Back and forth: I brought supplies to help the impoverished prince
Chapter 4 Bandits Attack
When the sun was not so scorching, the two had eaten and slept well, and set off again.
"Sister, do you feel something is wrong?" On the way into the woods, the two rode their horses much faster than before.
Wen Jiu paid attention to his surroundings and suddenly asked softly.
Qiao Shinian turned around and saw that they were now walking on a road in the woods. It was quiet around and there was no one around. The tall trees blocked most of the sunlight and there were not many bushes. The surroundings were very quiet. She felt that this would be a perfect place for a haunted place at night.
During the day, this is a great way to avoid the sun in summer. Due to the boredom along the way, Qiao Shinian has been urging Wen Jiu to memorize multiplication formulas and also taught him some modern scientific knowledge.
"No, what's the matter?" Qiao Shinian looked around again with curiosity.
Suddenly, Wen Jiu squeezed the horse's belly hard.
The horse immediately started running. Qiao Shinian screamed and hugged Wen Jiu's waist tightly, scolding him loudly: "What are you doing!"
"Something's wrong, we have to leave quickly!" Wen Jiu replied.
Just as Qiao Shinian was panicking, she felt as if she was flying up, then turned around in a few seconds and fell heavily to the ground.
"Ah~!" She rubbed her waist and stood up after a long while. The scolding words were swallowed back into her stomach when she saw Wen Jiu lying on the ground: "Are you okay? I told you not to ride too fast, it's easy to flip over."
"Hand over all the money you have!" A rough, low voice came from behind a tree.
Qiao Shinian's attempt to pull Wen Jiu's hand suddenly stopped. She turned her head to look in the direction where the voice came from, and saw several men in coarse cloth shirts coming out of the bushes nearby.
"You! You are... bandits!" She suddenly remembered that when she was staying at the inn two days ago, she heard the waiter say that there were bandits ahead and many people had been robbed.
"Oh, she's still a pretty girl!" One of them looked at Qiao Shinian and swallowed, and the big knife in his hand fell slightly.
"It's just a kid and a pretty woman, come out, this trip is going to be a big win!"
Qiao Shinian watched three or four people walk out from the low earth slope, and she was trembling with fear.
She knew that the ordinary and common life she felt was what many people at the bottom of society desired but could not reach. She had a happy family and received enough love from both her father and mother.
I have the best friends, the best secret crush, I go to a good university, I have enough living expenses, and everything is going smoothly for me.
She had underestimated the dangers of ancient times. The social order she had lived in for more than 20 years was very good. If something happened, she just had to shout and passers-by would come to help, or they would pick up the phone and call the police.
No one dared to rob with a knife in broad daylight. When she and Wen Jiu had to flee on foot, it was Wen Jiu who mostly provided her with food and drink. Also, they were dressed in rags and almost lived on begging, so no one would target them.
"You, just take the money and leave! I'll give you all the money." Qiao Shinian threw out a small bag in his sleeve.
The mouth of the bag loosened and several thumb-sized silver coins rolled out.
Wen Jiu quietly opened his eyes and glanced at Qiao Shinian who was standing in front of him. He was glad that she didn't say anything stupid like "I'm going to report you to the police". In the past few days, he has already gained some basic knowledge of the world she lives in.
"Hahaha! The young lady is very sensible, but you have to put all the silver in your pocket, so that we can look for it slowly!" The man who led the group spoke the last few words slowly and with deep meaning.
Qiao Shinian turned her head and glanced at Wen Jiu, who still had his eyes closed. She felt panic rising in her heart. The last time someone molested her, it was Wen Jiu who knocked that person down.
Now, it’s useless for Wen Jiu to wake up. There are seven people in front of him, and they are holding knives.
As if he had thought of what he was about to face, Qiao Shinian covered his face and cried bitterly: "Why can't you just take the money and leave? Do you think you are great by abusing women? Ah~!"
The burly man who led the group pulled away Qiao Shinian's hands that were covering her face and laughed sarcastically: "The sound is nice, the sex bed must be nice too. Hahaha, I'll go first, you guys hold her down!"
"Let me go, you bastard! Bah! Coward who dares not go to the battlefield! You only dare to force yourself on women!" Qiao Shinian was pulled into the bushes nearby. Her struggle caused the branches and leaves to shake, and her screams and wails were heard in the silent woods.
Wen Jiu slowly opened his eyes and sat up. He looked at the bushes shaking violently not far away. He hesitated again, wondering whether he should save Qiao Shinian.
He definitely couldn't defeat them, and maybe if he tried to save her, he would die.
"Ah! Help!"
"Let me go, asshole!"
As the sound of clothes tearing reached Wen Jiu's ears, he abandoned everything the old man had taught him and gave up observing, thinking, and thinking about how to deal with the situation.
"Ah~!" A man's scream echoed throughout the forest.
Qiao Shinian covered her clothes and stared blankly at the man riding on her, holding his neck and slowly falling down. Something warm sprayed on her face, and the man's pants were already at his ankles, revealing something disgusting unique to men.
Time seemed to stand still for a few seconds in Qiao Shinian's world, and then there was another scream, and he covered his waist in pain.
The hands that imprisoned Qiao Shinian disappeared, and she was free.
The leader of the group has fallen, and another person has been seriously injured.
However, no matter how strong Wen Jiu was, he was less than nine years old and his height only reached Qiao Shinian's chest.
Soon, under Qiao Shinian's dazed gaze, he was slashed on the shoulder and stabbed in the stomach.
Three bandits fell, but Wen Jiu curled up on the ground in pain, holding his stomach.
"Run, run." Wen Jiu's voice was very soft, the pain made him almost unable to make a sound.
He wanted to say to the frightened Qiao Shinian, run now.
"No! He's just a child, you can't kill him." Qiao Shinian finally took action. She crawled towards Wen Jiu without caring that her pants were torn off.
"No, no, no."
Qiao Shinian shook her head and looked at Wen Jiu who was almost closing his eyes. There were so many unexpected events that she didn't know how to react for a moment.
The bloody scene in front of her should have made her scream in fear, but the thought of this child, who had depended on her for almost half a year, dying in front of her made her feel even more devastated.
At this moment, the thorn in her heart after being sold disappeared, and the estrangement towards Wen Jiu also completely disappeared. In her eyes, Wen Jiu was just dying to save her.
'call out! ’
A crisp sound of breaking through the air reached Qiao Shinian's ears, and a bandit in front of him fell down.
Immediately afterwards, there were several more sounds of breaking through the air.
The bandits who had already started to flee fell one after another.
All of this happened very slowly in Qiao Shinian's eyes, and the sounds around him seemed to have disappeared a lot.
