Chapter 48 Where is your lair?

Chapter 48 Where is your home base?

Kong Linghong's speed was too fast. Just as Shen Yunyao was about to explain, he had already left. In desperation, she could only put away the jade pendant first and talk later.

Back in the village, the villagers saw Shen Yunyao returning in a carriage, and many people were so curious that they followed behind.

Shen Yunyao ignored everyone's looks and went home directly.

When she got home, the courtyard door was locked. She guessed that her mother had gone to another courtyard, so she took out the key and opened the door.

Mrs. Liu was called home by a child in the village. She saw a carriage parked at the entrance of the courtyard, and wondered in her mind whose carriage it belonged to.

When she entered the door, she didn't recognize Shen Yunyao, "Who are you and why do you have the key to my house?"

Before Shen Yunyao could speak, she said again: "Ayao, you look so similar in your dress."

Shen Yunyao looked surprised, "How did you know?"

"Does my own child know? First of all, the outline of your face will not change, and your eyes and ears will not change. It is easy to recognize."

Shen Yunyao thought to herself, this is really the ability of identification that only relatives have.

She told Mr. Liu about the purchase of another fifteen acres of land, and gave all the land deeds to Mr. Liu for safekeeping.

At night, Shen Yunyao thought about what happened in the past two days.

It is difficult to find the person who chronically poisoned her. But that person will definitely keep an eye on her. If she does not show symptoms of poisoning, I believe that person will take action again. When the time comes, if there are clues, he will be caught.

This incident also revealed that she urgently needs to update her medical knowledge. After all, many plants and animals here are different from modern ones, and she needs to re-understand their effectiveness.

However, it is difficult to find medical books here. Maybe next time, you can trade with Mu Hanxiao.

A few days later, the village kiln produced the first batch of bricks and tiles.

The clan leader promised to give priority to the Liu family for free, so the Liu family started building a house and hired people from the village to build a house for their family.

Shen Yunyao felt that the villagers might not be able to build the house she wanted, so she would have to find someone in the town to build a house specifically.

Mrs. Liu saw the courtyard design provided by Shen Yunyao and understood what she meant, so she asked someone to help find a construction team.

The best construction team in the town was invited, and the people hired in the village could only serve as helpers. Liu hired several women to cook.

From time to time, Shen Yunyao takes time to go up the mountain and make waterwheel parts from the wood she cut previously.

When she encounters golden pheasants or spiritual rabbits, she will also hunt them to provide extra meals for the people building the house.

Many people say that building a house for others makes you more tired, but building a house for Shen Yunyao's family makes you more powerful as you build it.

There was a sound of horses honking from far away. Shen Yunyao was pouring mung bean water for the helpers. It sounded like a herd of horses entering the village, and she felt puzzled.

"Hand over all your money!"

There are dozens of men on horseback, each holding a sword in his hand. They are very fierce and rough-looking.

Shen Yunyao was speechless. In such a remote place, there were actually bandits. The key question was why did they come directly to his home to ask for money?

The address where the new house was built was very close to the old house. The people who built the house were frightened and scattered.

Bandits blocked the door of the old house.

Mrs. Liu said: "Guys, don't be impulsive. I'll get the money."

Shen Yunyao asked: "Why did you come directly to my house?"

"Nonsense! Who doesn't know that your family is rich now? They are opening a shop and opening a business." One of the gangsters said.

Shen Yunyao said: "You are quite well informed. Who tipped off the news?"

"Nonsense, we heard it ourselves. If you talk nonsense again, I'll chop you up! Who are you? Are you Shen Yunyao?"

Shen Yunyao raised her eyebrows slightly, "Yes, what's wrong? Are you so famous then?"

The bandit leader said: "Someone bought your head for three hundred taels. The man said you were brave and not like a country boy, and it seems that you are."

"Is the price too low? If you only want these three hundred taels, you really don't know. With my stupid head, I can earn it back for you in just a few days."

Shen Yunyao is a little dissatisfied, which means that she has no value!

In modern times, her assassination price ranks in the top five on the assassination list.

The bandit leader snorted, "We also have to keep our credibility. Since we promised our employer, we will definitely do it. So, I'm sorry, I'll die soon!"

At this time, Ms. Liu came out of the house and said, "This is all our family's belongings." She took out one hundred taels.

The leader of the gangsters was dissatisfied, "You want to send us away with just such a small amount of money? Brothers, go into the house and search, let them know the price of deceiving us, and kill them without mercy!"

Shen Yunyao said: "No, I know where the money is. I'll go in and get it. Don't hurt my family. You can't find it even if it's hidden deep. Can you buy my life with that money?"

Before she went in, she told Mrs. Liu and whispered: "Mom, stay away from them first."

The bandit leader snorted coldly, "Take it out first and look at it before talking."

These bandits did not violently pull Liu, perhaps because they thought she was a lamb waiting to be slaughtered and ignored her.

Shen Yunyao entered the room and took out her usual sword from the space before rushing out.

When the bandit leader saw Shen Yunyao holding a sword in his hand, he smiled playfully and said, "Interesting!"

He waved his hand to the bandits behind him and said, "Cut her. Take the sword."

The bandits raised their knives and struck at Shen Yunyao.

Ding-dang--wow--

The knife was broken in one place.

The bandits looked at the half-cut knives in their hands and froze on the spot.

Shen Yunyao used sword moves to cut many wounds on their bodies, but was not in a hurry to kill them.

Just hold the sword and wait for them to come to their senses.

"What kind of magical weapon is this? It's so powerful!"

"This sword and machete are like cutting tofu. It's so powerful, I must snatch it!"

Finally these sounds woke them up and reminded them that they were fighting.

"Do you still want to fight?"

"What to fight? How to fight?"

"That's right, the flesh on my body is not as strong as a knife!"

The bandits were shouting and picking up the broken knives.

Seeing this, the bandit leader smiled and said to Shen Yunyao: "Just wait, keep that sword for me first, and I will get it back later."

Shen Yunyao said calmly: "Where is your home base? I will send it to you when the time comes!"

The bandit leader said: "That's not a bad tone. Just wait! Brothers are leaving!"

The bandits roared, whipped their whips, and left shouting.

Shen Yunyao did not kill them with a sword, but felt that these bandits were a bit unprofessional and the robbery process was too funny.

"Mom, I'm going to report to the official on horseback!" Shen Yunyao took out the horse and got on the horse's back.

Mrs. Liu was furious, "What did you say? I'll let the villagers go. What are you going to do as a girl?"

Shen Yunyao suspected that these bandits were the bandits from the nearby valley, the group of people Mu Hanxiao mentioned.

She didn't explain any more, just said, "I'll be back soon, don't worry!" and left on horseback.

If I don’t pursue it, I really won’t be able to catch up.

The bandits rode for half an hour to the valley, disappearing without leaving any trace.

Shen Yunyao followed from a distance, but clearly saw that this group of people disappeared between two big trees.

The scene was like a time travel scene on TV.

This was her first time seeing him in real life, and it was an eye-opener for her to come out with him this time.

This valley is like a paradise on earth.

The mountains are towering into the clouds, there is mist in the mountains, lush trees, and nice birds chirping from time to time.

If I hadn't followed the bandits this time, this place would have been really hard to find.
