Chapter 357: Wen Yan kills people

It takes four or five hours to get back to the capital from here.

Ning sighed that if they rode faster, they could still get back to the capital before the city gates were locked.

But this team walked at a leisurely pace and without any hurry.

Ning Tan's maid urged them to hurry up several times.

"Bang--"

Suddenly, there was a loud explosion above the tea shed.

Wen Yan looked up and saw that it was Chen Twelve's signal arrow. He was informing the others to meet up here.

The fat man and the sinister man also looked back, whispered a few words to each other, and then continued on their way.

Soon, dusk fell.

The team stopped at the most dangerous section of the mountain.

Ning Tan's maid went over again and asked, "What's going on? Why don't you leave?"

The muscular man grinned at the maid: "We've already arrived!"

The maid was so uncomfortable with his smile that she was afraid in her heart, but she pretended to be calm: "How did we get here? This is in the wilderness. I heard that there are bandits from time to time. It's safe now. We should leave quickly and go back early."

"As you said, this is a remote place, a long way from the capital. Why don't we stay here for one night and leave tomorrow?"

"It's a desolate place here, and bandits often roam around. Why don't we make a quick march and hurry to the city gate to rest there." The maid forced a smile and responded.

"What if we don't want to?" the leader said with a wicked smile.

At this time, the sinister man also pulled off the scarf on his face, revealing an ugly face.

The cold wind blew, and the wind-killing lantern on the carriage swayed.

In the dim light, the sinister man's ugly face could be vaguely seen.

There was also a twisted scar the size of a seal on his right cheek.

Meng Chifei said that among the bandits she killed, some had scars on their faces.

Could it be...that they are the bandits?

They had been lurking around Ning Tan, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

It seems that they are planning to take action here.

"Miss, run!" The maid suddenly turned around and ran towards the carriage.

However, she was ultimately just an ordinary maid who was a bit nimble.

The sinister man instantly drew the sword from his waist and slashed at the maid.

"ah……"

The maid let out a scream.

"Kite!" Ning Tan jumped off the carriage and saw this scene.

She was terrified and rushed over to hug her.

"The love between master and servant is so deep, let's die together!" Seeing that she was not dead, the sinister man stabbed her again.

Zhiyuan took it hard and pushed Ning Tan hard, "Miss, hurry up and leave! You have to survive!"

Then she spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground.

It all happened so fast that Wen Yan didn't have time to help.

Ning Tan and seven or eight servants were instantly hacked to death by the bandits lurking in the team.

Ning Tan glared at the bandits hatefully, lifted her skirt, turned around and ran into the woods.

Although Ning Tan looks thin and weak, he is not slow at all when running.

"Ning Tan, over here!" Wen Yan shouted at her.

Ning Tan recognized the woman's voice and didn't bother to tell whether she was a friend or an enemy. He ran straight into the dark woods.

The two ran in both directions.

"Give me your hand." Wen Yan shouted at her.

Ning Tan finally saw Wen Yan's face clearly. She was a young woman.

She was dressed like an ordinary girl, and her eyes were full of anxiety.

Without any hesitation, she reached out to Wen Yan.

Wen Yan grabbed her wrist and pulled hard, and Ning Tan also used the force to kick the ground, and she jumped lightly onto the horse's back and sat behind Wen Yan.

Wen Yan immediately turned his horse around and ran deep into the woods.

"Damn it! Don't let her get away! Chase her!"

The muscular man and the sinister man rode their horses into the woods.

Crunch...

Horse hooves stepped on the snow.

Ning Tan hugged Wen Yan's waist and asked nervously, "Where are we going?"

"Run for your life!" Wen Yan rode his horse and ran north.

In the opposite direction, the flares she had arranged in advance were launched into the sky.

'Bang...' The rocket exploded in the sky.

"Damn it, it's a signal arrow! They are calling their companions, hurry up and chase them, and end this quickly. Otherwise, we won't be able to get the remaining silver." The fat man shouted angrily, whipping the horse's butt hard with the whip.

The horse neighed and galloped out.

Even though Wen Yan is good at horse riding.

But her horse was carrying two people, which made the distance between them get closer and closer.

It wasn't long before they were surrounded.

There were seven or eight people on the other side, each of them holding a weapon.

"Run? Let's see where you want to run!" The sinister man circled around Wen Yan and the other man, mocking them, "Today, I will make sure you die without a burial place!"

Ning Tan gritted his teeth and said to the sinister man, "It's me you're looking for. I'll stay, and you let her go."

"Thank you for helping me. I will repay you for saving my life in the next life." Ning Tan thanked Wen Yan hurriedly and wanted to get off the horse.

Wen Yan pulled her back and said, "How could I send you to death just for my own safety?

Besides, if I snatch you away in front of them, I would be slapping them in the face.

I saw their faces clearly again, and they would never let me leave alive."

"You silly girl, I didn't expect you to be so smart. You saw through me right away." The sinister man licked the knife in his hand. "Since you're so smart, I'm going to make you die in agony!"

Ning Tan held Wen Yan's hand and said guiltily, "I'm sorry, I've gotten you into trouble. If we can survive, you will be my sister, and I will take good care of you."

"It's a deal!" Wen Yan raised her hand, and Ning Tan high-fived her without hesitation as a pledge of peace.

Then, Wen Yan raised his arm and pointed at the sinister man.

The sinister man thought she was provoking him before her death.

Who knows.

There was a whoosh sound of something breaking through the air.

A small arrow shot towards the sinister man.

The sinister man was a little slow to react and couldn't dodge in time, so the arrow pierced his left shoulder.

"Damn it, you dare to sneak attack me!" The sinister man was furious.

He wanted to kill her to vent his anger, but he was afraid that she had a hidden arrow, so he didn't dare to go forward rashly.

"So what if I attacked you? You're just a coward who only dares to use petty tricks. I don't think you're a man at all.

Wow, you are not a real eunuch!

Wouldn’t your family be extinct then?

Oh my, how pitiful! How can you be as pitiful as a stray dog ​​on the roadside! "

Wen Yan's venomous provocation provoked the sinister man to the point of losing his mind. He rushed towards Wen Yan with a knife in hand: "Ahhh... How dare you call me a dog? I'll kill you!"

"Ouch, I'm so scared!" Wen Yan was so frightened that her face turned pale, her arms waved wildly, and she took the opportunity to shoot another arrow.

"Puff"

The sleeve arrow pierced directly into the sinister man's neck.

The sinister man covered his neck, and blood flowed out through his fingers, dripping out.

The sinister man looked at his hands in disbelief, making a painful sound in his throat.

In a few seconds, he fell off his horse, convulsed a few times, and lost his life.

The muscular man and his men were all shocked.

"You...you actually dare to kill someone!"
