Moonlight and wind

Chapter 247 Watching with Cold Eyes

Inside the thatched hut in the forest, a small oil lamp emitted a faint light. The light slowly spread in the dark room, outlining the objects and people inside.

Su Ke'er was thrown onto the crude bed by the man in black. The light lengthened her figure. Tears fell like pearls from a broken string. Her body trembled constantly due to crying, and she begged for mercy.

The man in black sat on a worn wooden chair facing the bed with his feet on the edge. Only a pair of cunning eyes were revealed on his masked face, greedily admiring the struggling Su Keer.

"Although the wives of ordinary families are not very good-looking, they can save a lot of trouble!" The man in black muttered to Su Ke'er, "Their families can only report them to the authorities at most. By the time those idle yamen runners find them, they will have already become a pile of bones! And you!"

The man in black jumped up and walked to the bed and sat next to Su Keer. He reached out and touched Su Keer's slender and well-proportioned legs, enjoying it very much!

Su Ke'er was instantly shrouded in terror, her eyes wide open with endless fear and anxiety in her pupils; her breathing became rapid and disordered, and her chest rose and fell violently!

"You are different! You have a stunning beauty, a family that is rich enough to rival a country, and friends with extraordinary martial arts will find you here!" The man in black suddenly grabbed Su Ke'er's collar viciously, "Wait until I absorb your essence and break through to the Martial King. With the martial arts of the Martial Lord, I wonder what they can do to me!"

After saying that, he stretched out his claw-like hands, grabbed Su Keer's sleeves, and pulled hard, revealing her snow-white arms!

Su Ke'er's tears flowed out like a spring, running across her delicate face and wetting her clothes; she felt helpless and terrified, as if the whole world had collapsed at this moment!

"Young Master, aren't we going in yet?" Li vaguely heard Su Keer's cry for help and asked in a low voice with great anxiety.

Shan Zimo looked at the shadows of Su Ke'er and the man in black reflected in the window of the thatched house and clenched his fists tightly. "Miss Dao, do you know anything else about this person?"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Dao Sheng had already stood up and stretched out his big sword. "Just go and test it out and you'll know!"

After saying that, Dao Sheng disappeared from Shan Zimo's side like a whirlwind! When he looked again, she was already squatting under the window frame of the thatched cottage!

The next second, Dao Sheng kicked open the door of the thatched hut and rushed in!

In the thatched hut, most of Su Ke'er's clothes on the bed had been torn to pieces!

The man in black suddenly turned around, his eyes seemed to burst with cruelty and tyranny, making people feel a chill and tremble involuntarily!

"You're doing bad things to me!" The man in black was instantly surrounded by a scarlet Qi realm. He raised his hands with his fingers slightly bent, like an eagle's claws tearing its prey apart. He moved his body with light and strange steps, making him hard to predict!

When Dao Sheng saw his figure clearly again, a pair of eyes filled with bloodiness and madness appeared in front of her!

Dao Sheng was shocked, and immediately swung her sword and chopped at the black-clad man in the face!

The man in black suddenly accelerated, and a blood-red evil aura formed between his palms, like a biting cold wind from the underworld. He faced Dao Sheng's knife and slapped it with one palm!

This evil spirit pierced Dao Sheng's body like a sharp blade! His entire right shoulder to right arm was pierced by the piercing evil spirit! The knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clang!

Dao Sheng was horrified, then he picked up the knife with his left hand and continued to swing it!

"What a hassle!" the man in black muttered impatiently, "Go to hell!"

The scarlet true Qi around his body suddenly flowed, and a large amount of internal force and airflow gathered between his palms. The gloomy and evil aura became more and more dense, as black as ink!

This pitch-black palm appeared in front of Dao Sheng in an instant. It was too late to dodge, so he had to protect his sword in front of his chest to block the palm!

The palm exploded on Dao Sheng's chest and threw her out from the dilapidated window frame!

Shan Boyu and Li immediately ran over to support the seriously injured Dao Sheng, who was already unconscious!

From the woods behind, there were shouts of many people, and flames lit up the entire sky!

Butler Ye has arrived with the constables from the yamen!

When he heard that the young lady of the Su Mansion was kidnapped, the governor didn't care about his dignity and ran out barefoot! He felt his feet hurt while running on the road, so he asked the constable to take a pair of shoes and put them on!

The constables and yamen runners quickly surrounded the thatched hut, and the pacification commissioner also threatened the man in black at the door, demanding that he hand over Su Ke'er.

Shan Zimo, on the other hand, held his hands across his chest from beginning to end, and remained calm, like a mountain. He was thinking, feeling, and analyzing, and even the slightest fluctuations in the air did not escape his sharp perception!

"Young Master, this is not like you!" Shan Boyu also imitated him, standing beside Shan Zimo and whispered, "In the past, when encountering such a situation, you were always the first to rush forward. What happened today?"

Shan Zimo stood there, as if he was in another world.

"Very strange!" Dan Zimo finally uttered two words lightly.

"Young Master, you finally spoke!" Li hugged his arm, "I thought you were scared silly!" Then she pulled him to the side under a big tree, "Come and see Sister Dao!"

"Bai Yu, give the medicine!" Shan Zimo squatted beside Dao Sheng and checked her condition. "Give me a Snow Ginseng Resurrection Pill!"

"Young Master!" Shan Boyu was anxious. "Although the elixir is indeed good, it can't treat all injuries!" He took Dao Sheng's hand and took a closer look. Several dark lines appeared on his right arm! "It's obvious that he's poisoned!"

"Then do you have any antidote?" Shan Zimo looked at Shan Boyu with an intriguing expression.

"Yes," Shan Boyu scratched his head, "To detoxify, you have to prescribe the right medicine for the right condition!"

"Then what kind of poison is this?" Shan Zimo continued to ask.

"Judging from the lines, it must be caused by poison. Miss Dao has no external injuries on her body, so she can only be injured by the poisonous internal force!" Shan Boyu analyzed very seriously, while Shan Zimo on the side suppressed the curve of his mouth.

Shan Boyu looked up at Shan Zimo and laughed, "I was just guessing. It would be more reliable to find a doctor to check it out!"

"I think what you said is very right!" Shan Zimo patted Shan Boyu on the shoulder, "Send it back to the Su Mansion first and hand it over to the master. I need to observe this place for a while!"

Butler Ye called a few yamen runners, picked up the sword, and followed Li back to the Su Mansion.

No matter how the pacification envoy shouted, the man in black in the thatched hut remained indifferent!

"Or let's set it on fire!" one of the naive yamen runners suggested, "force him out!"

"Set fire?" The pacification envoy slapped him on the head, "Miss Su is still in there! Why don't you burn her to death together?"

"I think this is a good idea!" Shan Zimo walked to the side of the governor and Butler Ye with a strange smile, "Come on, set fire!"
