I feel so good after dressing up as a peasant girl

Chapter 142: Medicinal Herbs Perform a Great Service

After eating and drinking, everyone found a flat wasteland that was dry and hidden, with few flowers and plants, and spread straw mats on the ground to sleep.

Bai Jingzhou sprinkled medicine powder around to prevent snakes, insects, rats and ants from crawling over while they were resting.

Having slept from the moment the sun set until the late night, Gu Wenxuan opened her eyes full of energy.

Bai Jingzhou heard the noise and climbed up as well.

Gu Wenxuan whispered, "I'll go up the mountain to check it out. You guys wait here for my news."

Bai Jingzhou shook his head, "I'll go with you. Don't worry, I'll hide in the dark and won't hold you back."

Gu Wenxuan was about to nod when Bai Jingshan and others woke up one after another. They got up and said that they wanted to go too.

Gu Wenxuan:......

No, she was just going to explore the route, not to go straight in without saying anything.

Seeing her confused face, Bai Jingzhou couldn't help but chuckle. He said, "Forget it, since everyone wants to go, let's go together."

After a pause, Bai Jingzhou continued, "If you are really worried, then you should lead the way and we will follow."

Gu Wenxuan thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then you guys should keep a safe distance from me."

The two brothers Fang Youfu and Fang Youcai stepped forward and said, "Wenxuan, we want to follow you."

They were the only two adults in the group, and they let a little girl like Gu Wenxuan charge ahead alone. Even though the two brothers knew that she was much stronger than themselves, they still couldn't get over the hurdle in their hearts.

Seeing their firm attitude, Gu Wenxuan had to take a step back and make other arrangements for the two of them, "Then you follow behind me, so that I can protect you in time when encountering an emergency."

She had long since accepted the cruel fact that "there will inevitably be casualties in a life-and-death fight" and had witnessed the death of her companions countless times. But now was obviously not the time for Fang Youfu and others to risk their lives to do something.

It was just a matter of wiping out a gang of about sixty bandits. If there couldn't be zero casualties, this operation would be a complete failure for Gu Wenxuan.

The Fang Youfu brothers knew that this was already a huge concession made by Gu Wenxuan, so they nodded in agreement.

The two thought that it would be better to stay with Gu Wenxuan, so that if she encountered any danger, they would be able to help her in the first time.

At the very least, their big bodies could at least help Gu Wenxuan block arrows and knives at the critical moment.

The conversation between the three people came to a conclusion, and Bai Jingzhou asked everyone to pack up.

They placed all the things they didn't need to bring, such as straw mats, on the branches of the big trees here, as they would be going back home from here anyway.

As for other items such as weapons, medicines, etc., everyone took their own share.

Under the cool light of the stars and the moon, everyone followed Gu Wenxuan and climbed all the way to the halfway point of the mountain, then circled along the halfway point to the other side of the mountain.

I don’t know if it’s because there has been peace for too long, but there is no one on the sentry tower in the bandit camp.

Gu Wenxuan observed for a while and found that these guys were indeed not standing guard properly, so he felt confident and sneaked into the bandit camp.

The gate of the bandit camp was tall and thick, but a gate of this height could not stop Gu Wenxuan, who was better at climbing trees than a monkey.

She quietly climbed into the bandit camp, sneaked into the guardhouse like a ghost, and killed two bandits who should have been standing guard but were drunk and careless and were sleeping soundly on the wooden floor.

After killing the people, she ran down and opened the gate of the bandit camp.

The heavy gate of the bandit camp would have required at least five or six people to open and close it together, but Gu Wenxuan opened it easily with just one hand.

Bai Jingzhou and the others tiptoed in, and then Gu Wenxuan deliberately left a crack in the door. She whispered to everyone, "If I tell you to run, you will run this way immediately. Remember?"

Everyone nodded.

Gu Wenxuan then took Fang Youfu and Fang Youcai and slowly moved towards the core area of ​​the village.

About a hundred meters behind them were Bai Jingzhou, Bai Jingshan, Ning Qirui and Jia Yuelan.

Bai Jingzhou and Jia Yuelan each had a bow and arrow, while Bai Jingshan and Ning Qirui, one holding a wooden stick and the other holding a hatchet, guarded Bai Jingzhou and Jia Yuelan.

The time when they entered the village was when everyone in the village fell into a deep sleep. In addition, in order to avoid any unexpected situations, Bai Jingzhou also prepared something like smoke for Gu Wenxuan in advance.

Gu Wenxuan only had to hold her breath and light the small herbal sticks as thick as her little finger that Bai Jingzhou had prepared for her, and then throw them one by one into the rooms where snoring and breathing sounds were coming from, and the people inside would unconsciously fall into coma from a deep sleep.

In this way, the difficulty of eliminating the bandits would drop sharply immediately.

After Gu Wenxuan brought the Fang brothers and threw a burning stick made of herbs into all the occupied houses, Bai Jingzhou slowly led the others to meet Gu Wenxuan and the other two.

He got several bundles of straw ropes from somewhere and handed them to the Fang brothers. Bai Jingzhou whispered, "Now you can tie them up."

The Fang brothers nodded to show that they understood.

Bai Jingzhou reminded him again, "Remember to stay alert at all times."

The Fang brothers nodded again. Gu Wenxuan had told them before that some enemies would pretend to be dead, fainted, or injured, and then suddenly launch a sneak attack. They had already remembered this firmly in their minds and would not fail at such a critical moment.

Seeing this, Bai Jingshan, Ning Qirui and Jia Yuelan all came up to Bai Jingzhou and asked him for the remaining straw ropes.

They also have to tie up people, so they can help.

Bai Jingzhou smiled and gave them a bundle of straw ropes. "You three should act together. Jingshan and Qirui will be responsible for tying up the people. Yuelan, don't go into the house first."

Jia Yuelan is a genuine girl, unlike Gu Wenxuan. As careful as Bai Jingzhou is, he doesn't want her to see anything she shouldn't see and be left with psychological trauma, otherwise he and Gu Wenxuan will be guilty of a serious crime.

Although the three of them didn't know what Bai Jingzhou was worried about, they all agreed obediently. So Bai Jingshan and Ning Qirui took ropes, sticks, and hatchets into the house to tie up the people, while Jia Yuelan stood guard at the door, responsible for helping the two to be alert to the surroundings and prevent unexpected situations.

Gu Wenxuan glanced at Bai Jingzhou and said, "You go to your cousin's group. I'll go find out where the warehouse of this bandit's den is hidden."

There must be bandits guarding that place, but they are just a few of them, so Gu Wenxuan can handle them.
