Lady Zhao

Chapter 86

The two stood on an arched bridge, which was relatively quiet compared to the neighborhood of the Lantern Festival. Looking at the crowded Lantern Festival, Zhao Wenwan suddenly felt that Gu Jingxing's body froze. She turned her head slightly and saw that his expression was still as usual. His eyes sank, he suddenly and boldly embraced Zhao Wenwan's shoulders, and then walked down the bridge with her in his arms without any explanation. His steps were very fast, and Zhao Wenwan followed his steps as he walked quickly, and a feeling rose in his heart. Foreboding.

"What happened?" she asked in a low voice.

Gu Jingxing didn't explain, but said: "Wanwan, don't look back, after a while you get off the bridge and run eastward, if you don't get into the crowd of lantern parades, Zuo Ling will protect you."

This is not the best place to attack, as long as they are not discovered, they will not act rashly.

Zhao Wenwan had a delicate mind, and she realized it all at once, her breathing became slightly heavier, and she responded calmly, "Okay." She doesn't know martial arts, and if she stays here, it will hinder Jingxing, but before the two of them get off the bridge, they can hear the sound behind them. A child's soft and waxy voice sounded, "Mother, mother, you see that the person in front is so strange, why are there three small flower knives in the back of his hand?"

Then came Zuo Ling's panicked shout from behind: "My lord, be careful!"

Gu Jingxing let out a low curse, hugged Zhao Wenwan with quick eyes and rolled him to the ground, the dust swayed on the two of them, and there were a few quick "swish swish swish", three darts and hidden arrows were all nailed to the tree trunk, Gu Jingxing did not die today Without a sword, he stretched out his hand and jumped up nimbly, ran to the tree trunk and pulled out a dart. With a slender arm, he threw it hard, and the man fell down.

There were not many people by the bridge, three or four groups of people saw the dead, and fled in all directions screaming in panic. Dozens of hidden plainclothes killers saw that the leak had been leaked, regardless of whether this was a good place to strike, they flocked one after another. up.Zuo Ling fought and was entangled by several people after a while.

Gu Jingxing took advantage of this to pull Zhao Wenwan and ran away, and suddenly saw a carriage approaching, he squinted his eyes and kicked the coachman, the two had a perfect understanding, Zhao Wenwan quickly got into the carriage with his skirt lifted, and Gu Jingxing sat in the driving seat Hurrying to go out of the city, I don't need to think about it. They set up an ambush in advance, and the rest of the road may be blocked.

In the carriage were two young mother and daughter, huddled together and terrified when they saw Zhao Wenwan coming in.

"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." Only then did Zhao Wenwan feel pain in his arm, and when he lifted up his sleeve, he saw that there was a new scar on the place where the temple was scratched last time, and blood was dripping out. He just frowned, and simply wrapped it up with a veil.

The mother and daughter flinched even more. Zhao Wenwan didn't care about the two of them any more. He sat down and tried to calm down his mood like a thunderous drum. He slightly lifted the corner of the curtain and looked behind.After leaving the city, the night became more and more intense, and the trails on both sides with dead trees and remnants quickly passed by.

The horse rumbled suddenly, and the wheels stopped immediately. Gu Jingxing lifted the curtain of the car, and threw a jade pendant to the mother and daughter, "You two, hide for a while, and see a guard coming to take my jade pendant and ask them to escort you The two entered the city."

Hearing this, Zhao Wenwan understood what Gu Jingxing was thinking, and jumped out of the carriage without any hesitation, not seeing the noble girl's coddling air at all, Gu Jingxing's ears pressed to the ground, there was a slight vibration, and his expression became darker, "Wanwan, this way."

He led Zhao Wenwan into a secret forest, surrounded by pitch-black darkness, only the sound of dry branches under their feet, Zhao Wenwan asked in a low voice, "Have they caught up?"

"It will be soon, are you afraid?"

Zhao Wenwan pursed her lips and nodded slightly.

I heard an apologetic sigh coming from my ear, "I'm the one who got you in trouble."

Zhao Wenwan didn't complain about Gu Jingxing, but only looked at his calm side face. The little moonlight reflected the coldness in his eyes, and instead caused quite a stir in his heart. This person has been accompanied by such large and small assassinations for many years. How did you survive.

Gu Jingxing and Zhao Wenwan listened carefully to the sound of rushing footsteps as the wind blew past them.

"Before the imperial army arrives, we must find it and kill it."

"Yes."

Hearing the footsteps getting closer, Gu Jingxing protected Zhao Wenwan and hid beside a dead tree. Zhao Wenwan was assassinated for the second time. That time he was terrified, but today he felt surprisingly at ease, being hugged tightly by the people beside him Here, hold your breath and wait quietly.

Obviously this time the main envoy made up his mind to get rid of Gu Jingxing. More and more people were searching for them. A wave of people came towards the two of them holding flickering torches. Gu Jingxing's dark and deep eyes glowed. , flashed a few unknown feelings, and then stretched out his hand to cover her eyes.

"Wanwan, don't be afraid, their target is me, I will come back to pick you up after I lure them away."

Zhao Wenwan only felt a touch of warmth on his forehead, which brought out a touch of tenderness, and the moment his generous palm was pulled away, he couldn't help reaching out to keep him, but the man had already jumped out.Afraid of dragging Gu Jingxing down, Zhao Wenwan could only cover her mouth and hide behind the tree. She glanced away, but it already made her break out in a cold sweat.
Several burly men rushed towards Gu Jingxing with sharp knives in their hands.He knocked down the two of them in a moment, but the rest of them did not give up and chased after them like a group of dead soldiers.

Gu Jingxing fought with them with bare hands for a while, but soon there was no movement. Zhao Wenwan shivered with her knees curled up, and there seemed to be a bloody smell lingering from the tip of her nose, which made her suffocate in her chest.

The feeling of dizziness came, and Zhao Wenwan's head was buzzing, thinking of her attitude towards Gu Jingxing when she came here through time travel... This farewell, I'm afraid there will be more bad luck, she keeps telling herself that Gu Jingxing in the script has been living a good life Yes, how could the protagonist die so easily, but I couldn't help but feel a chill in my heart, thinking carefully that her appearance has changed the trajectory of many things, and Gu Jingxing's ending...

Just thinking of that possibility made Zhao Wenwan's heart ache, and he didn't dare to think about it any more. The dark clouds covered the white and miserable crescent moon, and he was caged in the darkness. I don't know how long it had passed, and his hands and feet became colder and colder.

Speaking of which, I was implicated by him, but without myself, Gu Jingxing might be able to escape more easily. After all, who is implicating whom, Zhao Wenwan's heart is more inclined to the latter, and he doesn't want Gu Jingxing to have an accident because of himself.

"If you come back, let the past be the past. I believe you won't kill me again." For some reason, Zhao Wenwan thought of her own ending in the script. At this moment, it seemed that it was someone else's, and she murmured almost Prayed, "Come back, I will give you a chance."

Not long after the words fell, a weak voice suddenly sounded in the forest, "Wan Wan."

Zhao Wenwan suddenly raised his eyes, followed the voice, and vaguely saw a tall figure stumbling in the darkness, walking with one foot deep and one foot shallow, as if struggling.With a shock in his heart, he rushed out and hugged the visitor without even thinking about it, his heart was full of fear, fearing that this person would never come back.

There seemed to be sticky liquid on the place where she touched her hand. She raised her hand and saw that half of her palm was dripping with blood. In the moonlight, I could only see that the black robe was already covered with deep and light mottled blood, and even the brows seemed to be stained with blood.

"My lord..." Zhao Wenwan wanted to help him cover his wound in a panic, but Gu Jingxing tried his best to move the corner of his mouth, revealing a relieved smile, his face was as pale as the white snow on the distant mountain, no longer cold, but genuinely innocent. Bloodless.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine." With you here, I won't allow myself to be fine.Gu Jingxing didn't say the second half of the sentence, but only stared deeply at him. "Don't cry...you look good when you cough when you smile."

A thin layer of mist quickly appeared in Zhao Wenwan's eyes covered by half-drawn eyelashes, and the corners of his lips curled up, but his smile was uglier than crying.This person was like this, but he still pretended to be okay to comfort himself, the rushing blood seemed to be unstoppable, Zhao Wenwan took off his cloak and pressed down one place, feeling anxious to death.

However, he was too nervous, the pressing technique was no longer serious, and more blood flowed out instead, Gu Jingxing snorted slightly in pain, and Zhao Wenwan apologized repeatedly with a choked voice at a loss.

Gu Jingxing opened his eyes and saw the woman in front of him with disheveled hair and pale face, with confusion and worry in his eyes, he comforted him, "Don't panic, my people will be here soon, everything will be fine, everything will pass... "

Although the voice was weak, it said it over and over again, which really calmed Zhao Wenwan's panic. After calming down, he thought of the hemostatic bandaging method he had learned in this world, and laboriously tore a few strips from his cotton skirt as cloth strips for him. Gu Jingxing bandaged the wounds, and the bleeding slowly stopped in several severely injured places.

"...Wanwan, I'm sorry to trouble you."

Zhao Wenwan just breathed a sigh of relief, but his back was covered in cold sweat, but when he heard what he said, he raised his head suddenly, only to find that his head was tilted to the side. I don't know if he was unconscious or...

"My lord, Gu Jingxing? Gu Jingxing!" Zhao Wenwan was so frightened that he didn't dare to move around his broken body, and cried out loudly. "Wake up, don't sleep!"

Zhao Wenwan babbled a lot, from the emperor to Yongping, counting those who cared about him, hoping that people would wake up, but unfortunately there was no response. As the temperature dropped at night, Zhao Wenwan only felt the chill running through his limbs, and he was about to freeze himself She was stiff, but she was even more afraid that Gu Jingxing would not be able to support the rescue.

Finally, he gritted his teeth, opened his red eyes and said harshly, "Didn't you ask me if I dare to accompany you? If I say yes, do you dare to live a long life!"

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the forest is quiet, only the echo echoes slightly, and it is a bit lonely when it comes back.

Zhao Wenwan collapsed on the ground in exhaustion, next to Gu Jingxing, tears could no longer be stopped, and he heard a sudden cough beside him.

"...Ahem, what you said counts?"
