After listening to the explanations of the two robbers, Yun Chao almost died of anger.
He was really being watched.
However, it is not because they spend money generously, but because they make a lot of money.
The man behind the scenes was a guy from Shizilou, the same one who told Yun Chao to get out in the first place.
Seeing a country boy making ten taels of silver from the shopkeeper in one fell swoop, the clerk at the Lion House got evil intentions and found a few familiar scoundrels to make a fortune.
Ten taels of silver, which many people cannot earn in a year, is enough for a few scoundrels to take a risk.
This is not the first time that these gangsters have engaged in this kind of capital-free business. It can be said that they are familiar with the business. They originally thought that it would be a sure thing, but unexpectedly they stumbled into a big fight.
"Good... good man... Grandpa, spare... spare my life..."
Maybe the internal organs or blood vessels were punctured. After the two robbers talked for a while, their consciousness gradually began to blur, their voices became lower and lower, and their eyes became more and more distracted.
"Second brother, these two guys are dying, what should we do?"
"Um……"
Yun Chao thought for a while: "Let's go."
"Oh, why don't you report it to the official?"
"If you don't report it to the official, you'll save yourself trouble."
Shitou didn't want to see the officials either. Officials were savage beasts in the eyes of the people. If he could avoid dealing with them, it was best not to deal with them.
Yun Chao didn't think that the officials of the Great Wu Dynasty could make decisions for the people, otherwise the people would not have such a hard life. Just because of the tax burden that could drive people crazy, he knew what the virtues of the Wu Dynasty's officials were.
Do you expect a group of exploiters who are more ruthless than wolves to punish evil and promote good, and seek justice for yourself, the victim?
It's better to save your money, otherwise they may give you a heavy blow, or even destroy your family!
Besides, apparently it was the boy from the Lion House looking for someone to rob him. Who knows who is the real mastermind behind the scenes? What if it is the fat shopkeeper who looks harmless to humans and animals?
The power of the Lion House must be related to the government. If the fat shopkeeper wanted to deal with him, wouldn't he be a sheep in the tiger's mouth if he reported it to the officials?
In a short period of time, Yun Chao thought a lot.
In the end, he decided not to say anything. Regardless of whether he was a boy from the Lion House who was interested in making money, or the shopkeeper of the Lion House had a dark heart, it would not be too late to settle the score with them after he became stronger!
Shi Shi endured the discomfort and started to drive.
"Well, Shitou, don't worry, drive the ox cart into the woods over there."
Yun Chaoyue wants to feel more and more aggrieved. This loss cannot be in vain. Even if he can't settle the accounts with the mastermind behind the scenes for the time being, he still has to collect some interest!
Robbers are good at finding places. There are woods on both sides of this section of the road, but the trees are not very dense. In some sparse places, there is no problem in driving an ox cart.
Just now the two robbers escaped into the woods to the south, and Yun Chao asked Shitou to drive the ox cart into the woods to the north.
After tying the cow, the two men took their weapons and quietly walked back, hiding behind a tree by the roadside and waiting quietly.
When it snows, it becomes cold.
The weather was so cold that the cold wind blew on my face like a knife.
In this kind of weather, most people don’t go out unless necessary, especially when traveling far away.
The road was very quiet. Yun Chao and Shi Tou waited for half an hour, but no passers-by passed by.
Just when Yun Chao's lips turned purple from the cold and he could no longer hold on, his hard work finally paid off. The two robbers who had escaped finally came back!
What made Yun Chao depressed was that the two robbers brought back two people. He and Shitou were the only two people, so it was a bit difficult to deal with four people.
However, when Yun Chao saw clearly what the two of them looked like, his depression disappeared.
It's really hard to find anything without wearing iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get it.
That guy with the big mole on his cheek, who else could he be if he wasn't a guy from the Lion House?
Shitou winked at Yun Chao desperately and asked him if he wanted to take action.
Yun Chao shook his head at Shi Shi, telling him to calm down.
When several people just arrived, it was when they were most vigilant and not the best time to take action.
At first, the reactions of several guys were as Yun Chao expected.
Seeing the miserable condition of several of his accomplices, he immediately vomited.
However, the next tricks of the guys stunned Yun Chao and completely subverted his three views!
They didn't check whether their accomplice could be revived, nor did they cry out and vow to avenge their accomplice, but they couldn't wait to touch the body!
These guys were able to touch the corpse very smoothly without any hesitation. You could tell at a glance that they were experienced hands.
It's a pity that these dead ghosts are all paupers. After searching for a long time, all they got together was only about a hundred copper coins and a few small silver beans.
Several guys looked unhappy and reluctantly started to carry the bodies, trying to carry them to the woods on the roadside.
Yun Chao was not prepared to wait any longer.
Once they enter the woods, it will be difficult to attack them by surprise.
He gestured to Shitou, who was eager to try, and when he nodded, Yun Chao was on the left with the bamboo gun, and Shitou was on the right with the ax, and the two walked out quietly.
The four guys worked in pairs, carrying the body toward the woods south of the road, with their backs to Yun Chao and the others.
The two people were sneaking closer and closer to them...
Suddenly, there was a clatter under the stone, and he stepped into a mud pit formed by the melted snow!
This time, as if the pause button had been pressed, the four guys carrying the corpse in front suddenly stood still!
Before the guys could turn around, Yun Chao took a few steps forward and stabbed out the bamboo spear in his hand!
At the same time, Shi Shi also exerted force under his feet, wielding the ax and rushing forward!
Fortunately, the distance between the two parties was not far away. Before the four guys could react, Yun Chao's bamboo spear had already hit one of them!
Click!
To Yun Chao's expectation, the squeaking sound he imagined did not appear!
I don’t know if there was something wrong with the angle of the thrust, or if the opponent’s back was relatively hard, but the bamboo spear that Yun Chao had placed so much hope on actually broke!
Fortunately, Shitou didn't miss. He was tall and had long legs. He stepped behind the opponent in a few steps and killed one with one axe!
In fact, Yun Chao didn't completely miss. Although the bamboo spear broke and failed to penetrate the opponent's body, the impact was too strong and it still knocked the opponent upside down.
Yun Chao reacted faster this time. He didn't care about the unlucky guy who fell down. Instead, he took a step forward, flashed his sword, and stabbed the other guy's back with a sharp knife!
The sharp knife belonged to the robber, and Yun Chao kept it just in case. Unexpectedly, it actually came in handy.
Yun Chao succeeded, but the stone on the other side failed to expand the victory.
The remaining big black mole, the guy from the Lion House, reacted faster. Seeing the stone's ax chop down, he threw the body he was carrying, dwarfed his body, and collided with his body at the same time. Not only did he avoid the fatal blow. It was hit, and it fit into the arms of the stone!
Yun Chao glanced out of the corner of his eye and was shocked when he saw this scene: "Be careful with the stone!"
