Chapter 540: Chapter 146 Digging Pits All the Way [Two in One]_3 Chapter 540: Chapter 146 Digging Pits All the Way [Two in One]_3 Nothing was said that night.

We resumed the journey early in the morning.

With the morning wind blowing against us, we walked on the morning dew.

You were riding in the carriage, while I was on horseback.

Welcoming the sunrise and bidding the sunset farewell.

We rode smooth paths leading to the Great Dao.

After many phases, we set off again.

Feng Yin was in a fairly good mood.

There was a sense of ‘going sightseeing with a little girl’, which stirred up some unusual thoughts in him.

But considering this girl’s… rather large appetite, Feng Yin wondered what kind of financial circumstances would be needed to support her?

Average households certainly can’t, a meal like that could consume a year’s worth of food for a family. How could anyone endure that?

If Dong Xiaoyan knew what Feng Yin was thinking, she would be absolutely furious.

Thinking that even in a year, she might not eat such a large meal, how dare he say she has a big appetite?

Still, Dong Xiaoyan felt a bit embarrassed, mainly because her wolf-like eating habits were seen by others, making the young woman a bit shy.

So, she didn’t talk much with Feng Yin.

It was a bit awkward.

Then all of a sudden, it wasn’t awkward anymore.

Because trouble was coming.

“This road belongs to me…”

A group of people suddenly jumped out.

Miss Dong wasn’t embarrassed anymore.

Drawing her sword, she charged forward with a fury.

“Thieves! Dare to rob me!”

…

Feng Yin felt quite aggrieved.

This sense of comfort was quickly lost.

Because he was digging a pit.

It was already the thirteenth pit he had dug since they set off that day.

Yes, they had encountered thirteen waves of robbers even though it wasn’t noon yet.

Thirteen waves of robbers were defeated by Miss Dong’s sword.

He finished digging the hole in three seconds, tossed the bodies in, covered them up in two seconds, and then they were on the move again.

One taking lives, one hiding the evidence, their cooperation was seamless.

Miss Dong’s carriage, once again, was filled with more valuable goods.

It was already piled high, and now it was even higher.

Sometimes, even Feng Yin was surprised: are these bandits and part-time robbers all brain-dead?

It is evident that the goods on the cart are valuable.

Would they have travelled slowly, with only two of them, if they were not confident?

As robbers, shouldn’t they assess their victims’ strengths? If their victims are strong, won’t they just end up losing their lives?

This is common sense yet these guys are rushing forward one after another.

Killing them wave after wave.

Why is this happening?

This is the reality of being unfamiliar with the trade.

Feng Yin might think these people are stupid, but how many truly stupid people are there in this world?

The bandits and the part-time robbers have thought about the situation.

They of course realized the extraordinary value of these goods, and in fact, after careful consideration, several dozen waves of people had given up.

But those still willing to risk their lives had their reasons.

One reason was the high value of this loot. If they could get it, they could retire for the rest of their lives by casually selling the goods.

So, the attraction of wealth is undeniable.

Another reason was that the character had passed through numerous bandits, and although they seemed fine, they were not made of iron. They must have suffered some hidden injuries and maybe they could take advantage of that?

Another reason was that others failing didn’t mean they would. They were respectable bandits in this region after all.

Another reason was that those two weren’t dressed in sect attire. Killing them won’t antagonize any big sect. So, there wasn’t much to fear in the aftermath.

Another reason was the location, it was desolate and no village or shop was in sight. A robbery could be performed stealthily, and they could make a quick escape.

The final reason was that both of them were so young, a little girl and a young man. How strong could they be at this age?

Do they think the whole world is full of Dong Xiaoyans?

How could there be so many geniuses?

Another reason: if I don’t rob them, others will. If others were successful in doing so, wouldn’t I regret not taking the chance?

With these seven reasons, there really wasn’t… a reason not to do it.

Of course, most of the truly smart ones had quietly withdrawn.

Those who hadn’t retreated and charged forward were now in pits dug by Feng Yin.

And as they continued on their journey, they were likely to dig more pits.

So, Physician Feng was starting to feel a bit uncomfortable.

Because it was always Dong Xiaoyan who took action, he didn’t have a chance to, and now, he felt like a professional gravedigger.

Moreover, this job seemed endless and looked like it would continue for a long time.

However, there was no salary or bonus.

“I was thinking…”

After burying this group of people and meticulously cleaning the blood stains off the road, an unsatisfied Physician Feng said: “Actually, we can speed up.”

Dong Xiaoyan was also furious: “You think I don’t want to move faster? But if we move faster, how can we lure these guys out and kill them all?”

Feng Yin was stunned: “So, you don’t intend to go faster at all. You are deliberately fishing?”

“But I didn’t expect it to take this long!”

A rather twisted look appeared on Dong Xiaoyan’s pretty face: “When I stood high and looked down earlier, I saw countless resentful spirits on this road. Well, they exist. However, I did not expect there to be even more than what I saw.”
