C29 Capture the Bamboo Stick

Lin Cheng grabbed the Purplish Red Horse and stopped his escape.

Zhu Ziqiao caught up with him very quickly. She looked at Lin Cheng who was sitting on the horse. She was a little short of breath. She gritted her teeth and said, "You treacherous brat. Why don't you run? Why don't you run?"

Lin Cheng snorted and said, "If you did not have the protection of your subordinates, I would have chopped you off the horse long ago!"

"Stinking brat, you still dare to be stubborn!"

Zhu Ziqiao said disdainfully, "I have already told you that I am the only one. Now you have seen my subordinates?"

Lin Cheng looked around and indeed did not see half a person. He was a little puzzled. Could it be that Zhu Ziqiao really did not bring people over?

"How is it? Now you know that you are a coward... Stinky brat, you dare to sneak attack me!"

Before Zhu Ziqiao finished speaking, Lin Cheng suddenly moved. He jumped up from the horse's back and pulled out the long knife in his hand. In an instant, he rushed towards Zhu Ziqiao who was on the white horse.

The first move of the Scorching Sun Knife, Bone-Displacement!

Zhu Ziqiao was so angry that her pretty face turned red. However, she saw that Lin Cheng was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, he was in front of her. She did not have time to say anything. She casually pulled out a short sword and raised her hand to block.

"Clang!"

There was a crisp sound.

The two of them passed by each other. Lin Cheng landed on the ground and could not help but be stunned.

The long knife in his hand was actually cut in half by Zhu Ziqiao's short sword in an instant. The blade flew out, leaving only the handle of the knife in his hand.

"He is indeed a shameless little thief. He actually dared to sneak attack!" Zhu Ziqiao, who had just sat up from her horse, angrily shouted. The short sword in her hand was about to stab towards Lin Cheng.

In a moment of desperation, Lin Cheng stepped on the Seven Stars Treading the Clouds and suddenly jumped towards Zhu Ziqiao. At the same time, he grabbed Zhu Ziqiao's wrist, preventing her short sword from piercing him.

"Little thief!"

"Bang!"

Both of them fell from their horses at the same time and fell to the ground.

Zhu Ziqiao cried out in pain. Lin Cheng tightly grabbed her wrist and his two legs tightly wrapped around her legs. The two of them rolled on the ground and instantly became close combat.

"Bastard!"

Zhu Ziqiao was embarrassed and angry. She wanted to kick Lin Cheng away, but her hands and feet were restrained by Lin Cheng. The two of them tightly tangled together and could not separate at all.

In her embarrassment and anger, Zhu Ziqiao let go of the hand holding the short sword. She suddenly looked up and bit Lin Cheng's neck hard.

"Oh!"

Lin Cheng took a breath of cold air and made a muffled sound. He could not help but loosen his hand.

The Yuan energy in Zhu Ziqiao's body suddenly erupted and with a loud bang, it almost sent Lin Cheng flying. Lin Cheng instantly circulated the Yuan energy in his body and once again pressed down on Zhu Ziqiao, tightly confining her.

"I'm going to kill you... Ah!"

Zhu Ziqiao almost went crazy. She was tightly held by a man. This was the first time in seventeen years that she was treated like this. It made her feel ashamed and angry. She wished she could stomp Lin Cheng to death.

However, what made Zhu Ziqiao even crazier was that no matter if it was her strength or the Yuan energy in her body, they were not comparable to this little thief. Being held by Lin Cheng made her unable to resist.

"Pa!"

Lin Cheng repeatedly slapped the back of her waist a few times. Zhu Ziqiao only felt her waist go numb and her entire body went stiff. Half of her body went numb and she was actually unable to move.

She was instantly shocked. "What did you do to me? Little thief, if you dare... I will kill you!"

"You are so young, why are your thoughts so dirty!" Lin Cheng clapped his hands and stood up. He looked at her and couldn't help but shake his head.

"Little thief! Who are you calling dirty? You are the dirty one! You are a shameless person!" Zhu Ziqiao was so angry that her face turned pale. She wished she could bite Lin Cheng to death.

"Diabolical!"

Lin Cheng shook his head and looked around. His eyes fell on the horse whip that Zhu Ziqiao threw on the ground.

He quickly took the horse whip away and tied a knot in the middle to form a simple rope. He nodded in satisfaction. The material of the horse whip was extremely solid, and it was very suitable to be used as a rope.

"You, what are you doing?!"

Zhu Ziqiao saw Lin Cheng walking towards her with the horse whip that he had removed. She immediately became nervous. "Little thief, let me tell you, I am the young lady of Wen Family. If you dare to do anything to me, Wen Family will never let you go... Ah! "

Lin Cheng did not care about her cries and directly tied her hands and legs up. He looked left and right and said," Zhu Ziqiao, I have no grudges with you. In the future, we will walk our own paths and mind our own business. How about it? "

" No enmity? "

Zhu Ziqiao snorted and said, "You are really an ungrateful villain. Don't forget that you still owe me your life. Now you treat me like this?"

Lin Cheng frowned. "When did I owe you my life?"

Zhu Ziqiao said disdainfully, "You don't want to admit it? About a month ago, you were blocked by people from the Chu Family by the river. If I didn't deliberately say that you are from the Unification Sect, do you think you could have run away? Didn't I save your life? You saved your life, and you even got a Storage Bag. In the end, not only did you not thank me, you even treated me this way. You are an ungrateful bastard!"

Lin Cheng was slightly startled. He opened his mouth, but there was nothing he could say.

After careful calculation, it was indeed Zhu Ziqiao who saved him once. Although he should have been able to run away at that time, it was not possible for him to escape unscathed.

Furthermore, if the people of Chu Family continued to chase after him, he might not have been able to escape back then.

"You have nothing else to say, right?"

Zhu Ziqiao saw this and could not help but say, "This means that you still have some conscience. You know that I am your saviour. Now hurry up and untie me, then kowtow and apologize to me!"

Lin Cheng originally really wanted to thank her, but seeing her being so unruly, he was instead amused. "Kowtow and apologize to you? You chased after me so persistently, yet you still want me to kowtow to you?"

Speaking up to this point, he was instantly startled. He had been entangled with Zhu Ziqiao for quite some time. If the people from the Wen Family were nearby, they might chase after them at any time.

Thinking of this, he stood up and said, "Zhu Ziqiao, no matter what, you have saved me once. Although you have been chasing after me, I have to accept your kindness. So, if I don't kill you today, we will part ways here! "

After saying that, Lin Cheng turned around and left.

"Ai! Don't, don't leave!" Zhu Ziqiao suddenly became anxious, "You plan to leave me alone in this wilderness?"

" Then it has nothing to do with me. " Lin Cheng said without turning his head.

"Your people should not be far away. Just let them take you back. However, if your men don't come fast enough... If there are bandits or wild beasts passing by, then pray for your own good! Also, if you fall into my hands again next time... I won't be so lucky."

"Shameless bastard! He thinks he's smart!"

Zhu Ziqiao was so angry that her pretty face turned red. "I told you long ago that I was the only one who came. My subordinates did not come."

Lin Cheng sneered and did not believe her at all.

"I sneaked out!"

Zhu Ziqiao was furious and shouted, "You left me here alone. Do you want me to die?"

Lin Cheng was slightly stunned. He turned to look at her and asked, "What did you say?"

Zhu Ziqiao urgently said, "Half a month ago, I separated from my subordinates. I deliberately ditched them and ran out alone!"

Lin Cheng looked at her suspiciously, wanting to see if what she said was true or false from her face. "Do you want to use this trick to buy time?"

"Oh my god!"

Zhu Ziqiao was about to go crazy. "How did I meet such an idiot like you? The hateful thing is that I actually fell into your hands... Do you think that if I brought people here, I would come alone to catch you?"

Lin Cheng naturally did not believe her. Zhu Ziqiao had always said that he was crafty, but in his opinion, this girl was clearly not someone to be trifled with.

He clearly remembered that Zhu Ziqiao had squeezed Chu Kuangwei with just a few words and made him speechless. She even cheated Chu Kuangwei to compensate with a Storage Bag.

Although the Storage Bag had fallen into his hands, the Chu Family had suffered a serious loss. The Chu Family had been weakened, so the Wen Family was naturally the one who was happy.

Therefore, Lin Cheng knew that Zhu Ziqiao was definitely a cunning girl!

"You still don't believe me?"

Seeing Lin Cheng's vigilant eyes, Zhu Ziqiao bit her lips with her teeth. She suddenly said, "Alright, let me tell you. Actually, I have long wanted to escape from the Wen Family. I took this opportunity to get rid of my subordinates and ran out."

When Lin Cheng heard this, he couldn't help but frown. "Escape from the Wen Family? Aren't you the eldest daughter of the Zhu family?"

"I..."

Zhu Ziqiao wanted to say something but stopped herself. In the end, she only shook her head and said, "I can't tell you the reason for this for the time being! But I can guarantee that what I said is true. It doesn't matter if you believe it or not! "

Lin Cheng thought for a moment and still shook his head and said, "Sorry! I don't want to take the risk. My strength is too low. If your subordinates chase after me, I'm afraid I will only die. Goodbye! "

"Even if you don't believe me, I am still your savior. You left me here alone. If something really happens to me, you are really an ungrateful villain! You'll never be able to get rid of me in this lifetime! "

When Zhu Ziqiao saw that he was really going to leave, she immediately shouted.

Lin Cheng's figure paused and his heart was somewhat hesitant.

What Zhu Ziqiao said made some sense. Strictly speaking, the fact that he was able to obtain the Storage Bag and escape unscathed was indeed because Zhu Ziqiao helped him a lot.

If something really happened to Zhu Ziqiao here, he would feel uneasy.

"Alright, I will believe you this time!"

Lin Cheng made up his mind and said, "I can send you to the station in front. I will put you down at that time."

Zhu Ziqiao immediately said, "No! If you want to take me away, although this place is no longer the territory of Wen Family, if they really want to chase after me, they can still find this place. You have to bring me further away. It's best if you can leave the Dongzhou! "

"Leave the Dongzhou?"

Lin Cheng laughed and said, "How big is the Dongzhou? Do you think that with the strength of the two of us... How many years will it take for us to leave Dongzhou? Can we go there? At most, I can only bring you to the center of Dongzhou, and then we'll go our separate ways!"

Zhu Ziqiao said," Okay! Untie it for me..."

"Don't even think about untying you. If you want me to bring you, I have to tie you up!"

As he spoke, Lin Cheng lifted Zhu Ziqiao up and placed her on the back of the white horse. He flipped over and got on the Purplish Red Horse. Under Zhu Ziqiao's angry shout, he waved the horse whip and quickly left.
