The river is turbulent and sinks deep to the bottom of the lake. Zhou Zhenzhen was a little in a trance, and she seemed to gradually lose her ability to distinguish whether she was in reality or in a fantasy realm.

- "Aon! Look, I've learned all the swordsmanship that my brother taught me! ”

Zhou Zhenzhen took a short sword and ran towards Pingyang Hou.

Seeing her coming, Pingyang Hou immediately smiled and opened his arms. Zhou Zhenzhen immediately threw herself into Ah Weng's arms.

"Ah Weng, I really learned swordsmanship, you can teach me something else."

"That's not good, practicing martial arts is not better than others, and you can't rush for quick success. Ask your brother if he agrees to teach you. ”

Zhou Zhenzhen muttered and looked at her brother with a pitiful little expression.

Zhou Chi'an, the son of the Zhou family, walked slowly with a gun and touched Zhou Zhenzhen's little head, his eyes full of doting.

"Ah Weng is right, Xi Wu is not in a hurry. When we get to our house, when Zhen Zhen is older, my brother will teach you the rest, okay? ”

Zhou Zhenzhen was a little reluctant, but she still nodded obediently.

……

Originally, everything was so familiar, but in a trance, Zhou Zhenzhen's body was light. Before she could open her eyes, Aunt Qing's big hand covered her eyes, picked her up by the waist, and hurriedly hid in the dark room of the ancestral hall.

Zhou Zhenzhen didn't cry or make trouble, just let Aunt Qing hold her, but she could clearly feel Aunt Qing's trembling body and low crying.

She didn't know what was going on outside, only the clash of weapons and a distinct scream.

I don't know how long it took, but there was no sound outside. Aunt Qing walked out of the dark room cautiously with Zhou Zhenzhen in her arms.

"Click, click."

It seems that something is dripping and being stepped on by Aunt Qing.

Zhou Zhenzhen lowered her head, and what caught her eye was a pool of blood that had not yet dried up. She stiffened, and even though she was young, she could guess the truth.

"Aunt Qing, where is my Ah Weng and my brother?" Zhou Zhenzhen's eyes were red, and she raised her head and asked Aunt Qing.

Aunt Qing is a mute woman who was taken in by her late mother and is also Zhou Zhenzhen's nursing mother. It's just that she can't speak and can't answer Zhou Zhenzhen's question.

She could only hug Zhou Zhenzhen with tears in her eyes.

Tick –

A drop of blood landed on the top of Zhou Zhenzhen's head and ran down her hair across the corners of her forehead.

She slowly raised her head, and as soon as she raised her eyes, she saw Zhou Chi'an's head hanging at the door of the ancestral hall.

Black hair is messy and eyes are wide open.

Zhou Zhenzhen was not afraid, just stared blankly, looking at her only brother.

The heart seems to be gradually numb.

Aunt Qing covered her eyes again, picked her up and rushed out of the ancestral hall.

That night, the wind blew fiercely, and the rain fell on the bricks and tiles of Jinling City.

She saw her brother whose body was separated, her sister-in-law who was picked up by a halberd and pierced her belly, and Ah Weng who knelt outside the gate of Jinling City with a spear.

and the countless soldiers who defended the city were killed.

The blood spread from her feet, and she couldn't hold it anymore. snuggled tightly to Aunt Qing, grabbed her clothes and cried loudly.

Aunt Qing also cried, but she couldn't cry no matter what.

The two women and children knelt on the ground in the rain like this, and they were in trouble and confused next to the blood and water all over the ground.

……

"Miss Zhou? Miss Zhou, wake up! ”

Who? Who's talking?

Zhou Zhenzhen frowned.

She struggled in the darkness, trying to break through an unclinching shackle. There seemed to be a breeze blowing in my ears, but it was noisy.

Seeing that he couldn't wake up Zhou Zhenzhen no matter how much he shouted, Shen Yanbai was so anxious that he turned around.

He folded his hands and bowed to Zhou Zhenzhen, making an apology, "Offended Miss Zhou!" I'm here to save you! Don't blame me! ”

After babbling, he closed his eyes and stretched out his hand to pick up the clothes on Zhou Zhenzhen's chest-

He had to go in for Zhou Zhenzhen and force the choked water out.

Just do it, Shen Yanbai seemed to hold a look of death, pressed Zhou Zhenzhen's chest a few times, pinched her nose and took a breath.

After repeating this for a few times, Zhou Zhenzhen finally had an extremely strong reaction.

She coughed up violently and awoke from her coma.

Shen Yanbai was overjoyed, and held her shoulders and gently lifted her up.

Zhou Zhenzhen fell off the cliff and fell to the bottom of the lake, but because the previous fight consumed too much strength, she almost drowned after falling into the lake.

"It's good that you're awake, but it took me a lot of effort to drag you ashore from the river." Shen Yanbai asked Zhou Zhenzhen for credit.

Zhou Zhenzhen struggled to recall what had happened before, and intermittent memories flooded into her mind. She subconsciously tidied up her dress, but she felt inexplicably cool on her chest.

As soon as he lowered his head, his face instantly turned red.

"You're ripping off my clothes?"

Shen Yanbai didn't know that he was going to be unlucky, and still told her about his great process of heroically saving people.

"Yes, if I hadn't saved you, you would have drowned! Don't thank me too much! ”

Zhou Zhenzhen snorted coldly, and her hands itched for a moment.

She wants to kill Shen Yanbai, a fool, to vent her anger!

"How dare you pick my clothes! Stinky Rascal!! ”

Zhou Zhenzhen roared angrily and slapped him in the face, which caught Shen Yanbai off guard, and his eyes were full of stars.

Zhou Zhenzhen hurriedly tidied up her dress and turned over, then bullied Shen Yanbai under her and slashed him.

Shen Yanbai had never seen such a fierce woman, and he only dared to hold his head and beg for mercy but did not dare to fight back.

"Miss Zhou, I was wrong! I was wrong! ”

"You stinky rascal! You dare to pick up my clothes! Do you need to pick up clothes to save people?! ”

Shen Yanbai dodged everywhere, begging for mercy again and again, and finally grabbed her wrist and reflexively pressed her under him.

"Miss Zhou, it's my fault to pick up your clothes, but I saved you, if I hadn't found out that you had lost your strength in half of the swim, you would have drowned by now! To be a man you have to speak of conscience, even if I don't have merit, there is hard work! ”

"I don't need you to save me!"

Zhou Zhenzhen immediately raised her legs, bent them, and kicked him out directly with her knees.

Shen Yanbai was pushed out by her knee and fell on all fours.

Zhou Zhenzhen got up and hugged herself.

Thanks to her before, she kindly arranged for someone to secretly protect him. Now it seems that she and Shen Yanbai are incompatible!

The things that were originally planned were complicated by him like this, and it was already rare for Zhou Zhenzhen to be able to stand and talk to him patiently. If you were someone else, you would have seen Hades earlier!

"Your Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, did I, Zhou Lingli, owe you in my last life? Why is it always good to meet you every time! ”

"What do you mean every time? How many times have we met? Shen Yanbai retorted.

He immediately snapped out his fingers and counted with her to listen—

"The Great General's Mansion in the past, the temple fair today. It's only two times in total. Miss Zhou, don't sprinkle all your displeasure on me because of a moment of anger! ”

"You ......" Zhou Zhenzhen was speechless for a while.

That's right, in Shen Yanbai's opinion, the two of them have indeed only met twice. But for Zhou Zhenzhen, Shen Yanbai, a troublesome guy, has been involved in her plan.

There is a limit to how much Zhou Zhenzhen can tolerate, but for the sake of the big plan, she can only endure it again and again! It's really annoying and infuriating!

"His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, I'm excited. I'm grateful for your life, but let's leave it at that. ”

After speaking, Zhou Zhenzhen turned her head and left. Shen Yanbai hurriedly caught up.

"Why are you so stubborn, little lady? Do you know where we're now? ”

"I don't know!"

Zhou Zhenzhen didn't look back, Shen Yanbai followed behind her and continued to ask.

"Do you know the way back?"

"I don't know!!"

"It's dangerous for you to leave alone without knowing anything."

"His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, count me as a begging you, don't follow me anymore!"

Zhou Zhenzhen said, in order to get rid of Shen Yanbai, she actually lifted her skirt and ran. Shen Yanbai still followed behind her buttocks, not leaving an inch.

……

Outside Qinglong Temple, Li Jingwen, who chased him out alone, met the disciples of Jin Yulou who were about to evacuate in the forest.

And the disciples of Jin Yulou were also surprised to see Li Jingwen.

After all, the landlord didn't tell them that the eldest grandson of the emperor was going to meet them.

However, in such a scene, I am afraid that Li Jingwen has mistaken them for those assassins. He didn't talk much nonsense, and immediately raised his knife.

The disciples of Jin Yulou had been extremely rigorously trained, and they were not as easy to deal with as the group of undisciplined assassins.

Soon Li Jingwen realized that something was wrong - he probably recognized the wrong target.

If they weren't Assassins, where did the Assassins flee?

Li Jingwen confronted the disciples of Jin Yulou, and neither of the two sides refused to back down.

"Who are you? Who sent you to assassinate His Highness the Crown Prince? ”

"Assassination of the Prince? We don't have that kind of casual elegance. ”

Li Jingwen frowned, "Aren't you guys in a group?" ”

"His Royal Highness King Yong is smart. We are waiting for the Jianghu sect to do things just on the orders of the Lord. ”

Li Jingwen's thoughts swirled in his mind, and he seemed to have figured out something. But in the end, I still felt that something was wrong.

"Even so, your presence here today is not in the favor of my court. Obediently tie up your hands and go back with this king to explain things clearly! ”

"Huh! His Royal Highness King Yong, is this joking with us? ”

Li Jingwen raised his eyebrows, showing his edge.

"This is the Qinglong Temple in the eastern suburbs, and reinforcements will arrive soon. It's too late for you to disarm and surrender. ”

The disciples of Jin Yulou glanced at each other and didn't care. They didn't even bother to take care of Li Jingwen, they just wanted to complete the task and return to Jinyu Tower.

Li Jingwen saw that they didn't enter the oil and salt and did not persuade them much, so he raised the knife and went on again.

Facing Li Jingwen's step-by-step pressing, the disciples of Jin Yulou just wanted to get out and leave quickly. They had a very tacit understanding to let one group withdraw first, leaving only a few people behind.

Next to the mountain forest, Zhou Yichen worked hard to climb up the mountain around the path. As soon as she emerged, a short arrow with a sleeve slashed across her cheek, cutting through her skin. She was so frightened that she screamed and fell to the ground.

She was completely dumbfounded, and the feeling of brushing shoulders with death made her shiver unconsciously.

But before she could come to her senses, she was drawn into an unwarranted battle. One after another crossbow arrows were shot at her, and even Zhou Yichen didn't know what he had done wrong and was going to suffer this crime.

She doesn't know martial arts, she has no ability to protect herself, and she can only be frightened to hold her head.

But Li Jingwen rushed to her at the critical moment, wielding a knife and a crossbow arrow.

He bent down and pulled Zhou Yichen up, and Zhou Yichen's face was full of tears and his nervous eyes were speechless for a while.

"Girl, are you in trouble?"

Zhou Yichen subconsciously shook his head without thinking about it.

But as soon as the words fell, Li Jingwen was attacked by the disciples of Jin Yulou.

A crossbow arrow shot directly into his shoulder blade, and his right arm immediately hurt and his right arm was out of force, the blade was out of his hand, and finally planted straight on Zhou Yichen's body.

But Zhou Yichen was a weak woman, and she couldn't bear the weight he pressed over at all. The two of them slipped and both rolled down the steep slope behind them.
