Xiao Yu was shocked, and he looked at the woman in night clothes in front of him from head to toe again.
But he really couldn't remember when he had seen such a "chivalrous woman" with strong martial arts skills, but those delicate yet spiritual almond-shaped eyes seemed to have a familiar feeling.
Without saying a word, she knelt down and poured the liquid from a small bottle she brought with her onto the body. The body sizzled and began to slowly melt, creating a layer of pungent green smoke.
Xiao Yu was surprised and was about to ask a question when he heard She Quli in the cage beside him ask: "Are you the little prince that the dog mentioned?"
"Exactly." Xiao Yu turned to look at the foreign boy, "Are you really She Quli?"
The Hu man's eyes seemed to dim a bit. He sat in the cage with his arms folded: "I told you, he is dead!"
At this time, the barbarians imprisoned in cages around them had gathered around the cages. Some were watching in surprise as the two corpses melted, while others looked at Xiao Yu and She Quli.
I heard an elderly man on the side scold: "Young men on the grassland don't have the habit of lying! She Quli, how come you have contracted the bad habits of the Southern Dynasty people and started to learn to tell lies?"
The woman who was raped before was wrapped in torn clothes and sobbed: "Aweng, please don't talk about him, he must feel uncomfortable. Good Samaritan, we have heard what you said before, if you really If She Quli comes, take him away!"
"Yes...if you can live, live as long as you can..."
"Please take him away!"
Others also begged for mercy and allowed Xiao Yu to take She Quli away.
Xiao Yu glanced at the woman in black again. She was still squatting there collecting the body and turning a deaf ear to other things.
So he squatted back in front of the iron cage where the foreign boy was. The cage door had just been opened by the "sea-turning dragon".
"She Quli, come with me! I will find a way to rescue them later."
The young man was still stubborn and snorted coldly.
"You are so stupid! Taking me with you is like adding another burden. Do you think I can run like this?"
As he spoke, he shook the chains that locked his hands, and there was a heavy metal clang sound immediately.
"I'm going to find the key."
"Stop wasting your time. I won't go out with you. Even if I die, I will be with my tribe."
"I promise to get you out!"
She Quli shook his head stubbornly: "I appreciate Gou'er's kindness. I am very grateful to him for compiling a beautiful dream for everyone. He did not lie. The young prince kept his promise and really came. We appreciate your kindness. But! She Quli will not let my friends put themselves in danger for me. We really can’t escape if we want to..."
The old man on the side scolded: "You idiot, you will die here, but there is still a chance of survival if you escape!"
"Aweng, the senior officials of the Southern Dynasty promised me, A Gan and my uncles, that they would pick us up when they finish their work."
"You..." The old man was a little angry, with a look of hatred on his face.
"They can't come." Xiao Yu interrupted.
She Quli was stunned for a moment, as were the old man and the barbarians who were listening to them.
"What did you just say?" She Quli looked at Xiao Yu with wide eyes.
"I said you, Agan, can't come!"
Xiao Yu's tone was strong. He didn't know what his expression was like at this time, but he would not be too relaxed when he said this.
She Quli stayed for a moment, and tears began to well up in his eyes.
He climbed to Xiao Yu in a few steps and grabbed Xiao Yu's arm with force.
He repeated again: "What did you just say... What happened to my A Gan..."
Xiao Yu bit his lip: "He is no longer here."
"Little prince, what do you mean when you say that my A-gan...my A-gan is no longer here?"
The foreign boy still had an expression of disbelief on his face, and he shook his head gently.
Xiao Yu nodded vigorously, deliberately avoiding She Quli's sad eyes.
"She Quli, the dog begged me to save you. There was another person who begged me, Uncle Liu Shi, to save a child named She Quli before he died. But my uncle, Liu Shi, was seriously injured and had not recovered, so I came for him. ”
"That She Quli is not me, there must be a mistake."
The foreign boy smiled, but tears kept flowing down his cheeks.
He let go of Xiao Yu's arm, turned around and climbed back into the iron cage.
He murmured: "I don't believe it... I don't believe it... My mother-in-law said that my A-gan will definitely come to pick me up... I have to wait for my A-gan to come back..."
Where is She Quli’s mother-in-law?
Xiao Yu looked at the old barbarian man in the iron cage beside him inquiringly.
The old man sighed: "She Quli's mother-in-law died a few days ago. God bless her. Ayuyi is a good woman, and Qiunaidun is also a goshawk on the grassland. They will watch She Quli from the horizon. .”
The old man said, with tears glistening in his eyes.
He looked up at the night sky, his eyes full of desolation, and began to hum the ancient and sad song of the northern grasslands.
The people around were moved by this, and all men, women, old and young also began to sing softly. Gradually, more and more people began to sing along.
Xiao Yu couldn't understand the lyrics, but the melody of the song was desolate and sad, like an elegy for the deceased, which made people feel depressed after listening to it.
The woman in black, who had already disposed of the two corpses, also stood up at this time. She looked around warily.
But Xiao Yu's mind was not on the potential dangers around him. He looked at She Quli again.
I saw that the young man had hid deep in the iron cage, and most of his body was hidden in the darkness, but his body seemed to have shrunk by half, and his whole body was curled up together.
The desolate song had not yet been sung, but it seemed to have aroused the vigilance of the surrounding guards. The rapid barking of dogs and the rude yelling of men began.
The people in the cage began to panic and retreat deeper into their cages.
At this time, the woman in black walked up to Xiao Yu, and her cold words seemed to be mixed with anger: "He doesn't want to go with you, why do you have to force him!"
Xiao Yu didn't speak. He turned around and looked at the woman in black again.
"Who are you? How do you recognize me?"
"I……"
The woman hesitated to speak, the anxiety in her almond-shaped eyes became more intense, and she looked around anxiously.
"Little prince, come with me. If you don't leave, I'm afraid I'll be in trouble!"
Xiao Yu insisted: "She Quli must come with me and help me find the key!"
"You... are ungrateful! If you don't leave, I will leave on my own!" the woman in black cursed.
"Little prince." The old man just now did not shrink back into the cage, but looked at Xiao Yu calmly, "Today's situation is urgent, please leave quickly! If there is a next time, take She Quli away, my old man will return I want you to take away the children who are imprisoned here. They don’t deserve to die here. They should fly like eagles in the sky. We old bones have lived enough and we are not afraid of them. When the time comes, please ask the young prince to burn us with fire. Just drop it.”
Xiao Yu was startled when he saw the woman in black giving the old man a fierce look with her black and white almond-shaped eyes.
The old man remained unmoved and looked at Xiao Yu firmly. He suddenly glanced aside and said in a deep voice: "Quickly!"
At this time, I saw patches of fire approaching not far away.
A shrill roar pierced the sky.
"Here comes someone! Xiao Maozi is dead! A thief broke in!"
The sound of gongs and drums that invaded by outsiders rose rapidly, deafening like a reminder.
"Go quickly!" the old man urged.
The barbarians imprisoned in iron cages around them also urged them over and over again.
Xiao Yu glanced at She Quli one last time and felt that there were a pair of hateful eyes staring outside in the darkness.
"so troublesome!"
The woman in black cursed, she picked up Xiao Yu and ran outside.
Just now, Xiao Yu's attention was entirely on She Quli and those barbarians.
At this moment, he realized that he had no idea who the woman in black who saved him was.
But now that we have reached this juncture, we can't talk to her here with useless nonsense.
The woman didn't seem to think too much. She walked lightly, dragging Xiao Yu and running like flying.
Suddenly, two guards in the courtyard appeared in front of him, both holding ring-headed knives in their hands.
Under the thin clothes, bulging muscles were faintly visible, and the dust gathered as he moved forward.
They are masters! Xiao Yu thought so in his heart.
At this moment, the woman in black suddenly let go and rushed towards the two men in black like an arrow from a string.
She pulled out a thin sword as soft as a silver snake from her waist and suddenly jumped into the air.
A big man raised his sword to face the enemy and shouted:
"The thief is here..."
But before he could finish his words, a silver thread flashed.
A clear and neat gash was cut on his neck, blood flowed out, and blood spurted out of his mouth.
He couldn't make any other sound and fell to the ground. He choked to death.
Xiao Yu was stunned. Everything happened too fast. He didn't see clearly the way the woman in black killed people. He only saw the woman's shadow suddenly falling and the flash of silver light.
"Who are you!" Another big man asked in astonishment, vigilantly and fearfully.
"You don't deserve to know!"
The woman in black suddenly stood up again, her graceful figure rolling in the air, and in an instant she came to another big man.
Cold sweat broke out on the big man's back and he quickly retreated.
The woman in black chased after him, biting the opponent like a dragon with a long thin sword in her hand.
Not long after, the big man's body had been torn open with many bloody stains, but no vital parts were hurt.
The big man also gradually figured out the way to the woman in black, and he became more and more comfortable with the sword in his hand.
After the initial few rounds of embarrassment, he gradually stabilized his position and actually fought back and forth with the woman in black.
"Who are you? What does Cangshan Snow Sword have to do with you?" the big man asked while fighting back.
The woman in black remained silent. After losing the initial advantage, he and the opponent began to fall into a stalemate.
"You have only scratched the surface, and you are far behind your master. If it weren't for the sneak attack just now, how could Brother Hou be killed so easily by you? Put down your weapons and surrender quickly, and you will be left with a whole body. If not, When my other companions arrive, I will make sure you live and die!"
The woman in black stared, snorted coldly, and still didn't answer.
Xiao Yu looked anxiously on the sidelines. Just as the big man said, someone had already been attracted by the sound of fighting here.
Xiao Yu looked at the dagger in his hand. Although a sneak attack was not done by a gentleman, there is not so much morality in dealing with these inhumane tigers and wolves.
Just as he was thinking of this, he saw the big man flying up and kicking the woman away.
Seeing that the woman's back was about to hit a raised rock on the roadside, Xiao Yu gave up the sneak attack and flew to pick up the woman, and the soft body fell into his arms impartially.
A special and familiar incense suddenly filled Xiao Yu's mouth and nose, and his heart swayed slightly.
Women he knew and were familiar with appeared in his mind like a lantern, but he really couldn't remember who this woman was.
Xiao Yu held the fragrant and soft beauty in his arms, but he was thinking about other things in his mind.
Xiao Yu didn't come back to his senses until the pair of almond eyes on the face covering stared fiercely at him.
"What are you doing!" the woman asked coldly.
Only then did Xiao Yu realize that one of his hands had been rubbing the woman in black's chest. No wonder it felt so comfortable.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yu's face felt hot.
But the other party didn't pay much attention to the behavior of this "disciple". She broke away from Xiao Yu's arm around her and stood up again.
There was light of fire gradually approaching from the distance, and the big man looked proud.
"When you go out, do you bring an oil bottle with you? Is that your husband-in-law or your lover?"
Xiao Yu was naturally unhappy at being so despised, but when it came to fighting alone, he was really no match for the big man in front of him.
But the other party's sarcastic words did not cause much trouble on the woman in black.
She was still extremely fast and stepped forward to continue fighting with the big man.
The sound of gold and iron kept ringing, and the woman's tricks were strange, but the big man didn't look like a righteous man, and there were endless insidious tricks.
Xiao Yu realized that the other party was about to use another dirty move. He waved the ring-shou knife with one hand, and there seemed to be a flash of light in the other hand.
"Be careful! There is something in his other hand!" Xiao Yu shouted.
The woman was slightly startled.
When the big man saw that his plan was exposed, a hint of evil flashed in his eyes. He drove away the woman in black with his knife and was about to go straight to Xiao Yu.
The woman in black screamed: "Run away!"
Xiao Yu was startled and quickly took two steps back.
But the big man's forward body suddenly stopped midway, and he suddenly knelt down on one knee.
In the night sky, two chains shining with dark luster appeared at some point. One chain dragged the big man's leg and made him stumble, and the other chain directly locked the big man's neck, causing him to fall to the edge of suffocation.
The chain creaked and suddenly tightened, and the other end continued to the high wall on the side, where someone was tightening the chain.
The big man threw away the ring knife in his hand and used his hands to untie the chain that was tightening his neck.
A female voice on the wall shouted anxiously: "Hongxiao! Take advantage of now!"
"Red silk..."
Xiao Yu repeated the name blankly, as if he had heard it somewhere.
I saw the woman in black floating into the air again like a ghost, and the extremely fast silver light flashed past.
The big man's head immediately fell from his broad body and lay crookedly on the ground.
She turned back and glanced at the big man's body: "I don't know Cangshan Snow Sword!"
When he raised his head again, the pursuers were right in front of him!
