Chapter Twenty-Six: Distress
After Li didn't hesitate to take Chun Tao out of the Joy Pavilion, he immediately checked Chun Tao from top to bottom, and once again confirmed that Chun Tao did not have any damage on her body, but she was scared, so she calmed down.
"It's good that it's not hurt." In addition to being relieved, Li didn't hesitate to reproach and said: "But this matter also gives you a long memory for this girl, if you go out, don't be quick to talk about it, and cause unwarranted disasters." ”
"I'm sorry, miss." Chun Tao lowered her head guiltily, "Miss's words, Chun Tao wrote down." Today's incident is indeed Chun Tao's mistake, and it almost affected Miss. ”
It seems that Chun Tao misunderstood what she meant. Li did not hesitate not to be afraid of Chun Tao, but to be afraid of Chun Tao's accident. Fang Cai's words were not so much that she was teaching Chun Tao a lesson, but that she was teaching Chun Tao how to protect herself, after all, the current Li Wei regret is not yet capable of protecting the people she cares about.
"However, don't worry, Miss, there will never be a next time, if not, I will be ······" Chun Tao stretched out her hand and wanted to swear.
Li didn't hesitate to cover Chun Tao's mouth in time, and smiled helplessly: "That's it, just write it down." It's getting late, so let's get home quickly. ”
Chun Tao blinked and nodded vigorously.
At this time, the street has lost its daytime prosperity, and only the shadows of the trees are visible in the moonlight. The shops on both sides are closed, and the vendors who set up their stalls go home early, even the beggars who roam the streets during the day must have found a place to spend the night resting.
There are very few pedestrians on the street, and the occasional people who meet them at night are mostly drunk drunks.
Li did not hesitate to choose the road farther back to his home for the sake of safety, after all, the night was dark and the wind was high, if he was unfortunate enough to meet a gangster, they walked on the road like this, and the other party did not dare to start easily.
"Miss, can we take the trail back home, that faster." In fact, not long after Chun Tao came out of the Joy Pavilion, she found that her body was a little unwell, and she had been holding back, and now this feeling is getting stronger and stronger.
"Silly girl, the trail is close, but it's not as safe as the street. Well, it's coming soon. Li did not hesitate to comfort Chun Tao.
Along the way, Chun Tao suggested to Li Wuxi several times to take the trail, but Li Weixi did not accept it.
In fact, Fang Caili did not hesitate to be moved by Chun Tao's words, and he was entangled in whether to take a shortcut to go home, but in the final analysis, it was safer on the street.
There are still two streets away, and Li Wei's heart is a little lowered. only to find that the spring peach who was still chirping like a little sparrow had been silent for a long time.
Li didn't hesitate to stop and saw that Chun Tao did not follow her, but sat down on the steps of the shop not far behind her.
Li was angry and funny, she turned back and walked towards Chun Tao.
"What's wrong? Just such a little road makes you tired like this. ”
Chun Tao tried to open her eyes wide, and said weakly, "No······ Miss. Somehow······ I feel like I'm getting less and less ······ Strength······ And······ Dizzy. ”
Chun Tao struggled to finish her words, "Miss······ You leave me alone, or ······ ······ yourself Let's go home first, let me be in the ······ Here······ Take a break. She didn't care about herself, but if her own young lady had a case, how should she explain to the prince, she urged Li to go back to the palace first.
Seeing that Chun Tao's eyes were blank, her speech was intermittent, and her limbs were weak. An ominous premonition rose in Li Weixi's heart, could it be······ Not good!
Li didn't hesitate to look up at the empty street in front of her, then looked back at the dark alley behind her, and then looked down at Chun Tao, who was getting worse and worse on the steps, she gritted her teeth and made a decision.
Li did not hesitate to endure the resistance to that alley in his heart, and reluctantly helped Chun Tao to turn around and enter the alley where he couldn't see his fingers.
"Chun Tao, you help me and walk through an alley."
Li did not hesitate to know that they had to return to the palace as soon as possible now, and they would be "safe" when they arrived at the palace.
But this winding alley is black and rumbling, and the feet will be tripped by debris from time to time, and Li Wei really can't go fast by holding Chun Tao. She felt as if she hadn't reached the end of the alley after walking for a long time.
Chun Tao was in a trance, completely unconscious, and the whole person was drooping on Li Weixi's body, which made her steps sink more and more. Li didn't hesitate to feel hard every step she took, but she didn't dare to rest, and forcibly endured her discomfort and dragged Chun Tao to continue to move forward.
Finally, Li did not hesitate to see a faint light in the distance swaying in the night wind, and she knew that it was the lantern in front of the side door of the palace.
"Spring Peach, look! We're almost there. Li did not hesitate to be happy and beat his spirit, trying to speed up the pace of his feet.
"Boom, boom!" Two black shadows swept by, obscuring the only visible light that Li Weixi saw like a life-saving straw, and her heart tightened.
"Beauty, it's not easy to walk at night, why don't you let our two brothers accompany you?!" Lu Lao Erse approached them with a smile on his face.
Li didn't hesitate to take a closer look, who else would it be if the person who came was not the scoundrel of the Joy Pavilion!
"Not necessarily." Li did not hesitate to look at them vigilantly, and began to think about a way to get out in his heart.
Lu Lao Er turned a deaf ear to Li's refusal and continued: "You look so good-looking, why are you so unkind and reject people thousands of miles away. ”
Boss Lu saw that Lu Lao Er was not doing his business, and he was playing tricks there, and he was a little annoyed, "Don't you want to fall in love with these two girls!" Don't hurry up yet. Boss Lu urged.
"How can this place be suitable for spending a good night with such a delicate girl, why should I find a soft pillow to warm the couch." Lu Lao Er said that, but a pair of thief eyes had already looked back and forth on Li Weixi and Chun Tao several times.
Boss Lu waved his hand impatiently, "Then don't you hurry up and take people away!" What a word. ”
Lu Lao Er spread his hands, and his "honest" face revealed helplessness, "You see, my eldest brother is a quick temper, not as merciful as me." ”
Every time he said a word, he took a step closer to Li Weihe, and every time he pushed further, Lu Laoer's face became more and more hideous, "Are you going to go by yourself, or do you want us to do it?" ”
Li did not hesitate to ponder for a moment, as if he had an idea in his heart. She gently put the Chun Tao in her arms on the wall, glanced at the Chun Tao reluctantly, got up and faced the Lu brothers, "Leave her, I'll go with you." ”
"Why are you negotiating terms with us?" Lu Lao Er said. Boss Lu on the side was obviously impatient and was gearing up to approach this side.
Without further ado, Li did not hesitate to shout: "That's it!" As she spoke, she knocked on the door of Lu Laoer's face.
Lu Lao Er didn't expect Li Weixi to suddenly make a move, and scolded: "Stinky girl, don't toast and don't drink, drink punishment wine!" He stopped Li Weixi's punch with one hand, and slammed the other hand into her abdomen.
Li Weixi seems to have expected it, after all, as Zhou Tong at the same time, she has been practicing martial arts since she was a child, and it is naturally no problem to have a few tricks with a third-rate commodity like Lu Laoer. She took advantage of Lu Lao Er's palm wind and quickly leaned back, and with lightning speed, she raised her foot and kicked Lu Lao Er's crotch fiercely.
Suddenly, a wail of pain resounded through the dark and quiet alley.
Lu Lao Er was also careless, and he didn't expect Li to attack him. I didn't expect Li Weixi to be able to use some punches and kicks, and he was so agile to shoot, and he didn't make one move after another, so that Lu Lao Er couldn't dodge it and really ate Li Weixi's move.
Seeing Lu Lao Er curled up in pain, he fainted in pain. Boss Lu was suddenly furious, he didn't say a word, pulled out the big knife on his waist, and rushed murderously······
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Zhao Qingcheng performed light skills alone and hurried all the way, and he was anxious for a while, and he didn't even bring a close guard with him, so where could he take care of the secret guards under his command. In order to broaden his vision, he jumped from one roof to another, but he never regretted it.
"She's not stupid enough to walk the trail!" Zhao Qingcheng muttered to himself.
According to Zhao Qingcheng's footsteps, even if he took the farthest road, he should have caught up with Li Weihe, and the two of them could not be faster than him. It's just that there are no less than five or six roads and small roads from Xunhuan Pavilion to Yan Wangfu, either near or far. He didn't know which path Li Weixi would choose, how could he find it in a moment and a half.
Zhao Qingcheng jumped off the roof and stood beside a willow tree, his brows furrowed. He regretted that he had withdrawn the secret guards around Li Weixi, and at least he should have left Wuxin behind. Now it's too late to make amends, and now he only hopes that Li Weiwei will not hesitate to have an accident.
Zhao Qingcheng wanted to put his hand into his arms to take the "dark whistle", but before he could take it out, his movements suddenly stopped, "Come out!" ”
Behind Zhao Qingcheng, a person slowly walked out of the darkness of a street corner, dressed in night clothes. As if he didn't want people to know his identity, he was still covered with a black cloth on his face and only showed a pair of eyes.
Zhao Qingcheng stared at the only pair of eyes that were exposed to him for a long time, and he could assert that he had never seen this person.
Similarly, the man in black was also looking at Zhao Qingcheng. Under the night, he couldn't see Zhao Qingcheng's face clearly, let alone read the expression on Zhao Qingcheng's face at this moment. But he guessed Zhao Qingcheng's identity from the brocade clothes and jade clothes worn by Zhao Qingcheng, thinking that the man who would care so much about her safety now might be the only one except himself!
"Lord Wang, if you want to save people, come with me." The man in black didn't say much, and after speaking, he performed light skills and walked like flying.
Zhao Qingcheng did not hesitate for a moment, and followed closely with light skills.
Although Zhao Qingcheng had reservations about the purpose and identity of the man in black, he was more concerned about his safety at the moment. If what this man says is true, then it is enough, if not, he will not be spared.
After a moment, the man in black suddenly stopped, stretched out his hand and pointed to the alley, "Here." ”
Zhao Qingcheng looked around, and the alley was pitch black. He hesitated slightly, became vigilant, and looked at the man in black in front of him suspiciously. Judging from his observation and understanding of Li Weixi these days, this road does not seem like she would choose to take. But the end of this road is indeed the side gate of the Yan Wang's Mansion.
At the moment of the dilemma, Zhao Qingcheng's mind flashed with the thought that Li did not hesitate to be humiliated, and suddenly made him no longer hesitate, and he rushed into the alley like an arrow off the string.
Looking at the back of Zhao Qingcheng leaving, the corners of the black-clothed man's mouth rose slightly under the black cloth, and he disappeared into the black velvety night.
