Hearing the noise, the man immediately calmed down and said, "Find a place to hide, and I will go out and have a look. As the sound of the horses is constant and uniform, I suppose they should be well-trained soldiers. This place is only one hour away from the Cangshan Camp and I think Zhao Liu and Tietou should have called for reinforcements as they couldn't find us."

Lin Dan nodded and watched him as he went out. To prepare for any surprises, she found a place and hid with her two maids. After a while, the door of the village slowly opened, and the man walked in with a tall leading man with a knotted beard, followed by Zhao Liu and Luo Tietou.

"Fuck! You got me here on this barren mountain in the middle of the night for a rescue mission, but looks like I came in vain! I've even brought some of my best soldiers here who are close to my heart and they were ready to sacrifice themselves. Although we won't be fighting, you better remember our kindness!" The bearded leader complained in frustration.

"General, we rescued these people from the woodshed, and they are not injured." Some soldiers ran over to report the situation, who were followed by a thankful group of people including Xiao-zhu and the others.

"Where's the manager? Didn't you say that there is a Manager Lin whom we must rescue?" The bearded man looked around impatiently.

"I am here. Please accept my gratitude for coming to the rescue!" Lin Dan immediately walked out of the dark and presented a low bow, while Shaoyao and Dujuan cupped their hands in fear.

The bearded man looked at Lin Dan carefully. He was a little disappointed to see that she only had a nice figure but was not a charming beauty. He had thought that the Manager Lin who Zhao Liu and Luo Tietou asked to rescue no matter what was an exceptional beauty, but she turned out to be someone who was nothing out of the ordinary.

"Never mind, rise." The beard became even more impatient. "My brothers have worked hard during the day and rushed here in the middle of the night. I wonder how many of them will collapse tomorrow. I won't be here if I have known it's just such a small bandit hideout!"

Zhao Liu and Luo Tietou were embarrassed. If they had known that this group of bandits was easy to deal with, they would not rush to the mountain to rescue everyone too. They knew that their leader was strong in martial arts and could certainly protect himself, but they were unsure whether Manager Lin and the two maids would go unscathed. Bandits were well-known to be inhumane, they would rape women and cut men's tongues for sale at the Xishan coal mine. This was why they could wait no more and immediately got reinforcements here as soon as possible.

"Where are the bandits? Have you finished them up?" The bearded man looked at the handsome man and had no doubt that he was able to do so.

"It was Manager Lin who dealt with them." The man pointed to the hall. A group of people hurriedly rushed in to have a look and was shocked by the scene.

"What the fuck?" The beard walked back and forth around the drunken bandits before giving a hard sniff at the empty wine urn. His face turned somber, "What kind of wine is this? It smells damn good!"

Xiao-zhu proudly replied, "This is the Thousand-Days Wine that is brewed by the manager herself."

"Thousand-Days Wine? The one that Liu Xuanshi drank?" The bearded man raised his voice with a shocked expression. He did not mind the mess and grabbed a wine cup that was used by one of the bandits before pouring the last bit of wine into his mouth. He could not help but smacked his lip in an exaggerated manner.

"This is a fine wine and an extremely rare one. It has a nice aroma, it's mellow and strong but smooth as it enters the throat. It burns as it enters the stomach and has a bittersweet aftertaste that lingers for a long time... This is the best wine I have ever drunk. The legendary Thousand-Day Wine, indeed!" As the bearded man commended the wine, he picked up all the wine cups on the table one by one and finished them without wasting a single drop.
