Ji Shuisheng turned back three times with every step he took. Su Qing stood at the door and watched him disappear before returning. She suddenly liked this feeling. It was like a married couple. The husband left, and the wife was reluctant to part.
As soon as this thought popped up, Su Qing felt warmth in her heart. Mo City had defeated the Tartan soldiers, and she could live and work in peace and contentment after some construction. This was the life she wanted.
That night was the most comfortable sleep that everyone had ever had: the warm brick bed and the warm room. There was no danger, no killing, and no need to find a place to sleep. They could sleep comfortably.
Xiaoying was also exhausted and fell asleep. When she slept, she was as quiet as a baby. She did not snore or turn around. She slept quietly through the night.
Madam Li was at the head of the kang, Xiaoying was in the middle, and Su Qing was sleeping at the end. Xiaoying wanted to fight with her to sleep at the end of the kang, but Su Qing stopped her.
Su Qing finally got used to Xiaoying lying beside her. She would feel very uncomfortable if she was sandwiched between Madam Li and Xiaoying.
Now, she felt that she had changed a lot. When she had just transmigrated, Su Qing instinctively attacked anyone who came into contact with her.
That night, Su Qing had a hazy dream. In the dream, she fulfilled her wish and planted a large field of crops. The ears of wheat were like golden waves. She stood in the middle of the waves, wearing a straw hat and holding a sickle. She was a real farmer.
Two chubby babies with little pigtails ran towards her in the wheat field, calling out for their mother in their sweet voices
“Not good; someone has sneaked into the city.”
Su Qing was dreaming that she would hug the two babies when she heard the sound of a gong and a man’s shout.
The sound of the gong was very urgent, like dense raindrops. Su Qing suddenly sat up from the brick bed. Madam Li had also been woken up. She was very nervous.
“What happened?”
“Godmother, no matter what happens, you and Xiaoying must not go out.”
Su Qing quickly put on her clothes and shoes and got off the bed. As she fastened her belt, she instructed her godmother.
“Don’t go. Troops are guarding this city.”
Madam Li was worried about Su Qing and wanted to persuade her to stay.
“I’ll go and take a look.”
Su Qing had already decided to live and work in Mo City. No one could ruin her plans. She would kill anyone who dared to ruin her plans.
The gong also awakened Xiaoying. Her eyes were filled with fear when she woke up, like a frightened little rabbit looking at the dark window uneasily. “What’s wrong? Are the Tartan soldiers here again?”
Xiaoying had just dreamed of the Tartan army attacking the city. The black mass was endless, and the rolling logs slammed into the city gate. In the end, she heard the sound of a gong—no wonder she was afraid.
“I’m not sure. I’ll go and take a look.”
Su Qing was thinking about the detonator that she had just made. If that thing fell into the hands of the enemy, Mo City would be in trouble. She felt she would stay in that room, so she didn’t take it back.
When Su Qing rushed to the house, she heard fighting from the courtyard. A few masked men in black were fighting with Ji Shuisheng, Zhong Yong, and Qu Da.
Why were Ji Shuisheng and the others in this room? Ji Shuisheng was worried about the injured and had come back to take a look. He saw the detonators that Su Qing and the others had made outside the room.
He did not dare to move the detonator casually. The power of this thing was too terrifying. He was afraid that it would cause an explosion when he moved it.
Since he couldn’t move and feared danger, he called Zhong Yong into the room and thought the two brothers would sleep there to guard these detonators.
When Qu Da and the others learned that Ji Shuisheng was coming to guard the detonators, they followed him. They slept, leaving two people to watch while the others slept on the floor.
As expected, someone wanted to snatch the detonator. They didn’t expect their decision to be correct. They couldn’t help but admire Ji Shuisheng’s meticulous thinking. There were five people, all dressed in black, and they held strange swords in their hands. The blade was like a winding snake, and the tip of the sword was the snake’s tongue. The sword’s body was dark green, and it looked like a poisonous snake swimming under the moonlight. This color was usually poisonous. Ji Shuisheng and the others dared not touch the sword’s body.
The figures of these men in black looked stiff, and their moves were more like arrays. Each was not powerful individually, but their power was great when combined.
Ji Shuisheng and Zhong Yong were already very powerful, but their attacks still flustered them.
Seeing this, Ji Shuisheng took out his Luan saber to cut their swords. The Luan saber could cut iron like mud when it touched them. Two of the blades of the men in black were cut in succession. These people seemed not to know that their swords had been cut and continued to attack as before.
Ji Shuisheng found these people very strange. He continued to cut the snake swords of the other black-robed men. Ultimately, he realized these black-robed men were the same as those before him. They did not seem to know that the snake swords had been cut. They still attacked just now and stabbed at the length of a blade.
They were like marionettes, without their thoughts!
“You guys stand back. These people are very strange.”
Ji Shuisheng shouted to Qu Da and the others, telling them not to approach if they were not skilled in martial arts to avoid being cut by the poisonous sword.
How could Qu Da and the others allow their young master to fight against so many men in black? They were not as skilled as their young master in martial arts, but it was more than enough for two of them to fight against one man in black.
Ji Shuisheng cut off the snake swords of the five men in black to the hilts. The five men attacked with the dry hilts. When he got closer, Ji Shuisheng realized that the eyes of these men in black were blank. There was no light in their eyes, and they looked like corpses.
When Su Qing arrived, Ji Shuisheng’s Luan saber had stabbed a black-clothed man in the chest. However, the biack-clothed man did not seem to feel the pain. He raised his arm and knocked away the Luan saber in Ji Shuisheng’s hand. The hilt of the sword was aimed at his heart.
Su Qing flew and kicked the man in black. Ji Shuisheng retreated and narrowly avoided the sword hilt. If he was stabbed, he might die. A small section of the poisoned sword was still on the sword hilt that had not been cut off.
“They are very evil.”
Ji Shuisheng covered his arm, which was numb from the shock. The black-shirted man was powerful. His arm was like a piece of iron, and he was numb from the impact.
After the man in black was kicked down by Su Qing, he bounced back up as if a spring had been pressed on his body. He stretched out his hands and strangled Ji Shuisheng’s neck.
Zhong Yong swung his iron hammer and smashed it hard on the arm. However, strangely, the arm did not break, and the attack’s speed did not decrease.
Ji Shuisheng quickly picked up the Luan saber. When he saw the black-clothed man flying over, the Luan saber in his hand drew an icy arc and cut off the black-clothed man’s arm.
The other men in black continued to attack Ji Shuisheng together. Su Qing also realized that something was wrong with these people. Why was there not a drop of blood in their severed arms? The speed of the attack was also different from that of ordinary people.
Ji Shuisheng’s Luan saber was a treasure that could cure evil. After cutting off the arms of two more men in black, their combat strength had significantly decreased.
At this moment, a sharp whistle was heard. The five men in black heard the whistle and flew up..
