C11

This shout was filled with energy, and everyone present heard it. Afterwards, everyone started to dig into the canyon. Some of the more daring ones started to dig into the corpses beside them.

One by one, the arrows flew straight at the blue-clothed man. With the sword in his right hand, the blue-clothed man leaned backwards and drew a sharp sword in front of his chest, causing the arrows to fall off one by one with a clanging sound. Then, the blue-clothed man did a backward somersault, standing on his feet, and quickly glancing in the direction the arrows came from, his figure moved, a shadow slid towards a nearby tall willow tree, right under the tree, his left foot lightly touched the ground, then with a whoosh, he flew up the tree. Everything happened in the time it took for a spark to fly off a piece of flint. Everyone was still in a trance, unable to react!

At this moment, a long whistle cut through the night sky. There were only a few faint shadows around the field. With a few swishing sounds, they disappeared into the forest, completely vanishing from sight! The villagers slowly peeked their heads out from under the corpses to look around. Seeing that there was no more danger, they slowly crawled out. Then, a heart-wrenching cry rang out from within the valley, mixed with a painful groan! The adults and children, kneeling beside the corpses, rolling on the ground after being injured, even going back and forth to help the fire. The scene was extremely chaotic, and the sight of it was enough to make one's heart clench!

In the end, most of the grain storage had already been burnt down by the fire. Although some of it had been poured by the villagers to extinguish the fire, there were only a few piles left for use in the end. After cleaning up the scene, the sun had risen and the village chief dragged his swollen eyes along as he stood up, looking around as if he was looking for something.

"Are you the village chief?" Suddenly, a person behind the village chief turned around and saw that he was looking for the blue-clothed man. Overjoyed, he quickly replied respectfully, "Yes, many thanks for saving us. Otherwise, we might have been met with a calamity. We just don't know why these people want to kill so many of our people."

As he spoke, the village chief's voice began to choke up …

This time, although I've met them, I can't guarantee that there won't be a next time. I should advise the village head to bring the rest of the villagers over to the village, since I've just chased them for a distance and hurt them. I don't think they will come back for a short period of time, and this will be enough time for you to get back, "the blue-clothed man said faintly.

"This humble one understands, but Hero must have come to our remote village late at night for some reason, right? What can I do for you? " After the village chief heard what the blue-clothed man said, he hurriedly asked respectfully.

"I came here specifically to look for someone. Do you have a person called Yue here?" The blue-clothed man said.

"Are you looking for Mr. Yue?" Then, the village chief told this blue-clothed man everything that had happened in the past two days, from Wu Shi bringing wounded soldiers into the village, to the Buddha head being stolen, to Yue leading people to capture bandits, and then to the conversation they had in the buddhist hall. If this was any other time, the village chief would be quite alert, and wouldn't easily leak any information to other people, but when facing his benefactor, especially this person gave him the feeling that he could be of great help to Yue, so the village head couldn't wait to tell him everything that had happened.

The blue-clothed man nodded after listening to the Village Head's explanation. He frowned and asked, "Does that mean you don't know where they went?" The blue-clothed man looked at the Village Chief and was waiting for his reply, "They're heading north." At this moment, a crisp voice sounded from behind him, "It's Little Yi. Are you hurt? Oh, it's fine as long as you're fine!"

"How did you know that?" The Village Chief checked the wounds on Xiaoyi's body as he said this. Due to their relationship over the past month, he had a special preference for Xiaoyi. "How did you know?" The blue-clothed man asked with interest, "I saw it with my own eyes!" "What, so that means you sneaked out in the morning? Didn't I tell you, ah, this child …" The village head said in a flustered manner, but due to the presence of an outsider, he couldn't act up. However, all of this came from the love in his heart, as he knew how serious this matter was!

He squatted down and stretched out his right hand to pick up the emerald green jade pendant that he had placed on Yi's chest. The cold feeling instantly spread to his fingers, "Don't touch it, Yue left this for me!" Upon seeing this, Xiaoyi hurriedly opened the blue-clothed man's hand. Her two small hands tightly held onto the jade pendant. The blue-clothed man smiled and said to himself, "All these years he has been wearing it by his side!"

"You know Yue?" Hearing the blue-clothed man's words, Xiaoyi raised her head and asked, "You know him, and do I know him very well?"

"Really, you didn't lie to me?"

"Of course I'm not lying to you. The jade pendant in your hand was given to him by me." The blue-clothed man replied with a smile, "So, you want to find Yue?" Before the blue-clothed man could reply, Little Yi quickly said, "Then you have to bring me along, we have to save Yue. His injury was not healed before, and this time he's got a lot of blood!" As she said this, Little Yi started sobbing, "A lot of blood, what happened?" The blue clothed man hurriedly asked. Thus, when Little Yi told the blue clothed man everything that she had seen that morning in detail, the blue clothed man's expression immediately sank. "I didn't expect him to be like that!"

After the Village Chief heard this, his face was full of surprise. He looked at the blue-clothed man and then at Yi. For a moment, he didn't know what to do!

"If you want to save Yue, bring me along. I can give you directions, heading towards the north. I know of a mountain road that is especially close to us, we can catch up to them very quickly!" "Since he gave you the jade, it means that you are a very important person to him. It's fine to bring you along, but maybe he doesn't want you to be in danger?" "As long as you can save Yue, I'm not afraid of danger. If you don't bring me along, you might not be able to find it within a short period of time. I know this place better than you do …" Xiao Yi looked at the blue-clothed man for a moment and shook her head helplessly, "As long as your parents agree!"

"Father ~, mother ~ ~, wu ~" At this moment, the sound of crying came from not too far away. The three of them looked over and saw a twelve to thirteen year old boy kneeling in front of the two corpses and crying loudly, "It's Da Niu, his parents were unlucky and were shot dead last night," the village head slowly said. At this time, Xiao Yi ran over and held Da Niu's hand, saying, "Da Niu, don't cry, let's go and look for Yue together. Yue and I are your family, and also my parents, okay?"

"Mhm, okay, I'm not going to cry!" Da Niu's two fists wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes. He bent down to pick up his parents' corpses and followed the crowd to the burial site, the blue-clothed man watched Da Niu's every move with a hint of surprise in his eyes. It wasn't just because Da Niu was so young, yet he had such strength, and it was also because Da Niu had unintentionally used the Gongsun family's primary footwork while he was running.

While the man in blue was lost in thought, Xiao Yi brought Da Niu to his side and said, "Yue also likes Da Niu a lot. His parents are all dead now. Let's take him to find Yue as well!"

The blue-clothed man looked at the expression in Xiao Yi's eyes and suddenly couldn't find any excuse to refuse. Even though he knew that this trip was still extremely dangerous! He stared at Da Niu for a while and then looked at Yi. The two children raised their heads and waited for his reply. Their serious and resolute expressions reminded the blue-clothed man of the months of his childhood.

The village head buried the unfortunate villagers who died a horrible death, and the guide saw Xiaoyi's parents. Surprisingly, they did not have any objections to the matter of Xiaoyi going to find Xiaoyi, of course, they did not know how dangerous Yue was, and the blue clothed man also said that he would do his best to take care of the two children. Most importantly, Xiaoyi was happy for them, and Xiaoyi was safe!

Although they were curious about the identity of the blue-clothed person, the blue-clothed person didn't speak too directly, and no one had the nerve to ask. Although they were curious about the identity of the blue-clothed person, the blue-clothed person didn't speak too directly.

After that, the village chief organized a group meeting of the villagers and expressed his wish to relocate. Although he would be reluctant to part with his family and let them leave the land they had been living on, after thinking about last night's life and death departure, for the sake of living in the future, they still agreed to move to a new place to live. Afterwards, the blue-clothed man brought Da Niu and Yi and chased after the moon without stopping!

"What does Young Master Gongsun think?"

It had been a day and a night since he last ate, and he had only given her some water to drink. At this moment, he still did not make a sound, allowing her to say whatever she wanted to say or do, but at this moment, a group of fast horses came from afar and approached them. In the blink of an eye, they ran towards them and stopped in front of them.

"What?! Three people died and three people were severely injured?! How is that possible!?" "They are all assassins of the imperial guards!" Before the rider could finish his sentence, Ah Qi shouted loudly. He turned his head at the same time and looked at the moon. The moon remained closed, showing no signs of life. After listening to the story of the rider, A Seven thoughtfully scratched his chin and no longer spoke …

"Tell them to find a place to heal up first, and then come back and meet up with the main group." After a moment of silence, Qi Qi said to the rider.

"Yes," the man on the horse said before getting on his horse. He then went back the way they came from to escort Yue back. At this moment, there were two fast horses chasing them from dozens of miles away.
