Chapter 138 The toad wants to eat swan meat
At this moment, a burly bandit pushed the door open aggressively. The door hit the wall with a loud "bang", which made everyone in the room tremble.
He stretched out his thick finger, pointed it straight at Ye Zirou, and shouted loudly: "You, come out, our boss wants to see you."
When everyone heard that the bandit wanted to see Ye Zirou, they all stood up immediately.
Li Mao was about to take a step forward, but saw Mo Tianyu rushing forward and standing firmly in front of Ye Zirou.
His action immediately attracted the attention of Mo Tianyu and Ye Zirou.
Mo Tianyu turned his head slightly, looked at Ye Zirou with a firm and gentle gaze and said softly, "I will go with you."
However, before Ye Zirou could respond, the bandit spoke loudly and impatiently.
"Our boss has clearly stated that he only wants to see this woman and has not mentioned meeting anyone else. You all should stay here obediently and don't have any other ideas!"
Mo Tianyu had no intention of backing down. He still stood straight, blocking the front firmly, and spoke in a firm tone.
"Go tell your boss that if you want to see us, we will all meet together, otherwise don't even think about seeing any of us."
The bandit was obviously intimidated by Mo Tianyu's aura, and stood there at a loss for a moment.
After a while, he seemed to come to his senses and realized that he couldn't make the decision, so he scratched his head and said.
"Then you guys wait here first, I will go back and report to the boss.
Xiaoqing and Xiaoling, Longyi and Longsan as well as Mrs. Zhang and her family all came forward.
Wu Yong, Zheng Fangxing and Jiang Yuze stood aside and also wanted to step forward and say a few words of advice.
But the crowd was so crowded that it was difficult to get close, so they could only watch anxiously from a distance.
"Miss, you must not go with them." Xiaoqing held Ye Zirou's arm tightly and said anxiously, "Those bandits are cruel and ruthless. Who knows what they are up to!"
"Yes, Miss Ye, who knows what they want to do? You must not go." Mrs. Zhang's face was full of anxiety. "What if something happens?"
"Pretty sister~" Xiaochuan also tightly grasped the hem of Ye Zirou's skirt and said in a crying voice, "I don't want you to leave. I'm scared."
"Rou'er, if you want to go, we'll go together." Mo Tianyu looked determined.
"Don't worry, everyone. They can't do anything to me." Ye Zirou patted Xiaoqing's hand gently and said with a smile.
Then, she exchanged a glance with Mo Tianyu, indicating that she had space and that he didn't need to worry.
Mo Tianyu also understood what Ye Zirou meant, but he frowned and said worriedly: "No, I'm worried, what if there is danger?"
Brother Zhang also spoke up.
"Yes, Miss Ye, let Brother Mo accompany you. This way, we can all feel a little more at ease."
Seeing how worried they were about her, Ye Zirou was touched and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
After a long while, the bandit came back panting.
"The boss has ordered you two to go together." The bandit said breathlessly.
Mo Tianyu and Ye Zirou were both tied up and went there. Along the way, they followed closely behind the bandit's younger brother, with two people guarding them on each side.
They kept looking around, carefully examining the environment, trying to find any chance to escape.
They saw a dark and damp cell in the corner, where many innocent people were imprisoned. Their faces were haggard, and their eyes were full of helplessness and despair.
And high up, a crudely built watchtower stood.
On the watchtower, the bandits were always alert to the movements around them. They kept walking back and forth, and the rough wooden boards under their feet made a heart-pounding creaking sound in the wind.
At this time, Ye Zirou quietly leaned close to Mo Tianyu's ear and said in a low voice: "Tianyu, the defense here is so strict, and there are so many innocent people trapped. We must find a way to rescue them."
Mo Tianyu nodded slightly and responded: "Yes, but in the current situation, we must not act rashly."
Ye Zirou nodded.
"You two, stop whispering!" a bandit shouted viciously, "If you keep talking, you'll be in trouble!"
Mo Tianyu and Ye Zirou quickly fell silent and pretended to be obedient.
In the spacious hall, Bai Wan and Bai Qian were talking to each other.
"Brother, tell me, who are the woman and the man? Why did those people insist on taking the man's head?"
"Don't worry about their origins! Since we have taken their money, we have to do things for them." Bai Wan's expression was serious and his tone was unquestionable.
"But brother, that man only ordered to kill the man, and didn't say anything about attacking the woman. I think the woman is very pretty..." Bai Qian said, with a sly smile unconsciously appearing on his face, and that smile revealed malicious intentions.
Bai Qian continued, "Brother, why don't we not kill that woman and bring her back to the village to be my wife, wouldn't that be fun?"
Bai Wan glared at him and scolded him, "Don't think about these crooked thoughts all day long, get the business done first."
Bai Qian did not give up, and approached Bai Wan, saying flatteringly: "Brother, you see I still don't have a wife, this woman is really pretty, if it works out, I will be devoted to you forever."
Bai Wan looked at Bai Qian's evil smile, and after a moment's silence, he said, "Boy, if you really like that girl, after you deal with that guy, you can marry her as your wife."
Bai Qian was delighted when he heard this and said excitedly, "Brother, that's great! I'll thank you after it's done."
Bai Wan nodded slightly and said, "Don't be too happy too soon. Let's finish the matter at hand first. I'm afraid that man is not someone who can be easily dealt with. We have to be careful."
Bai Qian patted his chest and assured: "Don't worry, big brother, we have so many brothers here, why should we be afraid of them?"
At this moment, Ye Zirou and Mo Tianyu slowly walked into the hall, only to see a burly man with a full beard sitting on a tiger-skin chair. It was their boss Bai Wan, who looked at them sharply.
Standing next to him was a woman with a graceful figure and beautiful face.
The second in command, Bai Qian, sat steadily on a chair below.
"Hmph, you are quite courageous." Bai Wan snorted coldly.
Ye Zirou took a step forward and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, "Boss, I wonder why you are looking for me?"
