Chapter 4: Wolves
"You're wrong, there are gods in the head, if it weren't for what they did, God wouldn't let Thor hack them to death. Also, the person who buys the murderer behind his back is even more vicious, but be careful, it's not that you don't report it, it's not time yet. If you do something wrong, be careful of the ghost knocking on the door in the middle of the night. ”
Originally, the two ruffians died, Xiao Jinyue regretted that there was no evidence, and he had no choice but to let the people behind him go.
But she didn't expect Li Ruoqian to be unrelenting, since this is the case, then of course she won't miss it, and she will collect some interest first.
The ancients believed in the gods, and those who were killed by thunder were those who were full of evil. She didn't believe it, after listening to these words, others didn't have any idea about Li Ruoqian and her mother's association.
Sure enough, after listening to Xiao Jinyue's words, everyone looked at Li Ruoqian with strange eyes, and some even echoed Xiao Jinyue's words.
"That is, only those who have committed the most heinous crimes will be struck to death by lightning."
"The county lord of Minghua has seen with his own eyes that those two people were killed by thunder, Li Ruoqian, how can you wronged Xiao Jinyue?"
"If you are not satisfied with the marriage, you can propose to dissolve the marriage contract, hire local ruffians to kill people, and your mind is too vicious."
……
Listening to everyone's discussion on the ground, Li Ruoqian's face was extremely ugly, and she gritted her teeth in anger.
"When I return to Kyoto, I will let my father and mother come to the door to dissolve the marriage, and you will go to great lengths to send someone to kill me."
After Xiao Jinyue said this, she didn't pay attention to Li Ruoqian, turned around and took fennel and prepared to go back.
Just a few steps away, suddenly a faint demonstrative "whoosh" wolf howl sounded on the mountain.
Listening to this sound, the howling wolf seemed not far from here.
Many ladies have changed their faces, but the men are still calm, after all, they are all carefully cultivated sisters-in-law in various prefectures, and they all have good riding and archery kung fu.
They followed their families to the summer resort with the emperor, just for hunting.
Just a few wolves, they don't pay attention to it.
After only a few slight noises, a girl suddenly exclaimed, "There are so many wolves. ”
Xiao Jinyue glanced at it quickly, and after a rough count, about thirty wolves emerged from all around and surrounded everyone.
Xiao Jinyue frowned, how could she suddenly encounter so many wolves?
This mountain is behind the summer resort, every time the emperor comes to the mountain to hunt for the summer, the guards will drive away the fierce beasts on the mountain in advance, leaving only some relatively docile small animals, it is said that there should not be such a large group of wolves left.
"Brother, I'm afraid." A girl with tears in her eyes clutched her brother's sleeve tightly.
Even the bamboo-blue brocade-robed man swallowed uneasily, "It's over, why are you surrounded by wolves?" ”
Suddenly surrounded by wolves, not only the ladies present were afraid, but even the men who were good at riding and archery became nervous.
If it were only these men who had riding and archery skills, they wouldn't be so nervous, but nine of the nineteen people present were women who were powerless.
Once you fight, you will inevitably be tied up and unable to show it.
Xiao Jinyue secretly sighed that she was unlucky, she had just crossed over, first chased by ruffians and hooligans, and then surrounded by wolves.
Couldn't God let her breathe?
Seeing that everyone was panicking, Lu Chengting, the prince of Zhenguo, had no choice but to stand up and ask the men to pick up their bows and arrows, surround the girls in the middle, and prepare to start fighting against the wolves.
The wolf king was very shrewd and did not appear in front of everyone, but hid in the rear and commanded the wolves to attack.
Under the command of Lu Gongzi, one sharp arrow after another was shot at the wolves, Xiao Jinyue watched the wild wolves fall to the ground, but there was no joy in his heart.
Because the dead wolf did not let the wolf king retreat, but instead commanded the wolves to launch a more ferocious attack.
Seeing that the arrows were decreasing rapidly, Xiao Jinyue also began to become anxious, and hurriedly said to the lady beside her, "The wolves are afraid of fire, whoever brings the fire fold, quickly take it out, let's pick up some dead branches and light the torches to see if we can scare the wolves away." ”
When everyone heard this, all the people who brought the fire fold hurriedly contributed, and Xiao Jinyue took the girls to gather up the dead branches on the ground.
I don't know if I was too nervous, but it took several tries before a few girls lit the fire.
Everyone stepped forward one after another and took a lit dry branch to defend themselves, and Xiao Jinyue also took one.
When he turned his head, there were too many wolves, but the arrows brought by the man had been used up, so he had no choice but to use the sword he brought to start hand-to-hand combat with the wolves.
"Girl, be careful." Xiao Jinyue was nervously watching the fight over there, when she heard Fennel's scream, she caught a glimpse of a wild wolf rushing towards her out of the corner of her eye.
Xiao Jinyue didn't think about it, raised the torch in his hand and struck at the wild wolf that pounced on him.
The wild wolf was so hot by the torch that he screamed, turned around and ran away, but Xiao Jinyue didn't care about being happy.
Because more and more wolves broke through the defense line, Xiao Jinyue could only hold the torch and desperately kick left and right.
Fortunately, the fennel girl was loyal, holding a torch and following Xiao Jinyue, and the master and servant resisted the wild wolf back to back.
"County master, the slave is protecting you, run." The county lord of Minghua next to him was protected by the maid, and he just wanted to run away with a torch, but a wolf pounced on her, biting her skirt and pulling it.
Seeing that the county lord of Minghua fell to the ground, Xiao Jinyue couldn't turn a blind eye, rushed over with a torch, and whipped it fiercely at the wolf that bit the county lord of Minghua.
Fennel rushed up after her and helped her up with Lord Minghua's maid.
Xiao Jinyue repelled the wolf, and did not dare to chase it again, but resisted the wolves with fennel and the master and servant of Minghua County, the four of them held torches back to back.
The lady next to her saw it and followed closer.
Xiao Jinyue took the time to take a look, and on the man's side, under the leadership of Lu Gongzi, he killed a lot of wild wolves, but many of them were painted to varying degrees.
Although the girls have torches here, they have no weapons, no martial arts, and poor physical strength, so it is estimated that they will not be able to support it for long.
After weighing it, Xiao Jinyue led everyone to hold torches to resist the wolves, and at the same time moved closer to the man.
Xiao Jinyue glanced at the torch that had burned most of the fire in her right hand, and secretly became anxious in her heart, and couldn't help muttering in her mouth, Si Ming Xingjun asked her to wear this backward ancient time, there were no guns and ammunition, so I would give her a dagger.
As soon as this thought came to mind, Xiao Jinyue suddenly felt that his originally empty right hand was holding something.
She looked down and saw a fantasy scene.
The originally empty right hand was holding a dagger that shone with cold light.
Xiao Jinyue was overjoyed.
But the next moment, she was suddenly pushed heavily from behind.
Xiao Jinyue watched as she fell towards a big bad wolf with sharp teeth waiting for its prey.
