Liu Jingzhi was imprisoned in a dilapidated house in the village.
He was still wearing pajamas at the moment. After finishing his business with his concubine at night, he was about to go to bed when a group of people broke in and kidnapped him.
The Liu family also had guards at home, but they didn't notice anyone coming in, which made Liu Jingzhi very angry.
Originally, he thought that the bodyguard he hired was tall and mighty, and looked very safe, but now he knows that he is useless.
In front of a master, it's just a decoration.
He originally thought that this group of people kidnapped him and wanted to blackmail him. Some of the gentry in Ruifeng County had encountered such things before. These bandits only cared about money and not their lives. As long as the money was paid, they would be released.
Liu Jingzhi felt that it was because he had been acting in a high-profile manner recently. His daughter helped Pei Yun with business, and he bought shares and received dividends. He also acquired shops in Ruifeng County, which is why he was targeted.
He originally thought that the kidnappers would negotiate with him, such as asking him to write a letter back asking for money.
As a result, they brought him here, dumped him in this dilapidated house, and left him there.
No matter whether he was hungry or thirsty, he didn't ask.
Do you kidnap people like this? You don't consider the hostages' feelings at all. If you want money, just tell me. I can give it to you. Can someone come and negotiate with me?
At this moment, when he smelled the aroma of meat coming from outside, his stomach growled. He hadn't eaten anything for two days and was very hungry.
Why don't you just come in by yourself? There's no need to force me to surrender in this way. I have already surrendered. I didn't say I wouldn't give you money. Can you please give me something to eat?
Listening to the intermittent voices coming from outside, Liu Jingzhi wondered if the kidnappers had forgotten about him and wanted to make some noise, but he was tied to a pillar with a rag stuffed in his mouth, so he couldn't make any sound at all.
He felt a little desperate, not knowing what the kidnappers were trying to do.
At this moment, he suddenly heard someone outside say "it's coming", and then these people seemed to go out, and there was no movement. This made Liu Jingzhi a little panicked. What's coming?
…
When they were still some distance away from the village entrance, Pei Yun dismounted in advance and found a secluded place to hide. He had to take advantage of Leng Qingqiu attracting the attention of the cold-blooded Thirteen Eagles to find out where Liu Jingzhi was tied.
In order to prevent the cold-blooded Thirteen Eagles from being unable to defeat Leng Qingqiu and killing Liu Jingzhi in desperation, Pei Yun wore a hat on his head and a mask on his face so that his face could not be seen clearly.
Leng Qingqiu continued to ride her horse. In addition to the long sword, Pei Yun also specially bought a soft sword online that could be tied around the waist as a belt.
Leng Qingqiu didn't want it at first, but Pei Yun ordered her in a master's tone, so she had to take it.
When I rode to the entrance of the village, I saw the cold-blooded Thirteen Eagles coming out, but only five of them came out, and the other six were nowhere to be seen.
Leng Qingqiu dismounted and said, "I'm here. Where's Liu Jingzhi?"
She used her internal energy to change her voice into a deep voice, which seemed more neutral. Anyway, the cold-blooded Thirteen Eagles had never heard Pei Yun's voice, so there would be no flaws.
"Liu Jingzhi is in the village, you will be able to see him later."
Leng Da opened his mouth and looked at Pei Yun. He obtained Pei Yun's information from Pei Yanshu and sent people to collect and inquire everywhere. He thought he knew Pei Yun relatively well.
The bandit leader became a rebel because of his meritorious service in suppressing the barbarians.
He has a group of bandits under his command, who are brave and good at fighting. They don't know how skilled Pei Yun is, but since he can defeat the barbarians, he must be very strong.
The cold-blooded Thirteen Eagles were also cautious, preparing to guard against Pei Yun leading troops to encircle and suppress them. No matter how powerful the warriors were, they could not be a match for the army.
Even if a first-rate warrior is surrounded by a large army, it would be difficult to escape.
Therefore, only Pei Yun was sent. There were thirteen of them against one man. Even if Pei Yun had good martial arts skills, he would not be their opponent. However, he was not sure if there was anyone ambushing outside, so he asked six people to go out and investigate.
Soon the six people came back and shook their heads, indicating that there was no ambush outside.
Leng Da was relieved then. He signaled with his eyes, and Leng Shisan ran over to pick up Liu Jingzhi and put the sword across his neck.
"Pei Yun, throw the sword over here, or I will kill him."
Liu Jingzhi was slightly stunned when he saw 'Pei Yun'. He originally thought that the kidnapping was for money, but now he realized that he was just a bait and the other party wanted Pei Yun.
Leng Qingqiu frowned slightly and stood there without moving.
Seeing this, Leng Shisan cut a cut on Liu Jingzhi's neck with his sword, causing Liu Jingzhi to shiver in pain.
"Do as I say, or I'll kill him."
Although they felt that the opponent was no match for them with thirteen of them against one, it would be much easier to deal with him if they could make him drop his weapon.
Being a killer means walking on thin ice, and they are not as wealthy as Yanyu Tower with so many killers. They only have thirteen people, and the death of one is a loss.
Therefore, with hostages, they had to minimize the threat posed by Pei Yun to them.
If they knew that Pei Yun was just a mediocre warrior, they probably wouldn't be so cautious and would rush forward in droves.
Liu Jingzhi did not speak, but looked at Pei Yun with pleading eyes.
At this critical moment of life and death, if Pei Yun lost his sword, his strength would definitely be greatly reduced. Liu Jingzhi was not sure whether Pei Yun would put himself in danger in order to save him.
Leng Qingqiu looked at the cold-blooded Thirteen Eagles, then at the pitiful Liu Jingzhi, and threw the sword over, thinking in his heart that his master's preparations were not in vain.
She originally wanted to rush over and kill these thirteen people, but the other party had Liu Jingzhi in his hand, so she couldn't act any further.
Let's see what these people want to do first. If they really threaten his life, Leng Qingqiu will not care whether Liu Jingzhi is safe or not.
