Chapter 1043 This damn sense of familiarity!
Chapter 1043 This damn sense of familiarity!
The shouts woke up everyone who was fast asleep in the camp.
At this moment, Lu Qingqing and Qin Lang had already left the tent with their weapons.
The two quickly approached the location of the night watch soldiers.
When I arrived, I ran right into a group of people running towards me.
The torches lit under the shed illuminated the surrounding area.
"Young Master Lu, what are you doing here?"
Shi Yingguang recognized Lu Qingqing and exclaimed in surprise.
But soon he realized something was wrong.
"Zhen Xiaoren has sent men to hunt us down. You'd better hide in the crowd and don't show your face!"
Before the water recedes, hide yourself well!
As he spoke, he was about to lead his men to continue running forward.
The soldiers on night watch were momentarily stunned when they realized they knew each other, and did not step forward to stop them.
At that moment, Bai Song ran over.
"Qingqing, what happened?"
Just as Lu Qingqing was about to explain, the pursuers arrived from behind.
Zhen Wu recognized Lu Qingqing at a glance and was overjoyed.
The adults were just lamenting to him that the kid who kidnapped him that day might have drowned in the flood.
That kid helped Shi Yingguang and his gang, causing him to lose so many brothers and even slashing his neck.
These events made Zhen Xiaoren hate Lu Qingqing.
Thinking of this, Zhen Wu pointed at Lu Qingqing and said:
"Brothers, don't let that guy standing under the shed get away either, grab them all and bring them back!"
The pursuing soldiers agreed and a small squad rushed towards Lu Qingqing's direction.
Seeing this, Bai Song cursed and grabbed his weapon.
"Damn it, this is a complete disaster!"
"Brothers, grab your weapons and charge!"
At a command, the two sides clashed.
Shi Yingguang, who had originally run away, heard the sounds of fighting and assumed that Lu Qingqing was fighting with the pursuers to help them.
He immediately called out to the people around him and turned back to help.
The scene quickly descended into chaos.
After injuring the pursuers, Lu Qingqing slipped into the night.
Before long, they saw the brightly lit camp ahead.
Good grief, I was originally thinking about how to find that guy Zhen Xiaoren.
Well, that's exactly what happened; he's made himself a third wheel in the dark.
Lu Qingqing put away the blood-stained longsword in her hand, took out a dagger, and quickly approached the camp.
Right now, Zhen Xiaoren is sitting on that exquisitely carved huanghuali armchair, enjoying a little wine.
I had just taken a small sip when I heard the sound of a tent flap being torn from behind.
Turning my head, I saw a familiar figure slip in.
"Help! Someone, come quick! Save us..."
Before I could even utter the word 'fate,' I felt a chill on my neck.
That familiar dagger was pressed against his neck again.
Zhen Xiaoren was on the verge of tears. How could this person appear and disappear so mysteriously!
Also, didn't he fail to catch up? He should have already died in the flood!
How did they survive? And how did they sneak into his camp?
A series of questions popped into his mind, but they were all swept away by the stinging pain in his neck.
"Hero, spare my life! I was wrong!"
I'll agree to anything you say, but please spare my life!
My family has had only one son for three generations, and I am the only child.
My family is counting on me to carry on the family line!
As they were speaking, the soldiers on duty outside the tent rushed in.
Upon seeing their adult being held hostage, they nervously surrounded the person holding the hostage.
Seeing that the man was about to continue rambling, Lu Qingqing shoved her knee into his groin, and a familiar scream rang out.
"Shut up and get your men back right now!"
I need to see Zhen Wu return with his men within fifteen minutes.
Otherwise, I'll make sure you never have a family line again!
Zhen Xiaoren was in so much pain that he couldn't straighten up, but he dared not disobey the evil god's words and hurriedly gave the order.
"Quickly, go and tell Zhen Wu to bring his men back! Stop the fighting!"
The soldiers inside the tent acknowledged and hurriedly ran out.
Not long after, a large number of footsteps could be heard outside the camp.
Zhen Wu ran in carrying a knife and saw a familiar scene.
His lips twitched uncontrollably.
What sins have my parents committed that this kid always manages to catch them?
Well, the adults are probably in for a world of trouble this time!
When Lu Qingqing saw him return, she wrapped her arms tightly around Zhen Xiaoren's neck and slowly backed away with him.
Seeing that Zhen Wu and the others were about to follow, he shot them a glare.
"Don't follow me, you know me."
If you anger me, I'll just kill him with one stab!
Zhen Xiaoren sensed the murderous intent in her words and was so frightened that he waved his hands repeatedly.
"Stop right there, don't follow me!"
This damn sense of familiarity!
Zhen Wu stopped, somewhat speechless, and raised his hand to stop the soldiers around him who wanted to follow.
As soon as Lu Qingqing took the hostage and walked out, Bai Song and his men chased after them.
Upon seeing this, he rushed forward to protect Lu Qingqing.
Two soldiers took Zhen Xiaoren from Lu Qingqing and held his arms tightly on either side.
After Lu Qingqing had some free time, she looked at Zhen Wu.
"Your family members can stay at my place for a while."
I will return you to your homes when the floodwaters recede.
Oh, and remember to bring over the meals he needs these days.
If we forget any meal, you adults will go hungry!
Zhen Xiaoren knew that Lu Qingqing was not as upright and honest as Shi Yingguang.
Fearing that Zhen Wuzhen might forget to deliver the food and that she would go hungry, she quickly reminded him.
"Zhen Wu, don't forget to bring me food."
Oh, and take that tent down too, bring it over here and install it for me!
Zhen Wu's lips twitched, and he coldly agreed.
As expected of his master, even at a time like this, he still finds time to enjoy himself!
Once Lu Qingqing saw that things were settled, she immediately told someone to take Zhen Xiaoren back.
On the way, she asked Bai Song about the casualties that night.
Fortunately, everyone in the team was used to fighting.
In addition, the battle ended quickly, with only a few people in the team suffering minor cuts.
By now, Old Man Zhuang and Sun Yue had already treated the wound.
When the group returned, Shi Yingguang and the others were busy treating their wounds.
Lu Qingqing went forward to take a look and found that there were many injured people.
When Shi Yingguang saw that she had brought Zhen Xiaoren back again, he bowed deeply to her.
"Brother Lu, I am very grateful to you for saving my life."
If I am ever asked to do anything in the future, I will do my utmost to fulfill it!
Judge Zhang, despite his injuries, stood up and thanked Lu Qingqing.
Beside him, Wu Tongzhi was already unconscious due to his severe injuries.
Lu Qingqing went back to get the medicine for her injuries and returned to give it to Shi Yingguang.
Shi Yingguang expressed his gratitude once again, which goes without saying.
At this moment, Zhang Tongpan and others discovered Zhen Xiaoren, who was being held captive at the back.
Immediately, those whose relatives had been killed rushed forward and began punching and kicking him.
Zhen Xiaoren was beaten and screamed in agony.
At this point, Wu Tongzhi's eldest son beat him up, but he was still not satisfied.
He drew the large sword from the waist of the guard beside him and was about to rush forward to kill the man.
