(Chapter 104) The Long Night is Mostly Ruthless Hate (9)
As the morning sun faded into the mist, I opened my eyes from the tree, jumped lightly, and landed under the tree.
"Are we leaving?" Peony falls from another tree.
"Hmm." I nodded at her.
Shaohong looked at the misty mist in the distance and said softly, "I just hope that everything will go well today." ”
I glanced at her and said with a smile, "Don't worry, as long as we speed up our pace today, we will be able to get out of the dense forest and reach the city of Qi Kingdom." ”
"What if those people come after you? The Tiger Lion probably has no way to deal with them. Peony said worriedly.
I swung my hands from side to side, shook them a few more times, loosened my body, and began to hurry.
"Instead of worrying here, it's better to go quickly, and you have to work hard, otherwise wouldn't you be unwilling?"
Since I revealed her purpose yesterday, Peony has been silent, but early this morning, she lost the vicissitudes and sadness of last night, but became charming and moving again. She followed me and asked playfully, "Brother Shen went so far and wide to deliver medicine to Gu Xiang of Qi Kingdom, it is rare to be touching." ”
I took out the folding fan on my waist and knocked it in my hand, affirming as if I had been praised, "This aspect has always been the most affectionate and righteous, and I can't see the bad things of others." ”
When I said it, my face was not red and my heart was not beating, and Shaohong was not embarrassed or embarrassed to hear it, she continued my words and said, "Brother Shen and Gu Xiang are both immortal geniuses, I wonder if Brother Shen has ever thought about separating himself from Gu Xiang?" ”
"There is no point in competing meaninglessly, and winning or losing is only a momentary situation." I said very plainly, "We have been fighting each other, winning or losing is also between reincarnation and transformation, if Sister Shaohong really wants to know the superiority of me and him, she will wait patiently,"
"Wait?" Shaohong covered her mouth and smiled, "It seems that Brother Shen is very sure." ”
I unfolded the folding fan and shook it gracefully, "My face has always been the most confident." ”
Peony Hong listened to my words, squinted her eyes and laughed, "If you are impatient to be the prime minister one day, it is better to go to a teahouse to find a position as a storyteller. ”
I lowered my head and thought about it seriously, but I shook my head regretfully and said, "I'm afraid that what you want to listen to when you are a tea guest is not the story I said, but to come and see me." ”
"That's true." Shaohong looked me up and down, covered her mouth and smiled, "Brother Shen's appearance is indeed a scene of Qinguo." ”
As soon as the folding fan was closed, I smiled at her and did not speak.
"Have you ever been troubled by your appearance?" Peony smiled enough, so she didn't tease me anymore, but asked such a question.
You know, in fact, the appearance of excellence itself is a kind of original sin, whether it is for women or men, too prominent looks will only bring endless trouble and suffering to themselves. Shen Qingzhi is now the prime minister of Qinguo under one person and above ten thousand people, but as far as she knows, her previous life was not easy, and when she was struggling to survive, this kind of appearance was undoubtedly a burden. So, looking back after she became famous, did she ever resent God for giving her such a good look?
I pondered for a moment, then replied, "If I was born to be better than others, why should I feel sorry for myself and seek trouble for it?" This is the favor of God, and since I have accepted this favor, I have to accept everything it brings, and if I do not have this ability, it is destined to last long. ”
"Don't you think it's all unfair?" Peony said, "Obviously, all this is not what you want, nor is it something you got voluntarily. ”
I turned my head to look at Peony Red and said with a smile, "You should also understand this truth, God will not give a person extra preferential treatment, nor will he bully a person at will, everything is fair." What you are disgusted with now is nothing more than because you have already obtained it, and you have obtained it easily and effortlessly. ”
Peony Hong almost subconsciously avoided my gaze, but with a flicker in her eyes, she looked at me again, "Shen Qingzhi, not everyone has an opportunity like yours, and not everyone can have the ability of yours, some people are struggling to the death, but they are only in vain, is this really a fair world?" ”
"You're just the luckiest one."
I stared at those dead and dark but extraordinarily beautiful eyes, and there was a momentary blank in my mind, many, many years later, when I was in pain and struggling, I would always suddenly think of these eyes in the sun today, I don't know if it was my nightmare or salvation.
"You ......" I was about to open my mouth to say something, but dozens of men in black suddenly poured out of the forest behind us.
They all had dark blood stains on their bodies, some of them had been bitten by wild beasts, their tattered clothes hung on their bodies, and the deep wounds on the bones were dripping with blood, and it was clear that these people were the ones who had been struck by me with a blade that day, and led the tiger lion away.
"Who the hell are you, and why do you keep following us?" Although I knew that this sentence was useless, I couldn't help but ask. Good Mood Literature Network
"Run!" Peony Red didn't have as much heart as me, grabbed my arm and rushed in the direction of concealment, but it was clear that this group of men in black had been specially trained, and they were not much faster than us in the dense forest, and in just a moment, they surrounded us and blocked all the exits.
There was barely a pause, and the men in black rushed towards us like a tidal wave.
In normal times, I would naturally not be afraid of dozens of people in this area, but the terrain in this dense forest is complicated, and Shaohong and I are not familiar with the environment in the dense forest, so it may be a lot more difficult to deal with this group of people.
I clenched the folding fan in my hand, and my body ghostly avoided the attack of the man in black, as soon as the folding fan stretched out a little, I heard a cry of pain, and a man in black rolled to the ground and convulsed, but at the same time that the man in black screamed in pain, countless killing moves beckoned to me, I didn't dare to collide with them, and my body hurriedly retreated.
"Hard fighting is not the way, we have to find a way to rush out." Peony dodged the attack of a man in black and shouted at me.
"I understand." As I repelled the enemy, I said, "Attention, concentrate!" ”
After that, as soon as the folding fan in my hand opened, it was like a sharp flake, and all the black-clothed people who attacked me were cut off by me, and my eyes narrowed slightly, and I and Shaohong took advantage of the enemy's panic to pause, kicked several people in succession, rushed out of the encirclement, and rushed forward.
The man in black came back to his senses in the blink of an eye, and chased after us closely, and within three breaths of time, they actually had a tendency to surround us, at this time, Peony Hong suddenly turned pale for some reason, spit out a mouthful of blood, and then fell to the ground, I was shocked, stopped and went to pull her, seeing that the man in black was about to rush up, in a hurry, I didn't care about what was suitable or not, and picked up Peony Red and ran forward, but the disaster was not a single line, I just ran a few steps with Peony Hong, and my feet were suddenly empty, Before we could scream, our bodies plummeted.
It's really a bad year!
I scolded in my heart, holding the peony with one hand, and the other hand grabbed the folding fan and stabbed it hard to the stone wall, the weight of the two people plus the speed of the fall, I grabbed the folding fan and immediately felt a sharp pain, I gritted my teeth and insisted, but the small folding fan couldn't stand such a big impact at all, only paused for a moment, it broke apart, and I and the peony immediately began to fall again, but fortunately, not far below us was a protruding boulder, I hugged the peony red, and I snorted and hit it.
I gasped and sat up, holding back the dizziness in my head.
"Peony, peony, wake up!" I nudged the unconscious woman in my arms.
Peony opened her eyes slightly and looked at me weakly, and the next second she spit out a mouthful of blood.
Seeing that she was in real pain, I took out a painkiller I had with me and gave it to her, then stood up and looked around.
"There's a cave there." I picked up Peony with one hand, "You lie on my back, I'll take you over." ”
Because of the effect of the painkiller pills, Peony felt a lot better, and she nodded slightly and fell on my back.
The cave was twenty or thirty meters above us, not far away, and I carried Peony on my back, told her to hold me tight, and then grabbed the vines on the wall with one hand, and flew up.
The cave is not very big, it is empty, there is nothing but stones. I quickly found a clean place to put down the peony, and then took off my coat and put it on her.
"Your hand ......" Seeing that one of my hands was hanging weakly, Shaohong was shocked and anxious.
"It's fine." I comforted her, "It's just a dislocation, and when we get out safely, we can just find a doctor to pick it up." ”
"Is your head okay then?" Peony wanted to sit up and check on me, but as soon as she moved, the cramping pain in her chest started again.
"Don't move." I pressed her down, "I'm just a little dizzy, no broken skin, no bleeding." It's you, what's the matter with you? Are you poisoned? Or have you had a very serious internal injury before? ”
Peony shook her head weakly, "I'm just at the end of the day." ”
"What do you mean?" I asked, "What do you mean by 'the deadline'?" ”
Peony shook her head silently and gradually closed her eyes. I was startled and immediately reached out to check her breathing.
Fortunately, I was just weak and fell asleep.
I exhaled and stood up to get out to find some dry vines and water.
These damn men in black, sooner or later, one day I will let you go to the prison of Qinguo to taste the taste, thinking that I, Shen Qingzhi, will be chased and killed one day in a panic and fall off the cliff, it is simply a great shame!
I don't know if there is water in this ghost place, if not, I can only leave with Peony Red, her appearance is really not good.
