When the dawn was about to break, Mu Wei and the others returned to the cliff. More than a dozen people worked together to move the boulder away, and saw two left-behind subordinates kneeling upright in front of the cave.
"What happened to them?" As soon as Mu Hao saw this scene, he knew that something happened to several hostages, but what could happen to them? The way down the mountain was blocked, and the only way out of the cave was to reach the cliff, so they shouldn't be able to escape. So, is it sick? died?
"Master Mu, theythey jumped off the cliff!" The two kneeling people all looked ashamed, "It was the subordinate's carelessness that made them run to the edge of the cliff and jump off, please punish Master Mu."
"Jumping off a cliff?" After hearing the two of them tell the story, Mu Wei was also surprised. They actually jumped off a cliff? "Can I go down and investigate?"
"Never." The two of them alone couldn't move the boulder no matter what.
"Give you a chance to make up for your mistakes, and quickly lead six people around to the bottom of the cliff. If you live, you must see people, and if you die, you must see corpses." Mu Wei ordered, and his intuition told him that those four people would not die so easily, especially the special one. baby girl.
"Yes." Although the two were surprised by Mu Min's intentions, they quickly ordered six of them to go down the mountain.
"Master Mu, now that there are no hostages, what should we do with the emperor's deal?" Ku Zhu asked, frowning.
Mu Hao laughed when he heard the words, "Xiang Yingxuan didn't know we had no hostages."
At this time, Xiao Ranqing and his party had already walked out of the woods along the river. But as soon as it came out of the woods, the river divided into three paths along the terrain and flowed in different directions.
"Which way should we go now?" Xiang Yingzhuo had a headache, they only knew that they were in a forest. But there were at least a dozen mountains and hills around the hunting ground, and he really couldn't recognize which one it was, and naturally he didn't know the way out. It would be great if it was Qingtai Mountain. He often went to Qingtai Mountain to hunt, so he was most familiar with it.
However, Xiao Ranqing kept walking along the rightmost tributary, and Ying Jiean immediately followed after seeing this. Xiang Yingzhuo hesitated for a while and followed. He didn't know the way anyway, so he might as well try his luck and trust this girl again. Seeing that Ying Jie'an followed Xiao Ranqing without hesitation, Yong'an felt anxious. But seeing that the three of them had walked more than five feet away, she hurriedly dragged her sore legs and feet and ran a few steps to catch up.
Facts have proved that it is true to believe in Xiaoranqing. After walking for about half an hour, Xiang Yingzhuo was pleasantly surprised to find that the surrounding scenery gradually became familiar, "I have been to this place before, and after turning over this small slope, there is Qingtai Mountain in front of me!"
"There is a post station at the foot of Qingtai Mountain. It will be easy to borrow a few horses and return to Beijing." Ying Jiean was also delighted, as long as he turned over a small hill, he would be able to escape from danger.
With the hope of getting out of trouble, even Yong'an, who was staring at the stars, cheered up, and the speed of the four people suddenly accelerated a lot.
"Be careful!" Although the terrain of this hillside is gentle, the road is smooth. If you don't fall very much, it is easy to roll downhill. Xiaoranqing has been exhausted after struggling for a long time. Moreover, he caught a cold when he fell into the water, and was even more dizzy when he was blown by the night wind. She staggered as she walked, but luckily Ying Jiean supported her quickly, "Shall I carry you on my back? Or, rest for a while?"
"Hmph, she's the only one who has a lot to do!" Yong'an was dissatisfied, how many times she yelled that she was tired along the way, but they never stopped to wait for her, let alone carry her. But this stinky girl almost fell, so Ying Jiean offered to take a rest.
"Those assassins don't know if they have found our traces, so as not to cause any trouble, let's go on our way first. When we get to the station, it's not too late to take a good rest." Xiang Yingzhuo said, in fact, he himself was already extremely tired, but for a moment He couldn't feel at ease for a moment when he didn't reach the post station, so he had to hurry.
Xiao Ranqing nodded, she just wanted to go back home quickly. Missing for so long, her parents and brothers must be very anxious. "I'm fine, keep going."
Seeing that she insisted, Ying Jiean had no choice but to give up. But he kept his eyes on the little person in front of him all the time, for fear that she would fall down again.
With the bright light of Venus, a group of four slowly went uphill along the mountain road. After walking through a gentle slope ahead, the path became narrower and more difficult as they went up the mountain, so they walked very cautiously. From time to time, Xiao Ranqing pinched the palm of her hand with her nails to refresh herself from the pain. Along the way, the two pairs of white and tender palms were already bloody, but the refreshing effect became weaker and weaker. The dawn at the end of spring and the beginning of summer is still relatively cold, but Xiaoranqing is as hot as being in a stove. She knew that she had a fever, but the current situation could only hold on. Only when she arrived at the post station could she rest in peace. Sudden dizziness hit her head, Xiao Ranqing felt her eyes go dark, and her body fell to one side involuntarily. Ying Jie'an hurriedly stepped forward to help, but in a moment of panic, the dew-covered slate slipped under his feet, and there was no one to help him.He escaped by the current, so he asked. "Xiao Ranqing casually found a reason to prevaricate.
"Really?" This reason is too far-fetched, how can it fool the shrewd Ying Jiean. But she clearly didn't want to say it, and Ying Jie'an couldn't ask any more questions, but she still felt a little uncomfortable.
In fact, Xiao Ranqing had been to that cave early in the morning, and knew the existence of that cliff and the big river, because she was forced to jump over that cliff once in her previous life. However, she would never say anything about her past life, even if it was Ying Jiean who had saved her.
At that time, her two good emperor uncles somehow learned that she liked to go to Yutai Mountain, which is also known as Qingtai Mountain, for hunting in low clothes, so they carefully planned an assassination. Five hundred dead soldiers chased her for three whole hills, and finally, it was only with the desperate cover of the twenty loyal guards that she was allowed to hide in the cave. But in the end those dead men still found her whereabouts and forced her and the remaining three guards off the cliff. Fortunately, the big river is deep enough and has no reefs. And those three guards were all able to swim, which saved her life. After that, the two uncles were still uneasy, and sent people to investigate at the bottom of the cliff. It caused her to hide in this dangerous dense forest for half a month before she finally got the chance to escape back to the capital, so she was quite familiar with that area. However, after a thousand years, she is not sure whether the current situation is still the same as that time. Fortunately, it turns out that her luck is still good.
"What kind of poison is the powder in your purse?" After walking silently for a while, Ying Jiean broke the silence again.
"It's just anesthesia powder," she made it from datura flowers in her garden in her early spare time. "Then why do they sneeze?" Ying Jie was surprised, isn't that the effect of anesthesia powder?
"It's expired." She originally planned to use it to entertain the brothers of the Wang family, but she kept throwing it aside after it was useless. After changing into this hunting suit, because it is black, the color of the purse he usually wears does not quite match. I don't know where Mint found this, but since it was moon-white embroidered with silver, it was quite suitable, so I took it with me.
"" For the first time, Ying Jiean knew that the poison had been expired. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
