Chapter Eighty-Three
There was a storm outside the house, and the bonfire inside the house was crackling, and the atmosphere was a bit subtle.
Liu Xiu rubbed the garden and flattened it like a gold coin. The bearded man suddenly felt that it was fake and thought that Liu Xiu was a fraudulent liar. He had talked about Shenghuan before. Now he looked contemptuous and didn't need to be dealt with. His straightforward personality made people speechless.
He put his shoes wet by the rain on the bonfire and grilled them, sniffing his feet carelessly, and even smelled them, with a smelly expression on his face, not caring about other people's feelings at all...
The thin man's eyes flashed after seeing Liu Xiu's gold coins. However, when he saw Liu Xiu's action of pinching gold coins, his eyebrows trembled and calmed down and did not look again.
As for the woman, after seeing the gold coins, she first glared at her eyes and then saw that the gold coins were pinched into various forms by Liu Xiu and became suspicious.
No one spoke, because the gold coins appeared and the few people became silent, and they didn't know what they were thinking.
Liu Xiu was full of melancholy, and it seemed that he was not that easy to fool.
He saw everyone's condition. The bearded man looked disgusted and seemed to believe that the gold coins were fake, so he cheated him on the spot. But who can guarantee that he was not the one who acted?
Liu Xiu noticed the greed in the thin man's eyes. He must have recognized that the gold coins were actually real, but when he saw himself kneading the gold coins at will, he was unmoved. He seemed to be afraid, but God knew what he was thinking in his heart.
Among the three people, what Liu Xiu couldn't understand the most was the weak woman. Her performance was too ordinary. She was frightened and worried when she saw the bearded man and was skeptical after seeing the gold coins. There was nothing wrong with these, but it seemed abnormal because it was too normal!
The most important thing is that she is a weak woman, and it is the most wrong to travel alone. She said she went to Sifang Town to find her husband. Don’t she know the way? She has to come here in the evening?
Liu Xiu didn't remember who said that it was the most dangerous for women, children and elderly people to go out, because you must have something to rely on when you dare to travel alone.
So, among these people, the most abnormal one is the weak woman.
"Are you all exercising acting skills..."
Liu Xiu was thinking, but, what kind of person they were had nothing to do with Liu Xiu, and he would not pay attention to him as long as he did not show any malice to him.
Liu Xiu still understood the truth that wealth was not revealed. Since they had been exposed "accidentally", although they were very calm, they still had the vigilance they should have in their hearts.
He doesn't think that his physique is not human, so he can really do whatever he wants. It is said that it is easy to avoid hidden arrows and it is difficult to prevent them. What if he is playing with the secret, he can really defend himself?
The money is touching. Some people directly cause murder and robbing money is actually the most unsafe way. That will only put yourself in a life-and-death situation. A smarter person will play tricks, assassinate and poison, and ensure your own safety while also getting the wealth you want.
However, the truly clever way of making money is actually to cheat. Not only do you cheat money, but the person who is cheated will help you count money. That is the real cleverness!
As a person who has been rolling in the shopping mall, Liu Xiu has seen too many tricks behind his back. If he really thinks that others are just the kind of reckless man who chops around with a knife, he will be the biggest fool.
There are many smart people in the world.
The bearded man really kicked his backpack "accidentally" down? After all, although thousands of gold coins are not very heavy, they are pressed on the ground of the backpack, and it is really not easy to kick it "accidentally"!
Butcher, weak woman, scholar...
Thoughts flashed, Liu Xiu felt that it was becoming more and more interesting. This was the real experience of life. He was not interested in the scene of chopping around with a knife.
A reckless man plays with force, while a wise man plays with strategy. To put it bluntly, strength is not the biggest reliance of a person. There is no invincible person in the world. If you really rely on your own strength and feel that you can do whatever you want, then that person will not be far from death, and you will die miserably!
"What are you doing in a mess? I feel so uncomfortable. Also, aren't you hungry? Are you there anything you have to eat? I'm hungry, I'm hungry, please share it, don't worry, spend money on it."
While everyone was silent, the bearded man spoke in a muffled voice. When he spoke, he mainly looked at the thin man and the woman, but he still didn't like Liu Xiu.
I took out a copper plate and slapped it on the ground, really wanting to buy something to eat.
Liu Xiuxin said that she couldn't help but start? While she was alert, she also wanted to see what tricks they could play. It doesn't matter whether they were rich or not. He really wanted to know who they were and what methods they had.
As for five thousand gold, in a world where food is only one or two copper coins per pound, this is really a huge sum of money, which is enough to make people take risks!
"I...I didn't have anything to eat. I originally wanted to meet up with my husband before eating..." The woman there said that she was frightened when she heard the bearded man's words, as if she was afraid that the bearded man would get angry and cause trouble for her.
While the thin man looked nervous, he showed the selflessness of being a scholar at this time. He hesitated for a moment and said, "I have some dry food here. If you don't dislike it..."
"What are you talking about? What can I eat? Take it out and take a look, are you afraid you will lose your money?" The bearded man interrupted the thin man arrogantly.
Cancan smiled, the man went to flip through his backpack, then took out a small package, and after opening it, it showed more than a dozen white steamed buns. He looked at the bearded man with a little fear and said, "Only...this is the only one"
"Merry buns, I thought there was meat. No, can you buy ten steamed buns for twenty copper coins? I have a lot of appetite." The bearded man curled his lips after seeing this, and pulled out twenty copper coins and pushed them over and said.
"Enough is enough" the man put away the copper plate and handed over ten steamed buns with a forced look on his face, and fully demonstrated his attitude of not wanting to collect money but afraid that the bearded man would get angry.
The bearded man took the steamed bun and hugged it in his arms. He grabbed one with his big hand that had been picking his feet before. He then disappeared into his mouth after taking a bite of it. The open-minded and heroic people really couldn't pretend. After all, how many people dared to just talk directly from strangers, especially in this wilderness?
The woman over there saw that her bearded man was squeezing her lips and sucked her mouth sweetly. She subconsciously swallowed her saliva, and her stomach started to growl.
The thin man looked at some of the remaining steamed buns, hesitated for a moment, picked up one and handed it to Liu Xiu and the woman and said, "It's not easy to go out. Meeting is fate. If you don't dislike it, you can also use one to cushion your belly?"
"This... isn't it?" the woman hesitated, looking embarrassed to eat.
The man smiled and said, "It's just a steamed bun, what's so sorry?"
"Thank you then." The woman smiled and took it, tearing open the small mouthful little by little and lowered her head to eat.
Then, the man looked at Liu Xiu, and did not take back the hand that handed the steamed bun, and asked, "Brother, you have one too?"
"Don't give it to him, he's just a liar." The bearded man suddenly glared, as if he really believed that Liu Xiu's gold coins were fake and regarded it as a liar.
The man smiled awkwardly and said, "The little brother looked kind-hearted at first sight. How could he be a liar? Besides, he admitted that the gold coins were fake, and he didn't mean to reveal them on purpose, nor did he lie to us."
The bearded man snorted coldly, as if he was saying that if you like being deceived, go, don't say that I didn't remind you.
Liu Xiu smiled "embarrassingly" there and said, "Misunderstandings are all misunderstandings. They just happened to be hungry. Since that's the case, how can I let my brother down?"
As he said that, Liu Xiu took the steamed bun and thought to himself that this thing would not be poisonous, right? Maybe.
You must eat it, but you have to pay attention to how to ensure your safety. After all, it is something given by strangers. Liu Xiu doesn't think that if someone poisons him, he can see it. If he is really such a clumsy ability to poison, he doesn't have to embarrass him.
It cannot be said that Liu Xiu judges a gentleman by his villain's heart. He will never make mistakes when he is careful when he is away.
Without eating steamed buns as soon as possible, Liu Xiu put the steamed buns on the side of the fire to roast them.
A hint of anger flashed across the man's face. A normal person was suspected of that kind, and seemed to say casually: "Brother, do you have any particularity?"
"No, I just think it's better to eat when the roast is hot. I'm not afraid of you laughing at me. My stomach is not good, and eating cold things can easily cause diarrhea. Moreover, this steamed bun is burnt and it feels different to eat it," Liu Xiu said with a smile.
The man looked like this and also imitated Liu Xiu’s roasted steamed buns.
The bearded man over there had already swallowed five steamed buns. Seeing their actions, he snorted coldly and muttered: "I'm so cute when I go out. If you have the ability, don't go far..."
Liu Xiu and the man looked at each other and smiled, but did not respond. Both parties understood the meaning of "can't provoke a big beard."
At this moment, the bearded man over there glared and his face changed and said in a deep voice: "Not good!"
As soon as these two words came out, Liu Xiu and others subconsciously looked at him. The woman forgot to eat steamed buns. The thin young man's eyes flashed, and Liu Xiu was calm and curious.
The bearded man rolled his eyes, got up, covered his stomach, walked towards the door and said, "What are you looking at? I'm just feeling uncomfortable." As he said that, he had already walked out of the door. After a while, a sensational sound and a comfortable sound of the bearded man came from the wind and rain.
A trace of playful thought flashed across Liu Xiu's face.
Who is this big bearded man? He took advantage of the excuse of having a stomachache and went to greet his men! Liu Xiu, who had a keen senses, had already felt that more than a dozen people were approaching around the temple!
Could he be the leader of the bandit who ran away?
Very likely.
The reason for this judgment was that Liu Xiu thought of a conversation with the old coachman on the road from Qingliu Town to Linjiangcheng. The old coachman said that most of the so-called bandits are ordinary people who cannot survive for various reasons.
Who said that the leader of a bandit must be a warrior? People with abilities will still engage in the profession of a bandit, which has no future?
Of course, this is just Liu Xiu’s current guess, and he will not be true until the end.
The bearded man once said, would a bad person write a bad person on his face? But he showed the bad person's posture and revealed kindness, which made people really difficult to judge.
"Hey, if he is really the leader of the bandit, are they so smart? He almost believed the play, but then again, if he doesn't have a clue, how could he escape from the encirclement of the Iron Armored Army Reserve? But since he has such a mind, why should he still risk the exposure and rush his subordinates to take action? Is it because of the temptation of thousands of gold that he can't help it? Or is it that he thinks that he can only rely on more than a dozen subordinates to be able to control himself?"
The key is whether he is the leader of a bandit?
They are all drama masters, which makes people really hard to judge.
