Chapter 117: Su Yun Appears and Can Kill Hades (1)
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“Is it poker?” Xu Jiajia could not be sure if the palm-sized thing she saw from the corner of her eye was a poker card.
Just now, under the illumination of the surrounding steam lamps, she only saw something fly to her feet from the corner of her eye and stab diagonally behind the chair. However, because she was controlled by the chair, she could not turn around at all. She could only turn her head with difficulty and vaguely see an object.
Could it be… Su Yun?
When this guess appeared in her mind, even Xu Jiajia was shocked. When she thought of poker cards, Xu Jiajia immediately thought of Su Yun, who had been throwing cards live streaming. This was because poker cards seemed to have become synonymous with Su Yun.
“Could it be Su Yun? Is that mysterious person Su Yun?’ This thought involuntarily appeared in Xu Jiajia’s mind. Moreover, she could not help but think that Su Yun had silently killed Gang Zi and the others with poker cards. “No! Impossible!”
However, Xu Jiajia quickly dismissed this unrealistic thought because this guess was unbelievable. In the livestream, Su Yun’s throwing cards could cut cucumbers and even embed wooden stakes.
This was completely different from being able to kill.
But from the corner of her eye just now, if it was really a poker card, how could she explain it? In order to verify her guess, Xu Jiajia had been trying her best to turn around and see clearly. However, on the other side, the last trace of calm in Pig Head Rong’s heart had completely disintegrated because of Gang Zi’s death.
Even now, he did not know what the killing weapon was. This made him feel even more terrified and afraid of the unknown.
“Old Ghost, don’t just stand there. That person must be nearby.”
When Old Ghost heard this, he returned to his senses. He retracted his incredulous and terrified gaze when he looked at Gang Zi’s corpse. Then, he took out a sharp knife from his waist and quickly walked to Xu Jiajia according to the original plan.
Without any explanation, Old Ghost pressed the sharp knife against Xu Jiajia’s smooth neck. The coldness coming from the blade made Xu Jiajia tremble. Even Xu Jiajia could not help but tremble in fear. She was afraid that the other party would accidentally kill her. She could no longer be bothered to determine if it was a poker card.
What she had to do was to break free from the rope that bound her as much as possible. Only then could she mediate in a desperate situation and exchange for a trace of life.
Pig Head Rong was not stupid either. He immediately hid in a safe place and glared at Xu Jiajia not far away. Then, he shouted angrily, “I know you’re here to save this woman, right? Now, this knife is pressed against her neck. I’ll count to three. If vou don’t come out. I guarantee that you can see the state of her death!”
As Pig Head Rong spoke, he acutely observed his surroundings. However, there was no movement around. It was quiet, making Pig Head Rong look more like a clown. Could it be that his judgment was wrong? The other party was not Su Yun, nor was he here to save this woman?
“One!”
Even if he had misjudged, Pig Head Rong did not intend to be long-winded. He knew that he had to make a choice at this moment and immediately began to count. This voice was sharp and mixed with Pig Head Rong’s anger. In this quiet forest, it had an extremely strong penetrating power.
On the other side, hearing that Pig Head Rong had started to threaten him with her life, Xu Jiajia naturally did not dare to take this risk. She was not sure if the mysterious person was here to save her. She was also not sure if Old Ghost would attack after Pig Head Rong counted to three.
Hence, Xu Jiajia was filled with nervousness. If she wanted to break free from the rope without being noticed by Old Ghost, Xu Jiajia had to make her movements even lighter.
Fortunately, Old Ghost was also nervous at this moment. His attention was not on Xu Jiajia. Instead, he kept looking around to guard against a sneak attack by the mysterious person. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Xu Jiajia used her slender fingers to gently remove the blade hidden in her sleeve. She turned her wrist to the maximum and began to cut the rope.
As Pig Head Rong and the rest did not know what it meant to have tender feelings for women, the rope that tied Xu Jiajia was also made of hemp rope that had been soaked in water. The rough hemp rope kept rubbing against the fair skin on Xu Jiajia’s wrist. This was also the biggest reason why Xu Jiajia was stopped from cutting the rope. She pursed her lips gently and endured the pain of friction from her wrist as she increased the speed of her hand.
Xu Jiajia had to keep an eye on Old Ghost from the corner of her eye. As long as he looked over, she had to stop what she was doing. It was really time to race against time because Pig Head Rong had already impatiently counted to the second number!
“F*ck, a scoundrel dares to snipe behind my back. He doesn’t dare to come out, right?” Pig Head Rong also realized that the other party seemed to be very calm. Of course, it was also possible that he had made a mistake and did not take this woman seriously.
Seeing that his plan was about to fail, Pig Head Rong could not help but burn with anger.. “F*ck, you killed so many of my people, and now you don’t even dare to show your face? Aren’t you going to save your woman? Or is she blind to have taken a fancy to a softie?”
