Chapter 338: The Humble Mute Maid (6)
The family affairs of the Yuan family have recently become a laughing stock in Hangzhou.
Everyone knows that the young master of the Yuan family fell in love with a mute maid and vowed to marry her. As a result, due to the obstruction and deception of his family, the mute maid was burned alive on his wedding day. The day after the maid died, the young master of the Yuan family took the initiative to break off relations and left home to travel around. Since then, no one knows his whereabouts. Because of this incident, the master and mistress of the Yuan family have successively collapsed.
At the same time, Yan Que took Wei Shiyi to Zhuzhou. Chen Sheng also went with them.
Chen Sheng was observing how Wei Yanque and the mute girl got along with each other along the way. The more he observed, the more frightened he became. He made up his mind not to make the mute girl unhappy in the future.
Wei Yanque was the most respected uncle of the current emperor. Naturally, he would not break his promise to him. During his free time on the road, he had already imagined that he would receive the imperial edict as soon as he arrived in Zhuzhou. However, before they even got started, they encountered an ambush.
"Brothers on the road, we are all after money. I have a lot of silver here, which can provide brothers with a good life for a while." Chen Sheng took the initiative to "contribute" his money.
However, the group of people were unmoved, but began to confirm the identities of the three of them.
"Are you from Hangzhou?"
Wei Yanque looked at the group of people vigilantly, and at the same time blocked Wei Shiyi inconspicuously, and whispered to Chen Sheng: "Those who come are not good, and those who are good will not come."
The people who came were all dressed like a group of bandits, but they were neither seeking money nor robbing, so they had only one purpose, to kill people.
Chen Sheng looked at him and took the lead in launching an attack. The group of people who came were well prepared, and they fought hard for a while.
"Kill the woman first." The leading man noticed that Wei Yanque was protecting her at a glance, and took the lead in stabbing her. A group of his men heard his order and attacked her one after another.
The group immediately surrounded her. But he couldn't get away, and couldn't get close at all. Wei Yanque was so anxious that his eyes turned red.
"Take care of yourself. I'll go help." Chen Sheng killed the people around him with a knife and flew towards her. Just as he was about to get close to the crowd, the people surrounding her suddenly fell down.
In the bright sunlight, the group of people who fell down had three silver needles shining with golden light pierced between their eyebrows.
Wei Yanque breathed heavily when he saw that she was out of danger, and his eyes were full of admiration when he looked at her.
The best trappers are always the best. No matter what time, they are the best.
"It's good that you're okay." Chen Sheng glanced at her silently and suddenly realized: not only could he not make her unhappy, he couldn't offend her, and he couldn't die without knowing how he died.
The next solution was very simple and rough.
Chen Sheng only watched the woman who couldn't speak throw out a handful of silver needles, and the people who were originally holding knives and rushing towards them fell to the ground one after another.
If he hadn't stayed by her side all the time, he might have suspected that he would fall down with those people.
The people who were looking for trouble were wiped out. They continued on their way.
He used to be a coachman outside, but this time he sat in the carriage obediently. He felt frightened.
They arrived at a deserted village at night. They found a cleaner house and stayed there.
The three people who were tired all day decided to rest here for a night and set off again tomorrow. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, another group of killers came directly to them.
This was really intolerable. Chen Sheng was completely furious. He imagined this group of people as rotten melons in the fields, and picked up a knife to chop at them. His desperate strength was appreciated by Wei Yanque.
While Chen Sheng was chopping and killing the enemy, he was waiting for her to use her big move, but he didn't see her make any moves even though he was covered in wounds. He panicked and shouted to her: "Mute girl, release the silver needle quickly and kill them."
Wei Yanque looked back and exchanged a glance with her, and found her bitter smile. He thought she could not continue to use the previous silver needle, so he protected her while thinking about retreating.
Chen Sheng secretly groaned. If he had known that she couldn't continue to use her big move, he would not have stepped forward. He was the only son in their family, and the whole family still hoped that he would revitalize the family and drive its development.
"No, I can't die." He was exhausted and raised his knife again to slash at the group of enemies. But this group of people came prepared, and they were fighting in a round-robin battle. One group of people were injured and retreated, and another group rushed up, one after another.
The temple was surrounded by killers. They were numerous and prepared, and there were only three people on his side who couldn't rush out at all. Wei Yanque was a little anxious.
He didn't expect that the person behind him was so anxious, and sent people to stop him from going back again and again. He lowered his eyes and held the long sword in his hand tighter. He must go back to Zhuzhou. Otherwise, the people behind this group of people will succeed.
He was originally full of anger, but when she pulled the corner of his clothes, he looked back at her with tenderness in his eyes.
"Don't be afraid. We will be safe." At this critical moment, he was still comforting her.
She looked at him and nodded, narrowing her eyes and smiling.
He recognized her lip shape.
"I believe you."
"We will be safe." He was filled with huge energy and rushed forward again.
He swore that as long as Wei Yanque was not dead today, he would find the mastermind behind it. It was not enough to execute him by slow slicing, he would also whip his corpse after he died.
When Chen Sheng looked back at Wei Yanque, he met the eyes of the mute girl. She looked at him solemnly and said to him, "Get out, get out quickly." After he recognized her lip shape, he basically did not hesitate and fought his way out of a bloody path with all his strength.
"Get out." She pushed him away with all her strength. There was a broken door next to him, and he fell to the flat ground outside.
She suddenly looked back at him, and her smile was so innocent that it reminded him of the first time they met under the overpass.
The other killers who had not had time to react were instantly swallowed up by the sinking ground. The killers who had time to react were pulled down by this huge force.
Chen Sheng desperately held onto Wei Yanque and watched the mute girl and the deserted temple fall into the ground together.
Wei Yanque opened his mouth but didn't make a sound. He suddenly understood why she didn't use the silver needle. It wasn't because she couldn't, but because she didn't have time. As the best assassin, she had already found the most convenient and quickest way to kill.
The other assassins who came to their senses continued to rush towards them. He swung his sword like an angry god of war.
"Stay alive." This was her last words to him.
