Luoyang Brocade

Chapter 52: Rescue (2)

Views:

This is a boy about fifteen or sixteen years old.

Thick eyebrows on the temples, a pair of cold and deep eyes, a straight bridge of the nose, and thin lips formed an extremely handsome face.

Wearing a black brocade robe, it seemed to blend into the dark night. However, the overall temperament is too eye-catching and dazzling. Even in the dark night with dim light, it is still eye-catching.

It is an innate nobility, and it is a magnanimity that can only come from being in a high position for a long time. When people see it, they will feel awe. He didn't even dare to look into those deep and unpredictable eyes.

Such a young man would definitely not be a high-ranking official in the imperial court. With so many skilled guards, it is obvious that this young man is by no means an ordinary person...

Ling Jingshu secretly guessed the identity of the other party.

The other party's boat was a little higher, and the young man stood on the board, which was quite condescending. His cold and sharp eyes also fell on the girl who was held hostage by the gangster.

The girl was obviously taken hostage in a hurry and had no time to dress up. She was only wearing homely and half-used clothes.

Her black hair is slightly messy and scattered behind her, and her pretty face is a little pale, which makes her eyes brighter and brighter, and her lips are red.

Just like a peony waiting to bloom, it exudes a dazzling color in the dark night, making people unable to take their eyes away.

The leading gangster pointed a long knife at the girl's back. The strange thing was that the girl also had a dagger in her hand, and the sharp dagger was pressed against her tender neck.

The girl who was held hostage was unexpectedly calm.

The guards seemed to be looking intently, but in fact they were looking at the girl from the corners of their eyes.

No wonder they are.

Even he couldn't help but take a second look at such a beautiful girl.

"You want to see me?" The young man in Xuanyi glanced at the second master, his thick eyebrows slightly raised, his voice was calm, and he did not hide the contempt in his eyes.

... ...

From the moment the boy in Xuanyi appeared, the second master knew something was wrong.

Just looking at the demeanor of this young man, one can tell that his origin is definitely extraordinary. To put it shamefully, the battle-experienced self and the young man looked at each other, and their knees became weak, and despair arose in their hearts that they could not resist the other party.

The second master suppressed the panic in his heart and shouted bluffingly: "We are only seeking money, and no human life was harmed just now. But you killed me in pain, you are simply vicious and crazy. Now move away from the waterway for twenty miles. I will lead the brothers and leave immediately."

Are you vicious and crazy

The boy in Xuanyi smiled instead of being angry, but the smile did not reach his eyes: "It's really interesting. I have never heard anyone say that about me in my whole life!"

The guard leader next to the young man in Xuanyi's eyes was full of anger, and he pulled out the long knife in his hand. Just as he was about to issue an order to kill these gangsters, he was stopped by the young man in Xuanyi:

"Wang Tong, wait a minute. These gangsters are quite interesting. Let me ask a few more questions."

Quite interesting

Ling Jingshu and the second master glared at each other almost at the same time.

The second master's dignity as a gangster was ruthlessly trampled into mud. For Ling Jingshu, the hope of rescue was even smaller.

Although this young man in mysterious clothes, whose identity is unknown, came to the rescue in time, he was by no means a good person with a bodhisattva heart. He didn't take the lives of all the people on board the official ship into consideration at all.

She must find opportunities to save herself, otherwise, Ling Xiao will burn incense and paper for her today next year...

The young man in Xuanyi didn't seem to see the anger in Ling Jingshu's eyes, and asked the second master: "You keep saying that you are only seeking money and not harming human lives. If that is the case, why are you and your men empty-handed, but instead holding someone hostage who has no power to restrain a chicken? A delicate girl?"

The second master suddenly had the illusion of kneeling in the court, and replied subconsciously: "Before I had time to grab the gold and silver, I knew that reinforcements were coming. That's why I kidnapped this young lady, as long as it cost us our lives."

After answering, I felt extremely annoyed. What kind of evil was possessed by him? There is nothing to be afraid of a hairy boy who has not yet grown all his hair and is relying on the authority of his family to run rampant.

The look of the second master changed and he sneered ferociously: "Do as I say now. Everyone return to the boat and leave the twenty-mile waterway. Let us go, or I will kill her now!"

As he spoke, the long knife in his hand pierced the thin clothes with a little force.

The cold tip of the knife is pressed against the skin tightly, and if you apply more force, it will pierce the back.

... ...

Ling Jingshu's pretty face became paler, but her heart gradually calmed down, and she subconsciously clenched the dagger in her hand.

The gangsters were in panic, and all their attention was focused on the ship in front. But he didn't notice the slight movement under the water.

Several guards who are well versed in the nature of water have quietly entered the water and quietly approached the official ship. Just waiting for a sudden attack.

The young man in black clothes is attracting the gangster's attention.

The young man in Xuanyi twitched his lips and said leisurely: "She and I have never met, so her life and death have nothing to do with me. If you want to take action, just kill her now. Later I will order the guards to fire arrows and kill her." By shooting her to death with random arrows, you can avenge her. She can also rest in peace at Jiuquan."

The second boss: "..."

Ling Jingshu: "..."

The young man in black clothes flashed his eyes slightly, half-smiling but not smiling: "Why don't you take action?"

The second master's blood rushed to his mind, and his temples were pounding. Being provoked repeatedly by the young man in Xuanyi, he almost wanted to kill Ling Jingshu at all costs.

However, there was still some sense left in his mind and he resisted the urge.

At the moment, Ling Jingshu is his only support and hope of escape. If he kills Ling Jingshu, what awaits him is to be shot to death by random arrows or hacked to death with random knives.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred.

The guard hidden under the water suddenly jumped onto the ship's board and swooped over with a sharp blade in hand.

Whoosh whoosh! The guards who had been standing motionless on the board also released the arrows in their hands at this time.

The gangsters were caught off guard. Almost everyone was hit by arrows and screamed in agony. Those who were not shot in the vital parts were killed by the guards who emerged from the water.

Several arrows were fired in unison, attacking like raindrops. One of them grazed Ling Jingshu's cheek, and another pierced the hem of her skirt and passed by her legs.

Ling Jingshu didn't move at all, but her back was dripping with cold sweat, and her palms were even more wet.

The second master's arms and legs were hit by arrows. He screamed and the long knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clang.

However, he has been standing behind Ling Jingshu. As long as he takes one step forward, he can hold Ling Jingshu in his hands again, and there is still a glimmer of hope...

Before the second master could take a step, Ling Jingshu turned around quickly, with a cold and fierce light flashing in her eyes, and raised the dagger in her hand.

Oops!

The second master's pupils shrank sharply, and he wanted to avoid it, but it was too late.

There was a sharp pain in the chest and blood splattered.

The second master fell down slumped, his eyes wide open, and he refused to close his eyes.
