Chapter 434: The Sheep's Betrayal
Xiulin wrapped her headscarf tightly and clinged to the wall in the darkness, hiding herself under the shed. The light of the torches swam not far ahead, like a school of fish.
The body is a little overwhelmed.
Xiulin felt that her head was groggy, and her limbs were sore and limp, as if she would collapse to the ground at any moment. Tense her nerves all the way to hide, she was really tired.
Thankfully, it's not to the point of delirium.
Torches swam to nearby houses, and the sound of loud banging on wooden doors was noisy and harsh. Unlike at first, they did not come to ask the owner of the house if he had seen any outsiders, and the restless people were dragged out by the guards as soon as they opened the door. Suddenly, as if a bucket of ice water poured down from the top of Xiulin's head, she was full of excitement, and an ominous premonition was like a steel needle with substance stabbing her.
What are these people searching?
Her mind was chaotic, and she didn't have any clear thoughts for a while, and her thinking became a little dull due to exhaustion. Xiulin cautiously surveyed everyone who passed by in her field of vision, Jingwei's face was solemn, his expression was as cold as an executioner, and they dragged the old man, the woman, and the child to the clearing in front of them. She heard someone shuddering and asking, but Jingwei didn't answer a word.
"Don't scratch me, I don't know anything!" the woman's scream suddenly pierced Xiulin's eardrums, and the voice ...... It was Yasmin, whose home was not far from here, and was dragged to this clearing, and Xiulin even heard Mara's intermittent sobs. She gasped hard and involuntarily took a step forward.
That's when it happened. She felt a sharp gaze sweep toward where she was.
Almost instinctively, she lowered her head and let the headscarf cover her face. A hand gripped her arm rudely, and Jingwei looked at her and nudged her without saying a word, a mocking snort coming out of his nose.
Xiulin walked in front of Jingwei, looking from under the turban to the open space ahead.
People were moving in all directions. They were like a flock of sheep in a fence, and they were supposed to stay there and not move, but one of the sheep made a very abrupt cry. This cry stirred fear in the hearts of the sheep, and they subconsciously stayed away from Yasmin and Mara. So Xiulin saw Yasmin at a glance.
Yasmin was half-squatting. He hugged Mara with a force that seemed to strangle her, and her eyes looked around like a terrified animal. Mara sobbed hard and buried her face deep in Yasmin's shoulder.
One of the guards standing next to her glanced at the other guards beside her, and snorted. A blade that glowed with cold light was pulled out of his waist. Yasmin's eyes widened suddenly. Holding Mara and curling into a ball.
Mara turned her head and stared motionlessly at Jingwei as she approached the mother and daughter, unable to even cry.
The tip of the knife pointed indifferently at the trembling mother and daughter.
Xiulin gradually quickened her pace. Hold the cloak tightly in your left hand. She knew that once she used the magic magic weapon, she would be discovered by the demons, but she didn't understand what these Jingwei were going to do, because she didn't understand, so she was very uneasy. To protect Yasmin and Mara. The voice in the depths of her heart roared fiercely, it was all because of her, and if Yasmin and Mara were hurt, it was all because of her fault!
"Stand up and take off your clothes. The knife-wielding Jingwei gave an expression of the order.
"Clothes, clothes?" Yasmin shuddered violently and hugged Mara harder, she looked into Jingwei's eyes with a begging gaze along the sharp long knife. Jingwei told her to take off her clothes, but this place ...... There are a lot of people in this place who are staring at her!
"No...... Please...... I didn't kill people, I don't know...... I didn't go out I didn't see anything!" Yasmin shook her head like madness, and Mara choked, thin lines of blood flowing from her closed lips. In order not to cry, she bit her lips, but she still couldn't suppress the faint whimper in her throat.
The other guard grabbed Mara's thin shoulder and tugged hard, causing Mara to fall back with an "ahh Mara was stunned, and Yasmin was stunned, and a moment later she cried and got up and pounced on Mara.
Before he could touch Mara, the sword-wielding Jingwei swung his scimitar and laid it across her neck. The blade left a red wound, and the pain made Yasmin forget the impulse, as if frozen, and stood in place.
Xiulin blended into the circle of old people, women, and children around her, and through her cloak, she grasped the handle of her gun.
Yasmin suddenly turned his head and looked straight at Xiulin.
After a second of silence, Yasmin raised his hand tremblingly, and the voice was not loud, but everyone could hear it clearly.
"It's her. ”
Xiulin was stunned for a moment.
When she came back to her senses, the people around her had quickly avoided her, and Jingwei walked towards her.
Her hand involuntarily let go, and it was placed in front of her like this, her ears still receiving the incomprehensible words, "Lord Fire Phoenix's guard...... She killed her, and she said that Lord Fire Phoenix was a demon......"
There was a lot of restlessness.
It was as if Yasmin had just spit out the most terrible and vicious curse, and the silent residents of Sand Eagle City were actually boiling! The sounds of gasping, screaming, and questioning were mixed in a chaotic manner, but Xiulin didn't hear it, and her attention, at this moment, was all focused on Yasmin......
When Jingwei behind her stepped up and grabbed her arm, Yasmin looked away.
Didn't go to see Mara either...... Without looking at anyone, Yasmin looked at the ground beneath his feet.
So.
All right.
In terms of results, it is not much different from what Xiulin originally expected, Xiulin is ready to make a secret move, once she uses the magic magic weapon, she will be discovered no matter what.
Yasmin is, after all, a very traditional Quire. This is not a betrayal, Xiulin thought, it is just human nature.
Xiulin's gaze became cold little by little, and she silently listened to the footsteps of the other Jingwei approaching - it would be a big mistake to think that she had nothing to do, the executor of the Demon Command Alliance, even if she couldn't move one arm, she could still deal with these Jingwei-
The red flames rose into the sky, like stars leaping into the sky.
Jingwei, who was as ruthless as an executioner, shuddered at this time! Xiulin immediately turned around, shook off his hand, and kicked him in the face with a flying kick in the air. Kicking Jingwei's face, Xiulin leapt to her feet, passing through the jaw-dropping old men, women, and children, and rushing into the darkness.
No one caught up, it should be said, no one chased her at all, this situation is not normal.
After running for a while, Xiulin hid in the shade of a tree and raised her head.
The firelight was gone, and Xiulin glanced at it when she turned around just now, and now that she thought about it, it must have risen from near the castle. It's not a fire that is lit, it's the fiery red trail left by the blazing flames hitting the night sky!
In an instant, Xiulin understood.
It's that "Fire Phoenix"-like demon! (To be continued......)
