Chapter 448 Falling off a Cliff (Part [-])
The screams were loud and spread into the valley, echoing across the valley.

Xu frowned, took a step back, and raised her head to look at Dai Yu.

The doorman on the side was embarrassed and said, "This way please, come here."

Before he had gone far, there was another scream.

Mrs. Xu's scalp felt numb, she hugged the child tightly in her arms, and quickly followed the doorman.

Not long after they left the mountain gate, a small figure slowly came up the inclined path.

The screams came faintly, very faintly, spreading far away in the wind.

Xia Zhaoyi raised his head and looked towards the mountain gate. His small face was facing the morning light, his cheeks had a very weird blush, and his forehead was wrapped with a handkerchief, which seemed to be wiping his forehead. The inside was very bulging, covered with a lot of frost and snow.

I saw a lot of blood on the road, thinking that the mountain would be messed up, but when I came up, I found that apart from the seemingly invisible screams, the place was very peaceful.

Leaning on a tree stick, she looked at the mountain gate here, thinking about going there, but felt that the second brother would definitely not enter here.

She was sure that the second brother was coming this way, because along the way, the places where people had rested and the techniques of building wooden frames and fires that were found on the way were the second brother's usual methods.

But according to the temperament of the second brother, he should not go to Yuanhe Zongmen.

This time trekking across the mountains and ridges, the second brother's purpose is very clear, that is to assassinate Emperor Xuanyan, no matter whether he succeeds or not, he should not want to drag other people into the water, so the less people see him, the better.

Thinking of this, Xia Zhaoyi's heart trembled with fear.

Whether it is successful or not, there is no turning back.

Second brother, he might be begging to die.

Not daring to delay any longer, Xia Zhaoyi withdrew his gaze and walked towards the other intersection on crutches.

Her footsteps wobbled for a while, and she frowned, a little annoyed.

When is it not good to get sick, but this time is the time to get sick.

After traveling for many days, she was exhausted to the extreme. If it wasn't for the few archers who appeared out of nowhere last night and forced her to stay away overnight, she would not have such a severe fever now.

It's not right to hold on now, she needs to rest.

Looking up at the sky, it was getting brighter and brighter. Although the second brother begged to die, he would never let himself die for nothing. He wanted to kill Emperor Xuanyan, so he probably wouldn't act recklessly during the day.

So, she should be able to rest for a while.

"Then, rest for a while." Xia Zhaoyi said lightly.

But the wind and snow here are too heavy, she needs to find a reliable place.

Looking around, he saw a flat land in the distance.

The cliff leading to the flat land is very steep, and there is a large false road piled up with frost and snow outside the mountain. When she passes by smoothly, she can throw a stone to knock down the snow road to prevent anyone from coming.

……

……

Zhili was tied to the bed, and the knife in the hand of Immortal Bailu picked out the wooden thorns in the wound bit by bit. There were a lot of broken leaves and mud in the wound. Apart from these, the rest was blood and pus. Very dirty.

A few immortal masters and disciples were helping at the side, weeping and crying.

Old Patriarch Pei sat on the other side. Because his hands were shaking, he cut a lot of knives and was driven to face the wall.

"... just kill me, I promised that those herbs would paralyze me for a while, why didn't it work, why! Woohoo, Master, I want Master!"

"It was your master who asked us to tie it up for you," Old Sect Master Pei said.

"Let my master come!" Zhili cried loudly, "I'm dying of pain, you are not saving me, you are killing pigs! Humans are knives, I am fish, I am now a pig!"

"Don't cry, don't cry," Old Sovereign Pei coaxed, "Don't cry, just make it through, be obedient, ah."

"Ah!!!" As Immortal Master Bailu raised the saber in his hand and dropped it, Zhili screamed again.

If I knew it earlier, I endured the pain last night and asked that knight to help.

Fragmentary pain to fainting.

There was a knock on the door.

Old Sect Master Pei looked up.

After knocking three or four times, the door was pushed open from the outside, and a doorman walked in and said in a low voice: "Sovereign, there is indeed a visitor."

Old Sect Master Pei paused, and hurriedly said, "Do you have children?"

"Yes," the doorman nodded, paused, and said, "But, it's a baby."

"baby?"

"right……"

"Did you go to Guanxing Pavilion?" Old Sect Master Pei asked.

"Third Junior Brother has gone, coming back and forth, so I need some time."

Old Sect Master Pei nodded, got up and said, "Then I'll go and have a look."

Xu has been holding the child and never let go.

The screams still sounded from time to time, which always made her feel uneasy.

Dai Yu sat next to her, with a slightly anxious expression on his face, eager to go back.

Xu looked around, suddenly frowned, feeling faintly wrong, but couldn't tell what was wrong.

"Brother Dai," Mrs. Xu looked at Dai Yu and said in a low voice, "How can the person in charge haven't come yet..."

Dai Yu shook his head, he didn't know.

Xu sighed, and looked at the baby girl in her arms.

What they didn't know was that on the other side of the living room, there were two pairs of eyes secretly watching.

Mrs. Xu is very thin, with only a bony skin left. She is skinny, very dark and tall. The child in her arms can't see the face clearly, but it is too small.

Old Sovereign Pei let go of the small tube in his hand, looked at Jiang Zhangwu next to him: "Probably not."

"I don't look like it either," Jiang Zhangwu said, still looking at Xiaotong. "The elder told the suzerain at the time that he should be an eleven or twelve-year-old boy."

"He also said that one can only believe in things like destiny." Old Sect Master Pei said.

"The person next to him claims to be a guard of the Zuilu Guo family," Jiang Zhangwu said, "Looking strong, he shouldn't have suffered these days, but he seems to be in a hurry to leave."

"Then let him go first," Old Sect Master Pei said, "Since he is a guard and has never been hungry, he can't appear here for no reason, so we won't waste his time, he should have something he wants to guard people at."

"Is the woman staying?"

"Hmm." Old Patriarch Pei replied.

"Okay." Jiang Zhangwu said, "I'll go and talk."

After Jiang Zhangwu went out, Old Sovereign Pei picked up the small bamboo tube again, pointed it at the hole in the wall, and continued to observe secretly.

"Can I go now?" Dai Yu said as he got up.

"Yes," Jiang Zhangwu said with a smile, "Be careful on the road, there will be heavy snow."

Dai Yu nodded, looked at Xu Shi next to her, and said, "Sister-in-law, then you can stay here with your daughter, and when we finish our business, maybe we will come back here to see you."

Xu's face showed reluctance, and said: "Okay, thank you Brother Dai and Mr. Shen Lang for your help in the past few days. If the concubine can get out of the current predicament in the future, I will definitely repay the favor of saving my life."

"It's serious, it's serious," Dai Yu said, "No need."

Xu smiled, stopped talking, and looked back at the girl in her arms.

The reluctance is fake, but the gratitude is real. It is indeed thanks to them that she survived these days.

Dai Yu thanked Jiang Zhangwu again, then took his leave and left.

Out of the mountain gate, the frost and snow became bigger.

Dai Yu walked all the way to the northeast, when he passed a mountain pass, his footsteps stopped suddenly, and he saw a little boy in the distance.

The little boy walked a little wobbly, holding the stick in his hand, his steps were unsteady.

Dai Yu recognized it at a glance, and after being stunned, he raised his voice and called out, "Ali!"

Although the wind and snow were loud, his voice was not low, but the girl seemed to be unable to hear it, and walked more and more swayingly.

"A Li!" Dai Yu shouted again, running towards that road.

As he ran, the snow on the side of the road suddenly fell.

Only then did Dai Yu realize that this is a false road, and the secret path is not good.

Seeing the snow road in front of her collapse, the girl walking on the road suddenly twisted, and her whole body rolled straight down along the snow slope.
