Chapter 14: A Dumb Man

Every time she makes a living in the crotch of a man who covets her beauty, Chi Xue'e will feel an inexplicable sadness. At first, when this sadness came to her heart, she would still feel a little panicked, but gradually she got used to this feeling, and when she didn't have this feeling, she would feel that something was missing.

After all this, she should have become very strong, but this time she felt helpless, the first time since her father-in-law passed away.

She has seen thousands of troops, and she has never felt fear in front of thousands of troops, and every time she comes into contact with the army, the army wants to buy what it needs from her. In her long career in business, she summed up an experience: it is not as easy to deal with all merchants and eunuchs as it is to deal with the army, and trade with the army is the least energy-consuming and the most profitable.

She has never done business with swordsmen, swordsmen walk the world, with the sword in their hands, if they disagree, they will fight for their lives, her life is very expensive, and she does not want to bury her life in the hands of others for a few copper coins, but this time she has caused an unprecedented crisis because of the greed to buy two things that she should not have.

"It's useless for us to ask for it, but our friends want it!" When Xin Ling spoke, he inadvertently cast his gaze in the direction of the arrows that were continuously shooting at Chi Xue'e and them, and there was no trace of emotional fluctuation on his face, as if these things should have belonged to them, and Chi Xue'e forcibly took them away, and they just took them back in accordance with the will of heaven.

Chi Xue'e's face was swollen and red, but thinking of the archer who was hiding, she finally sighed helplessly and asked the guard to take out something else.

It is a red longbow, and its red color is not painted later, but the wood itself is red. Xiang Ye raised his eyes and felt that the material of this bow was very similar to the mahogany he had seen in the past, but when he looked closely, it was not very similar, he was a little confused, and he couldn't figure out what other wood was born red besides mahogany.

"This Yiwang bow is made by Lu Ban, the ancestor of the public loser, if it is not for the strength of the arms, it will be difficult to pull it apart, since friends in the dark like it, take it together!" When Chi Xue'e said this, she couldn't hide the pain on her face.

She threw the longbow at Xin Ling, and a man in white standing behind Xin Ling stepped forward to catch the bow, unlike when Xin Ling received the sword just now, he didn't even look at it after catching the longbow, he put his backhand on his back, as if he just caught a very ordinary thing.

"Can we go?" After handing over all the two things, Chi Xue'e breathed a sigh of relief, as long as she could survive this catastrophe, it would be more realistic for her than to keep two divine weapons that were worth a lot but were not blessed to live to endure.

"That's it!" Xin Ling smiled at her and said a very flat sentence, and as soon as he finished speaking, his figure suddenly flashed and jumped into the caravan.

Before the guards gathered around Chi Xue'e could even react to what was happening, a white figure had already jumped into them. The silver sword light flashed, and more than a dozen guards fell to the ground holding their throats, and the remaining guards were stunned, and when they understood that they had been attacked, they hurriedly rushed towards Xin Ling with their swords.

Xin Ling pulled out a sword flower with the long sword in his hand, and the tip of the sword stabbed backwards, and a caravan guard with a short sword who wanted to attack him from behind was suddenly pierced by the long sword, piercing the guards behind him, but his movements did not even slow down, he pulled out the long sword and handed it forward.

The oncoming guard was stabbed in the heart by his sword, and after stabbing this guard to death, he flipped his wrist again, and the blade of the sword slashed diagonally through the neck of another guard on the side.

After Xin Ling rushed into the caravan, the other two men in white also rushed over with swords. A sword light flashed in front of Xiang Ye's eyes, he only felt the light and shadow flashing in front of him, and suddenly there was a feeling of something wet and hot on his head, and the guard who used the short sword against his throat slowly fell, Xiang Ye reached out and touched the top of his head, the tentacles were wet, he put his hand in front of his eyes and looked at it, only to see that his hands were covered with bright red blood.

Xiang Ye's eyes widened as he looked at the three figures moving across the caravan, and everywhere the figure passed, there would always be a few people falling to the ground, splashing a cloud of dust.

Chi Xue'e looked at the changes in front of her in horror, she didn't expect that after handing over the things, the other party would kill the killer.

The guards and laborers of the caravan fell one by one in the shadow of Xin Ling's sword, and Chi Xue'e knew that if she stayed here, she would inevitably die under their sword, so she hurriedly shook the reins of her horse and ran into the distance.

As she galloped her horse, she focused on the direction in which she had shot the cold arrow, and strangely this time there were no arrows flying there, and after she had rushed thirty or forty paces from her horse, there was a sound of arrows breaking through the air behind her.

Chi Xue'e herself is a master of archery and horses, and from the sound of arrows flying through the air, she can hear that the person who shot this arrow is not the person who cast the cold arrow before, and her heart can't help but settle down.

Riding on horseback, she tilted slightly, dodging an arrow from behind, and as the arrow flew past her, she felt a sudden pain in her back, and the other arrow stabbed firmly into her heart.

The scene in front of her gradually became hazy, and her body shook slightly, and she fell off the horse's back, falling on the ground full of loess, splashing a cloud of dust.

"Xin Tong, when did you learn archery?" Xin Ling tore off a piece of cloth from the corpse of a guard, gently wiped the long sword, and when he inserted the long sword back into the sheath, he turned his face to look at the man in white who spoke like a woman.

The white-clothed man named Xin Tong put the longbow behind him, looked at the corpses all over the ground, and said to Xin Ling with some reluctance: "They have already given us things, why do you want to kill them?" ”

Xin Ling pouted and smiled, and said to him, "They already know where we come from, do you think Madam will promise us to leave a group of people who will ruin the reputation of Wu Yue Sword Tomb to live in the world?" ”

"What about this person?" At this time, another man in white, who had been standing aside and did not speak, walked in front of Xiang Ye, pointed his long sword at him, and asked Xin Ling.

"He is General Xiang Liang's subordinate, I'm afraid it's not good to kill him, it will be difficult to explain to General Xiang Liang in the future, just cut off his tongue, so as not to chew the root of his tongue outside." Xin Ling shrugged his shoulders, casually threw a dagger to the man in white and said, "Xin Hao, you do it!" ”

Xiang Ye was looking at the corpses all over the ground in a daze, he tried to recall the change of sword moves when Xin Ling and the others were moving, and suddenly heard them say that they were going to cut off their tongues, and quickly raised his head and looked at them with a shocked face.

"Wow, Gollum!" Xiang Ye pointed at Xin Ling with an angry face, screaming in his mouth, and the expression on his face was very angry.

Xin Ling and the others watched his performance, looking at each other, Xiang Ye shouted for a long time, but they didn't even understand a word.

"Could it be that he was dumb in the first place?" Xin Hao took two steps forward, squatted in front of Xiang Ye and grabbed his cheeks, and pinched his cheeks with a slight force, wanting him to open his mouth to see if his tongue was intact.

Of course, Xiang Ye understood what Xin Hao meant by pinching his mouth, and hurriedly raised his hand to hug Xin Hao's arm, and bit it when he opened his mouth.

Xin Hao naturally wouldn't let him bite, so he hurriedly withdrew his arm and slapped Xiang Ye in the face with his hand, knocking him to the ground.

"That's it! What is the ability to bully a mute? Xin Tong, who was watching from the side, frowned to stop Xin Hao's violence against Xiang Ye, turned back to Xin Ling and said, "Since this person is dumb, there is no point in hurting him again, since the things are also taken and the people are killed, let's go!" ”

Xin Ling pursed his lips, turned his head and glanced at Xiang Ye with some hesitation, then turned around and walked towards the east.

After the servants left, the wild wolves gathered around swarmed at the scattered mules and horses.

Several wild wolves surrounded Xiang Ye, their eyes shining green and staring at him deadly, wild wolves are different from wild dogs, compared to dead corpses, they still prefer live prey, in addition to mules and horses, Xiang Ye, who was seriously injured, was naturally the prey that they were extremely satisfied with.

Xiang Ye grabbed the short sword from the corpse of the guard beside him, and kept waving it at the wild wolf, he wanted to shout at the wild wolf around him, but he was afraid that the three white-clothed people who had just left would turn back and cut off his tongue after hearing it, so he had to keep waving the short sword silently to intimidate the wild wolf who was getting closer and closer.

Under a dirt slope in the east that Xiang Ye couldn't see, Xin Ling stood quietly with his hands and arms folded, he was waiting, waiting for Xiang Ye to scream, as long as he screamed, Xin Ling would immediately turn back and cut his tongue without hesitation.

But Xin Ling was disappointed, and after waiting for a long time, except for the occasional indistinct shout of "hmm" from Xiang Ye, he couldn't hear any other sounds.

He shook his head self-deprecatingly, and said to Xin Tong and Xin Hao behind him: "He's really a dumb person, let's go!" ”

Xiang Ye sat on the ground, looking at the wild wolf that was getting closer and closer, and his heart was furious.

"Damn, others won't encounter such a painful thing when they cross over, right?" Looking at the green eyes of the wild wolves and smelling the unique fishy smell of beasts emanating from them, Xiang Ye secretly shouted in his heart: "It's a big deal in the novel that the protagonist is tossed around, why do I just carry it like this?" Surrounded by a pack of wolves, they're about to tear me apart, oh my God, I know I'm just a little person, don't let me be a lump of wolf dung! ”

He shouted in his heart, but the wild wolves would not easily give up the delicious food that was about to arrive, and they still moved slowly towards him.

"Whoosh!" After the sound of an arrow breaking through the air, a wild wolf rolled a few times with a feathered arrow in its eye and fell into the dust, struggling a few times and unwillingly straightening its body.
