Chapter 221： Wandered into paradise on earth?

Chapter 221 Entering the paradise on earth by mistake?

The originally desolate valley is now covered with luxuriant grass and wild flowers. In the middle, a patch of gravel has been cleared, and a dozen women are dancing.

With raised hands and feet, the clothes are fluttering, like a fairy falling into the mortal world, making people reluctant to take their eyes away.

Some soldiers rubbed their eyes hard and even thought they were too tired from the journey and had hallucinations.

Fortunately, Li Laosi and Ye Shan reacted first. One took two steps forward to protect Jiayi and Liu Yang, while the other quickly looked at the entire valley, the caves, and the observation shacks on both sides of the mountains.

At this moment, the women also discovered that an outsider had broken in. They screamed and dispersed, throwing flutes and harps all over the floor.

“Someone is coming! Release the vine ladder quickly!”

“Class leader, class leader, someone is here!”

“Help!”

The valley, which just a moment ago was like a fairyland on earth, suddenly became a commotion and lost all its beauty.

Everyone touched their noses and scratched the backs of their heads in embarrassment, feeling very aggrieved. They obviously did nothing.

There were soldiers who were about to put down their bows, arrows and swords, but they were stopped by Ye Shan.

“Alert! Don’t worry just because you think it’s a woman, this is not a military camp!”

Li Laosi also said, "We have lived here for the whole winter. It is not easy to live here. Don't underestimate these women. Some of them must be good at martial arts."

Sure enough, after the women climbed into various caves in a panic, a short while later, a woman who pretended to be brave jumped down from the largest cave and ran straight towards everyone.

The two parties were five or six feet away. The woman stopped and looked at the people carefully. She saw that most of Li Laosi and Li Laosi were dressed as soldiers. She looked a little bad, and she obviously thought that everyone was a remnant.

She clenched the sword in her hand and shouted loudly, "This place has been occupied by us. All the strong men should find another place to stay."

Li Laosi took two steps forward and said, "We are not refugees and remnants, nor did we come here to settle down. Last winter, we lived here for several months and left some book boxes behind. Because they were inconvenient to carry, we sealed them in the one on the far left. It’s in a small cave. We’re going to take it away this time and won’t disturb your life here.”

The woman's eyes flashed, and her hand holding the sword relaxed.

They arrived here three months ago and were overjoyed to find a cave, crude tables and chairs, and even a straw hut stove.

Of course, they also discovered the book box in the cave.

Originally, they thought that if someone came to pick up books, they could follow them out of the mountains.

But at this moment, the people who came to pick up the books were not the gentle scholars they imagined, but actually a group of soldiers...

Li Laosi also saw the entrance to the small cave being opened, frowned slightly, and said, "You don't have to be afraid, we don't mean any harm. We just need to get back the books, and you can use the rest as you like."

"If you are worried, we can camp on the edge of the forest. As long as you send over all the 486 volumes of the book, we will not have any conflict."

The woman looked at them carefully for a long time, did not agree or refuse, and turned away.

Seeing this, Ye Shan said, "Let's light a fire and have a rest. Dealing with women is troublesome, and it might take a long time."

Li Laosi nodded and told everyone, "Half of the people made a fire and roasted the rabbits and pheasants caught on the road to pad their bellies. The other half were on guard and could not relax."

Everyone immediately got busy, dividing the work and cooperating without any confusion. In the largest cave in the distance, a woman stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the busy people beside the forest.

She wore an ink blue cardigan with an embroidered gauze pleated skirt. Her black hair was tied into a simple double spiral bun, with a white jade hairpin inserted sideways, which made her eyebrows picturesque. She occasionally raised her eyebrows. In her hands, she wore a silk-filled tourmaline bracelet on her white wrist, which had a unique charm.

If the surrounding caves were not too rough, some people would believe that she was a pampered lady in the backyard of a wealthy family.

The sword-wielding woman who had just spoken to Li Laosi and others said in a low voice, "Leader, these people don't look like ordinary gangsters, and they also bring two and a half young men with them. The two leaders, one looks like a steward , although he looks tough, he looks a bit like a peasant.

"The number of books they reported is also correct. They must really be here to pick up the books. Do you think we should give them the books? Should we... go out with them?"

The beautiful woman shook her head slightly and ordered, "Look again, we are all women. If we trust the wrong person, there will be no room for us to turn around. You go and tell them that we have read the books on weekdays and we need to sort them out." Let’s ask them to rest by the forest for two days. In addition, it’s best to give them something to find out their background.”

"Okay, I'll go find Xiaotong and Hui'er. They are young and no one will be prepared." The woman holding the sword responded.

Beside the forest, a bonfire was already burning. There were not many prey that the people caught on the road, but they could eat enough if they were roasted with fine salt and the white flour biscuits brought from home.

As a result, as soon as the rabbits were roasted, two little girls came over from the cave. They were about fifteen or sixteen years old. They were small in stature, dressed in ordinary clothes, and looked timid, just like little rabbits.

The two of them carried a small iron pot and a small cloth bag, stood a few steps away, and talked to everyone.

"Fellow warriors, our class leader said that the book box has been opened by everyone. It will take a day or two to put it together. Please wait. There are iron pots and japonica rice here. You warriors have come a long way to work hard. If you don't mind, we will help you. Let’s make some rice porridge to warm up your stomach?”

No one can be wary when faced with such a little girl.

Ye Shan and Li Laosi cupped their hands and responded, "Okay, please tell your class leader that no book should be missing. In addition, we will keep the iron pot as a loan, but you can take the japonica rice back."

Perhaps they spoke too loudly, and the two little girls shrank their necks in fright. Their big eyes were immediately filled with tears, as if they might fall at any time.

Ye Shan and Li Laosi were both embarrassed and subconsciously took a few steps back.

The two little girls were holding on to their clothes, tears falling more and more urgently.

“Our class leader has ordered that if you take the japonica rice back, you will be scolded...”

Some soldiers felt soft-hearted and said, "Fourth Master, they are just two little girls. Can you treat them to a rabbit leg?"

“Yes, Fourth Master, let’s make some porridge to drink. We have been eating solid food along the way, and I really can’t eat anymore.”

Li Laosi frowned. He wanted to take everyone's thoughts into consideration, so he nodded.

Immediately someone led the two little girls to sit on the big stone and stuffed them with roasted rabbit legs.

The little girls were a little cautious at first, but once the rabbit meat was in their mouths, they forgot everything.

“Woo, it’s so delicious. We haven’t eaten meat for a year. We’ve been hungry all day, woo.”

“Me too, I thought I was going to starve to death in this forest.”

The soldiers became even more soft-hearted after hearing this. They broke dry biscuits for them and advised them, "Eat slowly. Why are you so young in this deep mountain and old forest?"
