Chapter 48: Chapter 48 The Tragic Situation in Tonghe County

The next morning.

Jiang Fan and Su Weiwei got up, feeling content after a restful night.

It was truly an exhilarating fight.

Then Jiang Fan began to disguise Su Weiwei.

He took out a special bottle of Disguise Potion from the Space Ring and started applying it on Su Weiwei.

In just a moment, her originally fair and delicate skin, smooth as jade, turned a sallow and dark color.

It seemed like the skin of a middle-aged woman, aged over decades by sun and rain.

He also dotted her face, instantly sprouting countless red pimples.

It looked just like a pockmarked face, sending chills down one’s spine.

Anyone seeing Su Weiwei now would turn and leave, as if encountering an unsightly rural woman.

She wouldn’t elicit any desire at all.

Of course, even so, Jiang Fan was still not reassured.

Su Weiwei’s figure was truly too good, and commendable.

Thus, he instructed Su Weiwei to bind her chest, wrapping round after round until it became flat.

Finally, Jiang Fan felt completely at ease.

”Husband, your disguise technique is truly formidable.”

Su Weiwei widened her beautiful eyes, marveling at her appearance in a Copper Mirror.

Although becoming ugly is hard for a woman to accept.

It was all for her safety, so she bore no complaint.

In fact, she thought her man’s skills were extraordinary, like turning something rotten into something magical.

It filled her with awe.

”Haha, it’s just a small thing.”

Jiang Fan stroked his chin, realizing the disguise technique was indeed very useful.

Perhaps he could spend some Luck Points to enhance his disguise skills.

However, he would have to wait until he had more Luck Points to afford it.

For now, the disguise technique was completely sufficient.

Then he left the house and headed to Osmanthus Village square, wanting to gather more information about the Red Eyebrow Army.

After all, the Red Eyebrow Army captured Tonghe County, becoming the dominant force in the area.

If he’s uncertain of the Red Eyebrow Army’s movements, sleep would be difficult.

Just as he expected.

The square was already gathering quite a few villagers.

Moreover, another day passed, bringing more news from Tonghe County.

Even some people escaped from Tonghe County.

”It’s said that the Red Eyebrow Army not only seized Tonghe County but also other counties.”

”Under the Red Eyebrow Army’s banner are thirty-six bands of bandits.”

”One band attacked Tonghe County, led by the Bat King, Yang Qin.”

”This man is greedy and lustful, and he enjoys sucking blood.”

”On the battlefield, he often drinks human blood alive, with extreme cruelty.”

”So when they captured Tonghe County, the Bat King Yang Qin unleashed a massacre, slaughtering noble families.”

”All the men from these families were killed by him, while the women were captured to fill his harem.”

Someone described the occurrences when the Red Eyebrow Army overran Tonghe County in detail.

Undoubtedly, for the noble families of Tonghe County, it was a disaster beyond description.

Although some top families received the news early and escaped in advance.

The problem is, such a large family isn’t something that can simply say to run and just run.

So only some elite members of these families managed to flee.

As for the collateral branch members, they could only stay in Tonghe County, sharing its fate.

The outcome was predictable, facing the Bat King Yang Qin, none of these noble families’ descendants fared well.

They were either killed, or captured to become the daredevil team of the Vanguard Camp.

Their future was basically to die as cannon fodder on the battlefield.

”If that’s the case, isn’t Tonghe County in chaos now?”

Someone asked out of curiosity.

”Of course it’s chaotic.”

”The Red Eyebrow Army, after all, is composed of bandits, all thugs and hooligans.”

”After entering Tonghe County, there’s no military discipline left anymore.”

”They rob treasures and assault women at sight.”

”I saw with my own eyes, the womenfolk of a wealthy household, who were slightly more attractive.”

”They were caught by those Red Eyebrow Army soldiers and stripped publicly.”

The person shook his head in lament.

Although he didn’t mention further, everyone knew what those women faced afterwards.

Undoubtedly, this was the chaotic scene of a world in turmoil, utterly lawless, like beasts.

”Isn’t the Red Eyebrow Army supposed to be a Righteous Army, rebelling against the Court?”

”Why are they so wantonly reckless, like robbers entering a city?”

Many villagers shivered with fear.

If they were in Tonghe County, their fate wouldn’t be any better.

Luckily, they were in the countryside.

Despite the poverty here, at least they weren’t targeted by those Righteous Army, not becoming a main battleground.

If luck favored them, they might even avoid the war turmoil.

”Heh, the Red Eyebrow Army is indeed a Righteous Army, claiming to act on behalf of heaven.”

”But not everyone in it is good.”

”Many of them are bandits, joining the Righteous Army merely for fortune.”

”Now that they’ve breached the city, they looted massively, who could restrain them?”

”Moreover, the Bat King Yang Qin himself is a notorious bandit from the Green Forest, killing ruthlessly.”

”Under such a man’s command, one can imagine the military discipline.”

The person spoke resignedly.

To be honest, such disciplined Righteous Army, refusing to harm even an autumn hair, were extremely rare.

The vast majority of Righteous Army are actually robbers, bandits.

It’s precisely because of this that people fear the Righteous Army so much.

If they truly adhered strictly to discipline, they might have the potential to become rulers.

Otherwise, they would just be bandits.

”The Red Eyebrow Army isn’t anything good either, huh.”

Hearing these words, Jiang Fan’s eyes flickered, sighing internally.

Although he hoped to encounter those disciplined Righteous Army, how easy is it to find?

Because this world harbors too many villains, good people seem so precious.

Fortunately, he didn’t pin his hopes on everyone being good.

If true, that would be foolish.

That’s why he pursued the enhancement of his martial dao strength without hesitation.

With mighty strength, regardless of whether the Red Eyebrow Army is good or bad, he could handle them confidently.

Even if they were unreasonable, facing overwhelming power, they would still have to be reasonable.

Without formidable strength, he’d probably just leave his fate to chance.

”Wait, if that’s the case, is there a chance the Red Eyebrow Army would target our Osmanthus Village?”

Many villagers inquired.

They didn’t really care what happened to Tonghe County, only concerned about Osmanthus Village’s future.

After all, that’s what concerns their direct interests.

”Heh, how could they not have eyes on it?”

”From what I know, the Red Eyebrow Army will likely soon send people to the villages near Yunmeng Lake.”

”It’s just unclear what they intend to do with us.”

The person spoke with resignation.

In the current situation, even if he wanted to run, he wouldn’t know where to go.

Given the current state of chaos everywhere, there’s no tranquil place to be found.

This is precisely why Jiang Fan chose to stay in Osmanthus Village despite the dangers, since nowhere else is better either.
