Chapter 94
94 Fancy
Luo Cheng didn’t expect Li Xiaoran and her family to say that.
To be honest, Li Xiaoran and the others hiding was the greatest help to him.
After all, he could then deal with the people who came without scruples.
Li Xiaoran naturally knew this too, but she couldn’t think that way.
“Husband, we’re family! If we hide every time we encounter something and leave you alone outside to deal with it, are you willing to have such a family?”
Luo Cheng was stunned and didn’t know what to say.
“Besides, we might not be your burden! As long as we deal with it well, we can also help!”
With that, Li Xiaoran called her mother, Zhao Xiu, and her sister, Li Xiaoqing, over.
The family gathered together and listened to Li Xiaoran’s instructions.
In the orchard forest outside the house, eight people were quietly approaching Luo Cheng’s house.
“The heavens are really helping us! Previously, we were worried about where we should find a hidden place to stay. We didn’t expect to accidentally encounter it today. Look at this place. It’s far from the village. There’s such a large orchard foresr around the mountain cove. This place can be guarded and we can escape into the mountains. It’s really the best place for us to live!” A short man with a mustache said excitedly.
“Speaking of which, it’s all thanks to Aunt Cui! If she hadn’t taken a fancy to a woman who cooked tasty noodles, we wouldn’t have returned,” the leader observed the situation not far away and said.
At that moment, footsteps sounded. The eight people hiding here were instantly alert.
When the person got closer and saw the person’s face, the group relaxed.
“Boss, I’ve asked around! A hunter named Luo Cheng lives in this mountain cove. He married the granddaughter of the Li family. I’ve asked. There are only six people in this family!” The person was called Sun Wukong. He had a sharp chin, so he had such a nickname.
The leader, Ma Zhao, recalled Sun Wukong’s words carefully.
“Previously, we split into two groups to eat noodles. How many people were busy at the noodle stall?”
Lu An, who had a mustache, recalled.
“One who cooks noodles, one who cleans up the dishes, and there’s a young man and a middle-aged couple!”
“In that case, there are only five people in total!” Ma Zhao calculated and said, “There are nine people on our side! I think it’s fine. We can try!”
“Boss, the people in the village said that Luo Cheng is very powerful. Think about it, the hunters in the village must be good at fighting. Are you sure we can do it?” Sun Wukong thought of something and said.
Ma Zhao thought of something when he heard Sun Wukong’s words.
“In that case, let’s invite Aunt Cui over! With Aunt Cui around, we should be able to take down this place!”
“But Aunt Cui has to watch that girl. She might not come!” Lu An thought of something and reminded him.
Ma Zhao thought for a moment and said, “Tell Aunt Cui about the terrain and situation here. I think she’ll definitely be willing to help! Besides, isn’t she just a girl? She’ll be rendered unconscious after being drugged. It won’t matter if we bring her along!”
“Then I’ll go! My legs are faster!” Lu An said as she walked out of the forest to look for Aunt Cui.
When Aunt Cui heard Lu An’s words, she was immediately interested.
“Is that place really what you said?”
“Aunt Cui, how can I, Lu An, lie to you?! Go take a look and you’ll know. Otherwise, our boss wouldn’t be worried about failing and ask for your help! That place is really nice! With this place, we won’t have to hide everywhere in the future!” Lu An persuaded, “Why don’t you bring this girl along to take a look? If you think that place isn’t good, you can bring her away!”
Aunt Cui thought about it and finally nodded.
“Alright, I’ll make this trip because of that girl who knows how to cook noodles!”
As Aunt Cui spoke, she pulled the girl whose hands were tied with ropes.
“Let’s go. Don’t delay. If you delay my matters, I’ll make you suffer!”
When the girl who had asked Li Xiaoran for help earlier heard this, although she was very angry, she could only listen obediently.
She had suffered a lot when she was disobedient previously. Now, she had learned her lesson.
Soon, the three of them met up with Ma Zhao and the others in the grove.
“Aunt Cui, look, it’s this house not far ahead! This place is really nice. It’s as if it was built for us!” Ma Zhao introduced it to Aunt Cui.
Aunt Cui handed the rope in her hand to Lu An and stood there looking at the house not far away.
“Not bad. It’s indeed very good! You guys are really lucky to have found such a good place!” Aunt Cui smiled and said happily.
When Ma Zhao heard Aunt Cui’s words, he immediately laughed.
“Since Aunt Cui also likes this place, I’ll have to trouble Aunt Cui to take action today! The other party is someone called Luo Cheng. He’s a hunter and knows some martial arts! Just in case, I’ll ask Aunt Cui to guard this place. If we really encounter anyone troublesome, I’ll leave it to you, Aunt Cui!”
“Sure, sure! Do whatever you want. With me around, I guarantee that you’ll be able to get this place!” Aunt Cui said with a smile.
With Aunt Cui around, Ma Zhao felt more confident. Then, he said to the surrounding buddies.
“Let’s go!”
The nine of them took something from somewhere and quietly approached the Luo family.
Upon closer inspection, there were stones, clubs, and scimitars or scythes.
Ma Zhao took out a dagger and looked around warily.
At this moment, Luo Cheng’s house was quiet. Smoke was still rising from the chimney, but the house was silent.
Ma Zhao gestured for a buddy behind him to scout the way first, so someone immediately went up.
As the wall was a little high and the surroundings were very smooth, the person tried his best but didn’t manage to climb over.
“Go help!” Ma Zhao waved and said.
Soon, two more went.
The three of them finally managed to push one of them over the wall.
However, as soon as the person flipped over, they heard a thud and then nothing.
