Chapter 544: Pine Forest: The Assassination of the Blood Yin Sect
Su Miao accompanied Huiwei to the Haiphong Yamen, and Huiwei went in by himself, Su Miao was waiting for him in a small hall in the Yamen, and was entertained by the maids of the Haiphong Yamen with good tea and snacks. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info waited for about a quarter of an hour, and the aftertaste came back, waving at her at the door, Su Miao came out of the small hall, followed him out, got on the horse again, and went to the dock.
The sky has completely darkened, the night of Yuntai Island is not brighter than the traffic of Liangdu, the Yuntai Island seems to have fallen into a dead silence, except for the street close to the hot spring inn can be faintly illuminated by the light from the inn, the other streets without the hot spring inn can not see the five fingers, in such an environment, occasionally meet one or two patrolling people on the street, not only will not be happy, but will be frightened.
Su Miao was startled several times by the sudden appearance of the husband, and after that, Aftertaste finally rode into a pine forest, and Echo said that from this pine forest is the dock.
Su Miao originally thought that this was a small forest, but after entering, she found that this was a primitive wild pine forest, since it was a wild pine forest, there was naturally no street light, and she could only rely on a little light of the moon above her head to identify the direction, but unfortunately Su Miao's night vision was not very good, and she couldn't distinguish the direction after adapting to it for a long time, and she always felt that it was the same before, after, left and right.
"Do you know the way?" Su Miao couldn't help but ask the people behind her, reminiscing about the old god who had been there since he entered the wild pine forest, as if he was a living compass, but he was clearly a road idiot, although he probably hadn't committed road dementia since he came to Liangdu, but she still couldn't believe him on the road.
"Yes." Aftertaste is an understatement.
"Do you know where the docks are?"
"Just go straight." The aftertaste tone is easy to answer.
"Can you see it so dark?" Su Miao became more and more uneasy, and asked more worriedly.
"I can see it."
"Really?"
"Really."
"Really?"
"Don't worry, the horse can see, it has good eyes." Aftertaste said, patting the horse's head.
The horse's head shook and did not answer him.
Su Miao suddenly wanted to cry without tears: "Can I really take a boat back to Liangdu tonight?" ”
"Do you want to spend the night here?" Aftertaste rhetorical question.
"I mean, it's so dark here, there's not even a ghost, you're a road idiot, can you really find the right way to the docks?" Su Miao couldn't help it, and asked bluntly.
"Who said I was a road idiot!" Aftertaste retorted dissatisfiedly, "I'm just not very good at discerning unfamiliar streets, I have walked this road, of course I can find it." This road was originally the way to the dock, only this one can get to the pier, just go straight to the right, how could I go wrong! ”
“…… You suddenly talk a lot. Su Miao held back for a long time and couldn't help but say.
"You won't get lost, even if you get lost, what are you afraid of with me!" Aftertaste said unhappily.
"So you're still going to get lost?"
"No!" The aftertaste is categorically negative.
Su Miao's heart beat the drum faster.
"Don't be nervous, what are you afraid of with me, I won't sell you, I will definitely let you go back to Liangdu tonight!" Aftertaste said more and more unhappily.
"Hmm." Su Miao felt that he would definitely finish talking if he didn't answer, so he nodded against his will, looked around at the rustling wild pine forest around him that was blown by the wind, couldn't help but tighten his collar, and muttered in a low voice, "This month, the dark wind is high in the wilderness, and when the wind blows, it's weird and scary!" ”
After tasting and not speaking, he stopped suddenly, Su Miao didn't care at first, but he stopped and didn't go any further, Su Miao waited for a while, and saw that he had not moved anywhere, panicked, and asked in surprise:
"You can't really get lost, do you?"
Aftertaste covered her mouth and didn't let her make a sound.
Su Miao was startled, becoming more and more nervous, and her heart was pounding. She had a hunch that this was not a lost one, but that something else unforeseeable had happened. A chill crept up her spine and up to her scalp, and she covered her mouth with the aftertaste, rolled her big eyes, and pricked up her ears to listen to the movement in the wild pine forest.
The sound of someone's footsteps, the footsteps of many people, running, the sharp metal cut through the oncoming autumn wind and made a terrible sound, and then, about thirty people outflanked the front and back, surrounding the two of them and a horse in the middle!
These thirty or so young men, all dressed in night clothes, each carried a long knife with a silver scorching light in his hand. On their faces, the crimson fanged ghost mask obscured their expressions, such masks were worn on their faces, and it was no longer obvious that these were people, and in the dark night, these people were like ghosts that suddenly appeared, and the hideous ghost expressions on their masks were terrifying.
Of course, Su Miao knew that these people were definitely not here to ask for directions, and it was estimated that they were not preparing to rob when they looked at their clothes, so there was only one possibility......
"What bad thing have you done, so many people have come to hunt you down?" She whispered aftertaste.
"Blood Yin Sect." Aftertaste said three words lightly.
Su Miao was cold from head to toe, and talking to the cultists about morality, etiquette, righteousness, and shame was definitely playing the piano to the cow, and looking at their non-mainstream dress, I knew that these people must be perverted.
However, these thirty or so people seemed to be very jealous, holding the long knife in their hands, holding it tightly, and the eyes behind the masks stared at the aftertaste viciously, but they did not move for a long time.
The aftertaste is still the calm mirror face, he is riding on the horse, and he does not move, only when the wind blows, the corners of his clothes and the ends of his hair are waved.
"Can you escape on horseback alone?" His warm chest pressed against her back and whispered in her ear.
“…… It's too dark. Su Miao whispered.
"It's not productive." Aftertaste.
"Do you want me to leave you alone and run away, will that make me seem too unconscionable?"
"You've got a conscience for me." Aftertaste said in a stunned tone.
"You ......" Su Miao originally wanted to ask him, "What do you mean, are you dissatisfied with me?" Before he could say anything, he interrupted him.
"Keep running, don't look back, run where you think it's safe, hide, and I'll look for you later." Aftertaste said to her.
Su Miao's nerves were highly tense, and after listening to the aftertaste, she had many questions to ask, but before the words could be asked, the Blood Yin Sect on the other side seemed to be finally ready, and shouted:
"The little beast surnamed Liang, suffer death!"
A group of people swung their swords and rushed over like a raging tide that could break the river!
At the same time, Su Miao only felt that her body was light, and the aftertaste actually lifted her horizontally, jumped up quickly from the horse, and while stepping lightly on the horse's back with her toes, she threw Su Miao in her hand towards the dense forest in the north!
Su Miao flew out sideways like a shot put that had been thrown off, flying in mid-air, becoming a unique and beautiful scenery in the dark moon and high wind!
Afterlife, he actually threw his future lady as a shot put!
Su Miao was stunned, annoyed and nervous, and was still quickly thinking about what posture she was going to land in mid-air, and if she turned around in the air for three and a half weeks and landed with her knees hugged, this was too difficult!
There was a clear whistle, the sound of horses' hooves galloping, loud as thunder, just before Su Miao's head could figure out what posture she should land in, she had already fallen, she landed heavily on the back of the aftertaste, and the snow-white horse carried her to the dark forest at lightning speed!
The aftertaste landed steadily, his heels had just landed on the ground, and several swords of cold light had staggered over. The people in black were overjoyed, thinking that their target must have nowhere to escape this time, but the reality was that the people in black didn't know what was going on, they only felt that there was a flower in front of them, and the other party suddenly dodged when the tip of the sword was still half an inch long away from their bodies, calmly and calmly. He dodged the stabbing sword one by one, and then, with the strength of his toe on the tip of the sword, he jumped backwards onto the ancient pine tree that grew beside the road, and stood firmly in the center of the treetop.
The pine tree was not very tall, but in the eyes of the Assassins under the tree, it seemed to look down on them from above.
"Up! Kill him! The Assassins, who had been so scorned, could not bear it anymore and raised their swords and shouted.
Before the words fell, four white-clothed people suddenly flew from all directions, each white-clothed person's face was covered with a white ghost mask, their hands were up and down, and the four people standing at the four corners of the assassin team had not yet reacted to what was going on, blood was splashed everywhere, their heads fell to the ground, and they rolled out of the distance, and they didn't even have a chance to scream, they had already lost their breath!
When the Assassins' ranks finally broke out, someone whispered in panic:
"It's the Snow Guard!"
"Brothers, come on! The Blood Yin Sect is not afraid of these lackeys of the Liang family! The leader held his breath and shouted hoarsely.
The fierce and bloody battle began, thirty people against four people, which should have been a one-sided massacre with a good chance of victory, but the slaughtered side was not the snow guards!
Aftertaste was not interested in the brawl that took place under the pine tree, he stood on the pine tree, put his hand on the pergola and looked into the distance, Su Miao had already run away, she was riding on the horse, and the high speed of the white horse was about to throw her upside down.
"I really don't look back, I really don't have a conscience!" After looking at it for a while, he pouted and said.
Su Miao was wronged by this, Su Miao didn't want to turn back, but the big white horse under the seat didn't let her turn back at all. The horse ran fast, like an arrow off the string, running forward in a straight line, not listening to Su Miao's command at all, it was completely its own way to find its own route and run by itself, fortunately, it also knew that it would avoid trees when encountering trees, and jump over stones when encountering stones, otherwise Su Miao would have died hundreds of times.
In the end, Su Miao had given up trying to control the white horse, anyway, the more she walked into the forest, the darker it became, the woods covered the moon, she couldn't see anything anymore, the horse's eyesight was probably better than hers, she simply grabbed the reins and put her body close to the horse's back, closed her eyes and let the white horse run wild by herself. As for when to stop, it's not that she has the final say, but the horse has the final say, and when Su Miao resigned herself to this fate, she suddenly felt that this horse was really a horse with an aftertaste, and it was actually indescribably similar to the aftertaste.
The horse did not know how long it had been running, but suddenly, there was a noise in front of it, like the sound of the wheels of a carriage rolling on the ground, and the sound of the wheels suddenly appeared in the silent woods, which was very terrifying.
Su Miao's heart tightened, she had just been thrown out of the killer pile, and there was a stranger in front of her, her hair was about to stand up, and she desperately pulled the white horse to make it stop, and the horse probably wanted to stop, but because it was running too fast, the violent inertia pushed it far away, and when the horse's hooves were braked, the horse's head almost hit the horse's head in the opposite carriage.
The horse pulling the cart was furious and neighed loudly, but fortunately not a single foot came up.
The driver who pulled the cart was equally angry, and Huo Di stood up and shouted and asked:
"Who's coming?"
"Uh......" Su Miao was stunned by him, and she didn't know what to say for a while, and she didn't know who the other party was, so she rashly reported her name, in case the other party was a bad guy, and it was her who was unlucky. In case the other party is a pervert/wolf, it's best not to let the other party know that she's a woman, but this is not easy to hide, there are lights in the other party's car, and you can see it when you lift it.
Su Miao's brain was spinning rapidly, quickly thinking about countermeasures, at this moment, there was a sudden violent coughing sound in the carriage, the coughing sound interrupted Su Miao's thinking, making her mind blank for a moment, and then, this coughing sound evoked her more subtle memories, this coughing sound was very familiar, it reminded her of the small garden of the palace banquet, and the people who had been inadvertently glimpsed in Yuntai Temple before.
"Childe, are you alright?" The driver was a little nervous and whispered through the curtain to ask the people in the car.
The occupants of the car did not speak, and their coughs were slightly reduced.
Su Miao's mind turned a few corners, and she asked in a tentative tone in a whisper:
"His Royal Highness the King of Xiang?"
There was silence in the car for a moment, a slender hand stretched out from the car, lifted the curtain, and then, the long figure came out of the car and fell into Su Miao's eyes. Liang Xiao appeared, wearing a thick fox fur cloak, the weather was not so cold now, but he seemed to be very cold, wearing winter clothes in the depths of winter. He got out of the carriage and stood on the ground, his tall stature standing out.
"Why is Miss Su here?" He smiled and asked gently, as politely and gently as usual.
"I'm here to soak in the hot springs, is His Royal Highness the King of Xiang too?" Su Miao replied vaguely, and then asked.
"Oh, I'm a little uncomfortable at the turn of the season, but the bubble fountain can be better." Liang Xiao pressed one hand to his chest, said softly and weakly, looked at the white horse beside Su Miao, his eyes flashed slightly, and he asked with a smile, "This is Ah Wei's horse, right?" ”
"Ah, oh, he lent it to me." Su Miao replied curtly.
She had always regarded King Xiang as an idle prince who was cultured, talented, and loved to learn, but since the palace banquet, Su Miao's mood towards King Xiang was a little delicate, on the surface, King Xiang didn't do anything, but she was inexplicably wary of King Xiang.
"Where's Ah Wei?" Liang Xiao asked with a smile.
Su Miao pursed her lips, she didn't know whether she should tell Liang Xiao about the aftertaste of meeting the assassin, and said that Liang Xiao would help, he didn't bring it alone, and he looked weak. Of course, it is possible that the way he fell in her eyes was just a cover-up, so would he help if he didn't hide it? Will it really help, or will it do something that will fall into the ground? Su Miao really didn't want to think about others with such bad thoughts, but since she came to Liangdu and saw many two-faced people, she had to be on guard.
The big question is, does the aftertaste of being left alone really have a way to deal with those people on her own, and should she trust him unconditionally?
"Miss Su?" Liang Xiao saw that she was stunned, and called out with a smile.
Su Miao came back to her senses, calmed her expression, and said with a smile:
"He's behind, and he doesn't know what to do, so I have to go first and wait for him here." (To be continued.) )
