Qin Hong's eyes stayed on Lou Yan for a moment longer, and then he looked away.
He lowered his head and asked his daughter: "Where did this guest come from? Why doesn't Dad remember that you know such a person?"
Qin Zhen smiled: "I picked it up on the road."
Qin Hong raised his eyebrows and lowered his voice and asked: "Didn't you snatch it because you look good?"
Qin Zhen was silent and looked at Qin Hong expressionlessly.
Even if she wanted to rob him, she wouldn't rob him from a beast like Xiao Jue.
There was only one possibility for her to rob Xiao Jue, and that was to cut him into pieces.
Qin Hong saw his daughter's face turned dark and immediately became scared: "Okay, okay, I didn't steal it, I picked it up."
He didn't look at Xiao Jue and the other two. He simply pointed to a place and asked Zhao Qing to take them down while he coaxed his daughter.
On the other side, Zhao Qing took Xiao Jue and Lou Yan to their residence.
Seeing Xiao Jue looking back at Qin Zhen three times a step, Zhao Qing felt a little unhappy and said coolly: "Don't look around, lest you see something you shouldn't and hurt yourself."
Xiao Jue's expression froze, he couldn't control it well, and his voice was a little panicked: "I, I just..."
"My master is just curious. The girl seems to have a very good relationship with her father." Lou Yan took over and said, "Ordinary people rarely see such a close relationship."
Speaking of Qin Zhen, Zhao Qing's expression softened obviously.
"That's right, Zhen Zhen is the apple of our head's eye, and she's so precious." Zhao Qing spoke of Qin Zhen with gentleness in his eyes: "This is the only eldest lady in our Longhu Mountain, and she loves and dotes on her."
I'm here, for fear of being wronged."
After I finished speaking, I felt that I had said a bit too much.
He looked back at the two of them with a warning look and said, "Don't make any crooked ideas."
Lou Yan lowered his head: "Don't dare."
Zhao Qing pushed open a room to let the two of them in, and said calmly: "You live here, and if you have nothing to do, don't go out and walk around. Someone will bring you three meals a day, so just stay there."
"Don't be too curious, otherwise you won't know how you died."
After Zhao Qing said this, he slammed the door, turned around and left.
As soon as Zhao Qing left, Xiao Jue suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and later realized that his legs were a little weak.
He walked a few steps quickly and sat down on the chair, so that he could barely maintain his appearance.
Lou Yan glanced at him, walked over, poured him a glass of water, put it in front of him, and said, "Don't be nervous."
"Are you not nervous?" Xiao Jue said in a deep voice: "Where do you think this is? This is Longhu Mountain, a bandit's den!"
He glanced at the closed door and said in a low voice: "If we are not careful, we will be chewed up by these bandits."
"Because of this, Master can't be nervous." Lou Yan said, "You don't want them to see anything, right?"
Xiao Jue: "..."
He raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brow, and after a while he said, "I'm still impulsive."
He always felt that he shouldn't have broken into the bandit's den so recklessly.
Before the imperial army arrived, he and Lou Yan went ahead to inquire about the situation, wanting to ensure that the bandit suppression was flawless. But he didn't expect that he would be lost in the snow and wind, and by chance, they would meet him.
The daughter of the bandit leader was brought back to the village.
Lou Yan saw Xiao Jue's retreat and frowned: "Master is someone who wants to do great things. If he can't bear this little setback, there will be more obstacles in the future. Will Master have to retreat then?"
Xiao Jue blushed at what Lou Yan said.
He looked at Lou Yan coldly: "Are you lecturing me?"
Lou Yan: "Don't dare!"
Xiao Jue: "..."
He didn't dare. He thought Lou Yan was very brave.
But since he still relied on Lou Yan, Xiao Jue had no choice but to suppress his dissatisfaction.
Seeing Xiao Jue's silence, Lou Yan thought he had heard it, so he said: "Master, don't worry, I will find out the situation as soon as possible and find a way to send a message down the mountain to our people."
Xiao Jue glanced at him and suddenly said: "What do you think of Qin Hong's daughter?"
Lou Yan's eyes moved and he looked at Xiao Jue silently.
Xiao Jue said: "We are in this bandit's den. If we don't have someone to protect us, I will always feel uneasy."
Lou Yan's eyes turned cold: "What do you want to do?"
"I think that girl has a lot of say, and Qin Hong loves her very much." Xiao Jue said, "If we have her protection, we will definitely be able to sleep peacefully."
Xiao Jue: "With her help when the time comes, we will definitely be able to get twice the result with half the effort. Once these bandits are eliminated, my father will be impressed by me."
Lou Yan frowned: "She is innocent."
Xiao Jue sneered and disagreed: "She is also a bandit, how can she be innocent?"
"Don't provoke her!" Lou Yan said word for word, his tone was serious, almost a warning.
Xiao Jue narrowed his eyes and said nothing more.
But he didn't take Lou Yan's words to heart.
There is only one female bandit at your side, so what if you provoke her?
Lou Yan knew that Xiao Jue didn't listen to what he said, and he felt a little annoyed. He couldn't help but say: "That woman is not simple, be careful and fall into her hands."
"Are you too nervous?" Xiao Jue frowned: "She's just a little girl, she's not as powerful as you say."
Lou Yan: "She is not an ordinary little girl, she is..."
"Okay!" Xiao Jue interrupted Lou Yan, stood up and went into the back room, obviously not wanting to talk to Lou Yan anymore.
Lou Yan stood there, rubbing his brows helplessly.
He turned and walked towards the door.
He opened the door and before he could even step over the threshold, a knife was placed on his neck.
Lou Yan froze and slowly raised his hand.
Only then did he see that the door of their house was guarded.
"What are you doing?" The bandit guarding the door stared at him coldly.
"My master has caught a cold. I just wanted to ask if there is any medicine..."
"Go in and wait."
The bandit pushed the person into the house unreasonably, then reached out and slammed the door.
Lou Yan stood in the room with a solemn expression.
He never thought that the people in Longhu Mountain would be so wary.
With someone guarding him, it would be difficult for him to do anything, let alone send news down the mountain.
On the other side, the news quickly reached Qin Zhen's ears.
"You've caught a cold and want some medicine?" Qin Zhen raised her eyebrows, sneered, and said, "I remember that there was horse plague a while ago. Is there still some medicine left from the doctor's prescription?"
The bandit who came to report the news was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Qin Zhen in shock: "What the lady means..."
"Send it to him," Qin Zhen said calmly: "Aren't plagues caused by humans and plagues caused by animals the same? If animals can eat the medicine, so can he."
The little bandit who reported the news had his mouth twitching, thinking to himself how the people in that room had offended the eldest lady.
"Also, you must see him drink it with your own eyes." Qin Zhen said leisurely.
The little bandit agreed and turned around.
Qin Zhen stood there for a while and suddenly wanted to take a look.
She wanted to give Xiao Jue the medicine with her own hands.
As soon as the little bandit left, Qin Zhen got up and went to find Xiao Jue.
When she arrived, the little bandit just delivered the medicine into the house.
At this time, the medicine bowl was placed in front of Xiao Jue, still steaming.
