Chapter 696 Fairy
The village chief urged Lu Yangyang and the others to leave quickly, almost without hesitation.
The bandits haven't entered the village yet, but if they do, they certainly won't let these goods go.
If Lu Yangyang and the others leave now, as long as no one tells them, the bandits won't chase after them and won't find out that someone has been there.
Manager Song knew that the goods being transported were extremely important and absolutely could not be compromised, so he decided to stay overnight in the village for safety reasons. Little did he know that the village had also been targeted by bandits.
The village chief is right, it's not too late to leave now.
Manager Song subconsciously looked at Lu Yangyang.
Lu Yangyang nodded to Manager Song: "Manager Song, you take the goods and leave first."
We don't know how many bandits there are yet, so we can't risk staying behind. This shipment absolutely cannot be lost.
Shopkeeper Song was taken aback. "And what about you?"
Lu Yangyang said, "Aren't they looking for a doctor? That's me."
"What?" Manager Song instinctively raised his voice, then immediately objected, "No way!"
"Don't worry, Manager Song, I've brought people with me." Those people aren't in the open, but they're not far from them. They're splitting up to avoid attracting attention, but as soon as the signal is sent out, they'll find them quickly.
"Mingxiu, go with Manager Song and tell Yunying to send half of the men to protect you, and leave the other half for me. Don't take a detour yet, find a place to hide, and we'll talk about it in a couple of days," Lu Yangyang calmly instructed.
Taking the detour would add a lot of time and at least four or five days to the journey, which is really not worth it.
By now, the people my brother sent to pick us up should have arrived. If we miss them, we'll have made a wasted trip.
She first went to the bandits' den to investigate; if she couldn't handle it, she would give them some tough treatment.
“Okay, sister.” Mingxiu immediately agreed.
Manager Song was a little uneasy, but seeing that Lu Yangyang had already made her decision, she no longer hesitated and said, "Yes."
Shopkeeper Song and Mingxiu immediately left with their men. Lu Yangyang said to the village chief's wife, "Could you please fetch me a basin of warm water, Auntie?"
The village chief's wife immediately turned around and went to the kitchen to fetch a basin of warm water for Lu Yangyang.
Lu Yangyang took out a small bottle from her handbag, dripped two drops of water into the basin, and then washed her face with warm water, revealing her true appearance.
The village chief's wife, standing to the side, was utterly astonished by her sudden appearance. "Miss Lu?"
Lu Yangyang dried her face and applied some skin cream. Turning to the village chief's wife, she saw her still staring in disbelief. "What's wrong?"
"You, you, you..." The village chief's wife swallowed hard, too shocked to speak properly, "Why, why..."
"Didn't they say they like to snatch pretty girls?" Lu Yangyang asked her, "So, am I okay with this?"
Before she removed her makeup, the village chief's wife thought she was one of the most beautiful girls she had ever seen. But after removing her makeup, she became a hundred times more beautiful, as if her whole person had suddenly come alive.
This isn't just a pretty girl, this is a fairy!
"Girl, this, this is too dangerous..." Realizing what Lu Yangyang was about to do, the village chief's wife quickly stopped her.
"Don't worry, although I'm a doctor, I also know a little martial arts." Lu Yangyang smiled at her and walked out of the house.
Manager Song acted quickly. In the short time it took Lu Yangyang to remove her makeup, he had already led the caravan away from the village in the opposite direction from where the bandits had come, guided by the villagers.
Almost as soon as the caravan left, Lu Yangyang heard the sound of horses' hooves from the other end.
The village chief and his men saw Manager Song and his group off. When they turned around and saw Lu Yangyang, they were also very surprised. "Miss Lu?"
Lu Yangyang nodded: "Where does Doctor Huang live?"
"You..." The village chief was momentarily speechless.
“If they came for the doctor, there’s only one reason they’d return: they need the medicine. Since they can’t openly enter the city, they’ll have to plunder the homes of those barefoot doctors. I’ll go and wait for them.” When Lu Yangyang instructed Huang Tiandong to go home and fetch the medicine, she had already considered what the bandits would do if they returned after kidnapping the doctor.
There was only one answer: for the sake of the medicinal herbs.
So now she goes to Dr. Huang's house to wait, and every time she waits, it's a sure thing.
The village chief understood what Lu Yangyang meant, but while the words were correct, he still asked, "Are you just going to go like this?"
Lu Yangyang only asked him, "Which one?"
The village chief had no choice but to give Lu Yangyang directions.
Dr. Huang's house was not far from Uncle Huang's house, and they arrived quickly.
Lu Yangyang said to the village chief and villagers who were following him, "You don't need to follow me. Just hide. I have a way to deal with them."
The village chief hesitated, but since Lu Yangyang was their savior, they dared not go far and turned to hide quietly in the courtyard next door.
Lu Yangyang entered Doctor Huang's house, and the sound of horses' hooves outside grew closer.
It was already dark, but there was a light on in the Huang family's corridor. It must have been lit when Huang Tiandong came back to get medicine. The light illuminated the courtyard. Lu Yangyang looked around and saw that several medicine baskets used to dry herbs in the corridor had fallen over, and the herbs that were not fully dried were scattered all over the ground.
As Lu Yangyang was watching, the sound of hooves rang out, and the horse stopped at the gate of the courtyard.
A bandit wielding a long knife dismounted and kicked open the courtyard gate.
Lu Yangyang turned her head, startling the bandit so much that the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a thud.
"Fairy, fairy..." the bandit murmured softly, as if afraid of disturbing the people in the courtyard.
The others who followed him in were also stunned, staring blankly at the beauty under the lamplight, feeling that it was extremely unreal, especially the red tail feathers swaying on the beauty's fair face, which seemed to come alive and shine brightly.
Lu Yangyang smiled at them.
