Star of Civilization

v2 Chapter 10: The Wind and the Blood (8)

The sound of the whip whipping echoed in the wilderness!

"Nineteen...twenty!"

After some physical negotiation, Joyner's eyes were tightly closed at this time, but she never made a sound.

"Hoo... hoo!"

The bandit leader seemed to be tired at last.

He threw down the whip, panted heavily, wiped the sweat from his brow, went straight to the side, picked up a small bucket and took a big gulp of water, and then ordered someone to untie Joyner from the iron hook.

"Boss, although this woman has a stubborn temper, she is too beautiful. I have never seen such a beautiful girl, and I can't bear it!"

A bandit leaned over, licked his lips, stretched his neck and said to the leader of the bandit, "If we sell her to Yinsha Castle, we will definitely make a fortune!"

"Nonsense, do you need to talk about it?" The leader suddenly lowered his voice, and continued, "Don't I know that she is worth more than that carload of stinking animals?"

"Hey... Can you let us go first... I don't want to be wronged..."

"Don't worry... the fat and water will not flow to outsiders' fields... When I find a buyer...then..."

The two were several meters apart, and although the voice was low, Joyner could hear it clearly.

Not long.

"Wow-"

The iron hook and the iron chain on Joyner's feet were removed and thrown aside.

Her arms and legs were still tied behind her back, and she fell firmly to the ground without struggling or resisting.

The two bandits on the left and right quickly pushed her down, took a thick piece of wood, passed it through the rope behind her, and erected her upright.

"Smelly woman, you killed several of my brothers, are you not as powerful now?"

The bandit leader came to Joyna with his arms swaying, stared at her coldly for a while, then suddenly grabbed her by the hair and raised his handsome face high.

Blood mixed with muddy water dripped down, and traces covered her face, but it was still difficult to conceal her charming and stern charm.

"Tell me, who are you? How long have you been following us?" the bandit leader asked.

Joyner closed her eyes stubbornly, trying to adjust her breathing without saying a word. At this time, no one noticed that the tear on her back was gradually closing.

"You little bitch... I don't care where you come from, and I don't care how you track us. You killed five of my good brothers, and today you must pay with your life!"

"Hmph—are you really willing to kill me?"

Joyner opened her eyes suddenly, her vision returned to normal, she looked around, then stared into the eyes of the bandit leader and said coldly, "I'm afraid you don't have the guts!"

"What did you say?" The bandit leader was taken aback for a moment.

His verbal threats intended to make Joyner give in because of extreme fear, but unexpectedly, it had another effect, and he was defeated instead.

"I said you don't have the guts!"

The leader of the bandits suddenly became angry, and said viciously, "Listen, you are worthless at all!"

"I'm going to cut open your body and see what's inside! It's like cutting open the code iron box we dug up in the ruins and throwing away the ancient currency lying in it! Understand? Your bones are now only It is suitable as an ornament on my battle armor."

"Oh, that's completely different. Even if you open my body, or directly decompose it, you won't be able to understand me or know more," Joyner shook her head and said with a light smile, "and..."

"And what?"

"I never said I was valuable."

Hearing this, the leader of the sand bandits was startled and began to wonder in his heart—did this woman already know her fate and understand their intention to sell her?

Did she guess it? How clever!

"asshole!"

He was merciless in his mouth and gave Joyner a slap in the mouth, which made the corner of her mouth bleed. But the palm of my hand is also extremely painful, as if hitting an iron plate.

Boss Hui said sternly, "I don't care who you are, don't be too arrogant in my territory, I have the final say here!"

"Hmph, what can you do with me?"

"Throw me to your subordinates and become their toy? Oh, what a joke! As long as I untie the rope in my hand, I will twist their heads off on the spot!"

The bandits beside Boss Hui trembled and shrank their necks, as if the woman's hands had strangled their own necks.

Joyner's eyes were extremely cold, staring at Boss Hui's eyeballs, as if she wanted to dig them out with her mind!

"Snapped-"

"You stubborn little bitch!"

The bandit leader gave Joyner another slap in the face.

Blood flowed down the corner of her mouth immediately, but Joyner was still sneering. He knew that this beautiful woman was very skilled, and her words were by no means alarmist. Since he had nothing to do, he could only clenched his fists and remained silent for a moment.

He suddenly smiled and said, "No matter what, luck has been with me today, even if a few brothers die, it's worth it, you can't escape from my palm... I'll be sure of the wealth and beauty in front of me! Hehe, hahaha —”

Boss Hui tried to hide his inner cowardice with a dry laugh.

"Phew, your territory, isn't this statement too ridiculous?"

"What's so ridiculous?"

Joyner rolled her eyes, gave the other party a big roll of the eyes, and said disdainfully, "There is no one in this place for a hundred miles, and those prisoners seem to be brought from the villages farther away by you, and you want to sell them to Yinsha Castle ~lightnovelpub.net~ right?"

"You also used hallucinogens made from some kind of medicinal herb, presumably to control their freedom...? It can be seen from this that you are just cowards who are worse than a bunch of dogs! Bullying the weak and fearing the strong, the means are despicable and shameless! Committing such a heinous crime, How dare you speak out loud!"

Joyner's voice gradually became higher, but her breathing was gentle. Most of her injuries have healed, and the strength in her body is frantically accumulating.

"hiss-"

"What do you know... where did you know it?"

The bandit leader didn't expect Joyner to retort, and wanted to give her a few more mouthfuls, but after careful consideration, the other party's tone was very loud, and it didn't seem like he was talking casually. Moreover, there seemed to be something hidden in her words!

This woman not only knew her purpose, but also said the name of Yinsha Castle. Combined with her strong and well-trained skills before, I am afraid that she is either a mercenary or an assassin.

Anyway, it is definitely not an ordinary person!

Could it be that she was sent by someone to get rid of her, or is there some strong background behind her?

Thinking of this, the bandit leader suddenly became frightened.

That's right!

This woman must be their deadly enemy—an assassin sent by the Rocket Gang or the Iron Castle, or a powerful mercenary hired by several nearby settlements. She followed him all the way unknowingly, she must have counted the time well and did it while he was resting, otherwise, how would she survive alone in this vast wilderness?

Anyway, her purpose is not that simple. This matter is likely to be related to Hidden Sand Castle, which is their stronghold and home to the most powerful gang in the area.

When he thought that this woman could have taken off his head without anyone noticing, he was terrified! ?
