Chapter 185 Get ready and set off
It was late at night, everything was silent, only the faint chirping of insects echoed in the darkness.
Although it is already past two in the morning, the temperature at night has not dropped much. On the contrary, the humidity in the air makes people feel stuffy and unbearable.
Lan Yaoxia and Li Jinxi had almost finished their rest when they heard a noise outside.
I walked out of the tent slowly. There were several powerful beams of light shining on the ground outside the tent.
Just then, a figure quickly walked in front of them. It was Ma Xuan.
He looked angry, with obvious displeasure on his face.
"I really don't know what the woman from the Pei family is up to. She actually chose to come to negotiate in the middle of the night!"
Ma Xuan complained in a low voice, his tone full of dissatisfaction.
Lan Yaoxia was also very surprised after hearing what Ma Xuan said.
He frowned and asked in confusion: "We still need to negotiate so late? This is not a good idea..."
Ma Xuan nodded, a look of helplessness on his face, and said, "Yes, Pei Shan just sent someone over to tell you to set off at three o'clock."
Lan Yaoxia felt a little anxious, as it was only twenty minutes before three o'clock in the morning.
Ma Xuan paused and continued, "And she also emphasized that she would wait for you in the village."
"And we are only allowed to send ten people to protect you."
After saying that, he glanced at Li Jinxi and Lan Yaoxia, as if observing their reactions.
When Li Jinxi heard this, his face instantly turned gloomy. He frowned and retorted unhappily: "How can this be possible!"
There was obvious dissatisfaction and worry in his voice.
The other party is probably a group of people who don't care about their lives. How can we guarantee their safety if we only take these few people with us?
Ma Xuan also felt that this arrangement was very inappropriate. What if something went wrong with Lan Yaoxia along the way, how would he explain to the old man?
He couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
Lan Yaoxia was silent for a moment, then asked, "How many people are there on the other side?"
Ma Xuan thought about it and answered uncertainly: "About thirty."
His tone revealed his doubts about the number.
After observing the village for such a long time, I found that some of the people on the other side never left their homes, so it was difficult to judge the actual number of people.
Hearing that the other party had so few people, Li Jinxi laughed disdainfully and said, "Only those thirty or so people?"
"We have a large group of soldiers here. Can't we capture that small, broken village?"
Li Jinxi's words were full of confidence and contempt.
Thirty or so people can actually threaten three thousand soldiers?
It’s simply a fantasy.
After hearing this, Ma Xuan felt annoyed.
He thought to himself, if he didn't want to capture Gu Yannian alive, he would have led his troops to attack directly. Why should he suffer this humiliation here?
After thinking for a moment, Lan Yaoxia was unwilling to stand under the dangerous wall.
Moreover, it is impossible to just listen to the other party.
He said to Ma Xuan: "I have brought a hundred bodyguards with me. Take a hundred sets of equipment from the army and have them all put them on and come with me."
"The bodyguards I brought with me are all retired military personnel. Their adaptability is only strong, not weak."
Ma Xuan looked at Lan Yaoxia. After all, this was the idea of his eldest master. Although he was a little worried, he still nodded in agreement.
After all, Lan Yaoxia is the new generation leader of the Lan family, and he must obey Lan Yaoxia's orders.
Thinking of this, Ma Xuan replied: "I understand, Master."
"I'll make arrangements now and make sure everything is ready."
"Don't worry, even if it costs me my life, I will never let you make any mistakes."
After saying that, Ma Xuan immediately turned around and left, and began to arrange equipment and bodyguards.
Lan Yaoxia stood there quietly, thinking about her next move.
He knew clearly in his heart that the enemy he was facing this time was not an ordinary opponent, but a group of people who were almost as bad as desperate criminals.
Therefore, you must be adequately prepared and take adequate protective measures to ensure your own safety.
Even if Gu Yannian is in their hands now, they can't manipulate him easily.
Ten minutes later, when everything was ready, just as Lan Yaoxia was about to leave, Li Jinxi suddenly insisted on going with them.
He also said stubbornly that he must go with Lan Yaoxia and not let him take the risk alone.
However, Lan Yaoxia was not swayed by Li Jinxi's request.
With a stern face, he scolded in a stern tone: "Stop messing around!"
His eyes were firm and resolute, leaving no room for doubt.
Looking at Li Jinxi who was frightened by him, he had no intention of comforting her.
"Just wait for me!"
These words seemed to carry an irresistible force that made Li Jinxi feel afraid.
Seeing the anger on Lan Yaoxia's face, Li Jinxi began to back down.
He originally wanted to stick to his own opinion, but at this moment he felt Lan Yaoxia's determination and majesty.
In the end, they chose to obey, standing there silently, watching the vehicles leaving the camp one after another.
Looking at the vehicles going away, Li Jinxi was filled with confusion.
But at the same time, I started to think of other plans in my heart...
In the dilapidated village——
At this time, Pei Shan was sitting on a chair in his room, crossing his legs and staring at the woman in front of him with cold eyes.
Her voice was cold and majestic, which made people shudder.
"Zhan Hui, did you understand what I said?"
Pei Shan's tone revealed an attitude that could not be questioned.
Zhan Hui stood in front of Pei Shan, head lowered, hands nervously intertwined.
She nodded slightly, indicating that she understood Pei Shan's request.
However, although Zhan Hui looks submissive, her heart is full of contradictions and insecurities.
She knew that the task she was about to face was not easy, but she could not refuse Pei Shan's order.
At the same time, due to the unusually hot weather, Pei Shan kept the air conditioner on in her room to try to keep the room cool.
In order to cool down better, the air conditioner was also adjusted to the lowest temperature, only 16 degrees.
The whole room was filled with a cool atmosphere, in stark contrast to the scorching hot weather outside.
In this environment, people's mood seems to become increasingly heavy.
Pei Shan sat there quietly, with determination and resoluteness flashing in her eyes.
She was determined to complete her plan, no matter what the cost.
This dilapidated village seemed to be shrouded in a shadow, and Pei Shan's room became the core of this conspiracy.
As time goes by, the story will gradually unfold and reveal more secrets...
Zhan Hui looked at the sexy lingerie and a large bag of aphrodisiacs in her hands and fell into deep thought.
