Chapter Forty-Nine: Fleeing and Encountering Twilight
She walked down the stairs, her clenched palms covered with sweat, and the guards guarding the doorway knelt down in unison, but she ignored them, walked a few steps, and blended into the crowd.
She walked in small steps, looking nervously around. She tried her best not to attract the attention of others, but this gorgeous dress didn't look like a civilian costume, a black gorgeous costume, not to mention how conspicuous it was in the crowd. However, the people here are very polite, and when they saw her, they just looked at her a few times with awe, and then whispered to the people around them, and there was no other action.
She was thinking about how to get out of this place quickly when she heard the sound of the wheels of a carriage. She was overjoyed. Yes, why didn't she think that she could ride in a carriage!
She looked up, and a carriage carved from blue gems drove down the road, and this carriage, she had seen, was the one that Lan Tian had ridden. The surrounding passers-by stood on both sides of the road on their own, making way for the carriage, and then all knelt on one knee and shouted in unison, "Honorable Lord Lan Ling." ”
She was stunned, I don't know what to do, suddenly, I pulled her gorgeous dress with a strong force, she was startled, her legs were weak, and she knelt on the ground raw, her knees hit the solid ground, and she almost screamed in pain, but she still subconsciously covered her mouth. Seeing the carriage getting closer and closer, she simply lowered her head and buried herself in the crowd.
She raised her eyes, but she didn't dare to raise her head.
Lan Ling lifted the light blue curtain of the carriage, revealing a face that could be called beautiful. Lan Ling nodded outside the car, signaling for them to stand up.
Unexpectedly, Lan Ling was still a person with special cultivation, but at the beginning, in the main hall, why did he ask the king to kill her? She didn't remember messing with Lan Ling. Forget it, I shouldn't see you again in the future! She's going to leave here, and everything here has nothing to do with her.
The carriage drove past her, and she hung her head deeply.
The people around her got up, and she stood up tremblingly on her knees. Damn, who didn't want to kill her just now? Now that I can't walk the road, how can I leave?
At this time, her shoulder was patted by someone else, and her heart was stunned and she turned her head sharply.
It was a beautiful face, fair skin, a high nose bridge, and a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes. She froze.
The man winked amusedly, held out his hand, and ......... A flick hit her forehead.
She came back to her senses, her teeth baring and glaring at him, her hands rubbing her forehead. He shouted, "What are you doing?" "Presumably it was him who pulled her just now, her knees, her forehead, it hurts, she will definitely report it.
When the man saw her reaction, he laughed a few times.
The man's laughter attracted the attention of a group of people, and it was only then that she remembered her plan. Turning around and about to leave, the man grabbed her wrist and leaned in front of her and asked her, "My name is Twilight Xiu, what about you?" ”
She shook off his hand and walked away on her knee, ignoring him.
Still unrelenting, Twilight asked her, "I told you your name, and in exchange, you should tell me your name too!" ”
She glared at him and said, "I didn't ask you. ”
"Then," he said after a moment's thought, "then, you will be called the Black Woman." ”
Black woman? She's not white, but she's not black. She looked at him depressedly and said, "I have a name." ”
Twilight pursed her lips and said, "You didn't tell me, besides, how suitable a black woman and a black woman, a woman in a black dress." ”
"Black Girl, Black Girl......" He shouted around her, causing everyone around him to look at her with strange eyes.
She glanced at him with contempt and said helplessly, "My name is Gu Siya." ”
"Gu Siya? What a strange name. He cupped his cheeks and whispered.
She didn't speak, not going to linger with him.
"You're also a nobleman!" He looked at her and asked.
She was shocked in her heart and didn't speak, but she noticed that in his words, with the word 'also', then, he is a nobleman?
She subconsciously distanced herself from him. She is not an aristocrat, she is nothing more than a toy of the nobility. She hates people who have power and think they can control everything, and she hates people who watch others suffer like a good show. And so is Twilight.
Twilight Xiu glanced at her parting from him, and leaned up again without paying attention, and said to her, "You escaped to play, where do you want to go, I'll be with you." ”
She thought about it, now, she is not familiar with the entire continent, and she doesn't know where to go, if there is a leader who will lead the way, it would be good, but he is a nobleman, so the resistance to the nobles is transferred to Du Xiu without reservation.
She said coldly, "No. ”
Twilight Xiu didn't seem to feel the coldness in her tone, took her hand, and ran, she was in a hurry, her hands struggled hard, but she couldn't break free of Twilight's hand.
Twilight turned his head and smiled at her, "Let's go, I'll take you to the carriage." ”
After hearing Twilight's words, she stopped struggling. Carriage? She needed it just right.
She looked at the back of Twilight's head. Perhaps, she shouldn't have transferred her dissatisfaction with the nobles to him, after all, Du Xiu is so friendly, he is different from other nobles, but she is trying to escape this time, and she can't tell when the pursuers sent by the king will come up and take him with her, maybe it will harm him, so no matter what, she will resolutely refuse him.
Soon, Twilight took her to a small shop.
Twilight gasped and smiled at her, "There's a carriage here. ”
The shopkeeper came out of the house, looked at their costumes, and said to them with a smile on his face, "You two are going out to play, there are many beautiful carriages in the shop, you can choose from them." ”
Twilight didn't look at him, took her hand, and walked into the shop.
The shopkeeper followed behind them, pointing to a carriage inlaid with red sandalwood and gold, and said, "This carriage is the most luxurious carriage in our shop, you two should choose this one, and the price of this one is not high, only 45,000 Star Coins." I believe that the two of you can afford it. ”
She frowned, and although she didn't know the value of the denomination here, it always felt so expensive.
Without saying a word, Twilight fumbled around his neck for a while, then took off a necklace in the shape of a droplet that glowed purple and handed it to the shopkeeper.
When the shopkeeper saw it, his eyes almost lit up, he held his hands together, and exclaimed, "Purple tears? Then he knelt down, "Venerable Lord Twilight, you are so noble and elegant......"
She was stunned, thinking that he was just an ordinary nobleman, but now it seems that he is still very famous.
Twilight Xiu didn't even look at the shopkeeper, took her hand and said, "I bought this carriage, is it enough?" ”
