The swamp was full of water, orioles flew over the shadow of the green mountains, summer trees that were very close to each other lay sideways, and the girl stopped what she was doing beside the lush water.
The man held the knife, aimed at her figure, pulled the reins of the horse, and shouted softly: "Drive!"
The horse ran towards the water.
The man raised his sword: "Hey, girl!"
He was prepared to stab her in the neck when she raised her head.
This girl showed up in a place like this, not just looking for death.
He still had a mission and was too lazy to ask, but he also wanted to prevent the girl from running into something here, so she was hacked to death to prevent her from going out to report the news.
As he shouted, the horse's speed increased.
Sure enough, the girl raised her head and stood up.
"Haha!" He laughed, "Can't you see the knife in my hand?"
As he got closer and closer, he raised his sword and swung it down.
When he raised his sword, a figure flashed in front of him.
The knife fell heavily, making a sharp sound of wind, but the blade failed.
The horse was still moving forward, and he turned back following the figure.
Xia Zhaoyi turned around forcefully, quickly pushed his heels to the ground, and used the force to jump back and avoid the blade.
The horse thief hurriedly pulled the reins and stopped the horse. Before he could turn the horse's head back, a green whip suddenly struck him.
He was hit hard on the back, and he didn't have much strength, but the barbs on the green whip cut through his clothes, scratched his skin and penetrated his flesh, causing severe and sharp pain.
The man reacted conditionedly, raised the knife to block the next blow, and at the same time let go of his reining hand and stroked his burning back.
However, the whip in the girl's hand struck the horse's butt again.
The horse neighed in pain and galloped wildly.
The horse thief was caught off guard and was carried forward, then fell down with one foot still tied to it.
After dragging him for a long distance, the horse thief struggled to break away from the fierce horse and stood up with the knife in his hand. His back was severely bruised and he was trembling in pain.
Holding the knife in both hands, he rushed toward Xia Zhaoyi and shouted angrily: "I'll kill you!"
Xia Zhaoyi grabbed the baggage on the ground, turned around and ran towards the jungle on the other side.
The horse thief's eyes turned red with anger and he chased after him directly.
"Come out!" the horse thief shouted.
As soon as he finished speaking, a branch pierced his chest from the back with a pop.
The branch was too long. When the horse thief turned around, he slightly tore open the branch and did not dare to move rashly.
Turning around with difficulty, I saw a girl hanging upside down on a tall tree behind me, her little hand loosening the other end of the branch from his chest.
The branch was about one foot long, as if it had just been cut. He hadn't heard any movement before, so he stabbed it in one go?
Bright red blood drops dripped down from the end of the sharp branch.
The horse thief stretched out his hand to support himself on the tree nearest to him, and then fell down.
Xia Zhaoyi was still hanging there, her calves tightly wrapped around the branches, and she lowered her hands a little tiredly.
Breathing was not comfortable, so she straightened her waist and sat up, then jumped down from the tree.
I climbed up the tree so quickly that I couldn't even take care of the baggage, which was scattered on the ground.
A small steamed bun rolled out and was stained with a lot of mud.
She patted it, but couldn't get rid of it. She pursed her lower lip and had to reduce the size of the bun a little and stuff it back into the bag.
After all, I was careless. I thought the water quality here was good, so I wanted to take a rest. After all, there were basically no traces of large groups of horse thieves nearby.
However, we will still encounter such lone scouts.
Xia Zhaoyi returned to the original waterside, picked up the wood on the waterside, and looked up in the direction where the frightened horse had left.
I don’t know how long it has to run before it stops. If I go now, will I be able to catch up?
