Chapter Seventy-Three: Successive Changes
As the blue dawned, a scream pierced the sky.
The door was slammed open, and two guards rushed into the room with knives, looking at An Ruofei in disbelief. An Ruofei held his head with both hands, his hair was scattered, his eyes were scattered, his face showed a frightened look, and he kept screaming miserably.
Seeing this, the two guards inserted their knives back into their scabbards, one on the left and one on the right, like An Ruofei to restrain her.
Their knives had barely been sheathed, and two slender, short Hidden Arrows were fired at the center of their brows, one of which was slightly off, but it went straight through their throats, and before they could make a sound, they were out of breath.
An Ruofei looked at the bloody scene in front of her in horror, this was the first time she used this small crossbow, although she had been mentally prepared before, but when she saw the blood splashing all over the ground, her feet were still soft, if it weren't for the lonely courage to escape from this place, she would immediately collapse to the ground. After stumbling two steps, An Ruofei still had the courage to step forward.
The two guards had already fallen to the ground, An Ruofei trembled and reached out to try the snort of the two, and saw that both of them were dead, so he relaxed a little.
A moment had passed, and no one else had arrived, An Ruofei stretched out her head to look at the situation outside the house, and after confirming that there was no one else here, she hurriedly left this place.
As she left, she grabbed a guard's saber for self-defense.
An Ruofei guessed well last night, he was indeed taken to a villa in Xiqing, but there didn't seem to be anyone here, except for the two guards who guarded him, An Ruofei didn't find any extra people. It's just that she didn't know that the rest of the people were either sent out by Gu Zhiyuan, or they followed Gu Zhiyuan out to run errands.
An Ruofei didn't know that Gu Zhiyuan had already finished her work at this time and was on her way back, if she moved fast enough, she might be able to avoid Gu Zhiyuan.
In the huge mansion, An Ruofei anxiously searched for every place that might be an exit, but here the rockery is craggy and the path is rugged and complicated, and she has returned in vain several times.
But An Ruofei didn't dare to slack off, and still kept searching. Finally, she finally saw the gate of the other garden, due to excessive tension and fatigue, An Ruofei's heart beat very fast, and a heart seemed to jump out of her chest.
An Ruofei looked at the door and saw that there was no padlock on it, and his heart was suddenly overjoyed, so he pushed the door and ran out. It turned out that this villa was built on the mountainside, there was only a path outside the door, and the surrounding area was empty, and there was no place to hide.
But at this moment, there was no choice, An Ruofei could only run on the path as fast as possible, hoping to meet a fork in the road quickly. At this time, her hair was scattered, the slight oozing sweat stuck to the fine hair on her face, the long skirt was on the ground, the complicated skirt was stained with a lot of mud, and her lips were also white from thirst and detachment, and she looked completely embarrassed.
I was almost at the foot of the mountain, and I could already see a few staggered paths, and a small dense forest in the distance, so that I could hide myself as long as I got there...... But by this time she was exhausted.
The house leak happened to rain overnight, and just when her strength was about to run out, there was a sudden sound of horses' hooves in front of her, the sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, An Ruofei's heart was raised to her throat, her thin lips were pursed, and she held the handle of the knife with one hand, but her forearm was trembling slightly.
An Ruofei still bumped into Gu Zhiyuan who returned to the other garden. Gu Zhiyuan was on the horse, and from a distance, he saw An Ruofei galloping towards him in embarrassment. He was shocked at first, but then regained his composure, anyway, she was alone, and now she definitely couldn't escape, so he waved his hand and signaled his subordinates to ride horses to surround An Ruofei not far away.
Seeing that An Ruofei was surrounded, Gu Zhiyuan stepped forward without hurrying. He grabbed the reins, looked at An Ruofei immediately, and said coldly: "An Sile, if you know each other, you will be arrested." Gu is now at the end of his rope, you should know...... A person who is not afraid of death can do anything, so you'd better settle down, otherwise...... I'll kill you!" ”
An Ruofei's chest rose and fell violently, and his chest seemed to be burned by fire, and he couldn't say a word. After a long time, he looked at Gu Zhiyuan fiercely, and his voice had become a little hoarse: "Horizontal and vertical death, instead of you doing it, it is better for me to end it myself!" ”
After speaking, An Ruofei wiped the horizontal knife towards his neck. Gu Zhiyuan was shocked and shouted, "Stop her!" ”
One of the guards was quick-eyed, and his saber flew out of his hand.
"Go!" , The knife in An Ruofei's hand was knocked away in an instant, but a thin blood mark was still scratched on her neck, and she looked at Gu Zhiyuan sharply, "How can you be willing to kill me?" Kill me, how do you explain to your master? ”
Although the truth was revealed, Gu Zhiyuan didn't take it to heart, he looked at An Ruofei condescendingly: "It's meaningless to be stubborn!" As he spoke, he motioned to his subordinates to go down and pull An Ruofei. Gu Zhiyuan didn't want to delay for a moment, he was really afraid that there would be any changes at this time.
But An Ruofei had just finished testing Gu Zhiyuan's reaction, and she immediately understood that Gu Zhiyuan would never hurt her life. At this time, he also became bold, and just as his subordinates dismounted, An Ruofei reflexively jumped on the back of a guard's horse. Use the crossbow arrow in your hand to stab the horse's hind buttocks.
The horse neighed in pain, and then carried An Ruo away from the dust. Seeing this, Gu Zhiyuan was immediately furious, and the first one whipped and chased after him.
Although An Ruofei took the lead, after all, he was not good at equestrianism, and his physical strength was not good. After a while, Gu Zhiyuan's men and horses caught up, and seeing that they were about to be level with An Ruofei, a guard reached out and grabbed An Ruofei's clothes.
An Ruofei's heart became desperate again, and in the flash of light, a long horsewhip was drawn not far from him, hitting the guard's body impartially. The guards were dismounted in an instant, and Gu Zhiyuan looked back sharply, and it turned out to be a young man with a few family guards coming from the side path.
Gu Zhiyuan was furious, thinking that something went wrong three times twice today, and now he has run out of a person who is not long-sighted to disrupt the situation, I don't care who you are, dare to harm my business, just clean it up!
Here, Gu Zhiyuan turned his head and shouted: "The Xi family is chasing the thieves, and the idle people are all out of the way!" ”
The young man drove his horse to catch up, and said slowly: "I don't care if you are the Xi clan or the Dong clan, a group of big men bullying a weak woman, I just can't see it, I just have to take care of it." ”
As he spoke, he stepped forward again, and Gu Zhiyuan was about to signal his subordinates to stop him, but he and the others were stopped by the young man's men first.
The young man stood up on his horse's pedals, and jumped onto the back of An Ruo's pegasus with all his strength. It's a pity that the horse hasn't rested for too long, and suddenly there is another person's weight, and suddenly the front hooves fell to the ground softly, and the young man and An Ruofei also fell off the horse together.
In an instant, the originally white and pure young man became disgraced, and An Ruofei fainted directly.
Gu Zhiyuan wanted to take the opportunity to snatch An Ruofei and leave, but he had no choice but to have only three or five guards around him, and there were more than a dozen young people, so he could only watch him take An Ruofei away.
Gu Zhiyuan was so angry that his eyes were grinning, his fists were clenched, and his joints turned white. Hatefully ordered to his subordinates: "Return to Chongdu and act according to the original plan!" Although the person was snatched away, fortunately, Xi Yan didn't know, as long as An Ruofei didn't return to Si Le Fu, he Xi Yan didn't have to be led away by us. ”
After taking An Ruofei away, the young man didn't seem to know what force he had offended, he rode on the same horse with An Ruofei, wrapped her in front of him, and still hummed a little song in his mouth.
There was a whistling sound in his ears, and An Ruofei, who was originally asleep, slowly opened his eyes a slit, and said weakly: "Thank you for saving me, do you know that you have just offended the Xi family, one of the four major gates of Dazhao......"
When the young man saw An Ruofei wake up, he couldn't help but be a little happy, and said with a smile: "Wake up so soon?" What if I am offended, he knows who I am? ”
"Who are you?"
"My name is Meng Qingye, what about you?"
Hearing the young man's answer, but before he could say anything, An Ruofei couldn't support it, and was so tired that he fainted again.
Seeing this, Meng Qingye was stunned: "If you say you're dizzy, you'll be dizzy!" Tell me what your name is, where you live! ”
While speaking, he reached out to An Ruofei's wrist and found that she was already very weak, so he stopped talking and only hurried away.
