As soon as Bai Feng jumped out of the window, she raised her hand and grabbed the eaves of the other house. She turned over nimbly and climbed onto the roof easily. He looked at the three figures on the road. He was now three feet above the ground, so he had the upper hand. Because the pharmacy was built on the top of a slope, it was necessary to use steps to enter and exit, and those figures were perched at the bottom of the stone steps, hiding themselves with a long stone lantern standing there, and secretly went there. The pharmacy on the slope cast a surveillance eye.
In order to see clearly who they were, the young man had to step on the tiles very carefully and walk away. When he was able to see the other person's features clearly, he knelt down and observed quietly. I saw that all three of them were wearing dark dark clothes with round collars, carrying a single sword on their left hand, and wearing high hats and hairpins. It was difficult to tell who was the leader.
After a while, a swordsman with a round face and no beard leaned against the wall lazily, crossed his arms and sighed: "Old Qi, we stayed at the inn all night, and finally saw a suspicious person, why can't we go up and ask? Is it possible that we have to continue waiting here and let Yin Qianchou live happily on his own?"
Another swordsman with small eyes and a goatee turned to face him and replied: "Brother! The master has told us not to say anything, and we must act with caution. Look at the way he is dressed, if the other party is the daughter of a wealthy family, we will I still want to be disrespectful, but that’s a mistake! It’s better to wait a little longer. Maybe, a gust of wind will blow away the cover on the woman’s face, which will save a lot of trouble..."
After the round-faced swordsman heard this, he complained quite a lot. He immediately spit a mouthful of phlegm on the ground and cursed: "How can a boy from the countryside like that command us to do things? I really don't understand what the Lord is thinking. In my opinion, he was a robber before, what nonsense is the 'Golden Desert Sword'! I haven't been afraid of anyone with the thirty-sixth Bagua Sword of the Wang Family!"
"Brother, be careful that the walls have ears!"
"What are you afraid of! Old Seven, look at how embarrassed you are!"
"Two elder brothers!" The third timid swordsman stood in front of the long stone lantern and said in surprise: "Look... look up there!"
The young man who had been peeping on the eaves for a long time also looked around and saw a woman walking slowly down the stairs alone.
"Here we come, she's the only one this time!" the round-faced swordsman said, "Old Qi, you don't need to worry about anything now, right?"
"Um...it's up to you...just don't scare other girls."
At this point, Bai Fengye had already pulled out the sword in his hand. Just waiting for Mei Niang's order, he would jump down and easily subdue at least one swordsman. The round-faced swordsman left the earth wall, pushed away the timid young man standing in front of the stone lantern, and went up to cut off Mei Niang halfway. He said again: "Girl, please go this way."
Seeing him push the scabbard open slightly, Mei Niang followed his instructions and walked to the side alley, followed by two other swordsmen. This scene happened to be right under Bai Feng's nose. As long as those three people had any second thoughts, Bai Feng could immediately stop them.
"It turns out you were the ones following the slave family just now! My family was waiting around just now and didn't dare to pay attention. In fact, the slave family is very interested in people who practice martial arts." After saying this, Mei Niang leaned forward to the round face. The swordsman came forward and put his hand on his left hand that was gently pushing the scabbard, saying that he wanted to play with it.
The round-faced swordsman broke away angrily and said, "Girl, you should know why we are looking for you, right?"
Mei Niang pretended to be confused and shook her head slightly.
"Please take off your hat, girl, so that we can identify the face and confirm whether it is the person we are looking for..."
"This... is not good..." Mei Niang said shyly: "My family is not good-looking, and this hat is really needed to avoid being ugly..."
"You slut, stop talking nonsense to me. Hurry up! Otherwise I'm going to hit you hard!" The swordsman pulled out the big sword with a clang, and Mei Niang took a step back in fright. The two swordsmen behind her also gradually approached, forcing her to scream repeatedly.
"Okay, it's really scary! I'll show you right now..." Mei Niang deliberately opened the gauze curtain on her head slowly, until the round-faced swordsman in front of her was about to see the plum blossom brand in front of her eyes, and suddenly trembled. Shaking his shoulders and shaking his hands at the same time, a thin needle several inches long suddenly appeared in his originally empty field of vision.
With a "clang", the round-faced swordsman raised his sword to protect his face. After he put down the sword, the girl in front of him still did not lift the curtain, but the two companions behind her had already fallen down, and one of them did not know. The young swordsman who came from nowhere suddenly appeared in front of him.
"What...what's going on!" The swordsman exclaimed, and what was waiting for him was the next flying needle sent by Mei Niang, and the fleeting steps of the swordsman beside her. After he blocked another hidden weapon, the young man was already in front of him.
Bai Feng cleverly stabbed the swordsman in the throat with a false pretense. Taking advantage of his panic, he quickly changed his moves and hit his sword-holding wrist, successfully disarming the sword. The swordsman was afraid of Mei Niang's hidden weapon, so he didn't dare to run away, so he had to retreat while fighting. Bai Feng did not relax because the opponent lost his weapon, and continued to press forward step by step. When Mei Niang's next flying needle arrived, he suddenly kicked off and used the earth wall next to him to fly in the direction of the swordsman. He got up and jumped behind the opponent.
The swordsman caught the flying needle, but this also cut off his own escape route. Seeing the fate of his companions, in order to survive, he decided to beg for mercy, and then knelt down and begged: "Auntie, I just made some rude remarks. I beg you, sir, to let me live..."
"Mr. Bai, they are not the Desert Golden Swordsmen, they are just servants. There is no need to take their lives." Mei Niang said to the young man who captured the swordsman.
"Mei Niang, I know this, those two just knocked me unconscious." Bai Feng held the swordsman who kept whining and whining, and said: "I left you the last one. useful."
"Oh? How do you say this?"
"Prince, I heard that you are very dissatisfied with Yin Qianchou?" Bai Feng said, then threw the swordsman to the ground, "How about we make a deal?"
"What...what, what deal?" The round-faced swordsman stared straight at him, as if he saw the hope of life.
Bai Feng said slowly: "I can help Prince Wang get rid of the evil in his heart, but we need Prince Wang to give us a message."
"What words?"
"Just tell that 'Desert Golden Sword' that you found out that Mei Lingshuang was haunting Qingliang Mountain, so you took the other two companions to look for it. As a result, they were ambushed. Those two people died, and only you are left. One of them will come back alive." After Bai Feng said that, he pointed to the two lying swordsmen in the distance, and said: "Your two brothers, please keep them with me first. After the matter is completed, the three of you will How about we all survive?"
The round-faced swordsman nodded repeatedly and said: "I...I will obey your instructions!"
