Everything happened in a flash of lightning.
In just a few blinks, the situation on the ship had turned upside down.
The second master was lying on his back on the board of the boat, with a dagger stuck deep in his heart, blood gurgling out, and he was no longer breathing. His face still maintained the shocked expression he had before his death.
At this time, it seemed a bit scary.
Probably he never imagined that he would die in the hands of a weak girl.
Ling Jingshu was standing next to the body of the second master. There was a lot of blood splattered on the clothes, and the thick smell of blood was nauseating.
There was no trace of blood in her pretty face, and she was as pale as snow. A pair of eyes flashed with a variety of complex emotions such as fear, regret, and chagrin, which soon disappeared again.
She retracted her trembling hands into her sleeves and took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down.
In such a critical situation just now, she had no choice but to strike first. Otherwise, she will be the only one who dies. What's more, this is a gangster who kidnapped and robbed people, so he should have died!
She did nothing wrong!
Ling Jingshu recited it silently in her heart over and over again, but her stomach was churning endlessly due to the strong bloody smell, and she finally bent over and vomited out.
Bai Yu had already been frightened by this series of changes.
How dare a young lady with a gentle temperament dare to kill someone? The other party is a murderous gangster who kills without blinking an eye...
It wasn't until Ling Jingshu bent over and vomited with a look of pain on her face that Bai Yu suddenly came back to her senses. Without thinking, he rushed to Ling Jingshu's side and held Ling Jingshu's arm: "Miss, are you okay?"
Ling Jingshu felt like her stomach was churning, and she was so uncomfortable that she didn't care about her embarrassment and vomited everything in her stomach.
At this time, the bandits who attacked the official ship at night were dead and injured, and were no longer able to pose any threat.
... ...
"Your Highness, many people on the ship are injured. Should we send an imperial doctor to treat them?" Wang Tong suggested in a low voice.
The young man in black clothes said casually: "You can make the decision regarding the aftermath. You don't have to ask me one by one." When he spoke, he did not look at Wang Tong, his eyes kept falling on Ling Jingshu.
She looks beautiful and weak, but when she suddenly kills someone, she is so ruthless that it's shocking. Now I'm vomiting again...
What a contradictory and interesting girl!
Wang Tong followed the gaze of the young man in black clothes and glanced at Ling Jingshu, feeling amazed in his heart.
The guards holding long bows are all carefully selected archers who have undergone strict training, and all of them have the ability to pierce an enemy with a hundred steps. Just now, it looked like a random shooting of arrows, but in fact the arrows were all aimed at the gangsters.
As long as the girl doesn't move, she won't be accidentally hurt.
This girl was able to judge this calmly and did not move at all despite the random arrows. It's surprising enough. Not to mention, seize the critical moment and kill the leading gangster with the dagger in your hand...
Be ruthless to yourself and even more ruthless to others!
It is rare to find a lady from such a famous family. No wonder His Highness became interested in her...
Wang Tong thought in his heart and laughed in a low voice: "The people on this official ship are lucky to have His Highness's rescue, otherwise they would not have escaped today. They must also be extremely grateful to His Highness, and they must express their gratitude in person. There are still some gangsters on the ship, His Highness’s body is too rich to take risks, so why not go back to the cabin first. After my subordinates have taken care of everything, let them board the ship to see His Highness.”
The young man in black clothes said nonchalantly: "There's no need to go back to the cabin. I'll get off the ship and have a look."
"Your Highness, you must not do this." Wang Tong was startled and hurriedly stopped him: "Not all the gangsters have been captured yet, so it is not very safe. If someone tries desperately to hurt someone..."
"Long-winded!"
The young man in black clothes interrupted Wang Tong a little impatiently, and then walked away.
Wang Tong did not dare to stop him and immediately led a dozen guards to guard vigilantly around the young man in black clothes.
... ...
The stomach was completely vomited, and the burning and corrosive discomfort also slightly subsided.
Ling Jingshu leaned against Bai Yu weakly, with her eyes half-closed and a self-deprecating smile on her lips.
If this continues, one day she will become a stranger who doesn't even recognize herself...
"Miss, please stop crying." Bai Yu choked and wiped the tears from her face: "If you hadn't made a decisive decision just now, the gangster leader would never have let you go."
Yes, it is better to save yourself than to wait for others to save you.
If it fell into the hands of desperate gangsters, she would be the one lying on the ground now.
Ling Jingshu opened her eyes and gave a stiff smile: "Anyway, we finally escaped this disaster." After a pause, she whispered: "What happened just now... don't tell me yet. Ah Xiao, so as not to scare him."
Ling Xiao has always been timid, but he trusts and relies on her wholeheartedly. If he knew that she had killed someone, Ling Xiao would definitely be frightened!
Bai Yu nodded in agreement without thinking.
Unfortunately, there were too many people present and it was impossible to hide it. Otherwise, Bai Yu really wanted to hide this matter forever and not let anyone, especially the Ling family, know about it.
"I didn't expect you to have the courage to kill someone," the cold voice contained an inherent condescension, just like the feeling given by the young man in black clothes: "At last, my rescue of you was not in vain."
Bai Yu was very angry in her heart, and responded with a bit of force: "Thank you, Master, for saving your life. However, Master just ordered people to shoot arrows without even saying a word, which seemed too reckless. If something goes wrong, Master , It doesn’t matter if I live this slave’s life, what should I do if I hurt the young lady?”
Before the young man in black clothes said anything, Wang Tong, who was tall and strong, had already changed his expression: "How outrageous! How dare you talk to His Highness like this!"
Your Highness
Ling Jingshu was startled and looked up at the young man in black clothes.
Only princes and grandsons can use these titles. She had already guessed that this young man in black clothes had an extraordinary origin, but she did not expect that he would have such a noble status.
At such a young age, Xuanyi boy could be the youngest prince, King Yan Yang Qi? Or Yang Yao, the grandson of the Eastern Palace
Bai Yu's complexion changed slightly, and she secretly regretted it. If you use your quick words for a while and anger the nobleman, wouldn't it bring trouble to the lady
The young man in black clothes glanced at Wang Tong indifferently: "Talk too much!"
The annoyance in his tone was clear.
Wang Tong immediately knelt down and apologized: "I should not reveal His Highness's identity at will. Please punish me!"
The young man in black clothes ignored Wang Tong and let him kneel. His eyes fell on Ling Jingshu: "What's your name?" There was no need to hide his identity anymore, and the demeanor of someone in a high position and holding power was revealed.
Ling Jingshu stood up straight subconsciously: "The little girl's surname is Ling, and she is the ninth in the family."
As for her maiden name, of course I can't comment.
The boy in Xuanyi was obviously not used to people going against his will, so he raised his eyebrows.
Wang Tong, who was still kneeling on the ground, was secretly shocked.
His Highness is naturally majestic and cold-tempered. Even the guards who served him day and night did not dare to look at His Highness, let alone contradict him. This Miss Ling Jiu is quite courageous... (To be continued)
