I survive in the weird Liaozhai

Chapter 106 Trouble

"Step, step, step"

As the sun was setting, dozens of riders were galloping wildly on the official road. The woman in the lead had murderous eyes and an anxious look on her face. She couldn't help but speed up her horses, putting quite a distance between herself and the team behind her.

When she saw the carriage in the distance, she jumped off the horse, ran quickly to Shen Qiuxue's side, grabbed her hand, and without waiting for her to say anything, she looked her up and down. She was relieved to see that she was not injured.

"Qiu Xue, are you okay? If you are injured, I won't be able to explain to Master."

Breaking free from the woman's hand, Shen Qiuxue quickly waved her hand

"It's okay, it's okay. Uncle, please go check on Master and the others. They have been poisoned and are still unconscious."

"Don't worry, I've brought the best doctors in Xinze County. Your master and the others will be fine."

Turning around and staring at Li Hongyu standing on the other side, the woman asked in a deep voice, "Tell me, what's going on?"

Li Hongyu bowed slightly and said, "Master, we were attacked by a group of men in black last night. We don't know where they came from yet, but judging from their behavior, they look like assassins."

Hearing this, the woman's eyebrows raised and she said in a deep voice, "There are still such daring assassins in this world who dare to accept the mission of assassinating our Yanyue Sect disciples."

Li Hongyu shook her head slowly. "I'm not sure either. They were equipped with strong bows and their arrows were poisoned. There was one person alive, but he was very stubborn. He committed suicide during the interrogation."

"But there are other clues."

Li Hongyu shook her head again. "I couldn't tell what their martial arts were like. They didn't carry any iconic items, and they didn't say a word from beginning to end. They left almost no clues."

"But I left their bodies and those of my sisters who died in battle in a ruined temple seventy miles away. If they haven't been destroyed yet, I think we can still find some clues."

"Okay, a corpse is fine. I want to see who is so brave as to go against our Yanyue Sect."

"Tread, tap, tap,"

Until this time, more than fifty well-equipped soldiers stopped in front of the carriage. The leader of this army jumped off the horse and came to Shen Qiuxue. After looking at her for a moment, he smiled and said, "Xue girl, long time no see."

Shen Qiuxue couldn't help but smile as she looked at the one-armed man approaching her, "Uncle Jiang, why are you here?"

"I heard that something happened to you, so Jinxiu and I rushed over without stopping. Now that I see that you are okay, I feel relieved."

"Yeah, yeah, yeah I'm fine, it's just that Master and the others were poisoned, and... and Xiaoye and Yingying were also killed yesterday."

As she spoke, tears welled up in Shen Qiuxue's eyes and her voice choked up.

Seeing this, Ye Jinxiu walked up to her and touched her head. "It's okay, it's okay. Master will not let their deaths be in vain."

After comforting the little girl, Ye Jinxiu came to the old man who was supported by two soldiers, bowed and said, "Mr. Lin, Doctor Wang, I'm sorry to trouble you two to take care of my fellow disciple's injury."

Pushing aside the support of the armored soldiers, the two pale-faced, trembling old men quickly bowed and said,

"Mrs. Jiang, you are too kind. Don't worry, saving lives is our job, and we will do our best."

"Okay, if you can cure my fellow disciple this time, our Moon Covering Sword Sect will owe you a favor."

After hearing the promise from the woman in front of them, the two old men stood up straight immediately, and they immediately felt that their waists and legs were no longer sore.

The favors from the Yanyue Sword Sect are priceless. If they can get in touch with them, they will be able to rule Daqian in the future.

Without any delay, after saying hello to Ye Jinxiu, the two of them immediately rushed towards the carriage with swift steps.

Of course, the sooner the better when it comes to treating injuries, no one can stop them from saving lives and healing the wounded now.

After arranging for a doctor, Ye Jinxiu came to the one-armed man and helped him brush away the dust on his hair before speaking.

"My husband, you and Hongyu should go first and bring back the bodies of the assassins who killed Qiu Xue and her group yesterday. I will get to the bottom of this matter."

"Okay, I'll leave this to Madam. Hongyu, lead the way. Let's go and bring back the killer's body first."

When the group had made their arrangements and were preparing to go their separate ways, a figure holding a silver spear slowly passed by them.

Now that they are safe, he has fulfilled the agreement, so there should be no more entanglements in the future. He is afraid of trouble.

Seeing the boy's figure getting farther and farther away, Shen Qiuxue's eyes were a little tangled. Finally, she mustered up the courage to run to the boy and block his way. She lowered her head and spoke timidly.

"Well...well, we haven't repaid you yet, I think..."

Gu Nian'an walked around the woman in front of him and continued to move forward. There was no favor owed to him, so how could he repay her? He would be thankful as long as they didn't cause trouble for him.

After waiting for a long while without getting a reply, Shen Qiuxue slowly raised her head a little. Seeing that there was no one in front of her, her body suddenly froze and the tears in the corners of her eyes almost fell.

He lowered his head again in grievance, grabbed the corner of his clothes with his left hand, and tried several times but didn't dare to step forward to block the boy's way again.

Seeing this scene, Jiang Xiao, who had just mounted his horse, felt like he was about to explode.

What the hell is this guy? How dare he ignore the general’s granddaughter? Is he tired of living?

He quickly turned his horse's head and galloped to Gu Nian'an, pointing the spear at his chest, his voice cold and murderous.

"Go back and apologize."

Alas! Gu Nian'an sighed. He had tried his best to avoid it, but why did he always encounter such unnecessary troubles?

Raising her head slightly, she looked through the scarf at the one-armed man riding on the horse, and said in an equally cold voice, "You are here to cause trouble."

The spear moved slightly closer, and Jiang Xiao looked down at the young man in front of him with a cold light flashing in his eyes. "I said, go back and apologize."

"laugh"

The spear in his hand flipped, and bits of blue light emerged. Gu Nian'an's eyes showed murderous intent. Since he came here to cause trouble, there was no need to be polite. He didn't want to cause trouble, but that didn't mean he was afraid of it.

Just when the two were about to start fighting after a disagreement, Shen Qiuxue stood in front of Gu Nian'an.

Without saying a word, she just raised her pitiful little eyes and stared at the one-armed man on the horse.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiao quickly moved his spear away a little. This was the general's precious weapon. If it was scratched or hurt, he would be too ashamed to see the general in the future.

But now Jiang Xiao felt extremely speechless. He clearly came here to stand up for Xue girl, but how come he ended up being the bad guy.

After learning the whole story from Li Hongyu, Ye Jinxiu hurriedly came between the few people.

She first glanced at her husband with some resentment, and then bowed to Gu Nian'an.

"Thank you for your help last night, my husband was a little impulsive, please don't be offended."

"I never thought of saving them, so there is no favor between us. Get out of the way and don't cause trouble for me. This is more practical than a favor expressed verbally."

Hearing Gu Nian'an's ruthless words, Ye Jinxiu's mouth twitched. Damn, this kid is so arrogant, I really want to beat him up.

Resisting the urge to attack, Ye Jinxiu pulled Shen Qiuxue to her side, and then said to the one-armed man, "Husband, make way."

Jiang Xiao put away the spear in his hand, slowly urged his horse to come to Ye Jinxiu's side, and stared at the young man on the road with sharp eyes.

Gu Nian'an completely ignored this, retracted his spear and continued forward alone.

As the sun set, Gu Nian'an walked farther and farther away, and in the end only a blurry figure could be seen.

Shen Qiuxue's eyes dimmed as she watched his figure walking away. In the end, she still didn't know his name.

Ye Jinxiu reached out and touched the soft hair of the girl next to her, with an unusually strange look in her eyes.

It turns out that their girl Xue likes this kind of thing. She is so cold and can't even speak a human language. I don't know what she likes about that boy.
