Good luck every time

The person in charge did not make any extra arrangements and left with a smile.

The pleasure boat slowly sailed away.

Ding Bai is going to meet Zou Kong.

He lost interest when he learned that Zou Kong was a thief, but now that the matter of the water bandits is known, it is time to deal with Zou Kong!

At the same time he thought of Li Ruyi.

Li Ruyi is also a talent, and he is not going to let him go.

Since the other party refuses to accept my toast, why not teach her a lesson?

"How's Li Ruyi doing?!"

The steward stepped forward and said with a smile.

"Li Ruyi hasn't come back yet, but I've done what you asked!"

Ding Bai nodded without showing any strange expression.

For people like them, if they want to gain someone's loyalty, they don't need to please that person. They just need to break all of that person's arms and make her completely unable to fly!

And his arrangement was so simple and direct.

Li Jixiang received the news and went to the yard in the back alley to check the newly arrived batch of goods.

She has lived in Jiuchuan Lane for a long time and is very familiar with the place.

When Li Shiba saw that she was about to leave, he quickly brushed off the dust on his body and followed her.

Granny Ding gave the two of them instructions.

"Don't forget your knife!"

Li Jixiang wanted to say no, but seeing that Granny Ding was so serious and persistent, he nodded.

She and Li Shiba both carried knives before going out.

Jiuchuan Lane had become much more lively, and the vendors around saw the two of them and greeted them with smiles.

Everyone in the Jiuchuan Gang was also very respectful to Li Jixiang.

After going through the initial phase of being at a loss, Li Jixiang now understands that if he doesn’t want to cause trouble to others, he has to stay calm.

Li Shiba stood silently beside her, tall and strong like a wall.

In the past, people around him doubted whether he was Li Jixiang’s man. Later, when they heard that they were cousins, they gave up the idea.

But there were suddenly a lot more people who came up to him without thinking.

Li Shiba was even more expressionless, and everyone who approached him was glared away by him.

He is fierce, simple-minded and straightforward, and anyone who wants to please him always fails.

As the journey was not far and there was no need to ride horses or drive carriages, the two men walked to the back alley.

Li Jixiang would talk to Li Shiba in a casual manner.

However, neither of them is a talkative person and they were silent most of the time.

It’s just that we have known each other for too long, so the silence is not awkward.

The scenery on the entire street today was the same as usual, and Li Jixiang didn't think too much about it.

It was not until she bypassed the downtown area and reached the quiet back alley that she suddenly realized something was wrong.

"Brother Eighteen, it seems too quiet here!"

Li Shiba stood behind Li Jixiang, closer to her.

At the moment Li Jixiang finished speaking, four killers suddenly jumped out from the houses on both sides of the alley.

Li Jixiang was shocked. It was the first time in her life that she was assassinated.

She had rehearsed many possibilities in her mind, but she was still a little at a loss when those people rushed towards her.

On the way to Quzhou County, she had seen a dead person.

But at that time she was protected by many people.

But this time she has to face everything by herself.

A hand behind her suddenly grabbed her clothes, scaring her.

But the next moment her sight shifted and she was already behind Li Shiba.

"Run!"

Li Shiba's voice rang in her ears, but was blown far away by the wind.

This sentence was like a switch that awakened Li Jixiang's consciousness, giving her direction instantly.

Neither she nor Li Shiba are the most powerful masters in the world.

When facing someone chasing you, the most important thing is not to kill them, but to save your life.

Li Jixiang trembled slightly until her fingers fell on her knife.

There seemed to be a voice in her heart telling her.

"calm!"

The courtyard where the goods are stored is a hundred feet away from the alley entrance, and the noise of the intense fighting will inevitably attract people.

These people knew this, but still ambushed here, which means that the people in the courtyard have lost the ability to rescue them.

It was obviously unwise to escape into the courtyard past the killer, as there might even be other people lying in ambush there.

If you go backwards...

Li Jixiang turned around and saw two people rushing towards him from behind, the blades in their hands flashing in the sunlight.

In order to interfere with her vision, one of them shone a light towards her eyes. Li Jixiang slightly turned her head to avoid it.

Her evasive action became the opportunity for the man to attack.

However, the knife that had stabbed into her heart did not fall, and Li Jixiang had already taken a bow stance and swung the knife to block it.

She was not good at fighting these, but Granny Ding's teachings had been engraved in her bones, and her muscles reacted faster than her consciousness.

She calmed her mind, held her breath, and her mind was blank, leaving only the most instinctive counterattack.

The sound of knives clashing against each other sounded behind Li Shiba, distracting him for a moment and he turned to look at Li Jixiang.
