Just when the sharp blade was about to pierce Ma Beichen's back, he probably felt that the groom's submissiveness was disappointing.
Just as he was about to turn around and get on the carriage, he stumbled suddenly. The coachman quickly helped his young master with his eyes and hands.
"Master, little——"
Before I could say the word "心", I heard a "puff" sound.
The sharp blade half an arm's length was driven into the horse's back.
The sudden stinging pain startled the horse. ??
With four hooves raised, the horse and the cart suddenly rushed out.
The two masters and servants who were affected fell to the ground at once.
"What's going on?"
The two of them seemed stunned, staring blankly at the carriage that disappeared in front of them.
Then, only a few "swish" sounds were heard, and several figures fell around the master and servant.
"Who are you? What are you going to do?"
Ma Beichen shrank back, but still had the courage to ask.
But the black shadow didn't want to talk nonsense with him, so he stabbed him with a knife.
"Oh my god, I killed someone!"
Ma Beichen was so frightened that he peed his pants and rolled on the spot, barely avoiding the incoming blade.
But the shoulder was still torn.
"ah--"
He howled harder than a pig being killed, and couldn't get up, so he could only roll on the ground.
Taking advantage of the darkness of the night, although those people came well prepared, they were greatly restricted.
Despite this, in just a few moves, Ma Beichen's whole body was covered in a lot of damage.
"Master! Master!"
The groom was ignored, but he bravely protected his master. He spotted the gap and pounced on his young master to protect him.
The two of them were rolling around like this in embarrassment, but their fists were unable to defeat the four hands, and they were about to be killed. At this time, they heard an angry scream coming from the other side of the road.
"If you dare to take action on my territory, I'm afraid you will get tired of living! Brothers, come on!"
The voice sounded a bit youthful, but because of the headwind and the movement, it was difficult to distinguish between male and female.
The men in black who besieged Ma Beichen were stunned for a moment, but they stepped up their movements.
Ma Beichen was also sick and rushed to the doctor. He immediately shouted at the top of his lungs.
"Hero! This hero! Please save me! Save me!"
In an instant, another group of people rushed out of the forest.
They immediately had the upper hand in terms of numbers. With their addition, the pressure on Ma Beichen's side was greatly reduced.
"I asked, are you still alive?"
Lying on the ground, with less air coming in and more air coming out, a figure appeared in Ma Beichen's sight.
The man had his face covered and was wearing a large cloak. It was hard to see clearly in the night. r> Ma Beichen didn't dare to move because he rolled so hard just now that his whole body seemed to fall apart. He could only raise his head hard to look up at the face of his savior.
It's a pity that his benefactor didn't give him this chance.
"I'm alive. I'm very grateful to my benefactor for saving me. I'll never forget it. I'll definitely be rewarded heavily in the future."
Unexpectedly, the benefactor knelt down, took the riding crop, and gently scratched his face.
Ma Beichen's face suddenly turned pale.
"Well, benefactor, this is what you are"
"Didn't your family call you? How should you repay your life-saving grace?"
Ma Beichen suddenly panicked.
Judging from the benefactor's figure and voice, he should be a man.
Even if the other party is a woman, she must be a manly woman with a bold and unrestrained style.
He, he doesn't like him, right?
Suddenly, Ma Beichen trembled and fell to the ground in fear.
"The benefactor"
"I have a sister in my family. Everything else is good. She is just a bit ugly and has a bad temper. Don't worry, I will protect you from now on. I will never let you die like my three brothers-in-law.
.In this case, can you come back with me and become my brother-in-law?"
Now, Ma Beichen was shaking even more violently and almost cried.
"Heroes can't do that! Marriage can't be a trivial matter. It's better to wait until I tell my parents."
"Don't forget, I saved you. I advise you to think about it carefully. This is my territory. If you don't think well, I will make it impossible for you to leave!"
The benefactor became a little impatient, got up and walked in the direction of his men.
At this moment, Ma Beichen, who was paralyzed on the ground and looked like a coward, quietly sneered.
What kind of person is he? How can a bandit be worthy of him?
The two people moved little by little to the shadow of the forest. Finally, they stood up quickly and quietly and disappeared into the dense forest.
On this side, the benefactor was "seriously" watching his men fight, but a ghostly figure appeared beside him.
"Girl, they escaped."
Qinghu glanced at Lin Zi with a bit of disdain in his eyes.
"Let's just go. Remember to take a few people with you in and out of the city in the past few days to put on a show and do a full set."
The person who almost "forced a girl into prostitution" just now was none other than Lin Mengya, who had put on a disguise.
They had just arrived, so in order to avoid exposing herself, she came up with such a bad idea.
Turn a purposeful rescue into a battle with bandits.
Only in this way can Ma Beichen avoid being suspicious for the time being.
"Don't worry, starting from tomorrow, everyone in Feiye City will know that there is a group of 'robbers' who have been entrenched near Yuelao Temple for a long time."
She nodded, she was relieved to leave this kind of matter to Qinghu.
On the other side, the people who had just besieged Ma Beichen were fighting and retreating. When they were about to lose their support, the leader whistled, and the black shadows immediately scattered in all directions, desperately trying to run into the woods.
"Don't chase!"
She immediately stopped herself.
Those people who dared to take action here must have been familiar with the terrain for a long time.
Although the people she brought were highly skilled in martial arts, apart from the away battle, it was too dark tonight and you could hardly see anything when entering the woods, doubling the risk index.
"It's a pity that no one was caught alive."
Qinghu felt a little regretful and said as he looked at the corpses scattered on the ground.
Lin Mengya felt the same way, but after all, she couldn't waste the lives of her subordinates.
But who would have thought that as soon as she thought about it, she saw a person flying straight to her feet.
That's right, it's flying.
Apparently, he was kicked away by someone.
So the man held his stomach and looked straight in the direction he came from, staring.
It seems unbelievable that he was clearly well hidden, but how could he be discovered by others?
At this time, the forest made a "swishing" sound.
A man walked out slowly into the night, his slender figure carrying a chilly look.
He walked up to her step by step without looking at the guy on the ground who was almost kicked to death by him.
"He is the leader among them."
He spat out a sentence slowly, but it was enough to make Lin Mengya ecstatic.
She immediately hugged his arm, her bright eyes full of admiration.
"You are great! Sir, may I ask why you are so outstanding?"
Before rushing in, Lin Mengya blocked Long Tianyu out because she didn't want to cause trouble.
But she didn't expect this guy to sneak into the forest at some point and give her such a big surprise.
"Don't make trouble."
Although it was a reprimand, it was obviously not very strong, but it was obvious that Long Tianyu still felt the compliment to her.
"Yes, yes, come here, push him back!"
With this living mouth, she didn't have to worry about having no means to make this man tell the truth.
Someone immediately came out and picked up the unconscious leader.
Lin Mengya looked around at this moment, as if she was looking for someone.
"Qingrou is already dead, over there .”
Long Tianyu knew what she was thinking and gave a gentle reminder.
already dead?
Lin Mengya, who felt a little pity, walked in the direction pointed by Long Tianyu.
At this time, Qingrou had become a cold corpse.
But her eyes were still wide open, as if her resentment had not gone away.
It's a pity that Qingrou can never seek justice for herself.
"This kind of woman is so stupid that if she dies now, there is nothing to feel sorry for."
Qinghu especially hates people like Qingrou who have no brains and are being taken advantage of without realizing it.
It has nothing to do with gender, the main thing is that he hates stupid people.
"This was all her own choice. Naturally, it has nothing to do with anyone else. But I'm afraid she didn't know why her lover suddenly turned against her before she died."
She didn't have any unnecessary thoughts about Qingrou's fate, but she could not help but feel a little sad.
We are all adults and must be responsible for our own choices.
She squatted down and examined Qingrou's body carefully, trying to find any clues about the fifth brother being bewitched.
Qingrou's fatal wound was on her chest. Until she died, she still held the tassel tightly in her hand. No matter how hard Lin Mengya tried, she couldn't pry Qingrou's hand away.
At present, the fifth brother's poison can only be spread through sexual intercourse.
But she turned over Qingrou's sleeves and found that the girl's palace sand was still bright red.
This shows that she is not like the fifth brother.
Could it be that she wasn't the one who cast the poison?
"Okay, don't think about it anymore. I'll transport it back to you, and you can take a good look at it. It's getting late, so we should go back."
Qinghu greeted Lin Mengya, who also felt that this was the truth and nodded in agreement.
Qinghu summoned two people to carry Qingrou's body, but unexpectedly, the hands that could not be broken apart now relaxed.
Lin Mengya, who had been standing nearby, felt as if something fell from her hand.
She immediately knelt down to search and finally found a small cloth bag for her.
The small cloth bag is as big as the belly of your finger, is triangular in shape, and is wrapped in red cloth. It looks like an amulet or something.
She looked over it several times, but couldn't see any mystery.
"Let's go, it's time for you to go back to Gong's house."
Long Tianyu also walked forward. At this time, his men had moved all the corpses away, and the place was almost done.
"Um."
She held the small cloth bag in her hand, and she didn't know why Qingrou's hand would loosen her grip. She thought there was something unfair, and she hoped she could avenge Qingrou.
