Chapter Eighty-Eight: Falling
Jiang Tingliu felt that this was an opportunity for them, this wolf had a foot injury, maybe it would be more difficult to catch up with them.
Jiang Tingliu found that the lone wolf's gaze was more on the cane in her hand, and she guessed that the lone wolf was weighing whether this "weapon" was a threat to it.
Of course, Jiang Tingliu knew that this was not a weapon, and with her strength, this cane could not pose a threat to the lone wolf at all.
She clenched her cane, knowing that this bluff threat couldn't be effective for long, so she carefully squeezed Apple's wrist and said in a breathy voice, "Get ready, I'll run as soon as I shout." ”
Apple's hands were sweaty with nervousness, and she struggled to control her limp legs and feet, nodding her head with extreme care.
Jiang Tingliu took a deep breath, and she raised her cane suddenly, and Apple and Lone Wolf were startled.
Jiang Tingliu shouted "run", and at the same time threw his cane at the lone wolf.
The gem-encrusted cane reflected all kinds of light in the sunlight, and the lone wolf was startled by this bizarre "weapon" and jumped to the side.
Jiang Tingliu pulled Qingping and ran quickly.
The lone wolf screamed menacingly, its legs and feet were really inconvenient, and it stopped in place for a moment before jolting after it.
Jiang Tingliu and Apple didn't dare to turn back and ran forward as hard as they could, but there were too many obstacles in the forest, and Apple tripped over the roots of the tree if she wasn't paying attention.
Jiang Tingliu only felt that her hand sank, and her whole body was suddenly crooked by Qing Ping, she hurriedly reached out and grabbed the vine next to her, and finally managed to stabilize her balance.
"Apple, are you alright?" Jiang Tingliu bent down to help Qingping.
Apple's feet were stuck in the cracks in the roots of the tree, and she struggled for a while before she could pull them out, and the wolf howls behind her approached quickly, and Apple was afraid that they would be chased by the wolves, so she pulled her feet out of her shoes.
She felt a sharp pain in her ankle, but Qingping gritted her teeth and didn't dare to make a sound, forcing herself to stand up with the strength of Jiang Tingliu.
"I'm fine, Miss, let's go."
Jiang Tingliu didn't notice that something was wrong with Apple, and she focused all her energy on the predator behind her.
The two masters and servants once again supported each other and ran forward, and then this time they ran a few meters away, and the sound of dead branches being trampled off was heard behind them.
Jiang Tingliu couldn't help but turn around, the figure of the lone wolf was already close at hand.
Jiang Tingliu seemed to smell the foul smell in the wolf's mouth, and she finally couldn't hold back her scream.
Qingping suddenly pushed Jiang Tingliu hard, and Jiang Tingliu was caught off guard and stumbled forward several steps.
When she turned around, she felt the blood rush to the top of her head, and Apple fell to the ground holding her legs, and the lone wolf bent its three intact legs, and then it jumped to its feet, its wide mouth and its flickering canine teeth aimed at Apple's fragile neck.
Apple's ankle hurt so much that she couldn't hold on, so she decided to give up her chance to fight for Miss's life, and she closed her eyes and shouted, "Miss, run!" Leave me alone! ”
Apple felt a foul wind blow in her face, and she wept and shivered, waiting for her teeth to sink into her throat.
However, she only heard the lone wolf howl.
When Apple opened her eyes, she felt that her teeth were cracked, and Jiang Tingliu actually rushed over at the last moment and used her entire body as a weapon to crash into the lone wolf, causing Jiang Tingliu and the lone wolf to rush out together.
Less than two meters beside Qing Ping was actually a cliff hidden by vine branches, and Jiang Tingliu and the lone wolf flew directly out of the cliff as soon as they rushed out.
In Apple's desperate screams, Jiang Tingliu and the lone wolf fell off the cliff together, and the two entangled figures disappeared in the blink of an eye.
In the silence of the forest, only the screams of the lone wolf as they fall off the cliff echo, telling Apple that none of this was her nightmare.
Apple climbed to the edge of the cliff with her hands and feet, but her vision was obscured by the branches, and Apple couldn't see the bottom of the cliff even though she tried to look around.
Jiang Tingliu is such a delicate person, can he still live if he falls off the cliff like this?
Apple cried in despair, and she cried out Jiang Tingliu's name below, but only her echo echoed under the cliff.
Suddenly, a dark shadow jumped down from the tree and landed next to Apple, who was so frightened that she almost didn't roll off the cliff.
She looked up at the people, and was frightened by the grimace mask on the face of the visitor, and in a short period of time, Qing Ping was frightened one after another, and there was the stimulus of Jiang Tingliu falling off the cliff, and she finally couldn't stand it and fainted directly.
The ghost-faced man was none other than the person sent by Honghu to follow Jiang Tingliu, originally to see what secrets Jiang Tingliu was hiding behind him, but he didn't want to follow Jiang Tingliu for a while and encounter such a thing.
The ghost-faced man couldn't figure out why a lady like Jiang Tingliu ran to this mountain forest, he originally thought that he would be able to fulfill the boss's expectations so quickly, and find out the person behind Jiang Tingliu, but he didn't expect Jiang Tingliu to travel all the way in the mountains for half a day without anyone answering.
The more he followed, the more strange it became, the only thing he knew for sure was that Jiang Tingliu must know where her destination was, her journey was always very purposeful, and she never deviated from the direction in this mountain wilderness.
The accident came suddenly, and Honghu didn't order him to protect Jiang Tingliu when he was in danger, so the ghost-faced man didn't move when he saw the lone wolf appear.
Jiang Tingliu's response was rough but quite rational, and the ghost-faced man had a little praise for this new guest.
However, the accident happened so suddenly, Jiang Tingliu's maid was suddenly about to become a ghost under the wolf's mouth.
The ghost-faced man was still calm, in his opinion, this was just a maid, and sacrificing his life for the safety of his master was the proper behavior of a loyal servant.
He even had time to think that if the Lord was in danger, these people would not make a move to run away with the Lord at all, but would take the initiative to block the threat at the beginning so that Honghu could leave calmly.
After all, it is also the responsibility of these slaves to put their masters in an embarrassing situation.
The accident caught the ghost-faced man off guard again, he never expected Jiang Tingliu to rush forward so simply, and even he didn't have time to react Jiang Tingliu had already fallen out of the cliff with a lone wolf in his arms.
However, in the blink of an eye, Jiang Tingliu fell to the bottom of the cliff, and the ghost-faced man was stunned by such a change, and only then did he react and rush to the edge of the cliff to take a look.
With just one glance, he was sure that Jiang Tingliu was not saved, such a high cliff was a dead word even if it was them, and it would be a dead word to fall unprepared, not to mention a little girl with thin skin and tender flesh like Jiang Tingliu? I'm afraid that the impact of falling down this way alone is enough to kill Jiang Tingliu.
The face under the mask of the ghost-faced man is very ugly, this new guest lord died like this, and I don't know if the lord will punish him for this.
However, regardless of whether the Lord will be angry or not, this matter cannot be concealed from the Lord, and the Ghost-faced Man decided to leave and return to the Stork Tower to report the matter to the Lord as it is.
As for Apple, who was stunned at his feet, Ghostface didn't even mean to take a second look.
