“What?!”

When Luo Jing’er woke up, she hugged her head and burst into a huge scream.

Her memory still remains in the fact that she was caught by the barbarians, because she was fair and beautiful, she was not cut off by the barbarians, but the situation was even worse, because she was captured by the barbarians, tossed in the hands of multiple barbarians, and was wantonly insulted.

In the end, she was caught by the barbarian leader, and she fainted completely after being insulted and had no memory after it.

So, the first second she woke up, she thought she was still in a desperate situation, except for screaming, she didn’t know what else she could do.

Cheng Huaiqian on the other side of the hall jumped up from the wooden bed almost instantaneously and looked vigilantly in Luo Jing’er’s direction, until he found that Luo Jing’er was making a noise, and relaxed. He was annoyed, and reminded:

“Stop yelling.”

Xia Ruize was also awakened, raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was already more than eleven o’clock at noon, and there were still more than twenty minutes before the alarm clock set by the two of them. There was no difference in waking up at this time.

So, he rubbed his hair, put on his grey ‘smart boots’ with green stripes, got up and stretched.

Compared with Xia Ruize, who accepted it well, Cheng Huaiqian, who was awakened, became angrier when he got up. Luo Jing’er still kept screaming like a magic sound. He couldn’t bear it at all. He threw something to Luo Jing’er’s bed.

“Bam!” The huge sound frightened Luo Jing’er, and she finally opened her eyes shivering and looked over.

Then Luo Jing’er saw two men on the opposite side. To her surprise, they had short hair and modern clothes. Obviously, they were just as inexplicable as her.

What was even more surprising was that those horrible barbarians had disappeared. Realizing this, Luo Jing’er calmly felt it, and found that she had been cleaned up, put on clean clothes, and realized that she had been rescued.

“Those, those demons…”

“They´re all dead.”

Cheng Huaiqian stared at her indifferently.

“Thank you for saving me, I…”

Luo Jing’er burst into tears with excitement, and said eagerly.

“Shut up if you know you’re grateful, and don’t make any more noises.”

Cheng Huaiqian’s voice became colder, and Luo Jing’er’s tears were frozen with a single sentence.

Xia Ruize, who had just stretched out, was also taken aback by Cheng Huaiqian’s attitude, his teammate seemed unfriendly.

Because Cheng Huaiqian helped Xia Ruize with a push at the beginning to remind him to hide, Xia Ruize always thought that Cheng Huaiqian was a good and helpful person, did this girl provoke him?

Noting that the atmosphere in the hall had frozen, Xia Ruize patted Cheng Huaiqian’s shoulder comfortably, trying to mediate the atmosphere:

“Your name is Luo Jing’er, right? You should be in the same situation as ours.”

With that said, Xia Ruize showed the same watch on her wrist as Luo Jing’er.

After the violent emotional fluctuation, Luo Jing’er calmed down a bit. Recalling what had happened in this more than one day, the little girl embraced herself and started crying, trying to suppress her crying like a helpless little animal.

Xia Ruize originally wanted to discuss the mission with her, but seeing this situation is not easy to continue.

“The barbarians will be here soon. If you don’t want the main mission to fail, you’d better fight the barbarians with us.”

Cheng Huaiqian knew that Xia Ruize still had spare white crossbows. No matter what, Luo Jing’er could help, it was always possible to shoot a crossbow from a long distance, right?

“No, no! I don’t dare, I can’t, I don’t want…”

Upon hearing Cheng Huaiqian’s words, Luo Jing’er directly refused. She didn’t want to see the barbarians at all, she didn’t even want to think about it, she just wanted to find a corner to shrink.

“Whatever you want, I’m just reminding you that you’d better find a place to hide.”

Cheng Huaiqian dropped a sentence blankly, got up and walked out of the hall, turned to the city wall, and looked north.


 

Cheng Huaiqian left neatly. Luo Jing’er was in a daze, and quickly got out of bed and ran to Xia Ruize barefoot, clutching Xia Ruize’s hand tightly, and crying:

“Please, help me, please, protect me, I am willing to give everything.”

Xia Ruize sighed. The poor girl had been frightened by what happened in these two days, her face and eyes were panicked. How innocent was she and how miserable was she now?

“I’ll find you a cellar. You should hide first. If we don’t find you, you can keep hiding. It’s best to survive three days.”

Xia Ruize did not persuade Luo Jing’er to kill the barbarians anymore. He led Luo Jing’er, who was wearing shoes, down the tower and walked into a courtyard not far away. The family’s secret cave was set behind the mural on the wall. Very hidden.

She helped Luo Jing’er in and left some dry food and water for her. Xia Ruize finally handed her a knife snatched from the barbarian leader, and told her to protect herself in the event of an accident, and then ignored Luo Jing’er’s cry begging him to stay, he turned and left.

Xia Ruize could only help here. They were not much luckier than the citizens of Bianlu City. The citizens of Bianlu City could still move and avoid, but they were trapped in Bianlu City because of their mission restrictions.

After that, it depended on the luck of Luo Jing’er. As for him, his teammate was still waiting for him on the wall, where was their battlefield.

When Xia Ruize walked to Cheng Huaiqian’s side, he found that Cheng Huaiqian still had a cold expression on his face. To be honest, his expression had never been directed at Xia Ruize. Xia Ruize touched his nose, really feeling quite uncomfortable.

“I’ve settled her, don’t worry.”

“Heh, be careful not to be rewarded with kindness.”

Cheng Huaiqian sneered.

“There will still be rewards. If you didn’t help me in the first place and I helped you again, we won’t support each other until now.”

Xia Ruize ignored his cold face and continued to say with a smile.

Cheng Huaiqian turned his head and stared at him for a while, the expression on his face finally loosened, and he stretched out his hand over Xia Ruize’s shoulder with a helpless expression, and said to him earnestly:

“Don’t look at that girl’s beauty and have any other thoughts. She is only average in appearance, nothing special.”


 

After Xia Ruize listened for a while, what was his teammate thinking? He is not a beast; how could he have any intentions towards a little girl who had just suffered a nightmare? No, no, he was so confused, how could he have any intentions towards girls?

The corners of his mouth twitched, and Xia Ruize took off Cheng Huaiqian’s hand on his shoulder, walked away silently, expressing his objection in silence.

Cheng Huaiqian didn’t care either, only when his teammate accepted his suggestion, so he also moved two steps to the side. After approaching Xia Ruize, he continued to ask:

“It’s twelve o’clock in ten minutes, are you nervous?”

Xia Ruize nodded, he had already taken out the top-grade crossbow in his hand, and two gems appeared in his other hand, a white gem and a poison gem.

Now all they had to do was to wait. The two of them stuffed a few buns in their mouths while staring at the distance.

This steamed bun was made by the middle-aged couple who sold steamed buns. To thank the two, the couple did not pursue Xia Ruize for not paying for the steamed buns at the beginning. Instead, they sent two big boxes of hot buns to them. Big buns with thin fillings.

The craftsmanship of the husband and wife was still very good. The taste of the vegetable buns was particularly good, and Xia Ruize liked it very much.

When the time displayed on the watch finally reached twelve o’clock, there was movement in the distance.

After the dirt mountain at the end of the line of sight, the barbarian riding a war horse turned out.

Xia Ruize originally had more than 500 degrees of myopia, but yesterday with the improvement of his physical fitness, his vision gradually returned to its best condition, even better than normal vision. He had put away the glasses that he had worn for many years. Now he didn’t need glasses, he could easily see far away.

The barbarians of all levels, such as the small commander, the big leader, and the small leader, actually have subtle differences in their clothes and weapons. In this regard, the city residents of Bianlu City have provided them with a lot of experience. After careful identification, Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian confirmed, the reinforcements coming this time should be a team led by two small barbarian commanders.

But the actual situation was not so simple.

The barbarians, from ordinary barbarian to small leaders, from small leaders to big leaders, and then from big leaders to small commander, are all quintet, that is, one small commander manages five big leaders.

According to the information disclosed to them by the citizens of Bianlu City, the promotion from the small barbarian commander to the big barbarian commander level was ternary. In other words, a big barbarian commander leads his own guard and three small barbarian commanders.

The barbarians who raided Bianlu City the day before were led by a small barbarian commander, but now the so-called backup team looks to be two small barbarian commanders, which means that it was actually likely to be a big barbarian commander with a guard team and two small barbarian commanders teams came together.

Roughly calculating, the barbarians who came this time were likely to have more than four hundred and sixty numbers!

Two to four hundred and six?

Or the more than 400 sturdy barbarians who are fierce and undamaged?

Xia Ruize couldn’t help holding the crossbow in his hand tightly.

To tell the truth, he was a little flustered, a little perturbed.

Fortunately, the big guy next to him was not scared at all. Not only was he not sacred, Cheng Huaiqian was a little excited after initially figuring out the size of the barbarian support team.

He kept tapping his fingers on the wall, his eyes burning in the direction of the barbarians, and even a smile appeared on his mouth, Xia Ruize couldn’t help shaking.

Such a teammate was a bit scary.

Cheng Huaiqian noticed that Xia Ruize’s expression was a little nervous, and patted his teammate on the shoulder gently and comforted him:

“Don’t be afraid, you just need to act according to the plan. I will take care of all the accidents. You can take any step you should take. Don’t hesitate.”

Xia Ruize hesitated to say something but stopped, his teammate seemed to mean that if an accident were to occurred, he should run first, leaving his teammate behind? How could he do it?

However, with the enemy in front, Xia Ruize had no intention of arguing about these details. Let’s act according to the situation, but he will not abandon his teammate at critical moments.

The barbarians in the distance did not march quickly, but slowly approached in the direction of Bianlu City. When they wanted to come, they thought that the advancement of the barbarian team was already a sure thing to win Bianlu City. They only needed to wait for the city gate to open to welcome them. Yes, there was no need to be nervous.

To be honest, if it weren’t for Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize, the barbarian’s idea was not wrong.

However, as the distance gradually approached, the barbarians found something was wrong, and there were no barbarians to greet them? There were no barbarians on the wall to greet them with a flag, everything was too quiet…

As the distance approached further, the barbarian leaders who rode at the forefront couldn’t help but stop, because they had already seen that there were two big Daxia people standing on the wall of Bianlu City!
