Xie Miaoxuan opened his eyes in the silent night.
As a female dependent, He Qingche and Aunt Fang had been sleeping in the carriage with Xie Miaoxuan these days. She also woke up. Xie Miaoxuan reached out and patted her, indicating that she should continue to lie down without getting up.
He picked up the two long knives beside him, opened the curtain of the carriage, and got off the ground lightly.
Standing next to the carriage, Xie Miaoxuan stared at the heads and counted them.
One or two... there are about twenty people. It seems that the rest of them are still hiding in the high ground over there and waiting.
The twenty people who came were scattered around the camp, and Xie Miaoxuan saw them holding powdered medicine in their hands and scattering it around in the crowd.
Those lying outside the tent were the young and the strong, while those lying inside the tent were the old, weak, women and children.
Seeing people starting to move into the tent, she no longer hesitated and started shooting out like ghosts.
In the flash of cold light, she covered someone's mouth and wiped their neck from behind.
The muffled groan before death did not disturb everyone's sweet dreams.
For a long time, the camp was still quiet, falling into a deathly silence.
"Master, Xiaoliu and the others should have succeeded. These people were all knocked down by the Menghan medicine."
Pu Wu waved his big hand, "Young boys, get out of here. Kill all the men, take the women back and play with them when they have enough, and sell them to the brothels as sheep. I will keep those two beautiful girls. No one is allowed to touch it, otherwise I will chop off his hand."
Someone asked, "Master, don't you want all the men to be alive this time?"
"Don't worry, we brought so many people back last time and there was no place to put them. Are you going to take these people back and feed them with your food rations?"
A group of people roared and rushed down to the ground below.
Sharpen your knife to the pigs and sheep.
When they all rushed forward with a roar, the originally silent camp suddenly burst into flames, causing them to stop immediately.
In the eyes of the headmaster who shrank sharply, Xie Miaoxuan stood at the forefront with a knife in both hands.
Fresh blood was still flowing in the blood groove on the tip of her knife, rolling down drop by drop.
His face was as cold as ice, like a cold-faced Yama reaping heads.
"Oops, I fell into a trap!"
The evil aura all over his body made Pu Wu tremble. They were all gangsters on the road. He could tell who was not easy to mess with just by looking at them. He bulged his eyes and quickly weighed them.
He led people to rush here, but none of the brothers sent out earlier responded. Instead, there were more than 20 corpses lying on the ground, except for the brothers in the village.
Moreover, the torch behind the girl reflected the darkness of heads behind her, and it was obvious that she had been waiting for a long time. He shouted hoarsely, "Retreat."
His order was issued, and as soon as he turned around, he saw a tall and tall man holding a knife in one hand blocking the way back.
The knife was so fast that it was dizzying to see. It was so fast that one could only watch the cold light flash across his eyes. If he made the slightest move, his head would be harvested directly.
Seriously, one man can't stop ten thousand men.
In an instant, more than a dozen corpses were lying on the ground.
Pu Wu's heart was pounding, and he regretted not listening to Meng Pu's advice. This horse was not a weak little sheep that could be bullied. I'm afraid it was not the Lord of Hell who was reincarnated specifically to make merit in the book of life and death.
At the moment of life and death, his knees almost gave out and he fell to the ground.
The young man behind him had extremely high martial arts skills and his figure was erratic like a ghost. He was not something they could deal with. He turned his head bitterly and stared at Xie Miaoxuan, who was still standing there without moving, like a wolf.
To capture the thief, capture the king first. It seems that the girl on his end is easier to deal with.
There was a fierce flash in his eyes. When his life was at stake, how could he remember that he had just said that he would save Xie Miaoxuan's life? The first one to take action was himself, but in a flash of thought, he suddenly turned sideways and shoveled Xie Miaoxuan. past.
Clang.
The long knife and the giant ax collided with each other, making a tooth-piercing friction sound.
Create a spark.
But he was just struggling to death. Xie Miaoxuan's knife was also faster, faster than he imagined. It was so fast that he had no time to shout and admit defeat. There was severe pain in his right shoulder, and he dropped one of his arms to the ground.
The finger was still squirming just after it was separated from the human body.
"ah--"
The screams were so loud that they woke up the most sleeping children in the tent. They rubbed their eyes and were comforted by their mothers.
Xie Miaoxuan felt that the noise was really painful to the eardrums.
"Shut your stupid mouth, it makes my eyes hurt."
She hit the bearded bandit leader in the face with the back of her knife, leaving his mouth full of blood and seven or eight broken teeth.
The screams suddenly died down.
Those bandits saw that their boss was subdued like this. From the beginning to the end, only one man and one woman took action, and the vigorous movements at the back had not yet started.
They didn't understand that they were kicking an iron plate, so they all put down their weapons, fearing that their heads would be in danger if they gave in and were too slow.
"My lady, spare your life, spare your life."
Xie Miaoxuan looked at the heads that were falling one after another on the ground.
"Put down your weapons and answer my questions honestly."
"Where are you all from?"
"Where is the base camp?"
A man who looked like a small boss replied, "We are all from Chongzhou, and our base camp is at Heifeng Village, thirty miles away from here."
"How many people are there in the village?"
"No, the leader said that this time the Big Fat Sheep has brought out all the brothers in the stronghold, leaving only a few people guarding the stronghold. Our brothers are all here."
Xie Miaoxuan immediately struck him with a knife, stabbing his arm until blood dripped from his arm. "What I'm asking is, how many people did you take back?"
"There are more than a hundred sheep...people...in the village," he thought hard, and now he has learned his lesson, and affirmed, "There are sixty or seventy women, and thirty or forty men." They were all just snatched back by the master last time. They said they were from a wealthy family, and I heard they all call them Wang Gong or Ge Gong."
Xie Miaoxuan's eyebrows jumped and she waved for Xie Xiao to come up.
"Take someone to hold him down and go to Heifeng Stronghold and rescue all the people inside."
Xie Xiao took the order and went out, mentioned the little boss and left. About three hours later, he brought back a group of unkempt people.
Wasn't it the Yongchuan Ge family and Caijun Wang family whom she met by chance two days ago who were returning home?
The aristocratic gentleman who had previously been playing cards of the famous family, applying powder on his face and incense on his body, already seemed to have been tortured in just two days, his face was bruised and he was out of shape.
The clothes on his body were also dirty and dirty.
Many of those people still remembered her, and those who had ridiculed her openly or secretly lowered their heads in shame.
Wang Yongyuan's long, delicately groomed beard was cut so much it looked like it had been gnawed by a dog. He stepped forward quickly, "It turns out it was Miss Xie who saved us," he said with a choked voice, "I regret it..."
When he talked about it in detail, Xie Miaoxuan realized that after she separated from them, they still behaved luxuriously along the way. They encountered several groups of refugees who were driven away wantonly, and as a result, they were resented. Those people had no choice but to inform this person of their whereabouts. A group of bandits.
Someone served him a pot at night.
Nearly a hundred servants were killed or injured, and they were brutally beaten for two days, and all their belongings were looted.
Xie Miaoxuan was speechless. Didn't they know to leave someone to watch the night when they went to bed at night?
You didn't know the pain until the knife fell on you, so what's the use of regretting it now.
However, she didn't add insult to injury, she just tried to comfort them with kind words and asked someone to clear out an open space to accommodate their clan members.
Meng Pu was immediately recognized among them, "He is not from our tribe, but he is from the same den as this group of thieves and snakes."
When Meng Pu saw that he could not get through, and saw the tragic state of the master's broken arm, his face turned pale with fear.
But he had a bright idea, and the nearly 200 people except Pu Wu were all tied up in a pile, until Xie Miaoxuan was not a man who killed innocent people indiscriminately, and quickly apologized to himself, "Nvjun, I only took refuge in Pu Wu when I had no other choice." , there is no life in my hands, please spare my life. I know a few words and am willing to serve you."
"Oh?" Xie Miaoxuan was hesitant.
On the other hand, Ge Zhang, who remained speechless, angrily rebuked, "The thieves harmed my people and they don't deserve to live in this world."
The angry-looking man was about to pull out his dagger and kill someone, but Xie Miaoxuan stopped him with his sword.
“Ms.
Xie Miaoxuan's face turned cold. She had just saved them. Ge Zhang, who had previously disliked her because she was a girl, was now yelling at her.
You can't figure out your situation.
"Mr. Ge, I captured the person. It's not your turn to say what to do with him."
"you!"
Wang Yongyuan knew Ge Zhang's temperament, so he leaned over to smooth things over, "Geong Ge, your life and mine are both saved by the lady. Don't be rude."
Now that Ge Zhang had regained his freedom, he unconsciously tried to save the family's reputation and insisted on asking Xie Miaoxuan to give him an explanation.
Xie Miaoxuan almost laughed angrily, "You know how polite it is? I saved you from danger, but you are ungrateful and just yelled at me. Now you are forcing your savior to give you an explanation? What explanation should I give you? Could it be?" I saved the wrong person. Is he a male or a villain?"
Understatement, disgusting every word.
Ge Zhang never thought that he would hear the word "villain" from a girl. One sentence of "villain" judgment was enough to make him lose face.
But since he had never thought about saving face for her, and wanted to step on her to establish his prestige in front of everyone and wash away the humiliation of the past two days, Xie Miaoxuan would naturally not save him face.
He was still talking shamelessly and nonsense, "Master Wang, don't stop me. Women are women. He actually sympathizes with thieves and bandits. It's strange that the sage said: Only women and villains are difficult to raise."
He wanted to throw the word villain back to Xie Miaoxuan through the sage's words.
But how could Xie Miaoxuan spoil him?
"What does this have to do with whether I am a boy or a girl? If you look down on me as a woman, I can still save your life. In this case, you might as well kill yourself. If you are saved by a woman, you will definitely have no shame in surviving."
Then he made harsh words, "There is a saying that people who are different do not work together. Mr. Ge is so aloof and looks down on women, but here I don't distinguish between men and women. Whoever has the bigger fist is the boss. Speaking of which, I still look down on you." Well, go away, for the sake of Wang Gong, I allow you to take your tribe and leave my team."
