Chapter 6: Chess pieces
Zhong Xingyue crawled in a piece of broken grass, not daring to move, not even having the courage to pull a rag beside her to wipe the blood stains on the corner of her mouth, she didn't know if the two people who fought were still alive now, in case they were still there, if they wanted to kill her, it would be troublesome.
This cliff was not too high, and the movement caused by the two of them was so great that the four demons and the three brothers of the Zhu family in the distance put down what they were doing and rushed to this side one after another.
With such a strong light, could it be that a treasure was born?
Zhong Xingyue's eyes swept through seven rays of light, and she hurriedly lowered her body a little.
Why did those people come?
She was shocked in her heart, however, not long after the seven rays of light fell, there were screams from the bottom of the cliff, one after another, frightened and desperate...
Zhong Xingyue's hand holding the cloak couldn't help but tremble, and her palms were full of cold sweat.
So fast... and died...
"That little girl, come here. The cold voice seemed to come from hell on earth, and the hot wind of June seemed to freeze under the pressure of this sound, and the temperature around him plummeted, like a cold winter wax moon.
Zhong Xingyue felt an extremely cold gaze fall on her, like a venomous snake.
Oops, found out!
She wrapped the cloak on her body, wiped the blood stains on the corners of her mouth with her sleeve at will, and couldn't hide from it, so she could only bite the bullet...
There were originally many trees between the center of the battle and her, but because of the obscenity of the last two sword qi, the trees turned into debris, Zhong Xingyue stood up and looked forward, and under the hazy moonlight, her vision was unobstructed.
I saw that in an open space in front of me, there were three demons and the corpses of the three brothers of the Zhu family lying horizontally and vertically, these corpses died unusually tragically, almost none of them were complete corpses, an arm in the east and a leg in the west, and the blood spilled was like bursting red berries, and there were mottled blood spots everywhere.
Zhong Xingyue covered her mouth, the scene in front of her was too disgusting, she had never seen it, resisting the urge to vomit, she looked at the man who was leaning on the ground and was looking up at her at this time.
His face was as pale as snow, and the moonlight sprinkled on his face like a beautiful jade carved in ice.
Zhong Xingyue naturally didn't dare to appreciate how good-looking his facial features were, she was full of fear now, a thirteen-year-old girl who had never gone out, seeing so many people dying tragically in the wilderness, it was good that she was not so scared that she couldn't walk.
"Before... Former... "Her voice trembled
"Do you want to live?" the man ignored her reaction, and opened his mouth with the same question
"Yes. Zhong Xingyue hurriedly replied
Who in the world doesn't want to live, this man's question is so strange.
"If you want to live, then take this dagger and stab it into the man's heart. The man raised his hand and pointed across from him
There lay a man about his age, dressed in tattered yellow robes, with his eyes closed and looking dead.
Murder? Zhong Xingyue was startled
She... No one has ever been killed.
The man saw her hesitation, and said, "If you want to live, do as I say, or else..."
His gaze drifted to the position of the three brothers of the Zhu family.
Zhong Xingyue slammed a spirit, no, it can't be like those people, who died and didn't even have a complete corpse!
"I'll go!" she took the dagger from his hand
This dagger is very beautiful, very gorgeous, the scabbard is inlaid with gems of various colors, and the handle is tied with crimson tassels, which is a little heavy in her hand, Zhong Xingyue pulled out the blade, only to feel a flash of cold light, and her palms are also cold.
This dagger was sharper than his father's treasured sword!
"Don't blame me, I'm also here to live, anyway, you're dead, so I'm not afraid to die again, if you can save my life because of this, I think you will definitely go to Elysium in the future, this should be a great merit for you..."She muttered in front of the man's body
"Hurry up!" the man behind him urged in a cold voice
Zhong Xingyue's hand holding the dagger tightened, and she finally glanced at the man apologetically, and her heart was crossed, and she thrust it into his heart.
Between the lightning and flint, two rays of light flashed rapidly, only to hear a scream of "ah" in her ears, and then there was a sharp pain in her shoulder.
Zhong Xingyue looked at all this in front of her in disbelief, she turned out to be just a bait for the man just now.
Just now, when her dagger was about to pierce into the heart of the man under him, he suddenly opened his eyes and woke up, and as he woke up, he slapped a palm on the dagger, and the dagger actually folded back in mid-air, if it wasn't for her quick reaction, it would not just be an extra half an inch deep on her right shoulder at this time.
She almost lost her right arm!
The young man behind him seemed to be waiting for the man to make a move on Zhong Xingyue, and as soon as the man moved, a hidden weapon came out of his hand, which was obviously planned for a long time, and it was nailed straight into the man's heart.
And it was the effect of this hidden weapon that caused the man's strength to shift, so he didn't ask for Zhong Xingyue's life.
It all happened so fast that there wasn't even time to breathe.
Zhong Xingyue fell back and sat on the ground weakly, her face was pale, and her lips were no longer bloody.
After a long time, the pain in her shoulder brought back her thoughts, and she pulled one corner of her cloak, and tore off a long strip of cloth with her teeth, and then bit one end with her teeth, and the other end through her right hand under her armpit, and so on, until the wound was tightened, and she tied a knot in her shoulder.
After doing all this, Zhong Xingyue picked up the dagger on the ground and walked towards the young man step by step.
The man looked at her, his face becoming more and more cold.
He didn't expect that she would be able to survive and not be killed.
"If I'm not mistaken, you're probably exhausted by now!"
If he didn't have exhaustion, he didn't have to calculate himself to kill the man, maybe he wasn't exhausted just now, but after a fight with the man, he killed seven more people, and finally attacked the man with all his might, and now it must be the end of the crossbow.
She Zhong Xingyue will not kill good people, but in the face of this kind of person who calculates herself and treats herself as a chess piece, she will not let go.
There is an old saying that if you cut the grass and don't remove the roots, the spring breeze blows and grows!
If she hadn't killed him while the man was weak now, he would definitely come back and kill himself in the future. Whether it's him, or the man who has died, it's not something that a small person can afford to mess with.
