Chapter 779: Sneaking around ——2
Chapter 779: Sneaking around ——2
------------------While Ye Liu rushed after the kids with Lang, the villagers from the Big Stone village hid themselves further. They were hiding on the other side of the mountain at the top of the trees, this area of the mountain was separated from the main mountain and was not owned by any village which was why they were able to sneak inside this mountain without getting caught.
Originally they wanted to sneak inside the Big River village but who would have thought that the news about their atrocious actions will reach this village so soon and they will create such a big fuss? They were protecting their mers and children like they were protecting gems and money, what were they trying to do?
In the end, because of the high level of security, they could only sneak inside this small mountain and keep an eye on the big village river village.
Yu Jie looked at the young children who rushed out of the house that was sitting on the outskirts of the village and licked her lips which were parched and dry. Such a big house there must be enough food and clean water to drink right?
" Look at those kids," while Yang Jie was looking at the house which seemed even bigger than their village head, the woman next to her muttered greedily as her eyes flashed with viciousness. " So plump and healthy ..gulp… especially that young baby, his arms are as thick as louts root. If we get him we won\'t have to worry about food for the next three weeks, he will suffice for almost a month if we take care of his body well."
" You are right about that Qing Qing," said the other woman as she nodded along with Qi Qing\'s words agreeing with what the latter had said, " These three kids will prove to be a good feast if we catch them, the oldest one can\'t even stand and that mer —— if we move and grab them now——"
Just as they were speaking Lang who was running after Ye Liu and the rest turned to look straight at them, scaring the three women whose complexion was yellow and their skin looked malnourished from sickness.
For two minutes Lang continued to stare at them before she looked at Ye Liu and then snatched a dagger out of her waist and threw it straight in the direction of the small mountain. Lang\'s body had been nourished by the spiritual water and she ate meat and grains three times a day, her body was a lot sturdier than before along with her senses, she of course could not hear what the women were talking about clearly but she did hear something about children and mers what was more the voices were coming from the distant mountain that did not come under any village which raised her suspicions.
The dagger that was sent flying towards the three women did not slow down or budge until it was stuck deep in the tree trunk. The three women looked at the dagger that was sticking out just a few inches above their heads and shivered.
" Sister Yang, did she see us? Looks like there is a martial artist living in the village," Qi Qing spoke as she rubbed her arms, they were good with fighting when it comes to using hands and poles but if they were to fight with martial arts, she was afraid that she will not be able to do it!
Even Yang Jie looked at Lang\'s back hatefully before she turned to look at the dagger and gritted her teeth as she spat out, " We will take a kid from the big mountain village tonight, forget about this village for now."
Seeing that there was no chance of snatching the kids and mers from the big river village, the three women could only turn around and leave.
Lang had no idea that her hunch was a hundred and ten per cent correct, she rushed after the kids and then stopped them from running out of the village.
" Gotcha," she said as she picked up Yu Mai who was running towards the main entrance, but even though she stopped Yu Mai, the latter still continued to move his feet as if he could rush to Shen Li as long as he moved his feet harder.
Seeing him like this Lang was so amused that she patted him on his head and said, " Master Mai, do not worry. Your eldest brother-in-law is not as weak as you think, he will be fine."
" But…But what if that bad woman hits him?" Yu Mai was not far from the main entrance of the village, he could see Shen Hanxing and from the ugly scowl on the face of Shen Hanxing which was quite similar to that of his boss, he had already decided that Shen Hanxing was a bad woman.
His boss also used to sneer at him like this before she hit him!
" Heh, if she tries to do that then that will be the last thing for which she will raise her hand," scoffed Lang, as she raised her head and looked at Shen Hanxing. Her husband and she had been treated like family members by Shen Li there was no way she was going to let someone like Shen Hanxing hurt him!
