C66 Go Home!
The one-eyed man’s voice became louder, “Then what should we do? Just wait here?”
Dog Two waved his hand in fear and said in a low voice, “Big Boss, lower your voice, or else you’ll be punished for it.”
The one-eyed man kicked him, “You useless thing, you’ve been scared to death.”
Dog Two felt wronged, “You don’t know how powerful this little ancestor is. He used me as an arrow target the day before yesterday. He used me to test the poison that can make one laugh half a step…”
The door creaked open and a young man in black stood at the door. He was full of killing intent and the bandits were scared to the point that they hid their heads.
San Qi came in, “You’re so energetic in the middle of the night. Our master wants to eat soybean milk, go and grind it.”
San Qi pointed at the one-eyed man, “Go and grind two buckets!”
Two buckets, is this for cows? The one-eyed man was so scared that he almost fell down. “It’s not suitable for a big boss like me to grind soybean milk. Besides, can two buckets drink so much?”
San Qi frowned, “Cut the crap, you go and grind it. Also, go and grind some rice powder. Our master will make it in the morning.” San Qi casually pointed at the other bandits.
The bandits grinded the soybean milk, grinded the rice, and grinded till the sun rose. When the sun rose, they were sent to chop firewood and catch fish to make food. They had to play weird games with Lan Qingqi in the day. The bandits were completely defeated.
When they heard that the Seventh Prince had returned, everyone saw hope. However, they couldn’t see the Seventh Prince coming to pick her up.
The one-eyed man had to brave the mountain and tell the guards that he had something to see the Seventh Prince about.
The guards stared at him and let him go alone.
The one-eyed man knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing. “Your Highness, you are back. Please do me a favor and take this little ancestor back. She has been here for half a month and the Evil Dragon Mountain has been completely eaten by her. My brothers are all scared and can’t even sleep well.”
Gu Jun’an sat and looked at him indifferently. “But I don’t have two thousand taels of ransom. It’s better to let her stay in the Evil Dragon Mountain. When I have enough money, I will come and take her back.”
He even asked Sanba, “How much money do you have?”
“One tael of silver,” Sanba answered.
One tael of silver and two thousand taels of silver were worlds apart. The one-eyed man said with a bitter face, “Don’t have the ransom. We are blind and stupid to pick up the little ancestor and bring her back to the mountain.”
As long as he could take this ancestor away, he didn’t care if he was bankrupt!
A cold smile appeared on Gu Jun’an’s face. “Can she be summoned and taken away as she pleases?” His words were threatening.
The one-eyed man shook his head. “No, no, we don’t dare. It’s just that the little ancestor has almost spent all the money in the mountain. We are really afraid of starving her.”
Gu Jun’an looked up at Sanba. “Since the Evil Dragon Mountain is so poor… Sanba, you can find some miscellaneous jobs for them and earn some money for the Evil Dragon Mountain. We can’t starve the children!”
When the one-eyed man heard this, he felt as if the sky was dark…
All the bandits of the Evil Dragon Mountain had been sent to be laborers. They were working on a mountain road outside the city. There was a temple on the mountain, and there were many people coming and going. However, because the mountain road was difficult to walk on and had been neglected for a long time, a few people had died.
Now that they were short of manpower, the ones sent here were all people who had been imprisoned for crimes.
When Lan Qingqian heard Gu Jun’an’s return, she immediately carried her small baggage down the mountain after she had gotten used to living in the mountains.
“Old son-in-law, I’m back!”
Gu Jun’an saw that the little thing was chubby and white after being raised. He nodded slightly in satisfaction.
“It seems like you are enjoying your life in the Evil Dragon Mountain?”
“Of course not. I missed you so much. I ran here to see you when I heard that you were back.” Lan Qingqian grinned.
“Thinking about me? Thinking about how I didn’t see you come back two days ago?” Gu Jun’an did not believe this little thing’s words. This little thing was the best at being coquettish and lying.
