Chapter 310 Big Move
[No, it won’t happen.]
[Based on the current temperature and humidity, the host's body will definitely not be completely cool within two hours.]
Hey, is this the time to talk about this?
You have to find a way to help me get out of this...
Before Zhuang Qingning could finish her words to Xiaowu, a sharp arrow whizzed towards her. She hurriedly dodged, but Jiang Yu also swung a knife at her, so Zhuang Qingning had to raise her whip to block it.
Then the sharp arrow grazed Zhuang Qingning's mouth and blood immediately oozed out.
Zhuang Qingning was slightly startled. Jiang Yu on the opposite side stabbed her with a knife again. She raised her whip to block it, but she felt a pain at the base of her thumb and could no longer hold the whip in her hand.
The whip immediately fell to the ground.
Zhuang Qingning leaned against the carriage and breathed heavily.
"You just thought you were so powerful, but you are just a show-off. I gave you a way out before but you refused. Now don't blame me for being rude!"
Jiang Yu was quite resentful towards Zhuang Qingning because he had just been suppressed by her and had no power to fight back. He snorted coldly, raised the knife in his hand and chopped at Zhuang Qingning fiercely.
I'm afraid it's really over now.
Zhuang Qingning closed his eyes.
[Host, don't be discouraged. The system still has a final trick that will definitely guarantee the host's safety! ]
It’s already this time...
Unless you have the ability to teleport with the host, you will be unable to escape.
Could it be that I was still expecting someone to come and save me after shouting my throat out? Come on, it would be a miracle if there were any talented people in this wilderness...
A clanging sound suddenly rang out.
Zhuang Qingning opened his eyes and saw Jiang Yu, whose face was full of disbelief, the half-broken knife in his hand, and the other half of the broken knife that flew to the side and stabbed into the ground.
"You silly girl, you still have this trick!" Jiang Yu came to his senses and waved to Liu Er who was standing beside him.
Liu Er let go, and a sharp sword flew towards Zhuang Qingning again.
She was about to dodge, but suddenly she felt a dark shadow beside her, and someone reached out to embrace her, and she fell into the dark shadow's arms.
Then, he felt his body lighten, as if someone had carried him directly into the air. When he came to his senses, he was already three meters away from Jiang Yu, and was blocked by someone behind him.
From her angle of vision, she couldn't see the other person's face clearly, but she could tell that he was a tall man wearing a moon-white gown, and he was standing very straight.
Judging from the actions he took to escape her just now, this person seemed to be very skilled. More importantly, this person should have come to save her.
Could this be the ultimate move that Xiao Wu mentioned? Zhuang Qingning pursed his lips.
But who is this person...
Before she could think too much, she felt a numbness at the place where the arrow had just scratched her forehead, and then her consciousness gradually became a little fuzzy.
The arrows are poisonous...
Zhuang Qingning realized this and tried to open his mouth, but no sound came out. He just tried his best to reach out and grab the other person's sleeve, but then fell down weakly.
Chu Jinnian's face darkened when he noticed the movement of the person behind him. He reached out and quickly picked up Zhuang Qingning who was about to fall to the ground. He then grabbed her wrist and checked her pulse.
Fortunately, it was not poisoning, but just drugging. It was just a sleep and it was not a big deal.
Chu Jinnian felt a little relieved and gently placed Zhuang Qingning's head on his shoulder. He protected her with one hand and drew a long sword from his waist with the other hand.
When he looked at Jiang Yu, his brows slightly frowned, "If I remember correctly, you are a wanted criminal of the court and a centurion who was once famous in the army, Jiang Yu."
"You guessed wrong. I am Jiang Yu." Jiang Yu snorted coldly, "Since you call yourself this official, you are a member of the imperial court?"
"Brother, listen to me. This damn court has never been a good place for people. You are working hard for them now, but you will get nothing in return. Honor or money are all in the hands of those flatterers."
"The people at the top are all evil-minded. Even the dog emperor is a blind man with open eyes. He can't see what's going on below. He is just used to listening to nice words."
"Listen to my advice, turn back early and do what you should do. Don't always be so impulsive, or you will end up hurting yourself..."
"Is this what you call the right thing to do?" Chu Jinnian's tone was cold and even a little angry. "Trafficking in people is against the will of heaven?"
Jiang Yu saw that his persuasion was useless and he was even scolded, so he became furious.
His originally honest face was now distorted by anger. "How can a rich kid like you know the plight of people like us who crawled out of the pile of dead bodies?"
"We fought our way back from the battlefield. How much blood was shed, how many people died, how many people died on the battlefield and their families couldn't survive, the elderly were left alone, the wives and children were left unattended, and some sold their own daughters to others as concubines because they couldn't make ends meet. Why is this happening?"
"It's because those evil-hearted people took bribes and perverted the law, swallowing up the relief money of those people, causing them to lose their lives and not even getting the money they deserve!"
"We went to reprimand those wicked people, but they were still accused of gathering a crowd to cause trouble. If we said a few more words, they would say that we were acting recklessly because of our military achievements and ignoring the laws of the court. They would beat us up and throw us out, leaving us to fend for ourselves."
"The imperial court is so black-hearted and indifferent, why should we be fair and law-abiding and be the good citizens who are bullied?"
"You guys, relying on your clan ties and the emperor's grace, were born with a silver spoon in your mouth. You have everything from the moment you are born. You have luxurious clothes and delicious food all day long. You have no idea of the situation of people like us!"
"I really don't know how you live."
Chu Jinnian raised his eyelids, "But I know that every wrong has its perpetrator, every debt has its creditor. Since you feel that the court owes you a debt, you could have killed that corrupt official and caused trouble for the court as revenge. But you chose not to cause trouble for the right people, but to engage in human trafficking, causing the common people to lose their homes and lives. What's the reason?"
"How is your behavior different from that of the corrupt officials you hated before, who ignored the lives and families of others? Do you know that the innocent girls you abducted are also relatives of those soldiers who died on the battlefield?"
"What you did is nothing more than you have resentment in your heart, but you dare not provoke someone you cannot afford to provoke, so you take your anger out on others and vent it everywhere. However, you insist on calling it righteousness, which is really ridiculous."
The last layer of fig leaf was torn off, and those things that had never been exposed before were so nakedly cut open and exposed in the sun for people to watch and discuss.
