The Elixir is for You, The Poison is for Me

#526 - Dragon's Lair and Tiger's Den

Before Lu Jing could answer, Madam Feng continued, "Don't overthink it. I'm not helping you just because you're handsome. It's mainly because I've always recognized and cherished heroes. ReadМ

"Although you're just a weak scholar, you first killed four foreign soldiers in a row, and then risked your life to return for the woman you love. This is enough to call you a hero."

Madam Feng had thought that Lu Jing would at least be humble after hearing this, but she didn't expect him to nod and say, "You have a good eye for people."

"............"

However, it must be said that Madam Feng has a lot of prestige in the寨zi. Seeing that she was going to take risks, her subordinates immediately clamored to go with her.

Even though Madam Feng repeatedly emphasized that this trip was very dangerous, those people did not flinch. Being a bandit was already a business of carrying one's head on one's belt. Although they couldn't be regarded as regarding death as home, most of them valued righteousness over life.

Seeing that she couldn't stop them, Madam Feng had no choice but to pick two good players to go with her.

Then she agreed with the others on a meeting place and a way to contact each other. After she finished all this, she looked at Lu Jing a little angrily, "Are you satisfied now?"

Lu Jing nodded, "General and all the righteous men's great kindness, Lu... Le will definitely remember it in my heart."

Seeing that Lu Jing spoke frankly, the unhappiness in Madam Feng's heart disappeared, and she sighed.

"Alright, we'll accompany you on this trip to the tiger's den."

After she finished speaking, she and a few of her subordinates quickly changed their clothes, and, following Lu Jing's example, smeared mud and blood on their faces, looking like they had just experienced a great battle.

Moreover, Madam Feng's selection of people was also very particular. She chose a man named Dahu, the most capable fighter in the寨zi, but the other one, she didn't choose the second most capable fighter, but chose Lieying.

Lieying (Falcon), as the name suggests, is a good falconer. In addition, he has half草原 blood, can speak the language of those barbarians. Taking him with them, if it is really necessary, he can go and negotiate with those foreign soldiers.

After listening to Madam Feng's introduction, Lu Jing also gave a thumbs up, praising Madam Feng for being so thoughtful.

The four rode out of the forest and headed towards the breached county town.

As for why it was the county town, and not other places outside the county.

The main reason was that after Lu Jing and the others left the city, they encountered a large team of foreign cavalry. The besieged defenders were quickly dispersed, and except for a few lucky ones like Lu Jing who escaped in the chaos, most of the people in the city were driven back into the city.

Lu Jing estimated that the女主 in the book should still be in the city at this time.

The reason why he was so anxious was that, according to the description in the original book, after these foreign soldiers broke the city, the commander of the army would usually announce a day of looting to boost the morale of the army.

Therefore, these guys left a terrible mess wherever they went.

Lu Jing, this pure love warrior, naturally wanted to hurry up.

Fortunately, entering the city was surprisingly easy. Perhaps because they felt that the defenders in the city had been almost wiped out, and most people were busy looting, no one came up to ask questions when they saw four "own people", and they let the four of them into the city so carelessly.

Madam Feng also breathed a sigh of relief and said to Lu Jing, "Let's go, take us to your... the residence of the girl you admire."

As a result, after she finished speaking, she saw a look of embarrassment on Lu Jing's face.

Lu Jing was not the owner of the original body, how would he know where the女主 lived?

His familiarity with this county town was probably not as good as that of Madam Feng and her gang who were bandits nearby, but although he didn't know the specific location, Lu Jing at least knew the女主's name and surname, and knew what kind of business her family did.

So Lu Jing came up with a骚 operation. He first rushed into a house not far away that was being looted.

Without saying a word, he drew his knife and chopped at the back of a foreign soldier's neck, helping him loosen his head.

When another foreign soldier saw Lu Jing killing someone, he was stunned for a moment, seemingly not reacting. Although it was looting, it didn't mean that anything could be ignored.

At least infighting was strictly prohibited, and violators would also lose their heads.

Moreover, the place they were looting was not a very profitable place. The reason why they rushed here first was because they had taken a fancy to the daughter of this family and wanted to come in and release their nature first.

As a result, just as one person had pushed the young lady to the ground and pulled off half of her clothes, his neck was inexplicably cut off.

Moreover, Lu Jing didn't even blink his eyes after killing someone, and rushed towards the other person.

When the foreign soldier saw this, he also woke up. He also drew his knife and blocked Lu Jing's knife. Then, perhaps because he was close, he finally realized that Lu Jing was not "one of them", but a fake.

He was about to shout loudly, but Dahu, who followed into the house, beheaded him with a knife. Madam Feng also rushed in, glanced at the poor girl on the ground, and then glanced at Lu Jing, who didn't change his expression after killing someone.

Then she seemed to understand something and suddenly said, "You came in to save people?"

"Yes." Lu Jing looked around and found a piece of clothing to put on the girl's shoulders.

He didn't expect that the girl actually knew the male lead of this book. Although she was still trembling, she showed a look of surprise after seeing Lu Jing's face, "Young Master Le? Is that you."

"It's me, it's okay." Lu Jing patted the girl's shoulder to comfort her, and then righteously said to Madam Feng, "We can't leave her behind. You've seen the situation in the city now. There are foreign soldiers everywhere. She can escape this time, but she won't be so lucky next time. Besides, she also saw us killing people."

"Then take her with us." Madam Feng thought for a while and said.

Lu Jing breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, success, he has a guide.

After that, Lu Jing didn't let the girl put on her clothes, but found a rope and tied the latter up, and had Dahu and Lieying carry her to his horse, making it look like she was a trophy he had snatched.

This made Madam Feng look at him with admiration. She thought that this scholar was brave and resourceful, and that he was in this chaotic world. As long as he didn't die, he would definitely achieve great things in the future.

After hastily disposing of the bodies and moving them under the bed, Lu Jing got back on his horse and, under the guidance of his fellow passenger, successfully found the女主's family's house.

But before he even entered the door, Lu Jing's heart turned cold.
