Lin Jiao pushed Xiao Jiu'an out, deliberately leaving behind three killers in black.
How could the three killers in black miss such a good opportunity? They immediately gave up on Xiao Jiuan and headed towards Lin Jiao to kill him.
Lin Jiao wanted this result. She sneered, turned around strangely, and then three silver needles flew out from her hand. The three black-clothed killers had to dodge in order to avoid her hidden weapon, giving Lin Jiao the opportunity to attack.
Chance.
Unexpectedly, she rolled in the snow, picked up Xiao Jiuan's sword and threw it directly towards one of the black-clad killers. The sword was just a cover, the real killing move was the silver needle that flew out with the sword.
The black-clothed killer only saw a cold sword with a cold light flying towards him. He subconsciously swung the sword away with the weapon in his hand. Then he felt a pain in his wrist, and a silver needle with a blue light pierced his wrist.
on his wrist.
The killer in black didn't even have time to think before he fell to the ground.
Xiao Jiuan took a look, picked up a knife next to him, walked over unsteadily and wiped the other person's neck.
There were also two killers that Lin Jiao had knocked down with hidden weapons before. He knew that the silver needle in Lin Jiao's hand was obtained from Song Jingmo, and that Song Jingmo gave the poison to them. It could only paralyze the person's nerves, but could not kill the opponent.
Lin Jiao is not like him. She has beaten many people along the way, but she won't kill them if she can.
But he's not.
After wiping the necks of the remaining people, Xiao Jiuan took out a brown pill and put it into his mouth. Dragging the blood-stained knife, he walked step by step in the direction of Lin Jiao and the two killers in black.
How could he put his Jiaojiao in danger alone?
"Ding"
Another silver needle flew out and grazed the black-clothed killer's neck. Lin Jiao completely angered him.
"court death."
The killer rushed towards Lin Jiao desperately.
The opponent's speed was too fast, and it was too late for Lin Jiao to dodge. "Pfft" was heard as the tip of the sword sank into the flesh, but the expected pain did not come.
Lin Jiao's waist was tightly held in Xiao Jiu'an's arms. He used his other hand to break off the sword on his chest, pulled it out and stuck it on the other person's neck. Then a stream of hot water sprayed on Lin Jiao's face.
The killer leader was killed by Xiao Jiuan with one blow.
"Xiao Jiuan!"
Lin Jiao saw Xiao Jiuan falling and rushed over to catch him, but she was a step too late.
She watched Xiao Jiuan's slender body fall into the snow, and the blood spurting out of his chest seemed to dye the entire snow red.
The remaining killer, who had been seriously injured, immediately ran away when he saw Lin Jiao going to pick up Xiao Jiuan.
Lin Jiao had no time to chase the killer now. She had to find a way to stop Xiao Jiu'an's bleeding first, but when she saw the wound on Xiao Jiu'an's chest, she realized that the blood flowing out of his chest was all black.
Xiao Jiuan was poisoned.
Lin Jiao was confused. Xiao Jiuan was injured in the chest and was poisoned. He didn't know if his heart was hurt. There was no doctor like Song Jingmo here at this time. Lin Jiao's only way to save him was to drag him into the space and soak him in it.
In the spiritual spring.
Now Lin Jiao no longer thinks about whether the secret of space will be exposed.
After Xiao Jiuan entered the spiritual spring, the blood on the wound did not flow as much as before, but black blood still flowed out from time to time.
Fortunately, Xiao Jiu'an's face looked much better, and his thin lips were not as purple as before. Apart from being a little pale, it seemed that his life was no longer in danger.
The wounds on Xiao Jiuan's body were slowly healing, but a few drops of black blood would still flow out from the wound on his chest from time to time.
Lin Jiao guessed that the Lingquan water was detoxifying him. She walked not far away, took off her cotton-padded jacket, and entered the Lingquan in unlined clothes.
She also had several wounds on her body. Lin Jiao didn't soak for a long time. After the wounds on her body healed, she went out and changed into dry clothes, and then went to get some rice and make some food.
After she finished eating, seeing that Xiao Jiuan hadn't woken up yet, Lin Jiao left the space first.
She couldn't let Xiao Jiuan stay in the space all the time. She had to find a place that could protect him from the wind and snow before he woke up.
After coming out of the space, Lin Jiao made sure that there was no danger around her, so she walked directly over to Qiu Qiu and touched the black-clothed killers all over. This time she only found more than two hundred taels of silver notes.
"unlucky."
These people are really poor.
After putting away the banknote, Lin Jiao left.
It's been so long, the ship must have left.
Lin Jiao paid attention to the situation in the space as she walked, but she still went to the ferry.
Manager Wang's boat had already left. Lin Jiao lowered her hat and looked around the crowd. She walked to the nearest boat and asked about it.
Today there are no ships going to Qinzhou. Except for one cargo ship, the remaining three ships at the ferry are all going to Yaozhou.
Lin Jiao thought for a while, then chose a boat and squeezed in.
Manager Wang has said that there may be a big snowstorm in the next two days, so he will cross the river for the time being.
If you stay here, there won't even be a place to shelter from the wind and snow. When you get to Yaozhou, you can still find a small courtyard or an inn to settle down first.
And she didn't dare to go find Jiang and the others now. One of those people had escaped and might come again.
Now go to Yaozhou first and wait until Xiao Jiuan wakes up.
Yaozhou is not far from Qinzhou and can be reached in two days.
Lin Jiao paid the money and quickly got on the boat. She asked for a room with hot water and two quilts from the people on the boat.
After entering the room, Lin Jiao closed the door, put the quilt away, and entered the space.
She noticed that the blood on Xiao Jiuan's chest had turned bright red, and his face had become a lot rosier. His chest was slowly healing.
Lin Jiao didn't dare to let his wounds heal completely, so she quickly took him out of the spiritual spring, wiped him clean and threw him on the bed in the room.
Then she took a clean cloth and bandaged his wound. After taking good care of Xiao Jiuan, Lin Jiao breathed a sigh of relief. She spread the quilt she had brought in earlier on the floor beside the bed and lay down on it.
She didn't dare to sleep, but lying like this was more comfortable than sitting.
It's getting a little dark outside now.
Lin Jiao lay down for a while, then got up and lit a lamp, then touched Xiao Jiuan's forehead. Xiao Jiuan's body temperature was normal and his face was rosy, but he still didn't wake up.
To go to Yaozhou, the boat has to sail on the river all night.
Lin Jiao was lying on the carpet covered with quilts. She didn't feel anything in the first half of the night, but she felt a little cold in the second half of the night.
After a while, Lin Jiao heard a noise coming from outside, and then someone knocked on her door.
"Sir, it's snowing heavily now and our ship will be forced to dock. The steward asked us to inform each guest to pack their things quickly and get off the ship as soon as possible after the ship docks."
"Disembark now?"
Lin Jiao frowned.
The man on the boat nodded, "The steward said that the snow is too heavy and the river will definitely freeze. The boat must dock. We must leave as soon as possible. If the snow is too heavy and we can't live on the boat, we will freeze to death."
Lin Jiao took out a piece of silver and put it in the waiter's hand.
"Wait for me, I'll get something, and then you take me to your manager."
The boy looked at the silver ingot in his hand and felt happy, "The young one is waiting for you here, but you have to hurry up."
"Um."
Lin Jiao closed the door, walked to the bedside, threw the unconscious Xiao Jiuan into the space, and threw the two quilts into the space, then quickly went out and followed the man to find the steward on the ship.
