Chapter 326 Men and women are not intimate with each other
As luck would have it, the bandit leader arrived from the other side with his men. Behind them were two men carrying a handsome young man on a carrying pole, like a pig. He looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a round face and exceptionally bright eyes. His hands and feet were tied and he was hanging from the pole. His mouth was also stuffed with something, and he was making muffled noises.
The leader had a full beard and looked extremely fierce. There was also a long scar between his eyebrows that slanted across the corner of his eye and fell into his sideburn, making him look extremely vicious.
When the leader heard what Ge Er and Da Qiang said, he gave them a sharp look, which made Da Qiang's legs go weak and he almost fell over.
"Who did you bring back? I've warned you countless times: if you dare to kidnap innocent women, I'll chop you up and feed you to the dogs!" the gang leader roared.
Daqiang hurriedly threw Lu Yangyang from the sack onto the ground and knelt down with a thud. Ge Er, who was standing next to him, also quickly knelt down and explained, trembling, "Boss, we guarantee, we only rob those corrupt officials and those rich and heartless people. We absolutely, absolutely did not abduct any innocent girls. This, this is what we found by the river. She was injured and disfigured. If we hadn't brought her back, she would definitely be dead."
The two knelt on the ground, heads bowed, too ashamed to look the leader in the eye.
The boss's eyes are just too terrifying!
The leader stared at them coldly, as if trying to determine whether they were lying.
Just then, a fair hand reached out from the sack. She tugged at it a few times, and the sack was torn open, revealing Lu Yangyang's head.
A group of bandits looked at her face in surprise, then gasped in unison.
Good guy!
Damn, he's really good-looking! It's just that the tattoo on his face is weird, like a feather growing on his face. In this foggy weather, he doesn't look like a living person, but more like a mountain spirit.
Lu Yangyang was starving and crawled weakly out of the sack. She let out a breath, glanced at the bandit leader who looked like a small mountain, and then looked at the two people kneeling beside her. After thinking for a moment, she said, "When you tied me up, it didn't seem like that was what you said."
Lu Yangyang recalled, "You said I was disfigured and couldn't fetch a good price, otherwise I could have been sold to Baihualou."
Ge Er and Da Qiang's eyes widened in surprise. Wait, wasn't the girl asleep when they were discussing this?
After Lu Yangyang finished speaking, she turned to the leader and said, "They said they would bring me back for dinner, so I came back with them. Excuse me, is there any food? I'm really hungry."
Someone suddenly shouted, "Hey boss, your wife's hungry, shall we eat?"
"Shut up!" the bandit leader shouted coldly, his gaze probing as he looked at Lu Yangyang. Lu Yangyang looked completely calm, not at all like someone who had been kidnapped by bandits and brought to the village. She looked as if she had just come home, weak and listless, clearly hungry, and even casually complained.
There's something wrong with this girl!
The bandit leader stared at her silently for a while, then asked in a cold voice, "Who are you? Where do you live? If you are a law-abiding citizen, I will have someone send you down the mountain in a moment."
Lu Yangyang was so hungry she was almost rolling her eyes back; she really didn't want to go down the mountain so soon.
This was her first time visiting the mountain stronghold, and she was even a little curious. Ge Er and Da Qiang didn't look like good people at all. Robbing officials was still robbery, and the whole stronghold was no good either! But they weren't allowed to rob innocent people, which was a real contradiction.
Are they going to imitate some chivalrous outlaws, robbing the rich to help the poor? Or do they have a grudge against the imperial court?
This leader had a fierce and cold aura, and he did look like a bandit who robbed and plundered. However, he was upright and his breathing was steady. His eyes were full of subtle observation when he looked at her. He was definitely not an ordinary mountain bandit!
And that guy they tied up... no, that girl, was she also kidnapped by them? They say they don't rob innocent people, so what's with the girl dressed as a man?
She's injured right now, and there are definitely assassins chasing her in the vicinity. Going down the mountain now would be pointless for her; she'd better stay and scout things out first.
Having made up her mind, Lu Yangyang immediately said, "I was indeed a law-abiding citizen before, but now I have been exiled with my husband's family. We were originally going to Yuzhou, but the guards escorting me tried to abuse me. I was forced to the riverbank and jumped in. I was lucky enough to be washed ashore and then brought back by your people."
"Exile?" Upon hearing this word, the leader immediately frowned. "Why exile?"
Lu Yangyang sighed: "My family has been butchering pigs for generations. I was disfigured when I was young, so it was hard for me to get married. My father tried to find a son-in-law for me, and he found a scholar to be my live-in son-in-law. I earned money to support his studies, and we managed to get by. But a few days ago, His Highness the Crown Prince was deposed. He and the other scholars in the academy got angry and went to the street to curse the dog emperor for being blind and heartless. He cursed the most fiercely and was arrested, given fifty strokes of the cane, and sentenced to exile with his whole family."
"Hmph!" The leader sneered, "Indeed blind and heartless, your scholar husband was right to curse you."
After saying that, he seemed to remember something and waved his hand, "Lock both of them in the woodshed and send them some food!"
The servants rushed forward and helped Lu Yangyang up.
They took the girl dressed as a man, who was tied up, with them.
The two of them were thrown into the woodshed. The girl dressed as a boy was thrown to the ground and hurriedly looked at Lu Yangyang with sobs.
Lu Yangyang reached out and pulled the cloth out of her mouth.
"Thank you!" The girl looked at her gratefully, her gaze lingering on her face: "Your tattoo is quite beautiful, and your skills are excellent."
Lu Yangyang: "My husband painted it."
The girl's eyes widened: "So what you said was true! I thought you were just kidding them. How old are you to be married already?"
Lu Yangyang stared at her for a moment, then reached out and gently adjusted her collar: "You've been poisoned. If it's not treated soon, it might cause some trouble."
The girl's eyes widened: "How did you know I was poisoned?"
"Wait a minute, men and women shouldn't touch each other! Even if you're married, you can't just molest me like that!"
Lu Yangyang poked her throat with her finger: "I'm not blind, and you're not even as tall as me!"
"You...you...don't insult me! I may not be tall, but I'm older than you. At least call me 'sister'!" The girl moved back in disbelief, trying to avoid Lu Yangyang's hand. "My name is Wen Qingqing. What's your name?"
