Zu An was stunned. Even if I go out to pick up girls, I will be robbed and killed by gangsters. What kind of luck is this?
However, he is not too worried. After traveling to the secret realm, his cultivation level has skyrocketed. As long as he does not encounter some powerful people who defy the will of heaven, he will have no problem dealing with ordinary people.
Just when he was about to comfort Qiu Honglei, a wisp of fragrant wind blew by, and the other party had already come to him.
"Young Master, don't be afraid, I will protect you." Qiu Honglei protected him behind her, her face no longer as soft as before, but with a hint of determination.
Zu An: "???"
Did we get the two scripts backwards?
Just as he was in a trance, the door curtain had been roughly torn down, and several masked men broke in.
Seeing Qiu Honglei's graceful figure, those people couldn't help but whistle, their eyes filled with fascination.
Qiu Hong said in a deep voice, "Who are you? How dare you go to Mingyue City to make trouble. Shenxianju is not something you can afford to offend. Retreat quickly. I can pretend that nothing happened today."
Zu An couldn't help but admire her. She remained calm and composed in the face of such a situation. This demeanor made her obviously different from other beautiful women.
Hearing her words, the masked sweaters were stunned for a moment, and then laughed so hard:
"Shenxianju? We are so scared."
"In front of our Heifeng Village, Shenxianju is nothing."
"What I'm robbing is your Immortal Residence!"
…
"Black Wind Village!"
Qiuhong's tearful face changed slightly. It was obvious that she had heard of the name of Black Wind Village. The leader Chen Xuan led a group of bandits to roar through the mountains and forests, plundering the passing caravans. Lord Mingyue and the city lord sent masters and troops to suppress the bandits many times. They returned in vain, and several times even suffered heavy losses.
"Are you from Black Wind Village?" Zu An was a little surprised. He had seen Chen Xuan before, and his subordinates also had some impressions.
Although these people had their faces covered, they were obviously not the ones Chen Xuan brought to Shenxianju before. Could they be ambushing them outside.
"What, are you scared?"
The leader laughed and said, "Give me your woman. If our brothers are happy, we might even let you live."
"Young master, hurry up and leave, I'll take the throne!" Qiu Honglei hurriedly pushed him out.
Zu An was speechless, thinking where should I go in the middle of the river, but he still nodded and said: "Okay, be careful."
After saying that, he turned around and walked out.
Qiu Honglei: "..."
She originally thought that the other party would give in, and no matter how hard she tried to protect him from leaving, she didn't know that he would run away without hesitation?
The people on the opposite side also laughed and said, "Beauty, the man you chose is too cowardly. It's better to follow my brothers and keep your favorite drinks."
Zu An turned a deaf ear to the sounds coming from behind. He came to the bow of the boat and looked around. Except for a small boat next to him, there were no other thieves. In the distance, other flower boats were rowing leisurely. , everywhere is still amidst the bustling hustle and bustle.
He was thoughtful and walked back to the cabin again.
Seeing him coming back, Qiu Hong burst into tears: "Master Zu, why are you back?"
Before Zu An could answer, the leader of the robber's eyes lit up: "Your surname is Zu, but is that uncle of the Chu family, Zu An?"
"Why, am I so famous now?" Zu An looked surprised, and even sounded a little smug in his tone.
Qiu Honglei looked at him with some resentment, why did you admit it so easily?
It’s over.
The bandit leader couldn't help but ask: "I heard that you won 7.5 million taels at Silver Hook Gambling House, and nearly 1 million taels at other gambling houses?"
Zu An nodded: "I can't help it. I've always been so lucky. Winning a small amount of money is not worth mentioning. It's not worth mentioning."
Qiu Honglei touched her forehead with her hand, obviously giving up on the idea of treating him.
The bandit leader laughed loudly: "It seems that I am lucky now. Not only did I get a beautiful woman today, but I also got a financial sponsor. If you hand over the money, maybe I will consider letting you go."
Zu An spread his hands and said, "But I didn't bring any money with me when I came out today. How about you go to Mingyue Gong's mansion to get it from my wife?"
The bandit leader sneered: "Don't scare me with Mingyue Gong. When have we in Heifeng Village ever been afraid of people named Chu?"
Zu An looked at him curiously: "Your Excellency sounds so arrogant, don't you know that you have any position in Black Wind Stronghold?"
"Of course I am Chen Xuan, the eldest boss, so why don't you be afraid?" The bandit leader snorted, "Be obedient and write a letter back to ask the Chu family to pay the ransom, otherwise I will chop off one of your hands and feet and send them back."
"Are you Chen Xuan?" Zu An couldn't help but laugh.
Qiu Honglei, who was on the side, pulled his sleeve and whispered: "Master, it's better not to anger the other party at this juncture."
Zu An was noncommittal. Everything in front of him looked weird. If he hadn't known what the real Chen Xuan looked like through the anger value system before, he might have been deceived by this guy.
Now this scene will not be a fairy dance.
In my previous life, I often saw news online. Some people were excited to go to a different place to make an appointment with a young lady, but a few big men came and took the opportunity to blackmail them.
What's happening now looks a bit familiar.
"Why, doesn't it look like that?" The look in his eyes made the man feel offended.
The anger value from Gu Yue Yi is +233!
"Gu Yueyi?" Zu An was stunned when he saw the name in the background and thought about it carefully. He had never heard it before.
"Yes, of course it is." There was a hint of sarcasm in Zu An's tone, but he did not expose the other party. He wanted to see what these guys were going to do.
Although his face was covered, he could vaguely tell that Gu Yueyi was not very old. He frowned, and it was obvious that the other party's reaction was a bit off: "Stop talking nonsense, write a note quickly, so that I can notify the Chu family to collect the ransom." .”
Zu An shook his head: "I think it's unwise for you to do this."
Gu Yue frowned: "Are you teaching me how to do things?"
Zu An smiled: "I'm just helping you analyze this matter. You see, even if I write a letter asking for help, you send someone to the Chu family, the Duke's Palace of the Chu family. If I obediently give you money, Then where can we put the Chu family’s face?”
"What's more, everyone in Mingyue City knows that my uncle is not well-received by the Chu family. Maybe they just go along with it and let you kill someone with a borrowed knife, and you can also swallow my millions of taels of silver."
"In this way, no one will blame the Chu family for being ruthless, but will only accuse you of being ruthless."
Those people looked at each other in confusion, and finally Gu Yueyi said in confusion: "What should we do?"
"Let's do this. You follow me back to Chu's house, and I will take out the banknotes and give them to you." Zu An said.
Gu Yueyi sneered: "Do you think I'm stupid? I'll go back to Chu's house with you. What will happen if you don't come out by then?"
Zu An pointed to Qiu Honglei beside him: "Isn't she still here? With this hostage here, I will definitely come back to redeem her, so don't hurt her, otherwise I won't give you the money."
Seeing everyone's hesitation, he continued: "Although Miss Qiu is beautiful, you can't share enough with her alone. I have a few million taels of silver notes there, which is enough for you to change brides every day. Wouldn't it be better?"
Gu Yueyi was a little undecided and glanced at Qiu Honglei subconsciously. Qiu Honglei nodded without any trace.
He then said: "Okay, don't play tricks, otherwise we will not only turn this woman around, but we will also find every opportunity to kill you."
Zu An fully understood their eye contact: "Don't worry, I am more afraid of death than anyone else."
But I was thinking in my heart, what is Qiu Honglei's purpose? Is he also coveting my millions of taels of silver?
But being in a place like Shenxianju where information circulates, it is impossible for her not to know that most of the money is IOUs. Whether it can be recovered is a question. What can she do with it?
"Okay, then let's go to the Chu Mansion!" Gu Yue waved her hand and signaled her men to rock the boat and head towards the Chu family.
"You two, don't play tricks." After everything was done, Gu Yueyi and his men came behind the two of them and placed two shining knives on their necks.
Qiu Honglei said with an apologetic look: "I'm sorry for causing you to lose so much money."
"I love the country more than beauty. If I lose my money, I can make it again, but if you lose it, I will really lose it." Zu An said this, but he was sneering in his heart. After returning to the Chu family, I was too lazy to Come out to save you, you are probably all in the same group anyway.
At that time, Yue Shan will be asked to lead a team to arrest these people and interrogate them strictly to see what their intentions are.
Well, when the time comes, I will take Qiu Honglei back to the room for personal interrogation.
The main reason why Zu An doesn't have an attack now is that Gu Yue's first cultivation level is not low, and the energy fluctuations in his body seem to be at the fifth level. Of course, he alone won't take it seriously.
But there was Qiu Honglei next to her. Although this woman looked soft and frail on the surface, once she got into contact with her, it was impossible to tell how deep she was.
The reason for this is either that her cultivation is several levels higher than hers, or that she has a corresponding magic weapon that masks her aura.
No matter what it is, he doesn't dare to be careless. After all, this is not a game. If you die, you will have a chance to come back.
What's more, there is also a queen sister. It would be too embarrassing if she died together with her.
Qiu Honglei didn't know what he was thinking. When she heard that he spent millions of taels to save her without changing his expression, her expression suddenly became complicated.
The two of them had their own thoughts, and the cabin suddenly fell into a strange silence.
The boat went like this for a while, and suddenly the whole boat shook violently, as if it hit something.
Then there was an arrogant voice outside:
"Hahaha, I finally found Miss Qiu's flower boat!"
Gu Yueyi suddenly stood up: "What's going on outside?"
But what he responded to was several dull screams.
His expression changed, and he hurriedly ran out with the knife. However, not long after he went out, he suddenly retreated back in embarrassment like a cannonball.
The entire cabin was also shaken to pieces by the powerful force, and only then did everyone see the situation outside clearly.
A few small boats were seen surrounding their ship in the center. Among them, a red-haired man stood on the bow with an arrogant face, looking down at Qiu Honglei as if he was looking at his own trophy.
Then his eyes fell on Zu An, and a cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.
