Chapter 636: A bloody fight
"Stop." The soldier said.
Then he quickened his pace and caught up closely.
Xida was just an eight-year-old girl. Knowing that the other party had seen through her flaw, she ran away, thinking only of running to her brother so that he could protect her and keep their good luck.
Otherwise, if the other party caught her and searched her body, the ruby would fall into their hands.
But the soldier was tall and had long legs. With a few quick steps, he grabbed Xida's hair with a vicious look on his face.
"Hand the things over. Don't think that you will be blessed to enjoy them just because you picked up a good item. If you can't keep it, you might as well hand it over to Uncle Yin, and he can give you some benefits."
"Otherwise, it's a dead end."
"Let me go, let me go. I don't understand what you are saying." Xida struggled desperately. The other person's hand was so strong that veins on her forehead were pulled out.
"It's hard to persuade a dying ghost with kind words. Since you don't know what's good for you, I won't be polite."
The soldier slapped Xida hard in the face. Xida's thin body could not withstand such force. He rolled to the ground, blood flowing from his ears, his head felt dizzy, and he almost fainted.
A ruby also fell out of his arms, as bright as blood and so conspicuous.
The soldier's eyes suddenly lit up.
I originally thought that this girl might have picked up a good piece of jade, but I didn't expect it to be such a priceless treasure.
If they fall into his hands, the whole family, young and old, will not have to worry about their lives for the rest of their lives. They can also leave here forever and go to the most prosperous place in Puchen Country to enjoy wealth and glory.
Who would want to stay here and suffer, being ordered around all day long?
Xida regained some consciousness and crawled towards Ruby indomitable. The soldier grinned and stepped hard on the back of her hand.
"Little bastard, this thing was originally given to me by Naga, but you just saw it first."
"You're still being stubborn with me."
"Whatever I see first is mine. No one has ever bought this mountain." Xida stretched out his mouth to bite the other person's foot.
The soldier kicked her hard again, sending her flying half a foot away.
Then he leaned over and picked up the ruby.
The sun's rays cast a shadow on him. Sensing someone coming from behind, the soldier turned around slowly and vigilantly.
Before he could see the other person clearly, a stone hit him on the head with such force that it made a whistling sound in the wind, leaving him no room for maneuver.
Blood splattered, the soldier's head was broken and bleeding, and he staggered and fell down.
"Brother." When Xida saw Danso, she burst into tears and threw herself into his arms.
"I found a ruby, and this person wants to steal it from me. How mean."
"Don't be afraid, my brother is here and has already killed him."
Danso patted her back gently and reached out to pick up the ruby.
It is as big as half an egg and the whole thing is bright red. Only the royal family can afford a stone of this size and quality.
But Suo stared at the ruby for a long time. He had had countless beautiful dreams. In his dreams, he and his sister picked up the gem, made a fortune, bought a house in the city, and lived a carefree life in the future.
But the rubies seen in reality are brighter and more dazzling. They should be smaller than the ones picked up by the man twenty years ago, but their color and texture are better. It is so good that it is hard to imagine that there are gems with better color in the world. They are as dazzling as the clouds in the sky. I am afraid it is worth more than one million taels.
But Suo held the ruby and checked it several times to make sure he was not dreaming. His hands were trembling slightly.
He cleaned up the blood and wounds on Xida's body and said, "Sister, we don't have to worry anymore."
"Come on, let's go home and hide this gem better so that no one can find it."
But Sou could not hide the gem anywhere on his body, so he looked at their shoes again, took off one of Sidda's shoes, wrapped the gem again in leaves, and put it back in the shoe.
"It hurts a little, bear with it, brother will carry you back."
Danso carried Xida on his back, his steps brisk and his eyes shining.
Soon my sister will be able to leave here. She won’t have to drink rice porridge and eat wild vegetables every day, and she won’t have to see people die every day.
"Brother, who should we sell the gems to? What if they just rob us and don't even pay us?" Xida said.
But Suo paused. Yes, this was a big problem. In this bloody land, it was not enough to find the treasure, but one also had to have the ability to get it safely.
"Think about this when you get home."
"Why don't we sell it to Miss Shui? Miss Shui is obviously a rich person. If she is willing to buy it, we will be safe. We can also ask her to leave here quickly and not be targeted by those people." Xida said.
Dan Suo thought for a moment and said, "Okay, then let's ask the water girl if she wants the gem."
The water girl is looking at the mine, so she can definitely afford this gem.
After a while, the soldier's companion came over. They were patrolling together, but his companion had just gone to the toilet, and the soldier was walking around when he saw Xida.
Seeing the soldier lying on the ground with a bloody head, his companions were shocked and rushed down the mountain, grabbing the soldier's shoulders and shaking him.
"Wake up, wake up."
After shaking for a long time without any movement, I reached out to touch my neck and there seemed to be a little intermittent beating, very weak.
"Wake up and tell me what happened." The companion shook a few more times, then changed his method. He took off the kettle and poured the water inside on the soldier's head.
The soldier finally opened his eyes with difficulty and saw his companions in front of him. He finally remembered what had happened before.
"What happened? Who attacked you? How dare they attack even Uncle Yin's men?"
The soldier opened his mouth, but he was already dying and it was difficult for him to utter a single word.
But even if he was destined to die, he would not let that girl have an easy life. Why should she get the chance to make a fortune while he has to die at such a young age?
He gathered all his strength, stiffened his neck, and stared with bloodshot eyes.
"S-Sida."
"Xida, that eight-year-old girl, was it her who did it?" His companions found it unbelievable. How could a little girl jump up and hit a soldier on the head?
"Ruby."
The soldier struggled to utter a few more words, then his neck twisted, his feet kicked, and he was completely dead.
"What, ruby? Excuse me, is it ruby?"
After calling out several times, the soldier remained silent, his eyes wide open, as if he had died with his eyes open.
His companion stood up and thought carefully, realizing that he had heard correctly, it was ruby.
What the soldier meant was that the little girl had a ruby on her hand, and he paid the price of his life to fight for it, which shows that the ruby must be very valuable.
