"No! Not me!"

The old man was so scared that he waved his hand while retreating!

However, he was so scared that his legs trembled, he staggered backwards, and squatted on the ground!

The other villagers actually avoided them, not even a person who came forward to help him up, as if they were worried about being implicated!

"Hahaha......"

Seeing this scene, the second shopkeeper smiled more proudly and arrogantly!

Lin Xu saw it and couldn't help but sigh softly.

It is easy to break the thieves in the mountains, but it is difficult to break the thieves in the city!

As for destroying the thief in your heart, it will be even more difficult!

If he only wiped out these bandits on Xiaoyang Mountain, his current strength would be enough. However, he still has a long way to go to eliminate the villagers' fear of bandits!

"Second shopkeeper, I'm willing to increase the money for the case."

Lin Xu looked at the second shopkeeper waving the scimitar and laughed like a fool. He was worried that he would be excited and would really kill a few villagers, so he responded directly.

"Haha, you guy is pretty good!"

The second shopkeeper laughed proudly: "Then send the money here quickly. Second Master, I don't have the patience to wait for more!"

Lin Xu took out a hundred taels of silver notes and handed them to the second shopkeeper.

After the second shopkeeper confirmed, he pointed at Lin Xu with a knife and said, "From the beginning of every month, I will send 200 taels of silver to the mountain! And, I want you to go in person! Do you understand?"

"I understand."

Lin Xu said with a smile.

"Just understand!"

The second shopkeeper turned his head, raised his head and said, "Let's go, go back to the mountain!"

"Brother Chong, bring a few people to follow me and let them out of the village!"

Lin Xu whispered.

"clear!"

Sun Chong agreed and followed Xia Dahai and a few brothers quietly.

After everyone left, the old village chief followed Lin Xu home.

"Xiaoxu, when will we do it?"

The old village chief could not bear these bandits anymore and asked impatiently.

“I’ve been doing it recently.”

Originally, Lin Xu actually wanted to let the soldiers practice their physical fitness after a while and run in the military formation. Because the better their physical fitness and the more tacit the military formation is, the lower the casualties they will be when they wipe out the bandits!

However, the second shopkeeper suddenly came today to ask for an increase in the case money, which forced him to plan in advance!

Because, he keenly felt that the bandits requested to increase the money for the case was just a reason. In fact, on a deeper level, this was a test by the bandits on themselves!

So, without any hesitation, he immediately agreed to the bandit's request!

This is done, on the one hand, to paralyze the bandits, and on the other hand, to lay the foundation for his next plan!

"That's great! We have been bullied by bandits for so many years, and I don't know how many villagers died under the bandit's butcher's knife! Now, the time for revenge has finally come!"

Although the old village chief is already old, he is still very excited to mention the matter of suppressing bandits!

"Uncle II, do you think if the bandits kill us in our village, will there be villagers who will take up weapons to resist?"

"this......"
