Stunning Poisonous Doctor Princess - Chapter 985
Chapter 985 Revenge for His Wife
Lin Mengya paid all her attention to the outside.
No matter what happened, it would not escape her eyes.
As time went by, Lin Mengya’s worry and anxiety gradually became stronger and stronger.
Zhao Guangda and the others had not shown up. It meant that they were still chasing after the remaining people outside.
Before she left, she had secretly told Qinghu that if he was in danger, find a way to leave the clue to those people, indicating to them that she had returned to Fort Naratha.
Since Zhao Guangda had seen Xia Bin’s despicable behavior, he was unlikely to trust Xia Bin.
To prevent those people from entering Fort Naratha again, Xia Bin would most probably deny that Lin Mengya was right here.
Let Xia Bin and Zhao Guangda fight each other fiercely to buy time for Baisu and Qinghu. This was what Lin Mengya wanted.
After about a few hours, even Lin Mengya felt a little restless, some noise outside was finally sounded again.
It sounded like someone was shouting in the distance, but Lin Mengya couldn’t hear it clearly because she was in a remote place.
In a short while, someone came to the courtyard where she stayed and called the two strong bandits at the door.
“Hurry up! Chief called us to go over there!”
The two bandits, who were watching Lin Mengya, did not dare to delay. After locking the door, they ran forward hurriedly with their companion.
Lin Mengya immediately got out of bed and looked out through the crack of the window.
It seemed that something unexpected must have happened outside. Otherwise, Xia Bin would not have asked the two guards to go over there.
However, Lin Mengya had no idea who had arrived. Was it Zhao Guangda or any other chief from the other four mountains?
No matter which one it was, it was good news for her.
It was within Lin Mengya’s expectation, but it was more chaotic than she had expected.
Xia Bin stood atop the sentry post, looking down from above, but his face was gloomy.
Without his notice, many people had gathered outside the gate, and they were all his old acquaintances.
Xia Bin narrowed his eyes, and his gaze swept through the crowd.
As expected, those who had been keeping an eye on his position and wanted to replace him were all there.
They usually did their business respectively, but why did they come to Xia Bin’s place at the same time today?
Relying on Fort Naratha’s various advantages, Xia Bin could do whatever he wanted at will in Mount Five Heroes.
More importantly, the other four chiefs were on guard against each other and ostracized each other, which made Xia Bin’s Fort Naratha the head of all the bandit villages.
Xia Bin did not expect that the other four chiefs had gathered together, which was difficult for him to resist them.
Xia Bin cursed in his mind, “Damn it! “What the hell is going on?”
“Chief Xia, we are here to talk about the old days with you. Is it how your Fort Naratha treats guests?”
At the gate, a burly man riding on a horse revealed a seemingly simple and honest smile.
However, the shiny steel knife on his back was flashing with a cold light. It seemed that this was a fierce and malicious man, too.
Xia Bin’s expression did not change as he smiled sinisterly.
“Chief Chang, Fort Naratha is a small place, and it can’t accommodate your group of big figures. If you’d like to come to visit, you can do it yourself another day. Otherwise, you will scare the villagers here with your large number of people.”
Even though Xia Bin was at a disadvantage in headcounts, he was not afraid.
In his opinion, the other four groups of bandits were just a crowd of riffraff. Once coming into a fight, they would probably retreat.
At worst, they would turn against each other, but Xia Bin was not afraid of that.
However, Chang Hu just snorted coldly and exchanged looks with the other chiefs in secret.
Apart from the four of them, no one in the mountains knew that they used to be buddies who had gone through life and death together on the battlefield.
Their team, including the officer and other soldiers, had all died during that battle. Only the four of them had escaped from death. Later, they occupied the mountains and became the bandit chiefs of Mount Five Heroes.
They were well aware of the games among the mountain bandits and local officers and soldiers. To protect themselves respectively, the four of them had to pretend to be against each other.
This time, they could gather here justifiably because of a woman.
They were buddies who had gone through life-and-death trials together. How could they abandon their brotherhood?
Moreover, they had been tired after decades of fighting and killing. It happened that they learned about this good business last night, so they decided to make it before washing their hands of robbery.
In addition, that damned sissy, Xia Bin, had secretly plotted against many of them. They had to take revenge on him!
“Tsk, if you only have this much courage, how can you be a hero in the mountains? I’d like to advise you to take your men and enter the palace to be eunuchs.”
Another chief named Sun Zhuang began to ridicule Xia Bin, too.
Everyone burst into laughter at these words. Xia Bin was gnashing his teeth in hatred, but he did not dare to open the gate to provoke them.
Xia Bin cursed in his mind, “Damn it! “I’ve never been humiliated like this before.
“The damn woman pissed me off first! “Then, these sworn enemies came to provoke me!
“Sooner or later, I will kill all of them!”
“Oh, Chief Sun. You are also here. As recalled, three years ago, my men went down the mountain to have fun with a few women. I heard that your old lover was among them. I don’t mean to criticize you, but you are too stingy. You didn’t even give her a piece of jewelry. My men were kind and took good care of her. But unfortunately, she died because of bad luck.”
Xia Bin’s tone was vicious. Sun Zhuang’s face turned gloomy.
That woman was his childhood sweetheart before he joined the army. She had been waiting for Sun Zhuang for many years and becoming an old lady. Finally, Sun Zhuang came back.
To protect her, Sun Zhuang did not take her up the mountain, but they got married in private.
Sun Zhuang had hidden this secret from his men and sneaked down the mountain for two years after he got married.
However, they did not expect that the bandits from Fort Naratha ran into him and his wife.
Even though Sun Zhuang had sent his men to secretly take care of his wife, Xia Bin was so vicious and merciless that he led hundreds of people to sneak down the mountain to kill Sun Zhuang’s wife. Sun Zhuang’s dozens of men could resist.
If one of his men had not risked his life to break out of the encirclement and informed Sun Zhuang, he probably could not even have seen the whole body of his wife.
That night, Sun Zhuang rushed to his wife’s courtyard with his men regardless of anything else.
As soon as he entered the door, a tragic scene came into his sight.
His men, who were assigned to protect his wife, had been chopped into pieces for a long time.
In the main room, his poor wife was cut open in the belly, with her body naked.
Sun Zhuang went crazy at the scene and wanted to fight Xia Bin to the death.
If his men had not desperately stopped him, he would have fallen into Xia Bin’s trap.
After that, he personally collected the body of his beloved wife. The once beautiful, kind, and virtuous woman had been ruined beyond recognition.
Moreover, she was pregnant with their unborn child.
Even the coroner, who was used to seeing the dead, shook his head and sighed a few times, “It’s too miserable.”
From then on, Sun Zhuang and Xia Bin became sworn enemies.
Today, with the help of his former buddies, his deceased wife could rest in peace.
“Cut the crap. I will make you pay the price today!”
Sun Zhuang drew his bow and shot an arrow straight at Xia Bin.
Xia Bin was shocked, but he randomly reached out to grab the man beside him and placed him in the front.
The arrow pierced through that man’s chest, and Xia Bin took a few steps back before he stopped.
Xia Bin looked at those people outside the gate with an ashen face. It seemed that they were here for a real fight today!
“Xia Bin, I will let you pay back with your blood today!”
Sun Zhuang roared and rushed forward. The others did not dare to delay and rode their horses forward one after another.
The seemingly sturdy gate of the fort seemed to be on the verge of collapse under the siege of over a thousand people.
“Hang on there! No one is allowed to escape!”
Xia Bin stamped his feet in anger, but there were only a few hundred people in his place.
Xia Bin thought, “Sun Zhuang merely lost a woman. It is not a big deal. How dare he plot against me? All of them deserve to die!”
“Chief Xia, we probably can not hold on outside. How about you go first? Where there is life, there is hope!”
The advisor, the vice chief of Fort Naratha, who had been following Xia Bin for years, whispered anxiously in Xia Bin’s ear.
“That makes sense. Bring that woman here. As long as we have her as a hostage, we’ll have a chance to make a comeback. I’ll go to the secret passage in the back mountain and wait for you there.”
Xia Bin did not care about the mountain bandits’ lives in his place at all. Since they could not stop the other four groups of bandits, he would have to first leave today.
It was just a small village. However, Xia Bin’s things were not something that anyone could touch.
A vicious smile appeared on Xia Bin’s lips. He thought, “No one is allowed to take what I, Xia Bin, abandoned!”
Seeing that the gate had been smashed open from the outside, Xia Bin quickly made his way toward the back mountain.
Hearing the sounds of fighting and killing from outside, Lin Mengya was a little excited. It seemed that the four groups of bandits had arrived.
There were quite a few people in Xia Bin’s place, but based on his cold-hearted and selfish personality, it was hard to tell whether he would run away or not.
Shortly after, Lin Mengya saw a figure sneaking into her courtyard and closing the door.
Lin Mengya immediately recognized that this was the man who had been by Xia Bin’s side.
He came here at this time and probably had nothing good for Lin Mengya.
Lin Mengya gripped the dagger Qinghu had stuffed into her hand earlier and stood behind the door quietly.
The door lock was opened up, and the man pushed open the door.
Lin Mengya seized the opportunity and stabbed the dagger below the man’s ribs with great force.
“Ah!”
The man let out a terrible cry. Lin Mengya immediately jumped aside and looked at the man in front of her warily.
This stab was not a fatal blow but enough for him to suffer.
The man’s face twisted in pain. He leaned against the door and then fell to the ground.
“Help… Help me…”
The man didn’t even dare to breathe. He only let out a weak cry for help,
Lin Mengya tried hard to remain calm. She took a step forward and said in a low voice.
“If you wish me to save your life, tell me the truth obediently. What’s going on outside? And where’s Xia Bin? If you dare to tell a lie, I’ll kill you right here!”
Seeing that the woman in front of him was calm and composed, the man realized that she was powerful, so he reported everything in detail honestly without delay.
