Traveling into ancient literature, killing the male protagonist and succeeding

Chapter 135 Long live my emperor (22)

After training the soldiers for a whole day, Nan Yue only had time to talk to Zuo Yi at night.

The boss Gao Hu, the second in command Zuo Yi, and Chu Yu were also called over by Nan Yue.

After all, he is Chu Yue's younger brother, and Nan Yue will grow up with him.

The four of them sat at the wooden table. The third in command, who was excluded, was very dissatisfied. He moved a chair and wanted to come over to listen to everything, with medicine on his body.

"If I'm not mistaken, you haven't been open for a long time?"

Although he didn't understand why Nan Yue brought this up, the eldest brother still answered honestly, "Well, after I got injured, the second brother was busy taking care of me, so only the third brother occasionally took his brothers to try their luck near Liufeng Valley to see if there were any wealthy businessmen passing by Qi County."

As soon as the big boss finished speaking, the third boss next to him continued, "We have a rule in Huxiao Village, that is, we only rob wealthy businessmen and corrupt officials, and never rob passers-by!"

When he said this, there was a hint of pride on his face.

He is a mountain bandit, but their Huxiao Village is different from other bandit villages!

Thinking of something, he scratched his head again with an embarrassed look, "Ahem, so we finally ran into you guys that day. You looked like wealthy businessmen, so we came out to rob you."

If he had known earlier that if he robbed a passerby, he would pack up the entire Tiger Roar Village and give it to him, he would definitely not provoke this terrifying and powerful young man...

Everything is over. Nan Yue did not blame the third in command or anything. Anyway, the whole village belongs to her now.

"So, actually, it's been a while since you've met anyone you can rob, right?"

"Yes." Zuo Yi nodded.

Nan Yue tapped the table rhythmically, analyzing word by word: "Qi County is located on the border of Wenzhou and borders Wuzhou. Wuzhou is located in the northwest and has many specialties. Many wealthy businessmen will travel through Qi County. Almost all the wealthy businessmen in Changxing County and even Wenzhou have made their fortunes by trading with Wuzhou."

"So even if you only rob some of the wealthy merchants passing by, you can still develop and expand Tiger Roar Village."

This is true, but the third boss has not yet come to his senses. What does this have to do with the fact that the store has not been open for a long time...

Zuo Yi's expression changed, as if he had discovered something was wrong after she reminded him...

Nan Yue is still going on.

"Going through Qi County is the fastest way. If nothing had happened, those wealthy businessmen would not easily give up this familiar road and take a time-consuming detour instead."

The big boss frowned and guessed, "Could it be that we scared them of robbing them?"

Zuo Yi immediately denied it, "No, you underestimated the courage of those wealthy businessmen."

Their Huxiao Village was established not long ago, only about two years ago.

Not only do they not rob the poor, they only steal things from the rich and never harm anyone's life.

Zuo Yi knew very well that no matter what he did, he couldn't be too extreme.

There are only so many people in their entire village, and there are so many wealthy businessmen coming and going, so they will not rob everyone who passes by.

Just like Nan Yue said, even if they grab a portion of it, it would be enough for them to live for a long time.

When bandits were rampant, he still dared to do business.

Logically speaking, those wealthy businessmen shouldn't be so scared that they won't take the road to Qi County...

He thought of something and looked up at Nan Yue, "Unless something happened."

But what exactly is going on…

Nan Yue's eyes darkened, her lips moved slightly, and she uttered a few words, "What if... it threatens your life?"

Money is important, but if you lose your life, no amount of money will be of any use.

Only when their lives are threatened will those wealthy businessmen prefer to take a longer route rather than go through Qi County.

The Third Master was still confused, "But we didn't kill anyone..."

The boss looked at him with disdain and said, "Go play somewhere else!"

Nan Yue’s analysis was very clear, and now even he understood it.

"You mean, someone is targeting us?"

Nan Yue hummed, this boss is not stupid.

Zuo Yi immediately said: "If we think in this way, then the people who are targeting us must be very familiar with the terrain of Qi County and also know us very well."

They are the only bandit group in the entire Qi County now.

Because the leader was injured, they rarely left the village, so they couldn't detect anyone pretending to be from their Tiger Roar Village.

But he still had a question.

Why did they pretend to be them and kill the wealthy businessman passing by...

The eldest boss thought for a moment and guessed, "Is it someone from the government?"

The only people he could think of who had a huge grudge against them were the Qi County government.

As soon as the words were spoken, someone denied it.

"wrong."

"wrong!"

Zuo Yi and Chu Yu said almost in unison.

Although Chu Yu was sitting with them, he had not spoken a word, and only now did several people notice him.

"You are the boss, but you don't even think about what benefit it will get for government officials to do such things?" Chu Yu rolled his eyes.

If he still acts as the boss like this, he might as well give his seat to his sister.

Zuo Yi looked surprised. He didn't expect that the sister of the Transport Supervisor was so smart. No wonder the adults brought her along to listen.

But why are the words so unpleasant to the ear?

Unlike his rough appearance, Gao Hu had an unexpectedly good temper. He was not angry at all when a little girl said something to him.

"Who do you think the second one will be?"

"It can't be the government. The wealthy merchants passed by Qi County and brought a lot of benefits to Qi County. The government was too busy protecting them, so how could they hurt them?"

Zuo Yi knew his own limitations. It was true that Huxiaozhai posed a threat to Yang Su, but it was impossible to pretend that they had killed a wealthy businessman just to put the blame on them. It would do more harm than good to Qi County.

The Third Master was overwhelmed by their analysis and said in a rough voice, "Who is it and why? Tell us!"

Anyway, he didn't find anything wrong.

Nan Yue already had the answer in her mind. The corners of her lips curled slightly, but there was no warmth in her eyes. She said in a faint voice, "Guess who is the most troubled person when the rich businessman no longer goes to Qi County?"

Zuo Yi's eyes lit up, and he suddenly understood, "Yang Su!"

finally understood!

It was not the Huxiao Village that was targeted; the Huxiao Village was just a pawn involved.

A chess piece specifically used to suppress Yang Su!

But at the same time, he felt a chill on his back, and even his hair stood up...

This person hiding in the dark is so calculating and vicious.

Sacrificing the lives of the wealthy businessmen and their entire village, just to target Yang Su.

He prided himself on being smart, and thought that the Tiger Roar Village was well hidden and would not be discovered.

but now……

Zuo Yi only felt that he was being pulled into a fog, as if a big knife would fall on his head in the next second.

If Nan Yue hadn't reminded him, he would never have noticed it.

"I'm afraid that Tiger Roar Village has been exposed a long time ago. It's no longer safe!" Zuo Yi stood up and said seriously, "We must find the next location immediately!"

No matter what the purpose is against Yang Su, their Huxiao Village will be harmed!
