- 28 Pillar of the Country 7
Xi Sheng planned to stay at a trunk and observed the situation. However, things got worse so her plan wasn’t followed.
A little girl is protected by a maid while being surrounded by a bunch of robbers.
The other soldiers are already dead, and their horses are seized.
“How dare you do this! Don’t you know who we are?!” Although scared, the maid screamed with a shivering voice.
“Haha!”
“Playing strong? How feisty!”
The other thieves laugh maniacally.
The little girl in the maid’s embraced glared at the bandits. There are tears on her eyes, so her insult wasn’t of any use.
“My father will punish you all! If you dare lay your filthy hands on us, you will receive great punishment!”
The faces of the bandits were no longer happy but were adorned with mockery.
“How funny,” said by a thief who stepped forward. His eyes contain irony and resentment.
“You nobles rob us of commoners. You all knew that the incoming winter would be hard this year, yet you all still increase the tax. What would we eat when our rations are sent to your bellies?! We would die! But all of you didn’t care!”
The little girl was startled by the man’s appearance. There was a big and deep cut across his face.
“You’re scared? When I begged not to take our remaining food, what did you all do? You tried to beat us with your weapons and stole our harvested food! Just because we are nameless, do you think you could do that?”
The bandit’s eyes are getting heavier and heavier, the surrounding thieves are also getting gloomy.
“Hehe, now that we’re robbing you, why is it that we are bad and you, nobles, are not?”
The nasty eyes of the thief glanced the maid’s body. His eyes looking more lustful.
“Today, you will serve us and quenched our hatred,” the thief said as his eyes getting cloudy.
The other thieves understood what he said, their eyes are also getting perverted.
“Hehehe…”
“Boss let me warm her up!”
They all look at a bald thief with an eye patch.
“Just don’t damage the little girl. Hehe..”
Getting his permission, the thief slowly loosens his pants and in hurriedly walk to the maid’s direction.
Sensing their motives, the maid started to tear up and shouted: “Don’t approach us!”
The maid closed her eyes, hugged the little girl tightly and prayed in her heart.
“Be ready, haha—”
A slender body appeared out of nowhere and hit the man’s nape. The nameless thief who was boisterous earlier fell down.
Bam!
The laughing faces of the bandits are all frozen in shock.
“Who are you?!”
Xi Sheng didn’t look at them but kept her guard up. She kicked the unconscious thief’s body away from them.
“Don’t you know who we are?!”
One of the subordinates felt pissed at being ignored. He pointed his rusty and bloodied sword at Xi Sheng.
When Xi Sheng finally looks at them, the bandits were astounded.
A man or a woman?
No, a woman wouldn’t be that presumptuous!
That’s a man!
But how could a man be this stunning?
A mellow and attractive voice rang:”Know you? Aren’t you all nameless?”
Although they were amazed by Xi Sheng’s face, being insulted is another case.
“How arrogant!”
The man who yelled stepped forward, it is their boss. He caressed his beard and seized Xi Sheng.
“My name is Dum Gai!”
Dum Gai? [1]
“Heh! You heard our boss’ name and you already trembled!”
“Our boss Is the greatest!”
Pfttt. I’m sorry, I shouldn’t laugh at someone else’s name.
Xi Sheng tried to compose herself. Nevertheless, her hands are still shaking.
Xi Sheng aloofly said:”The one who named you has great foresight.” That person must have predicted that you will be like this.
Dum Gai puffed his chest proudly,”A noble named me!”
Dum Gai’s eyes turned sharp:”Pretty boy, stop making our conversation astray. Give the ladies to us! Or you will face bad luck!”
When Xi Sheng didn’t bulge in, the man shouted:”Prepare yourself!”
Xi Sheng’s eye twitched for a second. The naming system is really too complicated.
Someone leapt from the thieves’ side to Xi Sheng’s direction.
She didn’t close her eyes and dodged his attack. The moment she evaded it, her hands knocked the man’s nape.
“Ack!”
The attacker’s body also fell down. Xi Sheng didn’t forget to strike her second move. Her foot consciously sent the man to the fallen soldiers’ side.
“Hehe, you’ve got some skills boy. But can you handle all of us?”
The bandits giggle and took their bloodstained weapons out.
The smell of the blood became stronger to the point that its stench made her dizzy for a moment.
Xi Sheng glances at her back. The hopeful looks of the two girls behind her made her somewhat burdened. Especially the maid who’s giving her a wink.
Xi Sheng creased her eyebrows. This is not the time to flirt—oh, I’m sorry. The maid wasn’t flirting with her but giving her some hints.
She quickly glanced at the ‘dead’ soldiers who are slowly crawling.
So her help isn’t even needed! What a waste of her goodwill!
Anyway, from the way they orchestrated the scene it looks like this wasn’t a simple case of robbery.
“Dum Gai, was it? Anyway, I can defend myself from all of you, but I can’t surely protect the two behind me. So can you tell me why you are doing this?”
In their current situation, it’s really problematic to ensure the safety of the two girls behind her. So instead of fighting, she will act as the decoy and squeeze the information out of the robbers and handed the fighting to the soldiers.
Nevertheless, will her secret interrogation work?
“Huh?! Why should we tell you?!”
The faces of the bandits cracked up.
Xi Sheng sighed ‘pitifully’ as much as her mild facial paralysis permits her.
“You see, I’m a son of a farmer. I was forced to become a servant under my lordship. So I was wondering why would you do such a thing. Did the nobles really raise the tax? How are the farmers doing?”
“Boss, you didn’t believe her right? I’m sure that his story was just made up!”
Xi Sheng glances at him. She didn’t expect that someone had a brain. Well, if he could easily discern that she’s just bullshitting, then their boss could also see right through her?
Dum Gai signalled the man to shut his man. The man could only step backwards.
Dum Gai seized Xi Sheng. The pretty boy before him actually looks like a prince, but nobles are still nobles. They hated filth and being dishevelled. And the pretty boy before him is filthy as an animal. His clothes are torn and full of mud and dust. His hair wasn’t even properly tied, he’s as scrawny as a stick. Even if he’s not a noble or just a normal worker, people who were bestowed with a name share the same quality of having over-the-top pride that would never allow them to categorize themselves as a servant. Even he, Dum Gai, only became the leader of their group because he was named.
“Boss, did you forget how he acted arrogantly earlier? He even called us nameless!”
Seeing their boss being swayed by the pretty boy, the man quickly butted it.
He has a point, Dum Gai looked at Xi Sheng for confirmation.
Xi Sheng took note of the man. She shouldn’t have behaved pompously. Nonetheless, Dum Gai is already swayed by her.
She tilted her head:”Why? How could I know you when we are all nameless?”
Dum Gai played with his beard:”What province are you from?”
Xi Sheng shrugs her shoulders:” I can’t remember. I was taken when I was a child to pay for my parent’s debt.”
“Those nobles!”
The thieves ridiculed the nobles, and their hostility is overflowing.
When the other thieves started to believe her, Xi Sheng felt quite bad. Emotional manipulation is really bad, but it’s really effective ah.
“Pretty boy, listen well!”
“Boss, we shouldn’t trust him! It’s not like we will recruit him or anything!”
The thief glared at Xi Sheng.
Dum Gai laughs:”Brat, you really are cautious! Yes, we won’t recruit him, but take this as compensation. Because after this, we will make sure that butting in Dum Gai’s business will face severe punishment!”
Xi Sheng’s eyes dimmed. The bandits created a non-existent room for salvation. They cannot be saved anymore.
Dum Gai looks at Xi Sheng, there is a grin hanging on his face.
He pointed his finger at the little girl:”The young lady behind you is a noble from Jing country. Although they look like they were simply passing here, they are actually carrying supplies with them! We are paid to rob them, and it doesn’t matter what happens to them. As long as we did this job, we are going to be paid twice…”
Dum Gai spoke on how they will earn money and it made Xi Sheng sick.
Xi Sheng tried to be ‘shocked’ as possible:”Who told you to do such a vile thing?”

Dum Gai shrugs:”We only know that he has a high rank. So, young lady, don’t blame us for being vicious. Blame your luck.”
Xi Sheng sighs in disappointment.
“Now, now, give the maid and the young lady to us and we will at least spare you!”
The other thieves voiced their objection on letting Xi Sheng off.
“Okay! Okay! Do what you want, as long as you get what we need!”
Xi Sheng understood what they meant. Her hands clenched in anger, there are no morals that exist in the thieves’ dictionary.
Her eyes wandered on the other side. Since the ‘corpses’ are already done with their preparation, then there’s nothing to fear already.
“Hehehe don’t worry boss. We will enjoy this ‘meal’ very well.
Daggers, swords, knives, ropes…All the weapons of the thieves are ready.
Xi Sheng didn’t hold back, she raised her hand and added intimidation to her voice:”Come.”
