Chapter 10: Being Fooled into a Pit
The orange-red sunset dyed the western sky red, and the golden sunset added to its beauty.
Beside the mountain path, the evening breeze carries the fragrance of vegetables.
It was supposed to be a very pleasant and enjoyable scene, but it was ruined by those people in the grass on the hillside.
Because of Ruyi's shout, not only the people at the foot of the mountain were on guard.
The people lurking in the grass were also frightened.
"Oh no, boss, we were discovered."
"What should I do, boss?"
"Are we still going out?"
What is surprising is that this group of people who ambush are even more panicked than Liu Yaoyao and the others.
"Go out, why don't you go out? If we continue like this, we will soon starve to death."
Following the so-called boss's words, about ten people stood out from the swaying grass.
All of them were in ragged clothes, dark and thin.
"Hey, victims of the disaster at the foot of the mountain, you are not allowed to go to the border town. Go back quickly."
I saw the boss, with one hand on his hips and the other pointing far away at the victims who had already contacted the guards, in a very targeted manner.
But at this time, Ruyi on the mountain shouted again:
"No, no, sir, it's not them. The people surrounding us are there."
Liu Yaoyao's ears were almost numb from their echoes, but she clenched the iron spoon in her hand tighter.
"What exactly is going on? Why? Why are so many people targeting us?"
Tang Jinzhen had a dark face, glanced at Aunt Bai and Jixiang, moved her steps, and protected Liu Yaoyao.
Silence is today's mountain path.
The group of people who came out of the grass did not expect such a result, and the boys next to them were even more panicked.
"Boss, what's going on? Is there someone who has the same idea as us?"
The so-called boss, with a full beard and a boyish voice when he opened his mouth, shook his head solemnly:
"No, that person obviously doesn't like us, which means that group of people is more threatening."
The young boss gritted his teeth, pulled the people around him and shouted: "Squat down."
At the moment when they lowered their bodies, Ji Xiang, who was standing in front and left of Tang Jinzhen, flew past the top of the grass like flying.
Kicked over a group of people not far behind them.
Those people were wearing armor, their weapons were shining with cold light, and they were also like oriole behind the mantis. It seemed that it was not that simple.
Jixiang's kick blew up the nest.
A dense crowd of people emerged from the grass on both sides of the mountain road, nearly halfway up the mountain. At a glance, there were at least several hundred people.
Liu Yaoyao's hand holding the iron spoon shook.
My heart skipped a beat, "Are you done playing? Did you finish playing so easily?"
Even if Jixiang can fly, even if Tang Jinzhen has great kung fu, even if those followers can be as good as ten.
But what about her and the victims?
The victims of the disaster are old and weak, so let’s just leave them alone.
But they have been together for a few days, they are not strangers passing each other on the street.
In the blink of an eye, Liu Yaoyao had already thought a lot, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of the young man beside him with the same expression.
Before Liu Yaoyao could ask, there was a sound of "kill" on the hillside.
Hundreds of people wearing armor and holding long knives rushed down.
He didn't make any bold words or show off, but simply killed directly.
Among the victims, women and children screamed in shock.
Liu Yaoyao also shook her hands and pulled Aunt Bai behind her:
"Mommy, stand next to me..."
Before Liu Yaoyao finished speaking, she saw Aunt Bai pull out a soft sword from her belt.
Pulled out a soft sword...
sword……
Liu Yaoyao's eyelids were twitching, and she felt that she could no longer look directly at this group of people.
First Jixiang raised her feet and flew away, and then Nanny Bai raised her hand and drew her sword.
Looking at Tang Jinzhen who didn't move an eyelid next to her, Liu Yaoyao suddenly burst into endless courage and yelled loudly:
"Come, come, come, the young and old are in, the women and those who know archery are in the middle, and the strong ones who know kung fu are outside. Everyone forms a circle and fight with them!"
Tang Jinzhen's hand just slipped into the cuff of his sleeve and he sighed helplessly.
"call out"
Fiery red fireworks rose into the sky and exploded into a blood-red peony.
Liu Yaoyao held up the spoon and stared blankly at the top of her head, feeling as if she had fallen into a pit.
Since I was picked up by this man, my journey as a cook has seemed peaceful but is actually dangerous.
Let’s talk about the line that looks like robbery but actually has a clear goal.
There are also those victims who come to rob.
In the past few days, she noticed the fear and admiration in the eyes of those accompanying her when they looked at Tang Jinzhen.
She couldn't believe that in this world, victims of disasters would be coaxed away so easily after being forced to that extent. What was most likely was what happened.
But she slept...
Fell asleep.
Liu Yaoyao's eyes fell on Aunt Bai, who was holding a soft sword and leaping into the enemy pile like a dance to harvest their heads.
She seems to have found the reason, so they were just teasing her along the way?
"Qiang Qiang..."
There was the sound of swords clashing. When Liu Yaoyao raised his head, he saw that someone was already coming to kill him.
What stood in front of her was not only the black fan but also half of Tang Jinzhen's body.
"Don't be afraid, hide behind me."
Liu Yaoyao took two steps back, but still held the spoon in her hand.
She will not leave her life in the hands of others. At the last moment, she will only commit suicide.
But it was as if he was against Liu Yaoyao.
As soon as she finished this thought, she saw a blue peony rising not far away.
I don’t know when I led the group of people who were hiding in the grass and making harsh remarks and laughed loudly:
"Our young master's people are here, don't even think about running away."
Since the group of people saw the fireworks, they knew they had been prepared.
I don’t know how many people I greeted in secret.
But they also know that if they don't succeed in this trip, they will either die here or go back and die.
It's better to kill two more, maybe we can really complete this mission.
Therefore, Ruyi did not see that they were defeated and were greeted with increasingly fierce and lifeless attacks.
"Boss, boss, what should I do?"
"They're going to die, they're going to die, how come we didn't see so many people before!"
The young man whose ears were about to explode due to being squeezed and noisy by his younger brothers was looking straight at those armors in trance:
"It's Xie Jiajun's armor. They showed off their power in the border town, but now they are out of the city!"
In the crowd, the young man's voice was drowned.
Liu Yaoyao was protected behind the young man.
Watching Ji Xiang Ruyi and Aunt Bai and the attendants who were talking and laughing like the big brother next door, beheading people as easily as sweeping the floor, I was already numb.
Those victims who thought they would be completely wiped out were also well protected.
It was obviously an encirclement and suppression by hundreds of people, but it happened to be so simple.
Just like that robbery by bandits and the interception by the victims, it started with great momentum and ended so easily and unbelievably.
Numb, Liu Yaoyao was completely numb.
When I saw those people in black and red armor coming from the outside...
Chapter completed!
