The five of them split up and walked toward the rooms on both sides of the hall.
Old Gao took the lead and was about to barge into the west room. As soon as he stuck his head out, he heard a crack in his ear and was shot in the head by an arrow that flew out of the house.
Old Gao fell under the roof with his eyes wide open. Blood mixed with the rain and water flowed to the ground.
Chu Yun and Ah Shen shouted his name as they retreated towards the hall.
On the other side, Second Master and Ah Shui had already realized that there was no trace of Ji Xiang and Ruyi in the room. Second Master looked at the broken window and was about to crawl in to take a look when he heard Chu Yun and Ah Shen shouting.
He hurriedly led Ah Shui out. When they came out, they saw Old Gao lying under the eaves.
Second Master looked at Old Gao, who had died with grievances. He was so angry that his eyes almost popped out.
âBitch, if I donât kill you, I wonât be human.â
Chu Yun walked over. âMaster, they have crossbows. We canât get close.â
Second Master pointed at Ah Shen and Ah Shui and said in a low voice, âTake the crossbow and turn around from behind.â
Chu Yun and Second Master hid behind the hall and shouted at Li Yu, âB*tch Li, come out if you have the ability. Fight me openly instead of shooting arrows behind my back. What kind of hero are you?â
When Li Yu heard this, she analyzed,âSomeone is protecting him and calling him Master. From the sound of it, he hates me to the core. This place is not far from Le County. It seems that other than that Second Master, there canât be anyone else!â
âOnly bulls use brute force to fight. I canât be bothered to argue with a chicken, a coward, and a scaredy cat like you. Come over if you have the ability. I promise I wonât shoot you into a hedgehog.â
Second Master didnât expect Li Yu to still dare to go against him at a time like this. He scolded, âB*tch, if I catch you later, Iâll definitely make you beg for death. â
Li Yu mocked, âB*tch, I think you only have two mouths left. If you have the ability, come out. I promise to beat you up.â
âBitch, Iâll kill you.â
Chu Yun was so angry that he rushed forward, but Second Master stopped him. âStop. Donât fall for that bitchâs provocation.â
Chu Yun stopped aggrievedly and bowed to Second Master. âMaster, I was rash.â
Ah Shen and Ah Shui walked toward the back of the house with crossbows in their hands. When they reached the corner, they slowed down and stuck their heads out to take a look. They saw a few bundles of firewood piled at the back of the house near the main hall and the west room, blocking their view of the situation behind the west room. The two of them bent down and rushed over.
Ji Xiang was hiding behind the woodpile when he saw one of them poke his head out and retract it. He stood up abruptly and aimed at the two crouching men. Ah Shen was shot in the back of the neck and fell to the ground.
Ah Shui was shot in the back. He endured the pain and raised his crossbow to shoot at Ji Xiang. Ji Xiang was shot in the arm while Ah Shui was shot in the throat and fell to the ground.
Ji Xiang retreated out of the window and felt his heart panic. His arm began to go numb. He hurriedly said to Li Yu, âMadam, the other partyâs arrows are poisonous. You have to be careful.â
Li Yu hurriedly took out the antidote pill from her pocket and jumped to the window to hand it to him. She watched him swallow it.
She retreated and said to Ruyi, âRuyi, quickly take the arrow and bleed Ji Xiang. If it still doesnât work, search the two people Ji Xiang knocked down and see if they have an antidote.â
Ruyi nodded and crawled out of the window hole. He took a handkerchief and gave it to Ji Xiang to bite. He used the dagger to open the wound and pulled the arrow out of Ji Xiangâs shoulder. A stream of dark blood flowed out.
Ji Xiang bit the handkerchief and his face turned pale from the pain. Ruyi watched as he squeezed the wound until the blood flowing out turned red. Then, he poured the Golden Injury Medicine and wrapped it around him. Ruyi looked at him and asked worriedly, âHow are you? Do you feel better?â
Ji Xiang smiled weakly. âMy arm isnât so numb anymore. Fortunately, Madam brought an antidote pill.â
Ruyi heaved a sigh of relief and revealed a relaxed smile. âThatâs good. Hide here and rest for a while. Come out after Madam and I deal with those two.â Ji Xiang nodded and sat on the firewood Ruyi had carried over. He closed his eyes and rested.
Second Master and Chu Yun were hiding in the hall and did not know the situation in the west room.
Chu Yun looked at the house next door and thought to himself, Itâs raining, and we canât attack with fire. Ah Shen and Ah Shui havenât moved yet. Theyâve most likely been killed.
Second Master looked at the length of the broken leg in front of the Mountain God and came up with a plan. He said to Chu Yun, âUse the door as a shield and cover me as I go out and kill that bitch.â
Chu Yun looked at him. âMaster, cover me.â
Second Master nodded and raised it a few times. Chu Yun raised his crossbow and the two of them walked towards the house next door.
Chu Yun stood behind the longbow and shot arrows at the west room. Li Yu and Ruyi quickly ran two steps and jumped onto the beam. They picked up the crossbow and shot at the two people behind the longbow. Second Master hurriedly raised the longbow to block the arrows.
She pulled out a dagger with one hand and stabbed at Chu Yunâs throat. With a clang, the long saber and crossbow collided with sparks.
Li Yuâs dagger had already slit Chu Yunâs throat at lightning speed. Blood sprayed out, and Chu Yun fell to the ground like a sack.
âAh Yunâ¦â Seeing this, Second Master threw away the long table and shouted,
âBitch, Iâll kill you.â
He pulled out the dagger and stabbed at Li Yu. Ruyi shot an arrow at his wrist and the dagger fell to the ground. Li Yu kicked him to the ground.
Second Master rolled over and picked up the dagger from the ground. He pointed at her and shouted, âBitch, you know who I am. How dare you attack
Li Yu looked at him coldly. âAttack you? So what if I kill you?â
Second Master shouted sternly, âHow dare you? Iâm..
âDie!â Li Yu didnât wait for him to finish. Under his frightened gaze, she slashed his throat without hesitation.
Seeing that he was holding his throat in disbelief, she said indifferently, âWhen you treated other peopleâs lives like they were nothing, did you ever think that this would happen to you?â
Second Master glared at Li Yu and fell.
Ruyi said to Li Yu, âMadam, throw them down the mountain! Donât cause unnecessary trouble.â
Li Yu looked at the rain outside the window and nodded. âAlright, letâs get Ji Xiang to the side room to rest first.â
Ruyi crawled over and saw Ji Xiang leaning against the wall. His expression improved a little. He smiled at him and said, âItâs over.â
Ji Xiang nodded and smiled in relief. âYes! Itâs over.â
Ruyi squatted down and said to him, âIâll carry you back to the house to rest.â
âOkay.â Ji Xiang lay on Ruyiâs back and returned to the house. Li Yu took out her sleeping bag and let him get in and lie down.
The two of them began to pack Second Master and the othersâ things and piled them up.
Ruyi pointed at the horses and said, âMadam, what should we do with these horses?â
Li Yu glanced at the key horses. âUse them to pull the corpses into the mountains and chase the horses away!â
Ruyi nodded. âSigh! Itâs a pity about these good horses!â
âYes! Unfortunately, thereâs nothing we can do. Itâs troublesome to keep them.â
After settling Ji Xiang down, Ruyi placed the corpses of Second Master and the others in a pile and searched them for all the signature items. She placed the corpses on the horse and said to Li Yu, âMadam, watch Ji Xiang in the temple. Iâll go up the mountain and find a home for them..â
