Chapter 353 Danger

The sudden punch stunned everyone for a while. When they reacted, Tie Niu's fist swung towards the man who was approaching without mercy.

"Oh!"

The punch hit the man's face with full force, causing his nose to bleed and he fell to the ground dizzy.

After this punch, everyone came to their senses and quickly dodged to the side.

Tie Niu stared fiercely at the man in front of him, with intermittent images constantly appearing in his mind. He began to scream "Kill them, revenge, revenge!" and punched the man again.

Everyone was puzzled by what he heard, and when they saw that he was about to attack again, they hurried forward to stop him.

However, before they could touch Tie Niu's collar, a man suddenly rushed out of the warehouse with a stool in his hand and attacked them without hesitation.

Everyone was startled and quickly retreated, but they were ultimately no match for the three men who were being swung by the stool. The stool hit them in two breaths, and the force from the stool was transmitted into their bodies, causing the three men to spit out blood suddenly. Before they could even open their mouths, the three men fell straight to the ground in the snow with their eyes wide open.

The remaining people, seeing the miserable state of the three people on the ground, were all frightened and afraid, and dared neither to move forward nor to retreat.

In the kitchen, Liu Qingcao cooked another big pot of rice. Hearing the vague sounds of fighting and shouting coming from the direction of the warehouse, Liu Qingcao raised the corners of her mouth high.

The two people on the roof of the courtyard wall had long disappeared. At this moment, Liu Si and Liu Liu were lying on the roof opposite the warehouse, looking at the chaotic scene on the snow with their eyes wide open, as if they had seen a ghost in broad daylight.

"Fourth brother, is this the girl's work?" Liu Liu's usually cold face was inevitably moved at this moment, and she became more and more wary of the girl.

Although the girl doesn't know Kung Fu, she is someone you can't mess with. She uses poison to a great extent. If you can't take precautions in time, you'll be killed.

Liu Si didn't answer, but he agreed in his heart.

He looked at the person lying on the ground below, his hands and feet waving weakly, and a complex emotion welled up in his eyes.

At this moment, fear and admiration took root deeply in his heart.

The two men watched the scene outside the warehouse in silence. After the last person fell down like a madman, they tiptoed down from the roof.

"You go and tie up the people, and I'll go and get the food back." Liu Si made a decision quickly.

It is obvious that there are less than thirty people on the ground, and it seems that there are still some who have slipped through the net.

Liu Si took one last look and was about to fly away, but Liu Liu grabbed him and stopped him from taking any risks. "Fourth brother, I went to check earlier. These people are very skilled. We should not separate."

Liu Liu stared at Liu Si with his cold eyes. Liu Si looked at the scarred man on the ground with his brows slightly wrinkled. Finally, he compromised under Liu Liu's gaze.

What Liu Liu said was right. The skills of the six of them were indeed impeccable, but there were also many people who were more capable than them. Take the man with the disfigured face on the ground. He believed that he would not be able to do anything to him if he had not been tricked by the girl.

"Then tie them up together, and then we'll go out together." Liu Si quickly squatted down, pulled out a bunch of thin wires from his waist, pulled out one at random, and tied the hands and feet of the nearest person with it.

Most of the people on the ground had their eyes closed, and only their noses were still breathing air slowly.

Scarface stared at the two people who were constantly moving in a trance. He had no strength in his body, his throat hurt badly, and his eyes began to blur. Only his ears could clearly hear the sounds outside.

His mind was in a mess, but he quickly realized that he had fallen into a trap.

Liu Si and Liu Liu tied up all the people and threw them into an empty room next to the warehouse.

These people had already fainted and lost consciousness. Without the antidote, they would not wake up for a while, so the two men locked the door with confidence.

After leaving the room, a faint fragrance filled the air. Liu Si and Liu Liu looked at each other, and when they thought of the people in the room, their bodies stiffened for no reason and they felt a chill in their hearts.

In the kitchen, Liu Qingcao estimated the time, covered the pot with a lid, put out the fire with ash, and walked out of the kitchen.

The hotpot last night attracted the people hiding around the house to take action. She thought it would take at least three days to force these people to show up, but she never expected that the leader was someone who couldn't hold back, and she almost lost her composure.

This was also a lesson for her.

Liu Qingcao narrowed her eyes and looked towards the outside of the house, feeling a little unhappy in her heart. Could it be that her kindness had gone in vain?

As soon as Liu Si and Liu Liu arrived, they saw their girl gritting her teeth. They were used to seeing the girl being gentle and kind on weekdays, and now seeing her suddenly change her expression, they couldn't help feeling a little uneasy.

Someone must have made the girl unhappy!
The two of them thought a lot in their minds, but their steps did not stop.

When he reached Liu Qingcao, Liu Si spoke carefully, "Miss, everyone in the house has been tied up and locked up, and there are still a few people guarding the food outside the house who haven't come in yet."

Liu Qingcao knew that she couldn't knock out all the thieves at once, so she wasn't panicking at all. "How many did we miss?"

Liu Si looked at Liu Liu, and Liu Liu replied, "Miss, there are eighteen people tied up in the warehouse, plus five in the kitchen, there are twelve left outside."

There were twelve people, including several masters. She and Liu Si could not deal with them at all. Liu Liu raised his face, and a look of determination flashed in his eyes.

Liu Qingcao rubbed his eyebrows. There were still twelve people left. Liu Si and Liu Liu could deal with eight people at most. If there were any thieves with extraordinary skills among them, they would probably end up in a stalemate.

Liu Xiao and his companions couldn't make it back in time, and the people in the general's mansion didn't make any movement. Among the refugees, those who were in better health had all left, and the remaining sick and weak refugees were not enough to satisfy the urge to take advantage of them. As for using poison, they were now on guard against the people in the house and would not fall into their trap easily.

Liu Qingcao was in a state of confusion.

Liu Si and Liu Liu also lowered their heads in deep thought. This time they were in a really difficult situation.

Just when the three of them were frowning, there were knocks on the door outside the house. Liu Si's eyes lit up and he looked at Liu Qingcao without taking any action.

Liu Qingcao nodded at him, and his brows relaxed slightly.

Liu Si quickly opened the door, and his eyes suddenly lit up as he looked at the door.

"Brother, why are you back?" Liu Si saw the people behind them again and asked with a puzzled look on his face, "What's going on in Yucheng?"

There was a very long wound on Liu Xiao's back, and blood was soaking his clothes bit by bit. Even so, he remained serious and didn't say a word.

Yu Cheng looked at the wound on Liu Xiao's back and immediately blamed himself. He looked around and felt anxious.

"Brother Liu, your eldest brother has a big cut on his back. You should go back to the house first."

Liu Si was startled and quickly made way for the person to enter.

When Liu Xiao walked past him, a strong smell of blood rushed into his nose. He looked up at his back and saw a bloody cut, which made him gasp.

Who did this!?

Liu Si was confused and angry, and followed Liu Xiao with a gloomy face.

When Liu Qingcao saw Liu Xiao and Yu Cheng, he was obviously stunned.

Why did Liu Xiao come back? What's going on with Yu Cheng behind him? Isn't he guarding the house?
Seeing the girl looking at her, Yu Cheng hurried forward to explain, "Girl, I heard a knock on the door early in the morning. As soon as I opened the door, I was kidnapped before I could even see who was at the door. Fortunately, Brother Liu Xiao discovered something was wrong on the way back, so he rescued me."

Liu Qingcao tightened her fingers. These people came prepared, but she gave them an advantage and took advantage of them.

"It's good that everyone is okay. In this chaotic world, you have to be careful when you open the door." Liu Qingcao didn't plan to say more. He just glanced at Yucheng and then set his eyes on Liu Xiao. "Liu Xiao, why are you back?"

"Miss, I was walking along the sidewalk when I realized something was wrong, so I turned back. On the way, I saw three people holding Yu Cheng, and I rescued them. These people were very skilled. Liu Er and Liu San were escorting the three people behind. I was afraid that something might happen to the house, so I rushed back first." Liu Xiao talked about the fight nonchalantly, and he didn't even seem to notice the pain in his back.

Liu Qingcao hummed, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms and handed it to Liu Si, "Go and apply medicine to Liu Xiao."

Liu Si took the porcelain bottle as if it was his baby and helped Liu Xiao into the house.

Only Liu Liu and Yu Cheng were left in the main room, with a hint of sadness between their brows. Liu Qingcao supported his head with one hand, leaning diagonally on the table.

If three more people are removed from the twelve, there will be nine people left. Liu Er and Liu San are guarding people in the back. It's five against nine, so there is still a chance of winning.

I just don’t know how skilled these nine people are. If they are better than Liu Xiao and the others, it would be too easy for them to be killed.

Otherwise, don’t want the food?
Liu Qingcao shook his head and quickly denied it.

If the food was sent out, she would have to take food out from the space again. The more times she did this, the more suspicious anyone would become.

The hot spring villa has spare food. Once it is opened, it will definitely be discovered by General Yang. Right now she cannot release food in such a dangerous place.

These three thousand kilograms of grain must be taken back.

Liu Qingcao gritted her teeth and returned to her room with mixed feelings.

Liu Er and his companions looked at each other, and then stood there silently.

In the room, Liu Qingcao took out a dozen medicine bags from the space, each weighing half a pound. She put the medicine bags into a wooden box and carried it out the door.

Liu Si applied medicine to Liu Xiao, and the two of them went out together. There were six people in the main room at this time. They watched Liu Qingcao coming over with a wooden box in her arms, and they secretly had some guesses in their hearts.

However, everyone who knew the truth kept silent.

Liu Qingcao placed the wooden box on the table with a calm expression, "Here are five packets of itching powder, five packets of laughing powder, and five packets of strong muscle softening powder. This is the antidote."

After saying that, Liu Qingcao looked at the six people and slowly said, "We have to get the food back. We don't know when this heavy snow will stop. We have just started our journey back home. The 1,000 kilograms of food in the kitchen can only sustain us to the outskirts of Changxin Prefecture. The longer we delay, the harder it will be to find food in those houses that have collapsed under the snow. And it's unclear whether the food will be edible if it's covered by ice and snow for a long time."

Liu Xiao and the others looked tense, their brows stained with murderous aura. Liu Qingcao distributed the medicine powder to them one by one, then glanced at Yu Cheng, "Yu Cheng, you stay in the kitchen and watch over the food. We'll go get the food back."

Yu Cheng nodded heavily. He was just a scholar, stronger than other scholars, but if he wanted to fight, he would be easily killed before he could even make a move. Since he couldn't help, he decided not to hold the girl back.

Liu Qingcao, along with Liu Xiao and a few others, walked to the gate in a menacing manner, and then stopped steadily.

"You all have to come back alive." Liu Qingcao looked at the five people seriously and told them. Liu Xiao didn't want to make the girl worry, so he promised her, "Don't worry, girl, we will definitely come back safely."

Liu Qingcao looked at Liu Xiao with a frown on his face.

Liu Xiao was injured not long ago, and the medicine he took was not bad, but it would take time to heal. Now if he went to fight with the thief with his injury, if he was discovered, he would be attacked from behind.

Liu Qingcao sighed secretly in his heart. He couldn't care too much at this critical moment. He just hoped that they could delay until Liu Wu and the others came back.

The five people left through the main gate. After they left, Liu Qingcao also went out through the main gate. Although the effect of her medicine was minimal in the heavy snow, it was still possible.

Five against nine is still too much.

Liu Qingcao quietly went to the place Liu Liu mentioned. At this time, Liu Xiao and his men had already started fighting with the thieves. The refugees in the snow house in front of the gate heard the noise and bravely ran out to check. When they saw the scene, they were so frightened that they used their hands and feet to return to the snow house and hide.

Liu Qingcao looked at the thin and cowardly refugees, pursed her lips and walked to the nearest school.

The refugees watched as a shadow fell in front of the door of the snow house. The refugees inside huddled together shiveringly. Liu Qingcao could hear their rapid breathing even when he was standing outside.

"Don't be afraid, it's not a thief."

The crisp sound of willow grass reached the ears of the refugees, and slowly someone poked his head out from inside.

When he saw that the person coming was Liu Qingcao, he was stunned for a moment before he bent over and came out.

"My benefactor, it's too dangerous outside, you should hide quickly." The refugee glanced quickly towards the fight and reminded Liu Qingcao with an anxious look on his face.

Liu Qingcao felt relieved for a moment and looked at the man in front of her with a smile. Her black eyes were clear and bright, which made people feel trust.

"Big brother, I'm here to ask for your help." Liu Qingcao's eyes were sincere, without any joking.

The man hesitated for a moment, then asked tentatively, "Benefactor, we can't do much with our bodies. If you think I can do it, then tell me."

The man's words sounded very nice, and Liu Qingcao didn't pay attention to the little thoughts behind his words. She spoke directly in a voice that was neither humble nor arrogant.

“You all saw that these people came to steal food. If we have no food, even your two meals a day will be cancelled. My people are fighting with the bandits, and the five of them are having a hard time.

If we don’t find other ways to help them, these grains will definitely not be able to stay.”

The man lowered his head in thought. What the little girl said was right. These refugees had no food. If they were really ignored, they would have a hard time in the future.

If she hadn't said anything about it, they could have pretended not to see it, but now that she has come to their door, it would be of no benefit for them to refuse.

The man could tell the pros and cons clearly, and soon he nodded solemnly, "My benefactor, you must have thought about what to do. Now time is urgent, so tell me what you want to do, and I will pass the message to others."

Liu Qingcao found that this was a person who was not very active. Time was really tight and there was no time to delay.

"It's not a big deal. Just make some snowballs and I'll come over and tell you how to do it. Don't worry, those people won't hurt you easily."

The man opened his mouth, but finally chose to close it.

Those people were very skilled. How could they, a bunch of refugees who couldn't even get enough food, go up to help without getting hurt?

But since the little girl had said so, if he said anything more it would only make people think too much. He had no choice, and it would not be good to make people feel dissatisfied.

"My benefactor, I will go and ask someone to make a snowball right now."

"Go."

Liu Qingcao watched the man's back as he went in, then turned around and left the snow house.

Liu Xiao and the others have already started fighting with others, so she needs to provide more assistance. Only in this way can she relieve their pressure.

Standing in front of the door, Liu Qingcao glanced into the distance, quickly closed the door, and went straight to the room.

Time passed minute by minute, outside the house, the snow was flying everywhere, and human figures were swaying in the heavy snow.

Liu Xiao twisted the hilt of the sword in his hand, and found the right opportunity to pierce the chest of the man opposite. The man was stunned for a moment, and endured the severe pain and slapped him. Feixue was repelled by the palm wind and fell completely on Liu Xiao's shoulder. The force of the palm landed on his shoulder, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood in an instant. The wound on his back was affected, causing him to slow down for a moment.

The man raised a playful smile at the corner of his lips, and without waiting for Liu Xiao to react, the sword in his hand pointed towards Liu Xiao's heart.

Liu Er and his companions were entangled and couldn't free their hands. They caught a glimpse of Liu Xiao from the corner of their eyes, and his eyes were full of anxiety.

"Go to hell." A fierce light flashed in the man's eyes and his tone was crazy.

The biting cold wind blew the person's black hair forward, and bright red blood dripped onto the snow. Spots of blood bloomed and spread, adding a touch of color to this snowy season.

"Oh, you want me to die!" Liu Xiao shouted softly, and regardless of the severe pain in his body, he took out a handful of medicine from his arms and scattered it on the snow.

The white medicinal powder was pushed forward by the wind. It all happened so suddenly that when the man wanted to hold his breath and withdraw, the medicinal powder had already mixed with the wind and snow and poured into his mouth and nose. In less than two breaths, his body suddenly stiffened and he fell straight down from mid-air.

"How could this be?" The man's pupils suddenly widened, and the fear in his eyes was infinitely magnified.

Liu Xiao didn't have time to finish off the other person, so he jumped up to support Liu Er who was being besieged by two people.

Liu Er dealt with two thieves who were as skilled as him for a while. At this moment, veins bulged all over his body, his eyes were bloodshot, and his body had been stretched to the limit.

"Pfft."

"Hiss~" Liu Er groaned, looking at the long sword that was stuck straight into his waist and abdomen, his brows were furrowed and his face showed pain.

Seeing the other man approaching, he tightened the sword in his hand and used his last bit of strength to throw out the medicine bag.

Unfortunately, his hands were too weak and the medicine bag slipped from his fingertips and fell on the snow.

Liu Er glanced sideways, looking regretfully at the yellow oil-paper bag lying alone on the ground, and his eyelids drooped down finally.

He lost all his strength and fell from mid-air. When he closed his eyes, he saw a long sword pointing at his throat.

"Liu Er!" Liu Xiao's voice was trembling and hoarse, with bloodshot eyes. He looked at the deadly sword and flew towards Liu Er regardless of anything, allowing the thief to get close to him with the cold sword tip.

When Liu San, Liu Si and Liu Liu heard the voice, their hearts trembled violently, but they did not dare to stop what they were doing.

"Throw it to me!"

Liu Qingcao's heart pounded as he watched the scene in mid-air, and then he gritted his teeth and gave orders to the refugees around him.

Upon hearing the order, the refugees used all their strength to throw the snowballs in their hands at the thieves in the air.

The sudden snowball startled the people in the fight. Liu San came to his senses immediately, swung his sword and approached his opponent, throwing the medicine powder in his hand without hesitation. As soon as the medicine powder came out, he instantly withdrew.

Liu Si and Liu Liu found an opportunity and followed closely.

When the fighting thieves saw the packet of medicine powder, they drew back their swords, but it was a pity that Fengxue was not on their side.

Suddenly, snowballs filled the sky and powder floated towards the thief.

"Stand back!" Liu Qingcao saw what Liu San and the others were doing and spoke quickly.

The refugees were throwing the balls vigorously, but when they heard these words, they froze and looked confused. However, when they remembered the instructions they received when they set out, they immediately followed Liu Qingcao's arrangements.

The refugees were about to retreat five meters when they heard creepy noises coming from far and near.

“Hahahaha, hahaha, hahaha, no, hahaha, I hahaha…”

"Shh, it's itchy, so itchy, what the hell is this!"

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

"Oh!"

One after another, people fell on the snow in weird postures, making a snow pit on the snow. Some of the people in the snow pit were motionless, some were holding their bodies and scratching and rubbing frantically, and from some snow pits, laughter as if they were about to die could be heard continuously.

When the refugees saw this scene, they all shuddered.

"My benefactor, what happened to them?"
Before the refugee could finish his words, Liu Qingcao had already rushed out at a rapid pace.

Liu Xiao and Liu Er are in danger, she has to race against time to save them.

Liu Qingcao came in front of Liu Xiaolou Er, and as soon as she squatted down, a warm liquid splashed on her face unexpectedly. Liu Qingcao did not look at what happened next to her. She wiped her face and wiped off the blood beads on her eyelashes that affected her vision.

Liu Xiao lay exhausted on the snow, with not a single piece of healthy flesh on his body, and the same was true for Liu Er.

Liu Qingcao took the pulse of the two people. Although they were still alive, their pulses were weak.

Fortunately, it was not too late and they were rescued in time.

He took out two porcelain bottles from the space through his sleeves, unplugged the bottles and quickly poured the liquid into the two people's mouths.

When Liu Qingcao saw the two of them swallowing, he felt relieved and sat down on the snow.

so close!

They almost died!
