Lin Xiaoyue counted the money very slowly. She slowly took the 10,000-tael banknote from the man's face. The man's pupils tightened and the sword in his hand began to loosen.
The tingling sensation on her neck disappeared instantly, and Lin Xiaoyue was secretly delighted. She shook the banknote in her hand and continued: "Did you see it? As long as you nod, I will give it to you right away!"
The man stretched out his hand and said, "Give it to me! I will let you go!"
Lin Xiaoyue would not completely believe it. She took out half of the banknote and said: "I will give you half first. You send me to a safe place, and I will give you the rest!"
The man asked alertly: "Where?"
Lin Xiaoyue pointed in the direction of the city gate and said, "I want to leave the city, just take me to the city gate."
The man didn't believe it and still didn't put down the sword in his hand. He continued to ask: "You won't save your friend?"
Lin Xiaoyue said with certainty: "Help, I'll go out of the city to find reinforcements! Don't worry, I won't turn you in!"
The man hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Then give me the money! I'll take you there."
Lin Xiaoyue readily put half of the banknote in the man's hand and said, "Let's go! If you don't leave, someone will catch up with you!"
When the man saw that he had received the banknote and that Lin Xiaoyue was here to help, he did not embarrass Lin Xiaoyue anymore. He put down his sword and turned around to leave, "Thank you, girl!"
"Emperor Liang is very cunning. Never act alone again in the future! What do you want me to do if something unexpected happens?" Liang Jingyao knocked Lin Xiaoyue on the head angrily and distressedly.
Liang Jingyao was a little puzzled, where did the little boy and girl come from? Don't be trapped by someone and unable to come back!
Xue Shichang looked down at the fan and asked excitedly: "Do you recognize this fan? Are you the Liang Jingyao that Miss Lin Xiaoyue said?"
At the gate of the city, Liang Jingyao saw hundreds of people coming in force. He looked carefully and did not see Lin Xiaoyue and Gu Mian.
Liang Jingyao nodded and said: "I will just lead a group of people, you go and do your work!"
Liang Jingyao ordered a group of people from the Cheetah Army and was about to set off when the person he was longing for appeared in front of him!
"Yue'er! You are so brave! Who told you to point your sword at Yue'er's neck!" Liang Jingyao drew his sword anxiously and wanted to kill the man who was holding Lin Xiaoyue.
While talking, Lin Xiaoyue had already brought Liang Jingyao back to the outside of the ruined temple, "Brother Liang, look, there's a fight over there!"
Liang Jingyao still couldn't figure it out, so he pulled Lin Xiaoyue and asked, "What are you doing? Are you going to pick someone up? Why are you trying to save A Mian again? What happened?"
Halfway through, Liang Jingyao did not forget to remind Lin Xiaoyue and asked: "You haven't said what happened to you guys?"
"Jing Yao, be careful, these people have hidden weapons! Damn it, I've been hit several times!" Gu Mian cursed depressedly.
Liang Jingyao looked back at Zhan Hu and told Zhan Hu: "Give them to Chen Hu and let them train with the Cheetah Army. They should also eat and live with the Cheetah Army!"
Lin Xiaoyue relaxed her neck and said to Liang Jingyao, who was confused, "Why are you standing there so stupidly? Let's go and save Mr. Gu!"
Zhanhu said worriedly: "Master, can these people keep up with the intensity of the Cheetah Army's training? Don't scare them away before even a day of training!"
Liang Jingyao had no choice but to wave to the people behind him and said, "Follow me quickly!"
He sent Lin Xiaoyue to the tree and warned, "Sit here and don't move! I'll pick you up after I've dealt with those odds and ends!"
Liang Jingyao took the fan and opened it, and found that the fan indeed belonged to Gu Mian because it had Gu Mian's handwriting and his seal on it.
Lin Xiaoyue knew that Liang Jingyao was afraid of her running around, so she hugged the thick branch and nodded repeatedly: "Yes! Brother Liang, don't worry!"
Lin Xiaoyue was afraid that Liang Jingyao would be angry, so she said evasively: "Master Gu and I found a spy. In order not to alert the snake, we went to the temple first. Sure enough, that was the spy's lair! Therefore, the more than 200 people we recruited had to be carefully investigated.
But, maybe there are spies mixed in."
Liang Jingyao was a little confused. He felt that Lin Xiaoyue had said a lot of things, such as how the spy was discovered? Where did he recruit the people?
But he was about to reach the ruined temple, and saving people was more important now. He planned to go back and ask Lin Xiaoyue again.
Liang Jingyao has also seen the fighting scene. Gu Mian was almost surrounded and beaten. It is not easy to survive until now!
Liang Jingyao jumped down from the tree, drew his sword and shouted: "Ah Mian, I'm here to save you! Come on, everyone, kill them all!"
Twelve Cheetahs followed Liang Jingyao and rushed towards the fighting crowd. When Gu Mian saw Liang Jingyao coming, his body that almost couldn't hold on felt like it had been injected with chicken blood, and the sword in his hand gained strength again!
Zhan Hu asked with concern: "Do you need to call the brothers to go with you?"
Liang Jingyao waved his hand and said: "Then let Chen Hu watch the training. I have to go see Yue'er and A Mian. It's so dark, why haven't you come back yet?"
The man became nervous, and the sword in his hand moved closer to Lin Xiaoyue's neck, "Girl, you have to keep your word! Otherwise, my sword won't have eyes!"
He felt a little upset and wanted to get Lin Xiaoyue back immediately! But before leaving, he had to arrange the hundreds of people, "Have you all eaten?"
So, a group of twelve Cheetahs followed Lin Xiaoyue and Liang Jingyao and walked towards the ruined temple.
With that said, he led more than two hundred people to find Chen Hu.
Xue Shichang pointed in the direction of the ruined temple and said: "They took a little boy to the ruined temple to pick up a little girl and said they would be back soon."
The man stuffed the banknotes into his arms, grabbed Lin Xiaoyue's arm with one hand, put a sword against her neck with the other, and pushed and pulled her towards the city gate.
Xue Shichang shook his head and said: "Not yet."
Lin Xiaoyue calmly stuffed the remaining half of the banknotes and said: "Why did I lie to you? Put down the sword!"
Zhanhu clasped his fists and responded: "Yes! Master!"
Suddenly, Liang Jingyao's eyes fell on the folding fan in Xue Shichang's hand, and he frowned and asked, "Where did you get this fan?"
Lin Xiaoyue was anxious and pulled Liang Jingyao towards the ruined temple. "It's too late. I'll explain to you on the way! Hurry up!"
"Yes, it's me! Where are Yue'er and A Mian? Where have they gone?"
When Liang Jingyao faced these spies, he found that their martial arts were very powerful. Gu Mian's ability to hold on until now was already the limit!
While he was killing, he approached Gu Mian and said, "Follow me closely! I will protect you!"
Gu Mian moved closer to Liang Jingyao, and the two of them defended each other one after another, making their lethality even stronger!
Although there were several hidden weapons raids during this period, they were all blocked by Liang Jingyao and Gu Mian. In the end, most of the spies were killed, leaving only a short man.
Gu Mian watched the man lose his temper and cursed bitterly: "Jing Yao, that's the dwarf! If he hadn't lied to us by pretending to be a child, we wouldn't have been fooled!"
