Along the way, the coachman drove the carriage according to Gu Jinli's instructions.

Leaving the city, he passed through a wooded area when he encountered a group of Assassins.

The coachman was shot in the chest with an arrow and died instantly.

The Secret Guard, who had been hiding in the shadows, immediately appeared and fought the Assassins.

Aiyue was so frightened that she protected Gu Jinli, and the faces of both of them were a little pale.

"Concubine Gu, there are assassins!" Qin Feng brandished his sword and did not forget to shout to Gu Jinli in the carriage.

Lifting the corner of the curtain, Aiyue's voice trembled: "Master, what should I do now?" ”

Gu Jinli held Aiyue's hand tightly, and immediately made a decision.

"Get out of the car!" With that, she pulled Aiyue and jumped out of the carriage, and the two of them tried to run deep into the forest with their skirts.

The Assassins besieging Qin Feng spotted Gu Jinli and Aiyue escaping, and several of them held their bows and arrows and shot their arrows at them.

Several other Assassins followed closely.

Qin Feng was shocked and wanted to find a gap to get out of the encirclement, but the assassins didn't give him the slightest chance to slip out.

With a "snap", Aiyue's calf was shot by a sharp arrow.

She screamed in pain and fell to the ground.

"Love Moon!" Gu Jinli hurriedly helped Aiyue up, and when she saw that the assassins were about to arrive in front of her, she said nervously: "Hold on, you must hold on!" ”

Black blood oozed from Aizuki's wounds, and her vision gradually blurred.

was dragged by Gu Jinli, and Aiyue said in a weak voice: "Lord...... Master, I can't do it anymore. ”

"You're ...... Run, don't worry about ......"

"Whoosh", another arrow, this time it shot Aiyue's heart.

Using her last bit of strength, she pushed Gu Jinli's hand away, "Master, run!" ”

"Love Moon!" Suddenly, a bad premonition swept through her body, Gu Jinli exclaimed, and then looked at Aiyue and leaned back straight.

"Lord...... The master ...... "Aiyue stretched out her hand to Gu Jinli, opened her mouth, and before she finished speaking, blood flowed from her mouth.

The hand slowly fell, and she closed her eyes.

Ignoring the oncoming murderous aura, Gu Jinli choked up while holding Aiyue in her arms: "Aiyue, Aiyue!" ”

Aiyue didn't react, and her limp body didn't move.

The assassin dodged and landed beside Gu Jinli, raising his hand to stab the long sword in his hand towards Gu Jinli.

Gu Jinli was immersed in deep sadness at this time, and she had forgotten her fear at all.

"Ding", as the sword was close at hand, a dart struck the Assassin's wrist.

The long sword fell to the ground, and Gu Jinli reacted.

Immediately after, a masked man stood in front of Gu Jinli and circled with the assassins.

A flash of light flashed in her mind, and Gu Jinli immediately took out the medicine bottle from her arms and stuffed all the pills into Aiyue's mouth.

Then, she put her hand on Aiyue's pulse and calmed herself down in her heart over and over again.

Holding her breath and concentrating, she finally found Aiyue's faint pulse.

On the other side, there were not many of Qi Hao's secret guards left, and there were corpses lying next to the carriage.

Most of the assassins moved to the battlefield and came to Gu Jinli's side.

Only three or five assassins were still entangled with Qin Feng, who was seriously injured but still struggling to support himself.

As a result, nearly two dozen assassins began to gather forces to besiege the masked man who had been killed halfway.

Although Gu Jinli didn't know who this masked man was, whether it was a coincidence or a premeditated appearance here, since he could save her, it meant that he was not an enemy for the time being.

And these assassins are extraordinary, ruthless and undisciplined.

The masked man has been able to survive unscathed until now, which is already very powerful, not to mention killing a few assassins.

Without thinking too much, she put Aiyue's arm on her shoulder and walked under the big tree beside her.

Away from the encirclement, she looked at the sharp arrow on Aiyue's back and worried.

The position where this arrow hit was very fatal, and if she took the liberty to pull out the arrow, I am afraid that Aiyue would die if she was not careful.

However, if you don't pull it out, Aiyue is also in danger of her life.

Gu Jinli really didn't know what to do, gritting her teeth, she made up her mind and decided to take a gamble.

Recalling the acupuncture points on the medical book, she first tried to press a few big points on Aiyue's body.

She only knows the location of the acupuncture points on her body, but she can't point the acupuncture points.

However, some acupuncture points can be massaged to achieve the corresponding effect, so Gu Jinli can only take a risk.

"Rakla", after tearing a strip of cloth from her sleeve, she pressed Aiyue's wound with one hand and held the arrow feather with the other.

He took a deep breath and pulled the arrow out with all his might.

Seeing that the blood from the wound was so large that she couldn't suppress it, Gu Jinli panicked and hurriedly bandaged her.

Realizing that the Masked Man was extraordinary, the Assassins gave up the fight, threw a smoke bomb, and fled in a hurry.

The masked man's gaze fell on Gu Jinli for a moment, then strode over and clicked on Aiyue's acupoint.

"Da Da Da", there was a sound of horses' hooves getting closer and closer, and the masked man turned his head, only to see Qi Hao waving a horse whip, and he was coming towards this side with a solemn face.

Glancing at Gu Jinli deeply, the masked man tapped his toes and flew away.

"Qi Hao......" Gu Jinli went along the prestige, and when she saw that the person who came was Qi Hao, she was overjoyed.

"Poof" stood up, as if he saw hope.

Qi Hao also saw Gu Jinli, he took off from the horse, and landed in front of Gu Jinli with a light skill.

"Ah Gu!" The air was filled with a strong smell of blood, and seeing that Gu Jinli was stained with a lot of blood, Qi Hao hurriedly said, "Are you injured?" ”

Gu Jinli shook her head, her tense nerves relaxed, she threw herself into his arms, and said sadly: "It's not me, it's Aiyue ......"

Qi Hao looked at Aiyue, and then at the corpses of the assassins lying on the ground, and suddenly his pupils shrank.

The Assassins were dressed in black, and there was no sign of what they were wearing.

However, Qi Hao noticed that the boots worn by the Assassins were embroidered with a dark pattern like an eagle.

Clenching his fists, anger rolling between his eyebrows.

"Qi Hao?" Sensing the strangeness of Qi Hao's mood, Gu Jinli raised her head and looked at him inexplicably.

Du Jiang also saw the dark lines on the boots, and was shocked.

Very few people know that the old emperor has privately raised a group of top killers.

And the identity credentials of those killers are this eagle.

Therefore, the person who assassinated Gu Jinli this time turned out to be the old emperor!

Such a realization made Qi Hao and Du Jiang both angry and surprised.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Qi Hao waved his hand to Du Jiang behind him and said, "Go, take Aiyue and find Xiaoyaozi!" ”

After returning to the Fuyuan Temple, he was very unsure when he saw the note left on the table.

Although he sent a secret guard by Gu Jinli's side, he was always worried about this and that.

Fidgeting, he rode after him.

Unexpectedly, halfway through the chase, I saw a distress signal from the secret guard.

It's just that he came a step too late, and there was already a masked man who relieved Gu Jinli's crisis.

Since you are going to Yoyo Valley, then simply find Xiaoyaozi to heal Aiyue.

Although Aiyue is seriously injured and her life hangs by a thread, as long as Xiaoyaozi is there, then her chances of survival will be greater.

As for the matter of the old emperor poisoning Gu Jinli this time, he will think about it again after going to Youyou Valley and returning to the palace.

Since only Gu Jinli knew the location of Youyou Valley, Qi Hao and her rode in front to lead the way, and Du Jiang followed behind on a horse with Aiyue in his arms.

And Qin Feng, who was seriously injured, was taken back to the palace directly.

After all, his life will not be in danger for a while, and the cute moon is different, and he may die anytime and anywhere.

After about a cup of tea, the four of them found Youyogu smoothly at once.

It's just that when they arrived at the mouth of the valley, they found that they seemed to have been set up in a formation, and they couldn't enter the valley no matter how they went around.

While they were anxious, an old voice came from nowhere: "Who is coming, and why did you trespass into the valley without permission?" ”

This voice is transmitted by internal force, which shows that the other party's skills are profound.

Qi Hao and Gu Jinli heard that this was Xiaoyaozi's voice, and immediately said loudly: "Xiaoyaozi senior, in Xia Qihao, I have something important to visit Miss Lin." ”

Xiaoyaozi is a miracle doctor, and when Qi Hao talks to him, he naturally can't be as casual as his attitude towards the clear space.

The girl Lin in his mouth is naturally Lin Sheng.

Xiaoyaozi listened, but there was no response.

Qi Hao saw that Xiaoyaozi was not moving, and waited for a while, so he had to continue to try to find the entrance again.

After discovering a path hidden in the shadows, they realized that Xiaoyaozi had unknowingly withdrawn the formation.

Next, following Xiaoyaozi's voice instructions, they found a courtyard.

In the courtyard, Xiaoyaozi squatted on the ground to decoct medicine, while Gu Sheng was lying on the soft collapse, with a book covering his face.

"Xiaoyaozi senior, we ......" arched his hand, Qi Hao was about to speak, but he heard Xiaoyaozi say: "Help people into the house, and I'll show her later." ”

Only swept Aiyue who was held in Du Jiang's arms with his residual vision, and Xiaoyaozi understood the purpose of their coming.

Du Jiang helped Aiyue to the back of the house, and Xiaoyaozi came in with his hind feet.

After rolling Aiyue's eyelids and pulling out the pulse, Xiaoyaozi looked at Gu Jinli meaningfully, and said slowly: "Although the wound was treated in a hurry, it was better in time." ”

With that, he put out the golden needles in the medicine box and began to acupuncture Aiyue.

After Gu Jinli heard Xiaoyaozi's words, she hurriedly said, "There are seniors." ”

Although she was thinking about Aiyue, Gu Jinli's eyes moved with his movements when Xiaoyaozi was applying needles.

While watching, she quickly thought about which acupuncture points were used with needles and the depth of the needles pierced, and memorized them one by one in her heart.

When all the golden needles were used up, Xiaoyaozi gave up.

Standing up, he said, "I will wake up in half an hour, don't worry too much about Concubine Gu." ”

Gu Jinli is Feng Se's daughter, the last time she played the piano in the Desperate Cliff, Xiaoyaozi originally planned to take this opportunity to take her back as an apprentice, cultivate her well, and take care of her for Feng Se.

It's a pity that she rejected Xiaoyaozi.

Today, it is probably the first official meeting between the two people.

Gu Jinli quietly looked at Xiaoyaozi and nodded, "Thank you seniors." ”

If it weren't for Lin Sheng's medicine, Xiaoyaozi would definitely have a good chat with Gu Jinli.

It's just that now Lin Sheng's sleepiness is not only getting longer and longer, but also some other problems in his body.

For example, memory loss is severe, and often breathlessness and dizziness.

As a master, Xiaoyaozi must do his best to develop a new medicine to alleviate Lin Sheng's symptoms.

The cruel reality does not allow him to waste another moment of time.

Seeing Xiaoyaozi turn around and leave the room, Gu Jinli sat down next to the bed and guarded Aiyue.

"Ah Gu, you are tired all the way, otherwise take a nap, and I will watch Aiyue for you." Pointing to the soft collapse on the side, Qi Hao said intimately.

Gu Jinli shook her head, looked at Aiyue's little face, and said in a low voice, "I can't sleep." ”

Qi Hao knew the relationship between Gu Jinli and Aiyue, sighed, and couldn't persuade her to do anything, so he could only pour her a cup of tea, and said, "If you don't sleep, at least you have to drink some water." ”

Gu Jinli said "um", took a sip of tea, and asked, "Aren't you in the barracks?" How did it end up in the woods? ”

Qi Hao snorted lightly and glared at Gu Jinli dissatisfied, "Are you embarrassed to say, do you think you can leave a note and come out at will?" ”

"I've told you many times that you're not alone now, and you have to always think about your own safety, but you always turn a deaf ear to my words."

Listening to Qi Hao's complaining tone, Gu Jinli explained: "You have had a lot of things recently, and I was afraid of disturbing you, so I came out with Aiyue." ”

Qi Hao raised his hand and flicked it on Gu Jinli's head, and warned: "Don't take it as an example." ”

Gu Jinli rubbed her head, "It hurts." ”

"It's good that it hurts, or you won't have a long memory." Holding Gu Jinli into his arms, Qi Hao murmured, "Do you know? I can't believe what would happen to you if I went one step too late. ”

After a pause, he remembered the masked man and asked, "By the way, who is the person who saved you?" ”

Gu Jinli thought about it for a while and said truthfully: "I don't know, he wears a mask and doesn't speak, so it's hard to guess his identity." ”

"Could it be...... Is it Gu Chengen? Qi Hao's eyes moved slightly, and then he denied himself: "No, Gu Chengen has been busy with Jiang Yuansheng's affairs for the past two days, it shouldn't be him." ”

couldn't think of a result for a while, so Qi Hao had to pinch Gu Jinli's face again, "There are too many people who secretly have bad intentions towards you, and it may be another rotten peach blossom." ”

"Don't talk nonsense, maybe someone just happened to pass by, and the road was uneven." Gu Jinli slapped Qi Hao's hand away, moved her gaze back to Aiyue, and said with emotion: "I found that almost every time I go out, there will be some accidents nine times out of ten, and it seems that there are really many people who want my life." ”

Gu Jinli just said this casually.

However, it was very unpleasant to listen to Qi Hao's ears.

His thin lips pursed tightly, and he said after a while: "Ah Gu, I have put you in danger again." ”

"Huh?" Gu Jinli looked at Qi Hao in confusion, caught a "again" herself, and asked, "How do you say this?" ”

Qi Hao moved her lips, but she couldn't tell him the truth that the old emperor was going to kill her.

Holding Gu Jinli's hand, he lied: "If I hadn't gone to the barracks today, but had come to Youyou Valley with you, maybe you wouldn't have been assassinated." ”

"Aiyue won't get hurt, and you won't be scared."

Gu Jinli patted Qi Hao's hand and comforted: "You don't have to blame yourself, fortunately, Aiyue can be fine, thank God." ”

"Besides, you didn't send the assassins, so don't think about it."

Qi Hao sighed unconsciously, and the guilt in his heart deepened.

In the white jade building, Chen Zexuan took off the mask on his face when he returned from the woods, and said slowly to the man in black: "Master, the old emperor has done something to her. ”

When he mentioned the old emperor, his eyes were full of frost.

After hearing this, the man in black said unexpectedly: "The old emperor did it?" ”

After pondering for a moment, he continued: "Perhaps, the old emperor has already found out her identity, so he wants to cut the grass and eradicate the roots. ”

"Moreover, the old emperor's favorite candidate for the throne should be Qi Hao. Therefore, for a disaster like her, the old emperor will not let her appear by Qi Hao's side again. ”

"Master, what should I do then?" As soon as he heard that Gu Jinli's life was threatened, Chen Zexuan hurriedly asked, "Otherwise, tell her about her life experience?" So that she can plan ahead? ”

The man in black shook his head, and used the verbal phrase that was often on his lips, and said ambiguously: "No, it's not the time yet, wait a minute." ”

"Master......" Because the man in black always prevaricates himself with the word "opportunity", Chen Zexuan's heart is becoming more and more bottomless, and he can't help but say: "Can you not involve her in our plan, let her live a peaceful and happy life, isn't it?" ”

"I ...... I don't want to get her involved. ”

The pain can be shared, but he prefers to carry everything silently on his own.

He was used to living in the dark, so he didn't want to pull Gu Jinli into the swamp and become a puppet of hatred.

It's just that a person is suffering, he doesn't want Gu Jinli to suffer too.

The man in black sneered and looked at Chen Zexuan like a fool, "Xuan, you are really getting more and more naïve." ”

"Innocent, cute."

"With her relationship with Feng Guo, how do you think the master can let her be left alone and leave things out of the way!"

"Master......" Chen Zexuan's heart trembled, and he was powerless to refute.

Because he knew that since it was the man in black who decided something, then it could no longer be changed.

"Okay, what has already been decided, don't look ahead and backward." The man in black stood up and said slowly: "The old emperor can't be assassinated once, there must be a back-up move, you send someone to keep an eye on it." ”

"She's had a big impact on our plans, and nothing can happen to us."

"Yes, I know." Chen Zexuan answered and watched the man in black leave.

In the valley, Aiyue woke up, but quickly fell asleep again because of the effect of the medicine.

Gu Jinli saw that Aiyue had woken up and became conscious, so she left the room and prepared to chat with Lin Sheng.

However, from the moment she and Qi Hao entered the house, Lin Sheng maintained one movement and lay on the soft collapse.

However, after coming out, Lin Sheng seemed to have never moved, and still maintained his original posture.

Gu Jinli sat down beside Lin Sheng and whispered tentatively, "Lin Sheng." ”

Lin Sheng didn't react as if he hadn't heard it.

Seeing Xiaoyaozi drying the medicine in a bowl, her intuition told her that this medicine was for Gu Sheng.

"Senpai." With some questions, Gu Jinli turned her head and asked, "Is Miss Lin unwell?" ”

Xiaoyaozi wiped his hands for a while, and it took a while to calm down his voice: "Well, it's a little typhoid fever, it's not in the way, and the concubine is worried." ”

Sitting down, he looked at Gu Jinli quietly, just like the mood of the Master of Pure Space when he saw Gu Jinli a few days ago, he had to sigh that Gu Jinli had grown open, and he could really see at a glance that there was a phoenix on his body.

Remembering that she had just heard Gu Jinli say that she had met an assassin on the way here, Xiaoyaozi asked, "Do you know the identity of the assassin?" ”

Gu Jinli shook her head, "I don't know, but the martial arts are very powerful, and the person behind it should not be an ordinary person." ”

Xiaoyaozi's expression was complicated, and he said slowly: "Recently, there has been turmoil in Beijing, and Concubine Gu needs to be careful in everything. ”

"Thank you, senior, I will." Regarding Xiaoyaozi's concern, Gu Jinli said sincerely.

Sticking his hand to the outside of the bowl to check the temperature, Xiaoyaozi should feed Lin Sheng medicine.

It's just that because of the presence of Qi Hao and Gu Jinli, he can't take away the book that was blocking Lin Sheng's face.

Because, once they took the book, they would find that Lin Sheng's face at this time was whiter than the wall.

This kind of whiteness does not look like the symptoms of common typhoid fever.

Therefore, Xiaoyaozi can only feed the medicine after Gu Jinli and Qi Hao are gone.

Glancing outside, he made an excuse and said, "Okay, it's not too early, Concubine Gu and Prince Ning should go back quickly." ”

"Don't worry about Aiyue, I'll send someone to send her back to the palace tomorrow."

Hearing Xiaoyaozi's eviction order, Gu Jinli and Qi Hao couldn't continue to stay.

However, Aiyue did have to stay with Xiaoyaozi first.

Because she was seriously injured, she was not suitable for bumpy roads.

Moreover, Xiaoyaozi has all kinds of miracle medicines here, and Gu Jinli is completely relieved.

got up and saluted Xiaoyaozi, and Qi Hao and Gu Jinli left hand in hand.

The valley of the living people, who had not entered for many years, suddenly regained its tranquility.

Xiaoyaozi took the book away from Lin Sheng's face, pushed her shoulder, and called, "Sheng'er, it's time to take medicine." ”

Lin Sheng slept very hard, and it wasn't until Xiaoyaozi shouted patiently five or six times that he finally opened his hazy sleepy eyes.

"Master, is it time to take medicine again?" With a big yawn, Lin Sheng sat up.

Xiaoyaozi brought the pill to Lin Sheng and said, "I changed the prescription for this medicine, you can try it again." ”

Lin Sheng glanced at the coffee table, his eyes widened, and asked, "Master, is there anyone from the valley?" ”

In addition to himself and Xiaoyaozi, there seem to be two more cups on the coffee table.

Xiaoyaozi said: "Well, King Ning and Concubine Gu came to visit you just now. ”

"Huh?" Lin Sheng lowered his head and drank the medicine, and after hearing Xiaoyaozi's words, he almost squirted out the decoction in his mouth, and asked repeatedly: "You mean, King Ning and Concubine Fang have been here?" ”

Xiaoyaozi pointed to the room and said, "They met the assassin on the road, and Concubine Gu's maid was injured, and when she was sent over, she saw that you were still asleep, so she left first." ”

"Oh", Lin Sheng's expression was a little regretful.

Xiaoyaozi comforted: "Sheng'er, it doesn't matter if you don't see you this time, your illness will be cured soon, and then you and Concubine Gu will have a chance to meet." ”

Lin Sheng pulled his lips, and his eyelids began to heaviness again.

Drinking the bitter medicinal soup, she yawned for a long time, "Master...... Master, I'll sleep again, don't call me anymore. ”

Xiaoyaozi's eyes flashed with tears, and he endured the sad "um" sound.
