When Shi Anan heard this line, the corners of her mouth twitched. How old-fashioned!

And this group of small fry are trying to rob people by imitating others, but they don’t even have a decent knife?

Shi Anan pretended to be scared and said, "You, who are you!"

A leader among the men stepped forward and said, "I am Hao Niubi!"

Poof—Shi Anan really couldn't help laughing, and the others couldn't help laughing either.

"Laugh, laugh, laugh, what's so funny! Hurry up, hand over the valuables and you can spare your lives!" Hao Niubi said impatiently.

Do these strangers have some serious illness? They are laughing so happily even when being robbed.

"What if we have no money?" Shi Anan stopped laughing, cleared her throat and replied.

"No money? How can you be poor when you're dressed so nicely? Do you think I'm stupid?" Hao Niubi looked An An up and down. This girl was so pretty and fair-skinned, and her clothes didn't even have a patch on them, yet she lied to him and said she had no money?

Just because he is uneducated doesn't mean he is stupid!

"Hey man, we really have no money. Have you heard about the disaster outside? We are fleeing here and now we don't have a penny." Shi Anan continued to act pitiful.

"I know you've suffered a disaster. Recently, many outsiders have come here, but they are all in rags and look so weak that they seem to be on their last breath. You are dressed so cleanly and neatly, and you can tell at a glance that you are not poor. Don't try to fool me!" Hao Niubi still didn't believe it.

"Boss, why are you wasting so much time talking to them? If they don't give us the money, just rob us. These girls are so pretty. If you don't have money, just take them home to be your wives!" A skinny monkey-like man behind Hao Niubi looked at Shi Anan with gleaming eyes.

"Pah!" Hao Niubi slapped the skinny monkey on the head and said, "Put away your evil thoughts. We only rob him of his money and not his body. Be careful or I'll tell your wife when I get back!"

When the skinny monkey heard this, he quickly said, "No, no, no, boss, I was wrong. I was thinking that there are so many bachelors among my brothers, and I can take her back to be their wives. Please don't tell my wife, otherwise I will be finished."

The tigress at home must have broken his legs.

Hao Niubi sneered at his useless look and continued to say to Shi Anan: "How about it, have you thought about it, do you want to hand it over voluntarily, or wait for us to snatch it!"

Shi Anan spread her hands and said, "We really don't have any money."

"Hmph, if you don't accept my toast, then you'll have to pay me back! Brothers, follow me and rob them!" Seeing that Shi An An was unmoved, Hao Niubi took the lead and rushed forward with a hatchet in hand, trying to catch them and rob them of their money.

"Miss, be careful!" Mu Shan blocked Shi Anan behind him and rushed out to fight with the group of big men.

"Yier, go and help!" Ruan turned around and shouted to Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi nodded and rushed over like a gust of wind. As soon as he joined, the battle instantly became one-sided.

The group of burly robbers had never learned any martial arts moves and could only rely on brute force in hand-to-hand combat. It was okay when they faced Mu Shan. They could barely hold him off because they had weapons and several people worked together to attack him. But they didn't expect that this tall, thin, fair-skinned young master was actually a martial artist.

They couldn't even launch a single attack against him, and after a short while, a group of people were lying on the ground.

Hao Niubi and his brothers were wailing in pain on the ground.

"Wow!" Shi Anan and other onlookers applauded in admiration. It's amazing that little Piaoliang also knows martial arts!

He can fight, make money, and is honest and obedient. What a great teammate!

As the son of the Duke of Weiguo, Xiao Yi did not like to go out and meet people, but he had been practicing martial arts since he was a child. Others thought that he only loved to study those craftsmen's stuff and was not good at either literature or martial arts, but they did not know that how could the son of the Duke of Weiguo be a real waste.

As soon as he finished playing, he instantly restrained his cool and arrogant temperament, and turned into a background board, silently shrinking among the others, his whole body saying, "Don't cue me."

At that time, An An looked at Hao Niubi lying on the ground wailing, and said with a smile: "Do you still want to rob me now?"

Hao Niubi was in so much pain that he cried and snotted: "Please spare my life, please spare my life, I won't dare to do it again, never again!"

"We are the ones who didn't recognize the real man and offended you all. But I have parents and children to take care of. I robbed people just to make a living. I didn't really hurt anyone. Please let us go this time!"

Shi Anan could of course see that this group of people were stupid and had never seen blood. They were just using the noise to scare people, otherwise Xiao Yi would not have shown mercy and given them the opportunity to lie here and beg for mercy.

"Well, I'll ask you some questions. If you answer well, I'll let you go." Shi Anan thought for a while and said.

"You ask, you ask, I will tell you as long as I know it." Hao Niubi nodded quickly in agreement.

Shi Anan nodded with satisfaction at his tactful look and asked:

"Where is this place?"

"Lingnan!"

What? They were washed all the way from the capital to Lingnan by the tsunami? Xiao Yi and his group’s place of exile?

No wonder there were so many lush trees and fog in the forest just now.

The reason why Lingnan became a place of exile was because of its remote location, complex terrain and harsh environment. Due to the obstruction of tall mountains and forests and the existence of miasma, many outsiders would get lost in the mountains and forests.

The thought flashed through An'an's mind for only a moment, and she continued to ask: "Has there never been an earthquake here? Has there ever been a tsunami?"

"I felt an earthquake some time ago, but it was not very strong. As for the tsunami, isn't that rising water?" Hao Niubi asked curiously. Although some places in Lingnan are close to the sea, he is far away from the sea. How could a tsunami happen?

"Is the water level just rising here?" Shi Anan asked in surprise.

"Yes, a while ago, there was no rain or anything, but the water level rose a lot for no apparent reason, causing all the crops in our village to be flooded. Since we had no food to eat, we resorted to robbery."

“Besides the locals, there were few outsiders coming here before. But recently, for some reason, there are more outsiders. I heard that there was a disaster outside, and they all came here to escape.

"It's really strange. This place has been a place of exile since ancient times, and most people avoid it. This is the first time I see so many outsiders.

Through Hao Niubi's chattering, Shi Anan roughly sorted out her thoughts.

First of all, this is Lingnan, the place of exile that everyone despised. But for some reason, Lingnan did not suffer any damage from earthquakes and tsunamis. Only the rising water level flooded some grain and houses.

It was not destroyed, which was a good thing for them. It meant that Lingnan could still survive for the time being. I just didn't know whether it was only Lingnan that was fine or other places were also fine.

Shi Anan always felt that since it was the end of the world, it would definitely not be just one place that suffered the disaster.

The first wave of disasters, earthquakes and tsunamis were concentrated in the north around the capital. So what kind of disaster will Lingnan suffer next?

It's useless to think so much now. After experiencing earthquakes, tsunamis and floating on the water for so long, everyone finally landed and found a place where their living order has not been affected temporarily. Even if this place is Lingnan with harsh conditions, they want to have a good rest first and then consider the next path.

So, Shi Anan said to Hao Niubi: "Can you take us to your village to stay for a few days?"

They were unfamiliar with the place and it took a lot of effort for them to get out of the miasma. If there were no locals to lead the way, they would inevitably have no idea where they were going.

These guys don't look like vicious people, so we can go and take a break among them.

"Ah? Are you going to our village?" Hao Niubi asked in surprise.

"Is it not possible? Do you not allow outsiders to enter your village?" Shi Anan asked back.

"Oh, that's not the case. It's just that our village is very poor, and there are not many people. We don't have much food now, so I'm afraid we can't entertain you well." Hao Niubi, who was frightened by the beating, dared not say no, but they really didn't have any extra food.

"Don't worry, we have our own food, so you don't have to pay for it. We just want to stay here for a few days." Shi Anan saw his dilemma.

"Oh oh oh, then follow me." Hao Niu Bi climbed up from the ground with a grin. The young master hit him so hard that it hurt him so much.

Before leaving, he kicked Skinny Monkey, asking him and the others to catch up quickly.

The group walked forward like this.
