With her dual plant and beast-mastery superpowers, Lu Wanyin is reborn back to her wedding night. Her husband is a general, strong and well-built. Unfortunately, the next day the new emperor orders...
Chapter 299 Killing the City Lord's Nephew
At this distance, Xie Jingci could see the movements on the city wall even without a telescope.
The actions of the soldiers guarding the city made the chill in his eyes even heavier: "They actually lowered the ladder directly from the city. They are simply courting death."
The city wall is the most important defense for the people in the city.
It is always the enemy who tries to build the ladders, but there is no soldier who builds the ladders himself.
Lu Wanyin rode her horse against the wind, casually tucking the loose hair behind her ears. "It seems like the person who will be the sacrificial spear has come to us on his own."
The exile team stopped about thirty meters in front of the city wall.
Several people were already standing at the city gate, staring at Lu Wanyin and the others, their eyes glowing green with excitement.
These people all held long swords in their hands.
But the hand holding the knife didn't seem very strong at first glance.
And the long sword, Lu Wanyin could see the rust on it at a glance.
Vulnerable.
The first person to come down blocked the front of the team.
He first carefully looked at Lu Wanyin and Xie Jingci's disguised faces.
Don’t know.
This girl is pretty.
Looking back, several soldiers were stunned.
So many beauties.
In their poor place, delicate flowers can't survive and the women all grow to be big and strong.
When has he ever seen so many beautiful women?
After Lu Wanyin's brutal training, the female soldiers' skin had become much rougher, but in the eyes of these soldiers, it was still so tender that you could pinch water out of it.
"Sir, sir, please speak."
The soldier standing behind him widened his eyes and subconsciously pushed the person in front of him.
It only said that a caravan was coming, but it didn't say that the caravan was bringing a group of beautiful girls with it.
"Yes, yes, what did you say?"
The leader wiped his saliva and stared at Lu Wanyin: "Young lady is the boss of the caravan."
Lu Wanyin felt annoyed and her face turned cold.
The next moment, she and Xie Jingci raised their hands together.
Bang.
Bang.
The soldier in front was shot twice between his eyebrows in an instant. His eyes widened and he slowly fell down.
Xie Jingci retracted his gun and glanced at the person on the ground nonchalantly: "Get someone who can talk."
The guards and female soldiers following behind the two men were all dumbfounded.
What's going on?
Just by raising his hand, the man was dead.
Did the general and his wife practice some unparalleled martial arts?
The soldiers were also frightened.
Until the snowflakes thrown by the dead body splashed on their faces, all the soldiers retreated back as if they had seen a ghost: "Dead, dead!"
"Really dead"
"Oh my God, how did he die?"
"No, he's dead. What should we do? The city lord won't let us go."
The dead person was actually a relative of the city lord.
He received news in advance that a caravan was entering the city, so he chose this time to wait, waiting for a big profit.
Who would have thought that before he could even taste the sweetness, he would lose his life.
Lu Wanyin didn't care about their feelings. She put away her gun and nodded to Xie Jingci very pertinently: "Good marksmanship."
Xie Jingci tilted his head and smiled: "Madam, too."
thump.
Boom.
The remaining soldiers finally couldn't bear it anymore and fell to the ground.
Lu Wanyin looked at their distraught faces coldly: "Remember us, anyone who wants to cause trouble is welcome at any time. Now, enter the city."
There were many people watching inside and outside the city gate, but no one dared to stop them.
More and more people came after hearing the news, and the team marched into the city in a mighty manner under the gaze of countless people.
Lu Wanyin walked forward while looking around.
Compared with the city walls, the houses in the city are much shorter.
On the entire street, there are only two two-story buildings, and the rest are basically one-story low houses.
There are even quite a few mud houses.
It is said to be a big city, but its conditions are not even as good as those of the small towns in Dasheng.
Lu Wanyin's gaze fell on the few ruins on the outermost edge. Before she could take a closer look, the sound of horse hooves came from afar.
She quickly turned her gaze and saw a tall and straight young man riding towards her.
As soon as he approached, the man immediately dismounted and bowed respectfully: "Your subordinate Di Er is here to take the master and the lady home."
go home
A strange feeling arose in Lu Wanyin's heart.
She has no home in the capital.
Neither the Chenyang Marquis Mansion nor the former general's mansion was her home.
This wild border town, which she had never been to, had already become her home.
Xie Jingci gently held Lu Wanyin's hand, smiled faintly and nodded: "Okay, let's go home."
Wrapped her hands warmly.
It brought warmth to Lu Wanyin's heart.
The guard who came to lead the way glanced at Lu Wanyin secretly.
Is this their mistress?
He finally met the legendary goddess.
God knows how many good brothers he has defeated in order to grab the job of leading the way today.
If it weren't for the magic medicine given by his wife, he would still be unable to get up.
Di Er happily climbed onto his horse and said, "Master, please follow me."
Lu Wanyin whipped her horsewhip and everyone quickened their pace.
The further you go, the more lively it becomes.
The wild winter is not the time for production and hunting.
People here are very idle.
Judging from their stature, they are generally much taller and stronger than people in the capital.
He has dark skin and muscular arms.
Occasionally there were a few women who were also wrapped up tightly to avoid the bad weather.
What surprised Lu Wanyin was that more and more people gathered on both sides, and they were obviously very curious, but no one dared to push forward.
They very consciously controlled their curiosity and made way for the team.
The contrast is huge.
Lu Wanyin was suspicious.
Are the folk customs so simple?
It seems to be quite different from the rumors.
Only after the huge group of exiles had passed did the people on both sides of the road breathe a sigh of relief.
"Is this the master of the group in the south of the city?"
"This demeanor, it's obvious that he is not an ordinary person."
"Nonsense, how can ordinary people raise such a group of devils?"
"Hush, what nonsense are you talking about? Those people don't want to live, but even the city lord can't do anything about them."
"What's the city lord? Even the people in the arena suffered at their hands. Otherwise, how could they be so willing to give such a huge mountain to them?"
"That's right! Last time, some bandits raided the city and tried to break out from the South Mountain, but they were wiped out before they could even cross the mountain."
The onlookers were silent for a moment.
That group of people seemed to appear out of nowhere, and as soon as they appeared, they defended Nanshan to the death.
Whoever comes will die, whoever plans to do so will be in trouble.
They seem to be invincible and have been fighting with a group of local bullies until now.
A few people stood on tiptoe to confirm that Lu Wanyin's group had gone far away, and then they snorted: "I don't know what's so good about that place in Nanshan. There's nothing except a few dead trees."
"That's right. Nanshan is only big in size, but other than that, it has nothing good to offer."
"That being said, if there is any benefit at all, Lord City Lord, would you mind throwing it away?"
"I don't know what the city lord's reaction is. I heard that his nephew was just killed by those two at the city gate. This is going to be a good show."
