The others couldn’t hear Luo Cheng and Zhang Yi’s conversation, but Li Xiaoran and Shu Ruyue could.

Li Xiaoran could hear the other party’s thoughts because he was agitated, but Shu Ruyue could hear their conversation because she had good hearing.

Li Xiaoran and Shu Ruyue frowned at the same time.

Li Xiaoran really didn’t expect to encounter such a thing.

Was it because poverty made people do crazy things?

Shatai Village was simply too lawless. To women, it was like hell.

This matter had to be resolved.

Since they had encountered it, there was no reason to ignore it.

Luo Cheng was also thinking about what to do.

Li Xiaoran and Shu Ruyue naturally couldn’t go anymore. Luo Cheng didn’t want Li Xiaoran to be frightened by such a dangerous place.

“Let’s go down the mountain now!” Luo Cheng finally decided to prioritize Li Xiaoran and Shu Ruyue’s safety. They would leave this place first and think about a solution later.

Unfortunately, just as they were about to leave, dozens of men suddenly rushed out from all directions. All of them were holding scimitars and sickles as they glared at Luo Cheng and the others.

Luo Cheng and the others were outnumbered!

Including Li Xiaoran and Shu Ruyue, there were a total of eight people.

Including the four people on Zhang Yi’s side, there were only twelve people.

A total of 38 people rushed out.

When Zhang Yi saw this scene, he immediately sighed.

“It’s too late. It’s too late to leave! We can only fight!”

Zhang Yi and the people he brought knew that they could only risk their lives today.

As long as it involved snatching women, the people of Shatai Village would definitely kill all the men.

Because that was the only way to keep their secret.

They could only blame their bad luck.

One of the fierce-looking men walked out and said proudly, “You want to leave? No way! My buddies and I have been waiting for you here for a long time! Do you think we’ll let you leave now?”

With that, the man stared at Li Xiaoran and Shu Ruyue sinisterly.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen such beautiful women. Since you guys came knocking on my door today, don’t even think about leaving!”

When Shu Ruyue heard this, she wanted to draw her sword in anger and gouge out the other party’s disgusting eyes.

Luo Cheng didn’t panic at all, but he looked at the group of people in front of him coldly.

“I really didn’t expect someone to dare to try to snatch my people. It seems that you guys are too big for your britches!”

While his young master was talking, Zi Zheng took out a porcelain bottle from his pocket and poured out some pills.

While the other party’s attention wasn’t on him, Zi Cheng distributed these pills to the surrounding people.

Yu Peng was the first to receive the pill. Zi Zheng lowered his voice and said,

“Take an antidote pill and pass it to your people!”

When Yu Peng heard this, he immediately took the pill and swallowed one himself. Then, he gave the remaining pill to Jiao Hang. “Take one antidote pill and pass the rest to your own people!” Jiao Hang immediately understood.

Like Yu Peng, Jiao Hang took one himself and spread the rest.

Soon, Luo Cheng’s people had all taken it, leaving only the four people from horse team, Li Xiaoran, and Shu Ruyue.

Shu Ruyue thought of something and took out an antidote pill. While Li Xiaoran was pulling her, she also handed Li Xiaoran an antidote pill.

Li Xiaoran also had an antidote pill on her, but it wasn’t convenient for her to take it now, so she quickly swallowed the antidote pill that Shu Ruyue handed her.

“You pretty boy, you actually dare to challenge us?! Look at your petite body. It’s enough for us to hack you a few times! If you know what’s good for you and offer these two people to us obediently, I can leave your corpses intact!” The fierce-looking man had no idea that he was in danger and was still very arrogant.

Luo Cheng said coldly, “Good, very good! It seems that you’ve done this a lot of times! It’s your turn to be taught a lesson today!”

Another man with a wretched expression walked forward and shouted, “Hahahaha, stop talking nonsense! Hurry up and bring the woman over! We can’t wait anymore!”

This time, Luo Cheng was really angry.

This group of people had to be dealt with.

Thinking of this, Luo Cheng took out a porcelain bottle and opened it.

A gas quietly dissipated.

At this moment, a gust of wind blew over. Then, the gas evaporated even faster.

In a few minutes, the four men from the horse team fell to the ground.

Zi Zheng and the others were already prepared. When they saw that these people had fainted, they quickly grabbed them.

Seeing this, the people of Shatai Village pointed at them and mocked them.

“Hahahaha, brothers, did you see that? These cowards actually fainted! They’re really cowards!” The man with the fierce appearance mocked.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly felt a little dizzy and collapsed.

After he fell, many more people fell one after another.

Soon, the people who had ill intentions just now fell to the ground and could no longer move.

Luo Cheng said, “Today is the day you get your retribution!” Then, Luo Cheng turned to look at Li Xiaoran.

“Xiaoran, were you frightened?”

Li Xiaoran shook her head and said, “I’m fine. I’m just disgusted! Husband, what should we do next? These people have to be severely punished! Due to the serious nature of the matter, we have to have a public trial and make an example out of them!”

Luo Cheng knew what Li Xiaoran meant, so he nodded solemnly and said, “Xiaoran, don’t worry! This is my territory. These commoners are under my jurisdiction. After such a thing happened and I encountered it, I will definitely interfere to the end!”

With Luo Cheng’s assurance, Li Xiaoran was relieved.m

Li Xiaoran asked, “Then what should we do next?”

Luo Cheng narrowed his eyes and said, “From what that person said just now, the people from Shatai Village have been targeting us for a long time! Even if I send you back now, the other party might not let the matter rest! Now, following me is the safest option for you!”
