CHAPTER XXIII

In order to stabilize her body, Xu Jiayi subconsciously released the reins, but in this way, the reins slipped to the ground, and Xu Jiayi's hand length could not reach it at all.

It won't work at all like this, Xu Jiayi's heart sank more and more.

"Cuiyun, I'll let you jump out later, and you'll jump out with me, got it?" Xu Jiayi looked back at Cuiyun with a small face.

"Girl, how can this work, it's too dangerous." Cuiyun subconsciously shook her head.

She didn't have anything, but how could the girl do it.

"If it doesn't work, it has to work!" Xu Jiayi gritted her teeth, let Cuiyun slowly move to her side, and adjusted her posture to make it easier to jump out later.

Xu Jiayi lay on the carriage, staring closely outside, looking for a suitable position. Suddenly, when his eyes touched a straw pile on the side of the road, his eyes lit up, and he raised his voice, "Jump!" ”

As this voice sounded, Xu Jiayi and Cuiyun fell straight to the grass pile like arrow feathers launched out. Although Xu Jiayi aimed at the direction, there was still a slight deviation when it was actually operated, and although the straw pile had removed most of the power, it also made Xu Jiayi feel that her eyes were black.

Cuiyun was protected by Xu Jiayi and did not suffer any damage, as soon as she landed, she struggled to crawl out of the straw pile, knelt in front of Xu Jiayi, and helped Xu Jiayi up.

When Chu Changfeng caught up, he saw the two people jumping down from the carriage from a distance, and immediately panicked, and his legs clamped the horse's belly, "Drive!" ”

When the horse arrived next to Xu Jiayi and the others, he was relieved to see that although the two were injured, they were still alive, and glanced at the carriage in front of him, and the horse chased after him without the slightest stop, and went hand in hand with the horse driving the carriage. Then with a lift of his right hand, the sword cut the reins and separated the horse from the carriage.

The horses were no longer dragged by the carriages, but they had disappeared into the trees in a few or two strokes. The carriage slid forward some distance due to inertia, and then rolled on its side to the side of the road, its wheels still spinning in the air.

Chu Changfeng was silent, then turned around and rode back to the place where the two girls had fallen just now, turned over and dismounted.

"Girl!" Cuiyun's eyes were full of tears, but they had fallen in the blink of an eye, like pearls with broken threads, hugging Xu Jiayi and crying.

"Don't cry, isn't it okay?"

"Girl, do you feel unwell, do you hurt anything?" Cuiyun looked Xu Jiayi up and down, touched her hand and landed on her lap, crying, "What about here?" Does it hurt? ”

"Foot ......" Xu Jiayi wanted to stand up, but before she could exert herself, she couldn't help but gasp, her eyes were teary, and she whispered, "It seems that I hurt my foot." ”

"Feet." Cui Yun reacted and reached out to check.

Xu Jiayi moved her ankle slightly, and the pain that came made her bite her lip tightly, and the tears of pain were about to flow out. Cuiyun glanced back in the direction of the man, subconsciously blocking his vision.

Xu Jiayi moved slightly, turned her back to his gaze, and quietly lifted her trousers to take a look, only to find that her ankles were already swollen so high.

"Why is it so swollen." Cuiyun couldn't help but exclaim.

"I guess I just accidentally sprained it."

Chu Changfeng glanced at the woman sitting on the ground, and saw her small lump, a layer of mist appeared in her eyes that held back the pain, which was particularly endearing, and people couldn't help but feel soft, "This girl, I will treat some bruises, do you want me to help you take a look." ”

"This ......" Cuiyun was a little embarrassed.

Xu Jiayi lowered her eyes and thought for a while, "Then thank you for this son." ”

With permission, Chu Changfeng slowly squatted down, and after some inspection, he guessed that he should have dislocated his body when he just fell off the carriage. One hand covered Xu Jiayi's calf, pinched Xu Jiayi's foot with the other, and pushed Xu Jiayi's ankle with strength to move gently.

Since he was so old, in addition to himself, his feet were only touched by a few maids who were waiting close to him. Now that she was touched by a man she met for the first time, Xu Jiayi couldn't help blushing, tilted her head, and didn't dare to look directly into Chu Changfeng's eyes.

It's just that the pain in her ankle made her forget about her shame for a while, and she bit her lower lip to hold back the pain.

"Bear with me." Chu Changfeng's deep voice came, and before Xu Jiayi could understand what this sentence "endure and endure" meant, she only heard a "click" from the bones of her ankles, and tears burst out instantly, and she exhaled in pain, "Ah! ”

"What do you do!" Cuiyun hurriedly protected Xu Jiayi behind her, and regretted letting Chu Changfeng help. At first glance, this man looks like the five big and three thick Chinese characters in the barracks, and he doesn't know how to write pity and cherish jade!

Chu Changfeng let go of his hand and took two steps back, with a straight face, "Girl, try again, it should be fine." ”

Hearing this, Xu Jiayi tentatively moved her ankle, and found that it was indeed not as painful as just now, and couldn't help but be a little surprised, the amplitude of the movement was greater, although it still hurt, but it was much better than just now, and nodded slightly at Cuiyun.

I yelled at the other party just now, but now I realize that I made a mistake.

Cuiyun was a little embarrassed, and thanked the man for his short body, "Thank you for this son's help, just now the slave maid didn't understand the situation and misunderstood the son, and asked the son not to be surprised." ”

"It doesn't matter." Chu Changfeng paused, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, and stuffed the porcelain bottle into Cuiyun's hand, "This ointment is very useful, you apply it to your girl." ”

Cuiyun subconsciously turned her head to look at Xu Jiayi, not knowing whether to take it or not, and only after seeing Xu Jiayi nodding did she reach out and take it, squatting down and about to take medicine for Xu Jiayi, she suddenly thought of something and glanced back at Chu Changfeng.

Chu Changfeng was a little inexplicable by Cuiyun, and after thinking about it for a while, he realized that this woman in Yanjing City has the most important red tape etiquette, and this foot is not something that everyone can look at, but what else does it care about when he has already touched it just now. Even though he thought so, he still stood with his back to him.

Cuiyun carefully applied the ointment to Xu Jiayi's ankle.

Sure enough, it's a good medicine.

Xu Jiayi found that after applying the ointment, the injured area felt cold and comfortable, and she didn't feel too much pain when she moved her feet slightly.

Helping Cuiyun to stand up slowly, Xu Jiayi glanced at the man, and saluted respectfully and thanked him, "Thank you Gongzi for helping, it is better for Gongzi to leave his name, and when the little girl goes home, the elders of the family will come to the door to thank him in person." ”

This woman is also stunning, but Chu Changfeng's favorite thing is her eyes that seem to be able to speak. At this time, the tears of pain and moisture look particularly distressing. Chu Changfeng hurriedly averted his gaze, afraid that he couldn't help but surprise the girl.

Suddenly, she heard the sound of footsteps, Xu Jiayi's face changed, and she turned her head to look and found that it was the servant who had caught up, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Seeing that the woman was no longer in trouble, and the domestic servants had already followed, Chu Changfeng left a sentence, "No need." After that, he turned around and got on the horse, and mercilessly turned back to look for his own soldiers, and the dust raised by the horse's hooves gradually drowned Chu Changfeng's back.

The servants hurriedly chased after them, and although they saw a man riding away, the master did not say anything, and they did not ask. Several servants flipped the overturned carriage back, and Hou listened to the instructions from the sidelines and ordered. Uncle Wang chased after him, and looked at Xu Jiayi standing uprightly and crying with joy, "Girl, it's okay if you're fine, but you're scared to death of the old slave." ”

Cuiyun looked at Xu Jiayi's stunned appearance and whispered, "Girl? ”

Xu Jiayi came back to her senses when she heard this, "How is it over there?" ”

"Those soldiers are all first-class, the bandits are not their opponents at all, they are dead, they are running, and now the soldiers are cleaning up the official road."

"Well," Xu Jiayi replied lightly, relying on Cuiyun's support and slowly moving to the overturned carriage step by step, looking at the wheels on the left side of the carriage had slipped and rolled a long way, and her face was heavy.

Although it is not far from Yanjing City, if there is no carriage, she will have to go back to what year and month she will have to go back by relying on her injured legs!

Cuiyun also saw it, and immediately said to Uncle Wang, "Uncle Wang, the carriage is broken, you go and see if it can be repaired." ”

Uncle Wang went over and looked at it carefully and nodded, "It can be repaired, but it will take some time." And the horse has already run away, even if it is repaired, it can't be used......"

Xu Jiayi pursed her lips and stood in place, but she heard the sound of horses' hooves behind her, and when she looked back, she saw that it was the eight soldiers who had just saved their lives.

In addition to this, he also brought an empty horse.

One of the soldiers glanced at the carriage and handed the reins of another empty horse to Uncle Wang, "The master said that your horse should not be able to return if it runs away, so this horse will be given to you, and I am afraid that something will happen to you again, so let us escort the girl back." Don't worry, girl, we'll escort you to a crowded place and you'll leave. ”

"Girl......" Uncle Wang glanced at Xu Jiayi, a little undecided.

Cuiyun's eyes also fell on Xu Jiayi, seeing Xu Jiayi bowing slightly, Cuiyun looked at Uncle Wang and ordered, "In this case, Uncle Wang, you should do it quickly, don't cause trouble again if it's too late." ”

"Yes." After Uncle Wang finished speaking, he turned his head and instructed the little servant to repair the carriage.

Because of the robbers, the carriage broke down and repaired for a long time, and now the sun has sunset. If they don't return home before dark, I'm afraid my grandfather will have to worry about them.

Xu Jiayi waited patiently in her heart, and after about half an hour, Uncle Wang finally came over to report that the carriage had been repaired and could go home.

After the soldiers escorted Xu Jiayi and his party to the gate of Yanjing City, they said goodbye and left. Xu Jiayi stopped them and wanted to ask what their master's name was, but they didn't mention it, so they could only give up.
