Chapter Seventy-Eight: Look at Who I've Met
The passage is not long, and the exit is guarded. They carefully checked the token again, and then let Luo Qianhuai out.
Outside, there is still a valley, surrounded by high and steep cliffs, which can be seen from below, but the mountains are high and small, and they are difficult to overcome.
The system is heading due north. The mountain wall there is straight and smooth, and a round iron basket made of fine iron sits underneath. The diameter of the bottom of the iron basket is about two meters, and a thick rope is tied to it.
A huge winch stood aside, and several burly men were already drowsy with their backs against the winch, and jumped up when they heard footsteps:
"My lord, please board the gimbal immediately, and we will send you out."
The system jumped into the iron basket. The men pushed the winch hard, and the basket slowly rose with a creaking sound.
Everything went smoothly. Luo Qianhuai gradually put aside his previous worries and began to think about the better.
Mo Gongzi's return date is uncertain, and if he is lucky, he may stay outside for a few months. During this time, she can change to a small remote place and quietly open a small medical clinic.
I think that as long as you stay away from this Kangle County and try to keep a low profile, you shouldn't be noticed, so you must choose a good place to settle down in the future.
She came out for a long time this time, and she didn't know how Luo Zhao followed Zhang Qing, and whether she went back to find herself. On this trip, you have to go back first, maybe you can run into the two of them. If people haven't come back yet, leave a note so they don't worry about themselves.
When she thought of Zhang Qing again, she already had a little trust and closeness in her heart. As long as he is there, Mo Gongzi and they have to be a little jealous, unless they dispatch a large number of crossbow archers like in Dong Mansion, who can deal with Zhang Dajian Sect?
But when I think about it, I don't think it will come to this point. She is just a little woman, and she will not let the other party take out such a big battle to deal with it, it is meaningless and unnecessary.
When Luo Qianhuai thought of this, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. Yes, the iron basket has stopped at some point, but the position where it stopped is a little awkward: it happens to be halfway up the mountain, looking down, the figure is as small as an ant, but when you look up, it is still not high.
Did something go wrong? She looked down again, but there were many smaller figures than before, and there were more sparkling fires.
A bad premonition arose spontaneously from Luo Qianhuai's heart. And as if to confirm her guess, the iron basket shook a few times, and actually began to slide slowly.
The system didn't wait for Luo Qianhuai to exclaim, and jumped out. The ferret in her arms blinked her small black eyes as she moved lightly up the smooth cliff face.
The further up you go, the more fierce the mountain wind becomes. Luo Qianhuai has been in the valley for a long time, and has gradually become accustomed to the warm spring climate, almost forgetting that it is winter outside.
She was wearing a thin gauze skirt inside, and only a silk satin cloak outside, and her posture was graceful and beautiful, but the cold wind penetrated her bones, and the pain was almost like a knife, all falling on her perception.
With the fall of the iron basket, the people below had obviously discovered that there was no one inside, and without hesitation, they brought in a strong bow and crossbow, and shot it upward, and the sound of breaking the sky was sharp and poignant, and it was endless.
That undisguised hostility erased the last trace of luck in Luo Qianhuai's heart.
Obviously, her escape has been discovered.
It's just that no matter how strong the bow and crossbow are, there is also a range limit. Luo Qianhuai is now four or five hundred meters away from the ground, and he can clearly see those snow-bright arrows, which have changed from menacing to powerless to fall.
As soon as she put her mind at ease, she heard a piercing sound breaking through the air. Between the lightning and flint, I saw a long arrow shooting straight towards me with an indomitable momentum.
"System, be careful!" Luo Qianhuai exclaimed.
The system was much calmer than her, and with a slight use of her right foot on the stone wall, her body flipped 360 degrees in the air, and she grabbed the arrow with a copy of it, and then threw it down casually.
The figures below seemed to be in a bit of a commotion, but they were too far away for Luo Qianhuai to see clearly. She could only follow the system all the way up in fear, for fear that it would crash halfway - if she fell off the chain on such a cliff, her death would definitely be ugly.
Fortunately, the system is probably ashamed and brave today, and it persevered all the way to the end. When one hand was on the top of the cliff, Luo Qianhuai really put his heart at ease.
"System, I used to be a little harsh on you, but in fact, you are still very reliable when it is critical."
The system didn't answer, and with a force in his hand, he took Luo Qianhuai and turned over and stepped on the hard rock.
"Currently out of the game scene." The emotionless electronic sound started.
Luo Qianhuai: "??? ”
"System, can you send someone to your home, this wilderness is the third watch in the middle of the night, how can I go back?"
The system stood quietly on the edge of the cliff, his body was straight, he was not afraid of the cold wind of the sky, and his expression was even more indifferent, completely ignoring her meaning.
Probably because there is still one reward left before she can claim it, her body is still enforcing it at the moment, which makes Luo Qianhuai somewhat comforted.
Maybe the system isn't so unscrupulous and will send her to a populated place, right?
Luo Qianhuai prayed sincerely, hoping that the energy of the system could last for a while longer, and the pair of tired silk jewels were preferably ownerless, even if they were taken away by her, they would not cause trouble.
After that, she adjusted her perspective and looked around, consciously or unconsciously.
Next to it was a huge winch, and on the edge of the cliff was a semicircular piece of white marble, which should be facing the iron basket-shaped gimbal below.
When Luo Qianhuai saw this, his heart suddenly rose.
Since this is the exit from the valley, someone should be guarding it, but there is no figure on the side of the winch right now.
Either they were doing their job, or, as she had guessed, something worse was coming.
At that moment, footsteps rang out, breaking the silence under the cold moon. At first, it was just one or two people, but soon it became one.
The group slowly walked out of the cold-shirted forest on the side of the cliff, led by a jade-faced golden crown, dressed in a silver-gray fur coat, and the narrow phoenix eyes swept over her and the ferret in her arms, and the eyes were dark and complex. A pair of thin lips were tightly pursed, which seemed to contain a cold sneer, but they couldn't be distinguished when they looked closely.
Wei Cang and Wei Ying were originally two steps behind Mo Gongzi, but at this moment, they had already jumped forward, the guards were on his side, and the other guards were also holding the hilt of their swords, all with expressions as if they were facing a great enemy.
Luo Qianhuai's brain was blank: "System, didn't you predict the movements of Mo Gongzi and the others before you set off?" ”
"Whether they happen to bump into me, or they are waiting for me here, we are all stepping in at this moment, you have to find a way to save my life!"
"A strong desire to save the host's life has been detected. According to the needs of the host, we are making every effort to calculate the ...... in the shortcut."
