Retribution

It was not only the refugees who were excited about the 50 taels of silver, but also the soldiers.

There was no need for the leader of the cavalry to give instructions. The cavalry guard shot arrows at the refugees who were pouncing on Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao.

Several refugees were shot to death in an instant. The refugees immediately did not dare to go forward anymore. They were afraid that they would lose their lives before they could snatch the silver.

The leader of the cavalry looked at the indiscernable refugee with interest.

“You said they robbed you of 50 taels of silver. What evidence do you have?”

From the tattered clothes, it should be a woman. She suddenly raised her face and lifted her knotted hair, revealing a terrifying face.

The scar that covered half of her face and her bulging eyes made her look like a corpse that had been dead for several days.

The soldiers were shocked when they saw it.

She pointed her bony finger at Chu Tianbao, her gaze like that of a malicious ghost. “He cut my face with a green dagger.” Her dark eyes stared hard at Bai Wutong. “She thought I was dead, so she hid all my silver in my clothes. She didn’t know that I was actually not dead! She even saw it all!”

Bai Wutong found her a little familiar. It took her a few moments to recognize her as Li Miaoyu.

She did not see Li Dali and the others. She did not know how she got here and even dared to accuse her of snatching 50 taels of silver.

If she had any intelligence, she would not have hidden the silver in her undergarments.

50 taels of silver was at least a few catties. How could a piece of undergarment contain it?

The leader looked at Chu Tianbao’s waist. It was indeed a green dagger.

Their fixed gazes landed on Bai Wutong’s chest again, as if they wanted to see if there was that much silver inside.

Chu Tianbao pulled out his dagger and stood in front of Bai Wutong, as if he was about to kill someone in the next second.

Instantly, countless bows were aimed at them.

As long as Chu Tianbao dared to move, they would die on the spot.

When Li Miaoyu thought of Chu Tianbao’s terrifying speed of hurting people, she subconsciously curled up. However, she felt that she was about to die anyway, so there was nothing to be afraid of. She stared at Bai Wutong gloomily and smiled strangely. “Sir, everything I said is true. If you don’t believe me, you can let her take off her clothes now. The silver is definitely hidden in her clothes.”

Bai Wutong finally understood why Li Miaoyu had framed them for stealing 50 taels of silver. Li Miaoyu wanted her to be humiliated in public. If Chu Tianbao dared to make a move, he would definitely be killed by the officials here.

She was quite unscrupulous.

She knew that these beasts could do it.

Immediately, one of the cavalry guard smiled wretchedly and said, “No wonder this woman’s buns are so big. It seems that there’s silver hidden inside. I wonder if the feeling of the silver buns is different.”

Immediately, an officer volunteered excitedly, “Boss, I’ll go search for silver!”

“Hahaha, a young scout has never seen a woman before. Alright, go and search properly. Don’t leave a single piece of clothing with her, lest she hides silver.”

As soon as he said that, all the soldiers present locked their burning gazes on Bai Wutong.

Searching a woman’s body in broad daylight was much more interesting than watching these ugly commoners kill each other.

Someone found Chu Tianbao an eyesore and even said with a smile, “Pull the man away. Don’t block my view.”

Li Miaoyu smiled smugly. Her skull-like face was like a demon that had risen from hell.

It was worth it for her to take revenge before she died.

The cavalry guard jumped down from the horse and walked to Chu Tianbao. He said impudently, “B*tch, if you don’t want your husband to die so early, come out quickly and stand obediently.”

There was another burst of laughter. “Hahaha, young scouts are just dawdling.”

Chu Tianbao’s dark eyes were already filled with a ferocious glint. If Bai Wutong hadn’t pressed down on his hand, he would have attacked long ago.

They did not want to get involved, but they insisted on courting death. Bai Wutong did not mind helping them.

Bai Wutong lowered her voice and said to Chu Tianbao, “Grab the middle one.” Then she let go.

After receiving permission, Chu Tianbao wiped the cavalry guard’s neck with ghostly speed.

The soldiers widened their eyes in horror. They did not even see how Chu Tianbao attacked. Before anyone could react, Chu Tianbao jumped into the air and pulled the leader off his horse.

Then, Bai Wutong pressed her axe against the throat of the leader.

The razor-sharp blade would kill him in a heartbeat.

The leader lowered his head and said in a panic, “What do you want?”

The soldiers were dumbfounded. It had only been a blink of an eye, but their leader had already been captured.

They raised their weapons, not daring to move.

Bai Wutong sneered and cut off his waist rope with a dagger. The leader’s two white furry legs were immediately exposed to all the refugees.

Of course, she had to pay back double for the insult she had just suffered.

The leader’s face was livid. He gritted his teeth and said, “Stupid bitch, you’re courting death!”

Before he could finish his sentence, a cold light flashed and one of the leader’s arms was cleanly cut off by Bai Wutong.

“Ah—!!!!”

Blood splattered on Bai Wutong’s face. She looked up with a cold expression, like a Rakshasa who killed without batting an eyelid.

The soldiers were so frightened that their legs went limp. Their leader was the nephew of the magistrate. How were they going to explain themselves when they returned after he was slashed like this!

Bai Wutong looked at the frightened Li Miaoyu.

Li Miaoyu sat on the ground and retreated. “Don’t kill me, don’t kill me…” When she was really nearing death, she didn’t want to die.

Bai Wutong sneered. “I thought you had some guts.”

Li Miaoyu was extremely afraid. She knelt down and begged, “I know I was wrong. I shouldn’t have framed you for stealing the silver. I’m guilty. Please forgive me again!”

Before she could finish, Bai Wutong gave her a swift response.

If she and Chu Tianbao were just ordinary people without any capabilities, they would have already died from humiliation.

Li Miaoyu was killed just like that. The military leader, who had lost an arm, struggled and begged with snot and tears, “Let me go, please let me go…”

The refugees were also stunned. They did not expect the high and mighty soldiers to look like a dog wagging its tail and begging for mercy.

They looked at Bai Wutong’s fragile-looking back and the bleeding axe in her hand, as if something had been quietly opened.

The deputy commander said sternly, “Release our leader and we’ll spare your lives!”

The corners of Bai Wutong’s mouth curled up as she pulled up the leader of the soldiers who was struggling at death’s door. She looked at the refugees behind her and said word by word, “The soldiers should be protecting the people, but they are wantonly bullying us. Even a clay figurine still has some temper. Everyone has been forced to a dead end, yet we still have to beg them humbly?”

The soldiers looked at Bai Wutong in horror. What was she trying to do!

There were tens of thousands of refugees here. If… if they really rebelled, their troops would not be able to withstand it at all!

The emaciated refugees looked at each other. Their eyes were burning with anger as they raised their hands and shouted, “No! No! No!…”

The deputy commander shouted calmly, “You’re rebelling! Your entire family is going to be executed!”

Rebel and wipe out her entire family!

They were not full and could not drink water. Their nine families were about to be wiped out, so what was there to be afraid of?

Bai Wutong saw the determination in their eyes and casually threw the commander in front of them.

“If you want to live, charge forward. If you want to die, stay here and wait for death!”
