First, the companion who suddenly appeared is not bad
On the border between Western Xia and the Kingdom of Jin, in a place called Wild Wolf Valley, Ji Yu was stopped by five masked men and asked her to leave the money to buy the road.
Ji Yu had already finished the valuable things on his body, and he couldn't even eat at this time, so where was the money for them. So, she arched her hand and tried to learn the man's voice and said, "Guys, don't be embarrassed for me to call Hanako, I'm so poor that I only have this ragged clothes left, where is the money for you?" Why don't you wait a few days, wait for me to go to the town in front of me to beg for food, and when I get the money, come back and pay respects? ”
The big man at the head laughed: "Are you a three-year-old child when you are Uncle Ben?" Let you go, can you come back? Well, since you said you were so poor that you were left with this garment. Then take off your clothes and keep us for the time being. How about you wait until you get the money and come back to redeem it? ”
Standing to his right, a short and fat man with a whistle stick clasped between his teeth with his hand, and then said in a strange manner: "Yes, this is the first sale today, and you must always be auspicious, and you can't let you go without leaving anything." Your clothes are a little torn, but they are also an object. Gentlemen are talking, you leave your clothes, and we will let you go! ”
"yes, take it off!" The other three grinned and slowly gathered around.
Ji Yu saw that this posture was wrong, so he quickly turned his head and ran away.
But she has been hungry for several days in a row, and she can barely make do with walking, and this sudden increase in the amount of exercise, how can her thin little body be able to eat. As soon as she ran a few dozen steps, she felt that her limbs were weak and her eyes were full of stars, and she staggered forward a few steps before she fell to the ground unconscious.
When she awoke again, she found herself lying in a grove, her hands and feet held down, and a thin, monkey-like man was grinning and splashing water on her face to wash away the dirt she had smeared on it for disguise. Humpty Dumpty, who spoke in a weird manner, stood aside, with a pair of thief eyes that were not bad intentions, aiming at her.
It seems that this place is very remote, because these people did not cover her mouth and let her shout loudly, and the louder she shouted, the harder they laughed, until ...... They saw her true face, the face of the country and the city.
The five of them were not calm at all.
Almost at the same time, they attacked their "friends", and the five of them soon fought together, and no one would give in, fighting from the forest to the outside of the forest, and from the outside of the forest back to the forest, and finally even using weapons, even at the cost of killing moves.
The skinny monkey just now was the first to be kicked out of the game. He was stabbed twice in the shoulder, and he was kicked in the head, and although he was not killed, he was literally dizzy, and he crawled under a small tree, motionless.
"Brothers, you can't hurt your peace for a woman, right? Why don't I count to three, and how about we all take a step back? Humpty Dumpty was already sweating on his forehead and didn't want to fight anymore.
Good! All three agreed at the same time.
One, two, three!
As soon as the words fell, the left palms of the other three people struck out at the same time, shaking Humpty Dumpty into the air.
"You dead fat man talk a lot of nonsense, if you don't have to see what this little girl looks like, will our brothers have a big fight? Wouldn't it be in the order of the draw? The leader of the big man used the long sword in his hand to separate the two pen knives that attacked in front of him, and then leaned backwards and jumped out of the battle circle, not wanting to fight with them again.
But the remaining two refused to let him go, flew to catch up, and slashed the steel knife in their hands again. Moreover, these two people, one attacked the road and the other played the plate, and they actually had a tacit understanding.
"What do you want to do?" The leader was a little annoyed, and shouted, "Do you have to fight to the death?" I'm not going to fight with you. ”
"Joke, who doesn't know that you Meng Sanjian is notoriously ruthless. Today, I still tear my face, how can I be good. If you talk about fighting alone, our brothers, where is your opponent. Now, I can't help it! ”
Meng Sanjian couldn't, so he had to cheer up and continue the fierce battle with the two.
Because it was already a fight for their lives, gradually, the three of them were covered with color, and blood was dripping.
Ji Yu had already sat up, but because she didn't have the strength on her body, and these people were fighting so fiercely, she didn't dare to run, and she didn't even dare to make extra movements, so she had to lean her body against the small tree behind her, watching them fight coldly, hoping that they would die together.
In the end, Meng Sanjian won, of course, the injury was not light. He tore a few pieces of cloth from the clothes of the two "friends before his death", bandaged the top of his body briefly, and then walked towards Ji Yu, staggering.
During this time, although Ji Yu also saw a lot of dead people, he was still frightened when he looked at Meng Sanjian, who was covered in blood and had a hideous face, carrying a long sword, and walking towards him step by step, and he didn't even have the courage to stand up and run away.
"It's you, the red face and the trouble, I lost my four brothers for nothing, look how I ......clean up for a while" Before he finished speaking, Meng Sanjian's face suddenly showed a strange expression, his body leaned forward, and then, with a plop, he fell to the ground without a sound. The long sword was also taken out of his hand in an instant, thrown forward, and pierced into the grass beside Ji Yu.
In the woods, it was quiet all of a sudden, and Ji Yu could even hear the sound of his own heartbeat, fluttering.
After waiting for a while, Ji Yu saw that no one was coming, so he mustered up the courage to stand up, pulled out his long sword, and then walked in front of Meng Sanjian to see what was going on.
Meng Sanjian was already dead, with three flying knives stuck in his back, apparently just after being attacked.
Ji Yu was shocked, and hurriedly looked forward, and saw Humpty Dumpty, who was also lying motionless on the ground, but with his right hand high. Come to think of it, these three flying knives were his last blows before he died.
They are really ruthless people, and they refuse to let others go when they die.
Ji Yu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, but at the same time, he was also glad that if it weren't for their infighting, his bleak end could be imagined.
A cool breeze blew, and Ji Yu couldn't help but shiver. Only then did she realize that she didn't know when, there were a few more big holes in her coat, and she was no longer clothed.
Ji Yu thought of the skinny monkey, and his clothes should be able to wear them himself. So, with her long sword, she walked over, stripped off his clothes, and put them on herself.
Maybe she was too excited, anxious to change her clothes, and her movements were a little savage, but she actually woke him up again, and struggled to catch her, but she was slashed with a sword and completely died.
These people had dry food and water on them, and after Ji Yu turned them out, he was so happy that he ate so much that he almost died.
Then, exhausted, she actually fell asleep against a small tree.
When she woke up again, there was another strange man in front of her. This person's face is like the moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the color is like the flower of spring dawn, the sideburns are like a knife, the eyebrows are like ink paintings, he wears a green gauze horn turban, two white jade circles with beaded sideburns behind his head, he is wearing a single-collar green Luo Tuanhua robe, a double-tailed turtle back silver belt is tied around his waist, and he is also holding a folding paper Xichuan fan in his hand, just like a rich boy's dress.
Could it be that when I was asleep, I was taken to the downtown again?
Ji Yu subconsciously grabbed the sword on the side, but didn't find it. Frightened by this, she was completely sleepy, and quickly opened her eyes wide, and quickly swept around, and found that she was still in the woods, and only then did she feel a little relieved.
It's just that how could such a rich boy come to such a deserted place.
Ji Yu was confused in his heart, and covered his hands in front of him, staring at the other party with a hostile gaze.
Seeing her like this, the man couldn't help but laugh dumbly, he stretched out his hand and pointed behind Ji Yu: "I said, this young lady, you are really careless." Those villains are not dead yet, and you dare to sleep here. ”
Ji Yu turned his head to look, and saw that Humpty Dumpty was kneeling more than a foot behind her, holding a pen knife in his right hand, obviously trying to sneak up on him from behind. However, at this time, although his eyes were wide open, he was already bleeding to death from seven orifices, and his body was already stiff.
"Little girl Ji Yu, thank you for saving your life here", Ji Yu Bingxue was smart, of course she saw who killed the fat man, so she turned her head and gave a salute to the son in front of her, "But I don't know why I came here?" ”
"A little thing, not enough to worry about, Miss Ji doesn't need to be polite. Zao Wou-Ki, a young student, brought his friends to play here not long ago, but he encountered thieves, was separated from his partner, and came here", Zao Wou-Ki hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "I don't think Miss Ji is very human, I don't know why she fell to such a point?" ”
Of course, Ji Yu won't answer truthfully, so he casually made up a story to prevaricate the past. Although there are many loopholes, this Zhao Gongzi also listens to it with relish, and even sighs from time to time as the storyline changes, and the two of them have a good chat.
Neither of them was in a hurry at this time, so they rested in the grove for the night. Zao Wou-Ki also temporarily built a small shed for Ji Yu on top of a relatively thick tree, which moved her a lot.
When he woke up the next morning, Ji Yu suddenly found that the five corpses were gone, so he asked Zao Wou-ki. Zao Wou-Ki smiled, this place was sparsely populated, and it was easy to attract wild beasts when the corpses were exposed, so he dragged them all to a distance and buried them.
Unexpectedly, this well-mannered boy and brother can do things neatly. Ji Yu wanted to help him dust off his body, but found that his clothes were so clean that he couldn't even find the traces of objects pressed.
Could it be that he dragged the corpses away one by one with his hands last night?
Ji Yu was puzzled, but it was inconvenient to ask more, it was always good to have someone to help solve the problem.
With a partner who was on the road together, Ji Yu was naturally very happy. However, in order to avoid unnecessary trouble on the road, she continued to disguise herself as a man. It's just that if you follow Zhao Gongzi to hurry, it's not good to look like a beggar anymore. Ji Yu was in a dilemma, and Zao Wou-Ki wiped her face with his hand, and actually turned her into a middle-aged man with a pockmarked face.
He even knows magic!
Ji Yu couldn't believe his eyes when he saw his new face from the bronze mirror handed by Zao Wou-ki, and touched his face with his hand for a long time, making Zao Wou-Ki laugh, and hurriedly pulled the mirror back.
This Zao Wou-Ki is not only handsome, knows how to do spells, knows how to be considerate of female companions, but also is very rich.
After the two of them went all the way south, as long as they entered a place where there was a market, Zao Wou-Ki would take Ji Yu to buy things, eat, wear, use, and play, as long as it was something he or she felt novel and liked, he would buy it, and he would not even bargain.
And the gold sand in his arms is even more like he can never finish it, just take it!
Zao Wou-Ki's high-profile consumption caused Ji Yu's worries. In this peaceful and prosperous world, it is also important to pay attention to personal wealth and not expose it; Now that the army is in chaos, there are only two of them, isn't it easy to attract thieves?
"It's okay, I know spells", Zao Wou-Ki smiled and comforted Ji Yu, "Ordinary little thieves don't dare to fight my idea; And those who know how to use magic and can suppress me don't bother to rob me of my gold. ”
That's true, but that's under normal circumstances.
On this day, they lived in a black shop, and even a fool could see that there was a problem.
It's not that Zao Wou-Ki is reckless, this is the only place where there are people within a radius of ten miles; When they arrived, it was getting late, and Ji Yu happened to be uncomfortable and couldn't get cold, so he wasn't suitable for staying in the wild.
Under Ji Yu's persuasion, Zao Wou-Ki did not put on his "rich man" style this time, took out the broken silver that Ji Yu had saved before, and reluctantly paid for the room and food. At the same time, in order to deter Xiaoxiao, he deliberately boiled a bowl of cold water in the palm of his hand in front of the shopkeeper, and then scalded the wine and drank it.
If you don't have money and ability, no one should beat their idea.
But they ignored one point, Ji Yu was a woman, and she was in an inconvenient day, so she was recognized by the proprietress at a glance, and quickly estimated her real age according to her figure, manners and demeanor.
Because they wanted to keep a low profile as much as possible, this time, they only booked a room on the second floor, and they slept together. Although both of them were lying in kimono, after all, there was a man sleeping next to him, and Ji Yu was inevitably a little restless, and he actually had insomnia.
In the evening, around the fourth watch, Ji Yu suddenly heard movement outside, as if someone had sneaked outside their room, and then the sound of the window paper being stabbed.
Ji Yu hurriedly pushed Zao Wou-ki, but he slept soundly, and he didn't react no matter how he moved.
Ji Yu was anxious and wanted to go over and take a look by herself, but as soon as her feet stretched out, she suddenly smelled a strange smell in her nose, and then, she felt that the things in front of her were slowly blurred, and then she fell from the bed to the ground with a bang.
She fell for the incense and opened a black shop.
