Another 20 minutes later, under Yuan Zhenyi's lead, everyone crawled behind a small hill. With the help of the moonlight, they could clearly see the situation below.
Seeing the situation below, Mo Wuji realised how ridiculous his plan to secretly kill the fat merchant was. Even though seven to eight people had died, the fat merchant actually had an extremely powerful underling. This fella was fighting against two people, and one of them was Jia Jing.
Jia Jing came with three people, but now there were only two left. This meant that one of them had been killed.
"I was too rash. If I had come alone, I would have returned empty-handed," Mo Wuji sighed.
Yuan Zhenyi said, "You can't be blamed. This fat merchant is not simple. Ordinary merchants would not have such an expert by their side. "
A few more minutes passed. The fat merchant's last underling was stabbed in the shoulder by Jia Jing's saber, and the sword in his hand pierced into the waist of Jia Jing's comrade.
At the same time, Jia Jing and his comrade fell to the ground, heavily injured. Jia Jing followed, and with a swing of his saber, the head of the fat merchant's last underling fell to the ground.
The fat merchant was already heavily injured, but he did not beg for mercy as he sat by the side of the carriage. He probably knew that begging for mercy would be of no use at this moment.
"You can go." After saying this, Yuan Zhenyi's body flashed, and like a snake, he slid down the hill.
Jia Jing, who had just killed his opponent, was extremely exhausted. However, he saw Yuan Zhenyi's axe.
"Dang!" A crisp sound rang out. Jia Jing retreated a few steps and fell to the ground.
"Who are you? How dare you attack me. I am a subordinate of the Xuan Liang Region's young prince. We have not formed any enmity yet, as long as you let go... "
Jia Jing's words suddenly stopped. He saw Mo Wuji coming down the hill.
He naturally recognised Mo Wuji, and he also recognised Mo Xiangtong and Jing Lengbei, who were following behind Mo Wuji. At this moment, he knew that he was finished. Jing Lengbei's appearance here meant that these people dared to touch the young prince, so why would they not dare to touch a family servant like him?
"Pu!" Jia Jing's voice paused for a moment. Yuan Zhenyi's axe turned and split Jia Jing's head in half.
Following that, Yuan Zhenyi walked to Jia Jing's injured comrade and chopped down with his axe.
Aunt Eleven looked at Mo Wuji and said with a smile, "Wuji, I told you that there's no need for help. With Zhenyi's abilities, these two soft-footed shrimps really aren't enough for him."
Even though he had experienced a life and death crisis in the Thunder Fog Forest, Mo Wuji had never seen such a bloody scene. For a moment, his senses were not used to it.
"This lowly one, Yong Yong, thanks Young Master for saving my life. If not for Young Master's timely arrival, this lowly one would have lost his life. This lowly one is willing to offer all of his wealth to young master to repay you for saving my life … "What Mo Wuji did not expect was that after the fat merchant saw Mo Wuji, he actually stood up shakily and cupped his fists to thank Mo Wuji for saving his life.
Mo Wuji didn't believe that this fella couldn't tell that he wasn't here to save someone, but to kill. He couldn't help but admire this fella's lack of integrity.
"Fatty, you're thinking too much. Let me ask you, where did you get these two women from? Don't find excuses, and don't talk about conditions. If I'm in a good mood, I might give you a quick death. If I'm in a bad mood, I won't kill you, but I'll peel off your skin and pull out your tendons. "
Mo Wuji saw that Yong Yong was about to speak, so he directly stopped him from pleading.
"It's the Wu Xue Prefecture's Ling Yong's horse bandits, the Black Tailed Bees …"
"So you're saying that the ones who destroyed the Jing Clan were the Black Tailed Bees?" Mo Wuji asked on behalf of Jing Lengbei, who was trembling beside him.
"I don't know, I really don't know," Yong Yong said hurriedly.
Mo Wuji looked at Jing Lengbei and said, "It should be done by the Black Tailed Bees. There's no need to ask any further."
Jing Lengbei kneeled on the ground and sobbed. She had heard of the Black Tailed Bees' name before.
Mo Wuji raised his knife and chopped off Yong Yong's head. The splattered blood made him feel extremely uncomfortable, but he knew that there were some things that he had to experience. There was no need to talk about how this fatty sold Mo Xiangtong. Just based on the fact that he sold women, Mo Wuji would not show any mercy.
Yuan Zhenyi skillfully searched the bodies of the crowd for gold and silver coins. Including the gold notes, he found a total of 16,000 gold coins and 1,000 silver coins.
Yuan Zhenyi gave all the gold coins to Mo Wuji. This trip was originally suggested by Mo Wuji.
Mo Wuji did not keep the gold coins, but took out 20,000 gold notes. He divided the money into three portions and gave them to Aunt Eleven, Mo Xiangtong and Jing Lengbei respectively, "Aunt Eleven, quickly bring them away from here."
"Okay," Aunt Eleven did not waste any time, and kept the gold notes.
Mo Xiangtong knew that Mo Wuji was going to the royal capital, and would not be able to bring her along. Moreover, Mo Wuji was also a member of her Mo Clan, so she did not say much and kept the gold coins. The hesitant Jing Lengbei had seen Aunt Eleven's actions. She knew that rejecting it would only make Aunt Eleven unhappy, so she simply kept the gold coins.
"Wuji, in the future …" Mo Xiangtong looked at Mo Wuji with some hesitation.
Mo Wuji said solemnly, "In the future, if I have the ability, I will settle the Mo Clan's debts."
There was one more sentence that Mo Wuji did not say. If he did not have the ability in the future, then he could only forget about the Mo Clan's matters.
"Let's go," Aunt Eleven mounted the horse. Her words and actions were very straightforward.
Jing Lengbei walked in front of Mo Wuji and Yuan Zhenyi, bowed twice, and without saying a word, she mounted the horse as well.
"I really admire this Jing Lengbei. There are some things that need not be said," Yuan Zhenyi said appreciatively as he watched Aunt Eleven and co leave.
After the trio's voices disappeared under the moonlight, Yuan Zhenyi said, "Let's go too. We can just leave these corpses here."
Mo Wuji looked at Jia Jing and said, "We can just leave the other corpses here, but Jia Jing must go missing."
Yuan Zhenyi immediately understood and laughed, "Wuji, this is a good move. I actually did not think of it."
…
After the hustle and bustle of the night, the seaside seemed rather quiet in the morning.
"Ah …" A scream rang out in Yue Hai Restaurant. It could even be heard outside the restaurant. A waiter ran to the door as fast as he could.
Number A17 knocked on the door forcefully, "May I ask what help you need?"
At this time, to Yue Hai Restaurant, everyone who stayed here was an ordinary guest. There was no such thing as a young prince. Any room here could be the young prince of a state or a prince of a prefecture. Hence, a young prince or a young prince was worthless here.
Tuo Baqi's angry voice could be heard, "Last night, someone knocked me out … No, that's not right, they even snatched my female slave … Wait … Where's Jia Jing? Why isn't he back yet? "
After saying the first and second sentence, Tuo Baqi finally remembered what he had instructed his men to do before he was knocked out last night. He immediately quietened down. Even if he was a young prince, he would be in serious trouble if he ordered his men to assassinate any of the merchants here. Once he was discovered, it would be a different matter if he could even walk out of this place, much less the imperial capital.
"This is none of your business. I just had a nightmare." Tuo Baqi waved his hand at the waiter. This kind of thing could not be spoken of.
The waiter had a look of disdain on his face as he turned around and left, no longer caring about this crazy young prince.
