The male protagonist is blackening: Raiders, please be careful

Chapter 109 The Empire and the Rose (25)
The night in Taidmur is eerily quiet... it takes one's breath away.

Assyrian Prince Tigrat Palasar was not blind, he knew when he saw the empty bed——that Bai Feifei whom he indulged in every possible way had once again "disobeyed" him.

Maybe... it wasn't Bai Feifei, but if it was someone else, as long as the guards brought her back, and then killed or cut her up as she pleased—anyway, it wasn't the first time to punish such a disobedient "slave"...

But this time, an unknown fire ignited from the bottom of his heart──that was an emotion very unfamiliar to Shar.

Before he had time to think about it, the man grabbed his own bow and arrow hanging on the palace wall, and ran straight outside the hall without even summoning his attendants—
Sure enough—seeing a slender shadow, flickering at the end of the dark brick corridor—
Without hesitation, he fully drew his bow... Shal aimed at that shadow──
How crazy!

Bai Feifei's heartbeat was beating like a drum, and his mind was in a turmoil──
Just now—that is, when the man’s attention was diverted for a while, she suddenly had the idea of ​​running away—that thought that was like a maddened, irresistible thought—
Knowing that no matter how much you try to escape, you won't be able to escape very far... And once you are caught, the consequences will be unimaginable!

But as soon as his feet touched the cold ground, all worries were forgotten──
Flee...flee...Wherever you flee, the LORD will protect you...

Thinking of Easterly's blessing again──
Bai Feifei is not a Christian, but at that moment she really hoped that God existed.

She slipped out of the bed... Barefoot, she shrank into the darkness with no clothes on, and ran from the other side of the wide open temple door to the unattainable "freedom"...

Suddenly, I felt a wind moving behind me—a strong wind...

In just a split second, before he had time to turn his head, his waist was embraced by a healthy arm, and his lips were blocked by a hand belonging to someone else while exclaiming—
His body soared into the air, as if he was about to take off against the wind... Bai Feifei's mind was clear all over again—even when he fell, he saw the man with a bow—he stared at him with a gloomy expression...Is that an angry expression? ?
Seeing his expression, there is a kind of joy spontaneously...

I almost forgot that I was hugged by someone... From that towering place, I fell together──
Taidemur is not a big city, but for thousands of years, its tall stone pillars, magnificent arches and exquisite carvings have always been the treasures of human civilization.Not only these, but the exquisite water supply system in the city is also breathtaking.The water diversion pipeline is composed of hollow stone pillars. Each section is thick at one end and thinner at the other. After being connected, the seams are tightly connected to attract clear springs from the desert.

"Afka" spring - called the source of life by the Taidemu'er people, because she is the "mother" that feeds this oasis city.

And this time, this "source of life" really saved the lives of two people──
The night has not yet passed, and the city that seemed to be buried in a coffin is gradually becoming agitated──
Bai Feifei knew that it was the Assyrians who liked to kill all the fugitives and were searching for the whereabouts of the fugitives. She did not lose consciousness this time, and for now, she was quite lucid.

The night was cold and heavy.

Bai Feifei had just been dragged out of the cold spring water, and his robe was wet and stuck to his body...and his feet were bare...

The wind in the desert carries fine grains of sand, and it’s not a joke to hit people—
What's more, Bai Feifei's upper body is almost naked... Her lips have turned purple from the cold...

I really don’t know if this counts as the protection of “God”──Is it a fluke that I fell off such a high platform and was safe?
There is no need to stop, in fact, there is no way to stop.

While being dragged and running, Bai Feifei raised his eyes curiously to look at the man who was holding his left wrist tightly──
He didn't say a word, neither did Bai Feifei.

I can only see the outline of his tall back... and feel the sticky touch in the palm of my hand...

Bai Feifei knew—it was blood.

On the high platform, he pulled himself to escape the fatal arrow, but his arm was injured...

"who is he?Is it also a runaway "slave"?

...these are not important.

What matters is that he saved her and they're still alive.
