Seeing Guangping standing there motionless, Xiao Xian's face became even colder.
"Is what I say now just wind in my ears?"
"no!"
"Then give it to them."
Xiao Xian could see that although the other party looked ferocious, he was not a disorganized group of loose sand.
They are organized and disciplined, and are not ordinary bandits at all.
Thinking of Qu Li's three cousins who were obsessed with their sister, he actually had some vague ideas in his mind.
These people were most likely sent by Qu Li’s three cousins.
She must have known how badly he treated Qu Li in the past, and wanted to teach him a lesson on his way back to Dagan.
Thinking back on everything that happened between him and Qu Li, he felt that he really deserved a beating.
Guangping and others had no choice but to hand over all the valuables they had on them.
Those people were quite satisfied, but most of them were still confused.
How could the famous King Chen be so cowardly?
"And your horses!" said the leading strong man in an angry voice.
Guangping shouted angrily: "I can't give you the horse!"
These horses are their companions. If they are given to these people, they will definitely be sold or slaughtered, which they cannot tolerate!
Especially Xiao Xian’s mount, which is like a friend.
"Are you sure you won't give it to me?" The burly man raised his eyebrows and spoke in a cold voice.
"Yes, it's impossible to give it to him!" Guangping said without hesitation, and at the same time gave a wink to several secret guards. Everyone held the swords at their waists tacitly.
As long as Xiao Xian gives the order, they will definitely do whatever it takes.
The atmosphere was tense and war was imminent.
Xiao Xian touched his mount and looked at the strong man: "This horse has been with me to many places. It is a rare and good horse. I hope you can treat it well."
Everyone was surprised again.
The prince must have lost his mind.
They absolutely couldn't bear to see him like this.
Guangping drew out his sword and swung it at the person closest to him. The rest of the secret guards also attacked.
"Stop it!" Xiao Xian shouted sternly.
"Your Highness?" Everyone looked at Xiao Xian, who had a determined expression.
"You're smart!" The leading strong man personally took the reins from Xiao Xian's hand, "I'm also a horse lover. A good horse that can run a thousand miles is very hard to come by. I won't sell this horse for a mere silver."
Xiao Xian still looked calm, not seeming surprised at all.
This group of people "robbed" Xiao Xian and others of all their silver, valuables, and horses, and then left at lightning speed.
When the people who went to find water and hunt game came back, they were all shocked.
Their wise and powerful King Chen was defeated without a fight, and everyone's horses and other valuables were handed over to a group of bandits?!
Shock, speechlessness...all kinds of emotions were swirling in everyone's eyes.
They didn't dare to blame Xiao Xian and could only look at Guangping.
Guangping also looked helpless: "Don't look at me, I'm not the prince! This is the prince's decision."
Everyone was angry but dared not say anything. They could only process the game and set off for the north.
This group of bandits drove the herd of horses, passed the message to Changsun Wu, and then galloped directly towards Dagan.
…
Qu Li and Feng Yi were already halfway down. The fog was so thick that visibility was extremely poor.
"Li'er, go back the way you came."
"We agreed to go down together, I can't leave you alone!"
"Then let's hold hands." Feng Yi extended his hand.
Qu Li held his hand without hesitation, and the two of them slowly slid down.
The climbing rope was not long enough before, so Qu Li tried several materials in the past two days to lengthen the rope.
The mist at the bottom of the cliff became thicker and thicker, and Qu Li and Feng Yi slid down slower and slower.
The sudden change happened overnight.
Qu Li's climbing rope suddenly broke from the joint, and she fell rapidly.
Feng Yi held her hand tightly and tried to take her back the way she came.
On the top of the cliff, the three brothers Changsun Chi's faces all changed when they discovered that Qu Li's climbing rope was broken.
"Cousin!"
"Feng Yi's rope is not broken, so he should be fine." Chang Sun Wu tried hard to stay calm.
Chang Sun Chi used his internal energy and shouted loudly.
Feng Yi responded: "We are fine, Li'er did not fall."
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but they were still worried.
"Li'er, come back now, it's too dangerous!"
"Cousin, I'm fine! Don't worry." Qu Li responded.
They were almost at the bottom of the cliff. If they returned the same way, they would probably object next time.
Feng Yi looked at her deeply.
The moment the climbing rope broke just now, his heart almost stopped beating when he saw her almost falling.
Fortunately, Qu Li is fine!
Noticing his gaze, Qu Li curled her lower lip at him, "We don't know how dangerous it will be down there. Are you really determined to go down with me?"
"My third cousin came to talk to me a few days ago."
Qu Li frowned. How come she didn't know about this?
"I promised him that no matter what happens, I will protect you!"
"I heard the sound of water below, and I had a hunch that my father might not be dead!"
Even though the cliff bottom was thick with fog and he couldn't see the expression on her face, he could see that her eyes were unusually bright.
His thin lips slowly lifted up, "Li'er is the reincarnation of a fairy. Since Li'er said so, she must still be alive."
He was just filled with emotion.
I already have so many cousins and nephews, if I had another father-in-law...
He was afraid that he would have a hard time in the days ahead.
Qu Li did not notice Feng Yi's abnormality, so he didn't know that he had thought so much in such a short time.
After a brief adjustment, Feng Yi put his arm around her waist and jumped down.
“Plop—”
After a huge splash, the two fell into the water.
The water under the Black Wind Cliff was extremely cold. Feng Yi was worried that Qu Li couldn't bear it, so he gave her some internal energy.
"That day, my father was tricked by the high priest into jumping off the Black Wind Cliff. Falling from such a height, he might have passed out."
"So, you mean to say that there's a high chance your father was swept away by the current?"
"Um."
She discovered that the water under the Black Wind Cliff had great buoyancy, and even if she fell and passed out, she would definitely not sink.
"Then we'll see where the current takes us."
Before, he thought that Qu Li’s intuition might be just an obsession, but now he even looks forward to finding his future father-in-law.
The water was too cold. If the two of them continued to soak in the icy water, it would definitely not work. Qu Li looked up and observed for a while, then pointed to a stone not far away and said, "Let's change our clothes first."
Feng Yi's face was full of surprise, feeling that he had touched upon Qu Li's secret.
He calmly suppressed all the emotions in his heart, and calmly climbed up the big rock with Qu Li, patiently waiting for Qu Li to tell him something.
