Those bandits will eventually attack Ning'an Village.
Lin Weiming felt a chill run down his spine, and his gaze towards the three bandits turned cold, revealing a hint of murderous intent.
If we kill these three and hang their heads at the village entrance, it should at least deter a few bandits, right?
However, the three bandits had been driven to madness by hunger and were now just staring longingly at the bowl of noodles in Lin Weiming's hand, which was almost cold, swallowing their saliva incessantly.
"Big brother... if you don't eat this soon, it'll all mushy..." the short man tentatively asked.
The two people next to him, who were also tied up, were also making gurgling noises in their stomachs and swallowing hard.
These noodles look delicious; even if they clump together, they'd still eat them!
Lin Weiming suddenly came to his senses, a cold smile playing on his lips. He picked up the noodles with his chopsticks and, in a very uncivilized manner, stuffed them into his mouth right in front of them.
The noodles were indeed a bit mushy, but the broth had already mixed with them, and each noodle was soaked in the broth, making the flavor even richer.
The more Lin Weiming ate, the more his stomach ached from watching.
"No, bro... how could you lie to us? Didn't you just say that if we answered your questions, you would give us food? Now you're eating it yourself! You're a liar." The big, simple-minded guy couldn't take it anymore and started cursing angrily.
In no time at all, Lin Weiming had finished all the noodles in his bowl.
In front of the three people, he let out a satisfied burp.
"Oh?" Lin Weiming comfortably rubbed his face with his hand, a disdainful smile on his face. "When did I say that? I don't remember."
"You bunch of beasts who can even eat humans, what are you still eating? The sooner you starve to death, the sooner the King of Hell will have a spare moment!" Lin Weiming picked up the bowl and chopsticks, picked up the oil lamp again, and left.
Even after leaving, he didn't forget to close the door again.
The room was plunged into darkness once again.
The others were gone, but the faint aroma of noodles lingered in the room, tormenting the three bandits.
The three bandits used the last of their strength to hurl a torrent of abuse at Lin Weiming.
But Lin Weiming had already returned to his newly built house and ignored them.
In the darkness unseen by the three bandits, the little pink butterfly slowly blew a cold wind.
"These men have really strong yang energy, but their luck isn't so good!" Little Pink Butterfly narrowed her beautiful eyes.
As the saying goes, even ghosts and gods fear evil people.
The three of them—the short guy, the skinny guy, and the big, clumsy guy—were considered villains. Little Pink Butterfly, who hadn't absorbed any male yang energy in a long time, was hesitant to approach them because of the murderous aura emanating from them. So, she secretly played some tricks to scare them.
...
The next morning when the sun rose.
The villagers all saw two small paper figures flapping their arms as if they were flying back.
"Mommy, look! These are the little paper figures that Wanwan released yesterday afternoon. They've flown back!" a child said, pointing to the returning paper figures.
One after another, they started shouting, and the villagers' eyes lit up as if they had seen some hope.
The little paper figure flew to the Lin family's door and rested on the woodpile at the entrance.
Lin Wanyue caught them with her hands.
The two small pieces of paper fell into her hands, losing their spirit.
"How's it outside?" Lin Wanyue asked.
Laifu stretched and said slowly, "The situation is probably not good."
"Hmm?" Although Lin Wanyue already had a general idea of what was going on, she still couldn't help but feel a little nervous when she heard Lai Fu say that.
Master Cui then chimed in, “We have already circled the entire area within fifty li of Ning’an Village, and we have also checked all the surrounding villages. There are more than twenty villages in total, but seven or eight have already fallen victim to their evil deeds. The locations are not far apart, so if they want to come over, it will probably only take them a day to travel.”
Will they come?
This is inevitable and certain!
If what Master Cui said is true, then it means that half of the surrounding villages have suffered at their hands!
How could they possibly let go of Ning'an Village, which is more "prosperous" than other places?
It's just a matter of time!
Lin Wanyue pondered for a moment.
"What are we going to do? Your house is newly built. If you go to the mountains with everyone else, the house will probably be destroyed." Little Pink Butterfly chimed in.
This house was built with the help of the whole village. It is one of the newest houses in Ning'an Village, and the furniture was made at a high price.
If they really fell into the hands of those bandits, it's obvious they would be utterly ruined!
Lin Wanyue quietly clenched her small fist. To deal with the bandits, it would be best to take them out before they were caught!
Once she made up her mind, Lin Wanyue acted immediately.
After breakfast, Lin Wanyue told her family that she had to go to the vegetarian room to ask the ghosts they kept for help.
The Lin family all knew that they were raising a ghost, and they had no doubts about it.
Only the twin brothers Lin Zihan and Lin Ziqiu looked longingly at Lin Wanyue, wanting to go and see her.
However, this time they were rejected without hesitation.
"Third and fourth brother!" Lin Zheyun adopted the demeanor of an older brother and generously took the two little ones in: "You two are little men now, don't stay at home all day like your little sister. Come on, let's go patrol the village together! If bandits really come, we can protect Grandma and the others, right?"
"But second brother, didn't Father say that we're not allowed to deal with bandits? He said we have to come back and report as soon as we find them?" Lin Zihan said softly, looking at his second brother's eager expression as if he couldn't wait to rush up and beat up the bandits.
"That was just to warn you to be careful. I didn't tell you to rush in, so what are you afraid of?" Lin Zheyun waved his hand dismissively.
While her family members were all out doing their own things, Lin Wanyue quietly took Little Pink Butterfly and ran outside the village.
After all, Laifu and Master Cui had been busy all night yesterday, so they needed to get some rest today.
Moreover, she felt more at ease having the two of them stay at home and guard the village.
Once outside the village, Lin Wanyue no longer needed to worry about being seen by her parents and grandmother. Little Pink Butterfly saw that Lin Wanyue's legs were too short, and she could run two steps but not even cover the distance of Lin Wanyue's one step. So she simply picked her up and carried her around, discussing with her how to deal with those bandits.
Given Lin Wanyue's current small stature, even if she isn't eaten alive by those bandits, she'll at most make them laugh until their bellies burst.
The important task of dealing with the bandits still has to be entrusted to Little Pink Butterfly.
The little pink butterfly readily agreed, and even her beautiful eyes gleamed with a faint, excited red light.
"Don't worry! I will definitely teach those bandits a lesson and make sure they never dare to invade again!"
As the human and the ghost were talking, Little Pink Butterfly suddenly stopped and made a 'shh' gesture to Lin Wanyue.
Lin Wanyue looked at the little pink butterfly with a puzzled expression.
