Eavesdropping on Fu Bao's inner thoughts, emptying the stored grain and fleeing the famine

"In, in, in the backyard of the county government office," the jailer stammered.

"take me!"

"Yes."

Lian Rongrong led the jailer out of the prison. Huai County was not large, so the internal structure of the county government was not complicated.

After leaving the prison, they went straight to the west courtyard of the county government office. According to the jailer, Li Yuanqi was taken to the north backyard.

"Hurry up!" Lian Rongrong exerted a little force on her hand, and the jailer quickened his pace even more.

Before long, Lian Rongrong led the jailer to the backyard of the county government office. At this time, Li Yuanqi was tied to a wooden stake.

Li Yuanqi remained unconscious, and Lian Rongrong watched from afar, feeling a surge of panic in her heart.

She kicked the jailer away and then leaped towards Li Yuanqi.

At the same time, a figure suddenly appeared in mid-air, moving like a ghost at an extremely fast speed.

He had already blocked Lian Rongrong's way before she even touched Li Yuanqi.

"Get out of my way!" Lian Rongrong roared in fury, and immediately fired an arrow from the short crossbow in her sleeve.

"Is that all you've got?" The "ghostly figure" lightly tapped its left foot, its body instantly flying backward, while Lian Rongrong's short crossbow headed straight for Li Yuanqi's left chest.

Seeing this, Lian Rongrong instinctively wanted to take Li Yuanqi into her spatial storage, but when she tried to use her mind, she found it had no effect.

In a flash, Lian Rongrong had no choice but to pull the trigger of the short crossbow again and shoot down the previous crossbow arrow from another direction.

"Xiaobai, what's going on?" Lian Rongrong's mind stirred slightly.

[I don't know either, but I can feel some force suppressing me. Master, be careful, this person is not simple!]

Lian Rongrong had long realized that the "ghostly figure" in front of her was unusual, and she had originally thought that if she couldn't beat it, she would run away.

But now it seems that there is no other way but to fight head-on.

Lian Rongrong tried to step forward again, but before she could reach Li Yuanqi, the "ghostly figure" reappeared in front of her.

Lian Rongrong was anxious, so her skills became a bit chaotic, but even so, she was still able to fight against the "ghost shadow".

"Interesting. There aren't many women who can master kung fu to this level. Much better than those eleven good-for-nothings."

The words "ghostly figure" gave Lian Rongrong an ominous premonition.

"What did you do to them?" Lian Rongrong asked angrily.

"Nothing much. There's no need to keep useless people around." Ghost's tone was devoid of any warmth.

But Lian Rongrong's anger had reached its peak, because those guards were not only Li Yuanqi's trusted subordinates.

Over the years, they had become like friends, and the sounds of their laughter still echoed in their ears. Yet now, they had all perished at the hands of this devil before them.

How could Lian Rongrong not be angry and hateful? "I'll take your life!" Lian Rongrong shouted, then leaped up and attacked the "ghostly figure".

The "ghost" shook its head: "Your aura is disordered. You were never my match to begin with, so you have even less of a chance now."

The "ghost's" words, though seemingly arrogant, hit the nail on the head. But even Rongrong wanted to save Li Yuanqi.

She had no way out, nor did she intend to. Lian Rongrong turned around and deftly drew the sword from the jailer's waist.

The blade, carrying hatred, swept towards the "ghostly figure." This strike was haphazard, yet it contained all of Lian Rongrong's power.

Even the arrogant "ghost" couldn't help but change its expression.

"That's quite sharp." "Ghost Shadow" dodged to the side, but unexpectedly, Lian Rongrong had a backup plan. The hilt of the knife quickly flipped in Lian Rongrong's hand.

The vertical blade was thrust horizontally, aiming straight for "Ghost Shadow's" neck. This move was incredibly swift; "Ghost Shadow" always managed to dodge it, but a bloody gash was still left on his jaw.

The "ghostly figure" raised his hand to wipe the blood from his chin, and instead of being angry, he laughed. He suddenly spoke:

"You little brat, you're quite something. Stop now, I won't kill you."

"If you become my disciple, I will make you the foremost woman in the world."

"Pah!" Lian Rongrong spat. The number one woman? More like the number one female ghost!

Seeing that Lian Rongrong showed no sign of wavering, "Ghost Shadow" seemed somewhat displeased. He turned to look at Li Yuanqi, who was still unconscious, and seemed to have suddenly realized something.

"You refuse to become my disciple because of this man? That's easy!"

The "ghost" smiled wickedly, "I'll kill him, and then you'll have no more worries!"

[Is this guy crazy?! Is his brain filled with shit?]

Xiao Bai's voice was full of anger, but the "ghostly figure" opposite him had already drawn his sword.

Lian Rongrong sensed the intense killing intent emanating from the "ghostly figure." She drew her knife and charged forward. The moment their blades clashed, terrifying sparks flew.

However, after several rounds, Lian Rongrong was no match for him. "Ghost Shadow" gained the upper hand and then raised his sword to pierce Li Yuanqi's chest.

Just as the "ghostly" longsword pierced the air, Lian Rongrong suddenly rushed over without hesitation.

Just as the longsword was about to pierce Lian Rongrong's chest, a flash of white light appeared, and the longsword shattered into several pieces in an instant.

However, at the same time, Lian Rongrong also felt a huge shock. She felt a sharp pain in her chest and a metallic taste in her throat.

Li Yuanqi seemed to feel the impact as well. He opened his eyes slightly and saw that Lian Rongrong's face was pale and there was blood on the corner of her mouth.

In an instant, Li Yuanqi's eyes were filled with murderous intent.

"You dare to hurt her?" The next second, Li Yuanqi broke free of the ropes with his powerful internal force.

He held Lian Rongrong's weak body with one hand, while drawing the soft sword from his waist with his right hand.

"Whoever harms her shall die!" The soft sword flew out, heading straight for "Ghost Shadow's" face.

But the "ghostly figure" was extremely fast, and with a swift turn, it dodged Li Yuanqi's attack.

What "Ghost Shadow" didn't expect was that the soft sword seemed to have eyes; just as he dodged it, the soft sword attacked from behind.

With the soft sword piercing his chest, "Ghost Shadow's" eyes widened in disbelief. He had never imagined that he would be killed in a single blow.

After "Ghost Shadow" died, everyone in the county government office scattered like birds and beasts, but Li Yuanqi had already gone mad the moment he saw Lian Rongrong injured.

With another strike of the soft sword, everyone in the courtyard was killed within a few moves.

"Rongrong, how are you?" Li Yuanqi asked anxiously, looking at Lian Rongrong, whose face was deathly pale.

Lian Rongrong shook her head: "Let's leave here first."

"Alright!" Li Yuanqi sheathed his soft sword, picked up Lian Rongrong around the waist, and strode out of the county government office.

“Yuan Qi, Fu Bao and the others are in the ring, but what about those guards and Wang Yang…”

Lian Rongrong's voice was very weak, but she needed to explain the current situation to Li Yuanqi first.

When Li Yuanqi heard the news that all the secret guards had died, he paused slightly in his steps.

But he quickly suppressed his emotions and left the place of trouble with Lian Rongrong without saying a word.

Li Yuanqi found a secluded place to settle down with Lian Rongrong temporarily.

"Rongrong, you should go into the space to rest quickly, you are badly injured."

Lian Rongrong shook her head with some worry: "Since that attack just now, I haven't been able to hear Xiaobai's voice!"

I don't know, is he...?

Lian Rongrong knew in her heart that if it weren't for Xiaobai's rescue, she would probably be dead by now.

Lian Rongrong didn't know how much damage her attack had done to Xiaobai, but not being able to hear Xiaobai's voice made her very uneasy.

Just then, a weak voice rang in Lian Rongrong's mind.

[Master, I can actually still be saved...]
