Chapter 5: Peggy's Grocery Store
A horse was galloping, and as it approached, it reined in its reins and roared. w "Holy Maiden and Holy Flag Bearer, Fan must leave quickly now. It's already late. I have to rush back to the 1st Cult to report something important to the leader. An hour later, I feel uneasy." "
The two siblings over there were in a bit of a dilemma. The Ming Cult has always focused on matters within the sect. They had come out privately. If they forced members of the sect who had missions to stay, it would be unjustifiable, but they just said something about themselves. The three of them, at this moment, the young man Ao Qi felt that he was in a rather embarrassing situation. He couldn't stay or send them away.
"In that case..." Fang Ruyi finally said, "Since Mr. Fan has something important to do, we should put Mingjiao matters first, but my brother and I have some important things to do here. We can’t send Mr. to a nearby county.”
Fanchou was eager for them to say this, so he waved his hand quickly, "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Fan can just go by himself. The Saint and the Holy Flag Envoy have important things to do, so I will take the first step."
Holding his fists, he took a few steps back, turned around and started running towards the south.
Fang Jie frowned and said, "Sister, I feel something is wrong with Mr. Fan... How about I go up and kidnap him and ask him again?"
"Business matters..."
As Fang Ruyi said, she paused for a moment. A carriage and two horses appeared at the other end of the field of vision. On the horses were the two people they just talked about, one black and one white, slowly approaching.
"They are coming, Xiaojie, please be careful."
"it is good--"
Fang Jie stepped forward, and when he was fifty steps away, both sides stopped at the same time, shouting: "We brought what you want, where is Linglong?"
......
The curtain of the carriage was opened, and a palace robe decorated with black patterns and gold flowers was rustling in the wind. Bai Ning was holding a little man standing on the carriage, staring indifferently at the young man who was showing off his power, his slender white palms He lifted it up and patted her exquisite little head twice. Looking over there, a smile appeared in the bright red.
"Linglong...my godfather wants to ask you...what do you want, what can make you happy, remember to do it."
Bai Ning's voice was very soft, running in the wind.
The little girl nodded sensibly, then jumped out of the carriage and walked straight towards the young man riding a tall horse over there. After a few steps, she turned back and looked behind her, feeling a little reluctant to leave.
In the wind over there, the bright red cloak was flying. Fang Jie showed a happy expression, urged the horse on his crotch, and looked at the carriage warily, laughing heartily: "Hurry...Linglong...let's go again." Hurry, come to Brother Fang."
In his eyes, the little girl who kept looking back should be scared, fearing that the group of eunuchs opposite her were causing trouble behind her back. When they got close, Fang Jie couldn't hold back the last few steps and rushed over to pick up the little girl and sit on his chest. He raised his halberd and pointed it towards the carriage with a proud expression.
"It seems that you eunuchs still keep your word, and you have a certain virtue. You should keep it up." He originally wanted to find a chance to rush over and kill the white-haired man standing on the chariot. It can be seen that he has a calm demeanor. There were eunuchs with great martial arts skills on the left and right, so he gave up that thought.
So, he took out a piece of paper from his pocket and waved it in his hand, "Here is the prescription. I, Fang Jie, will not break my promise, lest others say that I am worse than an eunuch in the future, you can take it."
The arrogant words are harsh. Cao Shaoqin and Yu Huatian's cold eyes flashed with murderous intent. They couldn't help but draw their hands on the hilts of their swords, leaning forward slightly, with the intention of rushing over to kill at any time.
Bai Ning stretched out his hand and waved it, but remained motionless with his hands behind his back, "I don't want this thing anymore. You can keep it as a souvenir, maybe as a final souvenir."
"What?" Fang Jie held Linglong in his arms and looked around with a frown, but found no sign of an ambush.
Suddenly there seemed to be a wind blowing, and a surprised female voice screamed in the ear, "Fang Jie - be careful Linglong!"
My scalp was numb for an instant, and then I felt a cold sensation above my Adam's apple under my chin, then a stinging and severe pain, as if something had stabbed into my neck.
When he looked down, everything around him seemed to have slowed down. Linglong shrank in his arms, but her smart eyes were looking up at him with hatred. She held a small knife in her two small hands tremblingly, and her blood was flowing and wet. White and tender palms.
For a moment, poof——
The half-exposure knife was stabbed in again, and the entire handle was submerged.
In an instant, Fang Jie felt that the world was spinning. He let go of his hand and fell off the horse with a weak grip. He saw his cousin rushing over desperately, and he saw the little girl with blood on her body holding her hand. Holding the knife and staring at him coldly.
"It shouldn't be like this..."
Lying on the ground, in his rotating vision, it was so red that it was almost impossible to see anything clearly. In his memory, he still remembered the little girl in the valley who was angry because he accidentally ate a few pieces of cake. Why was everything different now?
"what--"
Fang Jie stared blankly in his eyes and screamed loudly, and that was his last cry.
.........
Then, it goes out.
.........
"Xiaojie——"
Fang Ruyi, who rushed over madly, rushed over and hugged the young man on the ground. She tried to hold down the hole that was still bleeding out with one hand, but blood still overflowed from her fingers.
Immediately, a red shadow rushed from the back of the horse. Fang Ruyi immediately rolled the body to the side, then looked at the little man and shouted heartbreakingly: "Linglong - why should I kill you?" Brother Fang, he did something wrong, you want to kill him."
"It was you who killed Linglong's grandfather and father..."
Perhaps she has adapted to blood and is no longer afraid. Yu Linglong glanced at her sister sitting on the horse on the other side, who was as dull as a clay sculpture. Then she looked back, holding the knife that was still dripping with blood in her little hand and raising it, "You are the one who caused it." Linglong and her sister have no home...so Linglong wants to kill you."
"No...it's not like that." Fang Ruyi shook her head vigorously, tears bursting out of her eyes, and she cried: "You are still young, don't listen to the leader of the eunuch, he killed your father and grandfather."
Yu Linglong shook her head, her childlike voice filled with coldness.
"It wouldn't have happened originally... Grandpa originally wanted to give the prescription to his godfather. It was you who were so troublesome... It was you who were so troublesome... It was you who caused Linglong to lose her home."
At this time, the knife stabbed past. But Yu Linglong was too young and had never learned martial arts. Her wrist was immediately held by Fang Ruyi, who was holding the body in one hand. She still wanted to say something and explain.
After all, she couldn't lay hands on a child.
From the carriage not far from here, a figure holding a sword rushed over: "How dare you be rude to the young lady."
Fang Ruyi was dragging the person with both hands, so it was naturally impossible to fight back. She immediately let go and rolled back, taking out a long whip from her waist. She saw that the person coming was a eunuch in black clothes with a long sword, and she cried out in tears and anger.
"I...will kill you."
However, the long sword suddenly slashed down, and the body that was originally lying on the ground was immediately split into two on its shoulders. The tip of the sword was raised, and the head was held in Cao Shaoqin's hand by his hair.
He looked over with contempt, "Come on -"
Suddenly, a long whip came whistling, Cao Shaoqin's black robe moved, the sword in his hand stirred, and he approached, the sword shadow and the whip shadow intertwined, and the figures were intertwined. Suddenly, Cao Shaoqin was forced to move away, and his body couldn't help but move backward. Looking up, the head in his hand was thrown up somehow.
After being caught by Fang Ruyi, she turned around and jumped on the horse, carrying Youqing and running back crazily.
Cao Shaoqin cupped his fists and said to Linglong: "Miss, I'm sorry, that woman's martial arts seems a bit high, Shaoqin can't keep her."
"You go down."
Bai Ning came over at some point. He waved his hand to let the person who missed him go away. He hugged Linglong and said, "It doesn't matter. The imperial army will destroy them soon. Rescue your sister together. Step by step, this time I’ve already killed one, and the other one won’t be able to escape for long.”
"You see, the blood of the enemy is actually sweet." Bai Ning licked the blood on the dagger from his fingertips.
He stretched out his hand and wiped it on Xiao Linglong's lips and asked her, "How is it?"
Linglong's sullen face suddenly revealed a dimpled smile, and she shook her head.
"My godfather lied to me, it's salty."
Bai Ning touched her head, stood up and laughed. He looked at the sunset, which was as bloody as blood, and gradually disappeared.
....
"Next time something like this happens, go ahead."
Cao Shaoqin looked at the large and small figures standing in the bloody red clouds, and suggested to the man in white next to him.
Unexpectedly, Yu Huatian raised the corners of his lips and tilted his head to look at him.
"Our acting skills are not as good as yours."
