After being tortured to death, Hou Men’s legitimate daughter returns and goes crazy killing her

Chapter 31
Gu Qingyuan gritted her teeth. The footsteps behind her got closer and closer, so she climbed onto his back without hesitation and said softly: "Thank you."

In this way, Pei Qingci was hiding from place to place with Gu Qingyuan on his back, and his physical strength was gradually exhausted.

As night falls, the paths in the suburban mountains and forests are deserted. The crescent moon hangs high in the sky, and crows pass through the shadows of the chaotic trees and land on the dry branches.

The night wind was slightly cold, and Gu Qingyuan used her sleeves to wipe away the sweat dripping from his forehead: "Why don't you just let me down."

If it weren't for Pei Qingci, who was a burden like her, he would have escaped long ago.

Pei Qingci didn't reply, just carried her forward without saying a word, entered the village, and finally stopped in front of a farmer's house.

Pei Qingci knocked on the door but did not break in directly. Not long after, an old man with a white beard and a hunchback came out. He looked quite old.

The old man looked at them for a few times and asked defensively: "Who are you?"

Pei Qingci glanced at Gu Qingyuan behind him and said, "Uncle, we are separated from our family. My sister has injured her foot. Can I rest here?"

The old man wanted to refuse, but he looked at the embarrassed two people and hesitated for a moment before getting out of the way: "Come in."

"Thank you, old man."

After entering the house, Pei Qingci placed Gu Qingyuan on the stool, lifted up her skirt and checked the injury of her foot.

Gu Qingyuan was a little uncomfortable. Pei Qingci saw this and patted her feet, saying in a deep voice: "Don't move."

"Oh." Since he couldn't struggle, he simply let him check.

Gu Qingyuan's ankle was swollen, and there was a small tooth mark on it, which must have been bitten by the snake just now. The wound was vaguely black, and the snake was poisonous.

Pei Qingci's eyes darkened. He couldn't go out hastily in this situation.

The old man who had been observing seemed to see his difficulty: "I think the injury on this girl's foot was bitten by a snake."

Pei Qingci nodded calmly.

The old man went into the back room and came out with a jar and some green plants. Then he threw the plants into the jar, mashed them and placed them in front of them.

"This is a folk medicine we have here. It can be used to suppress snake venom. It would be better for the girl to apply it on her ankles earlier."

"Treating the symptoms but not the root cause, you still need to find a doctor as soon as possible tomorrow."

Pei Qingci took it and was silent for a moment before wiping it on Gu Qingyuan's feet and saying thank you with a sullen face.

In fact, he wasn't sure whether the medicine would work or not, and he didn't know if something else was added to it. At the moment, they could only treat a dead horse as a living horse, and they had no choice.

The old man helped them find a room, but due to limited space, the two of them had to stay in one room.

Gu Qingyuan leaned on the bedside, watching Pei Qingci tuck the quilt for her, curling his fingers slightly unnaturally.

"Go to sleep." He sat on the stool and closed his eyes to relax.

……

On the hunting ground, Ms. Xie was so anxious that she almost cried, watching helplessly as the time got later and later but no one came back.

The hunting people had returned one after another, but Pei Qingci and Gu Qingyuan were still nowhere to be seen. Seeing the sky gradually getting darker, Mr. Xie couldn't sit still at all.

"Auntie, please don't worry. Sister Gu will be fine with Mr. Pei by her side." Chi Yinan stepped forward to comfort the anxious Mrs. Xie, but an ominous premonition rose in her heart for no reason.

Calling his confidants: "You should also follow the emperor's people to find out. If anything happens, come back and report it as soon as possible."

"Yes!"

"Don't worry, aunt, the emperor has already sent people to look for her."

Fu Huaian and others were the last to come back. They looked at the guards who hurriedly entered the woods with their swords in hand, and then looked at Xie who was wiping her tears and being comforted by Chi Yinan, with confusion in their eyes.He stopped the young master who was passing by and asked, "What happened?"

The young master said with a hint of schadenfreude: "Oh, I heard that Miss Gu and Little Marquis Pei have not returned home for a long time and have lost contact."

Fu Huaian frowned and stared into the distance with a heavy gaze. He took a deep breath in silence for a moment, picked up the bow and arrow he had put down again, and started to walk into the forest.

"Your Majesty." A soft voice sounded from behind, causing him to stop moving forward.

"Yue'er, what's the matter?"

Gu Liangyue's eye circles were red, and her long eyelashes trembled: "It's nothing, it's just that I haven't seen the prince for a long time."

Fu Huaian's frown never relaxed, and his eyes fell on Gu Liangyue. She was not wearing riding clothes, but a white dress, which made her look more harmless and tender, especially her slender neck. .

"Don't cry, I've been a little busy these days..." Fu Huaian sighed softly and wiped away her rolling tears with a smile.

What Fu Huaian hated the most was that Gu Liangyue's tears would arouse the compassion in his heart.

Gu Liangyue was overjoyed when she heard the news about Fu Huaian's recovery reported by the system, and then she suddenly threw herself into his arms.

"Your Majesty, I am so scared and worried about my sister. It is so late and there is no news about my sister."

Gu Liangyue choked with sobs, tears soaking the clothes on his chest, as if she was really worried about Gu Qingyuan.

Fu Huaian subconsciously wanted to push her away. The location they were in was not hidden, and several people cast playful glances at him, but Gu Liangyue's next words completely pierced his heart.

"Although my sister has Mr. Pei Xiaohou by her side, she is a man after all... This one is alone..."

Fu Huaian raised his hand and lowered it again, his eyes flashing with undisguised murderous intent.

Gu Liangyue withdrew from his embrace and looked up at him with tears in her eyes: "Your Majesty, can you stay with me? Yue'er is really scared." As she said this, she was about to shed tears again.

"Okay." Hua Luo put his arm around Gu Liangyue's shoulders and entered the tent.

But she didn't want this scene to fall in the eyes of Chi Lianxue, who had just wanted to come to Fu Huaian. It was only at this moment that she really realized that she was being used by Gu Liangyue.

His thoughts were confused, his throat tightened even more when he thought of what he had done, and a chill crawled up his limbs.

Ling Su had been vigilantly checking his surroundings after Pei Qingci entered the woods.

A man who looked like a little guard stepped forward and approached Ling Su and said, "Boss, there is something wrong in the woods ahead."

"I got it." Ling Su still had that paralyzed face, whistled and then entered the forest. He saw birds flying in front of him, the branches were faintly restless, and he felt bad in his heart.

Then he hurried to a high place and saw a white dove flying deep in the forest. The secret guard who had just been brought to the forest by Ling Su's whistle obviously also saw it.

Several people looked at each other and flew towards the depths.

At the same time, the man in black who was chasing Pei Qingci watched helplessly as he slipped away under his nose. He was very angry and said angrily: "I will catch Pei Qingci today even if I have to dig three feet into the ground!"

"What about the woman beside him, Gu Qingyuan?"

The man in black with a scar on his eye smiled sinisterly: "Just kill him."

"Yes." Following the order, the men in black began to search separately.

The leader lowered his head and looked at the footprints on the ground, then stood up. Further ahead was the village. His eyes were full of determination and viciousness: "This is it, come on!"

At this moment, dozens of figures emerged from the darkness and attacked them like ghosts. Scarface was shocked and realized that he had been tricked.
