The middle-aged man was a little desperate. Last night's work was still in vain! The nearly four hundred taels of silver that were about to be obtained just disappeared!
When the three people saw the middle-aged man's disheveled expression and hadn't yet opened the dice cup, they already guessed that they had won, and anxiously urged: "Hurry up! Hurry up!"
The middle-aged man was worried, thinking that he would have to do it all over again, so he reached out to lift the dice cup.
But just when he picked up the dice cup, something unexpected happened.
The dice cup suddenly fell from his hand and hit the dice right on top. The dice were all disrupted!
"You! What are you doing?" The three people looked at the middle-aged man in shock.
The middle-aged man was also surprised. He just felt a pain somewhere in his arm, and then his hand suddenly became numb and he couldn't work hard.
Since the painful spot on his arm was not an important point, the middle-aged man didn't pay much attention to it, thinking it was just a throbbing pain in his arm after overexertion.
Just as he was about to explain his unintentional intention, he glanced at the mess he had accidentally destroyed and thought to himself: "Is it God who is helping me? Those four hundred taels are back again?"
The middle-aged man cleared his throat and said seriously: "This game doesn't count. Let's start over!"
"How is this possible? We obviously won!" the one-eyed man said angrily.
"Who said you won? Who saw the result?" The middle-aged man planned to fight to the death.
"I saw it! It's the small one!" said the young man.
When the other two people heard this, they all started shouting that they had won, regardless of whether they were playing small or not!
The middle-aged man said impatiently: "Don't argue! I am the banker, and what I say counts!"
The three people looked at each other with sinister looks on their faces.
Then the one-eyed man took the lead in overturning the gambling table, and the three of them attacked the middle-aged man at the same time.
The four of them started fighting immediately.
Ling'er was overjoyed. It turned out that she had just hit the middle-aged man's arm with a tiny stone at a random spot along the Jueyin-pericardium meridian at the critical moment when he was opening the dice cup, causing his arm to be slightly numb for a moment. Spasm is what doctors call "elbow and arm spasm."
Ling'er quickly pulled out the steel needle from the small bag in her left hand and took advantage of the chaos to sneak attack.
So what if the four people's martial arts are high? When you are obsessed with profit and want to defeat the opponent, how can you guard against Ling'er lurking in the dark?
It's easy to dodge open guns and hard to guard against hidden arrows, so the four of them were knocked unconscious by Ling'er one after another.
Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief, finally fulfilling his mission and completing the task assigned by Brother Qi Yang. But if she could shoot multiple steel needles at once like Brother Qi Yang, wouldn't they need to stay here for so long?
"Let's go quickly!" Ling'er helped Qi Yang and walked around the four people lying on the ground toward the exit.
But as soon as the exit door was pushed open, Ling'er quickly closed the door.
Outside is Qiu Yuju.
But Qiu Yuju at this time is different from the past.
The fire yesterday evening burned Qiu Yuju into ruins, leaving only a ruined wall and no eaves.
It was noon at this time, and the sunlight outside formed a strong contrast with the darkness in the cave, so Ling'er couldn't help but close the door.
Knowing that Ling'er was afraid of being exposed to strong sunlight, Qi Yang hurriedly comforted her and said, "Girl, don't be afraid! The guards outside are not that good in martial arts. We have passed the most difficult level."
"Really?" Ling'er felt a little relieved.
"We are facing west now, and the way down the mountain is to the north. Because there is a cliff to the east, going south should be a dead end." Qi Yang continued.
"Then shall we go north?" Ling'er asked.
"The brothers in the door must be lurking on the way down the mountain, and Xu Le will also arrange guards in the north." Qi Yang analyzed.
"Is it possible that we have to go south? We know it is a dead end..." Ling'er frowned.
"If I can use my inner strength, I may be able to break through Xu Le's defense and join the brothers in the door." Qi Yang asked Ling'er what he meant.
"Don't take the 'Soul Locking Pill'!" Linger hurriedly refused.
"Actually, I don't have much internal energy at this moment. When the internal energy is exhausted, the 'Soul Locking Pill' will have no effect." Qi Yang tried to convince Ling'er.
"That won't work! Even if there is no internal strength, the injured meridians will still be very painful!" Ling'er firmly objected.
Qi Yang sighed helplessly. He didn't dare to take the medicine secretly without Ling'er's consent. He was afraid that Ling'er would come to grab the medicine again. How could he win over Ling'er at this time? Maybe Ling'er would throw away the medicine. Then if he encountered danger later, how should he protect Ling'er?
"Is there no other way?" Ling'er asked.
"It's not impossible, it just takes more effort." Qi Yang said truthfully.
"So what if it takes more effort? You always hurt yourself in order to get a quick victory!" Ling'er said sadly.
"Okay, let's go south." Qi Yang made a decision.
Ling'er frowned and said, "But isn't the south a dead end?"
"Because it is a dead end, there are not many guards in the south. Even when Xu Le chased us, he couldn't guess that we would go south." Qi Yang analyzed.
"Then we will also be trapped in the south!" Ling'er asked puzzledly.
Qi Yang explained: "Has the girl forgotten the brother in the door? Let's find a safe place to wait. When Xu Le comes out to chase people, the brothers in the door will definitely come out to intercept him."
"Then we can take advantage of the chaos to join them?" Ling'er praised, "This is really a good idea!"
"It's not necessarily a good solution. There are too many variables and it's difficult to control." Qi Yang frowned.
"Then let's be careful and don't cause too much noise." Ling'er said.
Qi Yang looked back at the weapons of the four people on the ground. They were either holding knives or hammers, and they were neither suitable for Ling'er to use, so he had to go out with Ling'er's support.
Although Qiu Yuju has been almost burned, the remaining tall and short walls still serve as a good cover for Qi Yang and Ling'er.
As they headed south, they only saw some Demon Cult believers gathered there in small groups to rebuild their houses, and rarely encountered patrolling guards. All they had to do was carefully maneuver around the crowd.
But there will always be times along the way that are difficult to avoid and must take action.
"What should I do?" Ling'er asked Qi Yang softly, looking at the path between the two groups of demon sect members that was not sufficiently hidden.
Qi Yang pointed to a wall on the inside next to the mountain and asked Ling'er to go over and discuss it.
Seeing Qi Yang pointing to a branch on the ground, Ling'er frowned and said, "Is this my 'sword'?"
Qi Yang smiled and said: "Keep this branch girl for now. If it attracts the group of people on the side, it will not be too late to take it out. As for the three people here, it is enough to deal with it with steel needles."
After listening to Qi Yang's arrangement, Ling'er hid behind the wall and released a steel needle at one of the three people.
"Ouch!" The man cried out in pain.
"What's wrong?" The two people next to them asked concernedly.
"It seems like something bit me." The man covered his ankle and said with pain.
It turns out that the steel needle released by Ling'er didn't hit the man's vital part, but the vaginal area on his leg that made him feel numb and weak.
A wave of soreness and numbness came over him, and the man couldn't stand and sat down on the ground.
"Could it be that he was bitten by a poisonous snake?" a tall man said.
At this moment, a "whispering" sound came from a corner next to them, just like a real venomous snake.
"Good guy, there really is a snake!" the tall man said, and walked towards the corner with the knife.
