The First Mix Second Volume Daughter Country Chapter 14 Male Calamity (Part 2)
I didn't expect such a situation, in the Women's Country, there are female emperors, female generals, female bodyguards, and female prison guards. Although it is reasonable to infer that female bandits would appear according to this logic, I didn't think they would come so quickly...
A group of men had just escaped from the dragon's pool and were now entering the tiger's lair, their faces pale with worry.
The female bandit on horseback stretched her waist and said lazily, "Can the people opposite hear my words clearly? We only want wealth, not lives. If you have anything valuable on you, take it out voluntarily." She wasn't wearing armor, just a cowhide wrapped around her waist, which accentuated her slender and curvaceous figure as she stretched, making her look even more charming.
The women under her command were either on horseback or on foot, each holding various types of weapons, and although they were a group of women, they exuded an aura of murder.
I turned back to look at this bunch of useless people behind me, each with a tired and haggard face, let alone fight against others, they can't even run.
I took a deep breath, stepped forward and gave the female bandit a fist bump, saying: "Hello, big sister."
The woman bandit looked at me with interest and said: "Are you the leader of this group?"
"I sighed and said, 'Well, I suppose so.'"
"Alright, you've understood what I said. Leave the money, sister, I'm not in the mood today, just don't bother me."
It seems we've encountered a group of professional bandits with strong moral character, who rob for money but not for women. I sighed and said, "Sister, take a look at us, do we look like rich people?"
The woman bandit stretched her neck to glance at our group and said impatiently, "You're not fortune tellers, so what's your business here?"
"I said sincerely: 'Can't you tell from our clothes? We are prisoners who just escaped from prison.'"
"Oh?"
The woman's eyes widened slightly, and she suddenly became interested: "Isn't that the male prison camp in the suburbs of Beijing?"
I said: "Exactly."
"How interesting, I heard there was such a place and was thinking of visiting when I'm free, didn't expect all of you to run out."
The woman bandit asked curiously: "Tell me, how did you guys run?"
"What's there to say, over a thousand men were being controlled by less than a hundred female prison guards, they bullied me badly, so I took a deep breath and led my brothers in a charge out of there."
"Haha, there's something so interesting." The female bandit turned her head and laughed with her subordinates: "A group of men actually escaped from prison, it can be seen that the saying is true - a rabbit in a hurry will also bite people." The female subordinates burst out laughing, I was so annoyed that I wanted to give each of them a big slap. What's there to laugh about? Women are really unreasonable creatures, no wonder they cry when watching those brainless dramas.
The female bandit smiled for a long time, waved her hand and said: "Alright, alright, we are bandits and you are escaped prisoners. Speaking of which, everyone is half a fellow practitioner. I won't make things difficult for you. However, seeing you makes me think of something. Our mountain stronghold recently lacks a batch of uniform military uniforms. It's actually not much work, but the ordinary people don't dare to take it. You are from the male prison camp, and spinning and weaving clothes should be no problem. If you can do it, I'll give this job to you. What do you think?"
I was completely bewildered and inexplicably said: "You want us to make clothes for you?"
"That's right."
"Can't we just not go?"
That female bandit said with a smile: "What I, Mei Li Hong, admire most are people with guts. You dare to escape from prison and I really admire that. Let me make things clear, if you work for me, you will be paid every day, no free labor. If you don't want to do it, I won't force you."
"She smiled slightly and said coldly, 'Actually, if it weren't for seeing that you have nowhere else to go, I wouldn't want to take you in.'"
I asked Geng Ling: "What do you think?"
Geng Ling said, "What she says is not unreasonable either. Brothers are both hungry and tired, in this wilderness, if we encounter the government army, it will be a complete defeat, so let's make some adjustments here."
"Is she one of us?" Xiao Yan asked in a low voice.
I waved my hand and said, "Don't worry about this, we're just over a thousand people, no more than two shoulders carrying a head, at worst we'll just do some work for her for free."
Geng Ling said: "Also take this opportunity to avoid the officialdom's limelight."
I said to Mei Li Hong: "We're done!"
Meili Hong smiled and said: "That's right, earning some money here is better than you guys dying in the wilderness." I said: "But you have to take care of our food and lodging."
"Rubbish!" said Mei Li Hong, "Would I, Mei Damao, have you work without feeding you?"
So we followed Mei Li Hong's men up the mountain, and although these men of mine were all rascals, they were also afraid when they saw bandits, fortunately, along the way, they learned to be content with their circumstances.
The mountain in front of us is called Shén Fēng Mountain, and Mei Lì Hóng's stronghold is also called Shén Fēng Stronghold. The stronghold was built on the middle of the mountain, and when we came up to take a look, all we saw was that the terrain was vast and majestic, with clouds and mist surrounding us. Mei Lì Hóng had more than 300 people under his command, and on this mountain ridge, it looked like a small town, with each of the rascals having their own houses, blacksmith shops, tailor shops, and everything else you could think of. The mountain also had several acres of terraced fields carved out, and although they were a group of bandits, their homes were neat and beautiful, looking like a paradise on earth. Even though the women had become bandits, their living standards hadn't decreased at all.
Mei Li Hong was indeed generous, and that night she hosted a grand feast to entertain us uninvited guests. I thought the men who were used to living hard lives would indulge in drinking and eating, but it turned out they didn't drink much, only ate a lot of meat. When asked why, they all said they couldn't hold their liquor, each one as proper as a bride-to-be. My mood was ruined, but Mei Li Hong kept raising her glass to me as I drank, and although we were relying on others' hospitality, this was still the most enjoyable day I'd had since arriving in this land of women. The wine at the banquet wasn't very strong, so when it came time to drain our cups, I ended up getting drunk along with a group of female bandits. Mei Li Hong got tipsy and leaned against my shoulder, laughing: "Long Yang, you're the only man who understands me."
I too was lost in the moment, seeing a group of charming girls in front of me, and unconsciously treated this as a nightclub. I kept putting my arms around different girls, teasing one after another: "Come on, let's have some fun, and I'll sing you a song." The girls giggled and surrounded me like a merry-go-round, each with sparkling eyes and charming smiles.
Yu Manli's face turned red as she sighed repeatedly: "Too unseemly, Dragon Brother is too unseemly..." A girl came to invite him for a drink, Yu Manli looked down, not even daring to raise her eyes.
The sweet and hot Mei Li Hong suddenly hugged me, laughing and saying: "How about you sleep with me tonight?" As soon as her subordinates heard this, they all smiled and walked away.
As soon as I heard that MM had actively proposed such a request, I was so happy that my nose was about to burst out with snot. However, when I turned around and saw Geng Lian and the others looking at me with concern, their eyes seemed to be worried that their leader would compromise and sell himself for fame. Fortunately, I still had a clear mind and reacted quickly, saying "No good."
Mei Li Hong felt a bit surprised and smiled: "What's wrong? Are you dissatisfied with my appearance? Then tell me, who do you have your eyes on?"
I glanced at her and hastily said in a tone similar to that of an old monk entering meditation: "In short, it's not good."
This female bandit has a beautiful figure and a delicate face, she can be considered a top-notch beauty. However, in the Women's Country, even if you're a celestial being, you can't just sleep with anyone. Especially now, once you sleep with someone, you'll become the leader's wife. Although it's the same bed, I still mind who's sleeping and who's being slept with...
I muttered to Mei Li Hong: "Wait until your daughter's country has a man as emperor, and then I'll sleep with you again."
Meili Hong was taken aback, then burst out laughing: "You're really drunk, okay, if you don't want to sleep, I won't force you, I've never forced a man."
The next day we started working on the mountain, spinning and embroidering were a piece of cake for them, but I was neither willing nor able to do it, relying on being the eldest brother, I shamelessly wandered around the mountain, in front of the blacksmith's shop I ran into Geng Ling, he couldn't work because he only had one arm, two women inside the shop were forging iron, the wall was hung with all kinds of weapons, one woman held a piece of red-hot iron with tongs, and the other woman hammered away, Geng Ling stood by watching absent-mindedly, I walked up to him and asked: "Is it nice to watch?"
Geng Ling was obviously a bit distracted and casually said: "Good looking..."
I took a glance at the woman who was hammering, the shop was sweltering, she only wore a thin shirt, her breasts were shaking up and down with the hammer, I said slyly: "Really beautiful, didn't expect Brother Geng to have such interests"
"Ah, what's gotten into you?"
I poked him and he nodded in understanding: "We're both men, don't pretend."
Geng Ling said: "I was thinking that if we want to join the army, we need to have a suitable weapon, and this skill must be learned."
I blushed and hastily said: "This job should have been done by men in the first place."
Geng Ling stepped forward and said to the iron-smashing woman, "How can I help you?"
The woman lost her smile and said, "Which man can do ironwork?" However, someone helped her and she was very willing, so she handed the iron hammer to Geng Ling. Geng Ling took it with one hand and in just a few strikes, he pounded the red-hot iron into a thin sheet. The woman exclaimed unexpectedly, "Wow, you're really not bad."
Geng Ling asked her a few more questions about how to forge fire and how to interlock, returned the hammer to her, and said to Tie Pu and me: "It seems that there are still many things to learn in order to leave the Women's Country. I have an idea and would like to ask for your opinion."
"You said"
"I want to teach the brothers who have been brought out the secrets of cultivation, I don't know if you agree or disagree?"
I said: "This is a good thing, whoever wants to learn, you teach."
"Thank you." Geng Ling said: "We can't delay our own affairs, we men are inferior to women in the Daughter Country, and outside the Daughter Country, we are also inferior to others. So strength is the most important thing. I'm thinking that if over 1,000 of us can reach the Sword Child level, whichever country we join will welcome us? And with the Sword God's Secret Order, ordinary people should be able to reach this level in about 10 days."
"After that, work during the day and gather them at night to study with you, how about that?"
Geng Ling nodded and said: "Not only should we practice our internal energy, but it's also best to learn some martial arts moves. It would be even better if you could learn how to hammer iron, build houses, plow the fields and scatter seeds."
I smiled and said, "Aren't all those bandits on the mountain ready-made teachers? I'll talk to Mei Li Hong later."
As a result, I told Mei Lihong, and Mei Lihong was all for it. We were going to repair and rebuild the houses on the mountain anyway, and she was worried that there wouldn't be enough manpower. When she heard that we were willing to help, she was overjoyed. I also suggested sending people to help her subordinates make weapons and farm the land. These tasks are all hard work, and Mei Lihong was even more delighted, to the point where she wanted me to assign a group of people to follow her own people and learn from them, so that in the future she could just sit back and reap the benefits.
So I and Geng Ling convened a private battalion-level cadre meeting, each battalion sent out a squad to study separately, and at night the squad leaders would open a supplementary class in their own rooms, and then go back and pass it on to the people below.
So, we unfolded a lively and bustling learning life at Shén Fēng Zhài. During the day, most of us went to make clothes for the bandits, while a small portion went to learn various crafts from the people on the mountain. At night, we practiced qigong collectively. As for martial arts moves, the bandits were all skilled hands. I told them not to be so stubborn and to show off their "charms" appropriately - who would dare not teach if you put your heart into it? It's just like a female apprentice learning a craft from a male master; as long as you're dedicated, the other party won't have any chance to hide anything. However, if I were to say something on a larger scale, I wouldn't dare...
A week later, I was chatting with Mei Li Hong Qian when Qi Xiao Huan suddenly rushed into the hall, panting and out of breath, saying "Long, Long Ge".
"What's the big hurry?"
Qī Xiǎo Huán said with a sly smile: "I have an important discovery that I want to share with you and Mei Village Master."
"What discovery?"
Qī Xiǎo Huán's eyes rolled a few times and she said: "I found a team of horse-drawn carriages at the foot of the mountain, probably over 200 vehicles, all full of good stuff..."
"Spare me, what's it got to do with you? You really think you're some kind of bandit?"
Mei Li Hong glared at me and said: "What's with the way you're talking? What's wrong with bandits?"
I smiled and said, "Isn't this a case of the eunuch being anxious while the emperor is not?"
Mei Li Hong glanced at Qi Xiao Huan and said: "Okay, none of my people discovered it but you managed to get ahead, tell me, what did they say in the car?"
"Look at the wheel tracks, there are at least 50 carts loaded with silver in front!"
Meili Hong jumped up excitedly: "What did you say? Silver?"
Qī Xiǎo Huán continued: "The cars behind have food and supplies, and there are no troops escorting them, they're just a group of horsemen." It seems that this kid has learned a lot from Méi Lì Hóng's subordinates in recent days, and the trick of scouting ahead is even more impressive.
Mei Li Hong's expression turned serious as soon as he heard it was a horse team, and asked: "Do you know whose car and horse are passing by?"
Qī Xiǎo Huán said: "On that flag is written a 'Su' character."
Meili Hong sat down immediately and said irritably: "What else can Su's family say? Let them go."
"I wonder what's wrong with the Su family?"
Mei Li Hong said irritably: "You don't know Su Chongwei?"
"What's their family business?"
"It's good that you know."
I slammed my fist on the table, making it jump: "Why didn't you rob?"
Meili looked at me sideways and said, "If you know Su Chongwei, don't you know who her daughter is?"
"Isn't it just Su Jing that little girl?"
Meili Hong smiled and said: "Oh, you still know?" I said: "Just because of this?"
"Then what do you say? Don't mention that I'm not to be trifled with, even if all the bandits and outlaws of the entire Federation Continent were tied together, they wouldn't be able to withstand a single finger from him."
"Do you know that Su Jing is currently not in mainland?"
"Regardless of whether she's here or not, we should still give Sword God some face. This deal can't be done."
My face turned red with rage as I said: "If it were someone else's, that would be one thing, but if this belongs to them, I'll have to take care of him once and for all!"
Geng Lingdao said: "Xiaolong, think thrice, aren't you and Su Jianguo old acquaintances?"
"I shouted loudly: 'What's wrong? She and I have a grudge! How miserable she made my old man, taking a few carts of things as compensation is not wrong, is it?'"
I'm so angry when I hear those two words, Su Jing. If it weren't for her, how would I have ended up in this miserable place? If it weren't for her, how would I have almost been taken advantage of by a woman? How would I have ended up in prison and witnessed over 300 girls unable to sleep... Now we're struggling to survive here, relying on women to support us. We can't even afford to eat or live without their help. If she wants us to leave this place, these material things are crucial for us! Even if her mother handed them over to me personally, it wouldn't make up for a tenth of the emotional trauma I've suffered!
Meili Hong smiled slyly at me and said: "Who else do you have a grudge with?" The implication was clear, mocking me for being unworthy.
"I said loudly: 'No matter what, I'll take this batch of goods.'"
Meili Hong played with her fingers and said calmly: "Anyway, I won't get involved in this matter, you can take it yourself."
I sneered: "Do you think you're the only one with people? My brothers are numerous too!"
"Hey, you're getting angry again?"
I rushed to Xiao Huan and waved my hand: "Go, find all our brothers and let's go do something that men should do!"
At that time, those brothers who were still working hard in various places were summoned by me to the empty ground. They all didn't know what I was going to do and looked at each other in dismay.
I stood on a rock, waving my arm and shouting: "There are people at the foot of the mountain who have sent us many good things. Whether you want them or not depends on your courage - Qi Xiaohuan, tell the brothers what's in those carts?"
Qī Xiǎo Huán said: "I didn't see anything else clearly, but one thing is for sure, there are 50 carts of silver."
Everyone shouted in unison: "We want!"
I chuckled and said: "If you want it, follow me, but listen clearly, this isn't robbery, someone owes us."
Some people have already turned a blind eye, who cares about three seven twenty one, and having lived in the bandit's den for several days, they have long been influenced by their surroundings and consider themselves to be fellow travelers of Mei Li Hong, shouting together: "Let's go!"
Liu Jingdao said: "I disagree, if we do this, won't we really become bandits?"
I said: "You can reserve your opinion if you don't agree, but this is a personal grudge." Mei Li Hong asked cautiously: "Are you really going to do it?"
"I said seriously: 'Do I look like I'm joking?'"
Meili Hong stared blankly for a moment, then suddenly gave me a thumbs up and said, "Alright, you really are like a girl!"
Is this praise for me?...
