A dozen warriors holding crossbows and swords hung from their waists quickly came from the woods to surround them. There was a man in rich clothes riding a horse. He was in his early twenties, with a round face and a fat body. He was staring at Ning Tao with a pair of small eyes. His eyes were not friendly at all.
In these days of war and chaos, you can gain as much weight as you want, which in itself is a status symbol. Ordinary people don't even eat. It's good enough to have wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger. Where are the fat people
Xue Weiyang suddenly became nervous. She seemed to know the identity of this person, so much so that she was scared when she saw him.
"Sir, let's... let's go." Xue Weiyang pulled Ning Tao's sleeve.
Ning Tao didn't care who these dozen people were, but he didn't want Xue Weiyang and Ding Ling to be afraid, let alone kill people in front of the mother and daughter, so he nodded, turned around and followed the mother and daughter toward the hut.
Didn't take two steps.
Whoosh!
There was a sound of arrows cracking into the air.
An arrow flew past Ning Tao's shoulder and hit the trunk of a tree with a clang.
The arrow penetrated the wood and sawdust flew everywhere.
"Stop! Who told you to leave?" came a voice, full of arrogance and domineering.
Xue Weiyang held Ding Ling in her arms, trembling all over and unable to speak.
Ning Tao turned around, and the person who spoke was the fat man on horseback.
The fat man rode over, followed closely by a dozen warriors armed with crossbows, looking murderous.
The fat man rode up to Ning Tao on horseback, looked down at Ning Tao who was standing in front of the horse's head, and said domineeringly: "How dare you hunt in my hunting ground without kneeling down! "
Xue Weiyang knelt down with a plop, and then pressed Ding Ling, who was at a loss, to the ground.
Ning Tao didn't move. He had only knelt down to his parents in his life, and had never knelt down to anyone other than his parents. In this past time and space, let alone this little-known fat man, even the heroic Cao Cao, the emperor's uncle Liu Bei, or the Soochow overlord Sun Quan were not qualified to make him kneel.
If you dare to make him kneel down, what you will lose is not your longevity but your life!
Xue Weiyang pulled Ning Tao's pants, hinting him to kneel down.
Ning Tao still didn't kneel down. He leaned into her ear and whispered, "Who is he?"
Xue Weiyang was anxious, and she also put her lips to Ning Tao's ear and whispered: "He is the young master of the Yecheng garrison. His surname is Tang and his name is Ye. You can't be offended. Kneel down."
"Yeah." Ning Tao just responded softly, but stood up straight.
Xue Weiyang thought he would kneel down, but unexpectedly Ning Tao stood up straight again. She simply grabbed Ning Tao's pants and pulled them down, trying to pull him to the ground and kneel down, but the pants slid down a bit. As a result, she froze and did not dare to pull them down.
On this occasion, if she pulled down Ning Tao's Tianbao pants and let the wind blow, the scene would definitely blind everyone's eyes.
Tang Ye also thought that Ning Tao would kneel down, but Ning Tao muttered something to the woman and stood up straight again. He reacted with a bit of embarrassment and waved his hand at Ning Tao with a riding crop.
Snapped!
The riding whip made a loud crack in the air, and the whip rope soaked in tung oil went straight to Ning Tao's cheek.
Ning Tao stretched out his hand to grab it and pulled it easily.
Tang Ye, who was on horseback one second ago, was on the ground the next.
Xue Weiyang was so frightened that she couldn't believe that Ning Tao had done this.
Tang Ye's dozen or so menacing men were also stunned. Someone actually pulled their master off the horse in front of them!
"Hit him! Beat him to death!" Tang Ye roared angrily: "Kidnap that woman and child and make me a slave forever!"
Ning Tao's eyes flashed with black light.
These people are extremely vicious and have harmed countless good women and poor people, but no one punishes them. But in his eyes, these people are just materials for him to refine the divine crystal.
A dozen warriors gathered around, and someone drew his sword.
"Run! Leave us alone!" Xue Weiyang suddenly pushed Ning Tao.
Ning Tao smiled: "Don't be afraid, I believe they are reasonable."
That sunny smile made Xue Weiyang stunned. Tang Ye had already ordered him to be beaten to death, but he still wanted to reason with them? And even then, he could still laugh!
In this world of war and chaos, who can reason with whom
Just when she was so anxious that she almost shed tears, facing the dozen or so vicious warriors, Ning Tao not only did not run away, but walked towards them. As he walked, he said with a smile: "Master Tang, right? I'll follow you." Be reasonable."
Tang Ye, who had just gotten up from the ground, spat and said viciously: "Bah! Are you worthy of reasoning with me? I will chop you into pieces and feed you to the dogs!"
A warrior suddenly jumped up and struck Ning Tao on the head with his sword.
Ning Tao stretched out his hand to grab the sword and broke it with a click. The sword broke into two pieces.
Several warriors who were about to take action were momentarily paused.
Xue Weiyang and Ding Ling were also shocked.
Ning Tao continued to walk towards Tang Ye: "Mr. Tang, I hate people who use hands and feet the most. I like to reason. This deer is originally wild. Let me ask you, can I kill it?"
"Ah!" A warrior roared angrily and stabbed Ning Tao in the back with his sword.
Ning Tao seemed to have eyes behind him. He moved around, reached back and grabbed it, and the sword that was about to stab his back fell into his hand again. As he moved forward, the warrior and his sword were dragged in front of him with a clatter. He twisted his hand, and the warrior's wrist clicked and became useless. The sword also fell into his hand, and then he grabbed the sword body with both hands and broke it lightly. With a click, the sword broke into two pieces again.
A chin on the ground.
The atmosphere was tense and depressing.
Ning Tao waved and threw the broken sword in his hand.
Click!
The broken sword pierced the trunk of a tree next to Tang Ye. The tree trembled, and the broken sword was completely embedded in the trunk, leaving only a few inches exposed outside the bark.
Tang Ye was so frightened that his legs were shaking.
No one among the dozen warriors dared to step forward.
Ning Tao smiled and said: "Mr. Tang, what I said doesn't make sense?"
Tang Ye swallowed a mouthful of saliva: "That makes sense. You can take this deer, I... I don't want it anymore."
Ning Tao smiled: "You are still reasonable, okay, then I will take it."
After saying that, he turned around and walked towards Xue Weiyang and Ding Ling.
The mother and daughter were still kneeling on the ground, looking at Ning Tao with wide eyes.
Ning Tao reached out and pulled Xue Weiyang up: "Let's go home."
Xue Weiyang came back to her senses and didn't know what to say. She just nodded absentmindedly and then pulled Ding Ling to follow Ning Tao.
"Young Master..." A warrior came to Tang Ye's side, but before he could finish his words, Tang Ye slapped him in the face.
Tang Ye cursed: "Trash! A bunch of trash!"
A warrior drew his bow and aimed the arrow at Ning Tao's back.
At this time, Ning Tao's voice suddenly came: "Don't mess around. If you can't shoot me, you will die."
The warrior looked horrified, and he dared not let go of his bow, which was already fully drawn, to shoot the arrow.
As soon as he hesitated, Ning Tao, Xue Weiyang and Ding Ling had already walked out of his sight.
Tang Ye kicked the warrior who had opened his bow but did not dare to shoot an arrow: "Trash! You are all fucking trash! There are so many people who can't even deal with one person. Why do I support you?"
A large group of warriors lowered their heads and did not dare to say a word.
Tang Ye climbed on the horse's back: "Go back! I will bring the soldiers guarding the city. We must kill the thief!"
A dozen warriors followed Tang Ye away.
In the forest, Ning Tao suddenly stopped, with a painful expression on his face.
"Sir, what's wrong with you?" Xue Weiyang asked with concern.
Ning Tao said: "Ouch, my stomach hurts. You guys wait for me here for a while, I'll go and take a moment."
A blush suddenly appeared on Xue Weiyang's face: "You... go quickly, Ling'er and I are waiting for you here."
Ning Tao put down the deer and went deep into the forest. When he estimated that the mother and daughter could not see him, he waved his right hand and released the gun, jumped on the gun and flew away.
In the forest, a group of people moved quickly.
On a tall horse, Tang Ye cursed: "You dare to touch my master's bad luck, damn it! I will cut him into pieces, that woman..."
Before he could finish his words, a scream suddenly came from behind the team.
He hurriedly turned around, and at that moment his eyes froze, unable to move.
In his sight, Ning Tao stepped on a spear, with ink smoke rising all over his body. A tall warrior was knocked into the air, with his upper body on the left and his lower body on the right. He was cut in half with one shot!
Before he could blink, the ink smoke flashed, and Ning Tao was already in front of him.
"Do you think I will let you go? You are thinking too much." Ning Tao slapped him down...
Shacai!
In a moment, the people in the forest disappeared, but there was a thick soup for refining the Buxian Dan in the big sun gourd.
The only ones left alive were the dogs, and the horse.
Another corner of the woods.
"Mom, how come Uncle Ning hasn't come back after being gone for so long? Why don't you go and have a look." Ding Ling said.
Xue Weiyang blushed inexplicably: "What nonsense are the children talking about? It's convenient for your Uncle Ning... How can mother see it?"
"Then I'll go take a look." Ding Ling said.
Xue Weiyang grabbed her and said, "You can't see it either."
"Why?" Ding Ling asked curiously.
Xue Weiyang had a depressed expression on her face: "No reason, just... I can't see it."
Ding Ling thought about it seriously and then said: "Then if Uncle Ning becomes my father, will I be able to see it?"
Xue Weiyang glared at Ding Ling: "Then you can't see it either."
"Can you see?"
"I..." Xue Weiyang suddenly gave Ding Ling a slap and said angrily: "You naughty kid, you can say something that you are not ashamed of, but don't say it anymore!"
This is really a trick of strength.
Ding Ling giggled and said, "Mom is shy. Mom likes Uncle Ning, right?"
Xue Weiyang raised her hand again.
Ding Ling raised the corners of her mouth: "Even if you hit me, you still have to say, I like Uncle Ning to be my father!"
A coughing sound came from the forest.
Ning Tao walked out from behind a tree and said with a smile: "My stomach doesn't hurt anymore. Let's go home."
"Yeah." Xue Weiyang responded, her cheeks were dizzy and she didn't dare to look into Ning Tao's eyes.
Ding Ling jumped up and down: "Go home! Go home!"
