Chapter 108: Su Yun’s True Strength? (2)

“And then?” Gang Zi still did not agree or disagree.

“At that time, the bandits on Maple Ridge were the largest group around Hibiscus City. Including other bandits who fled here to cozy up to them after their lairs were breached, it was said that there were more than 3,000 bandits in the entire Maple Ridge. In the end, all of them were blocked on the mountain by the army.”

Skinny Monkey continued vividly, “After the army surrounded them, they began to persuade them to surrender. At that time, the old boss of Maple Ridge, Rascal Wang, had heard too many operas from Water Margin and his brain had water. He felt that he had to learn from the heroes of Liangshan and fight with the official army first to show his might before he could be recruited.”

Gang Zi almost spat out. He puffed up his eyes and looked at Skinny Monkey. “There’s such a stupid person—then what?”

“Then the army attacked.” Skinny Monkey looked at Gang Zi pitifully, as if he was the idiot who went stupid after listening to Water Margin. “Rascal Wang was still waiting for the army to attack his stone stronghold layer by layer. In the end, the army did not delay with him at all. They directly fired ten thousand cannons at once and almost blew up the entire Maple Ridge.” He pointed behind him. “The broken stone houses we’re living in now were destroyed by the army’s cannons.”

“What does this have to do with what you’re talking about?” Gang Zi asked skeptically.

“How is it unrelated? Can anyone survive under the cannons?” Skinny Monkey rolled his eyes at Gang Zi. “After a round of cannon fire by the army, more than 3,000 bandits died completely. All of them were blown to pieces and their flesh was mangled. The next year, there were red leaves all over Maple Ridge. Before that, the maple leaves in Hibiscus City were not red leaves! Therefore, the old people all say,” Skinny Monkey said meaningfully, “that the red leaves on this mountain have a great murderous aura!”

Gang Zi was a little stunned. The content of Skinny Monkey’s words sounded like nonsense, but after careful thought, it seemed very f*cking reasonable.

It was common knowledge that there were many bandits around Hibiscus City in the past. Even a foreigner like him had heard of this. This was caused by the unique terrain around Hibiscus City.

As the saying went, “There will be an alternate universe in Sichuan if we guard the Jianmen Pass and burn the walkway.”

Moreover, there were indeed traces of a cannon blast on Maple Ridge. The nest he had slept in previously should have been a stone house, but it had collapsed from the cannonball and left a huge hole.

In other words, he was actually sleeping in a bomb crater. This could not be faked.

However, these two points were actually not much evidence. What really made his hair stand on end was that he had been around Hibiscus City for a long time in the past, but he had never seen red leaves elsewhere.

It was not that there were no maple trees around Hibiscus City. On the contrary, there were still many maple trees. However, the maple leaves elsewhere would not turn red. Only Maple Ridge was filled with red leaves that were as red as blood every autumn and winter.

He looked at Skinny Monkey in surprise. Logically speaking, a person like Skinny Monkey was obviously ignorant and incompetent. He had no problem making up a story. But he really did not have the ability to make up such a logical and seamless story.

For example, there were no red leaves growing around Hibiscus City. Only the leaves of Maple Ridge would turn red. Such a story was not something he could explain. In other words, what Skinny Monkey said was very likely true!

At the thought of this, Gang Zi also felt a little scared. After all, more than 3,000 people had been smashed to pieces here. Their deaths were too horrible to look at. Even if he often dealt with ancient tombs, he still could not withstand it.

In terms of feng shui, this was completely a so-called dangerous place.

A red leaf fell on his shoulder. His body bounced and he subconsciously wrapped his clothes tightly. “Damn it, I always felt uneasy when I came up this mountain. I even felt cold sleeping in the nest. I don’t know where the cold wind came from.

“So, this mountain has a murderous aura.” He glanced around.

“What do you think? The old people all say that the red leaves on this mountain can drink human blood!” Skinny Monkey looked gratified that he had finally been enlightened. His stomach was about to explode from laughter.

The fact that he was timid had long become the laughing stock of everyone. Everyone teased him about this for no reason, feeling that he was even timider than a rat. After all, only he would burn incense and ask for a long time before entering the tomb.

Sometimes, Skinny Monkey really envied the guts of others, especially Gang Zi. However, from the looks of it, Gang Zi was not very bold.

“Alright, I’m just reminding you not to underestimate this mountain. Otherwise, you won’t even know how you died.” He said proudly, “Let’s quickly bury Bobcat.” He carefully grabbed Bobcat’s arm. “Come, drag it into the pit beside us.”

“Wait.” Gang Zi was indeed a little angry at this moment. He felt that his stomach was cold. “I’ll pee first.”

Seeing Gang Zi hurriedly run to the side to slide the zipper of his pants, Skinny Monkey felt that his stomach was already hurting from laughing. This story was made up by Skinny Monkey. There were indeed bandits in Maple Ridge, but they had never reached the scale of thousands.

After all, until the modern era, the vicinity of Maple Ridge was a remote village. What did thousands of bandits eat? The villagers had probably never reached this number. Back then, there were only one to two hundred bandits on Maple Ridge. Most of them were old, weak, women, and children. There were only dozens of real bandits.

The army had indeed come here to suppress the bandits. And the bandit leader was indeed crazy, but he was not to that extent. He was just acting and asking for leniency..
