Chapter 30: So Hidden



"Hahahaha, big brother, such a beautiful young lady is the third wife. The first and second wives will be jealous." The second in command joked.

"That's right, hahahaha..."

Dozens of people were talking at once, saying obscene words that were unbearable to the ears.

Su Li had a blank expression on his face, thinking in his mind how to subdue the boss.

"Madam Su, please get in the car quickly. Leave this to us," Qin Yi approached and whispered, "We brothers will fight them in a while. You find a chance to escape."

Su Li secretly praised that the Qin Dao brothers were still quite professional at the critical moment of life and death.

Then he whispered, "Be patient, watch me..."

There were too many people on the other side, so it was not advisable to confront them head-on. She had to outsmart them...

Then he looked at the burly man and asked with a faint smile, "Are you the boss?"

"That's right, sir. My name is Zhao Wu!"

"Well, young lady, have you thought it over? Do you want to follow me up the mountain and become my wife?"

"If you agree, I'll surrender those two women when I get back and let you be the first lady, how about that?"

Of course, if he took a fancy to her, he would kidnap her regardless of whether she agreed or not. By then, her treatment would not be as comfortable as if she had voluntarily come to the mountain.

As for the others, he certainly wouldn't let them go.

Su Li showed a slightly happy smile: "Does the boss keep his word?"

"certainly!"

She made up a story, "To be honest, Boss, I have always admired men with martial arts skills like you since I was a child. Unfortunately, my father betrothed me to a weak scholar who couldn't even lift a chicken. Boss, you don't know that my husband couldn't even hold me. Alas!"

A weak scholar who can't even tie a chicken?

Pei Ji in the car raised his eyebrows slightly, and looked at his immobile right foot... It seemed...

Zhao Wu was instantly pleased by her words: "Hahahaha! That's easy, just let me hold you, I'll carry you up the mountain, hahahaha..."

As he said that, he was about to come over and hug her.

"Brother, be careful, there might be a trap!" Wang Ping, the second in command beside Zhao Wu, reminded him.

"Hey, but what tricks can a weak little girl play? Wang Ping, you are still too cautious... Beauty, I am coming!"

Faced with the praise of such a beauty, Zhao Wu's vanity was overflowing. At this time, he had already forgotten the east, west, south and north, and did not take the words of the second in command seriously at all. Of course, the biggest reason was that he did not take Su Li, a woman, seriously at all.

Su Li looked shy, and when Zhao Wu reached out to hug her, her eyes suddenly became sharp, and she quickly raised her hands and quickly removed his arms.

"Ah!" Zhao Wu screamed in pain, his face full of shock, "You! You..."

This woman! This woman actually knows martial arts!

Su Li didn't hesitate. With one hand, she grabbed the back of his neck and with the other, she took out a dagger from her body and put it on his neck. She quickly retreated back to the front of the carriage and said, "Don't move, or I will kill him!"

To catch a thief, one must first catch the leader. As long as they take Zhao Wu hostage, they can reduce casualties and leave safely.

Qin Dao and Qin Yi were stunned for a moment, then reacted quickly and stepped forward to block Su Li behind them.

"Let my boss go!" Shouzhugan shouted.

Dozens of bandits approached with long knives.

"Puff!" Su Li stabbed Zhao Wu's shoulder without hesitation: "Boss, it seems that your men don't care about your life or death at all..."

Zhao Wu grimaced in pain and cursed loudly, "Everyone, get out of here! If anyone dares to come forward again, I'll kill him!"

"Don't hurt my boss! Retreat! Everyone, retreat!" Zhao Wu's confidant shouted, "Didn't you hear what the boss said? Everyone, retreat! Don't act rashly!"

“Get in the car!”

Just as Su Li grabbed Zhao Wu's collar and was about to get him into the carriage, someone in the crowd suddenly shouted, "Don't be fooled by that woman! She won't let the boss go. She'll kill him! Let's go together! Kill them and rescue the boss!"

When the bandits heard this, they raised their knives and rushed forward.

"Everyone, get back off! Wang Ping! How dare you!" Zhao Wu widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief.

That voice, that voice was made by Wang Ping, whom he regarded as his own brother. How could he not recognize it!

His good brother wanted him dead! He actually betrayed him!

With the support of several close associates, Wang Ping was still puzzled: "Brother, I'm doing this for your own good. This woman is so cruel and ruthless. If she takes you away, she will definitely not let you go. I just want to save you..."

"You're talking nonsense! Wang Ping, I've always treated you like a brother, yet you treat me like this!"

Oh no! Looks like this second in command wants to take the top spot.

Su Li laughed and said, "Boss, you still can't see it. Being the boss's brother is not as happy as being the boss yourself. Your brother is hoping that you will die soon so that he can take over..."

The bandits looked at each other in confusion, not knowing why the leader and the second in command started arguing.

Zhao Wu's confidant pointed at Wang Ping and cursed, "Wang Ping, you ungrateful bastard! Have you forgotten who rescued you and brought you back to the village? Without the boss, you would have died countless times!"

"Puchi!" The long knife pierced into his abdomen. Zhao Wu's confidant's eyes widened and he slowly turned around: "You..." The man behind him pulled out the bloody long knife without hesitation.

Zhao Wu's confidant fell to the ground with a loud bang, and died with his eyes open.

Wang Ping said with an innocent look, "How dare you alienate me from my brother? Damn it!" Then he suddenly revealed a strange and sinister smile, "Brother, I'll save you..."

As he said this, he took out a small bow and arrow, aimed at Zhao Wu, and shot without saying a word.

Su Li was shocked and immediately hid herself behind Zhao Wu.

"call out!"

At the same time, the sound of an arrow being shot was heard from behind.

"bite!"

With a metallic collision, the arrow was knocked down.

Then there was another "whoosh" sound, and Wang Ping's hand was shot through, and the bow and arrow in his hand fell to the ground.

Su Li turned around suddenly and saw the carriage door behind him was wide open. Pei Ji, dressed in a green shirt, had a cold look in his eyes and raised his right hand.

"call out!"

A sharp arrow shot out from his sleeve.

Before anyone could react, the bowstrings on the ground were shot off.

Sleeve Arrow!

Su Li suddenly realized.

How could she forget!

In the original novel, Pei Ji is proficient in the manufacture and use of various hidden weapons, and the sleeve arrows he carries with him never miss their targets.

Although he was not good at martial arts, he was proficient in archery. Relying on these hidden weapons, he avoided many assassination attempts in the later period of his reign and even killed the assassins.

The original owner had no memory of these things, so she didn't think of it for a while.

How could Pei Ji, who always thinks ten steps ahead, not be prepared when heading to Qiongzhou, a place with high mountains and long roads?

Everyone was shocked when they saw the broken string. Such terrifyingly accurate archery was actually shot by the young man in the carriage. Who was he?

The Qin Dao brothers were even more shocked. All along the way, they had no idea that their employer was so secretive?
