The Moon is Full in the Traveling House

Chapter 110: Road robbery

Su Lun and others continued to move forward. When they passed a valley, they keenly noticed something was wrong.

"Sir, something seems wrong ahead." Qingyang said to Su Lun in the carriage.

Su Lun pulled open the car curtain and took a look at the terrain outside. He was also shocked. There were mountains on both sides and there was only one way to go. They were already in the middle of the road, so it would be inappropriate to retreat. However, it was unusually quiet outside.

Su Lun's heart trembled, and he ordered, "Get ready and pass quickly."

"Yes." Qingyang and others silently grasped their weapons and rode their horses to continue moving forward.

Su Lun lowered the car curtain, patted Guoguo's shoulder soothingly and said softly, "Guoguo, if there is any danger later, you just lie down under the seat and don't do anything rash, understand?"

Hearing this, Guo Guo grabbed Su Lun's sleeve tightly and asked nervously, "Brother Su, what's going on outside? Is there any danger?"

Su Lun patted his hand and comforted him, "It's no big deal, we just need to be careful." Guoguo nodded, indicating that he understood.

The carriage sped up and quickly passed through the valley. Just as they were about to leave, a whistle suddenly sounded. Su Lun's face changed, knowing that this was a sign of encountering robbers. Sure enough, a group of ragged people emerged from the surrounding mountains, holding machetes, hoes and sticks, and blocked their way aggressively.

"I opened this mountain and planted these trees. If you want to pass this way, you have to leave money for passage!" shouted a masked man in the lead.

Qingyang and the others dismounted and stood guard in front of the carriage. Su Lun also got off the carriage. He looked at the robbers in front of him with a sneer on his face.

"Who are you? How dare you rob people here!" Su Lun asked coldly.

"Haha, you ask who we are? We are the masters of this valley. As long as you hand over the money, you can pass through here safely. Otherwise..." The leading man in black threatened.

Su Lun's eyes turned cold. He certainly would not give in easily. Moreover, the clothes and weapons of these people did not look like robbers, but more like refugees.

"Hmph, if you want money, that depends on whether you have the ability to do it." Su Lun said lightly.

The masked man in the lead seemed to be angered by Su Lun's contemptuous tone. He brandished the big knife in his hand, rushed towards Su Lun with his eyes wide open, and cursed: "Stinky boy, I will teach you a lesson today!"

Seeing this, Su Lun showed a disdainful smile on his face and calmly ordered the people around him: "Don't hurt anyone's life." After that, he flashed and faced the masked man. At the same time, the other three people also acted quickly and started a fierce battle with the rest of the "robbers".

This group of so-called "robbers" may seem aggressive, but in fact they are just a mob. Their moves are chaotic and have no rules at all. However, Su Lun and others are different. They are all elites of Dashun who have undergone rigorous training and have experienced many battles. When facing these enemies, they seem to be at ease.

In just a few moves, these "robbers" were beaten to a pulp, falling to the ground one after another, covering their heads and faces and groaning in pain. Su Lun and his men were very measured in their attacks, not hurting their lives, but also making it impossible for them to stand up and resist for the time being.

Seeing the "robbers" rolling on the ground, Su Lun's anger did not subside. He walked forward and coldly questioned one of the masked men: "You are not bandits at all. Who are you? Why are you pretending to be robbers and robbing people on the road?"

The masked man trembled all over when he heard Su Lun's questioning. He stammered, "Please spare my life, dear friends. We are villagers from nearby. We have been out of food for several days. We are really desperate. We have no choice but to resort to this desperate measure..." As he spoke, he took off the black scarf on his face, revealing a face full of fear.

In fact, Su Lun had already guessed something in his heart, but when he heard these words, he couldn't help but frowned: "As far as I know, the court should have allocated some food for disaster relief. Why are so many of you out of food?"

"We really didn't receive any food. If we weren't so hungry, who would be willing to become bandits? Sirs, please let us go. We just want to find something to eat to survive. We don't mean to hurt anyone. Please." After the man said this, he actually knelt down and began to kowtow for mercy.

Su Lun was frightened and took a step back. Looking at the scene in front of him, his eyes revealed a trace of reluctance and helplessness. After hesitating for a moment, he turned and walked to another carriage and took out some dry food from it.

"You seem so pitiful, so I'll give you these foods. I hope you won't do such things again in the future." Su Lun handed them the dry food in his hand.

When the villagers saw the food, their eyes sparkled with greed. They took off their face scarves and thanked Su Lun and the others. Then they couldn't wait to pick up the food and devoured it.

Su Lun looked at the appearance of these people and couldn't help feeling a little helpless, but he didn't plan to stay any longer. After all, they had more important tasks to complete.

"Let's go." After saying this, Su Lun turned around and walked towards the carriage with the three of them.

However, just as they approached the carriage, something unexpected happened.

A villager holding a long knife rushed over silently from the side. His eyes flashed with madness and determination, as if he had made up his mind to kill the people in front of him.

Wang Shen, who was walking at the back, sensed the danger. He stared with wide eyes, looking at the villager rushing towards him in horror. Without thinking too much, he quickly dodged to the side, but was still cut by the sharp blade, and blood gushed out instantly.

This sudden change surprised everyone, and the originally calm atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Su Lun quickly reached out and grabbed Wang Shen, asking with concern: "Brother Wang, how do you feel? Is the wound serious?"

Wang Shen frowned and replied with a wry smile: "It's just a cut, nothing serious."

At the same time, the leading villager finally came to his senses, his eyes wide open, and he shouted at the person who had just attacked him: "Second brother, what are you doing?"

The attacker tightly grasped the long knife in his hand, his face showed a fierce look, veins popped out on his forehead, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Brother, they all look rich. There must be a lot of treasures in the car. As long as we kill them, we will never go hungry again. And they have seen our appearance. If they report us to the government, won't we be dead?"

Hearing this, the leading villager's eyes widened and he asked angrily, "How could you be so confused about good and evil and repay kindness with hatred?" Then, he knelt down in front of Su Lun and others and begged bitterly, "My lords, please forgive Lao Er's ignorance and impulsiveness. He was also confused for a moment. I beg you to show mercy and let him go this time!"
