The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 243 Suffering
"Stop talking nonsense, take your life!" The thief on the side didn't bother to listen to Li Xian's nonsense, so he raised his knife and slashed straight at Li Xian.

How could a gentleman like Li Xian have seen such a dangerous scene before, when he saw the knife blade that was shining coldly and dripping with blood slashing at him, he was so frightened that his legs went limp.

At the moment when the machete was about to approach Li Xian's face, Li Xian closed his eyes in despair, thinking that my life was over, when he heard a "bang", it turned out that the thief fell down.

It was Xu Wanning who drove her out.

Xu Wanning was full of murderous intent. She held a candlestick in one hand, glanced at the thief who was knocked unconscious by her, stared at Li Xian and said, "What's the point with these people?"

Although Xu Wanning is a girl, but at the moment she is full of evil spirits, the innate terrifying aura of the general door tiger girl, but it scares the criminal who has done all kinds of crimes and can't help but take two steps back.

Xu Wanning glanced at the dozens of water bandits with fleshy faces in front of her, and didn't talk nonsense with those thieves. She snatched the long sword from Li Xian's hand, and without waiting for the thieves to react, she swept it neatly.

As the sword light flashed, the two thieves spattered blood on the spot.

Even these Jiangyang thieves who live their lives licking blood with knives, have never seen a woman like Xu Wanning.

All this happened between the sparks of calcium carbide, the group of thieves glanced at the three felled accomplices, and then realized that they ran towards Xu Wanning, shouting one by one.

Although Xu Wanning is good at martial arts, but she is a noble girl, but she has never competed with others with real swords and guns. At this moment, facing these vicious gangsters, although she is also frightened, her swordsmanship is not chaotic. It is a murderous direct hit.

"Hurry up and protect Madam! Protect Madam!" Li Xian narrowly saved his life from the gangster's knife. He was so frightened that his legs went limp at first, but seeing his wife fighting with the gangster, he calmed down tenaciously again, carrying a The candlestick didn't know where to start to help, so he anxiously yelled at the guards who had been beaten to the ground.

The servants and guards on the boat who had been beaten to pieces by the gangsters saw Xu Wanning's courage, and one by one, their morale was revived, and they got involved in the fight with all their might.

On the boat, the sounds of fighting that had already been languishing broke out again.

Although Xu Wanning is a general's tiger girl, her skills are deeply taught by the old general Xu, and her moves are naturally much more formal than those desperadoes' water bandits, but she is a girl after all, and she can't match men's strength no matter what. Coupled with the fact that there were so many gangsters, after fighting for a while, her physical strength gradually became exhausted.

Li Xian, who was at the side, saw that his wife was at a disadvantage, he turned around in a hurry, and shouted desperately: "Hurry up and protect Madam! Hurry up and protect Madam."

When Li Xian was yelling helplessly on the deck, a gangster came towards his back door with a machete. Seeing the situation, Xu Wanning quickly cloned herself to Li Xian's side to protect him, and shouted: " Go and hide in the barn, don't make trouble here."

Li Xian picked up a fallen sword from the ground and gestured, "Even if we die, we will die together. How can I leave you behind?"

Xu Wanning entangled with the gangsters who came up, and replied angrily: "If you don't make trouble here, maybe I can live a little longer."

Just as he was talking, the bandit headed by clamored and raised the short blade, and took advantage of Xu Wanning's distraction to fly towards her. The blade with the cold light was about to pierce the vital point of Xu Wanning's throat, just at this critical moment , Li Xian almost instinctively protected his wife.

Hearing Li Xian's muffled snort, the short blade pierced straight into his chest.

Before Xu Wanning could cry out in alarm, the bandit pulled out his short blade neatly and rushed towards Xu Wanning again, but Li Xian endured the severe pain, turned around and rushed to the bandit, fighting with him desperately, seeing the bandit The short blade in his hand was about to stab him again, Li Xian used all his strength to hold the gangster and fell off the deck with him and fell into the rolling water.

"Husband!" Xu Wanning's eyes and teeth were shattered, and she roared and ran towards the bow.

The water was rolling, but Li Xian could no longer be seen.

Seeing that the eldest brother was knocked into the water, the gangsters lost their momentum, but they still refused to let everyone on the boat go.

Just when the people on the boat were about to be unable to resist, the people from Jiangdong arrived in time, and the soldiers wiped out all the water bandits in an instant.

The person who came to meet him was Murong Xuan, the third son of King Murong.

It turned out that Murong Xuan rushed to meet Li Xian and his wife at the wharf on the bank of the Huaiyin Canal, which was not very peaceful yesterday. Because he heard that water bandits in Huaiyin area often crossed the border to commit crimes, Murong Xuan was worried, so he took a boat to meet them on the water. But they never thought that Li Xian and his wife really met the gangsters.

When Xu Wanning saw Murong Xuan, she didn't have time to say anything, she just said anxiously: "My uncle was knocked into the water by the thief, please order someone to save him."

When Murong Xuan heard that Li Xian was in danger, his face turned pale with fright, and he quickly ordered people to go down to rescue him.

The soldiers who were familiar with water skills jumped down to save people one after another after hearing the order. Xu Wanning lay on the side of the boat, looking worriedly at the surface of the water, her heart fluttered, she had never felt so uneasy.

Murong Xuan comforted Xu Wanning and said, "Cousin sister-in-law, don't worry, cousin can also swim, so there shouldn't be any danger."

Xu Wanning also knew that Li Xian knew how to swim, but he was stabbed by the bandits and fell, and now the river is so cold.

Xu Wanning cried out in anxiety.

But now, there is no other way but to wait.

As time passed, the soldiers successively salvaged the guards who had been knocked into the water by the bandits, but Li Xian was nowhere to be seen.

Murong Xuan looked anxiously at the salvaged people one by one, his expression became more and more ugly.

When Xu Wanning didn't see Li Xian, she knew something was wrong in her heart. The current was so fast, and Li Xian was seriously injured. He just fell into the water and was washed away by the river.

After being extremely panicked, Xu Wanning quickly calmed down. Standing on the bow of the boat, she stared at the rolling deep river, and a decisive thought came to her heart.

If Li Xian died here, she would jump down to accompany him.

Li Xian hurt her so deeply, Xu Wanning's love for him had long since disappeared with the sadness and sorrow.But Li Xian fell into this icy water to protect her. Thinking of Li Xian's determination to perish with the gangsters in order to protect her, Xu Wanning's heart was full of twists and turns.

When Li Xianyao reconciled with her back then, although she was desperate, she cared about her children, her natal family, and her own future.
There are still many things she can't let go of.

Now that Li Xian really left her, those things she couldn't let go of all the time seemed to be unimportant.

Her only thought was to go with him.
