Chapter 49 Setting a Trap

The two of them became more and more speculative, completely oblivious to Mo Qiubai standing beside him.

"You can still talk and laugh while serving a meal, Wan Duo, did I tell you not to leave the queue without my order."

Upon hearing Mo Qiubai's serious tone, Wan Duo straightened his body.

"I didn't mean it, Mr. Mo, don't be angry, I'll go back now."

After saying this, he ran away in a flash, like a rabbit.

Xie Cheng shook his head helplessly.

"You don't have to be so strict. After all, they just came to the escort team, and it's normal for them not to adapt."

"So just let them not get used to it? Are you going to make do with them all the time?"

Hearing these two cold rhetorical questions, Xie Cheng was immediately taken aback. She put the lunch box in her hand on the table, and her eyes were still fixed on Mo Qiubai.

"Why are you suddenly angry? I'm just talking casually. Don't take it seriously."

This dog man's temper is really getting worse every day, just like menstruation.

Seeing Xie Cheng muttering, Mo Qiubai turned his gaze aside.

"Ahem, I actually want to come here to help you get some food, nothing else."

Xie Cheng thought that he realized how cold his attitude was just now, and more than half of the bad emotions in his heart dissipated.

"It's okay, it's the same when I come."

Just when she was about to put the spoon into the rice bucket, Mo Qiubai pinched her wrist with two fingers.

"It's okay."

Men's strength is indeed stronger than women's, Xie Cheng couldn't break free at all, she could only watch helplessly as Mo Qiubai put down her sleeves.

"Be careful next time. After all, you are a woman. Of course, if you really feel hot, come and tell me. I will block you then."

Mo Qiubai's ears turned red when he said this, but Xie Cheng didn't notice at all.

"Understood, thank you for reminding me."

If this was in modern times, she would definitely be scolding.

But now she has traveled through time, to a dynasty where men were superior to women. If she did not abide by women's virtues, she might be thrown into a pig cage. She had no other wish but to die naturally.

When eating, Mo Qiubai carefully prepared a small stool for Xie Cheng, but it was very far away from other people.

Xie Cheng frowned when he saw the people eating delicious food not far away.

"Why are you so far away from them? It's so lively to eat together, and we can talk together."

Just when she was about to move the small bench over, Mo Qiubai suddenly stretched out his left arm.

"The group of men just finished training, and they are covered with stinky sweat. Are you sure you want to go there?"

Xie Cheng's body froze, and she seemed to smell a strange smell suddenly.

"Forget it, then I won't bother them."

She smiled awkwardly.

Seeing that Xie Cheng was finally willing to eat obediently, Mo Qiubai's expression relaxed a lot.

A week later, everyone's physical fitness and force value have been significantly improved.

They can drag stones weighing tens of kilograms to walk tens of kilometers, and they still have the remaining physical strength.

Mo Qiubai was very satisfied, he immediately struck while the iron was hot, and led the guards to set a trap at the entrance of Xiangshan Village.

These men dug several large holes in the ground and spread some hay on top.

Some bear traps were also placed in the nearby grass, and Xie Cheng deliberately sprinkled some medicinal powder on them.

"What do you use these powders for?"

Hearing this, Xie Cheng raised his eyebrows.

"You'll know then."

After completing a series of traps, all the humans were out of breath, and Mo Qiubai also mercifully let them go and didn't let them practice any more.

"Okay, everyone has worked hard today, go back and rest quickly, and come over early tomorrow."

The strong men wept with joy, their faces flushed with joy.

After dinner every night, Mo Qiubai would give them extra practice, and today the sun has risen from the west.

"Thank you, we will come over early tomorrow."

Seeing them all leave, Xie Cheng also went home with Mo Qiubai.

……

Gu Mansion.

A crackling sound came from the kitchen, and the two little maids outside the door were startled, their faces pale.

"Yuzhu, I don't want to stay here anymore, can I go?"

Hearing this, Yuzhu was shocked, and she immediately raised her index finger to her lips.

"You must not say such things, it will be bad if the master hears."

Mr. Gu who was in the study didn't hear what the two of them said, he was still out of breath, his lips were bright red.

"You are all a bunch of trash. You can't do such trivial things well. What's the use of you, you might as well die."

He waved his hands in the air.

Kneeling opposite Mr. Gu were the two leaders who went to Xiangshan Village today.

They said nothing, and dared not say anything of rebuttal at all.

After an unknown period of time, the study room became quiet. Mr. Gu sat slumped on a chair, with veins on his forehead.

"Go and find out the identity of that woman for me. Also, attack Xiangshan Village again tonight while the iron is hot, and destroy all their land."

Mr. Gu wanted to destroy all the crops that the villagers had planted on the land. Then they would definitely have nothing to harvest, nothing to sell in the market, and naturally no money to spend.

At that time, the villagers will definitely sign a voluntary land transfer document, but it is only a matter of dozens of silver, so he is still willing to give such a small amount of money.

Hearing Mr. Gu's words, the guards still hesitated.

"But today we have been discovered by the people of Xiangshan Village. If this time passes, it will be a bit too alarming."

They didn't know that their true identity had been discovered by Xie Cheng.

But Mr. Gu doesn't care about these things. If you delay for one more day, you will lose one day's money.

"Don't talk nonsense, do you want to go?"

The tone suddenly became a lot more gloomy, adding a tinge of terror to the study.

The guards quickly prostrated themselves on the ground: "I'm really sorry, Gu Laocai's subordinates will take people there now."

Hearing this, the smile on Old Master Gu's face disappeared completely, and the mottled candlelight shone on his face, putting a layer of gold on his eyelashes.

"You're only willing to give up if you have to come back and shoot, right?"

In the middle of the night, a group of guards gathered at the entrance of the mountain village, their movements and expressions were extremely vigilant.

"Brother, isn't it good for us to come here at this time?"
