Good luck every time

Li Ruyi has already broken through this layer of window paper.

The shopkeeper's heart sank and he turned around and ran to the back.

Seeing him running out, the escort leader realized that this man was definitely guilty of a crime, and his customer was almost caught by someone around him.

His expression suddenly turned ugly and he secretly winked at the people around him.

Before, Li Er asked him to help surround the inn, and he only helped perfunctorily due to his status.

It was not until this moment that he began to cooperate sincerely.

Li Ruyi took in his expression and finally felt relieved.

These bodyguards are not her own people, so it is not easy for her to command them. If she wants to really reach the level of being like a fish in water, she needs to hone her skills together.

This is also the reason why she knew what these people were thinking but never pointed it out.

Because she knew very well that knowing that the people in the inn were hostile to her customers was not a reason for a bodyguard to kill people or set fire to something.

At most, you just need to be more careful and cautious.

The escort leader rushed in with weapons in hand, trying to stop the shopkeeper before he ran out.

However, Li Ershi and Li Ruyi did not move at all. They just watched the shopkeeper run to the back door.

The next moment, the back door opened again.

The escort leader frowned, thinking that he might not be able to catch the person.

However, the cold wind blew into the room, and the shopkeeper who was blocking the door suddenly stopped and stood there in a daze.

In just a moment of delay, the leader of the escort rushed behind the shopkeeper.

He struck the shopkeeper on the neck, trying to knock him unconscious, but just as he raised his hands, a pair of white hands were faster than his.

The hand grabbed the shopkeeper's collar from behind and flipped him over. At the same time, he raised his foot and kicked the shopkeeper's knee, making him kneel on the ground.

The palm knife followed immediately, and the shopkeeper didn't even have time to react. He just felt his vision rolling back and forth, and finally his eyes turned white, and he lost consciousness.

The escort leader looked up and saw Xiaoman rushing over from outside, with a few people following him.

The coolies that Xiaoman had temporarily captured were a little nervous. They nervously carried up a group of people who had been knocked unconscious.

When the door was lowered, the bandits lay down in a row. Unexpectedly, there were quite a few of them.

Only then did Li Er pull the waiter up again, pinching his neck and asking him to go and identify the person.

After he had identified everyone, Li Er picked out two people of relatively high status and took them over for interrogation.

The escort leader is no fool and has already sorted out the cause and effect.

This inn is a black shop run by bandits!

The shopkeeper wants to capture Li Ruyi and Xiaoman.

As the leader of the darts, his mistakes were obvious.

In fact, Li Ruyi's original plan was for Li Er and Lao San to interrogate the waiter together, and she would delay the shopkeeper. After Li Er finished the interrogation, she could come over with Xiaoman to capture the rest of the people.

But Li Er wanted to give Xiaoman a chance to practice.

Although Li Ruyi was worried, there was nothing he could do.

An eagle that cannot spread its wings is doomed to die.

Since there was no way to let Xiaoman live in an isolated greenhouse forever, Li Ruyi had to let her go out and fly early.

However, it's good to act separately like this.

Xiaoman is agile, has great martial arts skills, and good hearing, making him the perfect candidate for nighttime sneak attacks!

As soon as the news from Li Er came in, she arrested everyone immediately.

There are not so many martial arts masters. The people in the inn are just ruthless people who know some boxing and kicking. Xiaoman has no chance of fighting when he is attacked by surprise.

Li Ruyi was still sitting there. When Li Er left, he had already taken off his clothes and put them on her shoulders.

Xiaoman happily sat in the seat where the shopkeeper had just sat, and shook her head to ask Li Ruyi for a reward.

Li Ruyi took the opportunity to praise her.

"The third brother is really getting more and more powerful!"

After perfunctorily speaking, Li Ruyi turned to look at the escort leader.

"sit!"

She politely asked the escort leader to sit down. The escort leader didn't see her lose her temper and felt a little uneasy. He stared at Li Ruyi's face and slowly sat down.

Li Ruyi then said.

"It happened suddenly. I just came here to stay in the hotel. I never thought these people would arrest me and my sister."

The escort leader had a very serious expression on his face, and instantly analyzed Li Ruyi's words twice in his mind.

"It was my negligence. I should have arranged for someone to check the room before you entered and let you in only if it was safe!"

Li Ruyi looked at the escort leader's expression and was very satisfied with his current attitude, which was much cuter than his previous arrogant look.

"Everyone is careless. Our journey will not be peaceful, and we can't just rely on you for protection."

The escort leader took a deep breath and didn't dare to exhale for a long time.

What Li Ruyi said was equivalent to saying, 'Your ability is just so-so, I can't entrust my life to you.'

Under normal circumstances he would have exploded, but now, he was powerless to refute.

"I will try my best!"

Li Ruyi seemed easy to talk to and nodded.

"Ok!"

Her nonchalant attitude hurt the escort leader even more, but he had no way to make up for it now. He could only look at the person lying on the ground and ask Li Ruyi.

"Boss, what should we do with these people?"

Li Ruyi followed his gaze, glanced at the person on the ground, and slightly curled the corners of her mouth.

"These people are all bandits. I would just kill them all and it would be like getting rid of harm to the people!"

The escort leader had traveled all over the country and had killed people before. Although he did not completely agree with this, he just frowned slightly and did not object.

Li Ruyi then continued.

"To be honest, there are too many people who don't want me to come back this time. Our route has been known to others. These people are just outposts with average strength, but once the signal is sounded, the road ahead will be even more difficult!"

The escort leader's brows relaxed instantly and he nodded in realization.

"Boss, we are now in the same boat, so I have something to ask you, but I don't know if it's appropriate or not."

The escort leader was much more serious and even knew to lay the groundwork before asking, letting Li Ruyi know that his question had no malicious intent.

"go ahead!"

"I want to ask, how did you provoke these enemies, and who are they?"

"How did our route become known? Is there a convenient place to change the route? Or is it too late for us to go back and take another route?"

This guy had a lot of questions. Maybe he was worried that Li Ruyi would get angry and embarrassed and he wouldn't be able to ask anything!

At this moment, he was staring at Li Ruyi's expression carefully. If Li Ruyi showed any sign of trouble, he would shut up at any time.

"Oh! This is not too presumptuous. I have a good relationship with the eldest daughter of the Qin family in the capital city, who is also the future wife of the eldest grandson of the Zhao family, so we are planning to form a caravan together."

"The relationships between the noble families are complicated, and there are many people who don't want our caravan to be established."

After saying that, Li Ruyi changed the subject and smiled bitterly.

"These people are of high status. The only advantage is that the closer we get to the city, the fewer people there are who know martial arts. Even in this inn run by bandits, we still have a chance to rest."

When talking about Qin Huanzhang, the escort leader fell silent.

The well-known and famous families in the capital city are always engaged in intrigue and struggle for interests.

There shouldn't be too many cases of people trying to plot against each other and then seek their own death. Before setting off, the escort leader heard Li Ruyi say that the journey would be difficult, so he wanted to find someone capable.

But he didn't expect that the journey would be so difficult.

It’s only been a few days since we set off!

How far is this from the capital city...

However, the escort agency has accepted the mission and it is too late to regret now.

Moreover, the money Li Ruyi gave him was not a small amount. Even if he was willing to go back, his subordinates might not be willing to do so. In this case, he might as well put aside all distractions and cooperate with Li Ruyi.

"Then I wonder what the master's plan is?"

This question was very general. Li Ruyi happened to have time and wanted to have a good chat with him. If everyone could reach an agreement, the road ahead would be easier!

“You can’t change the route, you can only keep going!”

These escorts had walked this route before, so they were more familiar with it. Li Ruyi had a map in her hand, and there were enemies on all sides and in front of her, and she was not in a hurry...

It is better to move forward step by step and clear away the obstacles along the way bit by bit.

"As for the people here, I would also like to ask if the escort leader has any intention of getting rid of this evil for the people. If he has such a chivalrous heart, he can go with me to their lair and wipe them out in one fell swoop!"

The escort leader's eyes widened instantly and he looked at Li Ruyi in disbelief.

There was only one thought in my mind.

What nonsense is this man talking about?

"I'm afraid this is inappropriate. Bandits also have their own rules. Once you take action, you will offend all the bandits around you. This..."

The escort leader implied that he thought Li Ruyi was meddling too much.

She is a businessman, why would she do this when she can get rid of the disaster by spending some money! ?

Li Ruyi shook his head.

"No, I will eat anything but not lose. Who knows who these bandits around the city belong to? If you dare to touch me, you'd better be prepared to have your hands chopped off."

Escort leader: ...

After saying that, Li Ruyi immediately said.

"Besides, these bandits must be living well. Let's destroy their den and take their assets. It's not easy for the brothers who followed me here. If we can save more money, we won't have to tie our lives to our belts in the future. Why not do it?"

The escort leader couldn't say anything to object.

Why did he become a bodyguard? Could it be for his hobby?

Of course, for life.

If he could save money and buy some land, he would prefer to be a small landlord rather than live in the open and worry about his future.

Seeing him silent, Li Ruyi's mouth curled up slightly.

After a while, a heart-wrenching scream was heard from the backyard.

The escort leader's face changed, but he immediately reacted and his body slowly relaxed.

This night is destined to be a sleepless night.

These bandits were not tough men. After being tortured, they said everything they should and shouldn't have said.

Li Er took the things these people gave him and showed them to Li Ruyi.

The map shows the location of the village and the secret passage clearly.

The number of people inside and how they kept watch were all recorded.

They are reviewed separately and the information of several people is verified comprehensively, so there won't be too many fish slipping through the net.

Li Ruyi smiled brightly instantly.

Before leaving the city, a sum of money had already been delivered to my door.

She winked at the escort leader, who was still a little uneasy, but still went to explain the situation to his escorts.

Li Ruyi then went back to put on her clothes.

During this period, Li Er called Xiaoman to go together to clean up the remaining things at the inn.

Xiaoman was a little nervous.

After all, conscious killing requires a very strong psychological quality. Xiaoman had been living in Sanjia Village before, and the most blood he had seen was the blood from slaughtering pigs and making blood sausages during weddings and funerals.

She knew that sooner or later she would have to kill someone.

But when that day really came, she felt uncomfortable as if something was blocking her heart.

She already has a sense of right and wrong.

Moreover, she has been 'Mr. Xiaoman' for several years, and she always remembers that only a virtuous person can be a teacher.

The bodyguards carried the unconscious people to the backyard, and Li Ershi walked back with Xiaoman holding a torch.

Li Ershi has watched this little sister grow up, and he can notice even the slightest change in her emotions.

The happy and lively little girl in the past now follows him silently, like a shadow that has lost its self.

Li Er sighed, stopped, turned around and waited for Xiaoman to catch up.

The yard was quiet, with only the cold winter wind blowing.

"Old Third, are you scared?"

Xiaoman heard Li Er's voice and looked up at him.

The light from the torch cast a layer of warm glow on Li Ershi.

Xiaoman shook her head.

From the first day she started practicing martial arts, she knew that she would kill someone in the future.

She is not afraid!

She just didn't want to take someone else's life.

Li Ershi watched her lower her eyes and understood what was bothering her.

"These people are not human beings, they are just animals in human skin. Killing them is no different from killing pigs and dogs."

Xiaoman nodded, not knowing whether she heard it or not.

Li Ershi was not good at reasoning or comforting people, so he could only stand with Xiaoman in the cold wind for a while.

Xiaoman took a deep breath and was ready after a moment.

"Brother, let's go!"

Xiaoman took a step forward, and when she took this step and landed on the ground, her life was divided into two parts, one was ordinary, and the other was the world of martial arts.

Li Ruyi changed her clothes and waited for a while before Li Ershi came back with Xiaoman.

Xiaoman looked very unhappy. The smell of blood made her feel nauseous. She felt uncomfortable both in her heart and stomach.

After waiting for a while, the escort leader asked someone to bring the things into the inn.

Li Ruyi arranged a clever person to be the shopkeeper.

Since this place was ownerless, she didn't mind taking it over.

Of course, she would have to wait until she had dealt with the bandits behind her.

Just after the hour of Chou, Li Ruyi led his men up the mountain along the small path.

This road is often walked by people. It is hidden, but also very smooth because it has been trampled by people.

She and Li Er were the first to enter the village in the mountains.

There are not many bandits here. After all, it is close to the city. Even if they have a strong background, they cannot be too arrogant.

The number of people Li Ruyi brought was even greater than the number of people in the village.

With the inside information, everything in this village is no longer a secret.

As soon as the day broke, the village was cleared out by Li Ruyi and his men.

Some people lost their lives in their sleep, while others tried to resist and were killed by Li Ruyi.

Except for a few important leaders who were left behind, none of the remaining minions were spared.
