All of a sudden, it blocked all the paths.
When Cao Fei saw this scene, the hope in his heart was gone.
He had defended against everything, but he did not expect that someone would beat him to it.
He immediately calmed down and shouted with his fists crossed,"I don't know which hero you are, but Cao Fei of Yanggu County will pass through here. I hope you can be magnanimous and make things convenient for me!”
"Hahaha!"
As soon as Cao Fei finished speaking, a burst of laughter came from the forest.
The two groups of people stood on the road and confronted each other.
With the help of the light, the people on both sides were secretly sizing up each other, analyzing each other's strength and identity.
There were about a dozen people blocking the way. They were all dressed differently, and the weapons in their hands were all strange. Some were holding half-inch-thick wood-chopping knives, some were holding red-tasseled spears, and some were holding clubs.
They didn't look like bandits, but more like hunters and farmers.
On Cao Fei's side, there were seven or eight bailiffs in green robes. Each of them had a podao and was leading four or five horses. The coolies behind them were bare-chested and each of them had a large saber.
After seeing the situation clearly, the bailiffs at the back were no longer afraid.
Someone came out and shouted," Where did this stupid thief come from? He's not at home hugging his wife to sleep, but learning to rob. Why don't you polish your dog eyes and think about it? Hurry up and get lost. Grandpa is happy and won't argue with you."”
Cao Fei saw that the yamen runner who shouted was in his twenties and was probably instructed by his advisor, so he simply crossed his arms and watched quietly.
A person stood out from the side blocking the way, his voice not weak at all.
"Pah! Coming out to mingle, you must know the rules. This Twin Dragon Mountain is our clan's territory. If you want to pass through here, you have to leave a toll.”
The bailiff then replied,"Haha, how much is the toll? Tell us and let us hear it and consider it."”
Seeing that the other party had many people with weapons in each hand, it was obvious that they were not easy to deal with. Immediately, they felt a little weak and their voices weakened.
However, in the outside world, it was okay to lose people, but not face.
He could only grit his teeth and reply.
"Your people, stand to the side first. Put down your weapons and don't resist. Let us check the goods and leave behind 10% of the goods, and we won't make things difficult for you. Otherwise, when my big leader comes out, you won't be able to bear the consequences.”
As soon as the robber finished speaking, the bailiff laughed.
The people in front of him were clearly a group of nobodies, but they actually learned from the bandits and started a business without capital.
In the past, he had only heard of wolves eating sheep, but he had never thought that a lynx would dare to pretend to be a tiger.
What a joke.
As for the Big Boss they were talking about, no one took him to heart.
You are all this kind of trash.
How strong can your Big Boss be?
I'm afraid that even without my chief stepping out, each of us can make your chief cry and go home to find his mother with a punch.
With this thought, everyone's initial nervousness gradually relaxed.
Some of them even thought of robbing the other party.
"Chief Cao, don't let them look at the goods.”
At some point, the advisor had sneaked up to Cao Fei and whispered a reminder.
"I know!"
Of the three carts, two were filled with supplies. If Cao Fei guessed correctly, the other cart was the goods that the magistrate had plundered from Ximen Manor.
At least a few thousand taels of silver.
If the bandits in the way knew about this, they would probably blush on the spot. If someone died, the debt would be cleared, and no one would be able to escape.
Cao Fei did not dare to be careless about the fact that everyone did not take these bandits seriously. If this was the Twin Dragon Mount, then the big leader they were talking about would probably be a difficult person to deal with.
It was too early to be happy now.
After the two sides shouted, the negotiations broke down. The people from the county government consciously raised their weapons and gathered together.
The robber on the other side also saw that something was wrong. He immediately turned around and asked the people behind him to go back and call for help.
"The idea is tricky. Quickly go and invite the big boss out.”
The two sides were in a stalemate.
A moment later, a few more torches appeared behind the robbers. The leader was bareheaded and topless, holding a Buddhist staff.
Before he arrived, a loud voice could be heard.
"You ignorant birds can't even handle a small matter properly and disturb your grandfather's sleep. You really deserve a beating.”
This sentence was directed at his own people.
The person who was scolded did not dare to retort. He just held the torch and followed behind. He apologized and complained," Big Boss, we stopped a group of strong people this time. They are not easy to get along with. We have to ask Big Boss to come out."”
The big boss arrived in front of Cao Fei.
When he got closer, Cao Fei realized that this fellow's chest was black and had a patch of thick chest hair.
He had broad shoulders, long hands, and a fierce-looking face.
Gradually, she matched the bald man in the original novel with the person in front of her.
