Chapter 42: Falling off the Cliff
Early the next morning, while it was not too hot in the morning, the Hou Mansion and his party continued to hurry, and when it was close to noon, the carriage suddenly stopped, and Su Jinyan asked Su Yulian to accompany him to get off the car, and the convoy stopped to wait for them.
"Miss Five, let's take a rest, too!" said Wu Tong, "stop and rest for a while, drink some water, it's hot at this time, we have to rest in this forest for a while before we set off." ”
"It's fine. Su Tang'an fanned her fan gently, "Let the big guys eat something and rest for a while,"
She glanced around, this place is very remote, backed by a mountain, not far in front of the cliffs, dense forests, cicadas and birds, but also very quiet.
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a sudden shouting and killing, Wu Tong's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "It's not good, did you meet a strong man?"
"Miss......" Qing'er hid behind Su Ju'an with some fear, "What if I really encounter a robber?"
"Fifth Miss, don't be afraid, we will definitely protect the safety of the young ladies. Wu Tong said with a firm gaze and pulled out his knife, "Brothers, copy guys, cheer up." ”
"It's not good, Second Miss and Fourth Miss, Wu Tong, you can quickly bring someone to protect the two young ladies. Su Juan said.
"Yes. Wu Tong immediately took a few people to find Su Yulian and Su Jinyan back, and asked the rest of the people to protect the safety of the fifth lady.
"Don't be afraid, if you are really a robber, you will generally only seek money, and will not harm people's lives. Su Tang'an saw that Qing'er was very scared and comforted.
At this moment, several feathered arrows were shot down from the mountain.
"Ahh
This is not robbery, this is to kill, these people are not robbers, are they coming for her?
She remembered the rumors in the Hou Mansion that Su Cheng'an's mother was killed by robbers when she returned to her hometown to visit relatives, could it be that this is the handiwork of the eldest lady, and she will do the same trick again?
At this moment, an arrow hit the hip of the horse in Su Tang'an's carriage, and the frightened horse immediately spread his legs and ran forward, the carriage bumped left and right uncontrollably, the wheel ran over a stone, and the carriage was immediately thrown out.
Su Tang'an's eyes narrowed slightly, grabbed Qing'er's arm, and pushed her out when the carriage was about to fall off the cliff, and then Su Tang'an fell off the cliff with the carriage.
Qing'er fell heavily to the ground, watched the carriage fall, hurriedly threw herself to the edge of the cliff, and shouted in despair: "Miss!"
Su Yu was afraid to hide in the bushes, but Su Jinyan on the side was light and light, and he didn't look anxious or afraid at all.
"How could you meet a robber?" Su Yulian protected Su Jinyan behind him, swallowed his spit and said, "Don't be afraid, I will protect you." ”
"What am I afraid of?" Su Jinyan sneered, "It's not us who should be afraid, it's Su Cheng'an." ”
Su Yulian was slightly stunned, then turned his head and asked, "What do you mean by this?"
"Can't you see it yet?" Su Jinyan said calmly, "Aren't you familiar with this technique? This is obviously Madame's handwriting, why do you think I have to pull you off here?"
"Do you know everything?" Su Yu looked at Su Jinyan incredulously, "Although I don't like Su Cheng'an very much, but she is our sister, do you know what you're doing?" I know that Su Chengle and Su Cheng'an are fighting, but I didn't expect that someone would die! They have no conscience, why do you want to follow the same stream?"
"Because of jealousy, because of hatred, because of powerlessness!" Su Jin said with red eyes, "I'm a joke now, I don't want to be the one who is ignored anymore, even if I am a bad person, I want to be a master." Su Chengle will help me, with my posture and means, I will definitely be able to marry well, find a good way out for myself, I want to take the initiative, I don't want to rely on others to give alms, our father's eyes and hearts are just Su Cheng'an's fool, never us. I hate her, I have hated her since I was a child, and I hate her more than Su Chengle. ”
"You're crazy. Su Yulian bit her lip, "I'm going to find the fifth sister." ”
Su Jinyan grabbed her, stared at her eyes and said, "You're crazy, if you go down now, you're going to die with her!
"Aren't you afraid that I will tell my father about this?" Su Yulian said.
"I'm your own sister, a belly out of the belly, do you really want to do this to me for Su Cheng'an?" Su Jinyan said resentfully, "If you tell me about this matter, it's not just me, you offended Mrs. and Su Chengle, you can't gain a foothold in the Hou Mansion, even your mother will be implicated, do you really want to do that?"
At this time, Qing'er's desperate shouts came, and Su Jinyan sneered: "From now on, there will be no more Fifth Miss in the Hou Mansion." ”
Gu Tingjun has been leading people and following the group of Qihou Mansion, seeing this situation, he just frowned slightly.
"Childe, should we make a move?" asked his subordinate.
"Take a few people to help the people of the Hou Mansion deal with these robbers, pretending to be passers-by, just drawing swords to help. Gu Tingjun said, "Don't reveal your identity." ”
"Yes. What about Miss Five?"
"I'll see for myself. ”
"Yes. ”
After Wu Tong sent someone to protect the second and fourth misses, he immediately went to the bottom to support, seeing the fifth miss fall off the cliff, his heart was cold, this time he was afraid that he would not be able to explain to the Hou Ye, and he was extremely resentful in his heart, and vented his anger to the identity of the robber.
He has the ability to dispatch, and immediately organize the guards who were messing around below, using the trees as a cover, and slowly advance towards the mountain, making sure to wipe out these damn robbers and break their corpses into thousands of pieces.
At this time, several passing Jianghu people drew their swords to help, and after a while, those robbers were defeated, more than half of them died, and they fled for their lives.
Wu Tong finished dealing with the matter here, came to the edge of the cliff, and glanced down, there was no bottom, and he was afraid that he would die if he fell.
Before leaving, Hou Ye told him to protect the safety of several young ladies, but now that the fifth young lady has suffered an accident, he really wants to die.
Qing'er was crying on the side, Wu Tong ordered someone to help Qing'er aside, and sent someone down to check, no matter what, to find the body of Miss Five.
At the bottom of the cliff, some of the fog had not yet cleared, and on top of the rubble was fragmented fragments of a carriage.
Gu Tingjun glanced at it, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, there was no corpse, no bloodstains, the fifth lady really didn't tell him to underestimate, even if he fell off the cliff, he would be safe and sound.
He glanced around, there were no footprints around, but there were slight broken marks on the plants not far away, he performed light skills, jumped a few steps, stopped on a big tree, looked ahead, not far away by the river, a white figure was sitting on a smooth stone, looking at the surrounding scenery.
Gu Tingjun flew closer, and before he landed, a stone shot towards him, he dodged sideways, and said with a smile: "Fifth Miss is so good, she can't kill you if she falls to such a high place." ”
Su Tang'an played with a piece of gravel in his hand, glanced at Gu Tingjun, and said lightly, "That's why you asked me to be careful last night?"
"Looks like you didn't take my words to heart. Gu Tingjun shrugged his shoulders, "Or do you think that your skills are outstanding, and you don't need to take other people's words to heart at all?"
"You've followed me all the way?" asked Su Tang'an.
"yes, want to see how you're going to get out of it. Gu Tingjun said, "However, you still opened my eyes, it's amazing." ”
"You know what will happen today but you didn't tell me, you followed the robbers all the way and saw them do nothing, just to see what I would do?" Su Juan frowned slightly, "You are so interested in me, what if I can't meet your expectations and really die?"
"If you're really dead, you're dead. Gu Tingjun smiled faintly.
"You!" Su Ju'an was so choked that he couldn't speak, and said with hateful eyes, "On my birthday, you took me to see the lotus flower and gave me the Nine Flowers Jade Dew Pill, I thought we were friends, but I didn't expect that I thought too much." In your heart, people who don't have the ability to protect themselves will die when they die, and only capable people are qualified to be your friends, right?"
"I don't make a move, because I think you have a way to deal with the current situation, and it's not worth my action at all. Gu Tingjun sighed and walked towards Su Ju'an and sat down beside her, "I didn't expect that when the carriage was about to fall off the cliff, you would push your maid out, and you wouldn't jump out by yourself." ”
"She's someone who genuinely treats me. Su said, "She shouldn't have died because of me." I still have the possibility of living if I fall, and if she falls, she will definitely die. ”
Gu Tingjun looked at Su Ju'an with interest and muttered, "Fifth Miss, what kind of person are you? If I am also sincere to you, will you treat me like this in the future?"
"No!" Su Cheng got up and said categorically, "If you are good to me, then there is a purpose, how can you be sincere? ”
"Where are you going, since you have nothing to do, aren't you going back to the capital?" Gu Tingjun looked at Su Tang'an and walked forward, and asked loudly.
Su Juan turned his head and glanced at him coldly, frowned, and said, "What does it have to do with you?"
"Your foot is injured? I know a little bit about medicine, I'll help you!"
"Don't follow me. Su Tang'an said coldly.
Gu Tingjun grabbed his hair and said distressedly: "What should I do?
