Volume 1 Origin Chapter 388 The Fight in the Grove
The next day, it was cloudy, and the dark clouds regrouped, pressing the western sky black, as if they were falling at any moment. Yesterday's warm sun was shining, and all of a sudden it was gone, as if it was just a dream.
At the gate of the city, as the corpses were transported out, the mournful cries of the people resounded throughout the world, and passers-by heard the same sorrow.
The snow mixed with blood on the streets in the capital has been cleared, but the traces left on it can still be vaguely seen, as if it is constantly reminding everyone that it is the desperate Chinese New Year's Eve.
Many people know that such a tragic night must take countless nights to slowly suppress the sadness, but life still has to go on.
The farewell procession is particularly huge, with the official government officials opening the way in front, and there are guards along the way to maintain order.
Because the corpse was to be transported, the gate on the west side of the city was specially opened, and the soldiers guarding the gate dutifully checked everyone who left the city, and when the two coffins were pushed over, he stepped forward and stopped: "Wait a minute." β
Some elderly family members faltered, and cried, "My poor child, why are you dead, leaving us two behind, how can we live......
Most of the corpses were lying on the rudimentary wooden planks, and suddenly there were two coffins, and the soldiers guarding the door felt that something was abnormal, and the upper ones could be explained, and the remnants of the Red Spider Sect were active in the city, and the coffin was the best thing to hide.
"Open it and take a look." The soldier guarding the door said, pointing to the coffin.
The family wiped their tears and said heartbrokenly: "Everyone is dead, what else is going on? β
In this way, the people behind could only stop, and for a while a dense crowd of people gathered at the city gate, and the soldiers guarding the gate said in a strong tone: "Open the coffin and check it." β
The gray-haired old man raised his head, tears flowed down his eyes, and he said with sorrow in his eyes: "Inside is my daughter, she is dead, but you still want to humiliate her, how can you bear it!" β
The old woman next to her was crying uncontrollably, and the whole person was about to faint, and she leaned on the old man with no strength.
The soldier guarding the door frowned, and didn't go to talk nonsense with him, but stretched out his hand and waved, attracting other people, and knocked on the coffin board on the top in three or two clicks, which provoked the old man to be heartbroken, and stomped his feet to the sky and cried bitterly.
"What does it smell like?" The soldier sniffed his nose and felt a strange faint scent.
The old man had an expression of sadness greater than death, stretched out his hand and touched the coffin tremblingly, buried his head in his arm and cried: "My daughter was poisoned beyond her eyes, and her body was even more foul-smelling, the old man couldn't bear to let his daughter go like this, so he prepared a coffin for the two of them, and added spices to it, that is, he passed away, and the old man also hoped that they would go peacefully and beautifully." β
Just as the soldiers lifted the coffin board, one of them looked at it, and his facial expression was very strange, as if he had seen a ghost, and after saying it to the others, several people put the coffin back on.
"I'm sorry, old man, you can go." The soldier guarding the gate waved his hand to get out of the way of the gun, and said, "However, the remnants of the Red Spider Sect are still causing chaos in the city, and I also ask all the fathers and villagers to pay attention to safety." β
This sentence not only explains the reason why they blocked the road and opened the coffin, but also gives each other an explanation, the people are already immersed in sadness, who will be entangled more about this.
Outside the city, the long procession stretched for several miles, with the people of the government carrying the corpses, and the family members supporting each other and crying incessantly.
No one noticed, and several figures quietly fled from the group.
The men galloped all the way to the grove outside the city, and two of them carried one on each of them, and when they got to the place, they threw the people on their bodies to the ground.
"It's still the water lady and Sister Sequoia who have a way, otherwise we wouldn't be able to get out of the city so easily." There were seven or eight in this line, except for the water lady and the woman in yellow, the others were the women of Yuanliu Fangzhai who they contacted in the past two days.
One of them looked at the people on the ground, picked up the short sword in his hand and pointed at it, "These two are too cumbersome, why don't you kill them now?" β
The woman in yellow squatted down, lifted the mask on Rong Ruo's head, looked at her face in a good mood, that is, her masterpiece, hooked her lips and said with a smile: "Fortunately, I got the bone erosion powder from the demon girl, which of you can still see the demeanor of the once first beauty in the capital?" β
Everyone else laughed gloatingly, and now Rong Ruo's face was all ruined, dozens of times uglier than the woman in yellow who pretended to be an ugly woman with a freckled face.
Shui Niang looked behind and said, "This side is not far from the capital, let's make plans to leave as soon as possible, otherwise the people from Jingwangfu will be in trouble if they track it down." β
"For this ugly girl?" A touch of contempt flashed in the eyes of the woman in yellow, her hand shook off Rong Ruo's face, Rong Ruo, who was unconscious, lowered her head unconsciously, tilted to the side, and the woman in yellow said: "Who in the world does not love beautiful women, I want to see if King Jing can still have a little pity when he sees her now." β
But her most regrettable thing is that this kind of bone eclipse powder can't be used on the face of the demon girl, if the master treats the demon girl with hatred, she feels very happy.
Another woman said: "It's too troublesome to take two, it's okay to keep one, let me take this to the forest inside and kill it." "Beanie box
After everyone summed it up, she felt that it might be a little useful to have Rong Ruo by her side, after all, she still had the title of King Jing's fiancΓ©e, Shui Niang looked at the woman in yellow and said, "I knew this was the case, you shouldn't have ruined her appearance." "At least if there is beauty, it can be guaranteed that King Jing will be jealous of this.
"Heh, what you said is simple, what if it wasn't a fake show, so that people could see the flaws?" Although it is okay to disguise, but there is no real one to reduce the risk, in case it is seen, they can still get out of the city smoothly?
The one who had entered the grove with the sugar pill did not come back for a long time, and the water lady pointed to another and said, "You go and see." β
But this time when the people went in, there was no sound, and they couldn't help but be a little puzzled, and the woman in yellow muttered for a moment, "Let's go together, be careful, and pay attention to the surrounding environment." β
The woman in yellow dragged Rong Ruo slowly into the depths of the grove, the branches of the trees withered in winter, but the branches were very densely entangled, stepping on the thick pile of leaves, and there was a rustling sound in the ears.
Several people looked at each other, and a touch of surprise flowed from the bottom of their eyes, what about people? The two of them just now, why are they gone?
"Be careful!" At this time, a different gust of wind stirred, and the woman in yellow was a sword with her backhand, but it was cut into the air.
Rong Ruo woke up from such a shaking, she first felt the pain of her face burning, and then opened her eyes, and the world turned upside down in her eyes.
After fighting for a while, the woman in yellow shouted, "Oh no, someone is coming from behind." "They don't know who they're fighting against, and if they have pursuers, it's a siege.
At that moment, the water lady was the first to react and said: "Withdraw from the right." β
The woman in yellow picked up Rong Ruo and swept behind Shui Niang, and the fallen leaves she stepped on raised one after another, lifting up the dust all the way.
As soon as a few people left, the people brought by the green finch rushed over, looked at the traces of the fight a little, and raised their hands and said, "Here, chase." β
Behind a big rock, a fat face poked out, his eyes were simple, he pointed to the place where the person disappeared, and asked, "Crescent moon, should we chase after it too?" β
"Stupid!" The crescent moon slapped her on the top of her head and rolled her eyelids: "Everyone is here, chase a fart!" β
The astrolabe has question marks written all over its face, adhering to the principle of asking if you ask, and says: "How do you chase a fart?" β
The crescent moon was not rare to tell her more, and shouted: "The person we are looking for is in hand, hurry up and bring it back and hand it over to the ancestor, don't worry about the rest, let's go." β
After the crescent moon walked a few steps, the astrolabe reacted in hindsight and chased after it: "Oh, then I'm a little hungry, crescent, can we eat enough before leaving." β
However, to everyone's surprise, the road here is actually an inverted triangle, that is to say, although the woman in yellow and the others and the crescent moon left from different directions, when they arrived at the front, they actually converged into a road, so it was inevitable that there would be a meeting.
The cold eyes of the woman in yellow swept over the person in the hand of the astrolabe, and secretly said to Shui Niang and the others: "Be careful, these two are masters." β
On the other side, the astrolabe blinked an eye that was not much bigger than a mung bean, pointed in front of it, and said excitedly: "Look, the crescent moon, it's a few people who were beaten around by us just now." β
The crescent moon twitched the corner of her mouth, eager to slap the death astrolabe, she didn't want to do much, it was a misunderstanding to do it with the woman in yellow and others just now, "That ......"
"It's them! Kill them! Behind the woman in yellow, a few people who had been chased for a long time were angry, and they drew their swords without saying a word.
In this way, by the time the green finch touches it, the two sides have already made a pile.
However, the green finch did not go well to save people, and the woman in yellow dragged Rong Ruo to death, and she was very puzzled why the pursuers appeared so quickly, and her mind turned sharply, and she suddenly reacted - it was that incense!
At that time, when she was at the city gate, the guard said that there was a fragrance in the coffin, although she didn't know the reason, but she reacted quickly and made up an excuse casually, and when she successfully won the sympathy of the crowd, it also dispelled the suspicion of the guards at the gate.
Damn it! The woman in yellow glared at Rong Ruo hatefully, it turned out that she had already prepared!
"You want to save people? Come with me if you have the ability! The woman in yellow took advantage of the cover of her companion and dodged away.
The green finch chased after it, because it had some scruples, so it didn't dare to get too close.
The woman in yellow ran to the mouth of the cliff and carried Rong Ruo outside, Rong Ruo's mind was just clear, and she was dizzy by the wind of the cliff below.
"Don't get too close, otherwise I'll be nervous, maybe my hands will shake ......" The woman in yellow sneered, looked at Rong Ruo, and said, "How did you do it?" β
