Chapter 23 Breakthrough

"Damn! Walking so slowly, I still have to carry you! Walk faster!"

"Grandpa, please be gentle! The old man can't bear to be kicked!"

There were voices of people coming from the forest in the distance, and there were quite a few footsteps. Qi Yang and the others exchanged glances, and then quickly found a place to hide.

The noisy footsteps were getting closer, and the sultry cursing sound became more and more clear.

Not long after, a group of people arrived at the village.

On the outskirts of the crowd are two rows of well-dressed men in black and gray clothes. Each man holds a weapon, such as a long knife or a stick, with a brutal look on his face. The group of people surrounded by these people is obedient, Dressed plainly, most of them are old and weak women and children.

"I advise you, you'd better hand over Xin Yao quickly! Otherwise, I'll fucking kill you!" The swordsman with a scar on his face raised the knife in his hand, pulled a woman and put it in the clip on her neck.

Seeing this situation, A-Han became nervous, Qi Yang put one hand on the back of A-Han's hand, put the other hand away from A-Han's head, let him look at him, and mouthed: Don't be impulsive.

Ahan took a deep breath and nodded.

The woman who was stabbed by the knife was so frightened that her legs became weak and she couldn't stand up. Tears and snot flowed down her face, "Grandpa...you...you...please forgive us!"

The swordsman gave the woman a disgusted look, and kicked her to the ground.

The woman clutched her stomach and groaned for a while. The others looked like they wanted to protect, but they didn't have the ability.

Suddenly, the leading old man knelt down on the ground with a "plop", and immediately after that, all the people behind him knelt down in response.

"Please... please leave a way to survive..." the old man said in a trembling voice.

The swordsman was unmoved, "I will leave you a way to live, but my boss won't give me a way to live! You hand over Xin Yao, and she is good to you. Hey... I don't understand, a woman can be a What an honor for our Walled Master's wife, why don't you people want to!"

"I...we..."

The swordsman lost his patience and shook the knife in his hand, "Today is an ultimatum. If you don't hand over Xin Yao, those men who were arrested in the cottage will go to see the king of Hades! You just wait to receive different ones every day." Head!" After saying that, the swordsman beckoned, and the thieves who surrounded the people followed behind him.

"Weigh it carefully!"

Everyone bowed their bodies and dared not speak.

After those culprits had gone far away, someone moved to help the old man up first.

"Patriarch, why not..."

"Patriarch! Let's hand over Xin Yao! You can't let us all die for her!"

The old man looked dignified and sighed.

At this time, Cang Shu and Xia Yanzhi came out, Qi Yang was a little puzzled, why did these two people come out...

"You... who are you!"

At the moment, those people all looked at Cang Shu and Xia Yanzhi vigilantly, and when they noticed three people coming out from the side, their vigilant expressions became more fearful.

"You don't have to be afraid, we are just passing by here." When Cang Shu spoke, he glanced at all the people in front of him, and analyzed that their clothes were no different from those of the people in the Central Plains, and the ancient Yue people should be wearing special ancient Yue costumes That's right.

"Hey... Since you are a tourist, then get out of here!" The old man shook his head, his tone helpless.

Cang Shu bowed his hands to the old man, and then continued, "Old man, we came here to find the ancient Yue tribe, but when we arrived at the ancient Yue village, we didn't see a single person, and then we saw you coming."

The old man frowned, "We are just ordinary refugees who fled here. Seeing that this place is deserted, we live here. I don't know the ancient Yue tribe."

It doesn't look like the old man is lying, and even though the ancient Yue tribe is a small and remote tribe, they still have strength, so they won't be bullied like this.

"Then can you ask those people just now?"

"Hey...they are bandits nearby. Our family has escaped and lived a decent life so far. Ever since these bandits came here, we haven't had a good day." The old man couldn't help crying, and touched face, and then reach out to the person next to him.

The woman next to him immediately bent over and took half a step forward, supporting the old man with a respectful look.

Cang Shu looked at this scene, and guessed in his heart that this is probably because a certain big clan has fallen here, otherwise there would be no such etiquette, and these people also call the old man the head of the clan, if it is not a big clan with quite a class distinction, they will not There is such a title.

Someone watched Cang Shu and his group whispering in the background, Qi Yang's hearing was very good, and he could clearly hear that those people were probably guessing their identities.

"Patriarch." A middle-aged woman came up from behind. The woman saluted first, then leaned closer to the old man and said softly, "I see that these people should be Jianghu swordsmen, why don't we ask them to save us."

The old man just gave the woman who spoke a look, and the woman immediately turned green and stepped back, not daring to speak.

"Young students, you have also seen that we are suffering from bandits now, so you'd better get out of here as soon as possible."

Cang Shu and the others exchanged glances tacitly, only Huo Lian approached the old man foolishly, and said with a smile, "Patriarch, we are tired after driving for many days, why don't you let us stay here?" Rest in the village for one night, how about we drive out bandits for you!"

Huo Lian felt that the condition he gave was not too tempting. He raised his eyebrows at Cang Shu and they wanted them to praise him, but he rolled his eyes in exchange.

The old man's expression froze, but he still tried his best to put on an amiable look, "Thank you, it's just that it's not convenient for outsiders to participate in the affairs of the clan, so please leave here quickly."

Huo Lian said "ah" and wanted to speak, but Xia Yanzhi grabbed his shoulder and said a word coldly, "Let's go."

Huo Lian, "..."

Cang Shu and the others bid farewell, then turned and left.

When they reached the mountain outside the village, except for Huo Lian, they all stopped in unison.

"Why don't you leave?" Huo Lian called out.

Several people did not answer, Qi Yang and Cang Shu stood together, overlooking the ancient Yue village below.

"Brother Qi Yang, what do you think?" Cang Shu asked.

Qi Yang's eyes darkened, and he looked at the village in his eyes playfully, "These people don't know Gu Yue, and they came here after fleeing for their lives. It's not a lie, it's just..."

"It's just that it's not a good choice for a down-and-out big family to flee here. The ancient Yue people are located in a remote place with mountains and dense forests. If the ancient Yue people live here, according to their habits, it's not bad, but if a pampered It is really puzzling for the ethnic group to come here. Besides, it is hard to find the village of the ancient Yue clan, and it is amazing that they were able to find it. The place where the ancient Yue people lived."

Qi Yang sneered, "All the coincidences are intentional, I don't want to believe it's a coincidence."

Cang Shu pursed her lips and smiled, "Well, besides, this matter is related to the Guyue clan, so it seems necessary to investigate."

"Hey, hey, hello! What are you talking about? Are we still on our way?" Huo Lian moved between the two of them, looking left and right, "Hey... Hey!!" Before he could continue talking, Huo Lian He was lifted aside by Xia Yanzhi like a kitten, "Quiet."

Huo Lian, "..."

Oh shit!

Qi Yang gave Huo Lian a slash, and then said, "Maybe we can break through that girl named Xin Yao."
