"Oh, I see!"
Hua Lu suddenly slapped her thigh, startling Yun Si Ning.
"What happened?"
"You asked me where the money came from, right? Actually, I caught a few wild animals in the mountains and sold them, which brought me quite a bit of money."
As she spoke, Hua Lu untied a cloth bag from her waist, and Yun Si Ning saw the gold inside.
"Did you hunt wild animals in the mountains?"
"That's right. Even without cultivation, you're still strong. Fighting a few tigers and black bears is still a piece of cake."
Hua Lu patted her chest and said.
“The meat didn’t taste good, and we didn’t have any seasoning, so I exchanged it for money.”
"There were quite a few people around when I was exchanging for this gold. I must have been targeted by those guys outside the door, who followed me all the way here."
"Forehead……"
Yun Si Ning was at a loss for words.
She could hardly imagine the scene: a little girl who was only 1.5 meters tall carrying two tigers and a black bear on her shoulders to exchange for money at a market for ordinary people.
"When you exchanged money, you didn't reveal your financial strength?"
"No, no, I am very low-key."
Hua Lu shook her finger.
"Is it really possible to keep a low profile like this?"
Yun Si Ning was very skeptical, but listening to the approaching footsteps outside the door, it seemed that those unlucky guys really didn't know the true nature of Hua Lu.
At that moment, the footsteps outside the door stopped, followed by a rapid knocking.
Is anyone there?!
It was a man's voice, a deep, gruff one.
Is anyone there?
Seeing no response, he raised his voice even higher.
"Brother Yang, stop talking nonsense and just kick the door down."
Then another voice appeared.
"Exactly, why be so polite now?"
This is the third person.
Yun Si Ning and Hua Lu exchanged a glance.
Yun Si Ning looked helpless, while the little girl had a smile on her lips.
"They know we're bored here, so they came to entertain us."
Hua Lu said with a smile.
Yun Si Ning reached out and wrapped the peach shortbread in oil paper, then put it aside and lay back down.
"Don't do it indoors, or you'll make a mess."
"Hehe, don't worry."
As she spoke, Hua Lu stood up and walked towards the door.
Outside the door, three burly men stood side by side, the one in the lead being a fierce-looking giant.
Just as Hua Lu had guessed, the three of them saw a little girl carrying a bag of gold to buy peach cakes at the market, and instantly harbored evil intentions.
The three of them followed Hua Lu all the way here. After seeing her enter the wooden house, they watched her around for a long time before preparing to make their move.
They might hesitate if it were an adult man, but if it were just a young girl...
Just thinking about that bag of glittering gold made Hu Yang's mouth water.
"Hehe, once we get that bag of gold, we brothers will go out and eat and drink the good stuff, hahaha!!"
Hu Yang laughed loudly and raised his leg to kick the wooden door open.
But then, with a "click," the wooden door was opened from the inside.
The little girl from before appeared in front of them, looking at them with curiosity.
Hu Yang looked into the room and found that there seemed to be only one person lying on the bed.
He saw long black hair, and it looked like it belonged to a woman.
In the desolate wilderness, a wooden hut was found to house only a woman and a little girl, and they also had a whole bag of gold.
Thinking about all this, Hu Yang felt it was all a bit unreal, and he wondered if he was still half asleep.
"Smack—"
He slapped his own bearded face, and a burning pain shot through him. This was not a dream.
"Are you... sick?"
Hua Lu raised an eyebrow. She hadn't even said a word when the other person slapped her across the face.
"Um?!"
Hu Yang lowered his head and looked at the little girl who was almost half a meter shorter than him.
"You call your parents out to talk, kid, go play somewhere else!"
"Pfft—"
Inside the room, Yun Sining couldn't help but laugh out loud when she heard this.
Meanwhile, outside, Hua Lu's face darkened completely upon hearing this. She clenched her small fists tightly, her knuckles cracking loudly.
"What did you say?"
"how?"
Hu Yang had no idea what kind of person he had offended, and instead shouted into the house.
"You woman on the bed inside, get out here!!"
"Hand over the gold you have, and I might spare your lives."
"If you don't hand it over, hmph..."
He waved his fist, which was as big as a clay pot.
"Don't blame me for being heartless!"
"Giving you a beating is too lenient. If you make me unhappy, you weak woman, hahaha..."
As he spoke, he licked his lips, his expression utterly lewd.
"You want to rob me of my money, not only that, but you also want to rape me?"
Hu Yang lowered his head and looked at the little guy who had interrupted him several times.
"So what if I'm trying to rape you? I'm looking for your mother, what right do you have to interrupt, you little brat!"
Finally, the anger that had been building up in Hua Lu's heart reached its limit.
As Hu Yang uttered his last words, Hua Lu's pupils suddenly shrank into two burning amber beads.
Her long hair moved without wind, and tiny arcs of electricity flickered among the flowing strands.
"You're the one who's a kid!"
A punch was thrown, slamming into Hu Yang's abdomen like a cannonball.
