Xi Zhong nodded, "In this way, it is indeed a bit difficult to do. No matter what, you will die."
The middle-aged man suddenly sighed, "Actually, some of these people who took orders from the bandits are miserable people, because their families were also threatened, but some are stupid people, such as the barefoot man before, who still thought he had hope.
He joins the Nine Blades Hall and becomes the bandit of the Nine Blades Hall who kills people and sets fires and lives happily, but will the people of the Nine Blades Hall let him in in the end? I think he will definitely die without knowing how he died in the end, alas...
"
Xi Zhong remained silent.
The middle-aged man finished speaking and looked at Xi Zhong. His already desperate scarlet eyes gradually became brighter, "Little boy, you said before that you have a plan that can definitely protect my wife and daughter. Don't do it then."
Something went wrong! It's me...I'm kneeling down to beg you!"
When I say this, I really have to kneel down.
This man may have never begged a stranger so lowly in his life, so his words were somewhat blocked.
Xi Zhong supported the man and just said with a smile: "Okay, okay, uncle, don't kneel down. I said I want to protect your wife and daughter, so I can definitely protect you. I will use my own
My life is a guarantee."
Xi Zhong himself lived in Huoshu Village, and bandits were coming tomorrow, so Xi Zhong said that he would guarantee with his life that there would be nothing wrong with him.
Of course, with Xi Zhong's cultivation, let alone protecting the middle-aged man's wife and daughter, he could just go up the mountain and take the pot of Jiudaotang.
The middle-aged man finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Xi Zhong smiled and said: "Then uncle can take the boy into the village, right?"
But at this moment.
The middle-aged man suddenly hesitated, glanced at Xi Zhong, and then gritted his teeth.
He immediately changed his mind and said: "Little boy, you..."
Xi Zhong asked: "What's wrong? Uncle, you have something else to say?"
The middle-aged man actually knelt down with a plop!
Xi Zhong was slightly caught off guard, and wanted to lift him up with his spiritual power, but realized that he could not expose his cultivation for the time being, so he could only let the middle-aged man kneel down.
The middle-aged man changed his mind and said, "Little boy, why don't you just take my daughter away! As for my wife... I guess she won't leave even if I let her go!"
When Xi Zhong heard this, his expression was really weird.
I have already said that I can guarantee that your wife and daughter will be fine!
But uncle, why don’t you still believe me?
Xi Zhong sighed heavily at the end.
never mind.
It seems that this is understandable.
As a middle-aged man like Xi Zhong, faced with such a situation, he really couldn't afford to gamble.
The only thing that can be done is to change his mind and let the young man in green shirt live with his daughter, and then he and his wife will die.
After all, Xi Zhong did nothing, neither revealed his plan nor showed his cultivation skills. After careful consideration, it is normal for a middle-aged man not to believe Xi Zhong.
In fact, Xi Zhong had no plan at all.
Because he was just protecting this middle-aged man’s wife and daughter, how could he need a strategy?
On the other hand, Xi Zhong could just show a little bit of cultivation and kill all the bandits or fight them away, right?
But even if I thought so, it would be impossible to say it to that man.
So Xi Zhong finally nodded, "Okay, since you don't trust me, uncle, tell me how I should take your daughter away?"
When the middle-aged man saw Xi Zhong nodding, he quickly stood up regardless of the despair in his heart, "Then wait here for a while! I will bring my daughter over right now!"
Xi Zhong was helpless, you haven't said how to take her away yet! You actually entrusted your daughter to me like this?
However, Xi Zhong still smiled and nodded, "Uncle, please don't disturb other people in the village, otherwise I will have to return to Mingyue Village in advance to reply to the order."
The middle-aged man nodded and ran towards Huoshu Village.
Looking at the middle-aged man's panicked figure as if fleeing, Xi Zhong actually felt very heavy in his heart.
This man looks very simple and honest, but in fact, he is very shrewd in his heart.
However, if such a seemingly honest but shrewd man can directly entrust his daughter to a young man whom he has only met once, and who can only have a slight affection for the words "Mingyue Village" at most, what will he face?
How serious is the situation?
Maybe this middle-aged man knew it well, and he just handed his daughter over to the young man in green shirt. It is very likely that the outcome will be very bad, because in the end, the young man in green shirt may know people and faces but not the heart.
The bad guy.
In the end, isn't your daughter going to be buried in the hands of this young man in green shirt?
But...it seems that no matter how bad it is, it can't get much worse...
If it fell into the hands of those bandits, it goes without saying what happened to the middle-aged man's daughter. The middle-aged man must have seen it with his own eyes. It seems that no woman who was tortured by those bandits could survive safely.
of.
If it falls into the hands of the young man in green shirt in front of me, no matter how bad the ending is, how much worse can it be? And at least this young man in green shirt is not bad looking. Compared with those vulgar and evil bandits, the ending will undoubtedly be much better.
too much.
Compared with those ugly and ferocious bandits who can use any means, this young man in green shirt is simply much better.
Maybe in this middle-aged man's mind, he is placing a bet on his daughter!
A bet to survive!
On the bandits' side, death is inevitable!
But the boy in blue shirt is very likely to be able to survive!
How pathetic does that sound?
And this kind of sadness is not unique here.
In this world of cultivating immortals, in places that Xi Zhong has not touched, this kind of tragedy happens every day, and it is even more cruel than what happens here.
Xi Zhong felt suddenly depressed.
Immediately he shook his head again, shaking away the depression in his heart.
Now that I happen to encounter these things, I can just solve them easily. For me, it is nothing more than moving a few fingers.
For Huoshu Village, it is definitely a good thing. Although he cannot prevent this situation from happening, he can draw his sword and take action when he sees this situation.
Now, Xi Zhong will not want to find out the truth of the matter, because the truth seems to have emerged, and the bandits of Jiudaotang are really the villains.
Since he is a villain, Xi Zhong must eradicate him.
Who makes Xi Zhong himself a useless protagonist?
Xi Zhong paused quietly for a while.
The middle-aged man hasn't appeared yet.
Just when Xi Zhong was about to leave for the Huoshu Village not far away to find out.
The figure of the middle-aged man appeared on the path in the distance.
Behind him was a girl who was thin but extremely graceful.
The girl's clothes were somewhat ragged, her figure was thin, her cheeks were dirty, as if she had deliberately made her little face dirty and unattractive, and her hair was slightly withered and messy.
Looks very much like a little beggar.
However, Xi Zhong discovered that this girl's eyes were extremely bright and dazzling.
Just by looking at her eyes, one can tell that the appearance of this poor girl is not much different.
No wonder the former head of Jiu Dao Hall coveted this girl so much and just wanted her to become his wife voluntarily.
The head of the Nine Blades Hall, should he be the kind of person who holds hope for so-called "love"?
A bit funny.
If it were Xi Zhong who was the bandit, he would have snatched him away forcefully.
The girl looked very pitiful, with some remaining tears hanging from her eyes.
Maybe he was saying goodbye to his mother before?
Or did you know that you were going to die a long time ago?
Or is this girl ignorant and just thinks that she should just leave her parents for a while?
The girl was brought to Xi Zhong by the middle-aged man. She did not cry or fuss, but there were still tears on her face.
The middle-aged man hurriedly handed his daughter's hand to Xi Zhong, and at the same time held Xi Zhong's hand tightly with both hands, his voice trembled, "I am just such a daughter, I hope you can treat her kindly, little one, then I will be in Jiuquan."
I can laugh every time."
Xi Zhong held the hand of this girl whose height could only barely reach his chest and said with a smile: "Uncle, don't worry. Although I am not very capable, I can definitely protect a little girl."
In fact, Xi Zhong had no intention of taking this girl with him.
It's just that now the middle-aged man doesn't trust him and won't let him enter the village, so he can only cooperate with this middle-aged man in this way.
The middle-aged man said quickly: "That's good, that's good..."
I don’t know whether I believe it or not.
Xi Zhong didn't care.
Because he had no intention of taking this girl away from here.
Xi Zhong blew a whistle gently.
A horse galloped from a distance.
The middle-aged man forced a smile and said, "When I first saw this horse, I thought it was a good horse! Sure enough! This horse is also very humane."
Xi Zhong helped the girl onto the horse's back, patted the horse's head, and said with a smile: "Well, uncle, you have good eyesight. Although I just bought it, it is very smart and it can be regarded as my little friend."
The middle-aged man nodded, not intending to waste any more time, and quickly gave way.
Xi Zhong led his horse past.
The girl on the horse may be riding a horse for the first time, but her eyes are empty and silent, as if she is used to despair.
How does this look like the expression a girl should have?
In Xi Zhong's previous life, a girl of this age grew up peacefully under the protection of her parents. She didn't have to worry about food and clothing. Her parents even gave her a lot of pocket money, allowing her to buy whatever she wanted.
Buy whatever you want to wear.
But in this world, most children probably live in an extremely desperate environment.
