Chapter 137: Assassination
Xiangguo Temple, the most influential Buddhist temple in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, because of the royal value, but also because of a holy monk, there are not many monks in the temple, but no one dares to be presumptuous in Xiangguo Temple, especially in the mountains behind Xiangguo Temple, no one dares to break in.
The spacious backyard of Xiangguo Temple splits several courtyards for pilgrims to stay in, and the courtyards are mainly simple in different sizes, with natural flowers and trees, and another scenery.
As the night quietly came, the surrounding scenery became more and more hazy, and the red lanterns around Xiangguoji Temple were lit, and the solemn Xiangguoji Temple was draped in a little soft warm color.
The courtyard where Ling Yiyi lived in the backyard was located in a relatively remote place in the backyard, and several guards who were sent by General Ling to escort Ling Yiyi dutifully guarded outside the silent courtyard gate.
There was a little light in the wing, and after dinner, Ling Yiyi stood quietly by the window, looking at the entrance of the small courtyard through the open window, waiting without sadness or joy in her heart, she might appear in Xiangguo Temple to see her grandfather.
She really hoped to ask her grandfather for permission, and then follow her grandfather to the border to visit her father and eldest brother, but if her grandfather did not agree, then she had to act secretly.
Ling Yiyi waited for a long time, seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, but she didn't wait for General Ling, but unexpectedly, she waited for a few sisters from the General's Mansion who should have left Xiangguo Temple.
Several ladies from the General's Mansion wore various delicate skirts in bright colors, and came with personal maids.
Because they were the masters of the General's Mansion, the guards who escorted Ling Yiyi did not intercept them, and after a little inquiry, they were allowed to enter.
Ling Wanrou walked in front of her with a red cloak, accompanied by Ling Wanrou in a white cloak on the left, and Ling Kerou who was also in a cloak behind her.
The corners of Ling Yiyi's mouth hooked slightly, and she smiled at the few people who came towards her through the window, "Huilan, go prepare some tea and snacks, there are guests coming!" ”
Ling Yiyi said and turned her head with a smile, glanced at Mo Lan, who was busy making the big bed in the room, and Tie Lan who was standing on the side, and finally ordered Hui Lan, who was in charge of life, to raise her feet and walk towards the outhouse.
The wing house where she lives now is similar to the wing house in Yilan Courtyard before, which is divided into a two-room structure of an inner room and an outer house.
The outhouse has always been a vigil for the three maids, and it can also be used to receive familiar women.
When Mo Lan and Hui Lan in the house heard that a guest was coming, they all looked at Ling Yiyi suspiciously, but Tie Lan's expression was still the same, holding the hilt of the sword in her left hand, and she followed Ling Yiyi out vigilantly.
"No!" Huilan came back to her senses, put down the embroidery in her hand, and walked out quickly with Ling Yiyi.
Huilan pushed open the closed door of the outhouse, took down a lantern from the corner, looked at the young ladies of the Ling family who were almost in front of him, saluted respectfully, and then got up and walked towards the small kitchen in the courtyard.
Ling Xuerou was the first to step into the simple outhouse, her cute little face was full of smiles, and she excitedly stepped forward to hold Ling Yiyi's arm, and said coquettishly, "Big sister, we came to see you!" ”
Ling Wan's soft long skirt swayed lightly, elegantly followed her steps into the wing, glanced at Ling Yiyi with a smile on the corner of her mouth, stepped forward and made a formal salute, and said with concern, "Big sister, I haven't seen you for a few days, is my sister okay?" ”
The two entered the house one after another, and the big girl who was on her side was left outside.
Ling Yiyi didn't make a big deal of it, got up indifferently, returned a salute, and said, "Fortunately, the second sister hasn't seen the red light for a few days, it's really refreshing to be in good spirits on happy occasions, and this posture is becoming more and more noble!" ”
Ling Kerou was dressed in red like fire, covered with a white cloak, like Ling Yiyi's previous dress, proudly walked to a solid wooden chair, sat down directly with a wave of long sleeves, and then raised his eyes and glanced at Ling Yiyi who was standing with contempt.
"Of course, the second sister is the future princess, and her status is extremely noble, but it is not comparable to the big sister, especially the current reputation of the eldest sister, tsk ......"
The words of hatred are full of irony, and the rest of the words are all unspoken!
Now, in the entire Sheng'an, and even in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, no one knows that the eldest lady of the General's Mansion of the Auxiliary Kingdom, Ling Yiyi, entered the flower street shamelessly, and then secretly had a private meeting with the man, and the water-based poplar flowers were innocent, enough to soak the pig cage.
Although, in the past ten days, another rumor suddenly came out outside, saying that the woman who entered the Qinglou on Huajie that night lost her innocence, and then had a private meeting with a foreign man was not Ling Yiyi, but a maid in the general's mansion.
In view of the prestige of the General's Mansion, the rumors about Miss Ling in Sheng'an City were suppressed, but secretly, there were still people talking about it.
"Ling Kerou!" Ling Xuerou stood on one side holding Ling Yiyi's arm, glaring at Ling Kerou who was sitting arrogantly on one side with displeasure, and reprimanded angrily in a bad tone.
"Ling Kerou, the eldest sister is not that kind of person at all, you also heard it that night, the eldest sister just went out to return Fengyu!"
After that, Ling Xuerou still asked for verification, raised her head and asked Ling Yiyi with a smile, "Right, big sister?" ”
Ling Yiyi sneered in her heart, this is her lovely sisters, who came to see her on the surface, and wished she would die behind her back!
Return Fengyu!
"Sister, do you want the General's Mansion to be suspicious of the emperor?"
Ling Yiyi pulled Ling Xuerou's hand off the crook of her arm, and with a slight flick of it, she turned around and walked to the seat, sitting down elegantly.
"Now in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, I'm afraid that no one doesn't know, that piece of phoenix jade was originally owned by King Chen of Dongzhao, and my sister said that I went out that night to return Fengyu, doesn't it mean that I, Ling Yiyi, either know King Chen, or am very familiar with the royal family of Dongzhao! To put it a step further, it is that my general's mansion is familiar with the Dongzhao royal family! Where does my sister want to put the General's Mansion! ”
Ling Yiyi's eyes sharpened, and she slapped her palm on the handle of the wooden chair, staring at Ling Kerou with a warning gaze.
The atmosphere suddenly became very tense, Mo Lan and Tie Lan pursed their lips tightly, and their displeased eyes were also fixed on Ling Kerou who was speaking.
Ling Kerou's heart tightened, her arrogant momentum suddenly decreased, her hands clasped into handkerchiefs, and she reluctantly denied it.
"How can the big sister say that? That's not what my sister meant! ”
Ling Wanrou couldn't stand it a little, and immediately reprimanded her, "Kerou, have you forgotten Grandfather's warning?" The eldest sister has already said at the concubine selection banquet that the piece of phoenix jade was picked up by the eldest sister! Grandfather also said that Fengyu was accidentally lost by the eldest sister, and no one is allowed to mention this Fengyu matter again! Are you trying to go against your grandfather's will? ”
That night, everyone in Yilan Courtyard, including those slaves and servants, knew that Ling Yiyi went out of the mansion to return Fengyu, at that time, although my grandfather didn't say anything, but on the second day, when the gossip was circulating, my grandfather ordered everyone in the mansion to strictly abide by this matter and not allow anyone to mention it!
She is also very unhappy about her grandfather's placement of her eldest sister in Xiangguo Temple, but she knows better that one glory has glory and one loss has loss!
At this time, Hui Lan walked in from outside the door with a teapot, a teacup and a snack, and also relieved the embarrassment of the four of them being stiff and silent.
"Miss, please drink tea, Miss Second, Miss Five, Miss Six, please drink tea!"
Whelan skillfully poured the brewed tea into the cup, then handed it to the ladies cup by cup, and finally put the small snacks that had just been made on the table.
After doing this, Whelan took the tray and retreated to the side, standing with the silent Mo Lan and the vigilant Tielan.
Several ladies from the General's Mansion fought against each other because of the confrontation just now, and after that, no one spoke again, just quietly drinking tea and eating snacks.
After a long while, Ling Wanrou put down the teacup and looked at Ling Yiyi gently.
"Big sister, Wanrou and her two younger sisters followed their grandmother to repay their wishes, and tomorrow my grandfather will personally come to pick up my grandmother and go home! When the time comes, Wanrou will definitely beg her grandfather to bring her big sister back to the house together! ”
Ling Wanrou observed Ling Yiyi's expression as she spoke, thinking in her heart why the big sister, whose reputation had been discredited, and who had lost face, had no happy expression.
Ling Yiyi held the teacup with a calm expression, raised her eyes and glanced at Ling Kerou, who wanted to see a joke, and Ling Xuerou, who looked concerned, with a perfunctory smile on the corner of her mouth, and her jade hand gently stroked the rim of the cup.
"Thank you Sister Wanrou for your concern, sister, I think it's good to stay in this Xiangguo Temple, so I won't bother my sisters to worry!"
She doesn't want to go back to the General's Mansion at all, and now Sheng An and the General's Mansion don't have a good impression in her heart at all, except for the troublesome notoriety and cold-blooded family affection, it is better to follow the only grandfather who hurts her to the border, at least there are fathers and big brothers who love her.
Come to think of it, no matter how bad her reputation is and her innocence is lost, her father and eldest brother will not dislike her.
The gentle and gentle smile decreased slightly, the red cherry lips pursed lightly, the handkerchief in her hand pretended to cover her face, and Fang put her hands in front of her dignifiedly, and hooked her lips modestly.
"Don't bother, they're all sisters, care about it, it can be said to be tiring! Wanrou has been out for a long time, I'm afraid that my grandmother will be worried, so Wanrou will go back first! ”
Wanrou was a delicate and transparent girl, and she knew that Ling Yiyi didn't want to see the three of them, so she didn't want to take the initiative to get up and salute and leave in this embarrassing situation.
"Big sister is like this now, what kind of arrogance!"
Ling Kerou guttered dissatisfiedly and arrogantly, got up straight and walked past Ling Wanrou and shook her sleeves.
Ling Yiyi didn't know Ling Kerou, she just got up and saluted Ling Wanrou back, and said lightly, "A few sisters go slowly!" I don't send it! ”
Ling Xuerou got up with an embarrassed face, twisted her handkerchief with both hands, bit her lip and looked at Ling Yiyi without saying anything, glanced at Ling Kerou and Ling Wan who had already gone out, and bowed her head again.
Ling Yiyi didn't want to worry about Ling Xuerou, but she couldn't do a blind date with sisters, so she just glanced back indifferently, and calmly raised her feet and walked towards a side room inside.
"Sister, Xue Rou didn't have the intention to rob her sister's guards, they saw that their sister didn't value them, and they wanted to follow Xue Rou!"
An explanation lightly passed on the cause of the matter, obviously Ling Xuerou asked the third lady to ask the old lady for the guards, but at this time, she said that she Ling Yiyi didn't need those guards, so the guards all chose another master.
Ling Xuerou is just as stupid as she Ling Yiyi is, doesn't she know anything? I still thought that no one in the general's mansion would help her Ling Yiyi, and no one would tell her the truth.
But she Ling Xuerou never expected that the person who told her the news would be Mama Zhou, who the old lady valued the most, and in this general's mansion, I am afraid that only Mama Zhou is a shrewd person with eight faces.
"Got it, sister, go slowly!"
After that, Ling Yiyi ignored Ling Xuerou anymore and moved into the bedroom in the wing, leaving Ling Xuerou alone in the outhouse.
Huilan, Mo Lan, and Tie Lan were Ling Yiyi's personal maids, and they casually saluted Ling Xuerou, and followed into the house, but they didn't see Ling Xuerou's hateful eyes.
Ling Xuerou bit her lip and suppressed the hatred in her heart, the handkerchief in her hand was torn and clenched tightly in her hand, she stomped her foot vigorously and strode out of the house, taking the big girl waiting outside the door, and quickly caught up with Ling Wanrou and Ling Kerou who were waiting in the courtyard, and the three of them left together with their own thoughts.
When she was discharged from the courtyard gate, Ling Xue Roufu turned her head and glared at the lit wing, turned around and glanced at the guards of the General's Mansion who were guarding the courtyard gate, and strode away.
Ling Yiyi, who was disturbed by Ling Kerou's sarcasm, threw her pale pink petite figure into the wooden bed, pulled the quilt over her somewhat tired body, "Tielan is in the outhouse, Mo Lan and Huilan go down to rest!" ”
I don't know why, after meeting a few sisters just now, she was very uneasy in her heart, and she always felt that something was going to happen, so just in case, she let Tielan, who knew martial arts, stay.
"No!" When Whelan and Mo Lan heard this, they immediately saluted respectfully, and then turned to leave.
Tie Lan originally wanted to help Ling Yiyi to put the young lady to sleep, but seeing the tired and weak appearance of the young lady, she covered Ling Yiyi with the quilt before turning around and going out.
"Hmm" Not long after Tielan went out, she heard a soft sound in the inner room of the wing, and immediately sat up from the soft couch in the outhouse, and listened attentively, "Hmm"
Another soft sound came from inside the house, and Tielan whispered very uneasily in her heart, "Miss? ”
"Tielan, come in!"
Ling Yiyi's weak and weak voice came from inside the house!
When Tie Lan heard this weak sound like an insect, her heart was shocked, and she immediately turned over and got down, lifted the curtain and strode into the inner room.
I saw that in the pale yellow light, on the old wooden bed, Ling Yiyi was lying on the bed in disheveled clothes, constantly tearing the skirt on her body, and kept whispering softly.
Tie Lan bent down and pulled the messy clothes on Ling Yiyi's body, feeling that Ling Yiyi's body was as hot as fire, "Miss, what's wrong with you?" ”
Ling Yiyi was lying on the bed sweating profusely, her messy dress was already wet with sweat, revealing her jade-like fragrant shoulders, her tearful eyes were full of style, her thin lips were extremely sexy, and she raised her hand weakly, "Tielan, I've been drugged, take me away!" ”
Ling Yiyi knew that she had been poisoned, and she might have been poisoned by other medicines, but now she was hot and weak, and streams of heat were surging down from all fours, longing for someone to hug her in her heart, her mind became more and more unclear, and she couldn't even control her movements, and grabbed Tielan's hand that could cool down.
Tie Lan was terrified in her heart, took out a black cloak and wrapped Ling Yiyi well, and hugged Ling Yiyi, who was half-open, and was about to leave. "Miss, let's go there!"
The young lady was in her own yard, and she actually fell for someone else's plot, so she had to panic and be afraid, I was afraid that there was a traitor in this yard, and I was even more afraid that the enemy would have a secret trick.
Ling Yiyi bit her lip, the pain made her sober up a little, one hand around Tielan's shoulder, the other hand pinched her thigh, and blinked in confusion, "Go to the back mountain, I remember that there is a pool of cold pools in the back mountain of Xiangguo Temple, which should be able to suppress the medicinal properties on my body." ”
Tie Lan no longer hesitated when she heard this, hugged Ling Yiyi, who was confused in her eyes, flew out of the window, jumped on the roof and flew in the direction of the back mountain.
The guards guarding the gate of the courtyard heard the sound, turned around and saw Tielan, a maid in green clothes, leaving with Ling Yiyi, who was wearing a black cloak, and looked at each other, one of them facing the other.
"The old general said, look at the eldest lady! The two of you stay here, you go and inform the others, and you follow me to chase the eldest lady!" ”
With that, the guards with knives moved separately, three of them rushed out of the courtyard, two chased Ling Yiyi in the direction they disappeared, and the other went to the front yard where the guards were resting.
The four secret guards sent by Lou Baiyu, who were hidden in the dead corners of the courtyard, also immediately launched a light attack and secretly chased them out after Ling Yiyi and Tie Lan flew out.
They didn't know that Ling Yiyi was going there so late, but judging by Tie Lan's slightly pale face, it must not be a good thing!
Tie Lan wore a black cloak to cover her face, Ling Yiyi, walked through the silent backyard of Xiangguo Temple, and headed towards the mountain behind the forbidden land.
The mountain road is difficult to walk, even if Tielan has light skills, it is difficult and dangerous to walk on the black fire and blind mountain, and from time to time he is scratched by branches and rocks.
The two of them had just climbed halfway up the mountain, and suddenly, dozens of black-clothed people appeared in front of them, holding cold long swords, and their eyes fiercely surrounded Tie Lan and Ling Yiyi in the middle.
"Put people down! Leave you all dead! ”
One of them coldly ordered Tielan.
As soon as Tie Lan saw this battle, she knew that they had fallen into someone else's trap, and the people behind this were afraid that they had already calculated that the young lady would go to the cold pool of the back mountain after being hit by the medicine, so she was waiting for them to fall into the net on this mountainside.
"Impossible!"
Thinking of this, it is even more impossible for Tielan to put Miss down, if she puts Miss down, she will not let Miss fall into the clutches of the devil, not only will her innocence be lost, but she is afraid that her life will also be lost here.
Tie Lan gritted her teeth, pulled out the long sword at her waist, and was about to rush out with one hand around Ling Yiyi.
Ling Yiyi's weak and weak body was like cotton wool, and it would go away with the wind as soon as the breeze blew, the corners of her lips were stained red with blood, and her jade hand stretched out from the cloak, gently pushing Tielan who was hugging her, her hazy eyes were full of charm, and the cold killing intent was hidden deep in it.
"Tielan, it seems that the two of us are going to die here tonight, this Xiangguo Temple is also a treasure of feng shui, and it is not unjust to be buried here!"
After that, a sharp dagger suddenly appeared in Ling Yiyi's palm, Ling Yiyi didn't blink, the sharp dagger pierced his leg fiercely, and blood instantly gushed out and dyed the pale butterfly skirt inside, and the butterflies on the skirt were dyed bright red blood butterflies.
Ling Yiyi, whose mouth was lightly hooked, her bewitching and charming eyes were as cold as frost, and she spun behind Tie Lan, looking at the man in black with her back to back.
"Miss Ben's dictionary hasn't seen a fight first! I'm afraid you won't have your life to take it! ”
As the blood on her legs flowed more and more, Ling Yiyi's dizzy head cleared up a lot, and her sanity and strength also recovered a lot, even if the desire on her body still made her unbearable.
Dozens of black-clothed people looked at Tie Lan and Ling Yiyi who were surrounded in the middle, fighting against the water, and rushed over with the sword in their hands, aiming directly at Tie Lan.
The long sword in Tie Lan's hand pulled out the sword flower and met the attacking long sword, Ling Yiyi also gritted her teeth and brandished a dagger to meet the man in black, and the two fought with dozens of men in black.
Although Ling Yiyi is skilled, how can he have a seizure of drugs on his body, and he is weak, and the attack power of the dagger is greatly reduced, although he has solved one person, he has been hit by several swords on his body, and one sword has scratched the arm with the dagger.
Although Tielan's martial arts are good, compared with the man in black, it is obviously much lower, the man in black didn't want to spare her life from the beginning, and he was extremely fierce when he moved his hand, and the sword hit the vital point.
In addition, Tie Lan wanted to protect Ling Yiyi behind him, and he didn't dare to dodge with light skills, and soon he was stabbed in the chest, and with a "poof", a mouthful of blood spurted out of Tie Lan's mouth and splashed onto the body of the man in black.
Ling Yiyi heard the sound, and when she turned around, she saw Tielan vomiting blood and falling to the ground, "Tielan! ”
Ling Yiyi turned around and hugged Tielan, who fell to the ground with a sword, and the two fell together on the weeds full of rubble, Ling Yiyi, who was covered in blood, bit her lip lightly, endured the discomfort on her body, and stabbed her thigh again with a dagger to stay awake.
"Tielan, how are you?"
Ling Yiyi's blood-covered hands tightly covered Tielan's bleeding chest, panicked and took out the gold sore medicine from her arms, and trembled her hands to help her sprinkle it on the wound.
"Miss, don't worry about the slaves, you run away!"
Even though he knew that he couldn't escape, Tie Lan, who was holding the long sword, still wanted to get up from the ground and protect Ling Yiyi from danger, but after trying several times, Tie Lan didn't succeed, so she could only push Ling Yiyi away with all her strength in vain.
"Miss, run away! Run down the hill and run back to the temple There may be a glimmer of life! ”
Xiangguo Temple is an important place for Buddhism, there have always been warrior monks to protect the safety of Xiangguo Temple, as long as you return to the temple to call for help, you can't say it, you will be saved.
Ling Yiyi was pushed by Tie Lan, she was so weak that she almost fell to one side, she was sweating profusely and she was burning all over, she gritted her teeth and lips to prevent her from snorting softly, and knelt beside Tie Lan to help her take medicine.
The man in black held a bloody long sword, surrounded the two people who were covered in blood and wolves, and slowly moved closer to Ling Yiyi and Tie Lan, the sword in his hand was aimed at Tie Lan again, and stabbed Tie Lan's heart with the breath of death.
Seeing that a few long swords were about to stab Tie Lan, and Tie Lan was about to die under the sword, Ling Yimeng pounced on Tie Lan and protected Tie Lan under her.
Just when Ling Yiyi's life was hanging by a thread, suddenly, four black-clothed masked men appeared out of thin air, protecting Ling Yiyi, who was suffering from minor injuries, and Tie Lan, who was covered in blood.
The four masked black-clothed men had long swords shining with cold light in their hands, and they picked up their sword flowers and swept towards the black-clothed men besieging Ling Yiyi.
The four-clothed people were defenseless in the face of the sudden attack, and several black-clothed people were immediately stabbed, and four of them directly lost their breath and fell to the ground with a bang.
"Who are you! How dare you stop us from doing things! ”
The leader of the man in black who was killed by mistake looked at the four subordinates who died in an instant, and immediately questioned sharply.
These four masked black-clothed men were Lou Baiyu, that is, the secret guards sent by Zhao Xuanchen to secretly protect Ling Yiyi, because Lou Baiyu's order could not appear until Ling Yiyi's life was endangered, so they only appeared at this last moment.
The only eyes of the four secret guards were exposed, and they glanced contemptuously at the man in black who was questioning, but did not reply, and the sword in his hand stabbed at the man in black with the weirdness of the night, and mingled with the man in black.
Ling Yiyi, who learned that she had been saved, suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, and stabbed the man in black again, the dagger in her hand separated the long sword, protected the unconscious Tielan, and fought with the man in black.
With the addition of the four secret guards, most of the black-clothed people were immediately contained, but the two fists were difficult to defeat the four hands, and the four secret guards were very skilled in martial arts, and it was very difficult to be besieged by these martial arts masters, especially to protect the seriously injured Ling Yiyi and Tielan, and it was even more difficult to restrain their hands and feet.
Slowly, the four secret guards were more or less wounded, and the four of them were more ferocious, while the dozens of black-clothed people were divided into several pulls, and their shots were even more vicious, obviously trying to kill the four of them separately.
When the man in black saw that the knife was sewn, Ling Yiyi had more wounds on her body, and the black cloak was already tattered, especially the charm medicine on her body was attracted by the smell of the men around her, which made her hate to catch a man and be strong, and even more hated to kill herself.
The fight continued halfway up the mountain, and Ling Yiyi clearly felt that the four secret guards who suddenly appeared were here to protect her, although she didn't know who sent them, but now she and Tielan were saved.
Ling Yiyi helped the unconscious Tielan up and shouted, "Take us away!" ”
Suddenly, the dark guards in the fight glanced at each other, two of them turned around neatly, one hugged Tielan and the other hugged Ling Yiyi, and the light skills flew under their feet, flying towards the direction of the back mountain, and the other two dark guards waved their long swords and followed them away.
The man in black saw that Ling Yiyi was rescued, "Chase!" ”
At the sound of the order, the people in black also flew in pursuit.
The speed of the dark guards with Ling Yiyi and Tie Lan was limited, and they were soon chased by the men in black behind them, and the two dark guards behind intercepted a group of people in black, and the rest of the men in black crossed them and attacked the dark guards with Tielan and Ling Yiyi with their swords.
Ling Yiyi saw that the shape in front of her was very unfavorable to them, and looked at Tie Lan, who was unconscious, and made a decisive decision in her heart, and said loudly to the secret guard with the Iron Temple.
"Take Tielan away! Keep her safe! ”
No matter who these secret guards who saved her were, she just wanted to be loyal at this time and protect her Tielan with her life.
She has always been wary of everyone, except for the three maids around her, Iron Temple, Huilan, and Mo Lan.
Today she was drugged in a room, and she could easily target the person who drugged her.
When Ling Wanrou and her two younger sisters were drinking tea in the room, the person who made the tea and served the refreshments was Huilan, and the people who poured the tea were Huilan and Mo Lan, and none of the sisters had touched the teapot and teacup, so she relaxed her vigilance, but she didn't think about it, she still fell into the trick, and the person who drugged it was her closest maid, either Mo Lan or Hui Lan.
Why not doubt Tielan? Because if this girl wanted to kill her, she wouldn't go to the lake to save her when she fell into the ice lake, and Tielan was an orphan, with no father or mother, and no weight to be coerced.
When the secret guard with Tielan around him heard this, he wanted to object, but he thought that the unconscious girl was now a big burden, so in order not to drag down the other three brothers, he turned around with Tielan and fled in the other direction.
When the man in black saw the actions of this secret guard, no one chased Tielan and them, but stayed behind to deal with the other three secret guards with all his might, and tried to take Ling Yiyi over as soon as possible.
They didn't expect that the originally simple kidnapping of people would become so troublesome and tricky, and this masked man who suddenly appeared, his martial arts were extremely high and difficult to deal with, he had killed many brothers for so long, and Ling Yiyi had not been caught yet, so the master was afraid that he would punish them!
The secret guards sent by Lou Baiyu, except for one who left with Tielan, and the other who fled with Ling Yiyi while fighting, finally escaped to the back mountain, but it was not in the direction of Hantan, but fled to the broken cliff of the back mountain.
The effect of the medicine on Ling Yiyi's body is getting bigger and bigger, her face is red and hot, she has no power to fight back at all, her hands keep pulling the black cloak on her body, and the pink gauze skirt inside is also torn up, which is messy.
The secret guard put his arm around Ling Yiyi, fighting to prevent her from harassing her hands, and suffered a lot of injuries when the fight got in the way, and the other two dark guards also suffered a lot of injuries while fighting and retreating.
The cold wind blew across the cliff, like a scythe of death in the dark night, so cold that Ling Yiyi shivered, and her mind was much clearer.
Ling Yiyi squinted through the hazy moonlight, looking at the increasingly invincible dark guards, her black clothes were dyed red.
Blood was sprinkled on the grass and rocks all around, the smell of blood filled the nose, and the black-clothed people died a few more people lying on the cold ground, and the secret guards were unsteady, and they should be injured and tired, and they began to defeat the large number of black-clothed people.
At this time, another group of black-clothed people came out of the shadows, carried light skills in the direction of Ling Yiyi, jumped directly over the dark guards and black-clothed people in the fight, came to the cold wind and frozen people's tuyere, and attacked the dark guards with their swords.
"Leave Ling Yiyi behind and let you live!"
Some of the black-clothed men who had just arrived shouted loudly, but the sword in his hand stabbed at the secret guard protecting Ling Yiyi with a murderous aura.
The blood from the corner of Ling Yiyi's lips flowed down the corners of her mouth, dripping on the black cloak, and she lost too much blood and rolled over her body, and looked at another group of people in black who suddenly appeared.
The black night made Ling Yiyi unable to tell who was who, but she knew that she was afraid that she would be more and less auspicious today.
Ling Yiyi didn't want the secret guard who saved her to die in vain, she was in the mountain behind Xiangguo Temple after being stricken, there was no cold pool thick ice pressure medicine, except for using a man's detoxification to break her innocence, there was no second way, no matter what, she would be unable to escape again.
The Dark Guard Sword set aside the attack, escorting Ling Yiyi back a few steps until he reached the edge of the cliff.
Ling Yiyi seized the opportunity, pushed away the secret guard, and fell to the ground with a dagger in one hand.
The dark guard's arms were empty, and he was suddenly shocked, and while swinging away the enemy's sword, he wanted to help Ling Yiyi up again and protect her.
Ling Yiyi shook her head stubbornly and helplessly, a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, and a weak sigh, "Hey, no need!" ”
The three scarred secret guards, hearing the words, looked at Ling Yiyi's appearance, knowing that Ling Yiyi, who was in a bad state, was afraid that she was saying her last words, and the three of them turned around and flew back to Ling Yiyi's body, protecting her behind her, and then behind her was a bottomless black cliff.
"Hand over Ling Yiyi!"
The group of black-clothed people who arrived later were the first to land in front of Ling Yiyi and the dark guards, and the dark guards attacked by the black-clothed men who arrived first flew away, and they all immediately surrounded Ling Yiyi and the dark guards on the cliff, and the impenetrable black-clothed people made it difficult for Ling Yiyi to fly.
"Hand over Ling Yiyi!"
Ling Yiyi's pale and flushed face was covered with cold sweat, and she stuffed the delicate dagger that she had been gated with her father, a gift from her father, a dagger with her name and an orchid engraved on it, into the hands of one of the secret guards who pulled her up.
"Go back and tell your master, if I don't die, I will repay her today's kindness!" Please help me take care of Tielan, this is a token! ”
The dark guard wanted to return the dagger in his hand to Ling Yiyi, but his cold and ruthless voice was slightly hoarse, "Swear to protect Miss Ling to the death!" ”
The other two secret guards also looked resolutely guarding, holding their long swords and facing the two black-clothed men defensively.
Ling Yiyi stubbornly didn't give him a chance, and his petite blood-stained little body got up from the ground with difficulty, looking at the two black-clothed men with predatory eyes, and the corners of his mouth lightly hooked a bewitching smile.
Looking back at the pitch black, the bottomless cliff, before everyone had time to react, jumped off the cliff.
"Depend on ......"
A familiar male voice with a sad and sad roar, with a strong internal force resounded through the mountain behind Xiangguo Temple, startling the two black-clothed people to resist with internal force, covering their ears tightly and suppressing the blood that wanted to spurt out of their chests.
I saw an inky black shadow pass through the pitch-black sky like lightning, and then follow Ling Yiyi's figure like a meteor and fall off the cliff.
This ink-colored figure is the Lou Baiyu who had a fever after being drugged by Chu Xiaoyao, and after being treated in Taigu Mountain, he rushed to Xiangguo Temple after waking up, and wanted to explain to Ling Yiyi, that is, Zhao Xuanchen, the fourth prince of Eastern Zhao.
Another elegant figure followed the inky black shadow, and there was a white figure, flying from the black grass and trees in the back mountain, seeing Lou Baiyu jumping into the hanging edge with Ling Yiyi, he couldn't help but shout loudly.
"Brother!"
"Senior brother!"
This elegant figure is no one else, it is Zhao Xuanxu, the fourth prince of Dongzhao who chased Zhao Xuanchen behind his buttocks and wanted to bring Zhao Xuanchen back to Dongzhao.
The man in the white robe was the big boss of the Fengyun Village in Taigu Mountain, and he was followed by a large number of bandits in coarse linen.
The big boss came to Ling Yiyi because he knew that Zhao Xuanchen had just woken up and was extremely weak, and in order to protect Zhao Xuanchen, by the way, he took a look at Miss Ling, who was remembered by him, and brought a group of bandits to act as a guard.
Unexpectedly, as soon as I arrived at Xiangguo Temple, I heard rumors in Xiangguo Temple that Miss Ling was kidnapped by thieves and her innocence was destroyed.
His junior brother turned around and asked Ling Yiyi's guard guarding the door in the courtyard, and chased after him, but he didn't expect that he was still a step too late, and he saw that Ling Yiyi jumped off the cliff, and even more affected his junior brother jumping off the cliff.
Thinking of this, the big boss hated these black-clothed people in his heart, "Kill, don't leave any of them!" ”
At the sound of an order, the white-clothed boss led the bandits of Fengyun Village, wielding big knives and long swords, and holding axes to kill those black-clothed people.
Of course, the people in black would not be captured, and seeing that they were beheaded, they raised their swords to resist, and a life-threatening battle began.
Chu Xiao stood quietly on the edge of the cliff, his deep eyes were full of pain, he glanced at the three seriously injured secret guards kneeling on the ground, and flew towards the main hall of Xiangguo Temple.
The three secret guards who protected Ling Yiyi, seeing that the master was falling off the cliff closely, wanted to pull but couldn't pull it, so they could only kneel on the ground in vain, and as soon as Chu Xiaoyao left, they immediately got up, put away Ling Yiyi's dagger, and explored the path down the cliff everywhere.
The blood spurted wine and steamed, staining the surrounding grass and trees and mountains and rocks, the bandits in Fengyun Village were not ordinary bandits, they were all heroes with one to ten, and the exquisite knife skills killed bravely, quickly harvesting the two black-clothed people.
Soon, all the black-clothed people on the cliff in the back mountain were explained, and the corpses lay on the ground, full of corpses, and the blood flowed and soaked in the earth and stones, but it could not warm the hateful heart of the big boss.
The big boss's white clothes were dyed red, the software in his hand was waisted, and he walked towards the back mountain step by step with traces of blood, "Second brother, take the brothers back to the cottage!" ”
"Boss! That ......"
The second child, that is, the second master, wiped the blood droplets from his face and opened his mouth with some hesitation.
Now, the third child, that is, the third master, fell off the cliff, and the boss didn't let them save the third child here, but asked him to take someone back, which made him worry and feel aggrieved.
However, the second boss still waved his hand and walked down the mountain with his bandits!
As for the corpses and blood all over the ground, it was not in their consideration!
When they were all far away, some little mice hiding in the dark who didn't dare to breathe in the atmosphere sneaked away under the cover of night.
Besides, in order to prevent being tainted by the annihilation of people, for the reputation of her father and grandfather, and in order to preserve the reputation of the General's Mansion, Ling Yiyi jumped off the cliff for the rest of her life, thinking that she would definitely die, at the last moment she thought of her father and eldest brother on the side, and thought of Zhao Xuanchen, the only friend who forgave and deceived her.
At the moment of jumping, she suddenly heard Xuan Chen's familiar voice, full of despair, coming from not far away, she closed her eyes tightly, listening to the cold wind whistling in her ears, and felt that it was good to hear the voice of the fool before she died.
Although Zhao Xuanchen has been lying to her all along, he saved his father Ling Feng, who was hostile to him, and also saved her Ling Yiyi's life, it is indeed a fact, and this life-saving grace is enough to resist his deception.
Suddenly, Ling Yiyi felt the warmth of her body blown cold by the wind, and the sound of warm breathing came from her ears, and she opened her eyes suddenly.
I saw that Lou Baiyu, who was dressed in ink-colored and exquisitely embroidered with gold silk moire, hugged her tightly with her powerful hands, and switched positions with her.
Lou Baiyu, who was originally above, held her in his arms and transferred her to Ling Yiyi's body, escorting her to fall in the air together, and the iconic silver mask was close in front of him.
Ling Yiyi felt that the medicine that had been frozen by the cold wind was slightly calmer, because Lou Baiyu's touch started again, and a stream of heat rushed somewhere under him, and a soft sound came out of the bitten lip.
"Well, you're stupid! Why did you jump off with it? ”
At this moment, Ling Yiyi couldn't tell what kind of mood she was in in her heart, there were surprises, sadness, hatred, relief, and a trace of imperceptible speechlessness.
Someone is willing to follow her to the death, life and death together, I'm afraid that no one can be indifferent to the end!
Lou Baiyu hugged the petite Yiyi tightly with both hands, feeling the unusual heat on Ling Yiyi's body, listening to the sound of hot breathing in his ears, and the coquettish panting sound of tempting people to commit crimes, he felt a boom, and a firelight surged through his limbs to his lower body.
"Yiyi, what's wrong with you?"
Even in the bottomless mid-air, Lou Baiyu was most concerned about Yiyi in his arms, he swung his internal force to the bottom of the cliff with his backhand, feeling the speed of the wind and the speed of falling, as well as the distance from the bottom of the cliff, while steadily protecting Ling Yiyi's head in his arms, he could only let Ling Yiyi, who was delirious, keep tearing his clothes and keep igniting fire on him.
Before Ling Yiyi could answer, she heard a bang, and Ling Yiyi felt that Lou Baiyu, who was holding her, was shocked, her head was dizzy, and she felt as if the two of them had fallen to the bottom of the cliff, and Zhao Xuanchen was obviously her back.
