Chapter 42: Give way
When Zhuo Jinxuan was still five meters away from Bai Shuqin, the horse suddenly stopped, unwilling to take another step. No matter how much he swung the whip, the horse just didn't move, and even wanted to run behind. There was no way, Zhuo Jinxuan and the others had to dismount and walk over quickly.
Lan Xin heard Zhuo Jinxuan's voice and wondered how he could come. Even she is no match for the Soulless, isn't he here to send him to death?
"Maybe he can save us?" Bai Shuqin had some confidence in him.
"You're not in love with him, are you?" Lan Xin looked at her in surprise.
She lowered her head shyly, and Lan Xin patted her forehead, the little girl is so deceived! She didn't have that much affection for him, and if he could treat Bai Bing from the beginning, maybe she would look up to him. But now he can make that kind of decision because she is pregnant, it seems that he is a carrot, and he can't believe it.
Lan Xin sensed that Bai Shuqin was about to refute, so he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't explain to him, I won't listen!" If a man's words can be believed, ghosts can go up trees! White Bin is an example, don't fall for her! ”
Bai Shuqin smiled and shook her head, Lan Xin knew that she was saying that she was unwilling to be honest with herself, but she would never admit it.
Zhuo Jinxuan had already walked to Bai Shuqin's side and looked at it carefully, only to see that her eyes were dilated, and she had obviously lost her mind, and Beizhu was not lying. He turned his head to look at the Soulless One, and said in a low tone: "Let my lady go!" ”
The Soulless One smiled eerily, "Then let me see if she's your lady!" ”
Bai Shuqin stopped in front of Zhuo Jinxuan like a walking corpse, without the slightest emotion on his face, like a puppet. She moved sharply and punched Zhuo Jinxuan in the upper abdomen.
This punch used all the strength of her body, and Zhuo Jinxuan bent down in pain. Seeing this, Qingluan immediately stepped forward, but he stretched out his hand to her and said sharply: "Don't come here!" ”
Qingluan stopped and glared at the Soulless One with resentment.
Zhuo Jinxuan frowned, gritted his teeth and straightened up, looked at Bai Shuqin with a smile, and said gently: "It doesn't hurt!" Don't be sad! ”
Lan Xin rolled her eyes and complained, "I'm sorry for a ghost!" Are you stupid? Don't run yet! You're going to be beaten to death standing here, you idiot! ”
"He can't hear it!" Bai Shuqin said helplessly.
The soulless man looked at Zhuo Jinxuan mockingly, and Bai Shuqin, who had lost his mind, punched the same position again.
A trace of blood flowed from the corner of Zhuo Jinxuan's mouth, he bent over and put his hand on his upper abdomen, closed his eyes and pressed it for a while before opening his eyes and straightening up again. He smiled and shook his head, "It doesn't hurt!" ”
Before the words landed, Bai Shuqin punched him in the face again, Zhuo Jinxuan fell to the ground, only to feel that it was dark in front of him, and a dizzy feeling hit him. He clenched his hands into fists and propped them up on the ground. After a while, he shook his head vigorously before he came to his senses a little.
Lan Xin and Bai Shuqin both reacted, the soulless one wanted her to kill Zhuo Jinxuan alive.
"This fool, don't you want to die?" Lan Xin clenched his fists in resentment.
Bai Shuqin wet the corners of his eyes and said to Lan Xin: "Maybe he values you more than his own life." ”
Lan Xin thought about it, but didn't dare to admit it. How he treated her, she was not stupid, could feel it. But when she thinks of Bai Bingbin, she can't always pass this hurdle.
"His choice of White Bin is more for the sake of interests, but you chose it yourself!" Bai Shuqin reminded her that although Zhuo Jinxuan had a good impression of Bai Bingbin, he was more interested in the power of the Bai family behind her.
"You're so smart, you should be able to understand." Bai Shuqin looked at Lan Xin with a smile, hoping that she could face her heart.
Zhuo Jinxuan stood up from the ground again, staggered in front of Bai Shuqin, stretched out his hand to caress her cheek, and stared affectionately: "Shu'er, shall we go home?" ”
The Soulless Man kicked the long knife on the ground to Bai Shuqin, and sneered, "Then let her send you home!" ”
The cold winter wind lifted the snow on the ground, as if a blizzard had arrived. Bai Shuqin's right hand caught the long knife kicked by the soulless man, and the wind blew her short hair, but it couldn't blow her face.
Qingluan clenched the sword in his hand and wanted to save Zhuo Jinxuan, but found that his body could not move, so he could only watch Bai Shuqin raise the knife.
Zhuo Jinxuan's face was slightly bruised, and the blood stains at the corners of his mouth were condensed by the cold wind. His eyes were still staring at Bai Shuqin affectionately, and he stretched out his hand to her, and his voice was extremely soft: "Let's go home!" ”
The first rays of sunlight in the early morning shone on Bai Shuqin's long knife held high, and the cold blade shone with a dazzling light, slashing towards Zhuo Jinxuan's body like lightning.
Zhuo Jinxuan looked at Bai Shuqin reluctantly, maybe this was the last time he looked at her.
The knife was only ten centimeters away from his neck, and a tear fell from Bai Shu Qin's loose eyes. The wind and snow are misty, he can't see it really, just take it as tears, and he is willing to die. Just as the blade was about to fall, Bai Shuqin threw the knife at the soulless with his backhand!
The Soulless Man was obviously unexpected, and was almost injured by the knife thrown by Bai Shuqin.
The Netherworld Saintess sensed the surprise in the Spirit Emperor Patriarch's eyes, and hurriedly asked, "What's the situation?" ”
The Spirit Emperor Patriarch looked at Bai Shuqin with interest, there was someone in this world who could escape his control! It seems that it is not as easy as imagined to bring the soulless here.
Bai Shuqin regained his senses, and his chest rose and fell violently. She turned her head to look around, and after making sure that she had regained her body, she hurriedly supported Zhuo Jinxuan, who was about to stand unsteadily, and said with concern: "How are you?" ”
Zhuo Jinxuan smiled and shook his head, "It's okay, just come back." ”
Bai Shuqin's brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes looked coldly at the soulless person not far away. Although it was her body, it was unforgivable to hurt the people around her!
The Soulless looked at her as well, but with a playful expression. Before Bai Shuqin stepped forward, she had already disappeared into the vast wind and snow.
"I actually let her escape!" Bai Shuqin said resentfully.
The wind gradually subsided as if it had gone with the soulless. Zhuo Jinxuan leaned on Bai Shuqin, his face filled with a happy smile.
Bai Shuqin wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth for him in distress, and blamed: "Do you have a problem with your brain?" Silly stood there waiting to be beaten. ”
Zhuo Jinxuan smiled and said nothing, what Sima Liang told him before leaving, gambling with his life. Thankfully, he won!
When Du Zijun and Beizhu rushed to the city gate, the city gate was open, but there was no gatekeeper. He put down Beizhu and squatted down decadently, annoyed that he was late!
Beizhu looked around and felt that something was wrong. No one had cleared the snow in front of the city gates, but there were no footprints, and it didn't snow last night.
"Brother Zijun." Beizhu reached out and touched Du Zijun's shoulder, "They didn't leave the city. ”
Du Zijun raised his head and looked at Beizhu puzzled, what is this little girl talking about?
Beizhu pointed to the city gate and said to him, "You see, all the traces are here, but there are no ones in the past, which means that no one has left the city." And the horseshoe prints on the ground have returned here. It is very likely that they found Sister Bai here and took her back. ”
Du Zijun carefully studied the imprints on the ground, and felt that what Beizhu said still had some truth. He had hope again, got up and said, "It must be that the third prince has found our imperial concubine, let's go to the barracks now!" ”
Although Du Zijun was anxious in his heart, he no longer had the strength to carry Beizhu on his back, and only hoped that there would be a passing carriage to carry them for a ride. Otherwise, with their current speed, I am afraid that they will reach the Year of the Monkey.
Bai Shuqin rode with Zhuo Jinxuan, and Zhuo Jinxuan hugged Bai Shuqin's waist tightly with both hands and rested his head on her shoulder. The wind blew gently, and he could smell the unique body fragrance on Bai Shuqin's body.
His warm breath sprayed behind Bai Shuqin's ears, and Bai Shuqin only felt warm. She turned her head to see him staring at her with a smile, and her face suddenly turned red.
When she saw that the knife in her hand was about to fall on him, she only felt that she would never see him again in her life, and the piercing pain filled her with the power of hatred.
Although all the pirates have been captured, the situation in the city is still not optimistic. The burned houses, the corpses covered with white cloths on the roadside, and the people crying around the corpses immersed the entire city of Jiangzhou in grief.
Zhuo Jinxuan's injuries were not light, and he fainted behind Bai Shuqin before he arrived at the barracks. Bai Shuqin grabbed him tightly with one hand, and drove his horse towards the military camp quickly.
Although all the pirates were wiped out, there were less than 500 of the 2,000 elite soldiers they brought, not to mention the casualties of the people in the city. Although they won this battle, it was even more ugly than losing.
He was about to go out to find He Zhizhou when a soldier ran over to tell him that the third prince had returned. When he ran over, what he saw was Zhuo Jinxuan who was unconscious.
When Bai Shuqin saw Sima Liang coming, he got up and gave him a place. She knew that he also had some research on medical skills, so she said to him, "Is there a way to save it?" ”
Sima Liang lifted Zhuo Jinxuan's sleeve, checked his pulse, sighed after a long time, and shook his head: "It's hopeless, prepare for the afterlife!" ”
Bai Shuqin's eyes widened, and the feeling of chagrin, remorse, and heartache instantly hit his heart, covering his chest and spraying a mouthful of blood on Zhuo Jinxuan's quilt.
Sima Liang was startled, and hurriedly held Bai Shuqin's shoulders and explained, "I just lied to you!" Although he was seriously injured, he could still be saved. You must not have anything to do, or I'm afraid I'll have to die to apologize!" ”
Bai Shuqin was relieved when he heard that Zhuo Jinxuan could be saved, but then he fainted on Zhuo Jinxuan's bed with a roll of his eyes.
Sima Liang's frightened face turned pale, and while scolding himself for being cheap, he took Bai Shuqin's pulse. Knowing that she was angry, and fainted from overwork, the hanging heart was let go a little. But soon he frowned again, Bai Shuqin was still pregnant, but his body was so weak, he was afraid that he would be in danger of miscarriage.
He took off Bai Shuqin's shoes, put her on the same bed with Zhuo Jinxuan, and covered her with a quilt. Looking at the sleeping faces of the two, he smiled and sighed: "You two are really husband and wife." ”
There was a shortage of manpower in the army, so Sima Liang prescribed medicine and asked Qingluan to take care of the two.
When Du Zijun returned to the barracks with Beizhu, it was already dark, and most of the people knew him after the last time he made a big fuss in the barracks, and the soldiers guarding the gate did not stop them this time.
Du Zijun asked someone to ask Bai Shuqin and Zhuo Jinxuan were in the barracks, so he was relieved. However, when he heard that both of them were injured, he hurried to see the two of them before he heard the words be finished.
As soon as Qingluan finished feeding Bai Shuqin the medicine, Du Zijun ran in in a hurry. He saw Bai Shuqin on the bed at a glance, hurriedly walked to the bed, and asked Qingluan with teary eyes: "What's wrong with the third princess?" ”
Qingluan put the medicine bowl on the table, "The military advisor said that he was too tired, and it would be good to cultivate for a few days." ”
"That's good, that's good!" Du Zijun patted his heart.
Beizhu followed behind Du Zijun, he ran too fast for her to follow. Seeing him disappear in front of her, she fell to the ground in a hurry, with a sharp pain in her knees and abrasions on her palms. She sat up from the ground in pain, her hands clasped tightly on her knees.
She shouted, "Is there anyone? ”
