Chapter 917 - 878: Zombie-Raiding Bandits

When Zhao Rong heard that there were really bandits coming, specifically to rob these Qing Dynasty zombies,

he felt it was incredibly bizarre and said:

"What the hell, bandits coming to rob money, grain, and people is understandable,

but robbing zombies?

These bandits are truly bizarre...

I really want to go out and see just how impressive these bandits are, robbing Qing Dynasty zombies?"

With that, Zhao Rong prepared to open the door to meet these bandits robbing Qing Dynasty zombies.

However, before Zhao Rong could reach the front door, the corpse driver fearfully grabbed Zhao Rong, not letting him go out, and said:

"Big brother, please, don’t go out,

these bandits, their guns are all Hanyang-made..."

When Zhao Rong heard that the bandits’ guns were old Hanyang-made from the Republic period,

he frowned in surprise and said:

"It’s the 21st century, how are these bandits still using guns as outdated as Hanyang-made?"

Upon hearing this, the corpse driver was startled, looked at Zhao Rong very curiously, and asked:

"Big brother, what are you saying?

Now it’s the 21st century?

Big brother, you must be joking,

it’s actually the 21st year of the Republic..."

When Zhao Rong heard the corpse driver say it was now the 21st year of the Republic,

he was incredibly shocked and said:

"No way, have we traveled to the Republic period again?"

Miss Lili quickly took out her phone, opened the calendar, checked the date, and said:

"Brother Zhao Rong, that’s right, we’ve really traveled to the Republic period,

it’s now 1934, exactly the 21st year of the Republic..."

Upon hearing this, beauty Yu Lan took a deep breath and said:

"The Republic was from 1912 to 1949,

during this time, all was called the Republic...

Could it be we really traveled from the previous Ming Dynasty Tianshun era, suddenly to 1934, the 21st year of the Republic?"

The corpse driver confirmed strongly and said:

"No doubt, it’s now the 21st year of the Republic..."

Zhao Rong swallowed and looked at the corpse driver in front, saying:

"No wonder you said a zombie can sell for a million...

Turns out you’re referring to the highly inflationary Republic period currency..."

During the Republic period, due to severe currency inflation, a million yuan could only buy a bag of flour at most.

Miss Lili spoke with emotion, saying:

"At the time, when you said you could earn 18 million a year,

I really thought you could earn 18 million in RMB...

But I didn’t expect you were talking about 18 million of Republic currency..."

Beauty Yu Lan suddenly laughed, feeling 18 million Republic dollars were worthless, and said:

"In the Republic period, inflation was so severe that 18 million of it could only buy a few bags of flour at most..."

At this moment, the assistant suddenly pulled out a revolver from his pocket,

while walking towards the door, he confidently said:

"I really want to see if these Hanyang-made guns by the bandits are powerful, or my revolver is more powerful..."

After saying that, the assistant thought to himself:

The revolver I hold is equipped by the Hong Kong Royal Police, extremely powerful,

and is unlikely to jam, with excellent performance.

As the assistant kicked open the door, holding the revolver, aiming at the 5 or 6 bandits in front, fired a shot,

he was incredibly shocked and said:

"Damn it, which guy played a prank? Actually swapped my revolver for a water gun..."

Upon pulling the trigger, the assistant’s revolver didn’t shoot bullets, but black ink.

And when the bandits attempting to steal Qing Dynasty zombies were squirted on the face with the water gun by the assistant,

he immediately aimed a Hanyang-made gun at the assistant, fired a shot, and said:

"Damn it, we came to steal Qing Dynasty zombies, but didn’t expect to encounter an idiot who squirts my face with a water gun..."

The assistant was knocked down in one shot by the Hanyang-made gun.

However, due to Hanyang-made guns not being very powerful,

the bullet shape and penetration were not strong,

so when the shot hit the assistant’s left shoulder,

it just knocked him to the ground without causing serious injury or death.

Seeing this, the assistant crawled up from the ground, rushing into the room where Zhao Rong was, and reminded everyone, saying:

"Brother Zhao Long, Miss Lili, beauty Yu Lan, beauty Xuelian, corpse driver, get ready, these bandits have Hanyang-made guns and dare to shoot..."

At this time, 5 or 6 bandits, holding Hanyang-made guns, had already stormed in.

The bandits, holding Hanyang-made rifles, aimed at Zhao Rong and his group arrogantly, saying:

"You people are all corpse drivers, right,

if you obediently hand over these zombies to us,

we’ll let you go, otherwise, we’ll use the Hanyang-made to wound you first, then capture you as conscripts to sell..."

At this point, the corpse driver stepped forward, kneeled down, and pleaded with the bandits, saying:

"Big brother, I painstakingly brought six zombies from Miaojiang, just take three and leave me three,

after all, my family has an 80-year-old mother, and a wife and children, waiting for me to earn money and return to feed them..."

But before the corpse driver could finish, the leading big-bearded bandit kicked him down and said viciously:

"Damn it, you need to earn money for your family, I also need to earn money for mine,

it’s just that our professions differ; you are a corpse driver, we are bandits...

If I only rob three zombies,

then my wife and kids, and my elderly mother can only eat half full, not completely full,

to ensure my wife and kids, and elderly mother can eat well, I must rob all six corpses you brought from Miaojiang..."

The bald bandit then aimed his Hanyang-made gun at the corpse driver’s head, saying:

"If you don’t scram, watch as I blow your head off..."

The small-bearded bandit also looked at Zhao Rong’s group of five, warning them, saying:

"You few, hurry and step back, don’t interfere with us robbing these six zombies,

otherwise, we’ll use Hanyang-made to blast you..."

At this moment, Zhao Rong stepped forward, finding it incredibly funny, said to the bandits:

"Damn it, I’ve heard of bandits robbing money, grain, and women,

but I haven’t heard of robbing zombies, you’re really hilarious..."

Miss Lili stepped forward, thoroughly puzzled, said:

"Why rob zombies out of all things,

really can’t understand what you plan to use these zombies for once you’ve robbed them?"

Beauty Xuelian thought it was incredibly funny and said:

"You bandits from the Republic period, are you planning to film a movie with these zombies after robbing them to earn money?"

Beauty Yu Lan mocked the bandits even more, said:

"Even if you have real zombies,

I still feel you can’t film the zombie movies Daoist Ling Zhengying could,

because you don’t look like Daoists at all, just a bunch of bandits..."

The assistant also crazily mocked the bandits, saying:

"Today, it’s your bad luck to meet brother Zhao Rong,

you’ll soon know how formidable brother Zhao Rong is..."
