Feng Jiuer screamed and covered her face with her hands. She would rather have her hands bitten than have her face hurt!
However, the expected pain did not come, and the snake did not jump to her body.
A gust of cold air passed through, and the smell of blood instantly spread in the air.
The smell of blood...
Feng Jiuer blinked and slowly took his hands away from his eyes.
What caught his eye was Jian Yi, who was holding a long sword. There was still a little blood on the tip of the sword. Looking further away, the poisonous snake fell to the ground, and its long body had been chopped into several sections.
It was really dangerous just now, she thought she would definitely be bitten.
Unexpectedly, Jian Yi actually saved himself, but isn't he afraid of snakes?
Jiuer breathed a sigh of relief and looked up at the man standing in front of him: "You...why aren't you afraid?"
"I didn't say I wasn't afraid." However, when he saw the venomous snake rushing towards her just now, he suddenly remembered the time he chopped up the snake in the cave.
So he raised his sword and cut the poisonous snake into several pieces in one stroke.
From the looks of it, it seems that killing a snake is not that difficult, it's just a swing of a long sword.
When I was a child, I had no abilities and was bullied by a poisonous snake, which almost killed me.
So he has always been afraid, and will be afraid whenever he sees a snake.
But he forgot that he had grown up, and now he was capable enough to deal with those things, not only to protect himself, but also to save others!
Suddenly, Jianyi felt that the corpses of the poisonous snakes lying on the ground were not so scary anymore.
He even walked over, raised the tip of his sword, and flew the snake's head away. In the blink of an eye, it disappeared.
As soon as he put away the long sword, he returned to Feng Jiu'er and looked down at her: "How are you? Why don't you come out? I don't know how many venomous snakes there are in there."
This time, it was Feng Jiuer's turn to be frightened and wanted to get out of the sunken grass immediately.
But her ankles...
Jiuer bit her lip and put her hands on the ground. She tried her best to climb up with both hands without asking Jianyi for help.
However, now that he has no martial arts and no inner strength, he even has less strength.
Using only my hands, I couldn't climb up no matter what.
Suddenly, someone's big palm fell on her arm.
He just gently lifted Feng Jiu'er's whole body up from the grass and landed lightly on the ground.
"What's wrong with the foot?" If he hadn't seen sweat on her forehead and pale face, he wouldn't have known that this girl had hurt her foot.
"It was twisted just now." She took a deep breath. The moment her feet landed on the ground, the pain of the sprained ankle made her gasp.
When she almost fell, Jianyi helped her.
Looking at her feet, they were indeed quite swollen.
"Sit down and let me show you."
"No need!" What if he suddenly gets a whim and chops off her feet too?
"I can perform acupuncture myself, no need..."
"It's getting late. If you don't go down, go to the village. There may be many venomous snakes and beasts here at night."
Jian Yi didn't mean to scare her with his words, he was telling the truth.
After the sun went down, the faint sound of wolves howling began to be heard in the distance.
Feng Jiuer shrank slightly, the mountain wind suddenly became cold.
Jianyi glanced down, and the candlelight in the village began to light up.
The sky is getting darker and darker, and if I don't walk, I can't even see the mountain road clearly.
He suddenly shook his clothes and squatted down in front of Feng Jiu'er.
"What to do?" Jiu'er was always a little wary of him. After all, he had a purpose for her.
"Come up, I'll carry you down." Jian Yi said calmly.
Feng Jiuer was a little hesitant, but she glanced around and saw that the increasingly cold night made her dare not continue to struggle.
She put her hands on Jian Yi's shoulders, finally pounced forward and lay on his back.
Jianyi picked her up and immediately walked down the mountain.
Jiu'er had many things on her mind. After walking for a short distance, her eyes were locked on Jian Yi's neck.
Less than two fingers away from her fingers was the main artery in his neck.
If he were stabbed here with a needle, he would definitely die.
As long as he is dead, no one will cut off his hand...
I don't know when the silver needle fell into her hand, but she didn't insert it immediately. Instead, she stared at his side face, trying to distract him by talking.
"When did you start being a killer? Is there no one else in the family?"
Jian Yi seemed to be stunned for a moment, and he didn't know if it was because his thoughts were lost in memories or something else. In short, he didn't speak for a long time.
Feng Jiuer didn't dare to act rashly. He was a killer and was very sensitive to the smell of danger.
If you can't draw his attention first, you may not be able to succeed by yourself.
She may only have one chance, and if she fails, her right hand will be cut off immediately.
Feng Jiuer had absolute reason to believe that as long as Jian Yi knew her malice towards him, he would no longer have any pity for her.
But what does that little pity mean? He is always unwilling to let her go!
The so-called pity is the difference between taking action now and taking action later.
Jian Yi still carried her on his back and walked in the night. He didn't know how long it had passed before he said: "I am an orphan. I have never seen my family since I was sensible."
Feng Jiuer's heart felt slightly sour... Orphan, another name for loneliness.
"Then why do you want to be a killer?" Her eyes were still staring at his neck, where a blood vessel was beating, which was the door to his life and death.
Jian Yi said calmly: "When I was a child, I had no food to eat, so I had to go to the streets as a beggar. I was bullied all the time. Later..."
He glanced at the sky and seemed to remember something, and the breath all over his body became a bit colder.
"Later, I accidentally bumped into a bully on the street. He beat me and tried to cut off my legs. I resisted vigorously, but accidentally killed him by mistake."
"Afterwards, a stranger came to me and asked me to help him kill a bad guy who bullied his daughter, and he gave me money..."
"So, that was the first time you killed someone for money, and after that success, you embarked on the road of being a killer?"
Jiu'er lowered his eyes, not expecting to hear such a sad thing.
But now, how can she be sad? How can she be soft-hearted?
This is a matter of your own destiny!
If he insists on hurting her, either he will die or she will die!
At this time, you must not be soft-hearted!
Jian Yi didn't seem to notice anything strange, he said calmly: "That's pretty much it."
"Then you have martial arts skills..."
"Self-taught."
She marveled, this man is really a talent!
But the silver needle at her fingertips is ready to go. At this time, she can no longer hesitate.
"If you were given a chance to fulfill your wish, what would you do in this life?"
Feng Jiuer's fingers holding the silver needle slowly approached the artery in Jianyi's neck...
