Chapter 39: Caught by bandits and taken to bandits’ den

The further northwest you go, the more steep the official road becomes.

Shen Rudu wondered if they were going the wrong way. The land was full of dead grass and gravel, and there were flying sand and rocks in front of them. Was this the official road?

"Ah!" The carriage bumped again, and Aunt Lian was helpless holding the scattered bun.

"Fortunately, we are riding in a carriage. If we walk, it will not be very tiring."

Shen Yan opened the curtain of the carriage and looked outside, at the desolate countryside and mountains. The desolation was visible even before he arrived in Liangzhou. Hey, Liangzhou still doesn't know what it looks like!

"I don't know how long it will take to get to Liangzhou. Don't sleep in the open in this place."

Shen Yan said: "In this place, there may be wild beasts or bandits or something like that at night."

"Bah, bah, bah, what do you mean by this? Can't there be so many officials protecting people?"

Mother Shen said immediately, complaining and glaring at Shen Yan with a crow's mouth!
After hearing what Father Shen said, Shen Ru felt a little worried. She had no way to go to the village, no store, and the inn was over there!
It's really a good thing but a bad thing. Once again, the large team missed the inn to stay, and the large group of people could only sleep in the wilderness!
The only thing that provided warmth and light was the bonfire, but the wind was strong at night and the flames seemed unstable.

In the middle of the night, the sudden appearance of torches and horses frightened everyone.

"The bandits are robbing someone!"

Shen Ru heard someone shouting, and then there was the sound of weapons exchanging weapons, and the sound of arrows piercing the air.

"Miss, there are bandits."

Uncle Fu said outside the carriage. After hearing this, Shen Ru immediately asked the family to stay in the carriage while he jumped out.

The official was already fighting with the bandits, and Shen Ru was looking at Cui Ti's side.

Cui Ti's guard was obviously a top-notch expert, but he would not take the initiative to deal with the bandits and would only stay by Cui Ti's carriage.

"Shen Ru, help!"

Chen Qing shouted, "If you hold on for half an hour, rescue will arrive."

In other words, Chen Qing sent the signal arrow.

"Master Chen, if I help you fight off the bandits, you should take more care of my family!"

Shen Ruke did not miss the opportunity to negotiate terms.

Chen Qing has a black face, when did this happen!

"Know!"

Shen Ru also stretched his hands and feet, which were quite itchy.

Just then a bandit rushed towards her, calling her a woman.

Shen Ruzhi took the sword thrown by Chen Qing, faced it head on, and knocked the bandit on horseback to the ground.

But these bandits obviously knew how to fight quickly. They casually grabbed a few female prisoners and then stood back.

"Master Chen, I'll go take a look too!"

As Shen Ru said that, she deliberately rushed in front of the bandit, and then slipped, as if she was out of strength.

How could the bandit let go of such an opportunity? He immediately reached out to fish it out, threw Shen Ru onto his horse, and then turned around and ran away.

Chen Qing's face turned even darker. Shen Ru must have done it on purpose!

As half of the bandits were killed and half escaped, government reinforcements also arrived.

"Ping'er, our Ping'er has disappeared. The bandits who killed Qian Dao have kidnapped our Ping'er!"

Qian was in shock, hugging her son Shen Feng, and the government counted people, only to find that Shen Ping was missing.

"My daughter is also missing, sir, my daughter was also taken away!"

"My wife is missing. These bandits are not human beings. My wife has already given birth to my children. How can I catch them!"

Shen Yan and Shen's mother were also looking for Shen Ru in a panic.

"Aru, where is Aru?"

"Master, madam, don't worry, the eldest lady should have followed the bandits to their bandit den!"

"What, why did Aru go to the bandits' den?" Shen's mother was shocked, holding Father Shen's hand and almost fell down.

Chen Qing had a gloomy look on his face, and the bandits were so ferocious that they actually killed more than a dozen officials and kidnapped many female prisoners.

"Shen Ru let the bandits take her away on purpose. I think she was planning to rescue all the women the bandits abducted."

"But our Aru is just a woman!"

Shen Yan looked around in fear, supported his wife, and clenched his fists.

Aunt Lian pulled Shen Xuan and Shen Nian, not daring to say anything, but with a worried look on her face.

"Master Chen, these gangsters have done many evil things. They killed so many officials this time. We can't leave the female prisoners abducted by them. We also ask Master Chen to keep an eye on these prisoners and wait for our return!"

The local government officials are ready to hunt down the bandits!
Chen Qing nodded and ordered the remaining officials to wait on the spot.

It was already dawn when Shen Ru was brought back to the bandits' den by the bandits.

"Hey, Shen Ping, you were caught too!"

When she saw the arrested people and Shen Ping, whose hair looked like straw, she was happy!

"Shen Ru, what are you happy about? Aren't you very powerful? How could you be caught?"

Shen Ping said with a black face.

Shen Ru smiled, how could she save these people if she didn't take this trip?
"Boss, one of these women is pretty cool."

Just when Shen Ru was looking around, there were a lot of footsteps.

After a while, she saw a burly and powerful man with beard being led down.

"Is it her?"

The bearded man was also blind in one eye, and the remaining eye stared at Shen Ru sinisterly and greedily.

"Yes, take the person into my house!"

In the eyes of the bandits, these female prisoners were just like commodities, and their words were full of contempt.

"Boss, that... other women..."

"They are all shady women. You can do whatever you want and sell them as soon as possible."

After the one-eyed dragon finished speaking, he stared at Shen Ruduo, and finally turned around and left, making a gesture to take the person away.

The cell door opened, and Shen Ru knew that if he left, the remaining people would be miserable.

Without any trace of ink, there was a direct click towards the protruding hand, and with the man's scream, Shen Ru kicked him away!
"You brought me here yourself. If you want to blame me, it's your lack of brains!"

Feng Qingyun spoke calmly, looking at the bandits rushing up, Shen Ru was very agile, and perfectly solved several bandits under the horrified eyes of Shen Ping and others behind him.

"You...what do you want to do?"

Seeing that his men had either broken legs or broken hands, each one wailing on the ground, the one-eyed dragon also panicked.

"You, you are not a prisoner!"

"No, I am!"

Shen Ru smiled slightly and said, "Let's go out, where are all the food in your village stored, and where are the gold, silver and jewelry?"

The one-eyed dragon was stunned, what does this mean?
But before he could respond, Shen Ru had already kicked him out.

"Ah, I thought you were so big, so you used a little more strength."

Seeing the one-eyed dragon flying some distance away, Shen Ru said sheepishly.

"Come on, hand over all your food to me."

"Are you... a bandit?"

The one-eyed dragon covered his chest and vomited a mouthful of blood. This woman was more ruthless than a bandit!
"I'm not, you are!"

Shen Ru said bluntly, "Anyway, your bandit den has been kicked by me, and you are going to eat prison food. Rather than wasting it, you might as well give it to me!"

Intimidating the one-eyed dragon, Shen Ru ransacked the bandits' den before the official arrival, then tied up all the bandits, and together with the other captured women, waited for the official arrival!
