Jing Yu shook his head in his heart. Ruo Qinger had just killed that person in one go. Now, seeing the other party's pitiful look of begging for mercy, and it was her first time facing a situation where she killed someone, it was really difficult to do it.
However, if she didn't kill this person, the others would only need to kneel and beg for mercy when she attacked, and they would be able to escape death. If she could be soft-hearted to one person, she could also be soft-hearted to others. In this way, not a single person could be killed.
Should she hope that one of those bandits would be tougher and take the initiative to fight her under such circumstances, and not retreat even in the face of life and death? Jing Yu glanced around and saw the expressions of joy and anticipation on the bandits 'faces. He knew that it was impossible…Those people were eager for their companions to die.
Jing Yu's eyes narrowed, revealing a cold smile.
After dodging Qinger's attack, the bandit boss who had been observing him secretly cried out. He still had some brains, so he could see the current situation more clearly.
If the girl didn't kill anyone, then the conditions that the Xiang family's young master had mentioned earlier wouldn't be fulfilled. When the time came, they would have to face him…Although he only had the appearance of a child, from the fact that he had killed two people in a row without changing his expression, killing them would not be a burden to him.
What should he do? Was he going to stand out and be killed? That was something he would never do even if he was beaten to death. However, if no one died, the final result would be that all of them would die…and he would not be able to escape death. As he thought about this, he looked at his companions in his heart and could not help but reveal a ruthless expression. In the blink of an eye, he had already jumped behind one of his companions and suddenly pushed him towards the girl who seemed to be in a daze.
However, it was also at this moment that the girl gently thrust the sword in her hand forward, clearly piercing the chest of the bandit lying on the ground. His begging expression froze, and he twitched a few times. His whole body relaxed and he lay on the grass.
Perhaps it was because of the disbelief in the bandit's eyes before he died, Qinger was so shocked that she let go of the sword in her hand and took a few steps back. Then, Jing Yu hugged her from behind. He held her hands tightly and comforted her,
"It's okay, it's okay. You did well.”
Yes, she did a good job. Even he didn't expect her to stab him.
" I didn't want to, I didn't want to…" Qinger shook her head vigorously." I was just too scared…"
She was afraid that he would look disappointed in her! As long as she thought about being stared at by him like that, Qinger would feel despair. She didn't want that to happen, so she stabbed out…Her body's reaction was faster than her hesitation.
"Yes, I know. I know everything.”
Jing Yu held her hand and walked towards the fire without looking at the others. The bandit leader, who was pushing his companion towards Qinger, stopped awkwardly. He was facing the gazes of all his subordinates. After pausing for about 10 seconds, he suddenly pushed away the man he had grabbed earlier and ran away desperately. The others also reacted and ran in all directions.
Just as he helped Qinger sit down, Jing Yu left behind a sentence,'I'm going to do something, I'll be back soon' and disappeared on the spot with a whoosh. Then, several screams sounded from different directions in the wilderness. From the sound, Qinger knew that none of the criminals had escaped. This thought made her shiver. She moved closer to the fire. Perhaps this was the only way to dispel the fear brought by the surrounding darkness.
She naturally didn't know that Jing Yu didn't intend to let these people off from the start…even after saying that he would let them live. If the other party was just a robber, he wouldn't have treated him like this. However, since the first person he killed could say such words, it crossed his bottom line…These people had to die.
Not long after, Jing Yu returned with the black sword and stabbed it beside the carriage. He picked up the branch with the roast chicken on it and sat beside Qinger to roast the pheasant.
Qinger was dumbfounded." That…Young Master, may I ask, do you still intend to eat it here?”She looked nauseous and tried to cover it up so as not to affect Jing Yu's appetite.
"Although it's not safe to travel at night, I'm afraid that the dead people around you won't be able to make you feel at ease.”Jing Yu saw this and smiled in his heart." We'll leave after we're done roasting. We'll eat as we walk…After a day of traveling and exercising, I'm really a little hungry.”
Qinger smiled unnaturally. She wanted to help Jing Yu roast the other chicken, but she didn't want to take another look…that would remind her of how she killed it, and indirectly, of the person she had just killed.
Jing Yu took the branch from her hand and said when she showed an apologetic expression,"After today, if you don't want to kill anyone in the future, I won't force you. I just hope that you can act when it's time…sometimes letting an enemy run away isn't kindness, but cruelty in disguise. Imagine, what if the enemy hurt the people around you later? For example, if I was injured by the enemy you let go, how would you feel?”
Qinger could not help but tremble when she imagined such a situation. She finally understood why Jing Yu had asked her to do this today. The guilt of murder in her heart had lessened, and the discomfort had also improved a lot. He then took the roast chicken from Jing Yu's hands and said with a smile,"
"Young master, I'll do it myself.”
Jing Yu nodded in relief.
Not long after, the two of them started the carriage. In the dark night, they slowly moved forward with lights and torches. Qinger still didn't have much of an appetite, but Jing Yu was munching on his tender and crispy muscles, occasionally drinking a mouthful of fine wine. He didn't know how long he had walked for. Just as he was taking his last sip, Qinger pouted as if she had suddenly thought of something and muttered,
"Young Master, can you go back on your word? He said that he would go around those bandits, but he killed them all. Then what you promised Qinger is also…"
"Ahem…"
Jing Yu choked. The wine made his throat heat up. After panting a few times, he looked at Qinger's eager expression and could not help but feel a headache.
"Qinger, you're different from them…"
That night, Jing Yu slept late for once…In the end, Qinger quietly came to the conclusion that she should pull him to have a baby earlier. However, Qinger was a little troubled about how to give birth. She still didn't know that what she did with Jing Yu every night was only one step away from having a baby.
After crossing the Yellow River, they entered the Qi Country. Then, they passed through the Wei River and finally entered the Yan Country. Along the way, because there was no one to protect it, this carriage was favored by bandits. Without exception, those people became the souls of the dead under Jing Yu's sword. It was unknown who had spread the news, but when the two of them were resting in a tavern on the way, they heard rumors of a paladin who used a black sword…Jing Yu really didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
As expected, Qinger did not take the initiative to kill anyone after that. However, when Jing Yu was killing people, she could also not look away…This could be considered an improvement.
Seeing that the capital of Yan Country was in sight, Qinger asked curiously,"Young Master, why did you come to Yan Country this time?”
"I heard that there is a dancer here who is especially good at Zhao Wu.”Jing Yu leaned on her shoulder." If she can satisfy me, I'll snatch her away."”He laughed.
Qinger could tell that he was joking. She also did not believe that her young master would travel a long distance to Yan Country just to see a dancer's dance. In fact, when he was in Chu, he had never shown any interest in dancing. Otherwise, she would have learned dancing to please him.
However, Qing 'er's eyes moved agilely and she asked with a cold smile,""That dancer must be very beautiful, right?”She didn't notice that her current expression had already surpassed that of a maid treating her master.
Jing Yu naturally didn't see it, or else he would definitely be amazed that the cute Little Qing 'er had become a mature sister.
"Beautiful…Hmm, it should be beautiful, right? Perhaps it was even more special because her hair was white.”In Jing Yu's mind, the figure of a woman in a blue dress appeared. It was a little blurry, and he couldn't see his face clearly…It had been more than 60 years since he entered the replacement space.
Qing 'er looked at his expression as if he was immersed in some kind of memory. She looked at his eyes that were filled with vicissitudes of life and could not help but be stunned. Thinking about it carefully, the young master had clearly grown up by her side. How could he have seen that woman before? Then, where did he hear about that woman? What was the explanation for this nostalgic expression?
It wasn't that Qinger didn't know how mysterious her Young Master was. For example, he did not know where he got these martial arts from. At least, the Xiang family that she knew did not have them. He didn't practice much himself, but he was many times better than her. There was also a lot of knowledge that he could comprehend without a teacher. It could be said that she had learned many things from Jing Yu.
"Right, Young Master, that day you said that you wanted to tell me on the way…is that the only thing?”Seizing the world was too important. Qinger would not easily say it to avoid falling into the ears of others.
"There are some other things. I'll let you know when I see them.”Jing Yu smiled and drove the carriage into the capital of Yan Country.
Qinger thought to herself that it was indeed true. She was looking forward to what those secrets were.
