The sound of the horse's hooves stopped almost at the same time as her. Then she saw Wang Yan, who was holding a long knife with a serious face.
But Wang Yan never dreamed that when he finally got rid of those troublesome guys and came to rescue these women and children, he would see such a scene.
After being a bandit for so many years, he had seen scenes that were a hundred times more tragic than this.
But in front of him, the women who he regarded as weak all day in the backyard, were all holding weapons majestically, and there were more than a dozen men lying at their feet.
Seeing that he had come, Mrs. Zhu said with disdain, "You useless thing. It's too late for you to come now."
"Oh, oh …"
Wang Yan scratched his head with some embarrassment.
He just wanted to know, what was going on?
"Brother Wang."
Lin Mengya also sorted out her emotions at this time, came out from the corner, and said to Wang Yan, "Have the things in front been settled?"
Wang Yan nodded, couldn't help but feel that the defenseless girl in front of him should be the woman he knew.
"It's all settled, now Master Huo is leading everyone to clean up the battlefield!
By the way, did you encounter any trouble? "
Before Lin Mengya could answer, sister-in-law Zhu said disdainfully, "What trouble can we have? It's just a few bastards who wanted to take the opportunity to attack! "
After that, two bright eyes looked at Lin Mengya, with indescribable admiration and pride in his tone.
"We have a female military counselor, even if there are a few more, they will still die!"
Female military counselor? Wang Yan's eyes were full of doubts.
However, after seeing all the women's eyes fall on Lin Mengya, the latter immediately declined, "It's good cooperation."
Ah Er and Ah San almost didn't fight, because this group of women who had released their nature and instincts were really fierce.
It was said that when two armies fought, the brave would win.
This moderate victory was indeed due to the bravery of sister-in-law Zhu and the others.
Wang Yan thought that maybe he was probably still asleep.
He only regained consciousness when Sister-in-law Zhu ordered him to move the corpses to the front yard in a daze.
His eyes involuntarily fell on Miss Song, who was surrounded by women.
Rubbing his chin, he passed this task to his brothers and turned around to look for his boss.
Lin Mengya was still thinking about the person who had run out of Mr. Huo's room.
From the looks of it, that person must have been hit by a hidden weapon.
However, she knew where Huo Jinyao's room was. Her brothers in the stronghold also went in and out. Even Miss Tao had been there once, but she didn't see any traps.
From the looks of it, either as long as Master Huo wasn't in the house, he would set up a trap to guard the door, or Master Huo was doing it on purpose. It was a trap to lure them into the trap.
She thought about it and felt that the latter was more likely.
She didn't expect Huo Jinyao to invite her into that room that night.
As soon as she entered, she saw that the man was shirtless and Wu Ying was applying medicine for him.
She twitched her nose subconsciously. The medicine was a top-notch medicine for wounds, and most importantly, she was actually somewhat familiar with the prescription of this medicine.
"Sit."
From the moment she entered, Huo Jinyao's gaze had been fixed on her, as if he wanted to see through her.
Lin Mengya sat down gracefully, intentionally avoiding his eyes.
It was not that she felt guilty, but she felt that it was a little impolite to look at him now.
Master Huo's wound was not deep, but it looked scary.
However, it was only because the weapon that had injured him was a little special. It was a barb, so it caused some lacerations.
He looked at the girl in front of him inquiringly. Although she had her head lowered, her attitude was not one bit timid. He couldn't help but reduce the suspicion in his heart by 30%.
"Boss, the wound has been bandaged. Don't use too much strength for the next few days, and don't let it get wet."
Wu Ying finished dressing, gave a few instructions, and then left with the medicine.
The two of them fell into silence.
In the end, it was Master Huo who spoke first, but at this time, his tone seemed to be mixed with a little special emotion.
"Thank you, miss, for protecting the women in the stronghold for me."
Although he said this politely, she had already sensed that there was a pattern in it.
She couldn't help but sigh in her heart.
It seemed that Master Huo still suspected her.
Well, if he could be so easily fooled by her, how could he be the leader of Black Tiger Stronghold?
She looked up, and there was no fear or frustration on her face after being exposed. Instead, she asked with a smile, "How is the Marquis's injury?"
Master Huo's tone was a little stiff.
"It's fine, thank you for your concern. But there's one thing I don't understand. Who are you, and why did you come to my Black Tiger Stronghold? "
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
But she didn't sense any murderous intent from Master Huo that made her hair stand on end.
It seemed that he was really grateful to her for saving those people in the back mountain.
Her heart kept swaying between lying and being honest, but in the end, she chose to tell the truth.
"I'm not Old Master Song's niece, but I'm not your enemy either.
This time, I came up the mountain to find a life-saving talisman for Old Master Song and his family. As for other things, I can't tell you.
After all, everyone has secrets that they don't want others to know, don't you? "
She said it clearly, but Master Huo was not satisfied.
His brown eyes were locked on her, as if he could kill her in the next moment.
But Lin Mengya didn't give an inch, and looked at him fearlessly.
Master Huo couldn't help but be shocked.
Where did this girl come from, and why was she so imposing?
She was even comparable to the famous master of the Gong family in David City!
"Even if what you said is the truth, I've never liked scheming people.
This time, you've saved my family, so I can let bygones be bygones.
But from now on, you must leave Black Tiger Stronghold immediately! "
Lin Mengya nodded, but didn't continue to argue.
She knew that once she was exposed, she would face such an outcome.
But before she left, she couldn't help but remind Master Huo.
"Master Huo is indeed a hero who can distinguish between kindness and hatred.
But sometimes, the people in the stronghold are not as virtuous as you. "
She could see that Master Huo, Wang Yan, and Wu Ying were not ordinary people.
Furthermore, this operation could have been done on purpose by Huo Shaoheng.
But they didn't expect that someone would come up to them from behind.
This meant that their plan was actually being used by someone else.
The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind.
If Sister-in-law Zhu and the others didn't fight back today, the ending would not have been like this.
After saying that, she went back to pack her things.
Without alerting anyone, she sneaked down the mountain.
When Sister-in-law Zhu excitedly went to look for her, she couldn't find her.
When she heard that Master Huo had asked her to leave, she immediately went to Master Huo's room.
"Master Huo! I heard that Sister Song is here. I'm looking for her! "
Sister-in-law Zhu, who had just rushed in, didn't see Master Huo looking at the window in a daze.
"She left."
"Left? Where did she go? "
Sister-in-law Zhu was in high spirits when Master Huo said calmly, "I asked her to go down the mountain. It's too dangerous here. It's not suitable for her."
Huo Xiao pinched the bridge of his nose, feeling confused and disordered.
Previously, he did have a good impression of Song Xiang, but it was only a good impression.
Now that he knew that she might have gone up the mountain with a hidden identity, he couldn't help feeling angry that he had been deceived.
Now that she was gone, he felt a little empty in his heart. He was very annoyed.
"Boss, how can Miss Song leave?"
Sister-in-law Zhu widened her eyes and questioned loudly, "Boss, you didn't see how smart Miss Song is. I've lived for almost half my life, but today is the only day I feel comfortable.
If she stays, perhaps even the girls of Black Tiger Bastion will become mountain bandits in the future! "
Huo Xiao felt helpless. Being a mountain bandit was just a temporary plan. Why did Sister-in-law Zhu say that it was a good job?
Although Sister-in-law Zhu was unwilling, she didn't dare to cross her boss's bottom line. She could only grumble and leave.
However, before she left, she said resentfully, "Boss, if you want to marry a wife, you should marry someone like her!
I think Miss Song is so pretty and smart. She might be married off at the foot of the mountain. Don't regret it then! "
When Huo Xiao heard that she was going to marry someone, he became even more annoyed.
What he didn't expect was that the culprit who had upset him had also encountered a problem that was neither too big nor too small at this moment.
Lin Mengya looked at the group of bandits who had surrounded her and treated her like a fat sheep. She felt a little impatient.
"Ah Da, I'll leave him to you."
The bandits were stunned for a moment before they burst into laughter.
What Ah Da? Could it be that this girl was so scared that she became hysterical?
However, in the next 30 minutes, they realized that they were in the wrong.
"Don't, don't kill me!"
The last survivor knelt in front of the three brothers. His body was trembling and his face was pale.
Lin Mengya glanced at him and asked calmly, "Which mountain are you from? Why are you here?"
The bandit was not as courageous as the two fellows she found at the back mountain of the Black Tiger Bastion. He replied in a trembling voice, "I, I'm from the 'Ten Evil Bastion'. I'm here to deliver an invitation to the leader of the Black Tiger Bastion."
Ten Evil Bastion?
Lin Mengya had heard of this name before.
Since this place was not far from the gathering place of the ancient clans, it did not belong to any country or power.
Over the years, the power of the ancient clans had been shrinking. Due to the internal strife between the aristocratic families, Wei Country had no time to care about the outside world.
That was why there was such a large empty area that no one could control.
As a result, it became a shelter for bandits and thieves.
The Ten Evil Bastion was one of the more powerful mountain strongholds.
However, the most special thing was that the manager of this mountain stronghold was a woman in her thirties.
