Gu Chengyu glanced at the bewildered group standing on the deck and sighed.
These people clearly hadn't experienced such things before. As soon as the ship began approaching Gu Chengyu and the others, he was certain they were the River Bandits. There were only twenty or thirty crew members and fighters, along with a dozen common folks, which was far too few.
If they didn't resist, Gu Chengyu wasn't sure if anyone on the ship would survive. Jingyuan River didn't face many robberies, but Yi River was often plagued by River Bandits. Some left only after taking valuables, causing no harm. Others, however, committed arson, murder, looting, all sorts of atrocities. Not a single woman on board was spared from their humiliation.
