"Trash, a bunch of trash." The man with the silver snake mask picked up the cup beside him and smashed it at the man in black kneeling on the ground.
"There are so many of you, but you're all dead. What's the point of keeping you?"
The man was so angry that his entire being was burning with rage. He didn't expect that a mere woman would cause so many of his men to die.
Damn it, when did Highland Barley become so powerful?
And that woman, since she didn't know what was good for her, then don't blame him for destroying her.
"Master, we're not the only ones who want to kill her. It seems that there are others who want to protect her."
The man in black who was hit by the hot tea didn't even make a sound. He quickly reported what they found.
Although they weren't as skilled as others, they didn't want to face their master's anger at all.
That would be too terrifying.
The man touched the mask on his face and narrowed his eyes, revealing a sinister look.
"When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. Do you understand?"
Xunmi, oh Xunmi, I didn't expect so many people to want your life. How much debt do you owe?
Beauty debt, love debt, or life debt?
Ha …
"Yes, master." The man in black immediately took the order and left, not wanting to stay a moment longer.
The man waited for them to leave. He turned and went inside. He changed his clothes, took off his mask, and left from the other side.
It was time for him to meet her. After not seeing her for a few years, he didn't know if she was still the same.
Xunmi was carried down the carriage by Highland Barley. He put her on the prepared wheelchair and pushed her into the inn.
She had already experienced it once in the valley, so she wasn't surprised.
She used the marrow cleansing pill and dahuan pill to nourish the original owner's leg. It would recover in three to five days if it was fast, or ten days if it was slow.
"Shopkeeper, one of the best rooms. I'm preparing a light meal and sending it over."
Highland Barley put a golden leaf on the counter and said coldly.
The shopkeeper's eyes lit up. He took the golden leaf and bit it. He found that it was hard and shouted with a smile.
"Waiter, waiter, bring the two ladies to Sky Number One."
He held the golden leaf and was very happy, as if he had never seen so much money before.
Actually, it was more or less the same. This was just a small town, and not many people came here. At most, they could earn some money.
Xunmi was wearing a white bamboo hat, so her face couldn't be seen clearly. However, the barley she was pushing wasn't covered at all. For a moment, the other customers in the shop all looked at the two of them.
Some were curious, some were probing, some were meaningful, and some were … lustful.
XunMi silently thought to herself. She really could meet these kinds of people in any world. In the end, they'll all just be cannon fodder.
After dinner, if it was in modern times, nightlife would begin. But in ancient times, it was dark and it was time to sleep.
Leaning against the window, the moon tonight was quite bright and round, but … There were too many flies and mosquitoes.
Looking at the shadows reflected on the ground of the courtyard downstairs, she did not know how many people there were.
On the tree, on the roof, and next door, were they going to make dumplings?
"Miss?"
Highland Barley had been standing behind Xunmi the whole time, so he naturally saw the current situation.
He tightened his grip on the sword in his hand, not because he was afraid of them, but because he was worried that they would disturb Miss's normal sleep time.
Xunmi took off the jade flute hanging on her waist and turned it. The silver light was faintly discernible.
"Go, leave one alive."
Along the way, there were countless assassinations. How could she not know that there was a spy in the valley?
But she didn't know how many spies there were. The spies she had met before were not the same group.
A white figure flashed in front of her eyes. Xunmi put the jade flute to her lips and slowly played it.
In the silent night, the slowly flowing notes had a kind of bewitching charm.
It was like a demon tempting the forbidden fruit, eroding the listener's heart step by step.
At the same time, it was like a signal for action.
The hidden people immediately divided into two groups. One group entangled the people in the courtyard, and the other group appeared in the room.
In their eyes, Xunmi without Highland Barley was a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.
They didn't directly attack, but stared at her back, as if thinking about something.
Xunmi slowly turned around. The people who had been staring at her were instantly disappointed.
They thought that they could see what she looked like, but she was wearing a veil in the middle of the night.
"How do you want to die?"
Xunmi lowered her eyes and stroked the jade flute in her hand. Her clear voice was especially cold in the night.
It was like spring water flowing down from a snowy mountain, and it was so cold that it made the people shiver.
They were all experienced killers, but they were frightened by the first encounter. It was simply unbearable.
"Let's choose the way to die for you. Let's go."
At this moment, they didn't distinguish who was who. They joined forces and attacked Xunmi together.
Although they didn't think that she was weak, they didn't think too highly of her either.
But when she really attacked, only they knew the horror in their hearts.
For a moment, the room was filled with the light of swords and the sound of things breaking.
From the beginning to the end, the woman in white with a veil leaning against the window didn't move at all.
Except for the jade flute in her hand that was stained with a little blood, even her hair was not messed up.
The killers, who were full of confidence just now, almost didn't see how she attacked.
But the corpses in front of them all told them that she was the hunter, and they were the prey.
This knowledge made them want to retreat.
But before they could move, a white light flashed in front of them. They widened their eyes and slowly fell down in disbelief.
Before their consciousness collapsed, they heard the woman who exuded tranquility say.
"You used your lives to prove one thing. In a battle, if you don't advance, you will retreat. Don't hesitate."
Because the price of hesitation was their lives. They knew it, but it was too late.
After finishing the Highland Barley, she dragged a half-dead killer in. Her eyes didn't change at all.
As someone who was taught by her, she knew Miss's strength too well.
It was unfathomable.
"Miss, please rest in the next room."
The floor was full of blood and there were so many corpses. It was definitely not a place for people to sleep.
Xunmi turned the wheelchair and directly went over the wooden wall that they had destroyed.
After running around for a day, she was indeed tired.
There shouldn't be anyone around tonight. She could have a good night's sleep.
Pan Ling and the others, who were waiting downstairs to save the damsel in distress, looked at each other and swallowed their saliva in horror.
"Boss, I think, compared to them, we … are so weak."
"…" The bearded boss had a vein on his forehead. How could he not know?
How long had it been, and those people were wiped out?
Initial estimation was that there were 50 to 60 killers. So cruel.
"When we really go out to help, are we going to protect them or are they going to protect us?"
Pan Ling asked straightforwardly again. In an instant, she received a few sad gazes.
"…" She was just telling the truth. Was it so difficult to tell the truth these days?
