Chapter 95: Salvation
Shu Mei felt that although she had never been sunk in her life, she was very embarrassed this time and twice. Last time, he was chased and killed by Xiao Xuan, and this time he was besieged by refugees.
Just now, the body shook so badly that the guards said outside that they couldn't stand it and let them get out of the car, Shu Mei had to quickly wake up Su Yalan and drag her out of the carriage in a hurry.
To say that Su Yalan is definitely a talent, she has been like that outside, she can still sleep in the car, and Shu Mei only admires her.
As soon as she got off the car, Shu Mei found that the situation was even worse than she thought, she thought that the refugees would retreat after seeing the blood, but she was too naΓ―ve, these magnificent carriages probably represent not only food in their eyes, but a kind of hatred that has nowhere to vent.
Zhumen's wine and meat stink, and there are frozen bones on the road.
Although there were already many corpses lying on the ground, there were at least seventy or eighty refugees, and they were all red-eyed and desperate, and Shumei's carriage was almost overturned, so the guards let them get out of the car.
There were only eight guards here, and Shu Mei saw that his coachmen were all on board.
Without thinking too much, Shu Mei wanted to take a few of them to hide in the woods, and just after running two steps, a dark and thin hand stretched out next to him. Standing in front of her was a skinny skinny person who would move if it weren't for his eyes, and he would have thought he was a dried corpse.
The hands were about to grab their arms, and Shu Mei grabbed the branch he picked up when he just got out of the car and pulled it over. But before she could draw the man, an arrow pierced through the man's left eye, splattering blood on her face, followed by several arrows that shot down several refugees who were approaching them.
Following the direction from which the arrow came, Shu Mei looked over and saw a person in the woods bending his bow and shooting arrows, riding a black horse and rushing out. She couldn't see the appearance of the people on the horse, but the team of people who followed closely made Shu Mei hopeful.
There is salvation!
They were followed by a rain of arrows, each of which saw a refugee fall. Some of the refugees saw that the momentum was not good, so they quickly ran away, but they still could not escape the pursuit of those iron arrows.
Soon, the men and horses arrived, the knives were unsheathed, and the crushing slaughter began.
Within a quarter of an hour, the group of refugees had been almost slaughtered, with only a few running into the woods.
Xiao Xuan grabbed the reins and said coldly: "Chase, don't miss a single one!" β
The black horse stopped abruptly and neighed unhappily, its hooves kicking on the ground, splashing up a cloud of dust, and the hot air from the horse's nose was very close to Shu Mei.
At this time, Shu Mei had already recognized the person, and suddenly stood stiffly in place and couldn't move. The angle of the backlight made her unable to see Xiao Hang's expression at this time, but she knew that she must not look good.
Xiao Hang didn't get off the horse, looked at Shu Mei, and suddenly bent down and reached out to rub the blood on her cheek, wiping away a red mark.
But just when he was about to pinch Shu Mei's chin, Shu Mei turned his head to dodge.
Then Shu Mei suddenly took two steps back and knelt down, bowed his head and kowtowed: "Thank you for King Cheng's life-saving grace." β
Su Yalan and the others also reacted, and then knelt down to thank him.
Looking at the somewhat trembling shoulders of the person in front of him, the sideburns wet with sweat, and the slightly trembling but still untamed appearance of the person's voice, Xiao Hang withdrew his hand and said, "Get up." β
Shu Mei stood up and bowed his head silently, and Xiao Hang's gaze did not take his eyes off her from beginning to end.
No one spoke, and the atmosphere froze for a moment.
At this time, Chang Ke's carriage came from Liangchen's exclamation: "Someone, Miss fainted!" β
didn't bother to look at Xiao Hang's reaction, Shu Mei retreated, and hurriedly ran over.
Yan He, the chief of the guard, saw Xiao Hang's horse move, and asked, "Lord Wang, do you want it?" β
The last time he came back from the palace, he was involved in it, so although the question was a little clueless, the meaning was obvious.
"Forget it."
After speaking, Xiao Hang glanced over there again, and then beat the horse and left.
Xiao Hang came and went in a hurry, Shu Mei listened to the sound outside in Chang Ke's carriage and knew that everyone was gone, and his back that had been tense was relaxed, and his palms were already sweaty.
Chang Ke in the carriage was pale and his eyes were closed.
Su Yalan was beside her, and said anxiously: "Let's hurry into the city to find a doctor." β
"It's too slow to get into the city, and I don't know if I'll meet refugees." Shu Mei paused and said, "Go back to Miaofeng Nunnery to find Master Qingxu." β
###
After all, the refugees were just a rabble, several guards and coachmen were unharmed, but they were tired of killing, and two of them were slightly injured, one was stoned, and one was bitten.
When I went back, I was much faster than I walked, and I arrived at Myomine-an in less than two quarters of an hour.
Master Qingxu came over in person soon, and after checking Chang Ke's pulse, he wrote a prescription for people to decoction of medicine, fortunately, Miaofengan has a complete variety of medicinal materials, otherwise he has to catch the medicine, which will be much more difficult.
Shu Mei asked Su Yalan to send Master Qingxu back, while she stayed.
When everyone went out, Shu Mei said, "When are you going to pretend?" β
Chang Ke's eyelids moved, and he opened them instead, smiling rather than smiling: "You're not stupid." β
At that time, the situation was urgent, and this was the only way to do it. Because he had to stop Xiao Hang and delay him to Huguo Temple, otherwise he would fall short, although he calculated Shu Mei, he didn't feel guilty at all.
"Each other, each other." Shu Mei understands that Chang Ke pretends to be dizzy in order to relieve himself.
Just now, Xiao Hang could have captured himself and killed the others, pretending to be besieged to death by refugees......
Shu Mei felt that he must have thought about it, but in the end he gave up for some reason.
Now she has fully understood what Chang Ke is doing, what refugees, what hurry back to the city, and what to take care of on the way back, all designed to meet Xiao Hang on the way, I'm afraid those refugees were also attracted by his subordinates.
"What if they don't come?"
"He's definitely coming." Because you're there.
The second half of the sentence is often not spoken, but Shu Mei has already understood.
Although he was used as bait, Shu Mei only felt tired, and he didn't even have the strength to be angry. The rest of her life after the catastrophe was worth celebrating, but her heart was heavy, not easy at all, and she felt cold......
Shu Mei closed his eyes, and all that flashed in front of him were those skinny figures with wide-eyed eyes.
No matter how much he said, he had no intention of saying anything, so he got up and prepared to go out.
Chang Ke sat up behind her and said, "Don't tell my brother!" β
Shu Mei didn't look back, and said lightly: "Do you think you can hide it from him?" β
"I'm going to die." Chang Ke wailed and collapsed on the bed.
The performance of the coachman just now has explained everything, that is by no means the skill that an ordinary coachman should have, Shu Mei felt that it was necessary to ask him after going back, if he could deliver a letter to Luo Xiu.
Speaking of Luo Xiu, Shu Mei's heart gradually warmed up, and she really missed him a little......
