Volume 1 Helpless Love is Shallow Chapter 12 Rescue in the Mountains
An Yiran was so frightened that she closed her eyes tightly, panicking in her heart, knowing that her life was about to be lost, and seeing those big blades getting closer and closer......
She suddenly became anxious, remembering the self-defense witchcraft taught by her mother, she quickly stabilized her mind, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and hurriedly recited a few incantations, instantly freezing the thoughts and movements of the dozen or so bandits.
She breathed a sigh of relief, stroked her chest, tightened the bag on her shoulders, and quickly ran out of the bandit circle.
However, her immobilization witchcraft was too shallow, and soon after she ran out of the bandit encirclement, the spell became invalid, and the bandits relieved themselves and realized that the "prey" in the encirclement had fled, and the bandits led by hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up and chase!" Don't let that stinky boy run away! ”
An Yiran ran desperately to escape, running out of breath, and feeling weaker and weaker in her legs and feet.
In the final analysis, she is still a pampered daughter, although she is lively and active on weekdays, her physical strength is naturally not as good as that of the group of rough men behind her.
She ran desperately at an accelerated pace, but from time to time she looked back at the group of thieves behind her who were about to catch up with her, and shouted desperately: "I'm Di Niang!" How good is that? I haven't tasted the big chicken leg in Kyochu yet! How can you just go to the West? ”
At the moment of escaping, An Yiran's mind flashed a familiar picture, as if this scene was something she had experienced before, but she couldn't remember why this frightening picture suddenly appeared in her mind.
At this moment, she didn't care about being entangled so much, so she could only use all her strength to run for her life, otherwise she would really be buried in this deep mountain and old forest.
As she ran, she saw a small lake in the mountains across the mountain road in front of her, and her heart was even more desperate, if she ran further, she would have no way to escape, unless she jumped into the lake, but she would not be able to swim!
"Oh no, no, no, no, ......" An Yiran's mouth kept muttering, her heart was full of fear, she felt that she couldn't run, but she still wanted to live, and the current situation was afraid that ten kinds of self-defense witchcraft couldn't save her!
She ran to the shore of the lake and hurriedly stopped, terrified that if she could not stop just now, she would fall into the lake if she took another step.
Just as she was secretly rejoicing, the bandits had caught up and surrounded her again.
This time she was so miserable! There is a dead end on the left and right, either to be hacked to death or drowned!
An Yiran was in a panic, and continued to recite the immobilization technique just now, but found that it was useless no matter what, and the thieves led by her had already seen her trick to escape.
This time, he no longer relaxed his vigilance, sneered viciously, and approached the thin An Yiran step by step with a big knife, shouting arrogantly: "Stinky boy! Stop struggling! Today is your day of death! ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and was about to slash the sharp knife towards An Yiran, An Yiran was so shocked that he quickly squatted down, held his head in his hands, and shouted in horror: "Ahhh Help me! ”
The moment before the blade was about to fall on An Yiran's body, the first thief was suddenly shot by an unknown flying arrow in the distance, and then fell heavily to the ground, blood kept gushing out from the corner of his mouth, and he burped after struggling on the ground a few times!
All the bandits were furious, seeing that their leader had been killed in an instant, they all turned their eyes to the direction where the arrow was fired, and before they could fully react, a group of plainclothes men suddenly rushed out of the shadows and fought with the bandits.
An Yiran had never seen such a chaotic fight scene, and she was instantly shocked that her hands and feet went weak, and she stayed in place and didn't know what to do.
Suddenly, a thief was unwilling to give up the pursuit of An Yiran, and slashed at her when she was not paying attention.
An Yiran was so frightened that she couldn't stand steadily, and the whole person lost her center of gravity and fell into the lake with a "plop".
There was still a fierce scuffle on the shore of the lake, and no one noticed the little boy who fell into the lake, except for the bandit who was about to destroy An Yiran just now.
An Yiran struggled desperately on the surface of the lake several times, and the more she struggled, the lower her strength became, her body sank deeper and deeper to the bottom of the lake, and then there was a damn leg cramp.
She subconsciously wanted to shout "Help!" But she felt that when she opened her mouth, a large mouthful of lake water choked into her throat, and she was uncomfortable, and her breathing gradually became short.
Gradually, she lost all her strength, and her consciousness gradually faded, and at this time, the face of a young boy of eight or nine years old appeared in her mind, the person buried in the depths of her memory.
Although she didn't know why she thought of the little boy at this time, she was very eager to see him again.
Soon after, she gradually lost consciousness, and before she fell unconscious, she vaguely felt that someone was picking her up in the lake, but she still fell into a deep sleep......
There was a man with a cold face in the lake who dragged An Yiran who was unconscious with all his strength, slowly swam to the shore of the lake, and then with the help of his guards, he tried to drag An Yiran ashore.
"Your Highness, isn't this the girl who had an unhappy encounter with us in Xizhou?" Chang Feng, the guard beside Song Moyu, helped bring An Yiran ashore, and after lowering her flat on the ground, he screamed in surprise.
"That's right! She is Cong Zhiying's daughter, we have to rescue her quickly, and maybe we can find the whereabouts of Cong Zhiying from her! Song Moyu replied affirmatively, completely ignoring that he was soaking wet, he squatted directly to An Yiran's side, pressed her heart tightly with both hands, and tried to spit out the lake water she was choking on.
"Your Highness, let your subordinates come down!" Chang Feng saw that Song Moyu was wet all over, worried that he was uncomfortable, and volunteered.
"No, you don't! You go and bring the horses over. Song Moyu shook his head and refused, and continued to save people on his own.
He pressed a few times, but fortunately, An Yiran finally spit out all the lake water in her mouth after coughing a few times, and after she opened her eyes slightly for a while, she fell asleep unconsciously.
Song Moyu carefully probed her snort, instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and sat down on the ground in a relaxed mood, ordering the other attendants beside him to take away the bandits who were captured by them, while he waited quietly for Chang Feng to bring the horse back.
At the moment when Song Moyu waited, he secretly turned his eyes to An Yiran who was sleeping, looking at her delicate face, her fair skin was like a coagulated cream, and there was a little white color attached to her soft lips, and her weak appearance after drowning made him feel pity immediately.
He inexplicably felt that the woman in front of him looked a little similar to the innocent and lovely sister he had seen when he was a child, but he soon changed his opinion and felt that it was completely impossible.
After all, when the two first met in Xizhou that day, the bad impression had already taken root, how could such a stupid and ridiculous woman be compared to the smart and clever Yuyao sister he had seen when he was a child?
Song Moyu sneered at An Yiran who was unconscious, shook his head mockingly, then stood up and ordered Chang Feng, who had just returned with two horses, to carry her onto the horse, and ordered him to send her safely to the Beijing suburb courtyard.
And Song Moyu himself got on another horse and drove the horse away from this dangerous deep forest.
The next day, the Six Princes were in the suburbs of Beijing
An Yiran on the bed gradually opened her eyes and found that there was an unfamiliar scene in front of her, she turned her head to look around, and then sat up a little dazed, muttering to herself: "Where am I?" ”
At this moment, the wooden door of the wing room suddenly creaked, and someone pushed the door and walked in.
An Yiran stared vigilantly at the wooden door, only to see a woman in a plain dress walk in.
Her eyebrows and eyes are tender, like a hibiscus out of water, the corners of her red lips are slightly raised, she has an elegant temperament, and a pearl hairpin is obliquely inserted in her long sideburns, with her own gentle style in her gestures.
"Girl, are you awake? Do you feel unwell? As soon as the gentle woman entered the room, she walked towards An Yiran's bedside and asked with concern in her eyes.
"I'm fine, where is this? Who are you? An Yiran's eyes were full of defense, staring at the woman standing beside her bed, and asked with puzzlement.
"Don't be afraid, girl, this is the Beijing suburb courtyard of the Six Princes, so it is very safe, and I am not a bad person, I was entrusted by the Six Princes to take care of the girl." The gentle woman raised the corners of her lips slightly, smiled tenderly, sat on the edge of her bed, held An Yiran's hand and explained enthusiastically.
"The Sixth Prince?" An Yiran read suspiciously, constantly thinking about what kind of situation she was in at the moment.
"You drowned yesterday, but it was His Royal Highness the Sixth who rescued you and ordered me to take care of you." The gentle woman patiently explained the doubts in An Yiran's heart again.
"I see, where are the six princes now? Can I meet him? An Yiran wanted to meet this legendary life-saving benefactor and thank others for their life-saving grace in person, after all, her mother taught her when she was a child.
"It's... I'm afraid that His Royal Highness doesn't show up often, don't worry, girl, just stay in this courtyard and take care of yourself before leaving. The gentle woman thought that An Yiran was worried, and comforted again.
"Okay then, that sister has the opportunity to thank the six princes for me." An Yiran didn't insist anymore.
"Okay, that girl have a good rest, and call me again if necessary." After the gentle woman finished explaining, she got up and planned to leave.
An Yiran hurriedly pulled her back, smiled and asked politely, "Sister, I haven't asked you yet, what should I call you!" ”
"My name is Su Qianli, you can call me Ah Li!" The gentle woman smiled slightly and responded kindly.
"Su Qianli, sister, your name is so nice!" An Yiran praised from the bottom of her heart.
"Thank you! So what's your name? Su Qianli sat back on An Yiran's bedside and talked with her, and the friendship between women was established unconsciously.
"My name is An Yiran, my sister can call me Ran'er, and everyone in my family calls me that." An Yiran smiled happily.
She felt that Su Qianli in front of her was a very good woman, she was used to seeing the pampered daughters of those rich and noble families in Xizhou City, and now seeing Su Qianli's gentle temperament that was different from those women, it instantly made her feel more cordial.
