Wang Dafu was just fantasizing about the beautiful life he and Jiujiu will have in the future. Just as he is about to hug and kiss his and Jiujiu's child, he is suddenly scolded by a voice.
Wang Dafu raises his head and sees Butler Li's wrinkled, dark, shiny, and angry old face.
The little beauty in front of him just now has turned into an ugly old man in the blink of an eye. Wang Dafu turns his head away in disgust and spits out a mouthful of saliva.
Wang Dafu picks up his machete and looks at Butler Li who is also holding a machete on his horse. He coldly snorts, "You old man, half of your body is already buried in the ground and you still want to be a hero and save the beauty. If you know what's good for you, I will let you go this time because you know the little beauty. If you don't know what's good for you and insist on stopping me, then don't blame me for being merciless."
With Butler Li's bad temper, he immediately spits out, "Who do you think you are to say that you will let me go? Watch my blade."
Butler Li raises his machete and smashes it at Wang Dafu.
Wang Dafu quickly raises his machete to block.
For a moment, the two of them are locked in a fierce fight.
The guards are also locked in a fierce fight with the bandits who are blocking their way.
Seeing that the sky is about to turn dark, they still haven't won. Just as Jiujiu is wondering if she should let Little White play a hero and save the beauty, a man wearing armor appears out of nowhere. In a few moves, he subdues Wang Dafu who is locked in a fierce fight with Butler Li.
With a long sword at Wang Dafu's throat, Wang Dafu doesn't dare to move.
After the man subdues Wang Dafu, a troop suddenly appears.
The bandits under Wang Dafu are originally a motley crew. Naturally, they are not a match for the well-trained soldiers and are easily subdued in a few moves.
When Butler Li was young, he was also a hero, but now he is old. After fighting with Wang Dafu for such a long time, he is already an arrow at the end of its flight. He is only supporting himself by protecting Jiujiu. Now that he sees Jiujiu is safe, his vision goes black and he faints.
"Uncle Li ~"
Jiujiu hurriedly had someone bring Steward Li into the carriage, while she walked to the soldier who subdued Wang Dafu. She curtsied and said, "Thank you, General, for saving my life."
The man waited for his subordinates to tie Wang Dafu up and take him away before slowly turning around.
The moment he saw Jiujiu, a trace of amazement flashed across the man's eyes.
There was no other reason but because Jiujiu was simply too beautiful.
Her appearance was even prettier than the princesses he had seen before. Her eyebrows seemed to be frowning, as if they were covered by a layer of mist. However, her eyes were very bright and filled with gratitude.
She didn't know if it was because of fear or gratitude, but her cheeks flushed red.
The man coughed to cover up his loss of composure. "It's nothing. It's not worth mentioning."
"To the general, it's nothing, but to me, it's a life-saving grace."
Jiujiu sighed in her heart. It was really a case of wearing out iron shoes in a fruitless search, only to find it without any effort.
She was still pondering how she could get in touch with the general. She didn't expect to meet him so soon.
The person who saved Jiujiu was none other than the general who Jiujiu's mission target, Ling Xiao.
Speaking of Ling Xiao, he was a well-known figure.
The Ling family had been in the army for generations. The Ling family's ancestor was the most trusted general under the founding emperor. Since the founding of the country, all the men of the Ling family had been in the army.
Since ancient times, only a few people had returned from the battlefield. The men of the Ling family had been in the army for generations. Dying on the battlefield was their final destination. However, the men of the Ling family had no complaints. In their opinion, rather than dying a mediocre death, it was better to lick the blood on the blade and kill a few more enemies.
And Ling Xiao was the last man of the Ling family in this generation.
Ling Xiao went to the battlefield at the age of thirteen. The first time he went to the battlefield, he killed dozens of enemies. When he was sixteen, his father died on the battlefield. In the face of danger, he took up the command of the army with his tender shoulders. In just ten years, he struck fear into the hearts of the ferocious Xiongnu people. He even became a magic weapon that the Xiongnu people used to make children cry at night.
Ling Xiao guarded the border for five years, and the Xiongnu people didn't dare to cross the border.
It had been eighteen years since Ling Xiao went to war at the age of thirteen.
Ling Xiao was the last man of the Ling family. The emperor was grateful for the loyalty of the Ling family and sent three imperial edicts to summon Ling Xiao back to the capital. He wanted to give Ling Xiao a good marriage partner.
Ling Xiao spent half a month settling the matters at the border before returning to the capital.
When he returned, Ling Xiao had already made up his mind.
He had been on the battlefield for a long time, so naturally, he would end up dying on the battlefield.
No matter who he married, he was destined to not be able to give the other party a good marriage. Rather than wasting the life of a girl, he would rather die alone on the battlefield.
On the way back, Ling Xiao heard from the nearby residents that there were bandits roaming around the area. They often stopped passing merchants.
Ling Xiao took the initiative to stay behind and exterminate the bandits.
Who would have thought that not only would he exterminate the bandits, but he would also save a delicate and beautiful woman.
Ling Xiao looked at the petite and beautiful girl in front of him, and his voice unconsciously became gentle. "It was my duty. Miss, you don't need to worry."
Jiujiu smiled faintly. "Protecting the country is the general's duty, but saving me is not. Since the general saved me, you are my benefactor."
Jiujiu smiled faintly, two dimples appearing at the corners of her mouth. Then, Ling Xiao heard Jiujiu say to him, "This little girl has no way to repay the general's life-saving grace. I can only repay the general's great kindness with my body."
"General … cough cough cough … it's fine. General, please continue."
Chen Pu, who had already tied up all the bandits and was reporting to Ling Xiao about today's battle, wisely turned and left when he heard Jiujiu say that she could only repay the general's kindness with her body.
Chen Pu couldn't help but sigh with emotion as he walked.
So everything that was written in the script was true.
A hero saving a beauty could really get the girl to repay the general's kindness with her body.
When Ling Xiao first saw Jiujiu, he thought that Jiujiu was delicate and delicate, like a fragile glass.
Now that he heard Jiujiu's almost direct words, Ling Xiao, who had never been spoken to like this by a woman for the first time, instantly blushed.
However, because Ling Xiao spent most of his time at the border, being battered by the wind and rain, his skin was rough and coarse, and his face was even darker. Even if he blushed, it wouldn't be obvious.
Ling Xiao clenched his fist and coughed lightly. "Miss, you're too serious. Don't say such things casually in the future."
After Ling Xiao finished speaking, he glanced at Steward Li and the other injured servants who had already arrived. He took the initiative to say, "I'll send someone to send Miss down the mountain."
Jiujiu and Ling Xiao met for the first time, and it was already very abrupt for her to say that she would repay the general with her body. Now that Ling Xiao rejected her, Jiujiu naturally wouldn't say such things again. She smiled and said, "Thank you, general. This little girl will never forget your great kindness."
After Jiujiu finished speaking, she sat down on the horse.
The curtains of the carriage slowly fell, completely covering Jiujiu's stunning face.
Watching the carriage slowly move forward, Ling Xiao unconsciously clutched his chest.
