Chapter 75
75 Vicious Killer
Blood Thirteen had never thought that his first mission would fail at the teeth of two wild boars instead of in the hands of the mission target.
It all started a few days ago.
At that time, he received a special mission. The other party asked him to kill a four-year-old girl.
He did not know her name or what she looked like. He only knew that she was thrown into the deep mountains 300 kilometers away and was asked to follow this clue.
From the mission point of departure to 300 kilometers away, he had already crossed the territory of the Great Chang Kingdom. After the closely connected mountain range, the land would belong to the Prosperous North Kingdom.
Prosperous North Kingdom was mainly for hunting and had already submitted to Great Chang many years ago. The mountain range in the middle was still considered peaceful.
“That little girl is a little mysterious. I heard that a few experts went to assassinate her previously, but they all returned empty-handed. You have to be careful!” Before leaving, the branch head reminded Blood Thirteen, “Although the reward of 1,000 taels is generous, your life is more important. Remember to save your life at the critical moment!”
These words made Blood Thirteen feel that something was wrong. Could she be some demoness?
She was only four years old and he heard that she did not have anyone protecting her. Was there a need to mobilize so many people?
Their Blood Rain Pavilion was at least ranked 138th in the martial arts world!
Blood Thirteen carefully studied the map and realized that all the way north, there was a Yongding County. If he cut through a small village in this county city, he could walk faster.
He thought about his peerless martial arts and felt that there was no problem at all, so he went happily.
On the first day he entered the mountain range, he realized that the trees in the mountain were taller than he had imagined. Even though the sun was shining outside, the inside was gloomy and he could not tell the direction.
He was lost. After wandering around for most of the day, he defeated three wolves, killed a bear, and scared away a tiger. In the end, he was injured by two wild boars.
“I’m finished…” When Blood Thirteen fell off the cliff because of the wild boar, he only muttered in his heart, “My life is over!”
When he woke up, he looked into a pair of big round eyes.
No, it was a pair of small, round eyes.
The owner of the small eyes was dressed in a rose-red floral gown. There were flowers of the same color on her head, and she had two small hair buns tied up.
Her face was red and she was a little thin, but she did not look insipid.
She was clearly dressed like a village girl, but because she was young, she looked a little simple and lively.
It was a little girl.
“Uncle Dumpling, you’re awake!” Little Ah Yu blinked and skipped out the door with her short legs.
She shouted at Hu Xiaotong, who was drying the herbs, “Brother Xiaotong, Brother Xiaotong, Uncle Dumpling is awake!”
Blood Thirteen: ???
Uncle Dumpling, it can’t be me, right?
He was about to move when he realized that he was wrapped up in a ball.
A young man in a smoky green turban rushed in and held his hand down.
“Don’t move. All the bones in your body are broken. Whether you can recover or not will depend on the next few days,” Hu Xiaotong said unhappily. “I wrapped you with the only rags left in our family. If you dirty them again, I won’t be able to change them for you.”
Blood Thirteen opened his mouth. “I…”
He realized that he was extremely thirsty, and his throat was especially hoarse.
It did not feel like him at all.
Little Ah Yu had heard yesterday that a person had been injured by a wild boar in the village. Everyone went to take a look.
However, at that time, her family did not allow her to go. They felt that it was too bloody and were afraid that she would have nightmares at night.
The next day, Wang Wulang and the others could not sit still anymore and secretly pulled Little Ah Yu over to take a look.
She only saw that he was already wrapped up tightly.
“Isn’t this exactly the same as grandma’s dumplings?” Little Ah Yu remembered the words that Wang Wulang had blurted out, so she called him Uncle Dumpling.
“Uncle Dumpling, are you in pain? It must be very painful. When I fell to the ground, my butt hurt.” Little Ah Yu craned her neck and looked at Blood Thirteen with a pained expression.
[Kid, don’t give him any water!]
Meatball was really afraid of her. This brat seemed to be born unable to keep things. If she had anything, she wanted to give it to others.
If she had been 15 or 16 years old when it came, she would not have been so generous.
She was still a child after all.
“But… Uncle Dumpling is in so much pain.” Little Ah Yu poked her fingers.
[You might as well give it to that little brother of yours!] Meatball said angrily. [At least he made a wreath for you yesterday.]
Qin Huai originally did not want to make it, and he had never done so before. However, Little Ah Yu wanted to come and watch the show. In order to coax her, Qin Huai picked up the wreath on the ground and silently fixed it up.
However, his skills were really lacking so Little Ah Yu took it back and played with it for a while before it fell apart.
At this moment, Hu Xiaotong had already brought in a bowl of medicine that had been brewed long ago. When Little Ah Yu smelled it, she immediately covered her nose.
“Brother Tong, what is this? It stinks!” Little Ah Yu frowned.
Her nose was too sharp. The smell of the medicinal herbs was too stimulating for her.
“This is medicine. He’s injured and has to drink the medicine. Otherwise, he won’t recover.” Hu Xiaotong brought the medicine over.
Seeing Blood Thirteen looking at him, Hu Xiaotong said, “We didn’t take anything from you. You can pay for the medicine when you recover. Also, my father said that your injuries are serious. When you’re slightly better, you should go to the county city to take a look. Our family might not be able to treat you.”
Blood Thirteen felt strange. He felt that it was quite strange to see these two people.
A little girl was nagging at him, and a young man came to help her with the medicine.
They had never met before.
Treating illnesses required a lot of money, right? He only had 100 taels in his pocket. He did not know if it was enough.
Sigh, he had to recover quickly. After he recovered a little, he would kill that little girl.
That would be a thousand taels.
Blood Thirteen opened his mouth with difficulty and drank a bowl of bitter medicine from Hu Xiaotong’s hand.
That was really a bitter and disgusting medicine.
Just as he felt uncomfortable, his mouth was suddenly stuffed with something.
Blood Thirteen was shocked and wanted to vomit in fear.
In the end, he realized that there was a sour and sweet juice flowing out on the tip of his tongue.
Little Ah Yu’s eyes were like beautiful crescents as she smiled, revealing her white teeth. She said in a soft voice, “Uncle Dumpling, this fruit is delicious! Don’t be unhappy after eating it!”
With that, she stretched out another finger and tapped Blood Thirteen’s frown.
“Don’t frown. Mother said that if you frown often, you’ll become an old man!”
Blood Thirteen was stunned and did not react.
As for Little Ah Yu, she had already skipped out.
There were only two fruits left in her bag. She could not share them with Uncle Dumpling anymore, so she had to run away quickly, lest she could not help but share them again.
These fruits were picked by Uncle Chi Jia from a tree. No one else could pick them!
Just as Little Ah Yu ran out of Doctor Hu’s courtyard, she saw Qin Huai standing under a locust tree in the distance with his hands behind his back.
The locust tree had already pulled out its sprouts. A few butterflies came out of nowhere and flew around Qin Huai, making him look more childish.
“Little Brother, are you here to play with Ah Yu?”
Qin Huai looked at her and seemed to be deep in thought.
Just then, another little butterfly flew over.
