Scarlett hadn't expected someone to come in mid-journey. It was the enemy mentioned by Mandrill, the black-faced devil Gu Beiheng who wanted to skin and tear apart his tendons.
He tried hard to make some noise, but he forgot that the noise here was always very loud.
Everyone is used to it.
But I don't like to hear him torture people like this.
They ignored the noises here and even hid away when they heard any.
Seeing Scarlett trembling, Gu Beiheng stepped forward to stop him.
The effects of being drunk for a thousand days are still there.
For a moment, his men were unable to control their strength and only heard a "crack".
Scar's head became limp and motionless, falling to the ground like a puddle of mud.
Su Qi blinked. How could this man be so ruthless? He had agreed to cut him into pieces before killing him, but he just twisted his neck so lightly?
Gu Beiheng knew that he was in trouble.
Looks innocent.
"Qiqi, don't blame me. Who knew this neck was as soft as noodles, and he kept moving around like that?" Gu Beiheng's bronze face was embarrassed. "I just touched him lightly, and he just..."
"I don't blame you." Su Qi's face was covered with frost. "Even if I die, I will be cut into pieces."
Gu Beiheng quickly agreed: "I'm familiar with this job. I'll do it, you don't have to do it." He directly picked up the machete in the corner and pointed it at Scar's neck, then turned his head to look at Su Qi. "You go to the outer room."
It’s better not to let the little woman see the bloody scene.
Su Qi didn't let Gu Beiheng help him, and walked out with the girl in his arms.
He was exiled for more than a month.
Judging from her appearance, the girl is skinny and weighs only about 70 pounds.
After carrying him to the ground in the outer room, Su Qi opened his cloak.
Everywhere I look, I see all kinds of wounds.
Some are still bleeding.
Su Qi suppressed her inner discomfort, and with trembling hands, she took out water from the space to clean her. She then applied some medicine to her.
She didn't wake up, only her furrowed brows moved slightly.
It was like being trapped in a nightmare.
Su Qi used silver needles to prick her waist a few times, these needles prevented her from getting pregnant. If she accidentally got pregnant with Scar's child, wouldn't she dig up his grave and burn it in the middle of the night?
Treat the wounds on her body.
Su Qi then changed her into clean clothes.
Then wrapped it up with a clean cloak. Gu Beiheng asked softly from inside:
"Qiqi, can I come out now?"
"Come out."
"Get me some water to wash." There was no blood on Gu Beiheng's body, but his hands were indeed dirty after touching Scar.
Gu Beiheng didn't let Su Qi see what was happening inside the room, and he didn't control the force enough to chop up too much flesh. He felt a little confused today, and there was still a bit of a violent gene beating in his body.
It would be bad if the little woman got scared and ignored him.
Su Qi asked Gu Beiheng to hold the girl wrapped in the cloak, and he glanced at her with a frown.
He tied the two ends of the cloak with a rope and then held it in his hand. He put one hand around Su Qi's waist and slipped out through the back door.
Su Qi looked very confused at the moment.
I was determined not to let him get drunk for a thousand days. This guy would be too unreliable if he got drunk for a thousand days.
Walking towards the crowded area, Su Qi and Gu Beiheng smelled a pungent smell.
There were also wailing sounds from the surrounding woods.
This is the laxative taking effect.
"Damn it, someone give us some badly cooked meat. I'm almost fainting."
"I didn't even dare to stand up. I didn't even have time to go to the toilet, so I had to run to the woods to solve the problem."
"Forget about the toilet. It's all taken."
"Ouch, ouch, it hurts so much."
“Puff…”
A scene of chrysanthemums blooming all over the mountain...
Su Qi immediately took out two masks, put one on herself and gave the other to Gu Beiheng.
This method is a bit time-consuming.
She and Gu Beiheng were already dizzy from the smoke and hurried into the room where the official was being held.
Gu Beiheng went in, put the person he was holding on the ground, and took off the mask on his face.
"Gu Beiheng. Are you really here?"
Peng Laosan was annoyed. Was this stupid general coming here to die?
The bearded man's cold face was expressionless, but his hand, leaning against the wall, trembled slightly. He had been asked to take care of him several times, but he hadn't expected Gu Beiheng to come over at this time.
Bringing Su Qi here to die?
"You shouldn't have come. Leave now."
Yao Liu glared and growled:
"What do you mean you shouldn't have come? I said you're here just in time. Let's quickly slip away and get down the mountain. Damn, these bandits of mine are enjoying themselves, leaving me with dirty water and steamed buns."
"Please speak less." Yao Wu's position was not high, but he was the elder brother and his words carried some weight.
"Hurry up and leave? Do you know how many patrolmen there are?" Gu Beiheng glanced at them coldly, just like his imposing manner in the northwest. It made people inexplicably respect him.
The momentum of looking down on the world.
As if he was the one in control of everything.
"Peng Laosan, you two go to the back mountain and light a fire. Light the firewood in the bandit's den." Seeing that the remaining officers were silent, Gu Beiheng raised his eyelids and began to issue orders. "Qiu Aotian, take a few skilled men to the southern mountain pass. If you encounter anyone on patrol, come and kill them.
The rest of the people, along with those in the adjacent houses, should retreat. Remember to go east under the large banyan tree, where there's a path for carriages. There are many carriages on Hulu Mountain; we can borrow a few to bring people over.
Gu Beiheng made orderly arrangements.
No one else's opinion was asked.
When he gave orders, he always assigned tasks.
Don't ask for people's opinions.
After saying this, Gu Beiheng took Su Qi's hand and walked out.
Peng Laosan excitedly patted Yao Liu beside him and said, "The Northwest General in my mind is back."
Yao Liu rubbed his shoulder, which was sore from being slapped. Then he came to his senses, and Gu Beiheng's eyes were so scary.
He wanted to retort, but Gu Beiheng glanced at him lightly. He was so frightened that he forgot everything.
If he dared to say another word, he would be killed with a glare.
"Is it his turn to give orders?" Yao Liu muttered softly.
Yao Wu laughed:
"Don't be so unconvinced. He was once a great general in the Northwest. Even if he's down and out now, he's still better off than others.
If he hadn't come to Hulu Mountain, we would have been in great pain, if not dead." Yao Wu was convinced by Su Qi and his wife.
If he didn't have a family to support and official duties to attend to, he really wanted to settle down with them in Jinyang Prefecture.
Su Qi and Gu Beiheng didn't care about what happened next.
The two of them went to the main courtyard to find the mandrill.
The main courtyard is easy to find; you can vaguely see the largest one. Others have several rooms, but the Mandrill's is a separate courtyard standing on the top of the hill.
As soon as they arrived at the main courtyard, they saw Hong Liu'er, who was in disheveled, carrying Ang'er out of the door.
The two sides looked at each other.
Hong Liuer smiled at Su Qi, "Su Qi, I knew you would come. But you shouldn't have come. These beasts are not worth saving."
"There are still many people worth saving." Su Qi saw hatred on Hong Liuer's face.
That hatred was not directed at Su Qi, but at the people who hurt her.
"The mandrill ran away. He ate something that made him feel strange. A man in black came and took him away." Hong Liuer handed Su Qi a jade pendant. "I took it from him. I think it might be of some help to you."
Hong Liu'er was grateful for Su Qi's help, and she remembered the kindness she had received for a thousand years. She was afraid she would never have the chance to repay him, so she decided to do something within her ability.
Su Qi took it and handed it to Gu Beiheng.
"Let's go in first." Su Qi turned to Hong Liu'er and said, "Hong Liu'er, walk your own way from now on. Don't follow those people."
Hong Liu'er laughed miserably and said:
"He has my indenture in his hands. He's also threatening me with Anger's life. I have my own plans for the future.
What you can’t earn is fate.”
Hong Liu'er walked a few steps with An Ge'er in her arms and then turned back to say:
"The mandrill will not give up. You must be careful of this person."
