“You…”
Hong Gu Niang was furious.
Marry a wife?
Do you think I can help you?
Just then.
The bandits from the ridge rushed down.
Hong Gu Niang hurriedly put on her clothes and tightened them.
When she turned around, the bandits had arrived.
“Second in command…”
The leader called out.
But he couldn’t help but be stunned.
What’s going on?
The second in command was wearing men’s clothes?
Looking at her appearance.
It was as if she had been through a great battle, looking extremely disheveled.
The rest of the bandits also looked at each other in bewilderment.
“Second in command, what happened!”
They dared not look any further, afraid of offending Hong Gu Niang.
But…
They couldn’t help but ask.
Could it be.
That the boy was trying to bully Hong Gu Niang?
Or maybe…
He had already bullied her?
Didn’t you see Hong Gu Niang wearing his clothes?
Moreover…
Looking at her messy hairpins and missing shoe.
Could it be that the boy took advantage of her?
“This kid is really bold!”
The bandits couldn’t help but think.
They knew Hong Gu Niang’s temper all too well.
With such humiliation.
Even if she died, she would still destroy that person.
Of course.
They were naturally furious as well.
Hong Gu Niang was the second in command of Chang Sheng Shan.
Though she had a bit of a temper.
She was still their second in command.
If their second in command was bullied, and they didn’t stand up for her, what would they say about the chivalry of the martial world?
“It’s nothing!”
Unexpectedly.
The second in command mumbled a word.
Though her words were filled with anger.
There was no murderous intent.
This left them confused.
“Second in command, did that bastard touch you? We’ll immediately go back to the mountain and gather our men. We’ll tie up that bastard and skin him alive…”
The leader said angrily.
“I said it’s nothing!”
Hong Gu Niang glared at them.
The bandits suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
Could it be that after the young pretty boy humiliated the second in command.
The second in command actually fell for him?
It wasn’t impossible to say.
The second in command was beautiful and had many suitors.
But she rejected them all.
Although the boy was arrogant, he was indeed capable.
Besides, he looked quite good-looking.
“Second in command, if you have your eye on that kid, then tie him up and bring him back to the mountain. It’s just one person after all. Even if he’s skilled in fighting, with dozens of pistols pointed at his head, he’ll have to go with you!”
“That’s right, as long as the second in command gives the order, we’ll do it immediately!”
The bandits shouted.
Hong Gu Niang was dumbfounded.
What is all this?
What do you mean she has her eye on that kid?
And tie him up?
Wouldn’t that make her a bandit leader who steals people’s loved ones?
Immediately, her face darkened, and she scolded, “Shut up, this is the location of the tomb. We just encountered a blood corpse in the tomb!”
“What?”
Upon hearing this, the bandits were startled.
Only now did they realize that there seemed to be someone lying in front of them.
Two of them stepped forward to investigate.
Sure enough, they saw a blood corpse nailed to the ground with a loyang shovel.
Its head was smashed, clearly dead.
There were also signs of a fight nearby.
There were many stones stained with blood scattered around.
“Second in command, were we tricked by that group of people?”
The leader finally realized.
“Yes, they are from the Wu family of the Nine Gates. They are not easy to deal with, they tricked us!”
Hong Gu Niang said.
“Damn it, they dare to trick us?”
The bandits were immediately furious.
They shouted that they would go to Changsha City to kill them.
“Alright, tomb robbing is a matter of skill and luck. You can’t just go to Changsha City and fight whoever you want? Besides, this Wu family robbed this blood corpse tomb, four of them lost three, and only one young boy is left, he won’t be able to do anything!”
Hong Gu Niang was still clear-headed.
After all, Changsha City was the foundation of the Nine Gates.
Just the Zhang family of the top three gates alone.
They controlled the Changsha city defense army.
They were a real warlord boss.
Even Luo Lao Wai, who was supported by the big boss, was no match for Zhang Qi Shan.
Although Chang Sheng Shan had hundreds of thousands of good men.
They were no match for a regular army.
Moreover…
If it wasn’t for the Wu family’s tomb robbing.
No one would have known that such a strange blood corpse would exist in this small and insignificant tomb on the seemingly unremarkable Biaozi Ridge.
The bandits listened.
Of course, they knew they couldn’t fight.
They were just trying to sound intimidating.
“Second in command, should we still move this tomb?”
One of them asked.
“Let’s return to Chang Sheng Shan first and discuss with the big boss before we make a decision!”
Hong Gu Niang said.
“Okay!”
The bandits nodded.
After cleaning up the scene.
The tunnel was also restored to its original state.
After marking it.
Hong Gu Niang led her men away from Biaozi Ridge.
…
Among the mountains.
Zhang Chen ran quickly with his shirt off.
Suddenly, he saw a pile of stones ahead.
“Li Shu’s mark?”
Zhang Chen nodded.
He confirmed the direction and followed.
In a short time, he saw Old Li sitting high up on the ridge, panting and puffing on his pipe.
He was quite visible in the darkness.
“Li Shu!”
Zhang Chen shouted, and he was already there.
“Good boy, I knew you’d be alright!”
Upon seeing him, Old Li immediately sat up, excited.
But he was stunned when he saw that the boy was shirtless.
And seeing that he was alone.
He immediately realized that the second in command of Chang Sheng Shan must be gone.
“Oh my, with the second in command dead, those bandits from Chang Sheng Shan won’t let us go. Boy, let’s get down from the ridge, go home, pack our things, and escape tonight. We can’t stay here anymore…”
Old Li sighed and groaned.
He had lived in this place for a lifetime.
His relationships and connections were all around here.
If he fled from here.
He would have to live a tight life again.
“Li Shu, who told you that Hong Gu Niang died!”
Zhang Chen rolled his eyes.
“She didn’t die?”
Old Li was stunned.
He looked into the distance, then at Zhang Chen.
He asked, “Did you take care of Hong Gu Niang?”
Zhang Chen was immediately covered in black lines.
“Li Shu, what are you talking about? I’m not a flower thief!”
“Then why don’t you have any clothes on!”
Old Li asked.
“Hong Gu Niang’s clothes were torn by the blood corpse, so I gave them to her!”
Zhang Chen said.
“Oh, huh?”
Old Li couldn’t help but widen his eyes. “So, you took advantage of her?”
Zhang Chen nodded.
This didn’t require any thought.
He remembered what happened in the tunnel vividly.
“Ai, you kid, even so, why didn’t you kill her and let her go? Now, we both have to move!”
Old Li shook his head, helpless.
