Chapter 223: Heartbeat Feed the Dog
Zhou Huaining was about to slip away when suddenly something came towards his face with a sound of breaking through the air.
Fortunately, Zhou Huaining had some martial arts skills and he immediately dodged to the side, and the thing flew out past his cheek.
There was a loud sound of water splashing in the room. It must be that the person inside was getting up from the bathtub. Perhaps in a panic, he tripped over the stool in the room and let out a low cry.
Zhou Huaining turned his back to the window and whispered to the inside: "Girl, take your time, don't panic, I didn't see anything!"
The people inside seemed to get even angrier when they heard him say that. "You filthy scoundrel, I'm going to dig out your eyes and feed them to the dogs today!"
"Girl, you misunderstood. I'm a good person. You must have been kidnapped here by bandits, right? I can rescue you!"
The woman inside was stunned. "You said you would save me? Who are you? Aren't you from the Black Eagle Village?"
Zhou Huaining said righteously, "How could a righteous man like me be from the Black Eagle Village? I'm here to suppress the bandits. Girl, your hard times are about to end. Tonight, I can take you out of the Black Eagle Village!"
Zhou Huaining was very excited as he spoke. A plot like a hero saving a beauty was exactly what he wanted.
The person inside was silent for a moment, and when he spoke again, his tone was sad, "Don't lie to me, you must have been sent by Hawkeye to test me, right?"
Zhou Huaining was anxious. "I am a genuine good man. I am the magistrate of Xianchuan County. I came here tonight to suppress the bandits!"
"County Magistrate?" The woman's voice was filled with sadness. "You are so shameless. I won't believe what you stinking men say. You must be plotting something, trying to trick me into selling me off somewhere."
Zhou Huaining felt a surge of pity in his heart. This girl must have had a very miserable life experience.
"Girl, you will know whether I lied to you or not, whether what I said is true or not, later."
The woman was skeptical and asked, "Are you really a good person? But the Black Eagle Village is in a dangerous position. How did you get in?"
Zhou Huaining said, "As the saying goes, the devil is one foot high, the Tao is ten feet high. It's just a natural chasm. It can't stop me!"
"But you're too bold," the woman said worriedly. "There are over a thousand bandits in Black Eagle Village, and they're all ruthless. How many of you have brought? I'm worried you're no match for them, and my excitement will be in vain."
"Don't worry. Although we don't have many people, we are all experts from the capital. Each of them is worth ten. It's no problem to deal with this mob."
"So, there are only a few hundred of you?"
"Yes, the number of people is not important, the surprise attack in the middle of the night is important."
The woman snorted, "You underestimate the Black Eagle Village. I won't go with you."
"Why?"
"Because you will definitely fail," the woman said slowly. "The reason I'm still alive is because I've shown my unwavering loyalty to the village chief, and I've made him very happy. If the village chief finds out I'm trying to escape, he'll definitely kill me."
Zhou Huaining was a little unhappy when he saw the woman repeatedly disbelieve him. "That's because you don't know me and my methods! When I catch all the bandits in one fell swoop, you will know my strength."
The woman whispered, "Sir, please don't be angry. It's not that I don't believe in your ability, but I'm like a frightened bird right now. One wrong step and I could be shattered to pieces."
Zhou Huaining nodded. "I understand your difficult situation. How about this? Find a secluded place to hide, and don't let the bandits use you as a hostage to threaten us. Wait until we have a complete victory, then come out."
"Thank you, sir. I just want to ask for your advice on where I should hide."
The door creaked open and a beautiful woman stood in front of it.
Zhou Huaining was dazed for a moment.
I have never seen such an androgynous appearance.
The woman looked to be in her twenties, with long, wet hair draped over her shoulders.
Just looking at the upper half of the face, the two thick and long eyebrows slant into the temples, giving off an innate heroic spirit.
A pair of fox eyes with distinct black and white, pointed at the beginning and upturned at the end, revealing an indifference that keeps people at a distance.
The lower half of the face has a delicate nose, bright red lips, a pointed chin, and a slender neck.
The whole person is like a mixture of contradictions.
The woman looked around warily, "Sir, please come in quickly, or we won't be discovered."
Zhou Huaining raised his leg and walked in without thinking.
As soon as I walked in, I felt a sharp pain in the back of my head.
Zhou Huaining covered his head and turned back, "You...you..."
After saying that, he fell to the ground.
"Me, what about me?" The woman said with disdain, "How dare such a fool come to Black Eagle Village!"
The woman picked up a rope and tied Zhou Huaining up.
Then he walked into the inner room, and not long after, a man with a full beard and a scary scar on his face came out.
At this time, the sound of fighting was heard outside. Hawkeye looked out the window and saw two groups of people fighting in a mess.
Those guys were indeed skilled in martial arts. Fortunately, the Black Eagle Village had more people, so the outcome was still unclear.
Hawkeye sneered, picked up the tea on the table and splashed it on Zhou Huaining's face.
"It's so cold! I'm freezing to death!"
Zhou Huaining opened his eyes and met Hawkeye's cold eyes.
"Who are you? Where did that woman go?" Zhou Huaining was furious. "Tell her to come over. I have something to ask her!"
My heart was moved. I saved her out of kindness, but she actually used dirty tricks on me?
"How dare you covet my woman?" Hawkeye sneered, "You're still thinking of being a hero and saving the beauty? With you? She wouldn't look down on a gigolo like you."
Zhou Huaining was about to explode with rage, "Who are you calling a gigolo? Do you dare to untie me? Let's have a fight!"
Hawkeye kicked him, "Now is not the time to play with you, get up!"
Zhou Huaining was a man who would not suffer a loss in front of him. He stood up reluctantly and said, "I'm telling you, I'm a delicate and precious young master. Don't touch me!"
Hawkeye ignored him and put the dagger to his neck.
Outside the door, the guards and the bandits were fighting fiercely. Suddenly, a voice came, "Stop! If anyone moves again, I will cut his neck."
The people fighting turned around and saw a sharp dagger stuck to Zhou Huaining's neck.
"Young Master!" The guards were shocked.
Hawkeye was not as tall as Zhou Huaining, so he hid behind him. He exerted a little force on the dagger in his hand and said, "Tell your men to get out of the Black Eagle Village immediately!"
Zhou Huaining hissed in pain, "Listen to him, everyone, evacuate Black Eagle Village!"
The guard hesitated.
They have withdrawn, what should I do, sir?
Hawkeye grinned and said, "I mean what I say. You all retreat, and I will return this pretty boy to you unharmed! But if you try to play any tricks, I will not hesitate to cut his throat!"
