Qing Kun shuddered and immediately responded loudly.
He Jian and Ruan Xiaojiu were even faster. He Jian was already very skilled in martial arts, and he had been tempered on the battlefield long before, so his agility and reaction speed were unmatched by ordinary people. Upon hearing Su Yao's words, his men had already pounced on those men, and he leaned over and knocked down one of them first.
Those people were only concerned with running away and had no intention of fighting. They originally wanted to end the battle quickly, but they didn't expect that there were skilled fighters outside. They surrounded the enemy and couldn't gain any advantage for a while. They couldn't help but get anxious, and someone drew the knife from his waist on the spot.
The knife was extremely sharp, and a cold light flashed in the dark night. Even He Jian couldn't help but blink his eyes, and then he shouted angrily: "Japanese sword! Are you Japanese?!"
The shape of the knife was not that of the Great Zhou Dynasty. It had a strange shape and was very sharp. He Jian had seen it before and recognized the difference at a glance.
At this time, Ruan Xiaojiu, who had come up with some people to help, also arrived. When he heard what He Jian said, he was stunned, and then he couldn't help but feel horrified.
How could the Japanese pirates appear in Yunnan? !
This is Yunnan! How did they get here without any obstacles? It's incredible!
But now is not the time to wonder about these things. After being slightly surprised, everyone focused on dealing with the person in front of them.
Su Rong was worried about his sister, so he left fifty or sixty people to protect Su Yao. Now, there were only four people left to guard the carriage, and the others had all gotten on. It was at this time that most people were held back by the Japanese pirates. On the ordinary roof of the Zhang family's house, several black shadows swooped down from the roof and headed straight for the carriage that was guarded by only four people.
Mrs. Ji was standing outside the carriage. She was so frightened by the scene that she screamed and fainted.
Su Yao's four remaining guards fought desperately to protect their master, but there were seven or eight men in black on the other side, all of them were very skilled, and it seemed as if they were lying in ambush there waiting for this moment. Even the best of Su Yao's four guards found it difficult. What happened was that Su Rong and the others were still in the house, and Qing Kun and He Jian were entangled by several Japanese pirates over there. A man in black took the opportunity to lift the curtain and wanted to jump into the carriage.
They had already been observing on the roof for a long time. The carriage was small, and with the tire tracks, they could tell that there was indeed only one person in the carriage, a woman.
She must be the county lady that the Seventh Master mentioned who is very capable of stirring up trouble.
The Seventh Master had said long ago that they had to make preparations for both scenarios this time. If it succeeds, they have the plans for what to do next. If it doesn't, they also have their own channels to find out. And tonight, when the sentry guarding the intersection said that soldiers were coming here, they knew that they had failed.
However, Qiye had expected that someone would come to arrest them, so he had already made arrangements.
Now is the time.
If they can't kill the Crown Prince, then they can kill Su Yao, the Princess of Changning County who has always been doing bad things. That's a totally profitable deal!
The curtain was opened and the man in black suddenly pounced forward.
Qing Kun was so anxious that his eyes were about to burst and he shouted: "Girl!"
But now it is out of reach.
Then, he felt that a lifetime had passed, but in fact, it was only a flash of lightning, and the man in black fell backwards and heavily to the ground.
Someone immediately went over to check the situation, and at this moment, a crossbow arrow shot out from the carriage and went straight to the man's forehead, scaring the man so much that he leaned back heavily and barely avoided it.
He finally learned about his companion's situation - he was shot in the forehead by a crossbow arrow and died on the spot.
This Changning County Lady!
He angrily picked up a knife to chop at the carriage, but it was too late. Su Rong in the house had already freed up his hands and rushed out with a large number of troops. Together with the guards who stayed outside, they surrounded them, almost like catching turtles in a jar. They didn't even have the ability to fight back, and were soon killed or injured.
Su Rong didn't care whether they lived or died, and asked Su Yao first: "Yaoyao, are you okay?"
Su Yao lifted the curtain to reveal his face, glanced at the people under the carriage, and smiled: "It's okay, what's the situation inside?"
"Mr. Zhang and Mrs. Zhang are both dead, and the young master is also dead. They are all desperate criminals. How could they spare anyone's life? If they are no longer useful, they will kill them." Su Rong frowned, and was relieved to see that Su Yao was really safe and sound. "Everyone in there has been arrested. There are still some fish that have escaped, and we have ordered people to follow the traces to chase them."
Su Yao nodded, jumped off the carriage and looked at the knife that He Jian was holding.
Su Rong also took a look and frowned, saying, "The pirates' samurai swords! They actually have Japanese wanderers here!"
Su Yao shook her head and sneered: "No, they are not Japanese." She walked in front of the group of people, looked at them coldly for a while, and suddenly pointed at one of the thin middle-aged men: "Come out,"
There was no movement, as if the man didn't understand what Su Yao said.
He Jian said softly: "Girl, he..."
"Master Bai Qi, are you really going to keep pretending?" Su Yao raised his hand to stop He Jian from talking, staring coldly at the middle-aged man, and raised his eyebrows with a click of the tongue: "Master Qi is really capable, I thought you were captured by Marquis Guangping in the southeast, but I didn't expect that Master Qi is so well-connected that he not only evaded the pursuit and search, but also came to Yunnan. It seems that the master you serve is far more powerful than we imagined."
Su Rong also stared at the man for a while, and suddenly raised his hand as if to draw his sword. Then, the middle-aged man subconsciously put his hand on his waist.
Su Yao sneered: "Master Bai Qi is a master on the sea. I heard that he has a special trick that makes the enemy tremble with fear, which is the soft sword on his waist. Is that right, Master Bai Qi?"
Master Bai Qi raised his head, his eyes were as sinister as a poisonous snake spitting out its tongue, and he met Su Yao's gaze and said indifferently: "It seems that Miss Su knows me very well."
"You're too kind. How can anyone understand us as well as Master Bai Qi?" She took a step back calmly, raised her hand to reveal a small crossbow in her hand, raised her eyebrows and chuckled: "Master Qi, don't act rashly. After all, no matter how fast Master Qi's sword is, it may not be faster than my crossbow, don't you think?"
Master Bai Qi couldn't tell what he was feeling.
He knew Su Yao. Princess Fenyang and Xu Chong had scolded Su Yao countless times for being nosy. Not to mention Qi Yunxi, who wanted to kill someone whenever Su Yao was mentioned. At that time, Master Bai Qi could not empathize with them, but now, he could fully understand those people's feelings towards Su Yao.
This damn girl is so annoying! How could she be so smart? !
