Chapter 176: Visiting Liu's Mansion at Night
Seeing this, Orange Creek pulled him into the room and locked the door.
"What are you going to do? Do you know that men and women do not kiss each other? "Heber was a little at a loss, as if he was afraid that Orange Creek would come to overlord and make a bow.
"The clear ones are self-purifying, and the turbid ones are turbid, are you still afraid that I won't be able to eat you? Don't worry, I like you, but I'm not so cheap that I have no bottom line. The boss said that there is no room in the town, and you won't let me sleep on the streets, right? You just grieve for one night, and leave when I'm done. Big deal, you sleep on the bed, I sleep on the ground. Orange Creek said as she took out a spare quilt from the cupboard and spread it on the floor.
Herb pulled Orange Creek, who was squatting on the ground, up, "You sleep in the bed, I'll sleep here." ”
After Heber finished speaking, he lay down on the ground, turned his back to the bed, and fell asleep. Orange Creek also lay down on the bed in a daze, didn't take off her clothes, and fell asleep with the quilt on her body.
Hearing that there was no movement, Herb turned to look at Orange Creek sleeping soundly on the bed, his heartbeat accelerated inexplicably, and he couldn't sleep.
In the middle of the night, Orange Creek sneaked out of the room, she thought that there were so many people guarding the gate of Liu's Mansion during the day, and they should all go to sleep at night! They're not iron-clad, so they should still be asleep. So she wanted to sneak into Liu's mansion in the middle of the night to meet that Liu Mingyuan.
Heber is a person who practices martial arts, and Orange Creek is so moving, how can he not wake up and wait for Orange Creek to close the door. He sat up from the ground, jumped out of the window into the street, and stood guard outside the inn, waiting for Orange Creek to slip out of the store. He knew that this unconscious little girl would definitely not simply come here to enjoy the mountains and rivers.
Seeing Orange Creek sneaking out of the store, Heber followed her from a distance.
This Orange Creek is really self-taught, I don't know when she learned the art of climbing over the wall, she actually wanted to climb into the Liu Mansion from the wall in the backyard of the Liu Mansion. But things were far from being as easy as she thought, and she was halfway through the climb and became the focus of a group of martial arts people.
Orange Creek looked back and saw a group of people behind her, and she fell to the ground from the wall in fright, and she smiled awkwardly at these fierce gods.
"I said, man, what are you doing here?" One of the group asked.
"I'm just trying to get some money, is it getting in the way of the big brothers? Then I'll leave right away. Orange Creek hurriedly explained, trying to squeeze out of the crowd, only to be pulled back.
"Sneaky, want to go? It's not that easy, the brothers take him away, don't let him go around talking nonsense, startling snakes. ”
As soon as the man's voice fell, the two people who came up put Orange Creek's arms on their hands, "Go." ”
Orange Creek knew that she must not go with them, otherwise her identity would be a goof sooner or later, she understood the concerns of these people, and she was just afraid that she would go around talking nonsense, "Big brother, big brother, little brother is just a mess of food, you let me go!" I promise we won't talk about it tonight, and we'll treat it like we've never seen each other, okay? It's all mixed on the road, don't look at the monk's face and look at the Buddha's face, just let me go! ”
"What a sharp thief, shut up." The man who took the lead slapped Orange Creek and flew over.
"Big brother, you said that it is troublesome with such a burden, just ...... directly" The man made a neck sweeping gesture with his hand to his neck.
"You're right, twitter is quite annoying, pull it aside and do it." The so-called eldest brother agreed to the man's suggestion.
Orange Creek saw that she was going to kill her, and now she knew that she was afraid, she still had a wish to fulfill, and she couldn't just die here, she hurriedly pleaded, "Please, don't kill me, I have money, a lot of money, give it to you, please don't kill me, please......"
Heber walked in the road they didn't want to hide, he was really calm, seeing that the knife was about to reach Orange Creek's neck, he had no intention of going out, and muttered in his heart: "You unconscious girl, don't let you suffer a loss, you don't know what danger is." ”
"Money, will it be more than this?" The man was holding a bounty with her portrait on it, pointing to the tempting bounty number on it.
"Bounty order?" Orange Creek had an idea, "Hey, isn't this painting my sister?" ”
"Your sister?" The eldest brother was a little unconvinced, and grabbed Orange Creek's collar, "Who the are you fooling, this is your sister?" This is your sister, how did you end up here, do you know who she is? Do you know what her last name is? ”
"Really, I don't lie to you, this is my sister, her name is Zhou Xi, and she is the daughter of the owner of the Zhou family's pharmacy, are you looking for her? I know where she is, and I'll take you there. Orange Creek had no choice but to think of this trick, and when she arrived at the inn, she would definitely be able to rescue her from these people with Heber's martial arts. She only hated how she was so useless, and she had to let Heber save her every time.
"Really?"
"Really, word for word."
"it, you really treat us as fools!" But this fierce and vicious man didn't believe her words at all, and waved his hand to signal his subordinates to do it.
The man next to him raised his knife and was about to slash at Orange Creek's neck, but with a bang, a stone hit the man's knife, and the knife fell to the ground.
The rest of the people panicked, holding knives back to back in a group, "There is an ambush, everyone be careful." ”
"Let him go." Herb carried the sword and came out of the darkness, the tip of the sword grinding on the ground with a rattling sound that made people shudder.
"Are you here to die? Brothers, kill me. ”
Before Heber could make a move, these murderous people took the first step and rushed towards Heber with the knife in his hand.
Heber raised the sword in his hand and slashed it from the ground, cutting the other party's feet one by one, and in an instant those who had just been like wolves and tigers all lay on the ground and grabbed their legs and screamed in pain.
He quickly bounced off the ground, turned to Orange Creek like a tornado, and took Orange Creek into his arms from the hand of the man holding Orange Creek, he put one hand around Orange Creek's waist, and the other hand danced the sword in his hand, one left and one right, and fought hard to fight with these people.
Looking at Heber, who was desperately fighting for life and death for herself, Orange Creek was completely softened, and she even forgot her current situation, staring at Heber's face with affectionate eyes.
"Come on! If you don't want to die, come back! Herb roared.
Those who were not yet injured, seeing that Heber was so powerful, were all too frightened to come closer. After Heber's roar, he was even more frightened and did not dare to step forward.
"Don't roll yet." Heber roared again, and the crowd ran away in fright.
Herb put his sword back in its scabbard, picked up Orange Creek, who had not yet recovered from his senses, and walked in the direction of the inn.
I'm not hurt, I can walk by myself, this is what Orange Creek originally wanted to say, but she was selfish, she couldn't ask for it to lie in Heber's arms, she was reluctant to break the status quo. While she was still hesitating to speak, Heber had already spoken.
"Can you use your brain before doing things, not every time you can be so lucky to have me to save you, what an unconscious master." Herb confronted Orange Creek in a somewhat angry voice.
"Why don't I use my brain? Do you know that those people are here to kill me? I've dressed up like this, and I still haven't escaped. ”
"Kill you? Why did you come to Tai'an? Herb placed Orange Creek on the ground and pressed closer to her, cornering her into a corner and staring at her with angry eyes.
"Didn't you ask knowingly? I'm here to find Imperial Doctor Liu Mingyuan, that's the ......"
"What if you find him? Decades ago, he could lie in front of the first emperor, is it because you still have the ability to persuade him to come out and testify for you? Why did he admit to the crime of exterminating the Nine Clans for the sake of you, an irrelevant person? The more Herb spoke, the more agitated he became, and he punched the wooden pillar that Orange Creek was leaning on.
"I ...... I'm ...... So what else can I do? I just want to give justice to the deceased. Orange Creek lowered her head helplessly, with too much helplessness in her words, she sat on the ground along the pillar, and continued to mutter: "I want to help you save Wanting, I don't want to see you sad, but my father is unwilling to see a doctor for the official family because of his grandfather's unjust death, this is my father's heart knot, if I don't help him open the heart knot, he won't treat Wanting's disease, you know?" I don't have a choice. ”
Seeing Orange Creek like this, Heber's anger subsided, and he leaned down to stroke Orange Creek's head, "Your grandfather is Tong Jiahaotian?" ”
Orange Creek nodded slightly, "Don't worry, even if it's not for Wanting, I will help you clear your grandfather's grievances." ”
"Thank you!" Hearing Heber's words, Orange Creek was moved to tears, and she couldn't help but throw herself into Heber's arms again.
"Yes, I want to thank you, I really don't deserve you to do this for me, you know I already have Wanting." Although Heber's mouth was resisting Orange Creek, his body had already kept Orange Creek uncontrollably.
"I just want to be by your side, no matter what form it takes, I just hope you don't treat me as a passerby, I won't ruin your relationship with Wanting, okay?"
In front of the people she loves, no matter how proud the princess is, she has become humble, and now Orange Creek is like this.
"Let's go! Back to the inn, it is windy at night, be careful of catching a cold, and we will come to Liufu tomorrow. Herb gently picked up Orange Creek, and the two of them went back to the inn together.
Heber, who was sleeping on the ground, felt a heavy sense of guilt in his heart, he found that his heart was a little shaken, he slapped himself, hating himself for why he was so attentive, how could he have a heartfelt feeling for a woman other than Wanting, what is the difference between this and those gentlemen.
The next day, Herb and Orange Creek came to Liu's Mansion together and found the Imperial Doctor Liu.
Doctor Liu was an old man with gray hair, and when they went, he was playing with his little granddaughter in the courtyard. Seeing a stranger coming, the little girl who was still alive just now hurriedly hid behind Imperial Physician Liu.
"Who are you looking for?"
"Hello, are you Liu Mingyuan and Imperial Doctor Liu?" Herb asked politely.
"I am, who are you? What's the matter with me? Mrs. Liu stroked the little girl's head and whispered something to her, and the little girl jumped to the side to play.
