704. Chapter 704: A Warm Embrace
Kill her.
These three words are said cleanly, without ups and downs, as if they were just talking about today's night.
I paused for breath, but immediately, something understood.
Ye Fei told me before that Ah Lan was attacked after entering Yangzhou, and I have been thinking about whether the attack was aimed at her or me.
This woman, although I don't know who she is, it seems that she knows my name and knows that my face has been destroyed, it should be her people who attacked Ah Lan, and after knowing that I am not with Ah Lan, she came here to intercept the private boat crossing the river.
She even knew that I would definitely cross the river.
Who the hell is she? Why do you want my life if you have never met me?!
Before I could figure it out, the people around me had already come over. However, although they came over, they seemed to be a little hesitant, you look at me, I look inside, the knife in the hand is not yet unsheathed.
The woman snapped, "Don't do it yet?!" β
When those people heard this, they hurriedly stretched out their hands and drew their knives, and they heard a few loud sounds, and the steel knives came out of their sheaths, and the cold light shone on my face at once, stabbing my eyes with pain.
The faint bloody breath on the iron tool stimulated me to tremble, at this moment, it was really fate, I bit my lower lip hard, the skin was bitten, the blood stained the tip of the tongue, I raised my head and said, "You are so useless?" β
The slender figure standing in the dark night trembled, and looked back at me, breathing a little unsteadily: "What did you say?" β
"I say, you're so useless?"
ββ¦β¦β
"Dare to block me in this place, dare to kill me like this, but don't dare to see what is so good about me."
ββ¦β¦β
"Or is it that you actually know, because you know, that's why you are in a hurry to kill me."
The people around me were holding their breath at this moment, and they were all staring at me in disbelief, I had no strength to stand up, so I could only lie on the ground with a wolf, but I raised my head without the slightest sign of a wolf, as if I was still looking down at the person who had been straightening his back.
I laughed, "No wonder, you're going to kill me." β
ββ¦β¦β
"It's this kind of person who would do this kind of thing."
The woman's breath became more and more chaotic, and she suddenly turned around and walked in front of me, squatted down and stared straight into my eyes: "You think I'm afraid of you!" β
"Isn't it?"
"You-"
She clucked with her silver teeth, as if she wanted to come up and bite my tongue so I couldn't speak again, but the more I looked like this, the more I felt safer than I had just beenβalthough, only a little safer.
After being silent for a while, she seemed to be aware of her wolf bΓ¨i, turned her eyes to look at the tall figures around her, and waved her hand, "You guys retreat first." β
As if relieved, the men hurriedly put their knives back into their sheaths, and took a few steps back cautiously, until they heard the woman gritting her teeth and saying to me, "Do you know why I killed you?" β
My heart was pounding, but there was not much change on my face, I just looked at the beautiful face vaguely, with an angry look, thought about it, and then said calmly: "What else can a woman do to kill a woman who has never even met in person?" If a woman like you wants to fight and kill, there won't be any other reason than for a man, right? β
Her breathing became even more chaotic: "Do you know who I'm for?" β
ββ¦β¦β
This time, I was speechless.
In fact, those words just now were just my courage to try, just to delay time, and saying that she was for a man was just my guess, but I didn't expect it to be such a big fight for a man, and I felt more and more nervous.
Who is it?
Who is this person on the south bank of the Yangtze River?
Sensing my silence, her eyes flickered, and she suddenly sneered: "You don't know either, do you?" β
ββ¦β¦β
"Haha, you don't even know who I'm for, and you don't even know who is thinking about you for a long time."
ββ¦β¦β
"Yue Qingying, you don't deserve to die?!"
My breath was also a little unstable, but I still gritted my teeth and said, "I shouldn't die, and it's not someone else's turn to put a beak." β
Her gaze became cold, like a needle: "I don't care if you deserve to die or not, I just want you to die!" β
After speaking, she raised her hand and pulled out a short, sharp dagger from her boots, and the cold light was so cold that my heart beat violently, and my eyes widened in horror, and I heard her say coldly: "Okay, I'll make a break with you." β
ββ¦β¦β
"When I see Hades in the future, I will have my own discernment!"
With that, she raised her dagger and stabbed it at me.
At this moment, a person suddenly ran behind her, who seemed to be her entourage, and said breathlessly: "Miss, someone is coming." β
She was disturbed, and her brows furrowed: "So what? β
"Yes...... It's our people. β
"What?!"
She was startled, the dagger in her hand stiffened, and she subconsciously stood up and looked back, I only felt that I had walked to the door of the ghost gate, and stopped again, and the cold sweat all over my body was scared out, and I hurriedly looked up to look ahead, just hoping that I still had a glimmer of life.
I don't know what time it is, but from the time the boat was launched upstream, and slowly sailed along the river to this ferry port downstream, and then to their vigorous efforts to arrest and find people, I am afraid that it has passed most of the night, as if the distant horizon is no longer heavy pitch black, but faintly revealing a little light.
With that light, more torches approached from afar.
As if I saw a glimmer of life, my breathing became heavy, and the people here seemed to be a little panicked, and several people came up to see it, and soon disappeared into the night, and soon they all came back, bringing more people with them. Several soldiers walked up to the woman's side and said with a strange expression: "Miss, Butu brought someone here." β
Layout?
This name is so familiar......
I frowned, but at this moment, the poison was very uncomfortable, and I didn't have time to think about who it was, so I could only lie on the ground half-lying on my stomach, barely watching the fire in front of me getting brighter and brighter, it seemed that there were many people coming, and the footsteps shook the ground slightly.
In a few moments, the firelight was already illuminating the surroundings.
Only then did I see that the woman was not tall, but she was delicate, and she looked neat and noble in an ink-colored brocade dress, and she was followed by many people, all neatly dressed soldiers, and they were also respectful to her, and those people followed her as soon as they saw the people and horses coming.
I heard her say in a deep voice, "What are you doing here?" β
"What are you doing here?"
As soon as the voice sounded, the familiar feeling became more and more familiar, and I tried to see it clearly, but all I could see was a swaying figure and a flickering fire, and a cramping pain in my lower abdomen that made me almost faint.
For a while, the pain and discomfort were used like a tide, almost making me unconscious, I don't know how long it took, only to recover a little, and in a trance I heard another somewhat familiar voice sound, flattering and said: "My lord, that's right, the little one will not dare to lie to you." The woman and villain on the portrait of the government really know each other. β
My brow furrowed, and as soon as I raised my head through gritted teeth, I saw a groveling man standing in front of me, nodding his head in the firelight.
Gou Er!
He was standing in front of a person who seemed to be the leader, and said with a smile: "That woman's face is rotten, and it is different from the portrait, so no one else can recognize her, and adults can't find her in Yangzhou." But the villain's wife met her during the day, and gave her a lot of silver, and those silver were all from the small family, huh-"
ββ¦β¦β
"Hey, forgive me. The little ones followed them secretly and saw them. As soon as he found out that it was her, the villain immediately went to the government to report to the adults. The villain doesn't dare to lie, he doesn't dare to lie. β
Although I didn't have any strength left, I still gritted my teeth fiercely.
I didn't expect my meeting with Rue Xiang to be followed by him, thinking about it, it was probably Rue Xiang who went back to get the silver, was stopped by him, and beat people, but Rue Xiang still insisted on taking out the silver and giving it to me, but I was afraid that Gou Er would be unwilling at that time, so I secretly followed her and saw me.
He actually went to report to the government!
However, although I have always disliked him and hated insatiable people like him, it was he who saved me at this time. If he hadn't gone to the government to report, if he hadn't brought those people to find me, that is, just now, I would have been killed!
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
So, are these people coming here now from the Yangzhou government, or-
Although my vision was blurred by pain, and my mind was not very clear, I could feel a kind of horror just thinking about it. At this time, those people had already walked over, feeling that the woman and the people she brought had subconsciously retreated, Gou Er walked in front of me, looked down, and immediately pointed at me and said loudly: "That's right, that's right." It's her, she's the woman in the portrait, Yue Qingying! β
Yue Qingying!
These three words sounded in the night, somewhat with a touch of shocking feeling.
Then I heard footsteps.
Although there were a lot of people around, the footsteps seemed more urgent than anyone else, they were all heavier, with an unbearable urgency and uncontrollable throbbing, not only the woman's people retreated, but even those who had just come over also retreated, Gou Er was thrown aside by a person behind him with his neck on his shoulder.
A snow-white garment, as if dyed with ice and snow, swayed and appeared in front of me.
I just felt like I was taking a breath, and the next moment, I was already in a warm embrace.
"Young Baby!"
