Chapter 74 - Murderers and HeightsBut at least he had spoken the truth, would Wei Yuanwei use other people"s lives to threaten the village chief?
Obviously, this was not Wei Yuanwei"s way of doing things.
It should be the person who helped Wei Yuanwei!
Could Wei Yuanwei be with that person right now?
Yun Xie"s cold expression became even more solemn: "Then do you want to die first or die after?"
The village chief who was lying on the ground was startled, his face was filled with fear, and Xuan Li raised the blade in his hand.
Yun Xie"s gaze moved further away as he looked at the orderly village in front of him and the cow that was trapped in the cowshed.
The village chief knew that the blade at the back of his neck was gone, but he did not know what Yun Xie was trying to do!
"Two!"
"I"ll say, I"ll say!" Seeing the way Xuan Li held the blade, the village chief immediately understood what was going on.
The blade in Xuan Li"s hand that was about to swing down suddenly stopped.
This morning, before dawn, my family"s dogs suddenly started barking wildly. I came out to take a look and saw several men in black carrying two large sacks into the village. At first, I didn"t know what was inside the sacks, but then these men in black told me to find a safe place to hide them, and tied them up with my family. The village chief said in fear, his eyes full of pleading and fear.
"Young master, I only know this much. My family is still in those people"s hands!"
"Where is the burrow?" Yun Xie asked coldly.
Wei Yuanwei was placed on a gunny sack? Could it be that Wei Yuanwei was taken away by someone, and not just because she escaped by herself?
But what about the earrings her mother had left her?
Wei Yuanwei had always kept it in her jewelry box, and had never seen her wearing it. Could it be that when she got kidnapped, she would have the time to take away the earring her mother had given her?
"Right, under an earthen wall at the back of the village!" The village head immediately said, "Young master, I beg of you, you must save my family!" The Village Chief spoke with tears in his eyes. He looked like he had been forced into a corner, cold sweat trickling down his face.
Xuan Li looked at it, the tip of his foot tapped the ground, and he flew towards the back of the village, while Yun Xie gently pulled the reins of the horse, the horse extended its four hooves and chased after Xuan Li.
Without waiting for Xuan Li to arrive, the people of Red Guards started to fight with the people dressed in ordinary village clothes.
From their skill, they didn"t look like farmers who lived off cattle, but more like well-trained killers.
Red Guards"s Qing Gong was relatively high, but his martial arts were relatively weaker.
Although these people could not injure Red Guards, he could not stop these a.s.sa.s.sins.
Xuan Li pulled out his sword and joined the battle.
After a few seconds, the a.s.sa.s.sins all fell to the ground.
Yun Xie dismounted and walked into the wall. He discovered that the ground was smeared with cow dung, to prevent others from detecting his scent. It was obvious that the footprints and marks from before had been meticulously cleaned.
The light in Yun Xie"s eyes dimmed as he bent down and jumped into the hole.
The cave was very large, and all the food and firewood in the village were stored here.
After Yun Xie walked a few steps, he saw a few black clothed men carrying some stuff, seeing Yun Xie coming over, they all unsheathed their swords and blades.
A b.l.o.o.d.y wind blew at the cave, and the shadows of swords could be seen below the cave, especially when there was not enough light.
When Xuan Li came down, he had already subdued the last black-clothed man.
These men in black were clearly not professional killers, otherwise they would have bitten themselves to death if they failed the mission.
Xuan Li immediately walked forward and lit up the fire piston on his body, and the situation in the cave immediately became clear.
Xuan Li and Red Guards took off the veils on their faces one by one, until the last person.
Yun Xie instantly recognized him, he was Princess Xi Ya"s bodyguard and even Xuan Li recognized him, they had fought before.
How could this be related to the Princess Xi Ya? Could it be that Wei Yuanwei was really robbed, and did not escape by herself?
Yun Xie"s eyes suddenly widened as he looked at the mountain of gunny sacks and firewood in front of him. He said in a low voice, "Search!"
Immediately, Xuan Li and Red Guards searched the underground cave.
He opened the sacks one by one and saw that they were filled with firewood.
"Your Highness!" Xuan Li had just opened a gunny sack and a ball of black hair appeared. Following that, countless rice grains spread out from the sack and Xuan Li could not help but exclaim.
He then opened the sack and poured out the rice inside!
Wei Yuanwei then completely revealed herself from the gunny sack, her clothes, and hair all stained with rice!
"Princess …" Xuan Li called out a few times, he extended his hand to Wei Yuanwei"s neck, and discovered that his pulse was weak but stable, and immediately knew that Wei Yuanwei was being drugged.
When Yun Xie saw Wei Yuanwei fall out from the sack full of rice, his pupils fiercely shrank.
When he saw the pair of earrings that Wei Yuanwei was wearing, Yun Xie immediately understood that Wei Yuanwei had really been robbed by someone. At the time of the robbery, Wei Yuanwei coincidentally took out the earrings that she had kept in her jewelry box to wear, but he mistakenly thought that Wei Yuanwei had escaped!
"Iris …" Yun Xie carried the unconscious Wei Yuanwei up. Looking at her dirty face, she started to blame himself.
She was robbed, but he thought she had run away!
He even suspected that she had betrayed him and ran away with someone else!
He had already thought of how he would deal with her when he found her, but the heavens were playing such a joke on him.
Following that, the other Red Guards found Yin Sheng and the village chief"s family in other jute bags.
He had originally thought that the Princess Xi Ya would settle down a little by marrying into the Duke Palace, at least, nothing bad would happen from the day of the wedding. However, he didn"t think that the Princess Xi Ya would actually send someone to abduct Wei Yuanwei while he was still in his bridal room.
With Princess Xi Ya"s character, she definitely wanted to sell Wei Yuanwei in a place filled with smoke or dust, or send him to Western Ling State as a slave.
A woman"s heart could actually hate poison to this extent!
No wonder the Princess Xi Ya didn"t let him leave on their wedding night!
At this moment, Yun Xie"s deep understanding of the eyes was extremely terrifying, it was as if a flood was roaring and roaring at the bottom of his eyes!
The Princess Xi Ya would not have such meticulous thoughts. She would not be able to take away the people under her watch.
Then the matter was very clear, Princess Xi Ya definitely had Zhong Lixian"s help behind his back!
Yun Xie clenched his fists tightly, and immediately picked up Wei Yuanwei who was lying on the ground.
When Yun Xie gently placed Wei Yuanwei on the horse, a dozen or so arrows suddenly came flying from all directions.
