Someone in the yard shouted, "Open the door! Open the door!"

Mrs. Chenghua immediately ran towards the door.

The silver needle in Shui Qingyan's hand hesitated for a moment, but did not make a move.

Sooner or later, this door would have to be opened.

Shui Qingyan slowly said, "If you don't want to die, then hurry up and leave."

Ah!" Instantly, everyone reacted and ran for the courtyard door.

"What's wrong, what's wrong?" Before the tears on the midwife's face dried up, she ran out. She seemed to have heard something about the government.

"The government has captured eighteen of the strongholds, hurry up and flee." Shui Qingyan laughed.

Ah!" The midwife was overjoyed. She immediately ran towards the door, shouting, "My lord, this old woman was taken in to give birth. This old woman didn't do anything. My lord, please be merciful!

"Someone from the government!" The other three maidservants also rushed out.

The door opened, and the Mrs. Chenghua Mistress was the first to kneel down and kowtow, "My Lord, please let us go, we, a group of women, were also caught!"

"Lord, please be merciful!" Everyone kneeled on the ground.

Assistant Minister Ma swept his gaze over the women kneeling on the ground, then raised his eyes again and looked inside, "Are you coming out by yourself, or do you need me to invite you out?"

Shui Qingyan slowly stepped forward.

Looking at Shui Qingyan who had appeared in her line of sight, the corner of Assistant Minister Ma's lips curled up into a wicked smile. "Fourth Miss, you have quite the guts.

The moment the Assistant Minister Ma's words left his mouth, everyone looked at the unremarkable old man.

Shui Qingyan's lips curved into a faint smile: What is Assistant Minister Ma saying, little old man? I was caught by the Uncle Cheng to deliver the baby, not some Fourth Miss.

Assistant Minister Ma laughed out loud: "Fourth Miss, do you think that I won't be able to recognize you after using the medicine at the throat after dressing up as a little old man? In the throne room, the fourth lady shone so brilliantly that even if you were to turn into ashes, I, your assistant, will still remember you! "

When the Assistant Minister Ma said this, all the women were stunned. Even though they had been staying in the village all day, they knew about everything that had happened outside the mountain.

"She is the fourth lady of the Shui Family who had killed her personal maid!"

"Didn't the emperor prohibit Fourth Miss from entering?"

"Yes, yes! Fourth Miss was blind and was whipped."

"Why is Fourth Miss here?"

Shui Qingyan listened to the discussion of the women in the courtyard, and smiled lightly as she looked at Assistant Minister Ma, "The assistant minister has done a great service today."

Assistant Minister Ma's eyes were filled with ferocity. "Fourth Miss is right, the Emperor will definitely reward you greatly if you capture this person who despises the Emperor."

"Little old man, not Fourth Miss." Shui Qingyan laughed as she shook her head.

The Assistant Minister Ma coldly snorted, "Who cares if you are or not, today, will be the day you surrender, or die by yourself!"

"Let's see who dares to touch a single hair on her head!" Bao Ningcheng's words suddenly came out from the room.

Everyone cast their gaze into the room.

"Uncle Cheng, the one who spoke was Uncle Cheng."

"Why hasn't Uncle Cheng come out yet?!"

"What is the relationship between the Uncle Cheng and the Fourth Miss?"

Inside the door, Bao Ningcheng who was covered in blood, slowly appeared in everyone's sight.

"First Madam!"

"Where does Uncle Cheng want to go?"

"What is the Uncle Cheng doing?!"

Someone at Assistant Minister Ma's side immediately said: "Assistant Minister, this is the Bao Ningcheng who went to the mountains to gather herbs. He is the trusted aide of the Great Master, Zhu Mingyi."

Assistant Minister Ma looked at Bao Ningcheng's bright and lively eyes and frowned. "Rumor has it that the number one warrior of the Eighteen Stronghold was him?"

"Yes." The subordinate immediately replied.

Assistant Minister Ma's brows furrowed even more tightly. "This person must be taken down!"

"Yes sir!" The subordinate accepted the order and waved his hand, instructing everyone to stand guard.

The sound of the weapons scraping against the air reached Shui Qingyan's ears. The smile on Shui Qingyan's face slowly turned cold.

Not only did Assistant Minister Ma want to kill him, from the looks of it, he also wanted to capture Bao Ningcheng.

Bao Ningcheng carried First Madam Brother Xige's corpse and stood beside Shui Qingyan. Both of her eyes were bloodshot and her voice hoarse, "Since you know that within the eighteen strongholds, not everyone is a devil, why did you still kill them?"

Shui Qingyan smirked, "Could it be that Uncle Cheng didn't see that someone was betraying me?"

"You are the Fourth Miss of the Shui Family, Shui Qingyan?" Bao Ningcheng looked at Shui Qingyan, and blood shot out of his eyes.

"If I say no, would you believe me?" Shui Qingyan smiled faintly as she looked in the direction of the Assistant Minister Ma.

Bao Ningcheng looked at the side of Shui Qingyan's face with a serious face: "I believe you."

Shui Qingyan was startled.

"I believe you." Bao Ningcheng repeated.

Shui Qingyan smiled slightly: "Since you want to believe me, then why are you spouting so much nonsense." With that said, the silver needle in her hand flew out, straight towards Assistant Minister Ma.

"Assistant Minister!" The man beside Assistant Minister Ma reacted quickly and pushed Assistant Minister Ma hard. A silver needle pierced right between his eyebrows and he fell to the ground.

Ah!" Immediately, the woman in the courtyard screamed.

Seizing the chaos, Bao Ningcheng pulled Shui Qingyan's collar and threw him out of the courtyard.

While holding the subordinate who died for him, Assistant Minister Ma roared towards the direction that Shui Qingyan flew in: "Someone from the east, stop her!"

Assistant Minister Ma roared, and suddenly he felt a chill behind him. He never thought that Shui Qingyan would actually be able to kill him.

Both of his hands moved, and the silver needles that were hidden in his sleeves flew out once again, landing right on the center of the man's eyebrows. Those who instantly surrounded Shui Qingyan fell over.

Bao Ningcheng followed closely behind, and flew out.

Shui Qingyan steadily landed on the ground, and just as her feet touched the ground, she heard Bao Ningcheng say: "Little old man, can you follow me?"

"I don't know Qing Gong, but I can run quite well." Shui Qingyan stood up and immediately moved closer to Bao Ningcheng.

"If you follow me, we can only go up the mountain. There's no other way." Bao Ningcheng looked at the rapidly rushing soldiers and said.

Shui Qingyan nodded: "Lead the way."

After Shui Qingyan finished speaking, Bao Ningcheng had already opened up a path: "On the right is the vice minister, on the left is also a lot of people, we want to break out from the right, you better be careful."

Shui Qingyan nodded her head: "The little old man has the ability to protect herself."

Bao Ningcheng looked at the medicine chest that Shui Qingyan was tightly protecting, and pursed his lips: "The little old man saved my life, if Bao Ningcheng does not die, I will definitely repay you for doing something great."

Shui Qingyan smiled lightly: "I'm not lacking in cattle, nor am I lacking in horses."

Seeing the loyal smile on Shui Qingyan's face, Bao Ningcheng shot a glance at the soldiers rushing towards them. His eyes widened as he exclaimed, "Ah!

Following Bao Ningcheng's loud roar, Bao Ningcheng's footsteps became faster and faster as he ran past them. Each of the steps he stepped on had more cracks than the last.

"Mountain Splitting Kick!" Bao Ningcheng shouted, he kicked out, one meter away, wherever the kick went, everyone spat out blood, and they all flew out.

Assistant Minister Ma followed closely behind and immediately pulled a person over as a cushion. The man's ribs were shattered by the kick and he died on the spot, spitting out blood. Assistant Minister Ma, who could not take the impact of the wind from his feet, also sat on the ground.

"Let's go!" Bao Ningcheng roared, stepping on the dead bodies, he quickly left the encirclement.

Shui Qingyan followed closely behind.

Seeing that Bao Ningcheng and had broken through the encirclement, the Assistant Minister Ma pushed the corpses away and shouted, "Chase!

"Kill!" In an instant, everyone was chasing after Shui Qingyan.

"Send out the signal, notify everyone, chase them with all you have!" Assistant Minister Ma got up, and the veins on his forehead popped out, "We cannot let these two off!"

Assistant Minister Ma was angry.

When the signal detonator was released, the people who saw the red clouds in the sky began to gather in this direction.

The red cloud signal is a sign of crisis

At this time, Manager Huai had just reached the halfway point of the mountain when he bumped into the person who had run out.

"Aiyo, why are you panicking!" Manager Huai frowned.

"Manager Huai, something happened. A red signal was released from the foot of the mountain!" The man immediately knelt down.

Manager Huai opened his eyes wide and immediately ran to the cave entrance. Looking over from the cave entrance, he saw that the eighteen strongholds were indeed filled with people, and the red signal in the air had yet to completely disappear.

"Send a message to the lord, something happened inside and the lord has to decide!" Manager Huai immediately ordered.

"Yes, this lowly one will go now." The man got up and started to run.

"Wait." Manager Huai turned around, "Let's go together, we will go back immediately."

The man and Manager Huai rushed towards Zhang Jing's direction.

Zhang Jing stood at the entrance of the mountain path.

Manager Huai, who was running until he was out of breath, fell down like a dog eating the mud, falling next to Zhang Jing's feet.

"Manager Huai." Zhang Jing immediately came over to help his.

"Milord, milord, quick, quick, think of a way!" Manager Huai panted heavily.

Zhang Jing's heart went cold. Could it be that something really happened?

"Assistant Minister Ma, Assistant Minister Ma and the others are in danger." After Manager Huai finished speaking, he laid on the ground, unwilling to say a single word and could only breathe heavily.

Zhang Jing's heart instantly went cold, "Assistant Minister Ma is in danger!" Could it be that Qingyan had failed!?

"My lord, do you want to choose now?" Immediately, someone kneeled in front of Zhang Jing.

"This subordinate is willing to save Assistant Minister Ma." Someone asked for orders.

"Lord, 800 brothers from the stronghold, please go and save them!" Someone else said …

Zhang Jing clenched his fists: "How many of us are left?"

"Lord, all together, there are still four hundred left." Someone in the underling said immediately.

"If we don't succeed, then we'll die. Today, since we brothers are going out, we'll either go back and ask the Emperor for meritorious services, or we'll die together here. We can be considered as worthy of our relatives and families!" As Zhang Jing said this, he shook his fist, which was covered in cold sweat.

"My lord is wise!" Someone immediately said.

"Gather everyone, let's attack from the mountain path!"
