Volume 1, Born Lonely and Cold Chapter 4, Lin'er is in distress
When her eyes felt the warmth she hadn't felt for a long time, Lin'er finally woke up from her sleep.
The first thing I saw was the dazzling sunlight, and I unconsciously closed my eyes for a while, and when I got used to the light, I opened my eyes again, only to find that I was squatting and listening to the story before, and I don't know when I was lying on Xu Bing's lap again.
Lin'er also guessed that Xu Bing must have not slept all night, even if it was dawn, she couldn't bear to wake her up.
At this time, she woke up, glanced at Xu Bing on the side, and found that the other party did not look at her, so she retracted her head. Standing up, he smiled a little shyly, "I'm sorry Brother Xu Bing, I was too sleepy last night", and peeked at Xu Bing as he spoke.
Seeing Lin'er wake up, Xu Bing stood up, touched Lin'er's little head, and said softly, "Let's go." With that, he lifted his steps and walked towards the place where the horse was tethered.
Because the two of them had already traveled most of the distance yesterday, it was only noon today, and Yunqiao Town appeared in sight. Without the slightest pause, the two headed straight to the town.
When they entered the town, they got off their horses and led them on.
This town is not big, and the front and back are only a hundred zhang long, and walking through it on foot, a cup of tea is enough. But at this time, the town is not cold, and the streets are full of pedestrians.
Approaching the end of the year, there are many vendors selling things on the street, and all kinds of shouts are endless.
Lin'er seemed to be very curious about this, looking east and west, with a smile on her face all the time. She is the daughter of the Xu Mansion, and she usually goes out less, so she is very yearning for this kind of lively scene.
was walking forward, and suddenly there was a cry in front of him, Xu Bing just glanced at it lightly, and then didn't pay much attention to it. But Lin'er on the side didn't seem to want to give up any opportunity to watch the excitement, so she just lost her horse and walked forward.
Xu Bing originally didn't want to pay attention to it, but when he saw Lin'er going, he reluctantly found an inn on the side, gave some broken silver, and handed the horse to the shopkeeper, so he chased forward.
The cry came from a seventeen or eighteen-year-old woman. She was dressed in a shabby coarse cloth dress, very thin, and the girl's body trembled a little in the cold winter near the end of the year. Her hair was a little messy, but it still couldn't hide her slightly delicate face.
At this time, she was dragged by a man in his twenties and walked down the streets of the town. Although the woman was trying her best to resist, she was still too weak compared to the middle-aged man, and she was still pulled and staggered forward.
Behind these two people, followed by an old man with a white beard and white hair, who must have passed the age of sixties.
The old man ran two steps quickly, stretched out his hand to hold the man, and shouted, "Young Master Chen, please let my granddaughter go, my old man has only such a relative left."
The man who was called Young Master Chen by the old man did not have the slightest mercy for his words, only to see him flick his arm vigorously and throw the old man to the ground. At the same time, he stopped and pointed at the old man and said, "Old immortal, this young master originally gave you a tael of silver for the sake of your age, if you follow again, this young master will kill you." As he spoke, he glared at the old man fiercely, then turned around and dragged the woman who was still crying forward.
Seeing that his granddaughter was taken away, how could the old man care about what Young Master Chen had said, he still struggled to get up from the ground, and rushed up again with difficulty to grab Young Master Chen.
The old man was about to beg again, but when he saw that Young Master Chen had touched a dagger in his hand at some point, he stabbed at the old man with a gloomy face.
The two were already very close to each other, and the old man rushed forward, and at this time, the dagger came quickly, and he was about to stab the old man, but suddenly a figure flashed, pulling the old man away and standing aside.
Only to stand still did I realize that it was Lin'er's figure. At this time, Xu Bing had also arrived, for such a scene, he did not choose to make a move, but watched quietly, but his right hand was always placed on his waist, and there was a dagger there, a dagger that would only be used when killing.
It's a long story, but it's really just a very short period of time. That Young Master Chen reacted and moved his gaze to where Lin'er was, and then, there was a burst of obscenity in those eyes, coupled with the smile that instantly rose on his face, it looked very disgusting.
Young Master Chen was completely attracted by Lin'er's beauty, so he pushed the woman in his hand away, and slowly walked towards Lin'er, and said with a lewd smile as he walked, "I didn't expect that Young Master Ben would have such a blessing today, I just bought a beautiful girl, and now there is another fairy." Young Master Chen licked his lips as he spoke, and at the same time rubbed his hands in front of him, the obscene meaning was undoubtedly revealed.
Lin'er had just helped the old man up, and when she heard Young Master Chen's frivolous words, her brows immediately furrowed, and her eyes were full of disgust. But she didn't say anything about it, but put her hand on the hilt of the sword, as if she was ready to draw her sword and kill that Young Master Chen at any moment.
Seeing this, Young Master Chen didn't seem to be the slightest fear, and then teased, "Yo, the fairy is angry, hehe, but the fairy looks even more beautiful when he is angry." Young Master Chen's steps did not stop while speaking, and he still walked towards Lin'er, "If the fairy is free, can you go to my Chen Mansion to sit down, this young master will definitely serve the fairy comfortably."
Hearing this, Lin'er couldn't bear it anymore, and shouted "die" in her mouth, so she directly pulled out her long sword and stabbed at Young Master Chen.
The distance between the two was not far, and Young Master Chen's steps were also non-stop, Lin'er's long sword arrived in front of Young Master Chen in just a moment, and he was about to be stabbed, but who knew that Young Master Chen's reaction was extremely fast, just when the long sword was an inch away from him, he saw him slightly on the side, and then dodged. At the same time, Young Master Chen raised his right hand and flicked it lightly at Lin'er's long sword, the sword body was offset, and Lin'er's body was slightly unstable, but fortunately, her skills were not bad, and she quickly withdrew the long sword, and stabilized her body on the ground in front of her.
All this happened in just two breaths, and Lin'er, who was originally angry, opened her eyes even wider at this time, obviously very surprised by this. That Young Master Chen's previous performance was obviously a useless fool in her opinion, but the calmness that the other party showed when she made a move just now was completely unexpected by her.
The seemingly random sideways dodge was easily completed when the tip of the sword was only an inch away from the chest, and the next light flick, although it didn't use too much strength, was a force to make Lin'er's attack ineffective at the same time, and he was already in danger.
Only then did she realize that she was not the opponent of the "gentleman" in front of her, and if the other party had just shot at her when she was unstable, even if she could dodge it, she would definitely be hurt by the other party.
Lin'er put away the anger in her heart and gradually calmed herself down, at this time, she was very much like Xu Bing when she was killing people at night, even her eyes were the same.
Young Master Chen also put away the smile on his face at this moment, but there was still a flirtatious voice in his mouth, "The fairy's temper is really not small, this young master just invited the fairy to go to the mansion to sit, why did the fairy draw his sword and face each other."
Lin'er knew that the other party just wanted to provoke herself, so she still kept calm, was silent for a moment, and said, "I don't know what is the good scenery in Young Master Chen's mansion, I want to invite this girl to go."
Originally, Lin'er had been silent, and she was even more wary of Young Master Chen, but at this time, a sudden sentence made Young Master Chen stunned for a moment, but he replied in an instant.
And it was this short moment that allowed Lin'er to find an opportunity, only to see her take a step forward, swept the long sword over, and was about to behead Young Master Chen.
said that it was too late and that it was fast, Young Master Chen was originally better than Lin'er, but at this time, it was only because he was stunned for a moment before that he faced a slight crisis. A trace of anger flashed in his eyes, but he didn't panic at all, at the same time as Lin'er's long sword slashed, he shortened his body and avoided it, but the bun on the top of his head was cut off by this sword, and the long hair on one end was draped down, and Young Master Chen's eyes were even more angry.
Seeing that the blow missed, Lin'er quickly retreated, looked at the other party, and did not strike again.
At this time, Young Master Chen slowly stood up, his eyes were full of coldness, and he said, "Young Master Ben is going to condemn you today." As he spoke, he waved his hand behind him, and suddenly more than a dozen big men jumped out of the side, all holding long knives, and surrounded Lin'er.
When Xu Bing saw this, he also knew that Lin'er couldn't deal with it, and was about to make a move, but he saw another figure passing by and falling in the crowd......
