"The fourth master..."
The last "official" named Zeng Jiu, who was riding a horse, was dumbfounded as soon as he opened his bow and arrow.
In just two breaths, the strongest one among them, the Fourth Master, was slaughtered with his men and horses. He still didn't understand why he was being kicked onto an iron plate!
Also, in a place like Changzhou, where would it be a bad idea to dare to ride a horse and wander outside alone in winter?
He put down his bow and was about to escape on horseback, but Tsurumi Hatsuun grabbed the green leaf dart and threw it again. The green light reappeared, piercing his chest and killing him on the spot.
The remaining two people also wanted to drive away, but the Aoba escort who flew back did not agree. In the blink of an eye, another person was killed, and the last person was pierced in the heart by Tsurumi Hatsun, who was chasing him. He groaned. There was no movement after a few sounds.
The snow under her feet was dyed red with blood. She stood there and put the green leaf dart and sword back into the storage space, and the Life God armor on her body also dissipated.
In the cage, a young man with a mole on his face crawled out of it, knelt on the ground and shouted to her with snot and tears: "Woman! Woman! Please save me!"
He was speechless when he saw Chuyun, but it was not the man in front of him who was speechless, but Shen Yi.
"Old witch, what are you doing? Touch the corpse! Check if there are any storage bags or anything."
Taking a deep breath, she could only do as Shen Yi said, bending down to inspect the corpses of these false officials.
When the young man saw that she was ignoring him, he was stunned for a moment. When he realized what he was thinking of, he quickly came to the body of the fourth master, pulled off the storage bag on it, and hung it around his waist.
Tsurumi Chuyun looked at him silently, not knowing what he was thinking.
"I'll go, this kid!" Shen Yi couldn't laugh or cry for a while. Except for the one who was called the fourth master, the rest of these fake officials may not be very good. I'm afraid only the fourth master has this storage bag.
"It's enough to save his life. Do you still want our trophies? Go and grab it. If you don't give it, I'll beat him up." Shen Yi shouted in the conscious space, but he was stunned for a moment after shouting.
No, when did we become "Grandpa Goldfinger"?
"I understand." She replied to Shen Yi. She walked toward the young man without saying a word and stretched out her hand in front of him.
"Xiaxia, what are you..."
"Give me the stuff."
"what?"
She pointed at the storage bag on the other person's waist and spread her hands.
The young man understood immediately and quickly covered the storage bag with his hand and said, "This... this is mine!"
"your?"
"Yes, it's mine!"
Seeing that he didn't give it, a coldness flashed in Hejian Chuyun's eyes.
She didn't blink just now, and the scene of killing six people in one breath was still vivid in her mind. The young man shuddered when he noticed the murderous aura in her body, and explained in a trembling tone: "It's... it's really mine. It's just that these four masters took it for themselves. How can they, a group of bandits, pick up the luggage bags? If you don't believe it, just ask..."
He scanned around, but everyone was killed. There was no one else to testify for him. He could only say this: "If you don't believe the heroine, follow me up the mountain to the bandit's village and ask."
Seeing that his tone and demeanor didn't seem like he was telling lies, Tsurumi Chuyun had no choice but to give up and let him go to check on the other bodies.
As he said, these bandits simply couldn't afford space storage bags. She rummaged through everyone's corpses, and only the wrench in the fourth master's hand seemed valuable, while the others were just confused.
There was really nothing to gain. He Jian Chuyun could only ride on his horse and continue on his way. Seeing this, the young man hurriedly unhooked a horse from the prison car and followed him. Then he said with a charming face: "Woman, woman! I'm calling you. Zhuo Mingjin, what do you call the heroine?"
"Jiang Yiyi."
"I can't believe that I glanced at you out of curiosity in Fenghe Town that day. I thought I would never have any interactions with the heroine in this life. I didn't expect that meeting you today would actually save my life. This fate is so wonderful. .”
Hejian Chuyun glanced at him and was too lazy to say anything, but Zhuo Mingjinzui didn't stop and asked: "By the way, Heroine, where are you going?"
"Go north."
"North..." When Zhuo Mingjin heard this, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, and then it turned into disappointment. This is a different path from his own. Look at the sky, it will be dark in another hour. It is very dangerous to be alone outside. of.
He looked at her from behind, and it was different from the first time he saw her. She was wearing a fur coat with bright red satin on the outside and pure white soft fox velvet on the inside. This thing, let alone ordinary people, was As the young master of the family, I am afraid it would be difficult for him to afford it.
Although she looks average, her temperament... Somehow, Zhuo Mingjin has a strong sense of déjà vu when he meets his eldest sister.
The most important thing is the sense of distance...
Could it be that he also comes from a big family?
He thought so.
You shouldn’t. Girls from big families usually don’t go out. Even if they go out, they will take several servants with them. At worst, they will take two maids with them. Like my eldest sister, when she goes out, she will take all the guards, domestic servants, and maids with her. , mighty and mighty, like the stars holding the moon.
The Jiang Yiyi in front of him instantly killed the fourth master who had a positive level of barrier-breaking cultivation with two moves. His strength was at least at the net level, and he seemed to be three or four years younger than himself. Such a person should be surrounded by at least Are there two powerful guards following you?
Thinking of the magic weapon she threw out before, and the horse she is riding now, it is not an ordinary horse. Is it a master who is not short of money?
While he was thinking about it, Tsurumi Chuyun suddenly asked: "When we were in Fenghe Town, I remember there were many people around you, right? Why is it like this?"
"Huh? Well, I finished my business in Fenghe Town and wanted to go back to my family to pay responsibilities. I didn't expect that I would encounter this group of bandits in the boundaries of the Shenshe Lianqiu area, and that's why I would appear here."
"Everyone else is dead?"
"Well, that's right."
"Why don't they kill you."
"Oh~ those bandits knew that I was from the Liandu family, so they wanted to take me to Li'an County to extort some money from my Zhuo family."
"Um."
"Nvxia, what are you going to do in the north? It's not peaceful there."
"I got separated from my elders in my family and went to the north just to find them."
"This...it's not easy to find someone. Heroine, I, Zhuo Mingjin, am not very good at anything else, but I am very kind. Otherwise, Heroine, please stop going to the north for now and come with me." Li'an County, please show your kindness as a landlord and repay the heroine for saving your life today." He said with a sincere face.
After hearing this, Shen Yi couldn't help but lick his teeth and said weirdly: "Good guy, if you ask for a bodyguard, just ask for a bodyguard and repay the favor."
Tsurumi Chuyun glanced at him again. She also saw the An County seat there on the map. It was not far from Taoshan Village, about two hundred miles away, in the northwest direction. Going there would be wasting her time. Of course it was impossible for her to go, so she shook her head and spoke in a calm tone without any emotion.
"Just do it casually, and there's no need to repay the favor."
"Uh..." Zhuo Mingjin's face showed a bit of embarrassment. He couldn't tell that the other party refused.
Or maybe he guessed his true intention...
But in order to return home safely, he had no choice but to bite the bullet.
"Nvxia... let me tell you the truth. There is still a long way to go from here to Li'an County. I am afraid that it will be difficult to complete it alone, so I want to ask the female hero to go with me. Don't worry, when we get to Li'an County, I Zhuo The family will be grateful."
"That's your business, what does it have to do with me?"
"Nvxia, just do it."
Zhuo Mingjin had already begun to plead, but Tsurumi Chuyun stopped talking and ignored him.
"Heroine?"
"..."
"Woman? My aunt has a fine magic weapon on her. If she comes to Li'an County, I will give it to her with both hands!"
"..."
"Heroine~"
"..."
After shouting several times, he didn't hear her response. Zhuo Mingjin could only close his mouth and followed behind on a skinny horse, thinking hard about something.
Both of them were quiet along the way. As the sky gradually darkened, Hejian Chuyun saw the glacier in the distance and subconsciously pulled the reins to stop the horse. However, he looked back at Zhuo Mingjin who was still following him. She showed off He frowned and had no choice but to continue walking forward.
Zhuo Mingjin seemed to see something and realized that something was wrong with him. The next second he had a charming smile on his face, looking like a bitch, and asked: "Woman, if you have anything to do, just ask me." , although I am also a member of the family, I can also help with some chores."
"Help..." His words reminded Tsurumi Chuyun of something. The horse stopped again on the snow. The moment he turned around, Zhuo Mingjin's eyes also flashed with hope, but the next second she asked the question He was stunned.
"Do you still have any money on you?"
"Money...money?" He originally thought that this Jiang heroine was not short of money...
After reacting, he didn't dare to hesitate at all and quickly answered: "Yes, yes."
"how many?"
Zhuo Mingjin lowered his consciousness and counted in the storage bag, "There are still one hundred taels of silver, and there are also some copper coins."
"One hundred taels..." Seeing that Chuyun seemed to be calculating something, Tsururu fell into deep thought. After a while, she stretched out her hand and said, "Give me ninety-two taels."
Zhuo Mingjin didn't know what she wanted ninety-two taels for, but if he could have this heroine escort him back to Li'an County for only ninety-two taels, it would be worth it.
He generously placed four small silver ingots in her palm, totaling one hundred taels.
Tsurumi Chuyun weighed it and felt that the weight was about the same, then took out eight silver coins and threw them over.
"This is..." He took it hurriedly, and before he could react, he saw the other party gesture to him with his eyes, as if he wanted to give him something else.
He stretched out his hand nonchalantly, and after taking it, he took a closer look. This was the Yun Beast Pill, and there were four of them in total.
Zhuo Mingjin was dumbfounded and could not speak for a long time.
"Xia Xia... what are you doing?"
"Ninety-two taels is the money you paid for the Yun Beast Pill."
Yes, it’s totally fake.
This wave of operations was something Shen Yi didn't expect.
"Old witch, are you serious? I cry to death. You could obviously snatch it away, but you still had to give me four Beast Presence Pills."
"..."
Zhuo Mingjin looked at the four beast-enhancing pills in his hand, his eyes changed for a while, and when he looked at her later, his expression was extremely strange.
Two people and two horses left two neat rows of hoof prints on the snow.
After hesitating for a while, he finally spoke and asked, "Xia Xia, are you... an alchemist?"
Seeing that Chu Yun had no reaction, Tsururu gave a very flat answer.
"no."
"Are you really not an alchemist?"
"..."
"...This beast-accumulating elixir is in good quality. Normally no one would want to sell it."
"I have almost all the money I have on my body. Let's exchange it for some money."
"So that's it. I thought the heroine was an alchemist, but I just didn't want to join the Jiyuan Division. In this case, I can still point the heroine to a clear path." Zhuo Mingjin said casually, looking at the beast-preserving pill in his hand. , eyes are shining.
This heroine's surname is Jiang. She is separated from her family elders and is going to the north. She has extra pills with her. She is most likely from a big family, but there is no family named Jiang in Changzhou and Jizhou of Liang...
He connected these clues together and gradually formed a vague answer. He organized what he was going to say next, but he didn't see it at all. Tsurumi Chuyun, who was riding in front, had an increasingly cold look in his eyes.
There was a faint murderous intention bursting out.
The casual words he just said didn't seem to mean anything to Zhuo Mingjin himself, but to her, they always gave people the feeling that there was something in them.
"female……"
After organizing his words, Zhuo Mingjin was about to speak, but just as he uttered a word, murderous intent emerged!
The slowly falling snowflakes were cut away in an instant, and the cold light flashed across the vast white ground, pulling out a round of remaining blood. Although not even a drop of blood fell, the sword edge with murderous intent shocked me. The horse under him suddenly raised his forelimbs and stood up.
Zhuo Mingjin was caught off guard and was thrown heavily to the ground. After that, the horse's forelimbs landed on the ground, turned around and ran backwards for a long way. He stopped only after running more than ten feet away, and stamped the snow on the ground restlessly with his hooves.
He wanted to stand up, but as soon as he sat up, a sword was pointed at his throat.
Looking up, He saw that Chu Yun had dismounted from his horse at some point, and she was the one holding the sword.
"Xia Xia... what are you doing?"
"How do you know I am an alchemist?"
"ah?"
"explain!"
"I...I don't know! Just now, just now, I, just now I was just guessing!" Zhuo Mingjin looked anxious and explained incoherently.
But the other party didn't give him any face, and moved the sword tip forward again, just a hair away from piercing his throat.
"How did you guess that?"
"I, I, I once made a friend who is also an alchemist. When we first met, she was like a heroine. She said that her family was in urgent need of money and wanted to sell elixirs to support the family. It felt like deja vu, and that's why I came up with this guess."
"When did this happen?"
"About three years ago, but he was selling Peiyuan Dan."
Seeing that the opponent did not put down the long sword in his hand, Zhuo Mingjin shouted again.
"Xia Xia, calm down. Don't act recklessly. I'm only twenty-one this year and I'm newly married. I don't want to die so early."
"There's no rush. After you answer my question, I won't kill you."
"Ask, just ask."
"What happened to the alchemist you mentioned?"
"He was recruited into Jiyuan Division, and I haven't seen him for a year."
Tsurumi Chuyun looked at him with eyes full of suspicion, but seeing his frightened look, he still lowered the sword in his hand.
"Get up."
"Yes Yes Yes."
"...You just said you could show me a clear path. What did you mean?"
"..." (End of this chapter)
