Chapter 255: Rescued
Xiao Gu's heart was slightly relieved, and he quickly turned around and continued to chase, and after another quarter of an hour, he heard a faint scream not far away.
Her heart tightened, and she hurried away, but a few drops of blood were found at the scene, and no one or body was found.
She scraped off the last tuft of powder from the porcelain vase, but there was no response, and the ants foraged in circles in place, no longer able to show her the way.
Someone chased it and lost it?
She suppressed her shock and anxiety, and looked closely, but there was no clue, as if she had disappeared out of thin air.
****
After searching for nothing, she could only go back to find Bihe, the people of the Hou Mansion finally followed, searching around in a mess, Xiao Gu looked at them coldly, but in his heart was turbulent - who intervened in it?
Wang also followed the car to the forest, covered his face with a handkerchief and cried: "My poor niece, who is so vicious!" ”
She was also quite strange in her heart: the two people she sent were just pretending to be bandits, and were going to hack Ruyao to death if they were far away, so neatly and neatly, all the property in her name would be in her pocket - what kind of robbery was missing, this kind of thing was simply strange and abnormal, and it was definitely not her person's doing!
A good lady was robbed and disappeared, this innocent reputation will definitely not be good, this is related to the reputation of the entire Hou Mansion, how could she come up with such a bad idea - if Ruyao's reputation is stinky, her daughter is still in the boudoir, and it will inevitably be affected.
The subordinates searched out another corpse from the forest, and when the Wang family saw that the two people they sent were dead, they were even more convinced that something had gone wrong, and the anxiety on their faces changed from three points to ten!
Mrs. Tai is old and frail, this time she took the child out to incense, and she can shirk responsibility when she encounters robbers and kills, and a big girl is missing, and it is difficult to escape the blame for being an aunt.
The sky was getting dark, and the people of the Hou Mansion lit the pine torch and were looking for it. But he didn't dare to summon the officers and soldiers, and the forest was full of sporadic fires, slightly suppressed and terrifying shouts, and he had no clue for most of the night.
The tea shop on the side of the road has been taken down by the Hou Mansion, Bihe curled up in the corner and frowned, and Xiao Gu frowned and pondered on the side.
"How could you have said that—you didn't care about the girl's life at all!"
Bihe's voice was slightly sharp, and he glared at Xiao Gu angrily, but fortunately, there was a mess in front of the shop and no one noticed.
The exhaustion and panic of the day made her almost collapse. Her eyes were full of incomprehension, "If Miss has three longs and two shorts, you will be harmed!" ”
"If I had dropped my weapon, everyone would have died there—didn't you see that those two men were bent on taking your lives in the first place?"
Xiao Gu made an exception to explain her loyalty to the Lord.
"Then you can delay it a bit......"
Bihe shouted unwillingly, and suddenly there was a lot of noise outside, and someone hurriedly ran in and shouted happily: "Miss Ruyao has found it!" ”
What the! The two of them stood up together and ran out to the outside of the tea shop. Sure enough, I saw Ruyao sitting on a horse and was being helped down by someone, and the person standing with the horse on the side turned out to be ...... Xiao Yue!
"Girl, it's great that you're alright......!"
Bihe choked and pounced, and the two of them hugged each other and cried. Ruyao found that her legs were tired and stiff and she couldn't move, obviously she had suffered a lot when she was kidnapped in the middle of the night.
Xiao Gu stepped forward to help her, but in a hurry, she felt that Xiao Yue on the side was looking at her with a strange gaze.
Xiao Gu was alarmed, but he didn't have time to take care of it. I also wanted to ask Ruyao what she had experienced, and a group of women helped them into the tea shop, leaving Xiao Yue standing outside the door. The eyebrows trembled slightly because of excitement and doubt, and the fists clenched in the sleeves!
The scene just now appeared in front of him, the little girl who came out to greet him seemed to be called Xiao Gu, her torn sleeves swayed in the wind, and an orchid emblem was embroidered on the lining!
He was absolutely not mistaken, it was the secret mark of the Jinlan Society!
****
In the simple house behind the tea shop, the master and servant were talking under an oil lamp.
"I see, it was Young Master Xiao Yue who saved the girl! Heaven forbid! ”
After listening to Ruyao's story, Bihe patted her chest and felt palpitations, but Xiao Gu on the side had a different look in her eyes and was thoughtful.
According to Ru Yao, the mysterious man who suddenly appeared killed the strong man who held her hostage with one blow, and left quickly while Xiao Gu was unconscious.
"The man had no mount, but he was still walking on the flat ground with me on his back, and I only felt a rush of wind, and the object in front of me was backwards, and it seemed to run far away."
"I was very scared at the time, knowing that I was getting farther and farther away from you, and I just thought in my heart that I couldn't let him take me away even if I died, so I pulled out the hairpin on my head after thinking about it."
Ruyao took out the bloodstained sandalwood hairpin in her sleeve, "This is brought by my mother from the Zhang family, there is a sea over there, and there are often people who come to disturb her, and the female relatives will put such a particularly sharp one on the makeup box or body in order to protect their bodies, and her mother said with a smile that this hairpin tip can cut through dozens of layers of mulberry paper, which is not much worse than the blade." ”
"So I stabbed him in the back with a hairpin while he was carrying me, and he screamed in pain, and threw me to the ground, and I rolled down the mountain."
Ru Yao told the story, although it was plain, but the thrilling in it was also pathetic.
"I rolled down the hill, and many thorns and vines cut through my body, and I covered my head and face and finally fell to the ground, but I didn't expect the man to catch up with him - he was injured a little slower, and I ran as hard as I could, and he chased all the way. I don't know how long I ran, a few figures appeared in front of me, and I shouted for help in my heart, but I didn't expect it to be Xiao Gongzi. ”
"He came to hunt with a few personal soldiers, and this was the chance to save me, the mysterious man stood not far away and took a look, but he still ran away quickly, Xiao Gongzi's personal soldiers chased and didn't catch up, I don't know what the origin was - next, he sent me back."
After all the talks, Ru Yao's face was pale and tired again, and Bi He pulled Xiao Gu and was about to retire, but was stopped by Ru Yao, leaving Xiao Gu behind.
The room fell silent, the atmosphere seemed to be a little solemn and stiff, Xiao Gu was about to explain and apologize to her, but Ruyao stood up and saluted her solemnly.
"Girl, what are you doing here?"
Xiao Gu dodged to avoid it.
"This is to thank you for saving your life, I can see it clearly, those two villains really want to kill the two of us, if you didn't rush to save people, I'm afraid it would really be dead."
Ru Yaohua's face was gloomy, but she forced a smile, "I will remember your life-saving grace, and if I can repay it one day in the future......"
"Girl, you are serious, it is your duty to be the rescue master of the subordinate, where can you mention any kindness?" (To be continued......)
