The man in black who was in the lead stood on top and looked down, his eyes full of disappointment.
"I thought everyone in the Yu family had special abilities. I finally met one, but it turns out he's not very skilled in martial arts, just a bit smart..."
"That's not right, Boss! I don't think this guy can die. When I fought him in close combat before, the sword hit him several times, but no blood came out."
Immediately, several more people stood up and said, "Boss! I shot him several times, and except for some bleeding on his legs and arms, there was no blood coming out of his chest."
"Yes! I think he was just pushed down by the huge force, not shot down."
"He has the correspondence between us and the Qin family. If he delivers it to that killer, I'm afraid our efforts will be in vain!"
The men's eyes darted around, and suddenly someone stood up from behind them, "Boss! I have a plan!"
The leader beckoned to him, and the man immediately came forward and whispered a few words in his ear.
When Yu Shi woke up from the severe pain, he found himself falling down a hillside.
He looked at himself tiredly, his right leg bleeding, his eyes full of despair!
How could he climb up such a high hill with his severely injured right leg?
"Let's go! Let's go over there and take a look."
"The boss said that if he's alive, I want to see him. If he's dead, I want to see his body."
"Yes! Hurry up and search carefully. I remember that person fell in this direction. Hurry and search!"
Yu Shi could clearly feel those people right above his head. He held his breath and covered his mouth tightly to prevent himself from making any sound.
But somehow, the people above seemed to have heard the noise here.
They shouted towards this side: "What's going on?"
People came over here one after another. Yu Shi held his breath and held the dagger tightly in his hand. Suddenly, he heard a rustling sound coming from the side!
Yu Shi held his breath and could clearly hear the sound of his own heartbeat in his ears, as loud as a drum. Just when the man turned around, he stabbed him with the dagger!
As a result, the person opposite seemed to be dodging, or seemed to be frightened and fell down, sitting directly on the ground.
Yu Shi looked closely and found that the person who came was actually a woman.
The woman had a pretty face, and her eyes were full of fear when she looked at her.
"Go look over there, I think I saw someone running over there."
Just as Yu Shi was about to make a move, the woman, suppressing her memories, suddenly rushed over and covered his mouth, putting one hand to her lips and making a hushing gesture.
It was the first time that Yu Shi had such close contact with a woman. He could clearly see the eyelashes of this pretty woman blinking, and he could also clearly see his own stunned reflection in the woman's eyes!
"Hurry, that man is running that way, chase him."
"Call everyone over here and bring the person back quickly."
Yu Shi listened to those people running in the other direction, but he still didn't dare to relax until he could no longer hear any sound. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief. The woman in front of him also released her hand that was covering his mouth, leaned against him as if she had lost some strength, and patted her chest gently.
"Oh my god, I was so scared! Those people were holding long swords and looked ferocious. They looked like demons crawling out of hell."
"Luckily, my brother and I grew up in this forest and have some basic martial arts skills. We'll be able to defeat them in no time."
"Come with me now. I'll take you down the mountain to meet up with my brother."
Yu Shi still held the dagger tightly, looking at the woman who suddenly appeared with a vigilant look on his face.
The woman was wearing a maroon dress and her hair was held up high with a wooden hairpin. Although her eyes were not big, they were very smart. From a distance, she seemed somewhat similar to the men in black who were chasing him. However, he was only concerned with escaping for his life in front and did not see whether there was a woman among the men in black behind him.
If this woman was really one of those men in black, why would she save herself like this?
"Who are you? Why are you here? Why? Save me?"
The woman curled her lips, looking helpless. "You really don't know what's good for you. You actually doubted me. If my brother and I hadn't gone up the mountain to chop firewood and happened to see you being chased, do you think we would have cared about you?"
"Besides, those people look ferocious and evil. They are not good people at first glance. They look silly and pitiful when you look at them!"
"Hmph! If I had known you doubted us, I wouldn't have let my brother risk his life to save you. Just stay here quietly. I'm going to reunite with my brother and leave anyway."
After she finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave, looking very angry.
Seeing that the girl left as soon as she said she would, and didn't seem to have any intention of stopping to wait for him, Yu Shi thought about it and felt that he might have been overthinking it. If he missed the brother and sister, he was afraid that he would not be able to hold on until he met the others.
And those men in black will come back immediately when they find out they are chasing the wrong person.
He had to leave here quickly, so he picked up a wooden stick, stood up with difficulty, and staggered to follow.
The girl in front seemed very angry and showed no intention of slowing down her pace.
However, the more the girl ignored him, the more at ease Yu Shi felt.
He endured the pain in his legs and followed the girl. After walking for about an hour, they finally arrived at a relatively wide area at the foot of the mountain. There stood a tall man in gray linen clothes with two bundles of firewood at his feet.
Yu Shi looked at the man's back and felt that he looked familiar. When the man turned around, he looked quite handsome. He had never seen such a handsome man before...
"Little sister!"
The man waved happily towards them, and the girl jumped over and ran over, neither of them paying attention to Yu Shi behind them.
Finally, Yu Shi couldn't help but stepped forward and bowed, "Thank you both for your help. I was being hunted and scared, so I became suspicious of everyone. I hope you won't be angry. I'd like to know how to address you two benefactors."
The girl snorted playfully, "You're kind enough to say you have a conscience, but I can't easily tell you a girl's name. I'm the seventeenth child in my family, so you can just call me Seventeenth."
Yu Shi was surprised. "Seventeenth Miss, you have a lot of family members, but where is this brother?"
The man said coldly: "Fifteen!"
Yu Shi thought that this family’s naming was a bit sloppy.
However, he still bowed respectfully to the two of them, "Thank you, Miss Seventeen and Brother Fifteen, for saving my life!"
"I wonder where they live?"
"Once I am free, I will have someone prepare a generous gift for you to repay me."
