Wen Shutang frowned and looked at Zhang Dahe, who was wearing tattered clothes. Her eyes were cold and she did not have the slightest pity for him.

It was all his own fault that he had come to this point. If he hadn't been so greedy, she wouldn't have been so heartless.

"I have brought a hundred taels, let him go."

Zhang Dahe sneered, as if mocking her naivety: "Do you really think I will let you go just because you bring the silver?"

Zhou Tong, who was lying on the ground, saw tears in Wen Shutang's eyes. She didn't expect that Wen Shutang was actually willing to pay a hundred taels to redeem her.

"Do you know how I have been through these days? The head of the pavilion sent people to thoroughly investigate what I have done, and now he has sent people to arrest me. All this is caused by you!" Zhang Dahe looked at Wen Shutang with resentment.

"You have brought this upon yourself, you can't blame anyone else."

Wen Shutang was confused by his words. Some people really cannot see their own mistakes until they die, and just keep blaming others.

"Nonsense! It's because of you. If it weren't for you, how could the head of the pavilion care about such a trivial matter! If you, a bitch, had handed over the tofu recipe to me obediently, everyone would still be in harmony now. But you insisted on breaking this balance, so don't blame me for doing something out of line."

Zhang Dahe walked up to Zhou Tong with an axe and put the blade against her stomach.

"If I cut her with this knife, your sister-in-law will be disemboweled."

Zhou Tong was trembling with fear, tears in her eyes dripping down her cheeks onto the ground, and she couldn't stop shaking her head.

"Don't hurt innocent people. It's not too late to turn back."

The hand holding the knife was very unsteady, and it even touched Zhou Tong's stomach a few times, which made Wen Shutang feel nervous.

Zhang Dahe noticed Wen Shutang's nervousness and became even more proud.

"So you can get nervous sometimes. Today I'll let you experience the pain."

"If she had any wound on her body, you wouldn't have the one hundred taels of silver today." Wen Shutang said coldly.

Sure enough, when he heard the one hundred taels, Zhang Dahe stopped what he was doing. He raised his head and looked at Wen Shutang. His eyes rolled around and he immediately turned the axe towards Wen Shutang.

"Hand over the silver."

"Let the people go first."

"I'm not negotiating any conditions with you, hurry up." Zhang Dahe said with a fierce look in his eyes and a vicious tone.

Wen Shutang frowned. She wasn't close to the two of them now, so she really couldn't act rashly. It would be bad if she angered Zhang Dahe. Most importantly, she was afraid that he would hurt Zhou Tong.

She took off the cloth bag from her waist and opened it to reveal a corner of it.

"This is a real one hundred taels of silver."

Zhang Dahe leaned his head out and saw the white corner of the cloth bag, and a look of joy immediately appeared in his eyes.

"Throw the silver over here."

"I'm so sincere, shouldn't you also keep your word?" Wen Shutang approached cautiously with the cloth bag in his hand, his tone tentative.

Zhang Dahe's eyes were always on the cloth bag in her hand, and he didn't care at all that Wen Shutang was approaching.

"Hahahaha, no matter how much money you make, don't you still have to hand it to me with both hands? Wouldn't it be better if you were obedient earlier!"

Zhang Dahe laughed with his head raised, then suddenly looked down at Wen Shutang, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he raised the axe in his hand and chopped at Wen Shutang.

"Go to hell! I can still get the hundred taels of silver even if I kill you two bitches!"

His movements were so quick that before Zhou Tong could react, she only saw a flash of cold light.

Wen Shutang's eyes flashed, he threw the cloth bag away, drew out the short blade given by Xiao Yizhuo from his waist, and dodged the fatal blow in an instant with his cleverness.

Zhang Dahe stood there with the axe in his hand, never expecting that Wen Shutang could dodge the attack.

Not only was he stunned, but even Xiao Yizhuo, who was hiding in the dark and almost appeared, was completely shocked.

His pupils shrank slightly. If it was an ordinary person, he would have been seriously injured by the blow just now, but Wen Shutang was able to dodge so beautifully!

If she didn't have some background, it would be impossible to do it. Xiao Yizhuo was extremely suspicious of her identity at this moment.

Wen Shutang didn't know that Xiao Yizhuo had followed her and saw everything she had just done.

Her breathing was slightly rapid. Her body was too weak and she began to pant after just one big movement.

Zhang Dahe also reacted at this time, and rushed over with the axe in hand. He didn't want the two of them to go back alive today.

Wen Shutang dodged while leading him towards the cave entrance, wanting him to be as far away from Zhou Tong as possible.

Zhang Dahe became more and more impatient, and his eyes towards Wen Shutang became more and more hateful.

Wen Shutang also felt that his body was becoming heavier and heavier. It seemed that he could not delay any longer and had to resolve the issue as soon as possible.

She frowned, held the dagger in one hand and retreated to the cave entrance, waiting for the right moment to crouch down and attack Zhang Dahe's throat.

Zhang Dahe seemed to have not expected Wen Shutang to counterattack, and he wanted to retreat in panic, but he was unable to dodge and was scratched on the neck by her.

Although no vital injuries were inflicted, it succeeded in angering Zhang Dahe, who spat and cursed.

"You stinky bitch, I will kill you today."

Wen Shutang's breathing became more and more rapid, and her physical strength had reached its limit. She gritted her teeth and launched a fierce attack on him without saying a word.

Fortunately, the memory of her years of training is still there, and she has won the fighting championship for several consecutive years.

Zhang Dahe was just a country bumpkin who was cornered into a corner. Naturally, he couldn't resist her sudden and fierce attack.

After several rounds of attacks, Zhang Dahe's body was covered with scratches of varying sizes.

Wen Shutang did not kill her, after all, she didn't want to go to jail.

The short blade scratched his wrist, and the axe in Zhang Dahe's hand fell to the ground, and he fell to the ground in pain.

Wen Shutang had also reached her limit. She half-knelt on the ground, gasping for breath, holding her chest, and looking at the fallen Zhang Dahe with heavy eyes.

My physical fitness is really poor. I have been too comfortable these days. It seems that I should put exercise on the agenda.

She took a while to stand up and untie Zhou Tong who had fainted from fright, but she didn't notice that Zhang Dahe, with a gloomy look on his face, had already climbed up from the ground behind her.

"Go to hell bitch!"

Wen Shutang heard the sound and looked back. The cold blade was close to her, but she had no strength left.

At the critical moment, Zhang Dahe let out a scream and the knife in his hand flew out.

Wen Shutang looked up at the tall figure standing in front of her, her heart choked, and before she could say anything, her vision went dark and she passed out.

Xiao Yizhuo lowered his eyes and looked at Wen Shutang, with a complicated expression on his face.
