Chapter 1848 [Shangxie] Escape
The window was suddenly pushed open.

There was an abrupt creaking sound in the silent night, causing the two hidden guards who stayed behind to raise their heads instantly in astonishment, and the sword in their hands was also unsheathed half an inch like a conditioned reflex—but it was only half an inch, not even half an inch. Before he had time to draw the long sword longer, those dark eyes approached infinitely.

Then the internal force like a dragon's churning erupted silently in their chests, choking out that cry of wanting to report the news in their throats.

The two of them were about to fall into the cliff, but in the next moment they were firmly supported by a pair of slender hands on the branch, just like their posture when they were in charge of lurking, there was nothing unusual in the night.

Then the girl turned around, stepped on the branches and gently closed her window.

Then she jumped up to the top of the tree in a few steps and glanced at the distant fire.

There was nothing left after the fire light passed here, so her expression was buried in the heavy shadows and she couldn't see clearly, only a pair of eyes reflected a dense red in the distance, and there was an indescribable darkness in the silence mood.

After a while, she calmly withdrew her gaze, took one last look at this quiet Fuyi Pavilion, then lowered her head, and fell into the boundless cliff.

Just like that rainy night many years ago, she also jumped out of the window of Fuyi Pavilion like this, and braved the rain to break through countless death hurdles on this steep cliff, before finally arriving at the place she wanted to go, to kill people.

But this time was different from last time, she was trying to escape.

From this place that was once considered her home, but later became a cage of indifference, she escaped to the freedom she wanted, to the side of the person she... wanted to see.

The howling night wind rolled up the corner of the girl's clothes, and she silently touched the piece of amber in her sleeve while jumping.

That stone has already been rubbed so warmly by her, just like that person, at first glance, it has a gentle and alienated background, which makes people can't help being attracted, but also can't help feeling afraid to approach.

But Xia Fuyi has always been a person who does her own way, the more she feels unapproachable, the more she wants to get closer and understand.

The more contradictory she is, the more attracted she is.

The shadow of the moonlight brushed by the white clothes kept staying in the veins of the leaves, and then kept falling deeper, and soon disappeared.

And inside the Tianji Gate, outside the Linglong Pavilion where the flames lingered, the woman wearing a veil turned her head and looked in the direction of the Fuyi Pavilion from a distance, and a complex and tangled look flashed in her exposed eyes, but at this moment His entanglement was quickly attracted by the news of fire fighting.

The Fuyi Pavilion over there was still silent in the dark night, completely silent, nothing unusual.

·
The fire was finally blocked outside the Jiange.

Only the Linglong Pavilion where Xue Yanshu lived was burned down.

After the fire was extinguished, the group of hidden guards who went to help hurried back to Fuyi Pavilion. The two remaining hidden guards outside the corridor were still leaning against the branches without a sound, and there was no movement in Fuyi Pavilion. , everything is the same as before they left.

The leader secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to lurk in the dark night.

The long dark night passed, until dawn broke, and the first ray of dawn faintly crossed the treetops outside Fuyi Pavilion. Someone turned his head inadvertently, and what he saw made his eyes widen suddenly.

"Aliu!"

This scream made all the hidden guards turn around, and saw that the two hidden guards who were left behind last night, who they thought were normal, were leaning against the tree trunk with their eyes closed, and seemed to have been unconscious for a long time.

Someone immediately jumped down from the tree and pushed open the window regardless.

The mountain wind at dawn blew into the room, and the gauze curtains hanging beside the bed were rolled up layer by layer, revealing the empty bed.
