Immediately, Xie Hongyan felt a tightness in his chest, vomited blood, and felt the pain of being hit by stones.

"Ah! It hurts! You...you are a useless concubine, why do you know martial arts?"

The others were so scared that they quickly hid back to their families. The Second Master didn't dare to come over. He felt that Shi Shuang in front of him was too terrifying. It was unbelievable that he could walk out of the siege by so many officers and soldiers.

The second wife hugged her daughter and said distressedly, "Yan'er, are you okay?"

"Mother, this little bitch hit me..." Xie Hongyan said angrily while hiding behind the Second Madam.

The second wife was also hit several times and she took a deep breath.

"Enough! Stop it, Shi Shuang. As a junior, are you going to hit an elder like this? Don't you see that the elders of the Xie family are still here? How can you be so presumptuous here?"

The three elders of the Xie family were hiding in the back.

Being called out suddenly, he could only stand up and coughed softly, "Daughter-in-law Xie Wei, a harmonious family brings prosperity. Stop fighting. Besides, she is also your elder."

Shi Shuang sneered: "Some elders are just bullies who take advantage of their age. Where were you when Xie Wei was bullied when he was young? When the family was confiscated and exiled, you rushed to insult your mother-in-law. Just now during the battle, you cowered and hid in the back, afraid of death!

You can only see when you eat!"

The second lady's eyes changed, and she hurriedly said to the elder: "Oh, second uncle, look, she scolded us and called us pigs!"

The three elders are the old general’s younger brothers.

The elder's beard was white and had grown to his abdomen. "What a joke! Xie Wei, you need to discipline your wife, or she will cause a big fuss!"

Xie Wei sneered.

"If it weren't for her, you would all be dead."

"You..." The Great Elder was already weak and fainted from anger.

The second elder sighed, "It's a misfortune for our family."

The third elder was younger and snorted coldly.

"I think what Yan'er said is right. If it weren't for her, we would have died on the road to exile sooner or later."

"Let us die. Now we are fugitives!" The second elder was so angry that he blew his beard and glared.

The third elder was furious. "For a dynasty like this, if you become a fugitive, then so be it. It's no longer a country, and the king is no longer a king. Sooner or later, it will fall!"

That's true.

Shi Shuang remembered that the book said that ever since General Xie was falsely accused, talented people in the court were also framed by treacherous villains, and the treacherous officials colluded with other countries. Soon, the city fell and the country was destroyed.

Of course, Fengzi's life was not easy when he became emperor.

They treated the people of Zhou as the lowest kind of animals, and wherever the soldiers of Feng State went, they raped, killed, looted, and committed all kinds of evil.

For a moment, everyone was silent.

Because what the Third Elder said was the truth. If it weren't for the Emperor, his family would still be living well in Shengjing, enjoying wealth and glory. But now they had to be exiled at such an old age, and now they had become fugitives again.

Mother Xie came over, helped the great elder up, and spoke earnestly.

"My daughter-in-law saved everyone from danger. The road of exile is unbearable, not to mention that there are so many female relatives. They are wolves. If they don't show their fangs today, they will show them tomorrow! What is the difference between fugitives and criminals? At least, we are free now."

"Ah!" The great elder sighed deeply. He glanced at Shi Shuang and still felt unhappy. As a youngster, you should respect your elders!

Shi Shuang snorted coldly. He must be an elder worthy of respect!

at this time.

The old butler came over and knelt on the ground, "Madam, all the officers and soldiers have been killed!"

"Shuang'er, what should we do next?"

Xie's mother turned around and looked at the corpses of the officers and soldiers, her heart trembling with fear.

Shi Shuang's eyes flickered slightly, and she raised her voice slightly, saying: "The Xie family is under close scrutiny by the court, and they will definitely be discovered soon. I estimate that they will order their execution by hanging. We must run quickly!"

Run? Run...

The other members of the Xie family suddenly realized what was happening. Their faces were filled with panic. They quickly snatched the officers' and soldiers' belongings and ran away.

Xie Hongyan sneered: "Shi Shuang, you killed them, and you are in trouble."

She turned around and followed her parents. She looked at the whistle around her neck with a wicked smile in her eyes. "Little bitch, I'm going to make sure you die without a burial place!"

The first elder and the second elder were also carried away.

The third elder came over, patted Xie Yan on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, your father will be fine."

He looked around, which was full of corpses, sighed, turned around and followed the main force.

Xie Wei's eyes were burning, "Did you do this on purpose?"

"I don't want to go with them." Shi Shuang's mouth curled up and he raised his chin slightly.

It is to scare them away on purpose to avoid trouble on the road.

However, she was right, the imperial officers and soldiers would soon come to reinforce.

Mother Xie asked worriedly: "Where are we going next?"

The next second, Village Chief Kong came tremblingly over and knelt on the ground: "Thank you for saving my life, would you like to stay in our village?"

"We are criminals and now fugitives. Do you know what the crime of harboring a fugitive is?" Shi Shuang asked with his arms folded across his chest and his head tilted.

Village Chief Kong smiled and said, "The whole village will die, but without you, we would have died long ago. Besides, our village is far away, and there is a bandit's nest next to it. People from the imperial court usually don't dare to come."

He held his granddaughter and spoke expectantly.

"Benefactor, please come here. You are not fugitives, you are good people."

Shi Shuang looked at Xie Wei.

Xie Wei hesitated for a few seconds, then nodded and said, "Let's go and tidy up first."

"Okay, thank you for your help then." Shi Shuang replied.

Before leaving, they cleaned up the scene to prevent the imperial officers and soldiers from suspecting Kongjia Village.

After walking for almost a day, it was almost dawn.

At the entrance of the village, there were many people holding torches, seemingly looking at something.

Shi Shuang slightly tightened the dagger in her hand, "It seems like there is someone there."

"Don't worry, benefactor." Village Chief Kong said hurriedly, "These are all villagers."

An old woman in a headscarf ran over anxiously.

"Old man, why are you half an hour slower than before? Why is there so much blood on your body? Hey, who are they...?"

"These are our benefactors. Let's not talk about this for now. Let's quickly prepare new clothes and some food so that we can thank them properly."

When Village Chief Kong returned home, his hand tremors eased a little, and he gave instructions in an orderly manner.

When the old woman heard this, she quickly asked the people behind her to prepare.

There has been famine in the village for many years, there are bandits nearby, and the imperial court has imposed heavy taxes. They can no longer afford to eat and can only dig wild vegetables. In recent years, wild vegetables have been difficult to find, so they can only go to far away places to dig them.

The village chief can only take the young people in the village out.

After the ordeal, they missed their families very much. They all wiped their tears and followed their families home, telling them about their experiences along the way.

The old woman slammed the table, her head dizzy with anger, "These bastards! They are really evil!"

It makes me scared just thinking about it.

She hurriedly hugged Kong Lian'er and cried.

Xie's mother felt the same way and her eyes couldn't help but tear up. They all changed into clean clothes.

This is what a human being is like.

After becoming a fugitive, she actually felt a lot more relaxed.

The old woman pulled her daughter to her knees and kowtowed, saying, "I thank you on behalf of all the young and old in the village!"

"It's just a piece of cake." Shi Shuang helped her up, "It's us who are going to cause you trouble."

The old woman waved her hands and said, "No, no, no, we are very happy that you can come, but we don't have anything good to treat you."

There was a commotion outside. The villagers heard about what happened to the child and came to express their gratitude.
