The next morning, Jiang Yue and his friend went downstairs to feed the mule.
The carriage in the backyard was gone.
She took out a bag of beans and touched the mule's head, "Eat it. It's better to eat breakfast after you are full."
Jiang Nian looked at the mule's wound and changed the medicine. "It's enough to rest for one more day. You can leave tomorrow morning."
The waiter came over yawning and asked with a smile, "How much is your room rate for today?"
Jiang Nian threw the beans left by the mule to him.
The man's face darkened even more, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Isn't this inappropriate?"
Jiang Yue raised an eyebrow, "Why is it inappropriate? You don't eat beans?"
"Yesterday, the guests fed the mules with steamed buns and biscuits, which shows that there is still plenty of dry food. But using beans to pay for the room is too much, isn't it?"
"This is all we have, take it or leave it." Jiang Yue acted like a rogue.
The guy has lost all his patience. He had been holding back his anger for a whole day yesterday, and now he has already sent the people who are urgently needed by the higher-ups. It doesn’t matter if these two people live!
He threw the bag to the ground, scattering the beans, and shouted into the house, "Old Black, come out!"
The big black man rushed out holding Guan Gong's sword and slashed at Jiang Nian head-on.
Jiang Nian moved quickly and dodged to the right.
"Pang——" With a loud noise, a crack appeared on the ground caused by the big knife.
This big black guy is very strong. I wonder if he can really lift a thousand pounds.
Jiang Nian took out a saber from behind him. Since the opponent was strong, he would compete in speed.
The big black man swung his sword with great force, but was slow to retract it. Jiang Nian dodged left and right, avoiding his attack.
After several rounds, Jiang Nian didn't show any signs of exhaustion, but the opponent had many more wounds on his body.
Jiang Yue moved the mule to the side to avoid the battlefield.
But the guy took a fancy to her since she was alone and tried to grab her hands.
Jiang Yue took out another saber and slashed his arm with it. The wound was so deep that the bone was visible and the blood kept flowing.
"ah--"
The guy was shocked. This woman could actually use a knife.
Now he realized that he had underestimated his enemy. He covered his injured right hand, turned around and ran into the house.
How could Jiang Yue give him this opportunity? With a flick of her wrist, the knife flew out and pierced his thigh, causing him to fall to the ground instantly.
He gritted his teeth, sweating profusely, and crawled into the house on his own two hands.
Jiang Yue walked forward, eyes icy, pulled out the knife, and severed the tendons in his hands and feet. Then, she watched him wriggle and wail on the ground like an ugly insect.
She looked towards Jiang Nian and the battle situation became clear.
Heida was exhausted and his movements became slower.
Jiang Nian found the right moment, kicked him in the chest, and then cut his tendons.
With a "clang", the big knife fell to the ground.
He wanted to run, but Jiang Yue came towards him and stabbed the knife into his thigh, but deliberately avoided the aorta.
"Ah——" He screamed and collapsed to the ground.
They found a rope in the backyard, tied the two men up, and left them in the yard to bask in the sun.
Then Jiang Yue slowly began to search for things in front of them.
"Where did you put the food you looted? Let me look for it—" Jiang Yue looked at the man's wandering eyes and chuckled, "Oh, I found it by accident."
Jiang Yue found a dozen or so cakes, a few buckets of beans, and dark flour in the kitchen cabinet. Although this amount of food was nothing in their eyes, it was enough for the refugees to survive for three months.
Tsk tsk, Jiang Yue didn't know if there was blood on it. She looked at the mule's injured leg and handed it over, "Fix it."
The mule breathed a sigh of joy, rolled his tongue, and put the cake into his mouth to chew.
The crisp sound hit the heart of the guy and the big black guy.
The two men's eyes were red and their teeth were gnashing. It was unknown whether it was because of the severe pain in their wounds, or because they were angry that the food they had worked so hard to rob was eaten by the mule, or because they felt ashamed because they were thieves but their family's wealth was emptied.
Jiang Nian dug out dozens of taels of gold and hundreds of taels of silver from the cellar.
It was convenient for those who fled to take away gold and silver. It was unknown how many deals they had made with so much money.
He picked up the big black man's sword and swung it twice, but it was too heavy and awkward to use, not as good as his own saber.
The well in the yard was locked. He didn't even ask for the key. He held the big knife in both hands and chopped it again and again.
The lock was not cut off until the blade of the sword was bent.
He tossed the lock and plank aside and peered inside. The well was quite deep. The people behind it must have been quite capable, and had hired skilled craftsmen to find a source of water at this time.
The guy and the big black guy started begging for mercy. Jiang Yue took two rags, blocked their mouths, and then threw them into the cellar.
She lowered her eyes, as if issuing a final verdict, "You too will have a taste of what it's like to be on the verge of starvation and thirst."
Jiang Yue and his companion rested in the inn for another day. Late the next night, they set out again, guided by the moonlight.
Because the mule's injury had not yet healed completely, Jiang Yue refused to sit on it.
Jiang Nian carried her on his back and led the mule.
At this moment, Jiang Yue seemed to have returned to the days in Jiangshan Village.
"Baby, you're so nice."
Jiang Nian smiled and wanted to rub her face, but she blocked him.
Jiang Yue supported his shoulders with both hands and hid far away, "You stink!"
Jiang Nian paused, then weighed her down. Jiang Yue subconsciously lay down and hugged him tightly.
"Well, I stink too. We both smell the same now!"
In the heat of summer, if you sweat and don't shower for two or three days, you'll stink. Jiang Yue's bottom line is that she can't have lice on her head.
