The moment Shen Huaixu turned around, a hint of fighting spirit flashed in his eyes. It had been a long time since he had stretched his muscles. Unfortunately, there were family members around, so it was difficult to show off his weapons and exchange a few moves.
She dodged sideways the moment the blade was about to strike her, but the man opposite her was still relentless and kept pressing forward.
After several moves of this kind, one side defended without attacking, and the surprise in the visitor's eyes became increasingly obvious. The little girl in front of him was so astonishing in both her reaction speed and agility that sometimes he could only see her afterimage.
He attacked with all his might, but the opponent seemed to be teasing him and provoked him with a frivolous attitude, almost strolling in the garden.
Based on his understanding of Shen Su and his daughter, the person in front of him could not possibly come from a farming family, and it was even more impossible for him to have such good skills at this age.
After realizing this, the anger in his eyes that was provoked by the other party gradually died down, and was replaced by the surprise and pride after discovering the secret.
At this moment, the man did not realize that the group of people he brought had been cleanly and neatly killed by two people who had broken into the battle from nowhere. He did not come to his senses until Shen Huaixu suddenly withdrew from the battle and he was attacked from the front and back.
If Chen Huaixu was just playing a child's game of house, the two newcomers were using ruthless moves, wanting only to take his life.
A sharp cold light shot towards his chest. He dodged it in a panic, but a deep wound that could be seen to the bone was still left on his arm.
In a panic, the man shouted loudly: "She is not Jiang Su's daughter at all, you have been deceived by her!"
Unexpectedly, after these words were spoken, the two women's movements became more and more brutal, until one of them chopped at his shoulder with such force that the man fell to his knees instantly.
Tears started to flow from the corners of his mouth, but he laughed out loud, "Jiang Su has been wise all his life, but he was fooled by a little kid. Ridiculous! Ridiculous——"
The man's pupils suddenly shrank, and all he could see was the sharp sword piercing his chest. He instantly withdrew his smile, "Aren't you afraid that I will kill those beggar grandparents?!"
"stop!"
The moment Chen Huaixu spoke, Shuangjiang's movements abruptly stopped in mid-air.
A hint of doubt flashed in her eyes as she looked at Shen Huaixu.
The next second, she saw the young lady reveal a gentle smile that was very similar to her master's. "I'm so sorry. Before I faced you, I had already sent people to protect them both."
She tilted her head. "My father is much smarter than you. It's rare to find a self-righteous fool like you."
Hearing this, the man's sinister eyes seemed to pierce Shen Huaixu. The next moment, the sword pierced his chest, and his eyes closed unwillingly.
Xiaoman and Shuangjiang retracted their weapons and came to Chen Huaixu, "Miss, we two servants have just checked the surroundings. Except for the two people who were monitoring the grandfather and grandson, everyone he brought is here."
Seeing that the two men were not moved at all by what the man had just said and their expressions were still respectful, Chen Huaixu nodded slightly, walked to the man and checked behind his ear, but did not see any black mark, only that piece of skin looked a little strange.
She reached out and explored, tearing off a layer of flesh-colored membrane, revealing a black mark. Unlike the proud and noble appearance of the crane on the He Ling, this one was a crane spreading its wings, ready to fly. The tattoo was not delicate, but it revealed the owner's ambition.
She looked at the man's face carefully again. At this moment, she could still vaguely see the unwillingness before death on his face. It was indeed not the face she saw at Zhongli Bridge.
"Could there really be a human skin mask?" she muttered curiously. The mall also sold disguise masks, but the material wasn't human skin. It was just that she didn't need them, so she didn't spend her points on them.
"Young lady, are you interested in this?" Xiaoman's ears were sharp, and she heard Shen Huaixu muttering, "Shuangjiang and I can also disguise ourselves, without using human skin."
Chen Huaixu stood up and said, "Show me your skills when you have time. I'll go check on Ying Changming, and you guys clean up this place."
Grain Full and Frost Descent both claim yes.
Seeing Chen Huaixu walking away, the two looked at each other and said nothing more tacitly.
They had doubts about what the man said, but the shock of the master being on the verge of death but being saved by the young lady single-handedly, and the master's body being even better after recovery than at his peak, had made them accustomed to everything they saw.
Besides, Uncle Yan and the master had warned them in turn that they fell into the trap because their brains were rusty.
Shen Huaixu came to Ying Changming's residence and knocked on the door, but there was no meaningful response from inside.
She pushed open the door and walked in. The old man, whom she had met by chance once, looked even thinner than the first time she met him. He was lying on a shabby wooden bed with a sallow face, and seemed somewhat unconscious.
When she saw the old man's appearance, she immediately turned her back to him, took out an antidote from the space, and quickly injected it into the old man's body.
According to Doctor Yue, the old man had been poisoned for six or seven days, with some improvement in the meantime. But after such a long time, it is unknown whether the antidote would leave any sequelae.
She thought of Ying Changming again, and wondered where Ying Changming had gone and whether anyone was watching him.
Thinking of this, Shen Huaixu sat on a simple bench, supporting her little face with one hand. This matter was her own fault for not thinking it through, and she just hoped that the grandfather was not seriously injured.
Xiaoman followed soon after.
"Sister Shuangjiang is cleaning up, so I'll come and accompany the young lady."
The cramped room seemed crowded because of the presence of three people. The master and servant talked in a low voice for a while, and then there was a movement from the bed.
The old man was still weak, but his cloudy eyes were a little clearer.
“You are…”
His speech was a little unclear, perhaps because the symptoms of poisoning had not yet completely improved.
