Chapter 146: The Aftermath of the Catastrophe

At this time, the cavalry in the distance spotted her and rode their horses to kill her. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info Cheng Jingjing pushed the side of the painting away, and when she wanted to step forward to meet the enemy alone, she was carried by a pair of powerful hands.

"Da Kun, what are you doing?!"

She beat the people under her and shouted angrily: "Let me go quickly, you can take the painting away, leave me alone!"

The painting next to him said to Da Kun: "The fire here is getting bigger and bigger, let's leave quickly, if it's too late, I'm afraid we won't be able to get out again!"

Da Kun nodded, and ran to a safe place with Cheng Jingjing and her.

At this time, the cavalry leader who came here found that Cheng Jingjing was gone, and immediately raised his long sword angrily and ordered: "Everyone obeys the order and kills all these people who dare to harbor the criminals of the imperial court, and no one is allowed to stay!"

"Yes!"

The earth-shattering sound echoed through the valley of the once calm, and the Ulatas fell one after another under the swords of the soldiers, the blood stained the land, and the true end had finally come.

When Da Kun and the others ran to the temple, they found that only Yinling was sitting on the ground alone. Her expression was dull and her eyes were blank, as if she had been greatly struck.

"Ling'er, are you okay?Patriarch, what about everyone?" Cheng Jingjing jumped off Da Kun and ran towards her in shock.

"Everyone is dead, and our house is burned down," Yinling said word by word like a wooden man, "Daddy died under the sword of those people to protect me, and I was the only one who escaped." It turns out that he didn't lie to me, the fireball is real, the destruction is real, it's just that I didn't believe him......"

"It's all because of me," Cheng Jingjing cried bitterly: "Those people are all coming for me, you take my life and let me, a sinner, go to hell!"

She put the sword in her hand around her neck, but was snatched away by the painting.

"Madam, what are you doing, now that everyone is dead, even if you kill yourself, it won't help! If something happens to you, how can the slave go back and explain to the prince!"

"Lord, what lord?" looked at them with red eyes.

Now, Cheng Jingjing has no choice but to admit frankly: "I am the princess in King An's mansion, and my husband is Lord An." Because I committed the crime of defrauding the king, I was chased and killed by the queen all the way here. ā€

"Oh no, it looks like someone is coming this way!"

At this time, Da Kun looked outside and said, "We have to leave quickly, otherwise no one in the valley will survive tonight." There is a secret passage behind the temple that only the clansmen know, and we hurry in before they find out!"

There was no more time to explain, Cheng Jingjing pulled up the silver bell, and the four of them fled into the secret stone passage together.

By the time they came out of the ground, it was already dark, and after the great incident of the previous night, everyone was exhausted, and as soon as they came out, they fell to the roots of the trees outside.

"Madame, where are we going now?" looked at this strange wood, and his face was full of sorrow.

The world is so big that there is no place for them, must the queen drive them all to death? I don't know how long it will take for those soldiers to find this place, and if they find it, it will definitely be more than lucky.

"Da Kun, do you know where this is?" Cheng Jingjing got up at this time and asked.

She was now covered in dust, her clothes were stained with blood, and her hair was covered in white ashes, completely devoid of her former clean and tidy appearance.

"I've never been here either, it seems like another road to the bottom of the mountain. ā€

Hearing Da Kun say this, she suddenly became worried. It is not easy for them to escape death, but they cannot starve to death in this mountain.

"Come with me. ā€

At this time, a figure next to him stood up, only to see Yinling say lightly: "My Gu worm knows how to get out." ā€

Cheng Jingjing wanted to comfort her, but she didn't know where to start, so she could only leave behind her with the others. The fire had wiped out the Ulata, and no one grieved more than her heart.

The four of them walked for a long time, and finally came to a small stream. Going down the stream is the main road, and if you stop there, you can probably wait for the merchants along the way to pass by and ask them for help. It's just that here you can meet soldiers who are returning the same way at any time, so they can't stay here for long.

"Ling'er, what are you and Da Kun's plans next?"

Taking advantage of the fact that everyone sat down to rest and drink water, Cheng Jingjing walked to Yinling's side alone.

"What else can I do," Yinling said expressionlessly, "Now that our family members are dead, there is no way out, sit here and wait for death." ā€

Cheng Jingjing knew that she was deeply remorseful, held her cold hand and said: "You still have me and Huapan, since everyone is homeless, it is better to walk together from now on and treat us as your relatives!"

There was a hint of emotion on Yinling's face, and she said in a cold tone: "I am still alive because I swore to help my father and the clan avenge. That cruel king has killed all of us, and I will make him pay!"

"Shhhh

Suddenly, the conversation between the two of them was interrupted, and everyone immediately tensed up and prepared to fight at any time. I saw a rapid sound of horses' hooves coming from the woods in front of them, and when a familiar figure appeared in front of them, the sword in Cheng Jingjing's hand fell to the ground with a "clang".

"Lord Wang?"

She looked at the person who suddenly appeared in front of her in disbelief, thinking that she was hallucinating because she was overthinking.

Seeing the person who had been thinking about him for a long time, Yang An jumped off the horse excitedly, rushed forward and hugged her tightly, but he didn't expect the two of them to reunite unexpectedly.

"What happened, why did you have blood on your body, is it injured somewhere?" Yang An looked at Cheng Jingjing and asked with an anxious face.

"Lord Wang, is this true?"

Cheng Jingjing stretched out her hand to touch his face, and said in a daze: "Why did you appear in front of me, am I dreaming, I thought I would never see you in my life." ā€

"It's me," Yang An said as he took her hand, "Look, I still have temperature on my hand." I looked for them all the way after I saw those Gu worms, and I heard that the imperial brother sent a team of people to Lingnan, is this king too late?"

"I'm fine, it's just ......" Cheng Jingjing leaned into Yang An's arms and choked up: "The people in the valley are all dead because of me, Ling'er's home has been burned down, and they are now homeless." Lord, what should we do now, I can't go back to the capital. ā€

"Actually, this king came out secretly this time," Yang An said at this time: "People outside only know that this king is sick and recuperating in bed, and no one finds out about my visit to Lingnan this time." Now that the situation in the capital is turbulent, I'm afraid the emperor doesn't have the heart to pay attention to you, so you can simply go back with this king!"

"What happened?" asked Cheng Jingjing with teary eyes.
