As soon as Jin Lan finished speaking, his subordinates were stunned. They looked at each other and said, "Boss, could they have tricked you?"
"No." Jin Lan shook his head. "They still want to keep it a secret, but I've already discovered the truth from the clues!"
"Then what do we do now?" One of his subordinates asked, "Are we still going to run?"
They would definitely not be able to defeat Ren Xiaosu in a fight. So Jin Lan and the others had been secretly discussing along the way. Why not run away while they were sleeping? That way, they could at least regain their freedom.
But Jin Lan had changed his mind. "Run, my ass! I'm not going to run away anymore. I'm going to stay here. If I get a chance to go to Stronghold 178 in the future, I'll be rich!"
The others were also tempted. "But will they let us go?"
"That's why I'm asking y 'all to behave!" Jin Lan said, "Alright, I'll go talk to the newcomers and get them to calm down. This is the first task Boss has given me, so I can't mess it up."
His subordinates were speechless. Alright, their boss already had a new boss, so what else could they say?
Jin Lan came up to the new bandits and said with a smile, "Hello, which hill are you from?"
"We're from the western slope of Daban." The leader of the new bandits said, "Let me tell you, we still have more than 50 brothers at home. Hurry up and let us go. Otherwise, when our brothers get here, y 'all will be in for a treat."
Jin Lan sneered, "Bro, who are you talking to? How dare you say something like that in front of the people from Stronghold 178? If you still have more than 50 brothers at home, do you know how many brothers there are at Stronghold 178? "
The people facing Jin Lan were stunned. What the hell? People from Stronghold 178?
It was no wonder the young man and woman who had just beaten them up were so powerful? He looked at Jin Lan and wondered, "Are y 'all from Stronghold 178?"
Jin Lan paused for a moment. "I'm not yet …"
"Then why are you telling me this?" the bandit snapped.
"But the two masters who beat you up are!" Jin Lan lowered his voice. "Bro, I used to be from the North Slope. Do you know Mushroom Ridge?"
"Wait." The bandit opposite him was stunned for a moment before saying, "You were also captured? I've heard of the twenty or so people at Mushroom Ridge. It's said that they're living a miserable life. "
Jin Lan's expression darkened. "How can you say that? I've already forsaken the darkness for the light. Do you see the gun at my waist? It was given to me by those two bosses! From now on, I'll be your captain. Be smart! "
The bandit whispered, "Are those two really from Stronghold 178? How did you know? "
"Hehe." Jin Lan whispered, "Let me tell you, I discovered this myself, so it can't be faked. Now think again, do you want to go back to your West Slope, or do you want to stay here for a future? "
At this point, the other party was already skeptical. Normal people would not joke about Stronghold 178. Moreover, the powerful strength Ren Xiaosu and Yang Xiaojin had displayed during the battle just now was truly frightening.
Jin Lan whispered, "Did you hear about Master Xu passing by here at the start of winter last year?"
"Yes, yes." The bandit leader's eyes lit up. "Are those two related to Master Xu too?"
"I'm not sure about that." Jin Lan said, "At that time, Master Xu was passing by, and a group of blind bandits tried to rob him. Two of them were crippled by a miraculous method, but the bandits were not convinced. They sent over 50 of them but still failed to subdue him. That flying black cauldron was amazing!"
"I heard about that too. It's true." The bandit leader said, "I heard that Master Xu also has a power that allows him to summon shadows."
"How can a shadow be as powerful as a cauldron?" Jin Lan said excitedly, "I heard that the cauldron is especially powerful. Over 50 people fired their guns at it for half an hour, but they still couldn't break it."
"That's a little exaggerated. I heard that it took them two minutes …."
"Don't dwell on the details." Jin Lan said unhappily, "Those bandits regretted it very much after that. At that time, Master Xu had not made a name for himself yet. If they had promoted him at that time, he would probably be out of trouble by now. Now, the opportunity is right in front of us, so I advise you to stop. "
"The point is, who can be sure that the two of them are from Stronghold 178?" The bandit leader was unconvinced. "The two of them might be a little powerful, but I still don't really believe in their identities."
"Up to you," Jin Lan said bleakly. At this moment, he suddenly felt like he was the only sober person in the world.
But at this moment, Jin Lan saw a shadow flash by in a river. He thought his eyes were playing tricks on him, so he asked the people next to him, "Did y 'all see anything just now?"
"I think there was a shadow that moved very quickly," someone said.
The bandit who had just been captured today chuckled. "I'm afraid that our brothers from back home were worried, so they came to support us!"
"Bullshit." Jin Lan spat. "Are you two that close?"
Some of the bandits hurriedly ran along the river. Jin Lan followed behind them as he was afraid they would run away. However, no one discovered anything. Some of the bandits continued to chase after them unwillingly. After running for less than two minutes, they were surprised to see Ren Xiaosu talking to a shadow. The shadow that seemed to have a physical body handed Ren Xiaosu a letter before running off into the wilderness.
A lot of people were following behind Jin Lan, and they all saw this scene.
"Did y 'all say that Master Xu has another power?" Someone asked in a trembling voice, "I know supernatural beings don't have the same power, right?"
Jin Lan whispered, "Let's go. They must have chosen such a secluded place because they don't want anyone to discover them. If they find out that we saw them, they might just kill us to silence us!"
But before they could leave, they saw Ren Xiaosu raise his head and suddenly notice Jin Lan and the others. His expression darkened, and it seemed like his killing intent was boiling.
Jin Lan immediately knelt on the ground. "Bro, I didn't see anything. Don't kill me, don't kill me!"
All of a sudden, everyone behind Jin Lan knelt down, afraid that Ren Xiaosu would kill them to silence them.
Ren Xiaosu slowly walked up to Jin Lan and the others. After a long silence, he said, "Alright, get up. It's a secret."
Jin Lan and the others were moved to tears. "Thank you, Bro, for not killing us! Thank you, Bro, for not killing us! "
"Gratitude received from Jin Lan, + 1!"
"Gratitude received from …"
With just this wave, Ren Xiaosu received more than a dozen gratitude tokens, bringing his gratitude tokens back to more than 900!
Jin Lan and the others got up and ran back to the settlement. Along the way, Jin Lan asked while panting, "Are we still going to run? Do you believe me now?"
But the new bandit next to him said, "Can you let me go home for a bit?"
Jin Lan was stunned. "You're still going to run?"
"No, I'll go get all my brothers at home. We'll surrender together …."
