Chapter 143: Don't be afraid, there's still me

She hadn't seen the boy who saved her, but she knew it was him, and it was a feeling of heart. The crowd looked for him thousands of times, and suddenly looked back at the man, but he was in the lamplight.

She fell in love with the big brother who saved her life and called her a little fool. She could see that he actually had a warm heart on the outside.

Unexpectedly, his father really gave them a marriage, Baili Zihuang was very happy, his father really loved her the most.

The emperor loves her the most, but the more love she gets, the more dangerous their status becomes.

Originally, Concubine Ling was a person with no background, and they could barely accept it. But now that she and the general have married each other, everyone knows how powerful this backer is.

Especially after the news in the palace that Concubine Ling was pregnant with the dragon seed again, those people finally couldn't hold their breath.

She will never forget that night, it was her nightmare.

She was still asleep, but she was inexplicably pulled out of the bed by her mother, told her a few words with a nervous face, and then ordered the Qingmei guards around her to quickly take her out of the palace.

She didn't understand what happened until the moment she left the palace, but not far from the palace, she saw a fire burning in the Linghua Hall of the mother concubine, and in an instant the fire swallowed the Linghua Hall like a devil.

She watched in horror and screamed to run back. She's going to find her mother, she's going to her father.

Soon the pursuers arrived, and Qingmei forcibly took her away. Qingmei is the person next to Concubine Ling, and her duty is to protect the Ninth Princess and prevent her from falling into their hands.

It's just that overnight, it seems that the heavens and the earth have changed, and Baili Zihuang can't believe all this.

She is the ninth princess who is the most favored by her father, why didn't her father come to save her when she was in trouble? What happened to the mother? Why can't you be with her?

No one answered her questions, and she only saw groups of people dressed in palace guards rushing towards them. Qingmei was loyal and courageous, and tried all her strength to push the princess away, dragging them by herself, and letting her go first.

It's a pity that Baili Zihuang is too young, how can he outrun those well-trained Praetorian Guards with weapons in hand.

Qingmei fell in a pool of blood, looking at the small figure surrounded by archers, with a look of despair on her face. She had tried her best, but unfortunately he still failed to live up to her mother's instructions.

The wind suddenly rose, the dark clouds covered the moon, and the sky and the earth changed color in an instant. A tornado blew out of nowhere, and the wind and sand were so thick that it was impossible to open your eyes.

Just in an instant, the wind and sand dispersed, and the little man in front of him had disappeared.

At this moment, on a small road leading to the outside of the city, the two of them galloped quickly.

The man on the horse in the darkness resembles a young man, and his tall figure is slightly thin. Dressed in a black coat, the wide robe covers the petite girl in her arms. The hood covered half of his face, and only a pair of eyes were as dark as the sea.

The pursuers were still behind, and he knew that they would not give up tonight, and it was up to him whether they could save her tonight.

The villain in his arms seemed to be trembling, how could he have suffered such a tribulation. He only hugged her tighter, and the horse under him urged her more urgently.

Although Baili Zihuang still doesn't understand what happened? But she knew that this person was not a bad person now, because she remembered the smell of him. This was the only person she could trust other than her parents, so leaning into his arms, her heart gradually settled. Don't think about anything, just have him.

Out of town

The two of them walked on a hidden road. When he reached a jungle, he simply dismounted, let the girl climb on his back, and walked step by step along the thorn bushes inside.

Baili Zihuang obediently climbed on his back, entrusting all his trust to him. Although the two didn't say anything along the way, they had a good heart and trusted each other. She put her arms around his neck, not so much as her benefactor, but her relative, the only person she could trust now.

The pursuers did not chase after them, and they must have thought that the jungle was intricate and it was not easy to find someone. So they came up with an even more vicious plan,—— set fire.

It's a good idea to burn a fire and quickly turn everything to ashes while the wind blows. Even if it is a Da Luo Immortal, I am afraid it will be difficult to fly.

When the heat wave hit, accompanied by the smell of burning, Xiao Junluo knew what they had done. Originally, he thought that he could take advantage of the terrain here to escape, but he didn't expect them to have this trick. But now I can't care about anything else, so I can only run forward desperately.

The tongue of fire in the back was already about to spread, and Baili Zihuang could even feel the burning pain in his back. But she gritted her teeth and said nothing.

The young man's sturdy body is like a cheetah leaping through the forest. He just wanted to be a little faster, a little faster, and as long as they escaped from this jungle before the fire consumed them, they would be saved.

But he underestimated this forest, like the boundless night at the moment, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free.

He hated himself for not being an adult, hating why he had so little strength? He couldn't protect her, and he still couldn't keep his promise after all.

The pace of running has become slower and slower, and even a little staggering. Seeing that the tongue of fire had spread, the boy was almost exhausted.

The little girl's voice on the back sounded glutinously, "Brother Luo, you don't care about me, leave me, and you can escape by yourself." "If it weren't for carrying her on his back, he would have been able to walk out. Since they were going to kill herself, she really didn't want to bother others.

"Do you believe me?" The boy's voice was unmistakably resolute.

The girl nodded, remembering that he couldn't see, and whispered in his ear, "I believe it!" "All I have to do is believe in him.

"Good! I swear I'll get you out of here, even if I use my last breath. "It's his promise to her, and it's a promise to himself. Since he promised him in front of the emperor, this is his lifelong responsibility.

The little girl didn't speak again, but her eyes were wet, and tears rolled down. After all, it's just a six-year-old child, and he doesn't know how to hide his emotions. She only knew that Brother Luo was a person who was really good to her, different from those royal brothers and sisters, just like her father and mother.

Perhaps it was her true feelings that moved God, and just as they were about to reach their knots, the sky suddenly began to rain heavily.

It's really a timely rain, life-saving rain.

It's a pity that they don't have much energy to celebrate, and the most important thing at the moment is to find a place to shelter from the rain. Even if you don't get burned to death by the fire, it will definitely not be comfortable to be poured by this cold rain for half the night.

Finally found a small cave, although the cave is not big, but it is more than enough to accommodate the two of them.

Xiao Junluo took off the cloak wrapped around the two of them, and twisted the water all over his body with his hands. Their clothes were also drenched, but there was no change of clothes here. I managed to find some branches and lit a small fire.

When everything was taken care of, I looked back and found the little girl sitting in the corner with her knees crossed, blinking

with him. Her eyes are beautiful, and it must have been some god who stole the stars in the sky and put them in her eyes. It's just that the eyes that should have been bright and bright are a little more helpless at the moment.

He leaned over and took her tiny body into his arms, giving her all the warmth.

She has always behaved very well-behaved, not noisy or noisy, leaning on his arms at the moment, her little hands tightly grasping the corners of his clothes, as if this is the only way to find a sense of security.

He picked her up and leaned towards the fire, letting her petite body sit in his arms. The two were silent, just snuggling up to each other and perceiving each other.

The cave is bright because of the fire. The leaping flames reflected the beautiful faces of the two children. One is carved in pink, and the other is cold and unparalleled.

After a while, the girl spoke lowly, for fear of disturbing something.

"Where's my mother?"

The young man was stunned, and replied plainly and coldly: "It's no longer there." ”

The girl's little hands clutched at the corners of her clothes, and her eyes were red, but she didn't let the tears fall. Then he asked, "What about my father?" ”

The hand holding her tightened, as if she would be gone with the wind in the next moment, and her voice was a little hoarse, but she still answered truthfully, "It's not there anymore." ”

is also gone, what a bland sentence, but the only hope in Baili Zihuang's heart has been shattered.

Tears fell uncontrollably, one drop after another, hitting the back of the boy's hand, wetting her eyes and burning his heart.

For a child, the blow is really too big. He didn't know how to comfort her, he just hugged her tightly and patted her back with one hand. He has never coaxed a child, because his parents are the only one of him, so he doesn't know how to take care of a child younger than him, and he is still a girl. He was just instinctive, giving her all the warmth, giving him protection, giving her dependence.

"Why...... Why is this happening? Obviously she was fine before going to bed, and she also recited poems to her father, who always praised her for being smart and well-behaved. Before going to bed, the concubine also kissed her and told her to wait for her to wake up and make her her favorite sweet and sour fish.

All this is still in my ears, how did it all change overnight?

The boy took pity on her and helped her to clean up the messy hair in her ears and put her head on his chest.

"Don't be afraid, you still have me, I will always be by your side."

She kept crying, although she didn't know what had happened, but she knew that she would never see her father and mother again.

He was always with her, coaxing her. When it was almost dawn, the girl in his arms finally sobbed and fell asleep, but he felt that something was wrong, and reached out to touch it, and sure enough, he had a fever.

Xiao Junluo was frightened, Zi'er had a fever, and he should hurry up to find a doctor. But they were fleeing in their hearts, how dare he take her to the doctor. blamed himself for not knowing medical skills, but this disease could not be delayed.

After thinking about it, he decided to take a risk. Because he didn't dare to gamble with Zi'er's life, it was better to break through than this.

"Zi'er, hold on a little longer, I'll take you to see the doctor."

I put the girl on my back again, but I couldn't hear her answer, but I felt a heat on my back, which was worse than the heat wave just now.

He walked out of the cave, and it was already getting light. It was already far away from the capital, and he wanted to find a Tulangzhong nearby. But he was in a barren mountain range, and there were many searching Praetorian Guards around, so he didn't dare to be careless.

"They're here."

Suddenly, Xiao Junluo knew that he had been discovered, and it was too late to run.
