Chapter 265: Encountering Mountain Bandits

Chickweed's willow-like brows furrowed slightly, and the cherry mouth opened slightly, revealing a hint of consternation and unease.

Her eyes widened, her eyes flashed with a misty light, and her heart was a little flustered.

She bit her lower lip tightly, trying to hide the trembling and not let the panic in her heart show.

Chickweed knew that after leaving the General's Mansion, she was now in danger, and she warned herself to stay calm and not let the man in black see her weakness.

However, the words of the man in black pierced her heart like a thorn.

The air around him seemed to freeze, and only the grim voice of the man in black echoed in his ears.

Chickweed felt a chill hit her, as if she was in the middle of ice and snow, and her heart began to beat faster, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.

However, at this critical moment, Chickweed takes a deep breath and tries to calm itself.

She knew that only by staying calm could she find a solution to the problem, she raised her head, looked at the man in black with firm eyes, and said, "You said that this pill is poisonous, is there any evidence?"

The man in black smiled coldly and did not answer immediately.

He walked over to Chickweed, gently lifted her arm, lifted her sleeve, lifted her arm, and motioned Chickweed to look down.

Chickweed looked down, and a wave of grief welled up in her heart, she didn't expect that she would be poisoned.

Chickweed silently lowered her eyes, and a surge of determination swelled in her heart.

She knew that now was not the time to panic, and she had to find the antidote as soon as possible, and she couldn't let this poison affect her.

She raised her head, her eyes flashing with determination, and looked at the man in black, "Are you really taking medicine on the first day of January?"

The man in black took out a small white bottle from his bosom, "I think you'll need this soon."

After saying that, he turned around directly and prepared to leave.

However, the moment he turned around, a pain came from Chickweed in her abdomen, which made her frown slightly, and she realized that the poison had already begun to attack.

Chickweed gritted her teeth, trying to suppress the pain.

She knew that now was not the time to hesitate, and she was about to reach out to get the small white bottle in the hand of the man in black.

Chickweed took the antidote, felt that his body was full of energy again, and then left directly and embarked on the road to find Luo Jinyu.

Along the way, Chickweed thought as she walked, and she could only move forward.

After walking for a while, Chickweed felt a little tired, she stopped to rest for a while, drank some water, and ate some dry food.

After walking a little further, Chickweed felt a little thirsty.

She noticed a fruit grove in front of her, so she went over and picked some fruit to eat. In the orchard, she spotted a small stream and stopped to drink.

Chickweed felt uneasy, the sun was creeping down, and the twilight was converging, filling the whole forest with a mysterious atmosphere.

She knew she might have lost her way, and now, she could only hope to find her way out before night fell completely.

At that moment, she heard a faint rustle.

Chickweed's heart tightened instantly, and her steps became heavy, as if dragged by an invisible weight.

She turned cautiously and saw a group of bandit-like men slowly approaching in her direction.

Their faces were hidden by the shadows of the dusk, and only their eyes gleamed dangerously.

Dressed in rough leather clothes, armed with various weapons, they all smelled of wine and ferocity, and the mountain bandits approached step by step, their eyes focused on Chickweed, as if she were a prey, and they were prey.

Fear was like a cold wind, instantly penetrating Chickweed's body and mind.

Her hands were shaking, and her steps were erratic, but she knew she couldn't panic.

She took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm while looking for a route to escape.

The woods were surrounded by a dense patch of grass, and she thought quickly that if she managed to sneak into the grass, she might be able to avoid it for a while

The pursuit of the mountain bandits.

Chickweed's heart was beating like a drum, and she bit her lower lip tightly, burying her fear and panic deeply.

The last chance came, and she duly burrowed into the grass, careful not to make any noise.

The bandits' attention seemed to be focused on her, and the noise of them trampling the grass.

As the twilight deepened, the bandits suddenly spotted a chickweed hiding in the grass, and her figure loomed in the grass.

The mountain bandit led by him was tall and mighty, with a fierce face.

He walked towards Chickweed, his eyes as sharp as a falcon, his gaze wandering over Chickweed's body, full of ill-intentioned Yin, his laughter echoing through the silent mountain road, with a kind of coldness and cruelty.

"Haha, little lady, how long have you been hiding, and we haven't found it after all." He scoffed, tongue licking between chapped lips with a hunger and greed.

Seeing this, the other bandits grinned, their eyes flashing with desire and excitement, as if they had seen the atrocities that were about to be staged.

Their laughter echoed through the trees, filling this peaceful place with evil and terror.

Chickweed forcibly calmed down, stood up, and looked at the group of mountain bandits with a blank face.

Her body stiffened, but her voice remained calm, "What do you want?"

The group of mountain bandits looked at the chickweed, their faces full of flesh and fierce expressions.

Chickweed felt a pang of fear, but she tried to keep her composure, knowing that the slightest fear would fall prey to the bandits.

Then she glared angrily, and her voice was firm and powerful: "Don't come nonsense!"

The mountain bandit stood there, his eyes glinting with a sly glint in the dim night.

He looked at the woman in front of him, her eyes were firm, and her appearance did not look like a weak woman at all.

The corners of the bandit's mouth hooked up into a mocking smile, and he said, "Little lady, you are really majestic.

However, did you, a weak woman, come to the wrong place in this woods? How about it, do you want me to take you out?"

Chickweed glared at the bandits, her eyes full of vigilance and anger.

She knew that this mountain bandit was not a good stubble.

Chickweed took a deep breath to calm herself down, she straightened up, glared at the bandits, and said, "You bandits, leave quickly!"

The mountain bandit was stunned when he heard this, he didn't expect the woman in front of him to be so big, he couldn't help laughing, and said, "Little lady, you must be too arrogant."

The bandit leader turned his head and gestured to the other bandits, who immediately understood what he meant, and approached Chickweed one after another, intending to forcibly take her away.

Chickweed saw this, her heart tightened, she knew that her situation was very dangerous.

She tried to break free, but the bandits were so tightly tied that his struggles were useless.

Seeing Chickweed's struggle, the bandit leader smiled coldly, "I advise you not to move, in this case, the brothers will be gentle."

Chickweed's chest was beating like a drum inside, and the tension was like an undercurrent surging through her body.

The eyes of the mountain bandit led by him were cold, and his face was like a cliff carved by time, cold and ruthless.

So, her eyes widened, her chest straightened, and she continued to shout at the mountain bandit she was leading, although her heart was full of fear, her eyes remained steadfast, because she knew that only in this way could she overcome the fear in her heart.

Chickweed spit directly in his face at the mountain bandit led by him.

When the bandits in the back saw this, they wanted to come forward and beat her.

However, what they didn't expect was that the mountain bandits led by them directly stopped them.

"Yes, it's spicy enough, I like it."

The mountain bandit in the lead wiped the saliva from his face vigorously, then stood up and waved to the person behind him, "Give it to me."

Take people back and respect them, and you'll be your sister-in-law from now on."

Hearing this, Chickweed couldn't help but feel a little nervous and wanted to retreat, but found that there were all their people behind her.

"Well, if you dare to do anything to me, be careful...... Beware of our generals breaking you to pieces."

Chickweed shouted at the last moment.

Sure enough, everyone's movements stopped.

The mountain bandits led by the leader immediately turned to look at her and touched the two moustaches, "General, haha, brothers, did you hear that? She said the general.

Come, little lady, tell me which general can tear me to pieces?"

Chickweed looked at the people around her, then raised her head and said, "Do you know General Hades, Luo Jinyu?"

As soon as they heard such a name, those mountain bandits couldn't help but talk to each other.

Then the leading bandit walked up to her again and reached out and pinched her jaw.

"Stinky girl, don't give you a shame, if you follow me back now, then there will be a lady who will be in charge of the village, and my brothers will also respect you.

But if you're still playing tricks on me here, then let me take a closer look at what this general's woman looks like."

After saying that, the mountain bandits led by him went up and put her on their shoulders, and walked towards their stockade.

Chickweed kept herself calm and didn't make any more noise, she knew it was impossible to escape.

She looked at the scenery along the road, but she felt as if everything was the same, and she couldn't help but feel a little confused.

Just as they had left, a man in black was standing on top of a tree.

He watched the chickweed being taken away, and the corners of his mouth curled, but he didn't help.

After a while, he saw another woman walking below, and he jumped down.

"Why are you here?"

"I just want to see, is that my sister?"

The man in black nodded at the woman beside him, "Yes, what, you can't bear it?"

"I don't really remember."

With that, she and the man in black turned around and left in the opposite direction.
