Zhang Wuji hurriedly went over to support Yang Buhui. At the same time, he heard the footsteps of others entering the forest. Yang Buhui was terrified when she heard the sounds of other people and hid herself in Zhang Wuji's arms.
Zhang Wuji raised his head to take a look, but was calmed, shouting, "It's Mr. Jian, Mr. Xue."
Five people had entered the forest. One was KongDong's Jian Jie, and another was Huashan's Xue Gongyuan along with two of his martial brothers. All these people were healed by Zhang Wuji. The last person was an heroic looking approximately twenty year old youth with a broad forehead whom Zhang Wuji had never met before. Jian Jie made a "Heng!", saying, "Brother Zhang, you're here also? What happened to these two people?" As he was saying this, he pointed to the two people on the ground.
Zhang Wuji indignantly told the story of what happened, ending with, "They even dared to eat people, aren't they outlaws?"
Jian Jie was staring at Yang Buhui, when all of a sudden saliva dripped from the corner of his mouth, so he licked his lips, saying, "Damn, for five days and five nights I haven't had a grain of rice in my stomach, only eating some tree bark and grass…..En, fine skin and meat, fatty and tender…"
Zhang Wuji saw that Jian Jie had a fire in his eyes, looking like a hungry wolf, with his mouth hanging wide open and his teeth gleaming. He really looked scary, so Zhang Wuji hugged Yang Buhui close to him. Xue Gongyuan asked, "Where is this girl's mother?"
Zhang Wuji thought in his heart: "If I say that Auntie died, they'll have even more evil thoughts." So he said, "Heroine Ji went out to buy some rice, she'll be back soon." Yang Buhui suddenly said, "No, My mom flew up to the sky!"
When Jian Jie and Xue Gongyuan heard the two of them speaking, they knew Ji Xiaofu had already died. Xue Gongyuan laughed coldly, saying "Buying rice? If you find a grain of rice within these five hundred kilometers, you'll really have skills." Jian Jie shot a look at Xue Gongyuan, and the two suddenly jumped towards them. Jian Jie's two hands grabbed ahold of Zhang Wuji's shoulders. Xue Gongyuan's left hand covered Yang Buhui's mouth, and with his right hand he picked her up.
Zhang Wuji was startled and shouted, "What are you guys doing?" Jian Jie laughed and said, "In these thousand kilometers in Fengyang province, I've been so hungry I can't stand it anymore. This girl isn't related to you, so we'll split a portion with you later." Zhang Wuji angrily insulted them: "You wrongly claim to be heroes, how can you bully a small orphan? If this gets out, how can you even claim to be human?"
Jian Jie flew into a rage, grabbed him with his left hand and hit him twice on the face, saying, "We'll kill you small beast along with her, we originally thought one small lamb might not've been enough."
Zhang Wuji had just taken care of the two villagers easily, but up against Kongdong's martial artists who had learned decades of martial arts, Zhang Wuji was easily captured and his struggles were in vain.
Xue Gongyuan's two martial brothers took some rope, tying up the two children. Zhang Wuji knew he would have no good luck today, and furiously regretted that he had saved these peoples' lives. People's hearts change quickly; who would know that these people would repay kindness with evil?
Jian Jie said, "Little beast, you healed this old man's head wound, so you've done some good for me, right? You must be hating me in your heart, right?" Zhang Wuji said: "Isn't this paying kindness with evil? I have no debts or business with you, if I didn't help you, how would you four have recovered from those strange diseases?"
Xue Gongyuan laughed and said, "Young man Zhang, after we were injured we've displayed this ugly attitude, we've even let you see it. If this becomes public, it'll be hard for us to live. Today we're starving, if we have no fresh meat in our stomachs, it'll also be hard for us to live. Why don't you save us to the end, save us one more time." Jian Jie was ferocious and scary, but this Xue Gongyuan had a smiling appearance and was cunning and treacherous.
Zhang Wuji, seeing them couldn't help but feel his heart freeze in terror, and shouted loudly: "I'm in Wudang, this sister is part of Emei, if you harm us two, will the Five Heroes of Wudang and MieJue Shitai forgive you?"
Jian Jie was startled and made an "e" sound, feeling that there was some truth in his words – it was not a good idea to provoke Wudang and Emei. Xue Gongyuan laughed and said: "Here only the sky and ground will know, and you and I will know. Once you're in our stomachs, go grumble to Zhang SanFeng."
Jian Jie guffawed, saying: "I'm so hungry fire is about to come out of my stomach, even if you were my brother or son, I'd eat your skin and bones." He turned around and said to Xue Gongyuan's martial brothers: "Quickly bring some fire and cook some soup, what are you waiting for?" Those two got the pot; one of them went to the creek to get water, and the other went to start the fire.
Zhang Wuji said, "Mr. Xue, those two people are already dead, if you're hungry and want to eat people, wouldn't eating them be good?" Xue Gongyuan laughed and said, "These two men are just skin and bones, they're not only old and tough, but hard and stinky, who wouldn't eat tender lamb but eat old sheep instead?"
Zhang Wuji usually would have a brave attitude, if someone was going to hit or kill him, he wouldn't beg to be spared. However, when he was trapped by these evil men, about to be eaten alive, he couldn't help but offer up a few words to try to plead for his life. But Xue Gongyuan instead just jeered repeatedly, "Haha, Wudang's and Emei's disciples claim to be the strongest and rule Jianghu, but today you're going to be eaten bite by bite. It would be really strange if Zhang Sanfeng or Old Nun Miejue knew about this and weren't angered to death."
Enraged, Zhang Wuji shouted, "Mr. Xue, if you have to eat people, then eat me. I just beg you to let this small sister go, then I can die with no regrets." Xue Gongyuan asked, "Why?" Zhang Wuji replied: "When her mother died, she trusted me to bring this little girl to her father. Today, if you eat just me, you will be full, tomorrow you can go buy some cows, lamb, or rice, please spare this little girl."
Jian Jie saw that he was able to fearlessly face danger at such a small age and with such a heroic and chivalrous air. He really thought this was something to be admired and couldn't help but be moved and hesitated, asking, "What should we do?" Xue Gongyuan replied, "Saving this small girl isn't a big deal. However, this may leak out; in the future, when Song Yuanqiao, Yu Lianzhou come to find us, Brother Jian should have certain methods to take care of them." Jian Jie nodded his head, saying, "What you said is also true. I'm a fool, never thinking of the future"
While saying these words, the other Huashan disciples returned with the pot of water and put it on the fire. Zhang Wuji knew the situation was urgent and shouted, "Little Sister Buhui, swear an oath to them that in the future you won't speak of today's events." Yang Buhui, confused, just cried out, "Can't eat you, can't eat you!" She didn't understand what Zhang Wuji was saying, but vaguely knew that he was sacrificing himself to protect her.
