Chapter Twenty-Four(1/2)
Xiao Lang frowned slightly. To be honest, he didn't like this woman at all. If Master Mo Qi were in this situation, he would definitely save her if he could. Unfortunately, he and Master Mo Qi just now
The man is separated and no one knows where he is being held now.
Jia Xu looked at Xiao Lang and asked, "Do you know her?"
——Forget it, at least he is not a treacherous and evil person, saving one life is better than building a seven-level pagoda, so that’s fine.
After reading this, Xiao Lang nodded and said: "If possible, sir, please spare her life."
"Let her go." Jia Xu turned around and ordered. He didn't pay much attention to such a trivial matter.
"Thank you, thank you General Xiao."
After being released from the shackles, Fahrenhe immediately rushed forward like an octagonal fish and hugged Xiao Lang tightly, just like a drowning person unwilling to let go of the life-saving straw.
"Sister-in-law, help!"
"Girl of the Hua family, help me!"
The rest of these people seemed to be her regular relatives. Now that they saw that Fahrenheit could be spared from death, why didn't they beg for mercy like dogs?
Although their appearance is not good-looking, and they show all kinds of ugliness in life and death, after all, they are just ordinary people, not proud and capable people.
Hua Shi looked at Xiao Lang with difficulty.
She is also a shrewd woman. From the attitude of the scribe-looking guy towards Xiao Lang, she understood that the life and death of these people is entirely a matter of Xiao Lang's words. But the problem is that she also saw it from Xiao Lang's frown before.
, Xiao Langlai didn’t even want to care about her life or death.
Although he didn't know that He Xiaolang would have such great ability, Fahrenhe subconsciously recognized that Xiao Lang was the craftsman who was sent to the Ghost Vulture Palace.
This seems to be the only reasonable explanation, but at this moment, don't say that Xiao Lang is just being careful. Even the former enemy who killed his father, Fahrenheit, has to give in.
Xiao Lang's frown deepened. He took his arms out from Hua's towering chest and said to Jia Xu, "If these people are not guilty of serious crimes, please make it easier for them."
"It's a small matter." Jia Xu said, then waved his hand and ordered the soldiers to let the group of guys go.
Xiao Lang turned to face Hua and said: "You take them and take care of the people I brought, and I can keep you safe. Remember, if you cause trouble for me, I won't be able to keep you second."
Second-rate."
Naturally, Fahrenheit's relatives and friends hurriedly nodded in agreement like chickens pecking at rice.
After dealing with them, Xiao Lang first pushed open the closed door of Master Mo Qi's courtyard and walked in. Liushou and Dazui, who were guarding the door of the side room in fear, heard the door being pushed open and thought there was an enemy outside.
The soldiers were finally ready to force their way in. Just when they were about to attack, they saw that it was their master who came in, followed by more than a dozen black-armored soldiers. They didn't look like they were being escorted back. He immediately ran out and asked confusedly.
Said: "Master..."
Xiao Lang waved his hand and asked first: "Are you all okay?"
The two of them nodded, and Xiao Lang continued: "That's good. Don't go out during this period if you have anything to do. I'll come back to you when I have time."
"Master, what is this?" Da Zui asked innocently.
Xiao Lang didn't want to let Jia Xu wait, so he said first: "I'm fine, I'm safe. I'll tell you the details later. By the way, you two should also keep an eye on these people for me. Don't let them cause trouble."
.”
Finally, he said to Fahrenheit: "If you still have servants in your house, it would be best to move to the side room."
Although Xiao Lang obviously wanted to occupy the magpie's nest, Hua naturally did not dare not agree. In his heart, he only hoped that Xiao Lang could live here forever. After all, although Cao Ren ordered not to break into private houses, these ghost vultures
The aboriginal people of the city don't know, and no one would feel safe if there were so many killing stars guarding their homes.
But just when Fahrenheit was about to nod in agreement, suddenly a little girl with braids jumped out of the main hall and said in a sweet voice: "You bad guys, this is my home. If you don't leave, I will kill you."
You’re welcome!”
After seeing the person clearly, he said again: "Hey, it's mother? Mother, I'm here to save you without saying a word. Bad guy, watch your move!"
If she hadn't said that, everyone would have almost overlooked that the little girl was holding a mahogany dagger in her hand.
It is said that she is a little girl, mainly because her voice is too milky and her face is childish. But if you look closely, you can see that she is more like a well-developed young girl with a bud.
It looks like a small lotus with sharp corners exposed, making the clothes bulge.
However, it was obvious that the black-armored soldiers behind Xiao Lang who were supposed to protect Jia Xu did not care whether the opponent was male or female, old or young. It was not like they had not fought those cultivators before, nor had they ever suffered the loss of underestimating the enemy.
Seeing that the opponent dared to hold a "murderous weapon", he immediately formed a formation, and a red murderous aura shot out like a sword!
"No!" Fahrenheit screamed in horror.
Hua belongs to the least talented group of people in the Hua family, otherwise she would not have been "reduced" to the point of marrying Master Mo Qi. However, her eyesight is pretty good, and she knows that her daughter is definitely not capable of these soldiers.
opponent.
Xiao Lang sighed in his heart. Since he had saved those guys who were beyond his reach just now, of course Master Mo Qi's daughter could not just watch her die.
Sacrifice the sword, draw the sword, swing the sword, sheath the sword, all in one go.
The red murderous aura disappeared without a trace in an instant, but even so, the biting chill still made the little girl fall to the ground in fright, her eyes suddenly turned red, and she was about to shed tears.
Xiao Lang walked to the little girl, stretched out his hand and said, "Can you stand up?"
It seemed that this little girl was really tough-minded and managed not to cry. However, she stubbornly slapped Xiao Lang's hand aside and said, "You are a bad person too!"
Xiao Lang retracted his hand in embarrassment. It seemed that after being dealt many good guy cards, this was the first time he received a bad guy card.
"General Xiao, Master Xiao, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, she's not sensible if you don't say anything. Don't blame her. What's wrong? Just punish me."
Hua Shi rushed over in three steps and two steps, running and crawling on the ground. He knelt down directly beside Xiao Lang, hugged his thigh and begged bitterly.
No matter how bad this Fahrenheit is, she is still a mother. If she didn't dare to ask Xiao Lang to save her relatives and friends before, she is now willing to give her own life in exchange for her daughter's.
's life.
Well, now Xiao Lang really looks like a rogue who can destroy flowers with ruthless hands.
"Take her to the side room." Xiao Lang didn't bother to explain and said directly to Hua.
Fahrenheit kowtowed to Xiao Lang three times, until his forehead was bruised. Then he picked up his daughter and walked away.
The black-armored soldiers who took action looked at Jia Xu with difficulty. The leader hesitated for a while before saying: "Military advisor, this..."
Cao Ren has an order that anyone who is hostile to his side, regardless of gender, old or young, will be killed on the spot without fail. But obviously, this little girl is facing each other with a sword, and her hostility is very obvious.
"This is Captain Xiao's family, not the enemy." Jia Xu lied for Xiao Langyuan: "You can also report this matter directly to General Cao. If something happens, you will not be held responsible."
"yes."
Although this soldier is loyal to his duty, his brain is not as fast as Jia Xu's. If this little girl is defined as a civilian in Ghost Vulture City, then Jia Xu can't actually force them to violate military orders. After all, this article is better than the one that released Fahrenheit just now.
Their nature is completely different, but if they are said to be the "military relatives" of their own captain, it is nothing more than a child's joke.
Jia Xu then walked up to Xiao Lang and asked jokingly: "Are you done? Can we start talking about business?"
Xiao Lang held up his hands to apologize and said, "Thank you for making me laugh, sir."
Jia Xu waved his hand and said: "No, Mr. Xiao values love and righteousness. Of course I have no reason not to appreciate him."
It seemed that he had misunderstood Xiao Lang's original intention of saving Hua's mother and daughter.
But Xiao Lang couldn't answer the call. What he faced was not Jia Xu and Jia Wenhe, the other demon stars in the Three Kingdoms, but the chaotic and martial wise man known as the poisonous man.
As if he had seen through Xiao Lang's thoughts, Jia Xu walked into the main hall and said to himself: "Benevolence, justice, propriety, wisdom and trust are the five principles of a gentleman. Although I cannot be benevolent and righteous, it does not mean that I do not admire such a person."
, Even a villain will inevitably not have the thought of standing tall in his heart when facing a gentleman. But Xiao Lang, I know you are not a gentleman, but in such troubled times, those who can guard their hearts are not a villain.
people."
"Then according to what Mr. Wang said, those who benefit themselves at the expense of others are actually not villains. Are only those who benefit others at the expense of others?"
After Xiao Lang said this, he felt a little regretful. This was really a bit shallow. After all, if it were based on the real setting of Jia Xu in the Three Kingdoms, he was such a master who liked to benefit himself at the expense of others. It was quite ironic to say so.
His intention.
Although Xiao Lang was not afraid of Jia Xu's revenge, there was no need to show off his rhetoric in front of him.
Jia Xu glanced at Xiao Lang thoughtfully, smiled slightly, and then said: "You strangers, you really suit my temper. Maybe it's because we are the same kind of people."
But at this point, it was obvious that Jia Xu didn't want to talk further, so he turned to ask: "What are your plans for the future?"
Xiao Lang was startled. He originally thought that Jia Xu would first ask him how he came to Si Guidao and how he "worshiped" into the Ghost Vulture Palace, but he didn't expect that Jia Xu would directly ask him about his future plans.
Xiao Lang thought for a while and replied honestly: "I want to go back."
"Can you find a way to go back?" Jia Xu asked.
Xiao Lang shook his head.
Jia Xu said: "In that case, why not just stay and help me? When you find a way back, you can leave and I won't stop you."
I really didn't expect that Jia Xu would directly express his intention to recruit Xiao Lang as soon as he came up. Xiao Lang was a little caught off guard, and after thinking about it for a while, he said, "I'm afraid I can't be of much help."
Jia Xu smiled and said: "You and I are both smart people, so why use this excuse to prevaricate me? I think you also know me well, and you should understand that if you really can't help, then I can't help you."
Why bother talking?"
Xiao Lang smiled bitterly in his heart. To be honest, there is really no need to fight with a demon of this level. It would be easier to open the skylight and speak frankly, and just say directly: "I have my concerns."
Jia Xu said: "I know, I'm just worried about whether it will be easy to get on or off the pirate ship. You can rest assured."
Xiao Lang said: "You are talking nonsense, and I am not the only one living in Sigui Road. How can you let me rest assured?"
