Chapter 117: Salvation

Nangong Ke's physical condition is mostly sitting in a carriage.

If she cried out for help at this timeβ€”she rubbed her hand against her dry and burning throat, and in her state at this time, the cries for help would be muffled by the sound of horses' hooves and the turning of wheels!

And the result of hitting the big wooden board hard is that it will only alarm the mother and son of Master Jib above.

But in an instant, more than a dozen men on horses were already chasing from behind with a black carriage.

The two pairs of men and horses stood side by side, and Master Jib ordered the dumb slave to avoid one side and asked the other to pass first.

Nangong Ke stared at the scroll in his hand, frowning slightly, not knowing if he was thinking hard about what was said in the book, or if he had something else on his mind.

After a long time, he sighed softly, put down the book, picked up the teacup and took a sip gently.

Suddenly, his eyes froze and landed on the pedestal next to the window, where there lay a small glimmering blue gem, shaped like a crescent moon, with a dark green thread hanging at one end of the crescent moon!

"Stop!" He lifted the curtain and hurriedly shouted, "Who is passing by?" ”

The leading big man thought for a while and said respectfully: "Back to Your Highness, about half a pillar of incense time, near the mountain stream, overtook a vermilion carriage, the person who drove the car didn't want to be from the Middle Regions, but he knew the rules very well, let us pass first!" ”

Outlander?

Nangong Ke's expression changed slightly, and he said hurriedly: "Commander Li, quickly turn around and look for the carriage!" ”

Commander Li was slightly stunned, and then said, "Yes." ”

Seeing Nangong Ke's nervous and serious expression, he knew that something big must have happened, so he hurriedly ordered the team to collectively turn their horses' heads and run towards the return journey.

Nangong Ke held the small gem in his hand and stared out the window tightly, his lips pursed.

The jewel was originally set in his ivory lyre.

Once, Zhenbei went to meet him and saw that Naqin liked her very much, so he simply gave it to her as a gift.

But, how did this gem appear in the carriage at this time?

Nangong Ke moved his gaze to the place where he found this gem, and his brows tightened.

The gem had probably been bounced into the carriage from the window, and it was certainly not there when the group stopped for lunch.

In other words, the time when this gem entered the carriage was within this hour.

Nangong Ke lifted the curtain and looked at the mountain scenery that kept flashing, anxious.

Suddenly, Commander Li let out a "huh" and gave the order, and the horse spun white gas from his mouth, and the team stopped.

"What's wrong?" Nangong Ke Dao.

"Back to Your Highness, this is where we met that carriage!" Commander Li was puzzled, "The carriage and we are heading in the same direction, and there is no fork in the road, why is it missing?" Could it be that something turned back? Your Highness, do you continue to chase it? ”

Nangong Ke jumped down from the carriage: "Wait a minute! ”

He looked around, the terrain was quite high enough to take in the surroundings.

The place where they are now is on a gentle mountain stream, and there is a cliff on the west side, except for this north-south mountain road, in the other directionβ€”

Nangong Ke strode over.

In that direction is a sloping meadow, ending in a pine forest.

When you get closer, the wheel prints on the grass are faintly visible.

It seems that the other party is very vigilant and deliberately avoids the avenue!

Nangong Ke left a few people to take care of the carriage and horses, and he brought a few other masters to look for the car traces.

Walk through the pine forest and sloping down into a secluded canyon.

I heard a child's voice faintly in the wind.

"Mother, the child has already cleaned up the cave according to your instructions! What's next? ”

A woman replied, "Sorry, take a rest, and when the hour comes, you will start activating the secret method!" ”

"Good!" The child clapped his hands excitedly.

Suddenly, his face changed dramatically, and he said, "Who are you?" ”

When the woman heard this, she followed his gaze, and realized that there were four more people around them.

The person at the head is a young man with a good temperament, like an immortal.

The remaining three were all burly, their eyes were shining, and their breath was inaudible, and there was no doubt that they were all first-class masters.

They were scattered around the young man, apparently at his behest.

And the dumb slave with extraordinary skills is falling at the feet of one of the big men, and his life and death are uncertain.

But she said that the woman was Master Jib, but the sudden scene in front of her did not seem to make her panic.

"I don't know who your Excellency is, did you happen to be passing through here, or did you come here on purpose?"

Nangong Ke quietly, taking everything around him into his eyes, smiled faintly, and said, "I came here this time to find a friend!" If Madame knows where she is at this time, please tell the truth! ”

Master Jibu lowered his eyes and smiled: "As Childe can see, here our mother and son, only the slave who has no vision to see and offended the nobles, and there is no one Childe is looking for, are you looking for the wrong place?" ”

Nangong Ke no longer spoke to her, smiled slightly, and walked towards the cave not far away: "Since Madame refuses to take the initiative to say it, I can only go to find it in person!" ”

The three men behind him hurriedly followed when they saw this.

At the moment when Nangong Ke's body moved, Master Jibu was already like a ghost, flashing in front of him and blocking his way.

Nangong Ke didn't take her in his eyes at all, bypassed her, and then walked towards the cave.

"There is a saying in your middle region, it is called salute first and then soldier! Since this seat treats each other with courtesy, but you don't know how to lift up, then I can't help but treat each other with a sword! ”

Before she finished speaking, she had already pulled out a whip from her waist that was translucent and aimed straight at Nangong Ke's vital point.

Although the martial arts of those three men are high, if she fights with all her might, she has half a chance of winning.

If you can take down this weak and unscrupulous noble son first, the odds of victory can be multiplied several times.

Let's say, everyone obviously didn't expect this silver-haired exotic woman to be so strong in martial arts, she shot too fast, and she was too close to Nangong Ke.

Seeing that the tail of the whip glowing with blue glow turned into a poisonous stinger, he wanted to pierce Nangong Ke's back, and when the other three wanted to rescue, it was too late.

At this moment of stone lightning, Nangong Ke stumbled under his feet, his body was crooked, and he actually avoided it.

Seeing this, the three big men all let out a long breath, and hurriedly stopped Master Jibu and surrounded her and fought together.

Nangong Ke seemed to be at the sound of a fight behind him, but he didn't hear it, he didn't turn his head, and then walked towards the cave.

"Repentance! Stop him! Seeing this, Master Jib exclaimed.

The little novice named Ah Cheng woke up like a dream, turned into an afterimage, and chased towards Nangong Ke.

"Not good! Vice General Liu, this girl is here to us, you go and protect Your Highness! Commander Li shouted at a man.

The other man nodded hurriedly, and just as he was about to withdraw from the fight, Master Jib's soft whip came as promised, pulling him back into the melee.

Her martial arts can't see what school she is, her moves are soft and weird, although the lethality is far less than some famous and decent masters, but it is better than light and fast, and her steps and moves are like spiders casting webs, entangling people and invisibly.

Li led the three of them, and he couldn't get rid of her restraint for a while.

Seeing Ah Cheng and Nangong Ke entering the cave at the same time, the three people outside the cave were anxious, but they were helpless.

There was a thud, and a shadow flew out of the cave, and he slid across the grass for several feet, stopping beside the dumb slave.

It's a repentance!

The four people who fought were all shocked, and Master Jib saw the uncertain child's life and death, and her eyes were red, and she cried out in tears: "Regret! ”

Abandoned the fight and ran towards him, Fang Chang breathed a sigh of relief when he was sure that he had just fainted.

In the cave, Nangong Ke's unfazed voice came out: "Little brother regret, I accidentally bumped into the mechanism in the cave and was bounced back, it has nothing to do with it!" ”

When the three of them heard this, the corners of their mouths twitched a few times, and then they looked at the small figure lying on the ground, and inexplicably felt a little more joyful!

Master Jibu looked at the unconscious two, knowing that the general trend had gone, but he was afraid that after many years of hard work, it would be difficult to realize his wish that it would come true!

She clenched her hands, unwillingness, anger made her lose her mind, unable to think calmly and wisely as usual, and it was best to analyze the current situation.

"You nosy scumbags, take your life!"

In this way, she shouted angrily and fought with the three of them again.

At this time, in the cave, Nangong Ke looked at the thin, thin and helpless figure with long hair covering his face, his hands tied behind his back, and leaning on the stone wall.

He walked slowly up to her and reached out to brush the hair from her face, only to notice that her eyes were closed and her mouth was stuffed with strips of cloth.

"Brother Gu, are you okay?" Nangong Ke asked softly.

Zhenbei's eyelids moved slightly, but she didn't open her eyes.

Nangong Ke helped her untie the ropes on her hands and feet, and saw that she seemed to have lost her center of gravity, falling straight to the ground, and hurriedly reached out to stop her waist.

That's how she was, and the whole person fell on top of him.

The soft body, if there is a faint fragrance - made Nangong Ke's body stiffen instantly, and he was stunned in place as if he had been struck by lightning.

A warm and sweet liquid flowed into her throat, making Zhenbei want to sigh comfortably.

Someone carefully wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief for her.

There was a hint of medicinal fragrance on the handkerchief, which was surprisingly reassuring.

She opened her eyes slightly, and unsurprisingly fell into a pair of warm eyes.

Nangong Ke put down the bowl in his hand, took the handkerchief back into his arms with a calm expression, smiled slightly, and said, "Are you awake?" ”

Zhenbei nodded lightly at him, and looked around.

They were now in an elegant and clean room, and she was lying on the soft couch by the window, and the wind chimes hanging from the window were making a light and pleasant sound with the wind.

Zhen Bei struggled to get up, Nangong Ke saw that she was struggling to sit hard, and just wanted to stretch out her arms to help, but for some reason she suddenly retracted again.
