Chapter 19 Is There a Cable Car in This Era?
Xia Ruo: "I'm afraid, but I can't watch my friend die here." β
Hearing Xia Ruo's words, Xiao Lanjue looked sarcastic.
"You have affection and righteousness."
"It's very suitable to go back to the cottage with Lao Tzu and let my brother open meat."
Xia Ruo: "I am the county lord of Yunmeng who was enshrined by the imperial court. β
"You're going to have to make a mistake!"
Xia Ruo's voice was very loud, startling all the birds and beasts nearby.
Seeing the panic on Xia Ruo's calm face, the contempt in Xiao Lanjue's eyes was even worse.
He approached Xia Ruo step by step, reaching out to pick her chin, with a threatening look in his eyes.
"County Lord? So what?"
"Lao Tzu hates the stench of you dignitaries the most."
Xia Ruo had no way to retreat, so he could only turn his head and not look at him, and scolded Wang Yunyan more than a dozen times in his heart.
(Wang Yunyan, you are good.) )
(We're just talking a few words, but you're hiring a bandit to kill me.) )
(The beam between us can be bigger, don't retaliate back, I'll have your surname.) )
(There are hoof prints of official horses around here, why hasn't anyone come yet?)
Xiao Lanjue whistled and called a jujube red horse.
Ignoring Xia Ruo's struggles, he grabbed her on the horse and rode away.
His next words made Xia Ruo break out in a cold sweat.
"I've been looking for you for a long time, Miss Xia."
"Lao Tzu won't let you die so easily."
"Your mother's sins, naturally you should pay for them."
System: "Congratulations to the host, the hidden plot has been unlocked successfully." β
"+1 bonus points."
Xia Ruo: (What kind of mess is this?)
(Who is this man?) What did my mother do?)
(What are Reward Points?) What's the use?)
(Damn, it's mute again at the critical moment)
Seeing that Xia Ruo didn't speak, Xiao Lanjue had a sneer on the corner of her mouth.
"What? Are you scared silly?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a cloud-piercing arrow breaking through the air in front of him.
Xiao Lanjue instinctively dodged, the arrow hit the horse's body, and the horse let out a terrible neigh, and fell to the ground.
Xiao Lanjue: "Resist the wind!"
"Who did it! Get out of here!"
The horse that had followed him since he was a child died, Xiao Lanjue's eyes were split, and he raised his knife and roared towards the forest opposite.
In response, another flying arrow struck him in the shoulder.
Xiao Lanjue pulled out the arrow in pain, and without saying a word, blood splattered out, and the severe pain almost made him unable to hold the knife.
Seeing that he was at a disadvantage, he glanced at Xia Ruo angrily and flew away.
Xiao Lanjue: "Lao Tzu won't let you go!"
After Xiao Lanjue left, after a while, a teenager walked out of the forest.
Xia Ruo recognized at a glance that he was Qin Dingcheng, the king of Qi.
The reason is that he is so easy to recognize.
He was born extremely handsome and elegant, with deep and shallow outlines, very similar to Qin Ding'an.
But he is more heroic than Qin Ding'an, and the whole person is full of righteousness.
Qin Dingcheng: "This king is late, can Miss Xia be in the way?"
Seeing Qin Dingcheng, her hanging heart was completely let go.
Xia Ruo: (The future emperor is here, I don't have to die.) )
"It's okay, thank you for saving your Royal Highness King Qi."
"Your Royal Highness King Qi, my maid fainted nearby, please save her."
Qin Dingcheng: "Okay, Miss Xia will lead the way." β
When she found Lian'er, she was surrounded by several wolves.
Xia Ruo: "Lian'er!"
Qin Dingcheng did not hesitate, pulled his bow and arrow, and shot the wolf with one arrow.
The wolves fled in response, and Xia Ruo hurriedly stepped forward to check on Lian'er's situation.
Seeing that she was fine, Xia Ruo's hanging heart was relaxed.
Qin Dingcheng stretched out his hand to touch Lian'er's veins, and when he saw that her pulse was disordered, his brows furrowed, and he raised his hand to hug her.
Qin Dingcheng: "Offended." β
"Miss Xia, this girl is seriously injured, I'll take you out to find a doctor."
Xia Ruo: "Thank you, Your Royal Highness King Qi, for saving me." β
"His Royal Highness King Qi's great kindness, Xia Ruo is really beyond repayment."
She dropped a pearl from her waist and handed it to Qin Dingcheng.
Xia Ruo: "If you don't dislike it, then accept this thing." β
"This is the night pearl of the Western Regions, worth 10,000 gold, and it should be a thank you gift for saving me and Lian'er."
(King Qi has always been a little transparent, guarding that tight Yulu, and he doesn't even have money to repair the house.) )
(With this bead, it should be possible to solve his dilemma.) )
Qin Dingcheng glanced at the beads in Xia Ruo's hand, and his steps did not stop at all, fast and steady.
"Thank you Miss Xia for your kindness, but I can't accept this thing."
"Si Chen and I are good friends, you are his fiancΓ©e, I should naturally protect you."
"If I accept your thank you, it will tarnish my friendship with Si Chen."
"So, please take it back Miss Xia, your kindness, Xiao Wang understands it."
Seeing that he was in good spirits, Xia Ruo was not reluctant, and the two hurried to the medical hall.
Fortunately, when she was sent to the hospital, Lian'er was fine, but she still had no intention of waking up.
Shuang'er: "Miss, why are you here?"
"Lian'er, what's wrong?"
Xia Ruo: "It's a long story, I'll explain to you when I get home." β
Shuang'er suddenly remembered something, leaned on the window and looked at the sun that was about to sink in the west, and pushed Xia Ruo out of the door with an anxious expression.
Shuang'er: "Miss, go and pray for the Queen Mother!" β
"It's unitary time now."
"If you can't get to the mountain gate at the right time, the Queen Mother and her old man will be angry!"
"Last year, the young lady of the Da Sima family went late, and she was fined forty sticks in public."
"Her waist tendons were all broken, and she collapsed on the bed, and she couldn't move until now."
Hearing Lian'er's words, Xia Ruo remembered the high staircase, shivered, and got a bunch of goosebumps on his body.
Xia Ruo: "Help!"
"There's no way I'm going to climb up in half an hour!"
"You take good care of Lian'er, I'll run first!"
Shuang'er: "Miss, you can't go, what should you do if you leave?"
Xia Ruo: "Ah! Why didn't I think of it, and my mother! β
"Ahh Help!"
Qin Dingcheng: "Miss Xia, don't panic first, this king has a way." β
"I just don't know if Miss Xia is willing to give it a try.
Xia Ruo: "Yes, willing!"
"As long as I don't become disabled, I'm willing to try anything."
Qin Dingcheng: "Then please Miss Xia come with me!" β
Qin Dingcheng took Xia Ruo, and the two came to a hidden place at the foot of the mountain.
Qin Dingcheng walked to the side of the stone wall, knocked on the mountain stone, and unscrewed a mechanism.
The scene in front of him was so startled that Xia Ruo's eyes couldn't help but widen.
I saw two wrist-thick hemp ropes appear in front of me, and iron ropes were still wrapped around them.
The rope slammed forward from the foot of the mountain, clutching at two nearby trees where the three of them were hugging.
Xia Ruo: "This ...... It's ......"
(I'm rubbing, there are still cable cars in this era?)
Seeing Xia Ruo stammering, Qin Dingcheng thought she was scared and comforted her gently.
"Miss Xia, don't panic, this is not witchcraft."
"It's just Lu Ban's technique."
