He hid himself among the hundreds of people and blended in completely.

Wanwan transmitted her voice, "Little Bamboo, will they definitely come?"

"One million taels of gold! The Longmen Escort Agency isn't a major power. These bandits wouldn't refuse something that seems to have extremely low risk and huge profits."

Lin Zhu was very certain.

His gaze shifted to the bodyguard walking beside Tong Boda.

The bodyguard carried a gun on his back. Compared to two years ago, his appearance had begun to deteriorate, and he had taken on a weathered look.

However, his strength has improved very quickly, and he has actually reached the eighth level of the Innate Realm.

There must have been some extraordinary encounter, otherwise there wouldn't have been such a big change.

Tong Boda clearly valued Wen Liangong highly, and whispered something to him.

The group quickly left the Hanzhong area and arrived at a relatively flat mountain path at night, which was rather secluded.

Tong Boda raised his hand to stop the group from continuing and said, "Open the boxes and inspect the goods."

The group of bodyguards stopped and opened the chests filled with gold.

Looking at the golden expanse inside, it was hard for them not to be tempted.

Knowing his own limitations, he dared not have any improper thoughts.

Tong Boda was capable of being the chief镖头 (chief镖头, a term referring to a bodyguard or镖师, a kind of bodyguard/escort), and his martial arts skills were also quite good.

With the added strength of a grandmaster, a single palm strike could shatter a stone, let alone a human head.

"Reporting to the chief镖头 (chief镖头 is a person's name), the amount of ten thousand taels of gold is exactly as stated."

"Reporting to the chief镖头 (chief镖头 is a person's name), the amount of ten thousand taels of gold is exactly as stated."

The sound consisted of ninety-eight sentences.

That is, there are 980,000 taels of gold, two of which are in Longmen Escort Agency.

In the distance, in the woods, a group of people were watching what was happening below.

A person with extraordinary hearing heard the reply and whispered, "It's a total of 980,000 taels of gold."

"Ninety-eight thousand taels, isn't it three hundred thousand taels?"

The other person was very surprised, "Is there a trick involved in having the Longmen Escort Agency escort so much gold?"

"Removing the question mark suggests there's something fishy going on. We can't handle this batch of gold on our own; we need to find someone to cooperate with."

"The twelve constellations, and the four great bandits."

"What? Go to them? Does that mean we'll get nothing?"

"What's there to be afraid of? Neither of these groups is simple. One side is full of experts, and the other side has a formidable presence. They will definitely fight to the death for that million taels of gold. Let's wait quietly and reap the benefits."

"Second-in-command is wise, let's do it this way."

After the group left, they left behind some henchmen to keep watch.

Lin Zhu overheard all of these conversations.

Snakes have their paths, rats have their ways; with these bandits' notices, whether it's the Four Great Bandits or the Twelve Zodiac Signs, they should all come.

After all, he hadn't explicitly intended to deal with them.

And so, after leaving Hanzhong and reaching northern Sichuan, the roads became treacherous.

The saying "The road to Shu is harder than ascending to heaven" is not an exaggeration by Li Bai.

More than half a month had passed by then.

On a distant hilltop, twenty-one men were escorting bandits who had been sent to inform them of the situation. One of them asked, "Is this the silver shipment you've been keeping an eye on?"

"Gentlemen, to be precise, it's called 'Gold Dart,' it's all gold inside."

The leader smiled ingratiatingly, looking at a thin, middle-aged man dressed in emerald green, feeling a chill run down his spine, fearing he might be poisoned to death at any moment.

This is the Azure Serpent God of the Twelve Constellations, the most cunning and the most skilled in using poison. Even if a Grandmaster-level expert is given the opportunity to poison him, he is confident that he can take him down.

"Look, they need to verify the funds."

The leader quickly reminded him.

In the past few days, Lin Zhu and his group have encountered attacks on their journey from Hanzhong to northern Sichuan, but they have all been repelled by Wen Liangong alone.

With his fiery spear, he burned the bandits until they cried out in agony.

At this point, they opened the box again to verify, and then counted the items one by one; the numbers were all correct.

Looking at the situation, the Jade Serpent God said, "Something feels off. They seem to be deliberately attracting someone here. There must be a trap."

"Then what should we do?" The speaker was a simple-minded, burly man, who appeared honest but was actually incredibly cunning.

"We need to find a powerful one to test them out," the Azure Serpent God thought for a moment. "We don't need to take action ourselves. The Four Great Bandits are leading their elite troops on their way. Let them try first. If they succeed, we'll ambush them from behind."

"Okay, let's do it this way."

The twelve ministers agreed to the plan.

The Fruit Offering God looked at the group of bandits and the chief they were escorting and asked, "What about this guy?"

"Isn't that easy?"

The scalper slapped him down, giving him a quick and satisfying blow.

Before these henchmen could even speak, they felt a tightness in their chests, then coughed up a mouthful of black blood and died from poisoning.

As if he had done nothing, the Jade Serpent God clapped his hands and said, "Three Chicken Tail Envoys, you are quick. Pass on some messages to the Four Great Bandits, lest they lose their way because of the treacherous Shu Road."

The rooster crows, one person for the rooster comb, one person for the rooster breast, and three people for the rooster tail.

Among them, the lightness skill of the three chicken tail envoys is unparalleled.

Within the escort team, Lin Zhu overheard everything, as if from a god-like perspective, and transmitted his voice to Wanwan: 'They're coming soon.'

"When?" Wanwan's eyes lit up, feeling that she could finally be free.

At first, she was very curious about escorting goods, but after a while, she started to feel uncomfortable.

Fortunately, there are chat groups to pass the time, where I can chat and joke around with other members.

People in the group know what those two guys are doing right now.

Lian Ni Chang: If I didn't know your plan, I would also have thought about robbing this wave of gold.

Wu Xingyun: If you need money, Grandma will give it to you!

Lian Ni Chang: Thank you, Grandma, but I still want to do it myself and be self-sufficient.

Liu Ruoxin: Did you do it yourself? You're clearly stealing other people's money to enrich yourself.

Lian Ni Chang: Liu Ruoxin, is it that every time I appear you come looking for trouble? Dare to go to Lingjiu Palace? I want to challenge you to a duel.

Liu Ruoxin: I'm not afraid of you. I'll go, but don't call any helpers.

Since receiving guidance from Huang Shang, her martial arts skills have improved day by day, and she is on track to become a Grandmaster.

As for Lian Ni Chang, she was still at the Grandmaster level, so she wasn't afraid of her.

Wu Xingyun: Come on, let's set a time, and I, your grandma, will be the referee.

Li Qiushui: Let's do it during the Chinese New Year. Xiaozhu will be there too; he probably loves watching girls fight.

Lin Zhu: Slander! She's slandering me! When did I ever say I liked watching girls fight?

Li Qiushui: Wasn't it you who orchestrated the duel between Wanwan and Shi Feixuan? Although the two of them didn't actually end up fighting.

Chapter 344 Lian Ni Chang Goes Berserk

Li Qiushui was bored lately and kept going through the chat history, which she found completely.

Faced with irrefutable evidence, Lin Zhu had no way to refute it.

When girls fight, they often lose all sense of strategy when the fight gets intense.

He didn't want to pull hair, tear clothes, or even use the Nine Yin White Bone Claw; he just wanted to embarrass the other person.

Wanwan: Little Bamboo, why are you speechless? Are you feeling guilty?

Lin Zhu: If you're upright, you have nothing to fear. I've never said I like watching girls fight.

Li Qiushui: You didn't say you didn't like watching girls fight, it's okay, Grandma likes watching girls fight too.

Wu Xingyun: What do you call yourself? Say it again?

Li Qiushui: Grandma, Grandma, is that alright? My senior sister is so stingy, it's just a title.

Wu Xingyun: Be more careful in the future. @Li Qiushui

Li Qiushui: Okay, I know, you're my grandma, you're my grandma, you're my grandma. Say it three times, is that enough?

Li Canghai: We've gone off on a tangent again. When are you guys coming to Lingjiu Palace? @Lian Nishang @Liu Ruoxin, I don't know if Xiaozhuzi likes watching, but I do!

Lian Ni Chang: We felt like two monkeys, performing for them. @Liu Ruoxin

Liu Ruoxin: If you want to be a monkey, you can be one. I'm not a monkey.

Lian Ni Chang: You female eunuch, can't you understand good and bad words?

Liu Ruoxin: What? Say that again!

Lian Ni Chang: Say it again, fine. Female eunuch, what's wrong?

Liu Ruoxin: I'll kill you!

Lian Ni Chang: You can't hit me, you just can't hit me, so what? The West Depot is full of eunuchs, so if you're in the West Depot, aren't you just a female eunuch?

Mu Wanqing: I think you're courting death!

Lian Ni Chang: Oh, I forgot, there's one more here.

At this moment, Wanwan, who was in the group, couldn't help but laugh. The female eunuch, Liu Ruoxin, and Mu Wanqing were absolutely furious.

Is Lian Ni Chang really that mischievous?

Mu Wanqing: I'm going to kill you!
