Chapter 14: Hawthorn

"Humph, I didn't expect you really have two brushes." Xiqiao couldn't help but break out a cold sweat on her forehead. With her identity exposed, she pretended to smile calmly: "But I advise you, you should figure out your position first.

Better."

At this time, both of them are on the city wall, and not even a single person can be seen around them. Even if the soldiers stationed near the city wall arrive now, it will still take half an hour to travel. In this half-quarter of an hour,

, taking off Lu Yang’s head was a piece of cake for Xiqiao!

"I originally wanted you to live a little longer, but now it seems it's no longer necessary!"

Xiqiao said as he walked quickly behind Lu Yang, and the dagger in his hand was placed in front of Lu Yang.

"It seems that knowing your true identity at this time is indeed not a clear choice." Lu Yang analyzed. Facing the sharp dagger in front of him, his expression never changed.

"It's good that you know!" Xiqiao held the dagger tightly, but she didn't make a move.

If she wanted to kill Lu Yang now, she could do it in an instant without giving him a chance to speak.

But Xiqiao didn't know what was going on with her today. She could obviously kill Lu Yang now and then directly sneak into the princess's mansion and kill the princess again, but for some reason she still couldn't take this simple step.

the first step.

Could it be because he was really bribed by those two candied haws on a stick?!

To be honest, Xiqiao himself didn't even know what he was struggling with right now.

"Tell me! Do you have any last words?" Xiqiao asked.

She just wants to find a reason to kill Lu Yang righteously. If she is allowed to kill someone like Lu Yang who has no backhand power or even doesn't want to resist, she will definitely feel very resentful.

for a long time.

To take a step back, if Lu Yang was the kind of person who committed countless murders without mercy, she would definitely kill him without mercy or even bat an eyelid.

But the most embarrassing thing now is that Lu Yang is not such a person, and his existence has not caused much damage to her, except that her finger was pricked by Lu Yang...

Yes! This guy actually dared to prick the lady’s finger! He really deserves death!

Xiqiao finally found a suitable reason.

But...is such a reason really justified...

"Is it too early for me to say my last words?" Lu Yang pinched his fingers as if calculating the time.

Hearing Lu Yang speak like this, Xiqiao immediately became more vigilant: "What do you mean by this?"

It stands to reason that anyone who can say such things must be using some trump card.

But looking at Lu Yang, whose neck was locked by her with a dagger, she really couldn't imagine what tricks Lu Yang, an ordinary person, would use to solve the current predicament.

Because she had not yet thought of a reason to kill Lu Yang, and because Lu Yang had given her food, she did not even think about killing Lu Yang immediately. Instead, she began to be more vigilant and on guard.

Lu Yang's next move.

"Do you think I would simply trust someone I just met?" Lu Yang laughed. He suddenly raised his hand and directly grabbed Xiqiao's wrist, and then took a side step to capture Xiqiao.

In my arms!

Xiqiao's eyes widened in surprise. She was absolutely confident in her speed and strength. She couldn't believe that an ordinary person like Lu Yang had the upper hand in this moment of duel!

The most puzzling thing for Xiqiao was that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn't break free from Lu Yang's arms! This guy's power seemed to have increased dozens of times in just half a day to a level that was beyond the reach of ordinary people!

"You, what kind of miraculous medicine did you take?" Xiqiao said in shock. At this time, she had no time to take into account how ambiguous her and Lu Yang's positions were at this time.

"It's hawthorn." Lu Yang said lightly: "It's not because I took some miraculous medicine, but because you ate hawthorn!"

"Hawthorn?" Xiqiao became even more confused after hearing Lu Yang's explanation. At this moment, the hunger in her stomach surged up again. This time, she was even more hungry than when she hadn't eaten for two days.

It’s several times stronger!

Because during the confrontation with Lu Yang, her spirit was in a state of high tension, so she didn't realize from the beginning that she was now so hungry that she was dizzy!

Could it be that it's not that Lu Yang's strength has become stronger, but that his own strength has become smaller due to hunger?!

"It seems you already know the reason." Lu Yang said and let go of Xiqiao's hand.

After leaving Lu Yang's restraint, Xiqiao immediately escaped from Lu Yang's arms, but before she could take two steps, her legs suddenly became unruly and her legs went weak.

, actually fell to one knee on the ground!

"To put it bluntly, candied haws is just hawthorn wrapped in sugar, and hawthorn has the effect of promoting digestion." Lu Yang explained slowly: "Although you will feel full when you eat it, as the hawthorn is digested

, you will definitely become hungrier than before."

"What?!" Xiqiao never thought that she would be tricked by Lu Yang from the very beginning!

"Five hours have passed now. I think it's your turn to say your last words now, right?" Lu Yang smiled and squatted in front of Xiqiao. At this time, he was not worried that Xiqiao would hurt him.

"I really should have killed you from the beginning..." Xiqiao said weakly.

She thought she would be very angry, but for some reason the emotion that occupied her heart was just sadness. Unknowingly, tears fell from the corners of her eyes.

Now she just felt that she was such an idiot for actually having a slight liking for a guy like Lu Yang because of those two candied haws.

Only now did she know that Lu Yang had actually been wary of her and plotting against her from the beginning. No wonder Lu Yang dared to expose her identity in person. It turned out that all of this was part of Lu Yang's calculations.

She no longer even thinks about whether the other party will take her life. She just feels that the family's hope for revenge is burdened by people like herself, and the chance of realizing it is really slim.

On the other hand, Lu Yang seemed to be as calm as an old dog, but in fact, he was also panicking in his heart.

He never thought that Xiqiao would cry at this time!

Looking at Xiqiao, who had no power to fight back, Lu Yang felt that this girl seemed a little too pitiful...

He was sure that Xiqiao would now feel that the candied haws he gave her was deliberately reserved for now. But to be honest, he only suddenly remembered it when the incident happened. As for whether it would succeed, he was not sure at the time.

You are gambling with your life.

Treating the benefits given to the other party as a means to harm the other party now, this kind of plot that happened to Xiqiao sounds a bit bloody!
