"..." Yuan Xi was speechless and didn't know how to answer.
"You are going to kill that woman to vent your anger, but have you ever thought about the consequences of killing that woman? Do you think you can hide here safely with your ability? Do you think you can be pretty with your ability?
How cleverly can you approach the Japanese pirates' military tent without being discovered? In fact, you have already fallen into the Japanese pirates' trap. They just want to use your hands to get rid of the people they don't want to see."
Yuan Xi and Ruan Xi looked at each other, but neither of them understood the meaning of Xia Shang's words.
"I didn't go to kill that woman at all, but to save that woman! It's a pity that it was a step too late..."
Yuan Xi and Ruan Xi became more and more confused as they listened. They wanted to ask but didn't know how to ask.
Xia Shang also knew their doubts and put down the woman he had been carrying on his back: "She is the woman you want to kill."
With the extremely weak firelight, brother and sister Yuan Xi could see Jizi's pale face clearly, and they also clearly saw Jizi's current situation, but they didn't know each other and were a little confused for a while.
"Is this the woman from Japan? The target we have been looking for?"
Xia Shang nodded.
Ruan Xi moved closer curiously and whispered: "It doesn't look much different from us."
"Before you took action, she was already dead, but she was poisoned by Japanese pirates."
"Poisoned to death by Japanese pirates?"
This sentence immediately caught everyone's heart. This was the most critical part of the whole thing. Everyone thought that Xia Shang and Xue Lengxiang killed this woman. How could she be poisoned by Japanese pirates?
"How could a Japanese pirate poison his own people? And such an important person?"
"Because they originally wanted this woman to die. Because this woman died, the Japanese pirates had sufficient reason to persuade the larger forces in the Japanese country to attack Dahua in an all-round way."
This sentence contained a lot of information. Seeing the confused looks on the faces of the people around him, Xia Shang began to tell them the story about Ji Zi.
Yoshiko's story didn't take much time, but everyone looked at each other in shock after hearing it.
Such a story is too bizarre, and everyone lacks basic trust in the Japanese people, especially the bandit who followed him. After being deceived by the Japanese people, his first reaction when hearing such a story was that it was fake.
But Xia Shang had already made a judgment in his mind. When he saw Jizi lying on the bed
In front of herself, it became clearer that she had not deceived anyone.
Not only did Xia Shang believe it, but even Xue Lengxiang, who distrusted Ji Zi the most, began to have a new judgment after experiencing this journey.
The master and the leader believed in a woman at the same time, which made Ruan Xi and Yuan Xi shaken and began to worry about what would happen next.
"If the Japanese pirates really want to use this woman's death to trigger a bigger war, what should we do? Aren't we becoming scapegoats, and no explanation will be useful?"
Xia Shang was relatively calm: "Don't worry, if everything goes well, she will be alive within two days."
"Survived in two days?"
These words shocked everyone. Seeing that the woman in front of them was completely dead, how could she survive?
The people who followed the Yuan Xi brothers and sisters knew that Xia Shang was a bit awe-inspiring and believed that he had some abilities, but when they heard what he said, they couldn't help but look down upon him, thinking that he was an incompetent person who could only brag.
But Yuan Xi and Ruan Xi are very aware of Xia Shang's abilities. Since the leader said so, it proves that the leader can really do it.
When you think about it, it's a bit incredible. Is this young leader actually powerful enough to resurrect the dead?
However, now is not the time to think about this.
The bandit who came down said that there would be a large-scale search later, and he had to go back immediately to deal with it. He asked Xia Shang and others to feel aggrieved down below, and after the news passed, everyone went to the tent to rest.
After the bandits left, the tunnel became much quieter. After the exchange just now, we all got to know each other better.
Someone wanted to persuade Xia Shang and Xue Lengxiang to join their team in order to kill more Japanese pirates.
Xia Shang ignored it and didn't know how to persuade such a group of people who were so blinded by their passion.
But Xia Shang found that there were far fewer of them than before. Looking at their weather-beaten looks, Xia Shang felt a little impressed but also a little helpless.
Time passes little by little, and we don’t know what is going on outside. We don’t know the passage of time under the tunnel. This is a very difficult process.
"We've probably been here for an hour, right? We haven't stayed this long a few times before. What's going on outside?"
Someone in the tunnel couldn't hold it any longer and asked in a low voice.
The people around me can’t give it either
In one reply, the person at the back suggested: "Would you like me to go over and listen to what's going on outside?"
No one had any objections, and the people in the tunnel began to return along the tunnel.
When they arrived at the entrance of the tunnel, the people in front leaned against the wooden board above to listen to what was going on outside. They listened for a long time, and then turned around and said to everyone: "Something is wrong outside. It seems that someone is screaming..."
"Did something really happen?"
"It shouldn't be. We've been hiding it for many days without any problems."
As soon as he finished speaking, the wooden board above his head was suddenly lifted, and before the person in front of him could react, a knife penetrated his head.
"It's a Japanese pirate! Go back quickly! Go back quickly!"
The people in front were shouting. Xia Shang and Xue Lengxiang were at the back of the team. The people in front were retreating, forcing Xia Shang and others to follow suit.
Because the tunnel was too narrow and there was no way to move around, Xia Shang could only move along with the flow of people.
There were sounds of fighting in front, and it seemed that several Japanese pirates had jumped in.
Seeing that the situation had changed, Xue Lengxiang wanted to squeeze to the front, but found that she couldn't squeeze out at all. Even if she squeezed out, she couldn't move her hands or feet in such a small space.
The situation ahead is unclear, but Xia Shang has been forced to the deepest part of the tunnel, and there is no road ahead.
"We can't retreat, it's the end!" Yuan Xi shouted.
"What should we do now?"
"Can you hold on!"
"Don't worry, it's just a few Japanese pirates, they can withstand it!"
The people in front seemed to have killed several Japanese pirates, and they were very energetic at the moment, and it seemed that no Japanese pirates came down from the top again.
Just when everyone was relaxing, a pile of smoky hay suddenly fell from above, and soon the smoke poured into the depths of the tunnel.
"It's over, the stupid Japanese pirates set a fire. They want to suffocate us to death!"
"No, the space here is so small, we can't last even a quarter of an hour!"
"I have no choice but to rush out and fight them."
"We can't rush out like this. The Japanese pirates are waiting at the entrance. If we go in like this one by one, we will be slaughtered like pigs."
"I can't advance or retreat. Is it possible that I'm waiting to die here?"
Everyone was in chaos now, and Xia Shang suddenly said: "You all get out of the way, let's open a way out from here."
