The woman seemed to have just realized what was going on, and her eyes, which were staring into the distance, suddenly became sinister.

“You dare to trick me, huh? Hmph, the next time I see you, I’ll make you kneel under my pomegranate skirt, and then I’ll dump you!’

“No, of course we’ll talk about it after we use it well. I’m still a little heartbroken to get rid of such a top-grade man like this.”

“Slutty woman, are you smitten again after seeing a pretty boy? That man looks like a fat sheep, and the horse he’s riding is definitely of the highest quality. It’s possible that he’s going to sell it for ten million taels of gold!’

A few men came out from behind rocks, trees, and even a few other holes

covered with camouflage nets. The leader was a fat, dark-skinned man, who said sourly, “Don’t meddle in my business! That man had already seen through your trick, so he didn’t get down from the horse to save me! If it wasn’t for you, I would have already had a good time with him!”

The woman’s expression changed, and her original delicate and innocent look disappeared in an instant, replaced by a bold and unrestrained look.

“F*ck, if big brother wasn’t here, we wouldn’t have let that kid run away!’

“That’s right, I say, Xin Niangzi, you keep it for yourself, don’t think that Boss can always indulge you. If you go too far and the boss turns hostile, don’t blame us for not warning you!’

A dark and skinny man chimed in.

Although he was short, he was born with a fierce look, especially his pair of triangular eyes, which gave off an ominous glint. No one dared to look down on him because of his height.

“Mind your own business. You haven’t even understood how to live your life. Where do you have the time to worry about others?”

The woman said indifferently, as if she was not worried that the men would do anything to her in their anger.

In fact, they really did not dare to.

This was their boss’ woman, and the words ‘scheming like a snake’ were not enough to describe her.

She was the boss’s precious baby. It would be good enough if they didn’t fall for her schemes and suffer a fate worse than death. Who would dare to have any ideas about her?

Unless they didn’t want to live anymore!

After Gu Ying left the Mountain Valley, he headed in another direction.

He made some guiding traces. If someone really followed the traces, they would be led in other directions.

There was no tail following him. It seemed that the people who set up the trap had some eyesight and had already smelled something from his behavior, so they did not rashly follow him.

However, Gu Ying did not intend to let those people go. Sooner or later, they would become a hidden danger for the survivors, so it was better to eliminate this hidden danger now.

On the way back, Gu Ying specially returned to the place where those people had set up an ambush and found traces of no less than eight people

“There aren’t many people here. They don’t have any injuries, and it seems like they’re not hungry.”

He carefully identified the traces and made some conclusions.

The people who ambushed him were all strong men, except for that woman.

Gu Ying didn’t follow the tracks immediately. Instead, he went to the big black horse first, took off his shirt, tied it to the horse’s reins, and made a special knot.

“Alright, bring my news back.”

He patted the big black horse’s neck and pointed in the direction of the small mountain village. The horse immediately nodded, snorted, and galloped away.

This time, Gu Ying followed the traces left behind by the robbers and went in another direction.

Although he was fast, he had to stop from time to time to carefully distinguish the direction.

The weather had started to warm up, and the South was about to enter a rainy day. The rain had started to increase.

The sun had been shining brightly just a moment ago, but now there was a layer of dark clouds.

The wind started to blow on the ground, and it looked like it was going to rain again.

Once the rain fell, the remaining traces would be washed away, and it would take some effort to find those people again.

Gu Ying quickened his pace. Fortunately, those people did not split up at the end, but moved together. This way, the footprints they left behind and other clues were clearer, which saved him a lot of effort.

Before the first drop of rain fell, he finally found where the group of people had settled down.

It was in another village ten miles to the East. It was also an abandoned village, but it was far less complete than the one where the survivors had settled down.

There were only twenty-odd families in the village. When the natural disaster came, only a few could escape.

There were only five or six relatively intact houses left in the entire village. The rest were all broken walls.

Gu Ying didn’t enter the village rashly. Instead, he carefully observed the

surrounding environment and found a high vantage point, ready to explore the situation.

However, when he reached there, he found that there were already people guarding it.

It seemed that these people were not ordinary disaster victims, but mountain bandits who had been in the grass for a long time. That was why they had such a sense of defense.

However, to Gu Ying, dealing with an open sentry wasn’t a difficult thing.

The one guarding it was a man with a full beard. He was leaning against a big rock in boredom, nibbling on a cold piece of ice.

“Damn it, they’re having a good time down there, and I have to stand guard here. Now it’s raining, and I’m going to be drenched!”

He was cursing and swearing. He was so bored that he could only kick the gravel on the ground to vent his anger.

Perhaps there were not enough people at the foot of the mountain, or perhaps they felt that in the current situation, the government could not even take care of themselves and would not come to find trouble with them, so such an important position was only guarded by the bearded man.

It was originally a forest, but now the trees had been burnt, leaving only dark branches.

The bearded man had no place to shelter himself from the rain, and there was nothing around him to shelter him. As he said, if the rain got heavier, he would definitely be drenched.

In a short while, the rain gradually began to get heavier, from a drizzling rain to a needle-like drizzle.

Although it wouldn’t get people completely wet, the wet clothes and the cold air of the late spring would make people feel extremely uncomfortable.

The bearded man couldn’t sit still after sitting for a while, so he got up and prepared to move to another place.

He didn’t dare to return to the village. If he left his post and was caught by the boss, he wouldn’t have a good ending.

He could only find a place to hide from the rain within the range where he could still see the situation of the village below.

With this move, he picked the hiding spot of Gu Ying.

Two protruding stones were pressed against each other, forming a narrow space. The stone eaves that extended out created a small space. In the case of the rain not being heavy, it was completely possible to temporarily shelter from the rain.

When Gu Ying saw the bearded man’s body, he had already predicted his intentions. He preemptively dodged and jumped into the bearded man’s blind spot under the cover of the stone.

Then, he went behind him and knocked him out with a hand knife.

The bearded man had only taken half a step when his vision turned black and he fell head first. Then, he woke up with a sharp pain from his renzhong acupoint.

He found himself lying on the ground, and a man wearing a half-mask was staring down at him..
