Chapter 281
Capturing the King first is a good wisdom passed down by the ancients. It is very useful at any time. After Ming You took Meng Xian, other guards did not dare to shoot arrows randomly. After all, no matter how fast the arrows were, no matter how fast the sword was placed on Captain Meng's neck.
Meng Xian is a person who has seen the world, and he is still a little unafraid in the face of danger: "Miss, although my status in the Meng family is not very high, if I kill me, I am afraid you will not be able to easily walk out of the Meng family's gate, let alone come back and assassinate my lady."
"Shut up and let your people throw away all the things in their hands and leave here." Mingyou pulled Meng Xian's collar to block his body, but she was afraid that someone would shoot a hidden arrow from behind, so she turned around and the knife on Meng Xian's neck also moved.
Meng Xian, who was a fish meat, was also very cooperative. The main reason was that the cold knife made him frightened. He shouted and asked the guards around him to leave the crossbow arrows and retreat one after another according to Mingyou's words.
However, after this retreat, it was just a evacuation from this roof to another roof. There were more people there holding crossbows and arrows, facing the people on the roof from afar. Now it seems that it is really hard to fly.
Mingyou pulled the hostage slowly to Feiyao and asked anxiously: "How is the injury?"
"Not optimistic." Fei Yao, who was holding Wen Jin, frowned and shook his head. "The bones were not damaged, but the wound was too deep and it had already damaged the blood vessels. I had sealed the acupoints around and barely stopped the bleeding. I had to go back to deal with the arrow injury, otherwise it would be easy to cause heavy bleeding."
The wound has been briefly bandaged, but looking at Wen Jin's white lips and cold sweat on his head, I know that the situation is not optimistic. A good wife must have rice to cook. Even if Fei Yao is good at medical skills, it is impossible to heal such a serious wound with bare hands and fists.
Ming You pressed the knife in his hand: "Haven Meng, I'm really embarrassed to disturb your leisure life tonight, but we want to leave now, and you need your cooperation. Don't worry, as long as you leave the Meng family, I will let you go, how about?"
People have to bow their heads under the eaves, but they can’t bow their heads when they are placed on their necks. Of course, Meng Xian didn’t dare to shake his head. Catching thieves is a very important thing, and saving lives is indeed more important. He doesn’t need to die in the line of duty at the moment, so he can only agree.
"Scatter! They all spread out!!"
After Meng Xian shouted a few times, the guards around him confirmed what he said and gradually gave up a passage, but this seemed not to be about to let the person go, because after the guards made way, a woman came out.
The woman was wearing a white dress, with a red ribbon around her waist, and a few white plum blossoms were adorned with the ribbon. This outfit, coupled with her snow-like complexion, looked extremely dazzling in the darkness. With a peach blossom mark on her eyebrows, she really made her face look red.
"Everyone." The woman's eyes flashed with a flash. After scanning the crowd here, she shouted from the air, "I am Lingyunwu, Lingyun Villa. Several people who came to break into the Meng family uninvited to fight. Now they are threatening the hostages and leaving. Is it a bit too much?"
The Meng family entrusted the Ling family to help investigate. It cost a lot of money to capture the assassin. And as a martial arts master, the Ling family certainly could not have sent only a junior martial arts guard, and they also needed a well-known person to support the scene.
Ling Yunwu has Wu’s name, and she is ranked fifth among the Ling family’s peers. Therefore, everyone calls her the fifth lady, who is specifically responsible for the Ling family’s martial arts. Needless to say, she has reached the ninth level of realm.
It is also because the Ling family Wuwei is responsible for the protection work and has seen many shameless behaviors of the world. Therefore, this fifth lady has been a very chivalrous heroine since she was a child and extremely disgusted with evil people.
Mingyou didn’t know why the Meng family was so lively today. As soon as a group of people walked away, they all watched the fun, and they showed their face when they saw something wrong?
But now there is no time to bother with these things. Wen Jin is becoming weaker and weaker due to the loss of blood. The most urgent task is to help her heal her wounds.
Mingyou also shouted: "Miss Lingwu, there is a Wuwei in your family here, but it's almost dead. If you don't want her to sacrifice in vain, let us go and return it to you after she is cured. If there is anything else, I will visit myself."
This advice made Ling Yunwu ask: "Our Wuwei? Who are you talking about?"
"It's her! It should be the Wuwei from Yangzhou with you."
Ling Yunwu said slowly, "I did bring a few Wuwei to Yangzhou, but they are all men and no women."
"impossible!"
It is a foregone conclusion that Wen Jin joins the Ling family's Wuwei. As the commander of the Ling family's Wuwei, Ling Yunwu may not know the lowest-level Wuwei, but Wuwei cannot act without the order from his superiors. Wen Jin will not come to Yangzhou for no reason. Since Ling Yunwu also appeared in Yangzhou, he would definitely know how many subordinates there are in Yangzhou.
Ling Yunwu raised two tones and shouted Qingliang: "But! I, Ling Yunwu, never bully the weak. You have injured people now, so I can let you go, as long as you let Captain Meng go first."
"No, let him go, how can we get out of the Meng family?" Ming You said viciously, "What's more, you are not from the Meng family. How can you command the Meng family's guards and how can you ensure our safety?"
"I am indeed not from the Meng family, but I can use the reputation of the Ling family to ensure what I said just now. Since you want to let you go, let you go, and you will never regret it!! The premise is... let someone go first."
That's it, but no guards around him planned to let the assassin leave as Ling Yunwu said.
This routine is a common method used in negotiations. It provides a good condition, but it requires the robbers to do something first, which can delay time and make the robbers fall into entanglement.
But Mingyou is also an old man, and this method will not have much effect on her: "Stop talking nonsense, either let us take people away, or give you a corpse first, and we will break out."
This back and forth pull made Meng Xian even more nervous. The thing that needs to be paid attention to during the negotiations is that the robbers lose control, give up the opportunity to survive, and have the idea of taking some backs when they die. By then, he will definitely be the first to suffer.
Moreover, the people who are negotiating with others now are outsiders, so he can't shout for mercy or advise Ling Yunwu to follow Ming You's advice and let them leave first. It seems that doing so will have a greater chance of saving their lives.
The situation began to become a little anxious, and Mingyou was also thinking about other ways to leave. At this moment, several old coughs sounded from the bottom: "Cough cough, do as Miss Ling told me."
The sound sounded weak, but it seemed to have increased the volume of the voice through some means. Moreover, the speaker seemed to be very heavy. After the speech was finished, all the guards retreated from the roofs very simply.
