The silence was finally broken by Chu Jin, and he finally took a step back, "Okay, this king will let you go, you have to ensure the safety of General Pingyuan, otherwise you ......"

Sure enough, it was Chu Jin, even at this time, he didn't forget the conditions for expelling him.

Gu Xici breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Chu Jin gave in, otherwise with her current situation, she might not have lasted long. She deliberately slashed General Pingyuan's throat with a dagger, in order to cover up her steady stream of blood with his blood.

She must not let the people around her find out that she is already at the end of her crossbow, and the whole process only relies on the consciousness of survival to negotiate with them.

"Okay, tell them all to get out of the way!" Gu Xici dragged General Pingyuan, got up and walked out.

As soon as Chu Jin waved his hand, all the soldiers immediately moved out of the way. At this moment, they also just breathed a sigh of relief, and the prince's hesitation just now made them worry about the general's life.

Gu Xici came out of the tent and couldn't help frowning when he looked at the large number of people and horses surrounding outside.

General Pingyuan's camp tent is on the outermost periphery, but it is close to the mountain behind it, but it is not close to the gate of the entire camp. And at this moment, there were soldiers all around, and Gu Xici was not at all sure that he could break out of the encirclement from these crowds.

And General Pingyuan also seemed to feel that Gu Xici's heart was more than enough and his strength was insufficient, and the pace under his feet was deliberately slowed down, wanting to waste time with her.

The old guy is really cunning! Gu Xici scolded secretly. She looked around her, but couldn't help but sweep to the cliff where she had just come down.

The rope she had just come down from was still tied to the tree, and instead of rushing to the door from here, it was better to hold her last breath and climb up from here, and maybe there would be a glimmer of life.

Having made up his mind in his heart, Gu Xici took General Pingyuan and walked inside.

Chu Jin followed the two, and for a moment he couldn't figure out the assassin's intentions.

"Do you need this king to help you prepare a horse, as long as you release the general, I will definitely let you leave the barracks safely." Chu Jin stood in front of everyone, but he had the demeanor of a king.

Hearing Chu Jin's words, Gu Xici couldn't help but sneer in his heart. Preparing for a horse? It's a good thing to say, she doesn't think that Chu Jin will prepare a good horse for her, Bacheng has done tricks, and as long as she leaves the camp, she will be besieged by them.

"You're stubborn, you have to catch me?" Gu Xici laughed at himself.

"Just do it for the people." Chu Jin said lightly.

And General Pingyuan, who became a hostage, was far less calm than Chu Jin, and couldn't help but roar: "You turtle grandson, you have the ability to show your face!" You are doing evil in my Great Chu Country, King Zhao is doing harm for the people, whether it is the saint or the people of the world, they will raise a glass to his behavior tonight! ”

It turns out that everything he does is for the emperor and his subjects! She hadn't seen it before, this Chu Jin was such a person chasing fame and fortune, not only that, but he was also a scheming person, and he had hidden such thoughts for so long, if it weren't for today, she would have been kept in the dark.

"Shut up for me, say half a word more and I'll let you die here right now!"

General Pingyuan didn't expect Gu Xici's momentum to be so strong, and he was suddenly suppressed by her momentum. After waiting for a while, I realized what had just happened, and I was immediately angry.

He has been leading the army on the battlefield for most of his life, and he doesn't know how many enemy troops he has repulsed, but he didn't expect to be threatened by this hairy boy today! Not only that, but he was so coerced by him as a hostage, and he lost face in front of so many people!

Such humiliation made him unwilling in his heart, he didn't know how to face the soldiers of the three armies in the future, it was better to decide on his own now!

General Pingyuan's eyes sank, and he slammed into the blade with all his strength against the dagger on his neck.

At this moment, as if he had expected it, the hand holding the dagger was loosened, and the other hand did not know what he was grasping, and the soldiers only felt that the figure in front of them flickered, and General Pingyuan was pushed in front of everyone by the assassin, and the assassin disappeared at this moment.

"What about people!" Realizing that the assassin was missing, everyone hurriedly looked around, but found no assassin.

And Chu Jin, who was standing not far away, quickly discovered the mystery. In the darkness of the night, the clattering bushes on the mountain confirmed his thoughts.

"He's on it, go up the mountain and outflank him!" Chu Jin instructed the soldiers to go up the mountain from the outside, but he was close to the mountain, and as he expected, he really touched a rope.

Gu Xici endured the pain in his body and relied on his last will to climb up the rope. I don't know if it's the instinctive will to survive that stimulates her, and the belief in her heart supports her to climb to the top.

Gu Xi couldn't look back at the bottom, just thinking about leaving here as soon as possible. As everyone knows, Chu Jin followed behind her and climbed to the top of the mountain along the rope.

"You can't escape, just grab it." Chu Jin's voice sounded behind her, so cold that it made her a little desperate.

The climb just now had exhausted Gu Xici's last strength, and now as long as Chu Jin ran two steps slightly, he could catch her back.

But the will to survive made Gu Xiqi keep moving forward until he came to the cliff on the other side of the mountain.

"There's no way back." That cold voice appeared again, making Gu Xici have a headache.

Looking at the cliff below, Gu Xici couldn't help but want to laugh. At this time, she wished that someone would lend her a helping hand, but she knew that it was not possible.

Since the day she became a killer, she has been used to being alone, and she has never felt that there is anything wrong with living alone. But at this time, in the deepest part of her heart, she was so desperate that someone could save her, so that she could fall into his arms and sleep unscrupulously at such a critical time.

The clothes behind her were already soaked, and she didn't know if it was sweat or blood, dripping down her body.

Looking at the cliff in front of him, Gu Xici slowly turned around as if he had figured out something.

Chu Jin had been following her, watching her turn around, staring at her dark eyes, and suddenly felt a little dazed, "Has this king seen you somewhere?" ”

"Oh? Is it? Gu Xici clenched his palms, his nails were already embedded in the flesh, so as to hold on. Chu Jin's words shocked her heart, and her originally somewhat loose consciousness gradually closed.

"You were the one who was in Wanhualou last time." Chu Jin said firmly.

"But last time you helped me, and this time you're going to kill me." Hearing Chu Jin say this, Gu Xici breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help laughing.

"You are burdened with the lives of many court officials, and it is impossible for this king to let you go."

The wind on the cliff was extraordinarily noisy, and the corners of their clothes were blown by the wind. Gu Xici's night clothes were already a little tattered because of the fight just now, like the battle flag destroyed by the enemy on the battlefield; And the man standing opposite her was still dressed in white, as if the two had just met, clean and not stained with a trace of dust.

"They're coming up right away, you can't go." Chu Jin was stating a fact, in his opinion, this person was already unable to fly.

He approached Gu Xici step by step, and the other party followed step by step backwards, as if he didn't know that there was a cliff behind him.

"Until the last minute, you can't tell the winner after all, can you?" Gu Xici looked at Chu Jin with a smile, "Don't forget, you are much more valuable than that general, if I hold you hostage, I'm not afraid that they won't let me go." ”

Hearing Gu Xici say this, Chu Jin showed a peach-blossom smile on his face, and instantly confused her eyes, "I, it's not as easy as you think." ”

Chu Jin pulled out the soft sword that had been wrapped around his waist, the sharp sword light flashed Gu Xici's eyes, and with a wave of the long sword, it swung towards the woman in front of him.

Gu Xici never expected Chu Jin's speed to be so fast, and before she could react, her feet subconsciously took a step back, only to feel that a breeze was blowing on her face, and the face towel that was originally blocking her was picked up by the long sword.

Everything was beyond Gu Xici's expectations, and he quickly turned his face and didn't dare to let him see it, but he never thought that his feet would slip, and the whole person's center of gravity was unstable and fell down the cliff.

Gu Xici's eyes couldn't help but enlarge, under the cliff was an abyss, and she fell from here, there was a possibility that she would be crushed.

I don't know why, at this moment, Gu Xici has never been more relaxed. She slowly closed her eyes, and the grievances and unwillingness in her heart dissipated with the wind in her ears.

Be an ordinary person in your next life! Gu Xici muttered in her heart, but this simple idea was what she wanted the most but never got it.

Just as she was ready to be crushed, her arm was grabbed by a strong force, and her body, which was supposed to fall, stopped in midair.

Gu Xici opened his eyes and stared at the familiar and somewhat unfamiliar face facing him.

"Let go."

While hearing her voice, Chu Jin couldn't help but be stunned.

"You're a woman?"

Gu Xici also woke up suddenly from her daze, at the moment of life and death, she had already put the masking voice in the back of her mind, so that Chu Jin heard her original voice.

"Who the hell are you!" Chu Jin didn't see her face clearly in the dark, but this voice made him feel inexplicably familiar.

Just when Chu Jin was struggling to figure out who this person was, the hand that was suddenly held in his palm actually struggled to break free from his confinement.

Chu Jin's eyes narrowed, and he didn't have time to make other judgments, the whole person rushed towards the falling figure, and when he successfully grabbed the man's arm, his other hand also successfully climbed on the rock.

But before Chu Jin could breathe a sigh of relief, the hand fell down very disobediently. The blood had already stained his palm, as if it was a lubricant, and Chu Jin watched as the man fell, from his original arm to his wrist.

"Hold on to me!" Chu Jin seemed to have sensed that the man had no intention of survival, and took the initiative to let go of the hand he was holding hard.

But even so, Chu Jin was unwilling to let go, and used all his strength to keep her in this world. I don't know why, there seems to be someone in his ear who keeps telling him not to let go, and his heart has never been so scared as it is today.

Gu Xici's mood was a little complicated, she had no hope of life for a long time, but just when she wanted to give up, Chu Jin actually tried her best to catch herself.

She could clearly feel that the place connected to her was trembling slightly, but even so, the man still didn't let go.

Gu Xici thinks she is wrong to blame Chu Jin? If it was just for the emperor, he wouldn't have to do it to this point, and if she fell off this cliff, she would only have a dead end, which would not delay Chu Jin from using her to invite credit.

But now......

Gu Xici didn't dare to think about it further, that kind of thought should not appear in her mind from beginning to end.

In this life, she is just the concubine of the Gu family, but the other party is the prince, not to mention how much difference there is between her and his identity, even if she and his current situation do not allow her to have such thoughts.

Maybe when she simply becomes the third lady of the prime minister's family one day, and he is just the original King Zhao who keeps to himself, there may still be a glimmer of possibility between them.

It's a pity what kind of person Chu Jin is, Gu Xici hasn't seen it clearly until now. Tonight, Chu Jin's various things made her have to re-examine this delicate King Zhao in people's mouths, and all her desires were hidden deep in this man's heart, so that others could not see his true face at all.

Such a Zhao King is very dangerous for Gu Xici.

She knows that once a person puts his true heart on another person, he will never be able to get it back. If the other party cherishes this heart and collects it as a treasure, it is the best, but if the other party does not love it at all, it may be trampled on the soles of their feet in the next second, and even to the point of no return.

These are all learned by Gu Xici with his own life. The mistakes made in the previous life cannot be repeated in this life.

Therefore, even if a person's path is full of loneliness, it is better than always being afraid that he will be betrayed by those around him.

Looking at the hands of the two slowly separating, Gu Xici closed his eyes.

"Gu girl!" Suddenly, a voice drifted into her ears along the wind.

This voice was like a heavenly sound, waking up Gu Xici, who was almost sleeping.

"Master?" Gu Xici never thought that it would be his master Qianmian Langjun who saved him at this time.

Chu Jin was still struggling to hold Gu Xici's hand, although his entire arm had begun to go numb, he was unwilling to give up. Suddenly, I heard Gu Xici seem to be muttering something, but the wind was too strong to hear clearly.

"Girl, let go and jump down, don't be afraid, the teacher will catch you below!" The voice full of bewitchment sounded in Gu Xici's ears again, and for a moment she couldn't tell whether this was an illusion or a reality?

"Master, are you really there?" Gu Xici asked uncertainly.
