C52 The Poorest Bandit in History



C52 The Poorest Bandit in History

3Ye Mingyang looked at the smiling white-clothed man in front of him. Although this man was a martial artist, he gave him a strange feeling.     2

    

"I'm quite satisfied. Come and greet me." After Ye Mingyang finished speaking, he covered his mouth with his hand and yawned. He looked a little sleepy.    

    

The white-clothed man looked at the people around him and sighed helplessly. He said, "Go, bring him in."    

    

When everyone heard this, although they were somewhat unwilling, when they heard that the big brother in front of them had already spoken, they still obediently did as he said.    

    

They could only see the crowd slowly walking towards Ye Mingyang.    

    

"Hold on, you don't even have that sedan, how can you welcome me in?"    

    

"This..." When the crowd heard this request, they were somewhat speechless. In this White Spirit Village, other than more than twenty people, how could there be a sedan chair?    

    

"Sir, there is no sedan chair in this mountain village. Can you exchange it for something else?" A person walked out from the crowd. That person had a sharp and thin face. This person was the seventh brother. He rubbed his hands together. He looked at Ye Mingyang with a fawning expression.    

    

After Ye Mingyang heard this, he thought for a while and continued, "How can I not have a sedan? I am an important guest here. Don't tell me you are here to receive important guests?" Ye Mingyang's eyes couldn't help but turn cold.    

    

When the seventh brother heard this, he couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart. How could there be a sedan in this mountain?    

    

He stood where he was, with a deep frown, as if he was thinking of something. Not long later, that face was almost crumpled up.    

    

"It's fine if there's no palanquin. Why don't you come over and ride me like a horse? Just carry me in." Ye Mingyang looked at Seventh Brother as if he had thought of something.    

    

"This..." Although Seventh Brother was unwilling, he still walked over slowly.    

    

Immediately, he knelt down and placed the two hands in front of him on the ground. He said to Ye Mingyang with a charming smile, "Sir, is this okay?"    

    

"This..." Ye Mingyang did not know whether to laugh or cry. He originally wanted to tease this group of people. That was why he made such a seemingly shameless request. He did not expect this guy to really kneel down.    

    

"No need. Get up. Your body is so small. Don't put my butt in pain." Ye Mingyang waved his hand, signaling the fifth brother to get up.    

    

When the fifth brother heard this, he hurriedly got up and looked at Ye Mingyang with some gratitude in his eyes.    

    

The man in white stood at the side. He had been quietly looking at this young man. He knew that this young man's strength was far above his. If this young man wanted to get rid of him, it would only be a matter of raising his hand.    

    

But now, this man was like this? Was he playing cat and mouse, teasing him?    

    

Ye Mingyang looked at the man in white and said, "Looks like you are the big boss of this stronghold. What's your name?"    

    

The man in white said, "My name is Liu. My name is Lau Xuyan."    

    

" Oh? Lau Xuyan? " Ye Mingyang thought. The name sounded nice, as if he had heard it somewhere before.    

    

"Where are you from?" Ye Mingyang looked at Lau Xuyan and asked.    

    

Lau Xuyan cupped his hands and said, "I am from the three big families of Star Sculpting City, the Lau family."    

    

After Ye Mingyang finished speaking, he suddenly realized something. Lau Xuyan, wasn't this the second son of the second son who escaped from the Lau family five years ago?    

    

That man was also a turbid man. He actually fell in love with a prostitute from the Smoke Flower Building. After that, he took the money from his family and escaped from the Star Sculpting City with the prostitute.    

    

When the patriarch of the Lau family heard about this, he was furious. He immediately sent out a few warriors from the seven major sects. He went to hunt down these two men and swore to catch them. Finally, he heard that Lau Xuyan and the hooker had jumped off the cliff together. He was afraid that both of them had died. In the end, there was nothing else to say.    

    

Ye Mingyang immediately said, "Are you the Lau Xuyan who escaped from the Lau family five years ago?"    

    

The man in white nodded, indicating that he was indeed the Lau Xuyan that Ye Mingyang was talking about.    

    

Ye Mingyang looked at Liu Xu's pair of warm eyes, which emitted a faint glow under the moonlight. He couldn't help but snort coldly, "Humph, young master, you are such a good young master. How dare you be a robber here?"    

    

When Lau Xuyan heard this, a trace of bitterness arose in his heart.    

    

When he was being chased, he had also managed to survive. However, the beautiful woman beside him had already lost her breath.    

    

Everyone was listening to their conversation from the side. After listening to their conversation, they couldn't help but feel a little shocked. They never thought that the big brother they had spent so much time with was actually a young master from the Lau family in Star Sculpting City.    

    

Lau Xuyan recalled the past and couldn't help but feel a little melancholy.    

    

Then he thought of something and said to Ye Mingyang, "May I ask, how did my White Spirit Village offend you?"    

    

Ye Mingyang looked at the mountain in the distance and said faintly, "Have you been to a small village called Little Stone Village today? You robbed a house there."    

    

Lau Xuyan thought of the village this morning and said, "Today, my White Spirit Village did steal something from Little Stone Village. However, it's not like what you said about robbing houses. None of us were able to harm a person's life there. "    

    

After listening to Lau Xuyan's words, Ye Mingyang looked at the scene he saw in the small Stone Village. Indeed, not a single house had been destroyed, and there were no traces of blood in the village.    

    

When he thought of this, Ye Mingyang's pair of cold eyes slowly eased up. He said, "En, you really didn't kill anyone, but the people use food as the sky. You stole the villagers' food and livestock, what do you plan to let them eat?! Are you going to starve them to death? "    

    

Lau Xuyan was not stupid. He heard what Ye Mingyang said. It seemed that this man didn't intend to destroy his White Spirit Village. He said to Ye Mingyang, "This is my mistake. I robbed them of their food. I am willing to pay double the amount. "    

    

"Only double? "Ye Mingyang narrowed his eyes. An ice-cold killing intent emerged from deep within his eyes.    

    

"This..." Lau Xuyan immediately sighed and said, "Please follow me. I will bring you to my White Spirit Village to take a look." After saying that, he raised his hand and made an inviting gesture to Ye Mingyang.    

    

When Ye Mingyang heard this, he strode towards the interior of the White Spirit Village.    

    

Under the cold moonlight, Ye Mingyang had already walked past several intersections with Lau Xuyan. He couldn't help but look around. This mountain stronghold looked like it was newly built. Beside the surrounding houses were piles of wood as thick as buckets.    

    

After passing another intersection, Lau Xuyan stopped in front of a door.    

    

He raised his hand and gently pushed the door. With a creak, the door was opened.    

    

Then he lit up the oil lamp hanging on the wall with a torch. In a short while, the dark room was lit up by the oil lamp.    

    

"This..." Ye Mingyang looked at the warehouse in front of him and was a little stunned. There were more than 20 bags of grain and more than a dozen bottles of wine in the warehouse. The most eye-catching thing was that there was a big yellow dog tied to the corner of the wall. The dog's eyes were turbid, and its yellow fur had begun to show traces of white. If one considered its age, it was afraid that it had already reached the age of the Human Clan.    

    

"You only have this much stuff in the stockade?" Ye Mingyang looked at the things in the stockade and found it hard to believe. He thought in his heart, Shouldn't the mountain of spirit crystal and the countless rare treasures in the warehouse of the robbers? Why is there only this little stockpile of food, the interview, and a dying dog inside?    

    

"Yes, that's all." Lau Xuyan nodded and explained the reason to Ye Mingyang. At this moment, they were deep in the mountains in the south of Devil Sect Forest, which could be considered as the mountains and rivers. Naturally, it was impossible for any business travelers to pass by.    

    

There were only two villages within a 50-mile radius of White Spirit Village. One of them was called Grass Village, a small village. There were about a dozen families living in it. For White Spirit Village, there were only two villages. The things inside were simply not enough to fill their teeth. There was another village that was the Little Stone Village that they had gone to today. They had no choice but to go there. After all, there were more than twenty mouths that needed to eat.    

    

"Ugh..." When Ye Mingyang heard this, he couldn't help but feel ashamed. This White Spirit Village was indeed too poor. Even the beggars in the Star Sculpting City wouldn't be willing to come here.    

    

After which, he said to Lau Xuyan, "This place is so barren. Why don't you guys find another place? You must build a stronghold in this desolate place."    

    

Lau Xuyan shook his head and said, "There are more than twenty people in White Spirit Village, and all of them are wanted criminals with murder cases or serious crimes. Everyone here is an ordinary person, and I am the only one who is only a warrior of the five sects. " A trace of bitterness climbed into Lau Xuyan's heart. He continued, "As far as I know, those better places... Those places have already been taken over by others, and those people are very powerful. There are even Star Fusion Stage warriors in the White Spirit Village. I'm afraid that my White Spirit Village can't even compare to a finger of someone else. How could they dare to go to other places? They could only stay in this poor place. I've lived an ordinary life. "    

    

Ye Mingyang looked at the desolate Lau Xuyan and couldn't help but feel pity for him. He had done the same thing before because he didn't have the strength, so he could only hide.    

    

He turned to Lau Xuyan and said, "How many things here were taken from that small Stone Village?"    

    

After Lau Xuyan heard Ye Mingyang's words, he didn't answer and walked out of the room. Not long later, the seventh brother was brought in by him.    

    

Seventh Brother had been an accountant in the restaurant for a period of time, so everything in White Spirit Village was under his jurisdiction.    

    

He looked at Ye Mingyang attentively and took out a small book from his waist. He pointed at the corner of the wall and said, "In that small little Stone Village, I robbed over two thousand jin of cooked wheaten food and coarse grain, as well as those three jugs of wine. A yellow cow, a yellow dog, thirty-five chickens, ten swans, two sheep, two hundred and thirty eggs, five chopping knives, three hoes, seven sweeping... "    

    

"Enough!" Before he could finish, Ye Mingyang interrupted him.    

    

Were these people still bandits? They were clearly going to move. Why did they even want to snatch the firewood, knife, and broom?    

    

"Why are you guys robbing everything!? Even that hoe is not spared!" Ye Mingyang was somewhat angry, and a look of disdain appeared on his face.    

    

Old Seven looked at Ye Mingyang's face full of disdain and said, "This place is originally a poor mountain and evil water. The people in this village were all idlers in the past. How would they know how to make these things that are used for daily use? So they take whatever they have. "    

    

Ye Mingyang looked at Lau Xuyan and said, "You should prepare these things. Tomorrow, all of them will go to that small Stone Village."    

    

Lau Xuyan nodded and said, "Sir, you can do whatever you want."    

    

Right at this moment, Old Seven, who was standing at the side, had a somewhat gloomy expression. He said to Lau Xuyan, "Big Brother, all of these have been moved away. What are the brothers eating?"    

    

"Is your life more important, or is this food more important? Idiot." Lau Xuyan could not help but be angry.    

    

"Alright... Old Seven listened to his brother. He would do whatever his brother asked him to do. " At this moment, Seventh Brother was like a child who had done something wrong. He lowered his head and stammered.    

    

Lau Xuyan looked at Seventh Brother who had his head lowered and could not help but sigh. He shook his head and turned to Ye Mingyang and said, "May I ask if you are satisfied now?"    

    

Ye Mingyang thought for a while and said, "En, not bad." "Gugugugu..." A sound came from Ye Mingyang's stomach.    

    

Damn it, why did he forget that he hadn't eaten yet? He immediately said to Lau Xuyan, "I'm hungry. Go and prepare some food for me."    

    

After Lau Xuyan heard that, he nodded and said, "Sir, please wait for a moment. I will go and prepare some food right away." After Lau Xuyan said that, he turned around and prepared to leave the warehouse.    

    

But before he could walk out of the door, he was stopped by Ye Mingyang.    

    

"By the way, don't play any tricks on me. If I find out, I don't mind burning your stockade." Ye Mingyang licked his lips and revealed a strange smile.    

    

Lau Xuyan did not answer. He only nodded and left.
