"He didn't even call me. Is it because he doesn't want to share with me or something?" Li Ruo said, pretending to be angry.
No, she was indeed a little angry.
But it's not for profit sharing.
Uncle Luo wanted to say something, but then swallowed it back.
Li Ruo is gone.
Regardless of Xie Muniao.
They still ate chicken that night.
But strangely, I didn't have much of an appetite.
She shared her bowl of chicken with Dazhu's children, who were among the few children who survived the flood.
Most of the children were separated from their families in the flood, died, or were eaten in some dark corner.
The Lin family looked at Li Ruo as if she were a fairy, and thanked her repeatedly.
After returning to the room, Li Yi asked, "Sister, is something on your mind?"
"You noticed that too?" Li Ru patted his head. "I've been neglecting you lately."
"You did it to protect us. I don't blame you at all. On the contrary, I feel that I should have helped you more."
"You've become much braver than before, which is a big improvement."
Li Yi rarely received praise, and her dark eyes sparkled. "It's all thanks to my elder sister's excellent teaching. I want to be as capable as my elder sister in the future, doing a hundred push-ups with one hand."
Li Ruo's eyes darted around. "Don't you find it strange that I've suddenly become so powerful?"
To everyone's surprise, Li Yi shook his head. "What's so strange about that? My older brother said that my sister was born with superhuman strength. She was able to defeat a big man when she was twelve years old. She was also very good at riding horses and archery. Father taught her personally, but I don't know why she stopped practicing later."
Li Ruo's heart skipped a beat.
No wonder Grandma and Sister-in-law never asked her about her fighting skills.
But why didn't the original owner have this memory?
All that remained were some blurry scenes in her dreams. The person who taught her archery was a general, but strangely, she couldn't see his face clearly.
I was so busy before that I didn't have time to investigate carefully, but now that I've calmed down and thought about it, it does seem a bit strange.
Suddenly, a whistle blew outside. Her heart skipped a beat, and she ran out. The smile on her face vanished the instant she saw who it was.
"It's you?"
Ye Ling'er looked somewhat anxious. "Who else did you think it was? The whistle was given to me by the Third Master. Come out here, I have something to say to you."
The security on the mountain has improved a lot now. Li Ruo casually went out and asked, "What is it?"
"Are you just going to abandon Brother Xiao like this? Aren't you his good friend? You almost became his sibling."
Li Ruo frowned. "Is he in danger?"
But that statement is superfluous; wasn't the danger something we already knew about?
"I want to secretly take some brothers to meet him. Do you want to go?" Ye Ling'er asked.
Li Ruo laughed: "I don't get up early for nothing, what benefits are you going to give me?" Even brothers should keep clear accounts, right?
Ye Ling'er choked for a moment, "Don't worry, I discussed it with Uncle Luo and the Third Master before I came. When the Boss comes back, I'll ask him to give you a share, 20%."
Li Ruo thought for a moment, "I have one more request: you and your men must follow my orders."
Ye Ling'er knew this woman was difficult to deal with, "Fine."
It had to be done, because the brothers from General Mountain all said that they wouldn't go if she led the team, but they would go if Miss Li led the team.
I almost made her die of anger back then.
A bunch of traitors.
Little Li rushed over and said, "Sister Ruo, I'll go with you too."
"Okay, let's go."
Li Ruo, along with Lao Wang, Xiao Yu, and fifty people he had selected, plus the ten brothers he had borrowed from Black Wind Village, totaling sixty people, set off for Qinghua Mountain on a boat with Xiao Li Zi and Ye Ling'er, making a total of three hundred people.
Ye Ling'er was actually quite excited; she could finally go on missions!
Once there's a first time, there will be a second. In the future, she can fight alongside Brother Xiao and become the woman who can stand by his side.
On the way, Li Ruo called Xiao Lizi, Lao Wang, and Xiao Yu into the cabin, took out a barrel of gasoline, drilled holes in bamboo tubes and poured in the gasoline, filling over a hundred of them.
They then had them soak cloth in oil and wrap it around the arrowheads.
The three of them had seen many new things from Li Ruo and didn't find anything strange about it, but this was really too pungent. Little Li asked, "Sis, what is this? It smells so bad."
"You idiot! This is a type of kerosene, even more potent than tung oil. It explodes at the slightest spark. Did you bring a tinderbox?"
"I brought it." Little Li took it out and was about to blow on it.
Li Ruo reacted quickly and almost kicked him off the boat. "You want us all to be wiped out, don't you?"
Little Li: "Aww!"
Li Ruo: "When the time comes, listen to my orders. Smash the bamboo tubes when I tell you to, and light them when I tell you to. This time, we'll burn down the entire camp. Understand?"
Little Li nodded repeatedly.
Qinghua Mountain is about 200 li away from General Mountain, but because there is no road anymore and there is water everywhere, the straight-line distance is greatly shortened, so it can be reached in less than two hours.
According to the book.
The Prince of Jiangning was also at Qinghua Mountain.
But he shouldn't be with the Prince of Runan. The book says that the Prince of Jiangning always wanted to annex the other's resources.
Because Song Zhijing was in Beishan and could bring troops to join his father-in-law at any time, the Prince of Jiangning did not take action against the Prince of Runan.
On the surface, he maintained a friendly relationship with the Prince of Runan, deceiving him for almost a year. During this year, the Prince of Jiangning's power grew significantly.
Up to chapter 190 that Li Ruo had read, he was Xie Xiao's greatest enemy, and later he even captured the Fifth Master. Xie Ying died trying to save the Fifth Master.
Xie Xiao, though ruthless because of Xie Ying's death, only severely injured the Prince of Jiangning, without completely wiping out his forces.
Therefore, readers once suspected that the Prince of Jiangning might be the biggest villain in the book.
But Li Ruo has no idea what happens next in the story.
Her phone was washed away by the flood.
Li Ruo asked everyone to cover their faces with cloths.
We're almost at Qinghua Mountain!
Although Xie Xiao robbed the Prince of Runan's grain this time, he was injured when he was chased by the Prince of Runan on his way out. He encountered the Prince of Jiangning's ship, which was returning from robbing a grain merchant. He was attacked from both sides.
At that moment, a pale bolt of lightning crackled across the inky clouds, creating a bizarre and terrifying scene.
Strong winds rose, and the floodwaters accelerated.
Li Ruo urged everyone to row faster, and soon they indeed saw three boats on the vast water not far from Qinghua Mountain.
The middle boat must belong to Black Wind Village; Li Ruo could see their simple, unadorned clothes through his binoculars.
The next one should be the Prince of Runan, he's right behind!
Originally, the Prince of Runan's ship could not catch up with Xie Xiao's, but unexpectedly, the Prince of Jiangning's ship came head-on.
When the Prince of Jiangning first arrived in Yuzhou, he had a fight with Xie Xiao, which created a grudge between them.
What was worse than Li Ruo had anticipated was that they appeared to have been fighting for quite some time.
The battle on the Black Wind Stronghold's ship was chaotic, with the sounds of swords clashing and shouts of men mixed together.
Xie Xiao was not seen.
All I could see was Sun Ergou, whose face was covered in blood.
Sun Ergou was leading his men in a fierce battle, and the bulging armor on his body suggested he was wearing "soft armor."
A blurry figure stood on the boat of the Prince of Jiangning.
