Break the line

But the moment he turned his head, he saw the shock in Li Zui's eyes, Li Zui rushed towards her, hugged her and rolled on the ground, Kan Jian rushed over and picked up the sword and threw it on the book, a man in black with a crossbow fell straight down down.Looking at Li Zui again, he got a deep arrow in his right shoulder blade.Meng Hui cut off the arrow handle: "Kan Jian, carry her to the forest house, and I will pull the arrow!"

Li Zui struggled and shouted: "Small injury, don't withdraw, hold on!"

Meng Hui held her tightly, and Li Zui stared at her with red eyes: "Meng Hui! Trust me!"

"it is good!"

So several people joined the battle here again, with their backs facing each other, fighting the enemy with their swords, I will protect your back with my life!

"The chief is back!"

"Finger attack, kill the enemy!" Suddenly shouts came from outside the village, Chao Buyu brought people back to rescue, and the remaining men in black quickly gathered and retreated to the lake. Soon, more than a dozen men in black were trapped On the altar in the middle of the lake, it is the drum stage of the water festival.

Suddenly, a familiar voice came out: "Amei, Aya! Help me!" The leader of the man in black pushed out a figure, with a long sword tightly pressed against her neck, it was a persimmon tree!The chasing crowd stopped suddenly, and Chao Buyu stepped forward, pointing his sword at the man in black: "Let her go! I'll spare you, go back to your territory!"

The man in black grinned: "Unfortunately, my task is not to stay alive, so your conditions are useless!"

Chao Buyu put down his sword: "What do you want? Say it!"

The man in black shouted: "Li Zui's life! Change the hostage!"

"Presumptuous!" Chao Buyu pointed his sword at the man in black.

Chao Buyu would shout: "Li Zui is my dearest relative! If you hurt my daughter in the slightest, Chao Buyu swears, and the mountains and rivers will prove it, and I will kill everything you have!"

The man in black laughed loudly: "Chao Buyu, you saved yourself with your sister 18 years ago, why, this time you saved your niece with your own daughter's life? I'll count to three, if Li Zui can't come, I will kill your daughter !"

"three two……"

"I'm here!" Before he finished speaking, Li Zui rushed out of the crowd and stood beside Chao Buyu, half of his shoulder was already soaked with blood, and Meng Hui pressed her tightly.

Li Zui turned around and looked at her apologetically: "That's my sister, it's all because of me."

As he spoke, he managed to free his hand from Meng Hui's palm bit by bit.

Li Zuifei jumped over Chao Buyu and went straight to the altar in the middle of the lake, the man in black smiled, although the whole army was wiped out, but luckily he survived.

However, with a tremor of the sword in his hand, the persimmon tree under the blade actually cut down!The man in black was taken aback, and the persimmon tree had already plopped into the lake.Li Zui jumped into the water and swam towards his cousin's sinking figure!

Chapter 37

Li Zui sank after the persimmon tree figure, the man in black on the lake regained his composure, and immediately raised the sword in his hand high, aiming at the water to stab him.

With a bang, a golden dart hit the sword of the man in black, splitting the blade in two. It was indeed a magical weapon. A trace of surprise flashed in Chao Buyu's eyes, but he had no time to think, and led everyone straight Kill them, and kill and arrest the remaining dozen or so men in black.At the same time, Meng Hui, Kan Jian, Luo Zijuan, Alisma, and several Tosi warriors had already jumped into the water to save people. Blood streaks floating on the surface of the water could be seen faintly. fist, not knowing what he was thinking.

Suddenly, "A Ya!" It was Shishu's voice, full of spirit, and the crowd cheered. Shishu carried Li Zui up to the shore of the lake, and Li Zui, who was seriously injured, finally couldn't hold on and was on the verge of falling.A white figure rushed forward one by one, and caught her steadily, Li Zui, how can I repay the grace of saving my life.

In the night, the village is brightly lit.Cleaning the battlefield, caring for the disabled, and investigating and defending are all carried out in an orderly manner.In the forest room on the second floor, Uncle Chao sat firmly on the hall with a stern expression on his face. Aunt Chao was beside him, checking the neck of the persimmon tree. chamber.Meng Hui sat beside her, while Cheng Qi, Luo Zijuan and others stood behind her.On the other side were the people from Shanshuidao and Tosi. After the battle, they were exhausted but excited, and everyone's eyes were on fire.

"Zhao Ji, tell me." Chao Buyu spoke.

A short and fat man stood up with his arms folded: "There are five explosive boats at the pier, where do you get so much sulfur?" Zhao Ji looked to the west and continued, "The sulfur in our Southwest is smuggled from Xizhou! We all know , only Xizhou has a huge sulfur mine!"

The word Xizhou popped out, and there were whispers in the room immediately. Chao Buyu glanced at the hall, but seeing that Meng Hui was indifferent, he just stretched out his hand to check if Li Zui's forehead had a fever, and the old man let out a sour snort .

But Zhao Ji thought that the boss was getting impatient, so he quickly continued: "Second, last month at the mouth of the sea in the east, Xizhou used a boat full of explosives to pick up the three teams of Jingjiwei, and even Lu Buqiu was injured. You are familiar with recruiting!"

There was an immediate commotion in the hall, especially the Shanshuidao and Tosi people. Although the cooperation with Xizhou smuggling was smooth before, but this time it is a blood feud, and Southwest Kyushu must ask for an explanation!

Teng Ke stood up and then reported the process of guarding the village. The enemy was obviously on guard. There was nothing special about their clothes, weapons, or even kung fu. All the captured survivors swallowed poison and committed suicide.

Meng Hui suddenly raised his head and met Chao Buyu's sweeping gaze, there was deep meaning in his eyes, it seemed inconvenient to elaborate in class.Chao Buyu said: "Blow up my pier, kill my people, the blood debt must be paid in blood. But the most important thing at present is to save people and repair the Zhaizi pier. Go back and rest today, and make a specific investigation and decision later!"

Shanshuidao and the Tuoxi people retreated one after another, but Li Zui ordered Kan Jian to lead Cheng Qi and the others to retreat as well. Fuling Alisma saw Meng Hui's eyes and obediently retreated.Only Uncle Chao's family, Li Zui, and Meng Hui were left in the conference hall.

Meng Hui got up and saluted: "It's not Xizhou."

Chao Buyu looked into her eyes: "Okay, if you say no, then no."

Li Zui on the side was stunned. Isn't Meng Hui the Pope's man? Why did he give Xizhou a guarantee instead, and that old fox uncle believed it without doubting it.

Chao Buyu looked at Li Zui's stupid face, heartbroken, but you two have been close friends for so many days, and you don't even know her other identity!How could the Chao family give birth to such a fool!

Meng Hui stretched out his hand to touch Li Zui's forehead again, it was a little burning, and said lightly: "Go back and explain in detail, don't worry, be obedient."

Li Zui regained his composure, but walked towards the persimmon tree in his aunt's arms, this was the purpose of her staying here.She watched the persimmon tree go up against the blade of the sword with her own eyes, the blade must have cut her neck, otherwise the man in black wouldn't have taken two steps back in horror.But when she grabbed the persimmon tree in the water, she felt that her strong body was not injured, and she even grabbed herself, and rushed to the shore of the lake to get out of the water in a few strokes.

Li Zui's eyes were full of confusion, Shi Shu met his cousin's gaze, and leaned into his mother's arms with a guilty conscience.Chao Buyu let out a long sigh: "At first, I wanted to wait until you came back from the Pope and you were really free before going into details. Since you want to know now, Shi Shu, let her see it."

Shi Shu stared at his father with wide eyes, and then at his mother. Aunt Chao gently stroked the back of her head, yes, they were all relatives and would not harm her.The little girl untied the braid around her neck, exposing her neck. The slender neck was densely covered with small and hard scales. The persimmon tree let out a sigh of relief, and the scales opened, revealing a gap , like fish gills.

I didn't expect to talk about it so soon, Chao Buyu was not sure, after all, Li Zui had been raised in the capital all these years, whether she could accept such a cousin, or just treat them as monsters like the orthodox mongrel.Li Zui stretched out his hand and lightly touched the scales on her neck, and in the middle there was a white scratch that scratched several scales. It should be caused by the man in black's sword. "Persimmon tree, does it hurt?" His eyes were full of pity .Chao Buyu finally felt relieved, look, he valued friendship, this is very much the Chao family.

"Zhaoxuan, do you know that people in Xizhou are all different types?"

"Well, I heard that they are all half-demon people left over from the disaster of the Golden City."

"It's not a half-demon, but a foreigner. They are flesh and blood like you and me, and have parents and brothers, but the difference is that they are different from ordinary people. Some people in Xizhou can see things several miles away. There are those who are six feet tall and have three heads and six arms. The Tosi tribe is originally a branch of aliens. They are different from Xizhou's changeable alienation. This aliens mutated into fish earlier and passed on from generation to generation. , the fish scales on the neck of the persimmon tree can withstand the cuts of the sword."

Li Zui gritted his teeth to soothe his pounding heart. What he heard today overturned too many cognitions: "Because of the gills of the fish, is the persimmon tree able to rescue us from the vortex?"

Chao Buyu nodded.

"I know you can't accept it for a while, listen to me slowly. When I first traveled to the southwest, I knew about the Tosi people, but what surprised me even more was the locals. Not only did they not persecute the Tosi people, or Like us, we drove all the aliens to Xizhou, and we have lived peacefully with them for hundreds of years, doing business, hiring workers, and even intermarriage. By coincidence, I also became friends with my father-in-law I met your aunt."

Uncle Chao glanced at his aunt beside him, and a shyness appeared on his serious face.

"When I came to the southwest again, she liked me, and I also wanted to, so I married and settled here. In the past 18 years, the mountains and rivers have developed rapidly, and the contacts between the Tosi people and the people in the southwest have become more frequent and ordinary. In order to avoid trouble, I ordered them to hide If you know your own secrets, you should only be a native of the forest, not a stranger."

Li Zui looked at the persimmon tree
