51. The second floor of the tower (three watches)
With that, with a wave of his hand, the two strong men in black behind him were about to step forward and drag Lan Xue down.
Seeing this, Lan Xue hurriedly retracted her body into the three-headed dog and hugged the neck of one of them with both hands.
"Wait a minute!" Luo Chong shouted coldly, blocking in front of the strong man in black.
Hou Fei laughed dryly, "This is our town's own business, don't dare to bother the little brother, and ask the little brother to get out of the way." ”
"I want to ask, why is Lan Xue a traitor?" Luo Chong said with a straight face.
Seeing Luo Chong's disdain for his words, Hou Fei's face couldn't help but change, and then he sighed: "This little girl, regardless of the safety of the town, insists on going her own way, is a traitor!"
"Because she killed a few bandits, so you are afraid that if you take her in, you will be retaliated by the bandits?" Luo Chong sneered, "I think you adults are frightened by those bandits, and you are not as bold as a child!"
When Hou Fei heard this, his face turned blue for a while, but because of the identity of the other party, he couldn't say anything, so he just shouted to the two strong men in black: "What are you still doing in a daze, take down that little girl first!"
"Yes!" the two strong men in black agreed, and they were about to step forward.
"Roar~!" Seeing the two approaching the three-headed dog, he roared violently, and the three huge heads grinned with their teeth, revealing their fierce looks. The two strong men in black were so frightened that they retreated again and again, and they no longer dared to step forward.
Seeing this, Hou Fei's face was extremely ugly for a while. He felt his majesty as mayor of the town and was provoked.
"Mayor, you don't have to be angry, when we destroy those bandits, all problems will be solved. Luo Chong gave the other party a step down.
However, Luo Chong already vaguely felt that the mayor of the town did not have much hope for them to exterminate the bandits. This can only mean one thing - those bandits are very strong! strong enough to make them lose faith in the Iron Eagle Guild!
"Hehe, that's a good point!" Hou Fei tried to suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart, and said in a weird manner: "Since you have such ambitions, I will no longer grow the ambition of others and destroy my own prestige, then I will introduce you to this gang of bandits!"
When Luo Chong and the others heard this, they couldn't help but listen carefully, after all, they were going to fight each other.
Hou Fei pondered for a moment and said: "Originally, the strength of this gang of bandits was not strong, and they only occasionally harassed our town at the beginning, and they didn't dare to be too arrogant, so we didn't care too much, but just organized a patrol team to patrol around the town every day. Until a few months ago...... This gang of bandits has a new leader!"
Speaking of this, a trace of fear flashed in Hou Fei's eyes.
"On that day, this new leader led nearly 100 people and directly broke into Huangshi Town, without the slightest fear! One of our patrol squads, there were more than 30 people, all of them were good, but in front of this new leader, he tore them to pieces with his bare hands in just a few faces!"
When Luo Chong heard this, he couldn't help but look cold, "This new leader, the means are really ruthless!"
However, it is precisely with this ruthless method that everyone can be shocked in the shortest possible time!
Hou Fei sighed for a moment and continued: "Due to the terrifying strength of the other party, the people in the town no longer dare to make a move, they just hope that after they grab some things, they will leave quickly. Unexpectedly, that gang of bandits actually took advantage of the martial arts training ground, used it as their base, and at the same time sent people to patrol the town, completely controlling the town! And we, every once in a while, we have to provide them with food and water, and we have to pay 'protection money', otherwise we will be killed!"
"There is no way, we have to pay a lot of money, and issue a bounty mission, hoping that someone can kill this gang of bastards, counting, there have been a total of five groups of people so far, but they are all a bunch of waste! Not only did we not kill the bandits, but they died at the hands of the other party! Now, we don't expect anyone to save us, as long as we can barely survive, it is enough. ”
"However, you hid food in this tower and drove out those ordinary people, didn't you let them die?" Luo Chong said coldly.
Hou Fei's face changed, he glanced at Lan Xue gloomily, and knew in his heart that these were all said from the mouth of this little girl.
"Alas~!" Hou Fei pretended to sigh helplessly, "I can't help it, now no one dares to go out to work anymore, the food is getting less and less, and I can't feed so many people at all!
"Hmph!" Luo Chong snorted coldly, too lazy to speak again, he didn't believe a word about Hou Fei's explanation.
"Hehe, okay, you must be tired from coming from afar, right? I think everyone should rest for a while, and wait for tomorrow morning, and then leave. Hou Fei laughed dryly and said.
"Leave?" Demon Seven was stunned for a moment, didn't they want to exterminate the bandits?
"This ......" Hou Fei glanced at Demon Qi and the others in embarrassment, and said with a sneer: "Yes, I really don't want to see someone die tragically at the hands of that gang of bandits!"
"I don't think you can't bear to let us die, but you're afraid of being implicated by us and retaliated by the bandits, right?" Luo Chong didn't believe that in this small town where the law of the jungle eats the strong, Hou Fei still retains the slightest mercy.
And the biggest possibility is that Hou Fei is worried that after Luo Chong and others are discovered by the bandits, the bandits will think that they are the helpers Hou Fei has found, and they will definitely not spare Hou Fei at that time.
"This ...... Hehe, the little brother is really joking. Hou Fei couldn't help but blush, and then glanced at a tall and thin man behind him: "You go and arrange food and lodging for a few distinguished guests, don't be lazy! Oh, there are also extremely noble guests' mounts, you have to take good care of them!"
"Yes!" said the tall and thin man immediately.
Going up the spiral staircase, several people ascended to the second floor of the tower.
"It's just ...... Another world!"
Luo rushed to the second floor of the tower, first taken aback, and then couldn't help but feel a wave of anger in his heart!
If the first floor is a refugee camp, then the second floor is a luxury mansion!
The soft animal skin carpet stretches from the entrance to the second floor into the depths, and the corridors are lined with exquisite ancient paintings, every place is spotlessly cleaned, and there is a faint fragrance in the air, apparently coming from the incense burner.
"This Hou Fei, what a scum! Everyone can't even eat, but he enjoys it so much here!" Luo Chong thought to himself, and followed the tall and thin man to a room.
"Come in, several, I'll arrange a feast later, and entertain you!" said the tall and thin man who opened the door.
"Forget it, you go and get some food for Lan Xue, we're not hungry yet. Demon Seven frowned.
"Okay, no problem. The tall and thin man glanced at Demon Seven in surprise, turned around and was about to leave, when suddenly he seemed to remember something, and said with a smile: "If you have any needs, you can mention it, our town chief is very hospitable." ”
......
A moment later, a plump maid with a snow-white patch on her chest walked in with two plates of pastries.
"Little sister, come and eat!" the maid looked at Lan Xue with a smile and placed the two plates of pastries on the table one by one, "This is cedar cake, this is osmanthus cake." ”
Seeing the food, Lan Xue's eyes became straight.
For months, she had hardly eaten a full meal, and sometimes she was so hungry that she had eaten even rats! Now she almost drooled at the sight of such a fragrant delicacy, and she didn't care about the presence of others, so she grabbed one in one hand and stuffed it into her mouth desperately......
"Be careful, don't choke!" the maid smiled as she handed over a cup of tea.
"Hmm!" Lan Xue's mouth was so full that she couldn't speak.
