Chapter 5: Fearless for Love
Looking at Xia Xiaoxuan's depressed expression, she said softly: "Miss Xia, you don't have to be unhappy, fate is a thing that depends on chance, and now it's just that your fate hasn't arrived." You are a loving and righteous girl, and you will always meet someone you really like. ”
A certain woman smiled bitterly, "You don't have to comfort me, who dares to ask for a rude woman like me." ”
He didn't mention the woman, and she didn't ask again, no matter how she said it's all people's privacy. He's the one who wants to leave, so why is she still thinking about it.
After breakfast, Xia Xiaoxuan asked him to return all the things that belonged to Junluo. Looking at Zhao Cai Jinbao's eyes like killing his father and the enemy, she really didn't worry about him going down the mountain, so she decided to send him down the mountain in person.
The two were silent all the way, and Xia Xiaoxuan wanted to speak several times, but she didn't know what to say, so she had to follow him silently.
When passing through a bamboo forest, walking to the depths, there are lush bamboos, tough and upright. The mountain wind blows, the bamboo leaves are salsa, and the fragrance of bamboo is everywhere.
The fierce Xia Xiaoxuan grabbed the man's hand, made a silent gesture under the incomprehensible gaze of the other party, and glanced at the bamboo forest next to her.
Jun Luo comprehended, and his body tensed.
The rainstorm pear flower needle in the sleeve of the hand shot out, and there was a thud in the ears of a heavy object falling to the ground.
Suddenly, Xia Xiaoxuan ran violently, and naturally did not forget to drag the man next to her. Behind them suddenly appeared dozens of archers, pointing in their direction.
Pushing away the man next to her, Xia Xiaoxuan took out something from her arms and threw it hard at the group of people behind.
There was a 'boom' explosion, like the sky falling apart, and then there was suddenly a big crater in that place, and countless casualties were killed and injured in an instant.
In addition to the officers and soldiers, Jun Luo was also shocked. The deep phoenix eyes were full of incredulity, and when she looked at Xia Xiaoxuan again, there was a complex emotion in her eyes.
The remaining officers and soldiers didn't care to remember their dead compatriots, and under the command of the leader, they killed Xia Xiaoxuan.
She wanted to open the mechanism, but she was afraid of hurting Junluo, so she could only meet the enemy single-handedly.
"Hide."
Xia Xiaoxuan roared, pulled out the silver whip on her waist, and waved it at the comer.
The whip seemed to have life in her hands, more like a ferocious dragon, which is why someone gave her the nickname of the female dragon.
Although those people all had weapons in their hands, they were not as flexible as Xia Xiaoxuan. In particular, there were barbs on her whip, and when she pulled it down, her flesh and blood were blurred, and she screamed again and again.
I don't know if Jun Luo was stunned by this scene, and he was stunned and forgot to move his steps, until a cold sword was placed on his neck, and he suddenly woke up.
"Female Jiaolong, I advise you to lay down your weapons and go back with us obediently, otherwise this man's life will be lost."
Xia Xiaoxuan was stunned, and her teeth itched with hatred. But I heard Jun Luo say apologetically: "Miss Xia, you don't care about me, go quickly." ”
Faced with the moment of life and death, he did not show fear, but still thought about her, which moved Xia Xiaoxuan very much.
The whip was pointed at the man who was holding him hostage, and he looked like a leading figure. said disdainfully: "Isn't it too despicable for you to call yourself a soldier and horse of the imperial court, but to use a scholar who has no power to tie the chicken?" These things that even our bandits are ashamed of, but your face is not red and your heart is not beating. ”
The young man in the official uniform, with the sword in his hand on the man's neck, snorted coldly, "To deal with a female robber like you, you don't need to be above board, catching you is to eliminate harm for the people and make meritorious contributions to the court." ”
"It is true to make meritorious contributions to the imperial court, but it is not necessary to eliminate harm for the people. I think the real harm is those of you who eat the court's money, drink the flesh and blood of the people, and think that you are high officials. ”
"Under the guise of eliminating harm in the name, if you really copy our cottage, a few taels of silver can be returned to the imperial court, and the people can really get benefits, not to fatten your group of lackeys."
Xia Xiaoxuan's words were so loud that Junluo and the officials behind him couldn't help but be stunned.
"Don't talk nonsense, the court officials haven't taken your turn to judge, what are you? Occupy the mountain as the king, rob the house, do you still think you are a righteous person? Don't be verbose, just grab it. ”
The man's reaction was quick, and the sword on Jun Luo's neck was lifted upwards again, and in an instant, bright red blood flowed from his delicate and white neck. Falling on the clothes on his chest along the sword peak, like a blooming red plum.
The bottom of her heart is tight, the situation is not favorable to her now, if she abandons Junluo, she will definitely be able to get out of danger safely. But how could she be innocent! What's more, this is still the man she fancies. Even if he doesn't like her, he doesn't want anything to happen to him.
Gritting her teeth, she threw the whip aside, and the pride that came from her bones did not allow her to bow her head.
"The person you want to arrest is me, let him go, he has nothing to do with Panlong Village, it's just an innocent person we grabbed from the cottage."
Jun Luo showed a nervous look, "Miss Xia, you don't have to worry about me, let's go!" ”
Xia Xiaoxuan smiled, "Jun Gongzi, you are a person with big ambitions, I don't want to affect you." I've thought of this ending since I walked down this path, but I don't regret it. ”
"I just want you to know that even if people all over the world scold me for being a robber and innocent of death, I have a clear conscience." At this moment, even if she really suffered retribution, she didn't want him to misunderstand.
The man was slightly stunned, and the hand hidden in his sleeve tightened. I wanted to say something, but at this time the rescuers from the mountains came.
The official was also stunned, and in a flash, the person in his hand suddenly bit him on the arm, and broke free while he was in pain.
But how did he allow him to escape, a dart was shot, and the target was really Junluo's back.
Seeing that Jun Luo had run to his side, he was still unaware of this sudden situation. didn't have time to think about it, Xia Xiaoxuan pushed him away, but she suffered this dart for him.
"Boss—"
"Boss—"
Zhao Cai Jinbao received the signal and hurriedly brought people over, but he didn't expect to see this scene, his eyes were immediately red, and he brandished his sword and gun to kill the officers and soldiers.
Suddenly, the scene became a mess, and the swords, lights, swords, and shadows were chaotic.
"Miss Xia......" Jun Luo's eyes widened in horror, and the hand holding the woman trembled a little, looking nervous and anxious.
Under the cover of the brothers in Panlongzhai, they returned to the cottage. But when he heard the sound of the mechanism starting behind him, how many people had died, Jun Luo didn't have the heart to look at it.
Xia Xiaoxuan didn't have the strength to support it anymore, and finally fell into a warm embrace.
She was in a trance for a while, and this felt familiar, as if there had been a shoulder like this, supporting her and protecting her.
In the blink of an eye, she was in a sea of fire, and the tongue of fire came at her like a flood of beasts with teeth and claws, as if they wanted to swallow her in one bite.
She was very scared, ran and ran as hard as she could, and finally she couldn't run anymore. At this time, someone came and picked her up and continued to run wildly.
She couldn't see his face clearly, and she didn't know who he was, but she remembered the faint smell of ambergris, which made her feel very relieved.
It's a dream, how can anyone protect her? Except for the unobtrusive master, there is no one to protect her anymore.
So at a very young age, she learned to be self-reliant, she learned to be tenacious.
She told herself that she had to be strong, and only in this way could she protect herself and the people she wanted to protect.
When Xia Xiaoxuan opened her eyes, Zhao Cai Jinbao and a group of little ghosts were all in front of her bed, and they cried with joy when they saw her wake up.
"Boss, you're finally awake, and we thought we'd never see you again?"
Ah Liang twitched his red nose and looked at the boss on the bed with tears in his eyes. Their boss, what a lively person, he almost died, can they not be in a hurry?
"Ah Liang, what nonsense are you talking about? Of course, our boss will not die, doesn't it mean that good people don't live long, and disasters will last for thousands of years? Another little ghost, Ah Xiang, also had red eyes and two noodles hanging from his nose.
Hey, little ghost, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand, that's not how idioms are used.
Xia Xiaoxuan couldn't cry or laugh a little, raised her eyes and looked at them again, there were a lot of them, but there was no one she wanted to see, and she was suddenly extremely depressed.
He should be gone, right? But wasn't he meant to go?
"Please excuse me."
