Chapter 116: Saving People
At night, the night is as cool as water.
Now the weather is gradually entering winter, and after nightfall, there is a burst of cold.
After eating one steamed bun, the missing pearl wrapped the remaining two steamed buns, and then returned to the room that Xiao Er arranged for himself.
There are no people in a hundred miles here, only this inn remains. Although the side room is shabby, and the bed board is so hard that it is difficult to sleep, it is surprisingly clean. That's why the missing pearl doesn't have that kind of anxiety.
There seemed to be too many of the Assassins, and it was probably the first time that the inn had encountered so many guests, and the kitchen was so busy that it seemed that there were not enough people.
The jewel slipped out of the room and went to the kitchen to take a look. Seeing Xiao Er busy in the kitchen, he called him.
Xiao Er is not the master of a force, and seeing the missing pearl rushing alone, it seems a little pitiful, but he will not be impatient with her, and he slipped in front of the lost pearl at the risk of being scolded by the cook.
"What's the matter? Sir? ”
"Let me ask, who are these people out there?"
Xiao Er thought about it and couldn't help but glance at her, "Little brother, this is obviously a team of business masters." Just after the return trip from the capital, the capital to the next town, there is only our inn. It's getting dark, so naturally I have to stay here. Little brother, don't you all look at you? ”
After chatting for a few words, Xiao Er changed his name.
"I'm going to Watertown to seek refuge with my relatives. How can they compare with the people who do business with them? ”
"If you are in Shuicheng, it should be faster to take a boat, why do you just take the mountain road?"
"But if you take a boat, the budget will be higher. Isn't it all that I'm not good enough for? ”
"That's just as well."
"Little two." At this time, someone outside called.
"Here we are." Xiao Er immediately shouted in response, and then pushed the missing pearl to the stairs, "Little brother, I won't chat with you." I'm dying of work right now. ”
After that, Xiao Er flashed out with the end plate.
Zhuzhu looked at the busy cook in the kitchen, and her eyes fell on the cauldron that was steaming with hot fog on the side.
****************************************************************
Murong Xi didn't know how long he had been locked up in a box, but he knew that he had been weakened, and he couldn't exert any strength in his body, and the box was bumpy for most of the day, and finally stopped.
In northern Xinjiang for many years, although I have endured a lot of hardships, I have never been so uncomfortable as I am now.
His body was stuffed into a wooden box, curled, and the bumps along the way almost made him want to vomit.
But that delicate face still came to his mind.
I wonder if the Lost Jewel has escaped now?
Murong Xi couldn't tell how he felt in his heart, he just wanted her to be safe. But......
Suddenly, a blinding light leaked from the top of his head, teaching him to squint his eyes slightly.
"Brother Huang......" A crisp and pleasant voice crashed into his ears.
Murong Xi endured the discomfort in his eyes, opened his eyes, and what came into his eyes was the face he was worried about.
"Lost pearls?" He called her name in disbelief, suspecting that he was hallucinating.
The bead pushed the lid of the wooden box open, and the candlelight leaked in. She immediately stepped forward to pick up the man in the wooden box.
"Brother Huang, great, they didn't kill you." The pearl wept with joy, and hot tears fell on his face like beans.
Teach him to tremble, and the rope that bound his hands was cut by the people in front of him. His hands were free, and he tried to struggle to get up, but he still couldn't exert his strength.
"Brother Huang, what's wrong with you?" The bead saw the clue, wiped his tears, and struggled to help him out of the wooden box.
"These people are from the Chuxi Kingdom, and what they want to capture is you. Lost beads, I was scattered by them, you take me like this, you can't escape at all, you go quickly......"
After that, Murong Xi used the only strength in his body to push her.
Seeing her follow to save herself in spite of the danger, Murong Xi already felt that he had no regrets in this life, but he couldn't hurt her because of himself.
This is obviously because the prince of Chuxi Kingdom is not dead set on the lost pearl, and the relationship between the two countries is impossible to marry, so they thought of such a despicable means and secretly sneaked into the Qianmu country and captured the lost pearl.
Hearing Chu Xiguo's three words, Yuzhu was stunned for a moment, and a handsome face flashed in his mind.
And Murong Xi also clearly caught the change in her eyes, and her heart sank slightly.
Yizhu took a deep breath, helped Murong Xi to the wooden table next to him and sat down, and silently rescued the other two wooden box people. When Light Breeze and Heavy Flame saw her, they couldn't help but be surprised.
But the situation of the two of them is the same as Murong Xi, they are all weak and weak, and they can't exert any strength in their bodies, and they are very difficult to even stand.
"I'm really glad you came. But now is not the time for fun. You alone can't take the three of us with you at all. Murong Xi looked at the delicate face in front of him with a solemn expression, and his heart was full of indescribable unknown emotions.
At this moment, he wanted to hug her into his arms, but even standing by himself seemed so difficult. It's really overwhelming.
"No, princess, you can escape with the prince alone." The breeze was powerless, and even spoke weakly.
"It is impossible for this king to leave you both." Murong Xi's eyes revealed a touch of firmness, and then he stepped back from her, "Lost pearls, you go quickly." ”
"I ......" didn't have a chance to say a word. At the door, the voice of the little two came from.
"Guest officer, guest manager, what's wrong with you? Guest officer ......"
Then there was a sound of messy footsteps.
"They've found out." As soon as the words of the missing pearl fell, the wooden door of this wing room was vigorously pushed open, and Xiao Er's voice also leaked in, "Guest officer, what's going on...... Little brother, how could it be you? ”
Xiao Er couldn't help but open his mouth wide when he saw three more big men in the room for no reason, and then he came back to his senses and said in astonishment: "Little brother, who are you?" ”
Murong Xi's eyes sank.
Yuzhu softened her voice, "This brother, I didn't go to Shuicheng to seek refuge with relatives. Instead, I came after these people, because they were enemies of my family, and they had captured my brothers and wanted to threaten my father with money. I can't watch my brothers go into danger. These people have no humanity, and I can only secretly come to save people. They're not businessmen at all, believe me or not. Anyway, I just wanted to save people, and I didn't think about hurting them at all, but they killed all the people who traveled with us. ”
"This ...... This ......" The amount of information is a bit large, and Xiao Er couldn't digest it for a while, so he was stunned at the door and asked blankly, "So you just went to the kitchen to poison their dishes?" ”
"That's not poison, it's sweat medicine. They were only temporarily unconscious, and there was no danger to their lives. "She's not a vicious person after all, and would want to kill those people.
Besides, she didn't know if other innocent people would eat these meals. So she didn't think that she would be poisoned at all, at most it was sweat medicine, which stunned them and gave her time to rescue Murong Xi.
"But......" Xiao Er suddenly thought of something, and was shocked, "Then you quickly take your brothers and run away, they and the two of them didn't eat those dishes, but went outside, and they should be almost back at this time." If they come back, you won't be able to escape. ”
Murong Xi stared at Xiao Er, not thinking that this man, who looked like he was only a weak crown year, actually believed the words of the missing pearl all of a sudden.
"But my brothers are all scattered, and they can't go far."
Xiao Er looked at the three men in front of him with a headache, and then said, "You should always be able to walk, just follow me." ”
Murong Xi and the others glanced at each other. The missing pearl is to help him and follow Xiao Er.
Because they have no other way to choose, they can only believe in this little two.
……
……
Xiao Er didn't spend much time in this inn, but there was once a matter of a guest being chased and killed by the enemy, and those of them who do small business don't want to take care of other people's affairs, but in order to save their lives, they will leave some way for their own people to retreat.
There is an underground passage dug on the first floor. Directly through the outside.
So when Yizhu followed Xiao Er, Murong Xi and the three of them went out of the inn through the underground passage and went directly to the outside of the inn.
Yizhu was so excited that she wanted to kneel down and thank Xiao Er.
Xiao Er hurriedly stopped her, "Little brother, don't be so polite, go out." It's common to help each other. However, although you say that you are safe now, they will not be able to guarantee that once they find out that you have escaped, they will chase you again, so you better leave quickly. ”
"Thank you, thank you. If I have the chance, I will definitely repay you well. ”
"No, no, no......" Xiao Er touched his nose honestly, not taking this to heart at all.
It has been four or five hours since the soft tendons were scattered, and the effectiveness of the soft tendons was dissipated little by little, and the two of them had deep internal strength, and at this time they already felt that they had recovered some strength. The two of them looked at the horses not far away, and after seeing Murong Xi's horses again, they couldn't help but glance at each other.
……
For the safety of Xiao Er and not to affect the owner of this inn, Yu Zhu asked Xiao Er to find a place to hide first. Then seeing that Murong Xi and the three of them had a little strength, they entered the manger of the inn, and when the three of them sat on horseback, a shout came from behind them.
"They're there!"
They were discovered!
The pearl was a little stunned, looking at the more than a dozen people pouring out of the door of the inn, she thought that the sweat medicine she had ordered, how could it be invalid so quickly?
Seeing this, Murong Xi pulled the lost pearl onto his horse and galloped up.
Knowing that Zhu Zhu was puzzled, he opened his mouth to explain, "This sweat medicine also depends on the amount of medicine, the amount of medicine you bring is not much, it is really difficult to confuse more than a dozen people." In addition, if you are poured cold water on this medicinal effect, you will wake up. ”
I see.
The bead showed a slight annoyance.
The cold wind slapped on her face, making her uncomfortable and unable to open her eyes, but the person behind her wrapped herself tightly.
She was still slightly glad in her heart that she was able to rescue him......
"Lord Wang, our three horses are going in three separate ways." Chongyan suddenly came up and suggested.
Murong Xi met with Qingfeng and immediately turned the horse's rope, and the three horses immediately ran in different directions.
However, the pursuers behind them chased after them as if they knew about Murong Xi and the horses of the lost pearl.
Although the soft tendons on his body are scattered a little, he has not recovered his internal strength for a while, and if he is caught up by these assassins, he will not be able to protect the person in his arms.
At this time, Yizhu realized whether his hesitation had done something wrong, "Brother Huang, shouldn't I take sweat medicine, should I be ruthless?" ”
"Not really, Lost Pearl, it's good if you keep it that way."
