At the late summer solstice, it rained heavily and thunder roared.
There was deep water on the road, the cracked land collapsed, and all the crops in the farmland were destroyed.
South to Huaijiang.
At the city gate of Huaijiang, and along the official road, there were batches of refugees. They surrounded the city gate, their eyes dark and their complexions sallow.
Only when they see the carriage coming out of the city, they will show expectant eyes, as if praying that a rich man in the city can give them something.
Suddenly, a group of men with swords came out of the city gate. Their leader was a man in white clothes that looked like snow, with only a little red on his sleeves.
With a slender figure, impressive temperament, and handsome appearance, almost everyone could not ignore him once he stood in the crowd.
He is the legendary Li Xiangyi, the best in the world.
Li Xiangyi flew up to the city wall and said loudly: "Don't worry, everyone, Sigumen has brought enough food to everyone this time, enough to support the government to release food."
The crowd cheered.
The corners of his mouth raised, and he continued: "Line up one by one and come to the front to receive them."
The crowd was in commotion, and no one was afraid that there would be no one behind. The man frowned.
At this moment, a carriage came running from a distance. The carriage was covered with gauze curtains and golden beads hung from the four corners. At first glance, it looked like it was not an ordinary person sitting there.
The road leading into the city was crowded with people. The coachman tightened the horse's rope but was still too late to stop the horse. He saw that the carriage was about to trample on two people.
Li Xiangyi tapped his toes and pulled the two people away.
The horse's hooves were raised high and then lowered heavily, and there was a bang in the jolting carriage.
I don’t know what happened.
After a while, a pair of white hands opened the curtain, and then a pretty woman of fifteen or sixteen years old in red came out.
She wore a golden hairpin on her head and a small golden bell hanging around her waist. There was an aura of wealth all over her body.
She said angrily: "What's going on? Who surprised my lady's horse? Didn't you know that my lady was in the carriage?"
The groom lowered his head, and no one around him dared to answer.
Su Baoer was so angry that he raised the corner of his skirt and was about to jump off the carriage.
Li Xiangyi frowned.
How could a child go through the bustling city with gold in his arms and not be known to others?
"Sister, is this gold jewelry?" A child in the crowd looked at the gold jewelry on Su Baoer's body with bright eyes.
"Of course it's real. How could I still wear fake ones?" If she wore fake ones, she would become a joke.
Su Baoer crossed her arms and glanced at the crowd around her. Seeing their gray and sallow appearance, Su Baoer lost her temper at this moment. She raised her feet and was about to get on the carriage, but the crowd behind her surrounded her carriage.
Su Baoer said sternly: "What do you want to do? This is the gate of Huaijiang City."
The crowd hesitated for a moment, and Su Baoer took the opportunity to run back to the carriage.
Desire seems to outweigh the fear of power.
A young man grabbed the corner of Su Baoer's skirt, and the people behind him followed his movements and quickly approached.
When the secret guard in the dark was considering whether to get out, a sword was thrown over by someone unknown, and it was thrust into the ground with sword energy.
The stone plate on the ground was broken into half.
The people around him were so shocked that they didn't dare to move.
Su Baoer's eyes flashed as he watched this scene.
"Thank you, brother," he nodded to the man in the distance.
Su Bao'er tried to pull out the sword, but Li Xiangyi hadn't even spoken to remind him, but it didn't take long for the sword to be pulled out.
He opened his mouth, a little surprised.
Although the young master's sword is not too heavy, it was inserted 30 centimeters into the ground just now. It shouldn't be so easy. Could it be that this woman is also a practitioner.
If so, then it shouldn’t have happened just now…
Li Xiangyi stared at Su Baoer closely.
Su Baoer took a look at the sword and raised his face: "What a sword.
She didn't know anything about swords, but she just wanted to show off her skills.
The people around him were still staring at Su Baoer, but they didn't dare to step forward because the master was here.
Li Xiangyi thought for a while, then flew and landed next to Su Baoer.
On the other side of the gate, people were already shouting for food to be distributed. The number of people around gradually decreased, and they were all lured over.
Su Baoer looked at Li Xiangyi, shook the sword in his hand, guessed what was going on, and smiled sweetly: "Come to get the sword? I was just about to give it to you."
Su Baoer handed the sword over, and Li Xiangyi was about to take it, but she took the sword back again.
Facing Li Xiangyi's confused gaze, the corners of Su Baoer's mouth curved slightly, revealing her dimples.
"I'll give it back to you later. Lend it to me first."
"It's up to you," Li Xiangyi shrugged.
Su Baoer picked up the sword, and with high spirits and fighting spirit, he slashed at the golden beads hanging on the top of the carriage.
Not a single drop fell out with the knife.
Li Xiangyi couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth. Sure enough, his guess just now was all false.
This is the most dishonest person he has ever seen.
Although he didn't understand why this man cut off the roof of his carriage, he still asked cautiously: "Do you need help?"
Su Baoer looked suspicious of life. "Impossible, how can I keep cutting this?"
