Chapter 53: Kill Her
Bandits enter the nunnery and rob it?
Shen Lingyu was really taken aback.
Qingxin Nunnery has stood outside Shengjing City for many years, and this kind of thing has never happened.
Not to mention that since the murder of the Empress of Heaven, the Qingxin Nunnery has also declined, and even the pilgrims can't see it on weekdays, so there is nothing to grab.
The bandit entered the nunnery today, as if it had been premeditated.
The only explanation is that they are coming at her.
After all, she is the only pilgrim living in this nunnery.
Thinking of this, Shen Lingyu hurriedly asked Mona to help the old lady down.
"This place goes straight to the back mountain, let's go out and hide from here first, and then talk about it after the thieves leave!" Shen Lingyu said urgently.
The old lady nodded calmly, and there was no panic on her face, as if she had seen strong winds and waves.
Shen Lingyu didn't say much, and helped her with Mona to leave through the small gate of the courtyard.
At this time, several nuns ran over from outside in a panic, and the leader was Liu Lianyi.
Seeing this, Shen Lingyu hurriedly beckoned them to go with him.
"Sister-in-law, come here!"
Liu Lianyi nodded, and ran to the small door with the people, but it was too late.
A long axe suddenly flew into the air and struck a little nun in the back, and the little nun died of rage on the spot.
"Ah!!h
Seeing this, the others covered their eyes and screamed in panic.
Immediately afterward, several bandits laughed loudly and chased after them, surrounding them.
Mona's eyebrows narrowed, and she decisively protected Shen Lingyu behind her.
"Sister go first!"
How could Shen Lingyu be willing, she pulled away and said: "You go first, they are bandits, just for money, there is no need to fight with them, in case you have three long and two short, how can I explain to your family." ”
Mona frowned when she heard this, "But ......"
Before she finished speaking, she heard Shen Lingyu say a few more words in her ear, and there was one more thing in her hand.
Mona understood, pursed her lips and silently retreated to the small door.
"Sister, if you hold on, I will bring someone to save you soon!"
As the words fell, a cigarette cartridge fell to the ground.
Seeing that the situation was not good, the bandits were about to chase after them, but it was too late, and by the time the smoke cleared, Mona was already nowhere to be found.
The leader was a big man with rough features, one eye seemed to be injured, a black cloth was tied to block the view, and there was a long scar at the corner of his mouth, which spread to the root behind the ear, which looked very terrible.
After Mona fled, his gaze swept between the women, and then fell on Shen Lingyu, who was dressed in brocade.
"You are the third lady Pei of the General's Mansion?"
As soon as Shen Lingyu heard this, he was even more sure that these people were coming for him, so he slowly stepped forward with fear.
"It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is that as long as you let us go, I can give you what you want."
As soon as she finished saying this, a small minion beside her pushed her unceremoniously.
"How do you talk to our boss!"
He pushed this one with a lot of force, and almost pushed Shen Lingyu to the ground.
Fortunately, Liu Lianyi reached out in time to support her.
Shen Lingyu also knew that this was not the time to be reckless, and his eyes looked at the master again.
"You entered the nunnery to rob, just to make money, since you know that I am the third lady of the General's Mansion, then you should know that my father is a famous rich gentleman in Yangzhou, as long as you leave us alive, no matter how much silver you want, I can give it to you."
It's hard not to be impressed.
They are thieves, and they are different from those who are extremely vicious, and they still talk about some morality.
Although they are also robbing houses and houses on weekdays, if they carry human lives on their hands, it is not a good thing for them, after all, this is at the foot of the imperial city.
But......
"Third Mrs. Pei, their lives, Lao Tzu can let go, but your lives can't."
As soon as these words came out, Shen Lingyu didn't have any reaction, and Liu Lianyi was anxious first.
"Why? Since you know her identity, you should know that if she dies, the General of the Pillar State Mansion will definitely not give up! ”
When the leader heard this, he laughed out loud without fear.
"What is the General Zhuguo Mansion, the Pei family army is gone, I heard that the person in charge of the mansion is a woman now, a female streamer, what kind of waves can be set off!"
After speaking, he looked at Shen Lingyu again, his eyes were extremely angry.
"Third Mrs. Pei, don't blame me, if you want to blame, you can only blame you for offending someone you can't afford to provoke!"
As soon as the words fell, he glanced at the little thief beside Shen Lingyu.
The little thief immediately raised his knife and slashed at Shen Lingyu.
Shen Lingyu narrowed his eyebrows and shouted loudly:
"I know who it is who commands you! I have just sent my maidservant to the garrison camp at the foot of the mountain to find someone to come to support, and with her light skills, she can bring people back with a cup of tea, and I wonder if you will have time to escape smoothly, and then go to your employer to get a commission?" ”
As soon as these words came out, the little thief's raised knife paused for a moment, and then he turned his head to look at the leader.
The leader also looked pensive, as if he was thinking about the truth or falsehood of Shen Lingyu's words.
Shen Lingyu pursed her lips and smiled: "You just want money, there is really no need to put your life into it, I said it, as long as you let us go, I can give you more money." ”
The leader frowned and hesitated, both afraid that they would not be able to escape, and that they would not get the money afterwards.
So in comparison, the conditions of this Third Lady Pei are the most favorable for them.
It's just that the identity of the employer is far above Mrs. Pei San, and if something goes bad, their situation will only be more troublesome.
But...... What if he eats both?
The leader pondered silently, and when he looked back, a cold and smug smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
"Come on, escort them to the back mountain for me, first avoid the investigation of the officers and soldiers, and then kill Mrs. Pei San and go to the employer to get the money!"
Shen Lingyu's eyebrows frowned, and the whole person was not good.
This thief really doesn't want oil and salt, and he doesn't want to send money in a hurry, and if he wants it again, it's too late.
The little thieves unceremoniously drove them back to the mountains.
Liu Lianyi was scared in her heart, and unconsciously grabbed Shen Lingyu's hand.
"Brother and sister, I've lived in Qingxin Nunnery for so long, and I've never seen the bandits, listening to what they just said, it's obvious that they're coming for you, have you offended anyone recently?"
Shen Lingyu nodded silently, and said comfortingly: "Sister-in-law, don't be afraid, we will be fine." ”
"But ......"
"Oops!"
A sudden shout interrupted Liu Lianyi's unfinished words.
When I looked closely, it was the old lady who accidentally fell.
Shen Lingyu hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, "Grandma, are you okay?" ”
The old lady shook her head, but her mouth was panting.
"People are old, their bodies are useless, and they can't walk too long......"
Shen Lingyu said distressedly: "Otherwise, I'll carry you away, right?" ”
Anyway, this old lady was also affected by her.
The old lady waved her hand again and again and said no, but the bandit walking in front was disgusted.
"Old immortal, what's the use of living at such an age, let her carry you on your back! If Lao Tzu is chased by officers and soldiers because of you, Lao Tzu will chop you up and feed you to the jackals! ”
