They say your illegitimate child is worthless, yet you rebel with seven wives?

Chapter 61 Natural Hidden Ground

Su Luo and the others calmly traversed the rugged mountain path and arrived at the mountainside.

Looking up, one can see that among the lush green grass and gray-black rocks, there are actually buildings hidden.

The building stretched upwards from the flat area on the mountainside, leading to an unknown destination.

At first glance, it appears to have dozens or even hundreds of houses.

Su Luo glanced at it and was slightly surprised. No wonder Langya Mountain had been able to wreak havoc in Linshui County for so many years, and the surrounding villages were all suffering helplessly.

Even if Langya Mountain itself had some collusion with the Marquis of Sinan, it would be extremely difficult for government troops to suppress the bandits.

Even if the government troops were familiar with the mountain paths, it was useless for those bandits from Langya Mountain to sneak into these houses!

Easy to defend, hard to attack?!

No, there's simply no way to attack!

Unless, of course, you are willing to pay an extremely high price!

But the desire to make everyone in Linshui County, from the Marquis of Sinan to the mayor of Yunhai Town, pay the price is just for the sake of suppressing bandits.

That's just a dream!

They preferred to collect money under the guise of suppressing bandits, and after collecting the money, they would just go up a mountain and have Blood Wolf bring out some villagers' corpses to hand over!

Then, they said that the bandit suppression had yielded results, but it was not a success!

This kind of drama has been played out too many times, so almost everyone in the surrounding villages and towns has become accustomed to being bullied by mountain bandits!

Of course, the bandits of Langya Mountain wouldn't go too far; at most, they would only rob. If they killed too many people, it would attract attention from other areas!

Su Luo's thoughts raced, her eyes sparkling, and she felt... this place was quite nice!

If we could take over Langya Mountain, then with just a little modification, we could make full use of it!

We will train our troops in Xiaoyun Village, and then hide them on Langya Mountain!

Su Luo glanced at it and realized that the territory of Langya Mountain was very large. If it were to be modified along the current route, it would be at least the size of five Xiaoyun Villages!

Then, even if I train tens of thousands of troops, it will be enough!

Thinking of this, Su Luo's eyes gleamed. Wolf Fang Mountain, it was practically made just for him!

This is a natural hiding place for troops!

Deep within Langya Mountain, an even higher-level workshop could be built to manufacture... gunpowder!

"May I ask what this gentleman's name is?"

The burly man, Mr. Xue, led Su Luo deeper into Langya Mountain. On the way, he asked, "To be appreciated by the Marquis, you must be quite extraordinary!"

Zhang Daqiang snorted, "My master's surname is Luo, and his given name is not something someone like you would know..."

"Hey, Daqiang, don't do that!"

Su Luo smiled and said to Mr. Xue, "Mr. Xue, my original surname is Luo, but the Marquis admired me and wanted to adopt me as his son, so I was originally going to be named Su Luo..."

At this point, a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he said, "However, I presume Mr. Xue also knows..."

"In the Marquis's mansion, there is a young master... hehe, an illegitimate child... named Su Luo!"

"So, I'll still use my old name, Luo Changfeng..."

When Su Luo spoke, he didn't deliberately reveal much anger or similar emotions; only his eyes showed some changes.

Mr. Xue took all this in, a hint of suspicion flashing in his eyes, and said with a smile, "The Su Luo you're talking about..."

"Don't worry, General Luo will soon be able to use this name. This man won't live much longer!"

Su Luo looked surprised. "Oh? Why do you say that?!"

"No matter what, Su Luo is still a young master of the Marquis's mansion... Even though he's an illegitimate child, the Marquis can't just stand by and watch him..."

Mr. Xue said, "Who can say for sure about the struggles between large families?! Of course, the Marquis won't just stand by and watch something happen to his son!"

"But what if he doesn't treat Su Luo as his son at all?!"

As they spoke, Mr. Xue led Su Luo to a square and said, "General Luo, please wait here for a moment..."

"The chief should still be resting. I'll go and let him know!"

Su Luo nodded, and only after Mr. Xue left did she begin to look around.

This is a square, incredibly vast, even larger than the threshing ground in Xiaoyun Village. Various buildings are scattered around the dense forest in the distance.

The doors of those buildings were all tightly closed, but at that moment, a rustling sound could be heard.

"Uncle..."

Zhang Daqiang walked to Su Luo's side, his expression cold, looking at the houses.

Su Luo also saw through the cracks in the open doors a pair of eyes that were scrutinizing them with unfriendly gazes.

These houses are full of thieves!

Moreover, they are all bandits who have killed people and are ready to attack Su Luo and his group at any time!

Su Luo said softly, "Be on guard!"

"That Mr. Xue... has very likely already figured out we have a problem! If he goes there, he might call Blood Wolf!"

"It's also possible that they'll attack us directly!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Daqiang's eyes sharpened slightly, and he said, "Don't worry, son-in-law, Boss Ye Hu and his men will be there to provide support at any time!"

"We also have enough crossbow bolts in our quiver..."

"At the critical moment, we will definitely be able to hold out until Boss Ye Hu and the others arrive!"

Su Luo said, "This operation is extremely dangerous and should not be underestimated. There are probably more than a hundred bandits around Wolf Fang Mountain!"

"Even with our composite crossbows, we might not be able to deal with them easily!"

Zhang Daqiang nodded, "Son-in-law, I understand. We will definitely not underestimate these bandits..."

Just then, a hearty laugh rang out.

"Could it be Lord Luo, the commander of the Marquis's personal guards?!"

Immediately afterwards, a tall man with a bloody scar on his face walked over.

Mr. Xue followed behind, his face ashen; it seemed that something unpleasant had happened between them.

Su Luo immediately snapped out of his daze, looked at the man with the blood-red scar, and said, "You are the leader of the Blood Wolves?!"

He was somewhat surprised, having originally thought that this leader of the Blood Wolves must be some kind of extraordinary person.

But looking at him like this, he didn't feel as special as Mr. Xue.

At most, he's just a bit burly.

Blood Wolf nodded and said, "That is me!"

"Lord Luo said that the Marquis has a token to give me, so just bring it up. Also, if the Marquis wants to say anything to me, just say it!"

Hearing this, Mr. Xue gritted his teeth and took half a step forward: "Blood Wolf, I..."

Blood Wolf turned to look at Mr. Xue, "Old Xue, don't worry, didn't Lord Luo already produce the token of the Su family's direct lineage?!"

"He'll definitely be fine. Only direct descendants of the Su family can obtain this token..."

Upon hearing this, Mr. Xue's expression turned extremely ugly.

Su Luo's smile immediately turned amused; it seemed that this Mr. Xue had indeed noticed something was amiss with him...

However, Blood Wolf seems to be too confident!

They believed that since Su Luo only had a dozen or so people, and they dared to venture into Wolf Fang Mountain, there would definitely be no problem!
