After all, in their ranks, there were more than a dozen maids alone.

If you can return the safety of everyone by sacrificing just a few subordinates, it is still quite worthwhile in Liu Xie's opinion.

However, before giving a formal reply, Liu Xie has another important question that needs to be clarified:

How did these five women come about?

If it was up to Liu Xie's side to decide, then he would be able to agree to the other party on the spot.

But if it's up to the other party to choose, it's more troublesome.

What if the thief happens to choose his concubine?

Therefore, for the sake of prudence, Liu Xie still called Fu Wan to his side and whispered in his ear:

"Lord Fu, you first ask them, who chose the woman? We'll reply later! ”

"Whoa." After nodding his head, Fu Wan relayed the question to the brown-faced man outside the door.

Soon, I heard the other party chuckle and replied:

"Hehe, do you still need to ask? Of course we chose! Otherwise, what use will we use if you leave us the old, the weak, the sick and the sick? ”

As the saying goes, whatever you are afraid of, as soon as you hear that the other party will choose it, Liu Xie immediately frowned.

Picking out five out of thirty women doesn't sound like a big deal.

But if you think about it carefully, once you take into account factors such as age, figure, and appearance, the chances of Concubine Xi being selected will be greatly improved.

Not to mention picking five, even if you only pick one or two, the concubine with outstanding appearance is likely to be selected by the other party.

Therefore, in order to keep his beloved concubine, Liu Xie chose to reject the other party after thinking twice.

"Humph! Toast without eating and eating penalty wine! ”

After listening to the other party's reply, the brown-faced man's tone outside the door instantly became cold, and he pointed to Fu Wan and shouted twice:

"I'll ask you one last time, do you really agree to this?"

"I'm sorry, we really can't agree to this matter, and I hope that the hero will change the ......"

But before he could finish speaking, he was ruthlessly interrupted by the brown-faced man:

"Impossible! This is already our minimum requirement. Since you don't agree, then don't blame me for being ruthless! ”

At this point, I saw the brown-faced man suddenly turn his head and shout at the thief behind him:

"Archers out of line, ready to shoot!"

At the sound of an order, ten thieves armed with bows and arrows quickly came to the front of the team.

Under the command of the brown-faced man, he knelt on one knee, drew his bow and arrows, and pointed the arrows at everyone in the room.

Seeing this scene, the air in the house instantly condensed.

Including the thirty soldiers, everyone subconsciously stepped back, their eyes flashing with fear and panic.

"Holy Lord, do you want to ...... You—Would you think about it again? ”

Commander Zhang, who was standing in front of Liu Xie, persuaded with a worried face as he retreated:

"Although their conditions ...... It's a little hard to accept, but it's better than all of us dying here, right? ”

"Commander Zhang is right!" Sun Shaofu, who was not far away, also chimed in:

"It doesn't matter if a few of us die, but you are the saint of today, and the entire Han family is pinned on you. If it was for a few women to fall here, it would be really ...... Alas! ”

"That's right! Let's hope that the saint will think twice and accept the other party's conditions......"

Under the deterrence of dozens of bows and arrows, many courtiers jumped out.

I hope that Liu Xie can agree to the other party's conditions and not make "meaningless" sacrifices.

But even so, Liu Xie still did not let go.

Holding Concubine Xi's little hand tightly, she quickly stepped back, her eyes full of stubbornness.

Seeing this scene, the brown-faced man immediately sneered, waved his big hand, and issued the first military order:

"Group 1...... Shoot the arrows! ”

As soon as these words came out, the five soldiers standing on the left side released their right hand at the same time.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh......

With a burst of breaking sound, five sharp arrows arrived in an instant.

All but one missed the other four, which were all stabbed on the soldiers in the front row.

Although these arrows either hit the arm or the leg, none of them were fatal, but they still aroused a bright red blood and a bitter wail.

For a moment, the entire hall was enveloped in an aura of death and fear.

After seeing the soldiers fall to the ground and bleed, Liu Xie's expression also quietly changed.

He just stiffened his mouth, and his eyes unconsciously flashed with fear.

It is no exaggeration to say that at this moment, he finally felt the approach of death.

After capturing this change, he knew that the opportunity had come, and came to Liu Xie's side for the first time, and opened his mouth to say:

"Holy Lord, if we continue like this, we will all die here. Even if you don't think about yourself, please think about the world! Quickly take back your fate and agree to the other party's conditions! ”

"But, but...... If she agrees, Concubine Xi, she ......" Liu Xie was still entangled.

"Alas! This is easy to do, wait for us to change the Xi Guiren into ugly clothes, and then find an opportunity to make her face dirty and try to hide her beauty as much as possible. In this way, the probability of her being selected will be greatly reduced. As long as the saint agrees, the old man will go to prepare for this! ”

After hearing this, Liu Xie was really moved.

But before making a final decision, Liu Xie also wanted to hear Concubine Xi's opinion again.

After all, Concubine Xi is the party to this incident.

If she didn't agree, Liu Xie would definitely force the other party to put himself at risk.

"Concubine Xi, that, that...... Did you hear what Lord Fu said? Do you think this is feasible? If you don't agree, the widow will never agree to it! ”

Looking at Liu Xie's embarrassed expression, Concubine Xi first sighed secretly.

It was so hard for a teenager to make such a difficult decision, and he couldn't help but feel a trace of pity in his heart.

But as far as this matter is concerned, to be honest, Concubine Xi definitely doesn't want Liu Xie to agree.

Because with her appearance, no matter how much she applies it, it is still easy to be discovered.

If she hadn't taken into account the situation at hand, she wouldn't have agreed to it.

However, judging from the current situation, if they don't agree to the other party, it will be really difficult for Liu Xie and them to escape from here.

Although Concubine Xi was born in special forces, she has good skills.

But first, she didn't want to expose her abilities in front of everyone so quickly;

Second, she didn't dare to guarantee that she could rescue Liu Xie safely by herself.

So frankly speaking, Concubine Xi didn't want to have a head-on conflict with the thieves at this moment.

If you don't want to go head-to-head with the thieves, and you don't want your own army to be wiped out, then there is only one way to negotiate.

Although the conditions of the other party are somewhat "harsh", looking at the overall situation, this is already the smallest loss.

And taking a step back, even if you are unlucky, it is not a big deal to be really chosen by the other party.

Because with Concubine Xi's skills and ability, it is not a matter of minutes to get out of trouble?

As long as she leaves this place, how can she really be trapped with a few thieves?

So after thinking about it a few times, Concubine Xi made a decision.
