Chapter 240
Xu Jiatong's heart hung in his throat, if the two hadn't gone far, and saw that the maid was still alive, he would also think that they were still alive.At this time, they were all injured, and they didn't know martial arts. If they were caught, they could only be slaughtered like meat on a chopping board.

Everyone in the water choked on the water, Zhao Ma's body was already floating upwards, and she grabbed a handful of withered water plants with one hand.That strand of aquatic plants broke a lot in an instant, and I don't know how long it can last.

There was no movement on the water, Xu Jiatong's mind was wandering, besides the sound of water, other sounds gradually began to appear in his ears.It was vague, and I couldn't hear what it was.

Bi Shui had just taken a breath, and she could hold on for a while longer, but she knew that Xu Jiatong couldn't wait any longer, so she stroked the water vigorously and floated up.

There was no one on the ground beside the pond, even the body of the servant who died unexpectedly.She swam a couple of times, and under the cover of a section of driftwood, she leaned forward and looked again, sank again, and gestured towards them in the water, gesturing on the surface of the water.

At this time, even if the movement above is still uncertain, the people below can't hold their breath and can only float up.The moment it surfaced, it was like a new life, and even the breath full of decaying dead leaves became unusually fresh and pleasant.

Wugan gradually recovered, and Xu Jiatong took a deep breath, wondering if she had been soaking in the water for a long time, her vision was still blurred, the dead branches and leaves in front of her, and the hills in the distance were all mixed together, and the outlines could not be distinguished.

The man in black did leave, at least temporarily, and the five swam to the shore, squatting or resting under the nearest tree.Ah Xiang was in relatively good health, and could still walk a slant at this time. She went straight to the place where the carriage was parked just now, trying to pick up the clothes and food from the carriage.

"Don't go, first go to the village over there to settle down." Xu Jiatong pointed in the direction of those houses.

She didn't know if it was a village or if there were still people living there, but she had seen it before going into the water, at least there were many houses there, even if it was a deserted village, there were many houses, so she could always hide.

"Go, hurry up, help the fourth girl." Bi Shui also calmed down, and asked Ah Xiang to help Xu Jiatong with her, and Zhao Ma supported the injured servant girl.

After walking for half a distance, there was a sound of horseshoes on the road beyond the pond. They hid behind the rocks and saw a man riding a horse looking around their carriage from a distance.

"I can't see clearly, look at that person's attire." Xu Jiatong still had flowers in front of his eyes, so he could only ask them a few.

Bi Shui said: "Looks like a servant, but he must not be a servant of ordinary people. He is well-dressed. The servant looks at him as if he is here to explore the way, and he went back just now."

Xu Jiatong had already heard the sound of horseshoes, and signaled them to stop for a while, and as she expected, after a while, two more people and two horses arrived in front of the carriage with the previous person.

"Sure enough, there are bandits coming and going, and I don't know if these people are still alive." A person behind the horse said, the horse circled the carriage twice, and the sound of the horse's hooves kicking came over.

"These bandits dare to come and go around the western capital. They are so courageous. I'm afraid they'll fight. Let's go back quickly. The prince is still behind. If these bandits go there and disturb the prince, we can eat it." I can't blame you." Another person said.

"If you want to die, you should die clean. Let's go." The man earlier turned the horse's head, and there was a sound of hooves, and the two must have followed.

"This...fourth girl, should we run over and ask them to rescue me just now?" Ah Xiang asked in a daze.

"It may not be too late, not to mention that these royals and nobles are always suspicious. They know that there are bandits in the vicinity, and if we run out suddenly, they may regard us as bandits and think that we are deliberately approaching them by means of cruelty. Then what if Killing us all indiscriminately will only make things worse." Xu Jiatong's voice was weak, and as soon as he finished speaking, he closed his eyes and rested his mind.

"Then what should we do, the people in the mansion think we went to Juexiao Temple, and I'm afraid they won't find out what happened here so soon." Ah Xiang said worriedly.

This innocent disaster was probably arranged by Lin, Xu Jiatong didn't expect anyone from the mansion to rescue them at all.

But Xu Jiatong couldn't tell them these words, Bi Shui and Ah Xiang knew everything, and she completely trusted them.

But Mama Zhao and the injured servant girl whose surname and name can't be told are not sure, in case it was arranged by Mrs. Lin, wait for the opportunity by their side.When she said it now, it was tantamount to telling that person that she had seen through the conspiracy, and the time of death would only come sooner.

Xu Jiatong glanced at the nearby village, and said weakly: "Go and settle down first, and wait for the people from the mansion to find you."

"Why don't the servants slip back to the city and ask the master and madam to make the decision and send someone over quickly?" Mama Zhao glanced at the injured servant who was breathing heavily, her feet moved, and she wanted to stand up.

Xu Jiatong glanced at Zhao Ma, with a warning in his eyes: "Don't go, those two masked men may still be around, once you go out, you will attract them, we have to confess here."

"Mom Zhao, you've been tossing around for a long time, take a rest for a while, drink some water, and then talk about going back." Bi Shui thought that Mama Zhao didn't abandon her master at a critical moment, so she had to remind her.

Zhao Ma nodded and sneered, "It's because this servant is not thoughtful enough, and this servant went ahead to explore the way."

"Ah Xiang, you follow." Xu Jiatong ordered, looking at Ah Xiang, "be careful."

The two went ahead to explore the way, and Bi Shui took a handful of water from the stream in the grass to wash Xu Jiatong's face, looked at her nervously, and saw that except for the injury on her leg, the rest of her skin was only scratched, so she couldn't help but relax. Take a breath.

"Let's settle down in the front, but the people in the mansion don't know, what if they come and don't see anyone, and just go back like that?" Bi Shui said worriedly.

"Let's talk about it after we settle down. This is not the only way out here. Let's avoid those masked people first. Master Dai will definitely send someone to look for me when he sees that I am overdue." Xu Jiatong was very panicked at this moment, but When he thought of Dai Yuanguan, he would calm down a lot.

"Master Dai will come?" Bi Shui didn't quite believe it. After a moment of silence, he looked at Xu Jiatong, "Master Dai has been protecting you, but I don't know how long he can protect you. Girl, this place is worse than the old house in Kunshan , we are single and weak, and we don't know if we can last until you become a female official."

"Pass this one first." Xu Jiatong couldn't think too much. In the future, these two words were still too far away for her.

"Miss Si, there is a Zhuangzi in front. No one has lived in it for a long time, and there is dirt everywhere." Ah Xiang came back to report.
