Chapter 107: Running away in the middle of the night
At the beginning of Bai Wutong's departure, Gu Wanwan had promised him that she would definitely get the metallurgy before he returned, but now she broke her promise.
"The princess doesn't have to feel guilty, we can find another chance to find the cheats, and what we need to do now is to leave this dangerous place immediately." Bai Wutong shook his head and said.
In his mind, there is nothing as important as Gu Wanwan's safety!
"But ...... "But is it really like this?" She wasn't prepared at all.
"What? Princess, don't you want to leave? Bai Wutong's face turned pale, and his eyes were full of urgency when he stared at Gu Wanwan.
"No, I just think it's too cheap Yan Wushuang to leave like this." Gu Wanwan replied angrily.
It must be like this! Only this reason can make her hesitate at this time!
After hearing this, Bai Wutong's face turned better, and he chuckled: "Princess, don't worry, stay in the green mountains without worrying about no firewood!" ”
Yes, as long as there is a life, are you still worried that you can't take revenge on Nanyue and Yan Wushuang? Bai Wutong was in danger for her, and now she is seriously injured, and now if she causes him to have an accident because of her hesitation, then she will definitely feel guilty for the rest of her life.
Thinking of this, Gu Wanwan no longer hesitated, and after simply packing up, she fled with Bai Wutong and left the Yanwang Mansion in the night.
Although at this moment, there were Praetorian Guards at all intersections of the imperial city, but these little people were not a problem at all, and it didn't take long for Gu Wanwan and Bai Wutong to escape from the imperial city together.
After leaving the city, the cold wind seemed to be stronger, Rao is she wore two cotton clothes, and she could also deeply feel the cold wind eroding her bones, so she was very worried about Bai Wutong, his physical strength seemed to be exhausted, and he walked more and more slowly.
"White Sycamore, how are you?" Gu Wanwan hurriedly went over to help him and said, "Let's find a place to shelter from the wind and rest first!" ”
As she spoke, Gu Wanwan had already looked around, the moon had long been obscured by dark clouds, and it was very difficult to distinguish objects in the dark night, she really didn't know if there was a place here that could shelter the cold wind.
"No, this is an abandoned place, and there is no place to hide from the cold." Bai Wutong said in a weak voice, "Princess, let's continue on our way!" It's coming soon! ”
Bai Wutong said that he had already contacted some of the old ministries of the Xiliang Nu Kingdom, and the reason why he was able to get rid of the subordinates sent by Yan Wushuang this time and successfully return to the Nanyue Kingdom to save her unknowingly was also due to the help of those old ministry.
Ten miles from the Imperial City there was a forest, where people were waiting, and once they got there, they could escape from the South Vietnamese Kingdom.
An hour later, the two arrived at the forest, and by that time Bai Wutong was already weak and very weak, and he could barely walk with Gu Wanwan's support.
Soon after the two entered the forest, two people came forward.
"White Protector, what's wrong with you?" Among them, the tallest one hurriedly helped Gu Wanwan to support Bai Wutong.
Bai Wutong briefly explained the matter to the two, and after the two learned Gu Wanwan's identity, they immediately knelt down and saluted: "The ministers and others knock to see the princess!" I am willing to swear allegiance to the princess, and I will not give up! ”
"Stand up, two of you!" Gu Wanwan helped the two of them up.
At this time, Bai Wutong had already fainted due to physical exhaustion, and everyone stopped talking, and the two of them helped Bai Wutong to walk briskly in front, Gu Wanwan followed, and after a while, they came to a carriage.
It's just that this carriage is a little strange, only the body, no axles and wheels. The original wheels were tied to a white, tired fawn-like animal, three in all, one in the front and two in the back.
"This is ......," Gu Wanwan said in surprise.
"Princess, please don't panic, this is a carriage specially made by the White Protector to rescue the princess."
"Carriage?" Gu Wanwan still couldn't help but wonder, could such a carriage really take them out of Nanyue?
"Yes, princess, please get in the car first, and the minister will explain it to you in detail." The tall man looked ahead with worried eyes, "In case the pursuers arrive, you must leave this place first." ”
That's right, now is not the time to be curious about this, and you can't afford to waste time.
After Gu Wanwan got into the carriage, the tall man stood at the front of the carriage and recited a string of terms to the little white beast at the front, and the carriage really moved.
But instead of running forward, he flew towards the sky, Gu Wanwan was stunned: "How is this?" What kind of species are these? ”
She could guess that it was a running animal, and it ran very fast, so Bai Wutong wanted to use them as a wheel to travel, but she didn't expect it to be able to fly, and it was so fast, almost in minutes, it rushed into the blue sky.
The sky was slightly shining, and a slightly cool wind blew in through the window of the carriage, galloping between the voids like this for the first time, Gu Wanwan held down his heart that was beating faster.
At this time, the tall man had already returned to the carriage and explained respectfully to Gu Wanwan: "Princess, don't panic, the mount of this carriage is a white spirit animal unique to my Xiliang Women's Country, the white spirit beast is different from ordinary beasts, they are as light as swallows, they can fly freely in the blue sky, and they can leave Nanyue Country quickly with them." ”
Light as a swallow? Flying freely? When listening to these two words, Gu Wanwan's mind had already appeared with the three little white beasts he had seen outside the carriage just now, he really didn't expect them to be so bullish!
"And the term you just read is what drives them to fly?" Gu Wanwan asked curiously. She was curious to know how the people of the Xiliang Women's Country drove the white spirit beast to travel for her.
"Back to the princess, these three white spirit beasts were raised by the white protector himself, which is different from ordinary white spirit beasts, but the white protector had already taught the minister the terminology of driving the white spirit beast before going to save the princess, it may be that the white protector had expected that he would be injured......" Speaking of this, he frowned and sighed heavily.
"We really should insist on going with the White Protector, and we shouldn't let him risk it alone." The other took over, his words full of remorse.
"Don't be like this, Bai Wutong will be fine, it's imperative, we have to find a doctor for him first." Seeing the self-blaming appearance of the two, Gu Wanwan comforted her.
She knew Bai Wutong's temperament, for the sake of the great cause of restoring the country, how could he bear to let these loyal ministers of his homeland take risks with him? He must have used a tough attitude to force the two to stay.
And these two people succumbed to Bai Wutong's order to stay, and now seeing that Bai Wutong was seriously injured, they felt guilty after they understood Bai Wutong's painstaking efforts. But that's not what White Sycamore wants to see.
After listening to Gu Wanwan's words, the two of them retracted their expressions slightly.
"Rest assured, princess, there is a famous doctor among our people, and he will definitely be able to cure the White Protector." The person who had been with Bai Wutong raised his head and replied.
"That's good!" Hearing this, Gu Wanwan's hanging heart was put down, and when she looked at the two of them again, she remembered that she didn't know the names of the two of them, so she asked with a smile, "What's your name?" ”
"Back to the princess, the minister's name is Zhang Han!" First, the tall man replied respectfully.
"Princess, Weichen's name is Zhang Li!" The other replied.
"You're two brothers?" Hearing that both of them were surnamed Zhang, and seeing the similarities between their eyebrows, he guessed.
"Yes, princess." The two replied in unison.
Then the two took out the dry food prepared in advance to satisfy Gu Wanwan's hunger, which was a crispy and delicious dough cake. I don't know if it's because I didn't eat anything last night and kept fleeing, or because this cake is really delicious, Gu Wanwan ate several pieces in one go, and the two brothers Zhang Han smiled comfortably when they saw it.
"Weichen originally thought that the princess couldn't eat these coarse grains!" Zhang Han's eyes shone with surprise.
"How so? This cake is delicious! Gu Wanwan shook her head and smiled.
She was telling the truth, and this cake was not a coarse grain in her eyes, thinking that in the beginning, when she robbed tombs everywhere, many times in order to dig up some treasures, she couldn't even take care of eating.
If she goes to some remote place, she can only go hungry after eating the dry food she brings, she has not suffered hardship, and she will not dislike what she can eat.
Hearing Gu Wanwan's words, the two brothers Zhang Han were even more impressed by this beautiful princess!
After eating, she felt sleepy, so Gu Wanwan took a nap in the carriage, but when she woke up, it was already sunshine. Lifting the curtain of the carriage and looking at the rare bright sunshine outside the window, Gu Wanwan's thoughts flew up.
At this time, Yan Wushuang should know that he has left the Yan Palace, right? Would he be angry that he didn't say goodbye? Will they be very worried, worried that the land of the Xiliang Women's Country that they are trying to obtain will come to naught?
Whether he is worried or not, Gu Wanwan just wants to tell him that she will get back everything that belongs to the Xiliang Women's Kingdom, because she is the princess of the Xiliang Women's Kingdom!
After another half a day, when night fell, Zhang Han came to report: "Princess, the camp is at your feet!" ”
Hearing him say this, Gu Wanwan realized that the carriage had stopped moving forward and was slowly sinking. I don't know why, Gu Wanwan felt that her heart was gradually sinking with this rhythm.
"You're already out of South Vietnam, aren't you?" After a long time, she asked. Looking out the window, her eyes in the distance became dim, she really couldn't imagine that so soon, she would be so far away from Yan Wushuang, there are thousands of mountains and rivers, right?
"Princess Huiyu, she hasn't left Nanyue yet, but this place is blocked from Guanshan, the imperial city of Nanyue, with thousands of mountains and rivers, and the chasing soldiers will never arrive for a while and a half." Zhang Han replied truthfully.
Before the carriage was completely lowered, Gu Wanwan heard the sound of cheers and jumps from the ground.
"Everyone, come and see the princess, the princess of our Xiliang Female Country!"
"Knock on the princess! Long live the princess, long live, long live! ”
In the midst of a mountain cry, Gu Wanwan walked out of the carriage, and when she looked up, hundreds of people knelt at her feet. Gu Wanwan was stunned, her cheeks were dyed red, this was the first time she had experienced what it was like to be a leader.
In the past, there were people who knelt on her, but they were all because of her identity, but now these people are different, these people are all subjects of the Xiliang Women's Country, and they are all Xiliang Women's Countrymen who look at her as the head of the horse and are sincere to her.
"Hurry up, everyone, don't kneel on the ground, it's just raining, and the ground is very wet."
