Li Wenli had grown accustomed to Bai Junjun’s good fortune.
It would be strange if the young lady didn’t gain something from her outings. After everyone regrouped, Bai Junjun and Li Wenli held a brief meeting.
At that time, under the watchful eyes of Ah Dao and the others, Black Eight felt extremely awkward.
Smiling Face, with his arms crossed, said seriously, "I recognize you."
"Uh..." Black Eight was a bit embarrassed.
"That night, when Brother Ah Dao was fighting one-on-one, your clapping and cheering were the loudest!"
"That was... that was..." Black Eight, feeling shame-faced, said, "When you’re under someone’s roof, you have to bow your head. I was just trying to fit in with Black Spider, but now I’ve seen the light, and I’m with you guys."
They finally understood why Miss Junjun had spared this guy.
It turned out Miss Junjun had seen right through him from the start, recognizing him as a fence-sitter.
Look at him, telling people what they want to hear. They almost believed him, if not for their seasoned experience.
Facing the others’ contempt, Black Eight could only force a sheepish smile.
It was only eleven in the morning, and Bai Junjun thought if they hurried, they might be able to handle the entire Black Spider within a day.
After hearing Bai Junjun’s plan to use Black Eight to recruit other Bandits, Li Wenli nodded, "Recruiting them to become part of Dai County’s Yong Army would indeed be more useful than killing them, as long as they can be controlled."
"That won’t be a problem," Bai Junjun said as she spread out her hands, revealing a handful of Grass Seeds from who knows wherever.
Looking at the seeds with curiosity, Li Wenli asked, "What are these?"
"Ordinary Grass Seeds," Bai Junjun replied.
"..." Li Wenli gave her a helpless look, "I know that, I mean, what are you planning to do with them?"
"I’ll add some Special Ability to them, and they’ll become super Grass Seeds. Once eaten, if I activate my Special Ability, these seeds will start to grow wildly inside a person’s stomach, until eventually, that person becomes a walking planter."
"..." Li Wenli was speechless, staring at Bai Junjun.
With the most ordinary tone, the young lady had told him a terrifying story, leaving him speechless.
"Miss, you’ve scared me."
Bai Junjun ignored Li Wenli’s fear and seriously continued, "We’ll use Zhao Family Village as a base and invite the Bandits there to eat the Grass Seeds. What do you think?"
"..." Li Wenli didn’t refuse, as long as he wasn’t the one eating.
No sooner said than done, the group immediately made a detour to Zhao Family Village.
It was half an hour’s journey from there and not too far.
When everyone arrived at Zhao Family Village, it was already noon—time for lunch.
Bai Junjun and Li Wenli tacitly went to the kitchen to cook something to eat, acting as if the place were their own home.
While they were preparing to cook, Xiao Chan also took Black Eight to send up the wolf smoke.
Plumes of wolf smoke shot into the sky from that place, and the black and yellow smoke curled and lingered for a long time.
At the moment the wolf smoke rose, Black Eight also knew he had completely betrayed Black Spider, and not only that, he was about to persuade others to betray Black Spider with him.
He feared that once the news got out, Big Black would mark him as a target for hunting.
He felt like crying...
But he had no choice.
He had joined Black Spider to survive, and now he was joining these people for the same reason. As long as he could live, that was better than anything else.
Watching Black Eight crying his eyes out, Xiao Chan couldn’t help but feel compassion and decided to comfort him.
