"You are such a despicable person. You can't even beat a woman. How can you be a gentleman?"
Diao Xue was so angry that she cursed a few times, and then coughed a few times due to the smoke. She tried to break out of the encirclement, but the enemy surrounded her at all angles.
"You are right, I am a villain, not a gentleman!"
Hu Baxian laughed lewdly.
Since the weather was relatively dry and the house was basically made of straw, the fire burned quickly. Diao Xue thought that she could not break out and might be buried here, so she closed her eyes and stopped talking.
Hu Baxian valued Diao Xue's beauty and did not really want to kill Diao Xue. Seeing that the other party suddenly stopped talking, he immediately panicked and quickly scolded the bandits not to throw torches again.
When Yu Yi walked out of the lake west of Daoxiang Village, he saw the corpses of villagers all the way, some of which were very miserable. This only increased his worry. Not knowing how Diao Xue was doing, he used all his strength to rush to her residence. When they were about to arrive, they discovered that the house was on fire and that a group of bandits were surrounding them with torches.
Without thinking, Yu Yi took out his halberd, came around from the side, and hit some bandits with a halberd. Since the bandits were unprepared, Yu Yi attacked from behind, and he was quickly knocked down. .
When Diao Xue heard the cry of bandits outside, she immediately became energetic and asked quickly, who were they?
After hearing the sound, Yu Yi realized that Diao Xue was still alive, and hurriedly shouted: "I am Yu Yi, come out quickly!"
Diao Xue was overjoyed when she heard the sound. She didn't expect that at this critical moment, the person who saved her would be Yu Yi, whom she thought about day and night. She immediately found the direction of Yu Yi, found a wet sheet, and rushed out. In this way, Yu Yi and Diao Xue are side by side.
"Hmph, I didn't expect there to be people alive in Daoxiang Village!"
Hu Baxian looked at his fallen men, then at Yu Yi standing in front of him, and rolled his eyes.
"You are such a sly person. Are you from Qingshui Village? Why did you massacre the villagers of Daoxiang Village!"
Yu Yi protected Diao Xue behind him, raised his halberd with his right hand and pointed it at Hu Baxian.
"What a snarky person, I am one of the best people in Qingshui Village. I advise you to leave as soon as possible, otherwise we will not be polite!"
Hu Baxian saw that Diao Xue had been rescued and his fellow bandits were dead. Seeing the other party's strength and unwilling to leave easily, Hu Baxian wanted to test the other party with words.
"It seems you don't know. Qinghe was ambushed by us in the back mountain. Su Daqiang and Zhang Daniu have been exposed. I think you may not be able to leave if you don't leave!"
Yuyi knew Hu Baxian's intentions, so he treated him as a human being. He expected that the other party must not know the situation in the back mountain, so he made the lie more specific.
At this time, a bandit walked up to Hu Baxian and whispered a few words. He saw his eyes widening with an expression of disbelief. Then he shook his head. He looked at Yuyi and smiled slightly: "What's your name?" Yuyi, my name is Hu Baxian, you Zhang Daniu fell into my hands, I believe you will be next!"
"Haha, if I have a chance in the future, I will find a way to carry it to you, okay?"
Yu Yi put his hands on his hips and laughed loudly, which made the bandit very confused.
"Hmph, let's go!"
Hu Baxian stared at Yuyi for a few seconds and then ordered the bandits to retreat.
Watching the bandits go away, Yu Yi breathed a sigh of relief and finally collapsed on the ground.
"Are you okay? They have an advantage in numbers. Why did they suddenly retreat?"
Diao Xue stepped forward to help Yu Yi and asked.
"It should be the messenger just now. The destruction of the underground palace should have caused the loss of all the elite troops in Qinghe. They are now eager to go back and restore their strength!"
Yu Yi slowly stood up with Diao Xue's support.
"The underground palace is destroyed!"
Diao Xue knew about the underground palace. It was the location where the "Dunjia Heavenly Book" was stored. It was the top secret of Daoxiang Village. Her father would occasionally mention it to her. Now that it was destroyed, Diao Xue couldn't believe it for a moment.
"Yeah, a lot of things happened in just one day. Let's find a place to stay first, and I'll tell you slowly!"
Yuyi felt very tired at this time and had not eaten, so he suggested finding a place to sit and talk slowly.
Diao Xue also felt Yu Yi's state and kept supporting him silently, but her sixth sense told him that things might not be that simple and something serious might have happened.
In this way, the two of them arrived at the inn. They could see corpses along the way. Those were all living villagers who had suffered such a tragic fate. Diao Xue found some dry food from the inn kitchen and brought some white wine and put it on the table. When Yu Yi saw the food, he immediately started to eat it.
"Originally, the master took us to the Houshan Underground Palace to get the "Dunjia Heavenly Book". Unexpectedly, Su Daqiang suddenly attacked the master from behind, followed by Zhang Daniu, severely injuring the master!"
Yuyi took a few mouthfuls of dry food and then began to recall the nightmarish story.
"Who is Su Daqiang? Why did Zhang Daniu betray him?"
Diao Xue was confused, but when she heard that her father was attacked, she became anxious.
"Su Daqiang is Su Qiang's real name. He is the second in charge of Qingshui Village in Bagong Mountain. As for Zhang Daniu, because he was jealous of me and wanted you too much, he signed a contract with the other party to help attack Daoxiang Village and then take possession of you. !”
Yuyi smiled slightly.
"Hmph, this big bull is really whimsical. I really misjudged him. He actually attacked my father!"
When Diao Xue heard this section, she suddenly burst into tears.
"Yeah, I didn't expect him to be this kind of person, but later Qinghe asked me to surrender and killed Zhang Daniu!"
Yu Yi sighed. At first, he really hated Zhang Daniu's betrayal, but after seeing his head cut off on the spot, he felt that he was actually very pitiful.
When she heard that Zhang Daniu was beheaded, Diao Xue felt like she was on a roller coaster. However, after the sadness, she was also a little happy, thinking that nothing could stop her and Yu Yi anymore.
"We were driven into the underground palace by Qinghe's elite troops. The master bought us a lot of time through the underground palace's mechanism, but in the end we met them in the main secret room. In order to save us, the master opened the mechanism again... .”
Yu Yi went on to say that Diao Ruxiao's injury was actually within a controllable range, but he did not come out because he felt that the underground palace was his final destination.
"Father!"
From feeling a little scared at first, to finally realizing that her father had passed away, Diao Xue finally couldn't help crying.
Yu Yi sighed, and when he was about to stand up and walk, he found that Diao Xue was already leaning on his shoulder, which was soaked with tears. He thought it would be better to let Diao Xue cry for a while, that would make him feel better.
