force required to jump to the desired height.
In my excitement, I thought to myself, if I can jump high, I should be able to run too.
So she gave it a try, and the result shocked her.
The speed of running is controlled by one's own will; when you run fast, the scenery on both sides rushes past you.
So what's so scary about the other side having more people? If you can beat them, then fight; if you can't, you can just run away.
Besides, with the kids not around tonight, I can focus on fighting monsters.
Seeing that the bandits surrounding her weren't in a hurry to attack, Hong Xiaoduo knew they didn't take her seriously at all.
He was watching her now, partly out of amusement.
Hong Xiaoduo had finished her activities and pointed at the bandits around her with her whip, shouting: "You all have hands and feet, why do you have to do this kind of robbery and other immoral things?"
Let me lay out the ugly truth upfront, and then I'll give you all a chance to repent. If any of you leave now, I'll pretend you were never here. But once things get serious, I won't hold back.
By then, it will be too late to beg me to let you go.
Now count to three. After the count reaches three, those who don't leave will have no more chances.
When Hong Xiaoduo said these words, the bandits around her laughed, as if they were hearing such a funny joke for the first time.
Despite being looked down upon like this, Hong Xiaoduo felt no anger whatsoever. She muttered to herself, "I've given you a chance. If you accidentally kill someone, then you can't blame me."
"One, two, three." Amidst the laughter, Hong Xiaoduo counted the three numbers seriously and slowly, in a way that only she could hear.
But what does it matter? She's not really that kind-hearted. She's just nagging to put her mind at ease.
"My goodness, Your Majesty, this little maid is hilarious! You'll never be bored again!" One of the underlings beside Bao Guangyong laughed so hard he almost cried.
"Alright, some of you go over and keep my wife company. We can't spoil her fun." Bao Guangyong was also very pleased.
He had several women in the village, some of whom were quite good-looking. However, after being taken to the mountain for several years, they all still had long faces all day long. When it came to sex, they were practically like corpses, which was very boring.
Those with fiery tempers will seize any opportunity to commit suicide.
There were indeed women who flattered and fawned over him, but who could have imagined that the young woman had been pretending all along, and when he was most relaxed, she pulled out her hairpin and stabbed him.
Thinking of this, Bao Guangyong unconsciously touched a scar on his neck.
Tonight, a new person will finally be joining my life. I need to put some thought into how to train her so that she will be devoted to me.
"Brother, I'll go spar with your wife for a bit," someone stepped forward and said.
When Bao Guangyong saw that it was his sworn brother, the third brother Wu Biao, he smiled and nodded.
Wu Biao dismounted, his hand just gripping the hilt of his sword at his waist. He hesitated for a moment, then turned around, picked up a stick from the ground, weighed it in his hand, and walked over to Hong Xiaoduo.
When Wu Biao dismounted, Hong Xiaoduo knew that this was the first person to come and fight her.
Seeing that he didn't use his sword but instead picked up a wooden stick, Hong Xiaoduo couldn't help but curse inwardly, "Who do they think they are?"
Okay, I hope you can still act tough later.
"Who goes there? State your name," Hong Xiaoduo asked the person walking towards her.
She wasn't doing this out of the blue; she just wanted to take the opportunity to get some information out of him.
“Sister-in-law, I am Wu Biao, the third brother of the chief. May I ask your name and where you are from?” Wu Biao got closer and saw her more clearly. He felt a little regretful. This lovely girl was exactly his type.
"Third in line? How many brothers do you have together?" Hong Xiaoduo ignored the question the other person had asked her and asked again.
Wu Biao smiled and said, "There are only three brothers. The second one is over there. Look, the one with the double swords is him."
Seeing that the other party was so cooperative, Hong Xiaoduo continued to ask, "Did you become sworn brothers based on age, martial arts skills, or..."
After hearing this, Wu Biao was actually a little confused. Was she trying to trick him into revealing information?
He then smiled and said, "Reporting to my sister-in-law, the three of us brothers swore brotherhood according to the order in which we arrived at Dalian Mountain. My eldest brother arrived first, so he is naturally the eldest. I was the last one to join the group, so I am the third oldest."
Since we're just using the usual jargon, then there's no need to give us any tips. Just chatting is quite interesting.
Even if I tell you all the secrets of Dalian Mountain, do you think you can still escape?
Looking at the person in front of him holding a whip, Wu Biao felt that she was like a little white rabbit surrounded by a pack of tigers and wolves.
Hong Xiaoduo could tell what he was thinking just by looking at his expression.
"I heard you guys are very skilled, but which of the three of you is the best? Among these people, do they all know martial arts? Do they all know a little bit? Or are they all generally quite skilled?" Hong Xiaoduo continued to inquire.
"Of the three of us, the eldest is the best at kung fu, then I am, and my second brother is a bit weaker. As for the others, sister-in-law, you can learn about them yourself once you arrive at our village." Wu Biao felt that if they continued talking like this, it would never end.
Although it was interesting, I had no part in it, so I lost the desire to continue teasing her.
Seeing that he was losing patience, Hong Xiaoduo was very disdainful. "Is that all? If you're so capable, why don't you keep pretending? You're nothing! Humph!"
"Could the Third Master satisfy one last curiosity of mine? How many mountains are there on your Great Lotus Mountain? And how many people are there?" Hong Xiaoduo asked persistently.
You should at least have some idea of what's going on, otherwise, once things start to get physical, any questions you ask will only be in the form of interrogation.
The interrogation itself is fine, but the atmosphere here is so much better! It's so harmonious!
“I say, young lady, don’t bother with these little schemes. Since you know we’re from Dalian Mountain, how could you not know? We brothers have been on Dalian Mountain for many years, and the government has tried to wipe us out several times, but we’ve all failed.”
You don't seem like someone sent by the government. Since you're now in our hands, just behave yourself and come up the mountain to be our leader's wife. As long as you behave, our leader will definitely not mistreat you...
