Chapter 251: Good Things Have to Be Shared
Xiao Jingchen's voice came from above his head, and Su Qing turned his head suddenly, not thinking about the distance between the two, and hit his forehead on his chin.
Both of them were in pain, one covered their heads and the other covered their chins, and they couldn't help but smile when they looked at each other.
"They don't seem to have a lot of people, why don't you just do it?" Su Qing still has some understanding of Xiao Jingchen's style of doing things.
With his combat power, it is not difficult to sweep away this place with three strikes and five divisions, is it because she is here today?
"These people are a bit weird, it's easy to do it directly, but I want to arrest them and interrogate them properly. β
Su Qing nodded and didn't say anything, the patrolling little Luo Luo came towards them, she shrank back and leaned closer to Xiao Jingchen's arms.
At this moment, several people suddenly came up from the bottom of the mountain, and as soon as they appeared, the people who had been drinking stood up.
"These ordinary people are getting better and better, and today they only brought one back, and they are still poor beggars, and they are useless. β
The voices of those people came clearly, and a person was tied hand and foot and thrown on the ground at will, and Su Qing stretched his neck suddenly.
Isn't that the old witch doctor?
"We've searched all the towns around here, and we'll change places when the weather gets warmer. β
"No, have you forgotten that we are going to stay in this place, otherwise how can we get the news? But we can't stay in an old place for a long time, if we are discovered by that war king......"
Hearing the familiar name, Su Qing pricked up his ears, but his eyes fell on the old witch doctor.
He lay motionless on the ground as if he had been knocked unconscious, still wearing the same tattered clothes and a wine jug around his waist.
"What if you find out? Although he said that he was a prince, he was not expelled by the royal family, and I heard that he returned to the capital this year, and was kicked out again in a few months, which is really pitiful. β
"So what? People are just a prince, and they don't have to hide all day like us. β
The men gathered around and said a few words and were ready to go back to rest, and before leaving, they seemed to remember to catch the man again.
"Lock him up, I heard that he seems to be a doctor, and it might be useful to stay with us. β
The camp quickly quieted down, and Su Qing knew that Xiao Jingchen and them should make a move next, and vaguely she only saw a few black shadows slipping into those tents.
After a while, a faint smell of blood permeated.
Xiao Jingchen had been by her side and had not participated, but it could be seen that his nerves were tense, and his eyes were staring around.
"Helpβ" Suddenly a scream broke the silence of the night, and countless torches lit up in the camp in an instant, and everyone was awake.
A torch lit up above their heads, and Xiao Jingchen suppressed Su Qing and tried his best to hide in the dark.
But someone still came to me: "There is ...... here"
Before he finished speaking, a silver needle pierced his throat, and he could only fall down weakly with his eyes wide open.
Xiao Jingchen hadn't made a move yet, he lowered his head and saw Su Qing's calm expression, and there was a hint of silver-white luster between the wrists raised, it was her hand crossbow.
A mountain bandit fell and immediately after several people ran over in unison, Xiao Jingchen no longer hesitated, and quickly swept over and killed him.
And Su Qing continued to stay in the shadows and used the crossbow in his hand to cover Xiao Jingchen.
Several torches fell to the ground at the same time, surrounded by a lot of dry straw, and soon a raging flame burst into flames.
The bandits in the camp were already in chaos: "It's the king of war! The king of war is coming! Run, brothers!"
The leaders who were still there just now were also flustered, and in a panic, they couldn't even find a way to escape.
Taking advantage of this time, Su Qing went to find a small broken tent where the old witch doctor was kept.
There was a fire around, and the tent was easy to burn, and the old witch doctor fell to the ground unconscious, and Su Qing frowned and dragged the person out.
Then he took a medicine from his bosom and fed it to his mouth.
"There is someone here, there is a female ...... here" Su Qing frowned and picked up a weapon that he didn't know who dropped it, and quickly sealed his throat with a sword.
These bandits seem to know that they can't escape, and they plan to fight them to the death.
When Xiao Jingchen turned back, he found that Su Qing was no longer in the place before, and his heart tightened, and he immediately flew up and jumped to a high place.
At a glance, I saw Su Qing, who was guarding the old witch doctor behind her and fighting with the mountain bandits, she looked calm, she raised her knife and killed decisively, and no mountain bandit could get close to her.
Xiao Jingchen immediately flew over and took Su Qing and the old witch doctor to a safe place.
"Lord Wang, these mountain bandit leaders have been caught, what should we do with the rest?" Xiao Jue's voice sounded high, meaning that they had won this battle again.
Su Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and when she heard the old witch doctor coughing, she hurriedly squatted down: "Senior, senior, wake up." β
"Why are you again?" the old witch doctor opened his eyes and coughed for a while before stopping, looking at the situation around him, he didn't seem to be scared at all, but there was a bit of disgust in his tone.
Su Qing was a little helpless to resist the urge to roll her eyes: "I rescued you from the fire just now, otherwise you wouldn't have seen me." β
"So, I thank you so much for saving your life?" said the old witch doctor as he propped himself up on the ground, his body shaking and barely standing still.
As soon as he stood firm, he reached for the flask on his waist and poured it hard.
Su Qing was a little skeptical now, just now when she saw the old witch doctor, she was knocked unconscious or she was drunk.
"Xiao Jue, escort the princess and this old gentleman back to the inn first, and take the rest of the people down, and remember to put out the fire. β
The fire here is not small, and if you accidentally cause a wildfire, it can be a big problem.
Their mission was completed very smoothly this time, and Su Qing followed them down the mountain and took the old witch doctor to their inn.
The innkeeper saw that these people were more or less bloodstained, and their faces turned white with fright.
"Those bandits on the mountain have been destroyed by the king of war, and from now on you can open the door and do business again. The old witch doctor shook the flask at the shopkeeper: "Fetch me a jug of wine." β
"Really, those bandits have really been caught?" the shopkeeper's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly stepped forward and took the flask with both hands.
Xiao Jue nodded on the side, before they could say it themselves, the credit was told by the old man first.
"Even the camp was set on fire, don't worry. β
"Great, thank God, it's good that the war king came forward, otherwise we really don't know when this day will be the end, I'll go and inform the big guy!"
The shopkeeper's excited face turned red, and the inn, which had been deserted and barely popular, instantly became lively.
