my wife is wonderful

Chapter 256 Convergence

After Boss Sha and Bandit 2 left, Geng Xingshuang and Jinbao looked at each other. Jinbao expressed understanding. She coughed lightly and pretended to suddenly realize: "Oh, I know!"

She nodded vigorously as she spoke. The traces of her performance were obvious, but now only Bandit Three and Bandit Four were there. Bandit Three was very vigilant, but he was not a good observer, and Bandit Four was even more curious and vigilant. The inadequate person immediately asked after hearing this: "What do you know?"

"This is not simple. I wonder why you bought so many things in Tao County. It turned out that you wanted to bring them to Gushu Town to sell them and earn some money. This trip you made was really cost-effective. I don’t know how much reward I will get after the success of the master behind me. Now I have started the business of buying at low prices and selling at high prices, and I have made a lot of money. Tsk, Tsk, Uncle Sha is really a good mind. , It turns out that you were all pretending to be in such embarrassment before, you just wanted us girls to willingly pay for the food and lodging expenses for the whole trip. It’s really...yes..."

Jin Bao paused for a long time, but couldn't think of a suitable word to describe it. Geng Xingshuang glanced at Bandit Four, whose face had turned red and wanted to interrupt several times, and then slowly continued, "You are a disciple who is just trying to gain fame!"

"What are you talking about? Who is trying to gain fame? We are just poor and have no money. My eldest brother didn't go to sell goods just now, but went to find a guide! Fortunately, you are still a lady, is it like this... What kind of talk is that? What word!”

The third bandit frowned when he heard what Jin Bao and Geng Xingshuang said. He was about to speak, but he didn't expect the fourth bandit to speak loudly.

"You said we were lying?" Geng Xingshuang didn't wait for the third bandit to speak, and immediately took advantage of the opportunity to ask, shaking his head as he asked, "I don't believe it. The West is your own territory. I haven't heard anything about it. I still need a guide in my hometown.”

"If we walk normally, we don't need a guide. Not to mention the eldest, second and third brothers, apart from the official roads, I can walk through three or four small roads alone. But this time I have to cross the desert, and the circle is getting wider and wider. Okay, it’s best to get robbed on the way back to Xiaocheng. It would be best if you can’t go to Xiaocheng. Although we often went to the desert to rob caravans in the past, we always walked close to Xiaocheng. I have never walked across the city or this side of Gushu Town, and that was only a few years ago. If we want to walk this way now, we must not find a guide. We don’t want to die in the vast desert."

The fourth gangster couldn't stand the excitement, and when his head got hot, he said everything he could say but couldn't.

The third bandit opened his mouth several times, trying to add a sentence to the fourth bandit's excited and airtight words, but he never succeeded. In the end, he simply broke the jar, spread his hands, and leaned back, not bothering to Take care.

Anyway, whether you say it or not, it doesn't seem to have a big impact.

They didn't say it, maybe the rich lady of the uncle's house and her maid could relax for a few days, but if they said it, hehe, I guess they wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.

Although Geng Xingshuang had already guessed that things were beginning to turn in the direction she least expected to develop, she still showed an unbelievable look of shock after hearing what the Fourth Bandit said.

"Fourth Master Sha, what do you mean by this? You can't scare us just because what we just said didn't sound right!"

Jin Bao looked confused and stared at the fourth bandit and asked.

The fourth gangster felt a little regretful. His eldest brother seemed to have told him to speak less and not to say anything that would only make his brain bald. He seemed to have lost his mind again.

The fourth bandit couldn't help but look towards the third bandit, and saw the third bandit leaning against the wall, with his legs crossed and his eyes half-closed, as if he was about to meet Duke Zhou.

"Third brother, are you asleep?" Bandit Four couldn't help shouting.

The third bandit lazily opened his eyes and glanced at him sideways, "How dare I fall asleep while I'm guarding with you?"

"How did you..." Don't stop me from saying things I shouldn't say.

"You can say whatever you want. Anyway, we are already here. Brother and the others will be back soon. We will leave early tomorrow morning..."

The third bandit said and glanced at Geng Xingshuang again, "Although we were bandits before, we have not been bandits for several years. Even when we were bandits, we never killed anyone. Now if we don't, we will die... Let people die and understand, right?"

"You may not die, right?" Bandit Four muttered.

The third bandit ignored him, but Geng Xingshuang and Jin Bao stared at him with four eyes. Their gazes made the fourth bandit, who thought he had changed his ways and become a good citizen, felt guilty because he was forced to return to his old career due to power. .

"Well...what Third Brother said may...may not be true. Although this trip is dangerous, but...but there is a high chance of surviving..."

The fourth bandit became more and more guilty as he spoke, his voice became softer and softer, his head hung lower and lower, and he did not even dare to look at Geng Xingshuang and the two of them.

"Danger, etc., from the day I was kidnapped by you, I actually don't care much anymore. You used to be robbers, and then you lived in seclusion. You probably didn't know that the daughter or daughter-in-law of a wealthy family had such an experience. Even if you were lucky enough to escape or be rescued, that day...don't mention it!

I'm just a little curious. From what you said before, it seemed like we could just be sent to the Xie Mansion in the West. Now why... we have to go to the desert, and are we connected to Yao Mu? "

Did he mention Yao Mu? The Fourth Bandit is a little suspicious, maybe he said it?

Geng Xingshuang's words made the fourth bandit feel even more guilty, and also made the third bandit who had always stayed out of the matter feel a little sympathetic.

So after they heard Geng Xingshuang's doubts, the fourth bandit glanced at the third bandit: Can you tell me? The third gangster turned away: Just say what you want, it won't affect anything anyway.

"We don't know the specific reason, and my eldest brother probably doesn't know either. When we left Prince Ping's Mansion, Mr. Ye from Prince Ping's Mansion told us to send you directly to Xie Mansion in the West. He just waited until we were halfway there. , we received a message from Governor Xie, asking us to follow the team in front, and we would go in whichever direction they went. At first, we didn’t know where they wanted to go, and thought they were going the same way as us. Going to the West, my eldest brother still felt something was wrong, so he went to inquire about it, and then he knew that we should take this route."

"Who can understand what you said clearly?" Jin Bao said unhappy.

"Isn't this clear enough? I've told you everything I know. If you don't believe me, just ask my third brother." The fourth bandit was not happy either.

"Which team are you talking about?" Geng Xingshuang asked.

"It's Black Scorpion Village and the others. They are the guards of Prince Ping's Mansion and people from the Xie family. They kidnapped a rich lady. I heard that the lady is much more valuable than you. They have been walking in front of us. We followed all the way to Tao County, and received the news that we had to leave the city from the north gate of the county seat, walk northwest, and cross the desert to Xiaocheng. At that time, my eldest brother felt something was wrong, and then he discovered...discovered..."

"What did you find?" Geng Xingshuang asked immediately without giving Bandit Four time to hesitate.

"I found that the palace guards seemed to be missing. I don't know if they returned to Ningdu, or... or..."

"He was still silenced." Bandit Three continued.

Geng Xingshuang glanced at the third bandit and asked, "Do you suspect that Governor Xie and Prince Ping have fallen out?"

When Geng Xingshuang used the word "falling out" to describe the relationship between Prince Ping and Governor Xie, Gang San felt it was a bit weird, making it feel like an understatement like a child fighting.

However, he did not dwell on this and only said: "We are just following orders. As for how their relationship has become and what they want to do, we don't know and can't control it. After we send you to Xie's Mansion, we will When I go back and tell you this, I also want you to die...or live to understand."

"There is one last question." Geng Xingshuang raised a finger, and without waiting for the third bandit to refuse, she immediately asked: "Why are you leaving before dawn today?"

The third gangster wanted to say that we were planning to leave so early, but when he met Geng Xingshuang's clear eyes, his inner thoughts seemed to be invisible in those eyes, so he had to say: "Originally, we left in the morning. , but I heard that a young lady in the front team was clamoring to stay, and they were afraid that the news would be leaked, so they set off in a hurry."

"Who is that little lady? Is she the rich lady who is much more valuable than me?"

Geng Xingshuang's intuition was different. She had already learned from Zhan Pei that there were three women in Black Scorpion Village. One of them she guessed was Zhu Yan, but the other two were unknown.

"Probably not, don't ask, we won't know if you ask again." The fourth bandit was a little impatient.

The next day, it was just dawn again, and we set off.

"Girl, there's someone in front of me, probably Miss Zhu and the others." As soon as they entered the desert, Jin Bao whispered excitedly into Geng Xingshuang's ear.

As soon as Jin Bao finished speaking, Geng Xingshuang also noticed lights flickering not far ahead.

"Is this going to be a rendezvous?" Geng Xingshuang thought this way, so she asked.

"Yes, hurry up and get on the camel!" It was the second bandit who answered her. His tone was a little impatient, and there seemed to be a look of dissatisfaction on his face.

Looking at the third bandit and the fourth bandit, they, like the second bandit, seemed to be very unwilling or even disgusted to join the team in front.

"You and Black Scorpion Village are not going to deal with each other?" Geng Xingshuang said directly.

The second bandit snorted and didn't answer.

The fourth bandit said: "We are at odds with each other and have deep hatred!"

Geng Xingshuang nodded. No wonder he followed the people from Black Scorpion Village but had to go to the guide alone to ask for directions. This was because he was afraid of being tricked by Black Scorpion Village!
