Chapter 123 The End
Chapter 123 The End
The man had a meaningful smile on his face, opened his arms, and flew down with a bow and arrow. Seeing this, Su Chengnan quickly raised his hand and sprayed him with hot chili water.
But the temperature here is very low. After a period of time, the temperature of the hot spring water has dropped, and only the effect of the pepper water remains.
The water splashed on the man's face and he frowned, but it didn't cause much damage.
Su Chengnan took a step back, put the bamboo tube behind his back, secretly stuffed it into his sleeve, and quietly replaced it with new hot water.
"The girl's weapon is far different from what I imagined."
"It seems that those people's skills are not up to par. They are all good-for-nothings. They deserve this fate."
Su Chengnan looked at his high head, listened to his arrogant tone, and a smile slowly rose at the corner of his mouth.
"So, you think you're awesome?"
"Of course." He said proudly, then glanced at her casually: "Girl, why don't you come with me? Let's go to Jiangnan and live a good life."
"Stop your nonsense, you scoundrel!"
"Stop talking nonsense and if you want to fight, fight!"
Gangzi rushed out from the side with a sword in his hand, guarding Su Chengnan tightly, and was ready to fight a fierce battle with him.
"Just you?"
"Since you are in a hurry to get going, I will give you a ride."
The man in white took several steps back, took an arrow from the quiver, then drew the bow in his hand, ready to attack.
Su Chengnan was also ready at this time.
呲味——
The water just shot into his opened mouth, blocking the rest of his words in his mouth, and it burned him so much that he jumped up instantly.
%&@%&¥%@%!
He threw away the bow and arrow in his hand, opened his mouth, covered his throat with one hand, and fanned his mouth with the other hand. His eyes were red and he hated Su Chengnan.
He wanted to fight Su Chengnan to the death.
But Gangzi didn't give him a chance. He rushed forward and cut his throat with the sword in his hand.
On the battlefield, life and death are just a matter of a moment.
Su Chengnan let out a sigh, turned around and began looking for the next target.
……
The entrance of the ancestral hall.
Lu Chaofeng has already dealt with the last person.
Wu Ming left two people to continue searching for traces of smuggled salt, and the others followed Lu Chaofeng towards this end.
"Prince, this village is so weird!"
"How come the Qin family has hidden so many people from the Jianghu? Where did they find them?"
Wu Ming spoke as he ran, his tone indignant.
He was also slightly injured when he started fighting just now. Although it was not serious, he still felt very uncomfortable.
Lu Chaofeng climbed onto the roof and stood firmly, looking for the traces of Su Chengnan and others, and said to Wu Mingdao:
"Humph, the Qin family's plan started a hundred years ago. Most of these people in the martial arts world are from collateral branches. Naturally, they are more dedicated when working for the family."
Wu Ming: "These Jiangnan families have always been openly and covertly opposing the imperial court, and all the money goes into their own pockets."
Lu Chaofeng discovered the trace and didn't have time to say anything more, "Okay, hurry up."
"Yes."
The group jumped at full speed from the rooftop.
Following behind were several men running and pushing flatbed carts, the wheels of which squeaked on the ground.
……
When Lu Chaofeng rushed back, Su Chengnan had already taken care of the last one who had escaped.
He looked at her standing between the carriages, sweating profusely, holding a bamboo tool in her hand, and suddenly his heart calmed down.
"Miss, are you okay?"
"It's okay, go count the number of people and help Mi Feng apply the medicine."
"Okay. Be careful."
Su Chengnan nodded, leaned against the carriage frame, breathing heavily, and looked down at the wound on his arm.
Blood is seeping out.
As expected, I still can’t do strenuous exercise.
She wanted to remove the strips of cloth, but as soon as she raised her arm, a black shadow enveloped her.
She looked up blankly and saw that it was Lu Chaofeng who came back. Her face lit up with joy and her gaze fell into his deep eyes.
"do not move."
"I'll help you apply the medicine."
His voice was magnetic and seemed to be bewitching, causing Su Chengnan to unconsciously put down his arm and let him fiddle with his wound.
"Why are you back?"
"There's something fishy going on in the ancestral hall. I'm worried about you."
He poured some powdered medicine on Su Chengnan's wound, which was burning with pain. Su Chengnan couldn't help but gasp, "It's better to come back. There might be some traps in this place. It's better to be careful."
"Ah."
Lu Chaofeng nodded and looked at her wound carefully. His profile swayed in front of her eyes as he moved. The blood on his face had dried, and the hair at his temples was fluffy in the wind.
"My mother is gone."
"What?" Lu Chaofeng paused.
Su Chengnan lowered his eyes and repeated, "My mother was stabbed by them while trying to protect my brother. She couldn't be saved."
Lu Chaofeng stood up straight and gently pulled her into his arms. Su Cheng's forehead was pressed against his dark gilded coat, but her body was still two fists away from him.
She closed her eyes, faintly aware of his heartbeat. She felt an indescribable feeling in her heart: a sense of powerlessness in this era, a struggle over how to face Su Weimin, and even a hint of self-blame. Suddenly, she felt a little tired.
Lu Chaofeng gently patted her back with one hand, and kept the other hand hanging by her leg. He knew that Su Chengnan did not accept him, but he did not intend to take advantage of the situation.
"Let's wait for the funeral. Beiling is very close after leaving the village."
"Ah."
Su Chengnan stood up straight after hearing this, and his rationality returned. He continued, "The situation was urgent just now. I asked Jiayi to go ahead with the signal flare. I guess he has found reinforcements by now."
"Well, that's perfect." Lu Chaofeng gave her a comforting smile, reassuring her. "Once the reinforcements arrive, we'll thoroughly search Yuqing Village! No matter how many monsters and demons there are, we'll take the salt."
"Okay, I'll go take care of it first. It's getting late, let's all rest for a while."
"okay."
The two of them walked in opposite directions, one on the left and one on the right.
Su Chengnan gathered all the people of the Su family together. Han's death had a great impact on everyone, especially the elderly people like Uncle Fu and Nanny Han. The guards all knelt on the ground, saying that they had failed to protect the lady and wanted to die to atone for their sins.
Su Chengnan took the child from Nanny Han's arms and pointed at him, saying, "My brother is still an infant and will need your help in the future. I swear today in front of my mother and everyone else that I will protect this child and raise him to be a talented person! If you break this promise, you will be struck by lightning."
"My dear Miss, this old slave believes me! Please stop talking."
"Yes."
"We believe it!"
Uncle Fu wiped his tears, kowtowed three times to Han, then stood up and said, "This place is terrible. Fifteen people from our Su family have died, and eight are seriously injured. I'm afraid..."
"The dead are the most important. Leave the carriage for my mother and put the others on the flatbed. Now there is no coffin, so cover it with oilcloth!"
"The prince said that we'll reach Beiling just over the hill ahead! I will definitely not let them down when we get there."
"Yes!"
