Chapter 55

But after all, this is just a strategy to delay the attack. Although it did make them distance from the pursuers, it didn't take long for the killers to realize that they had been fooled, and a large number of them gathered to chase here, and started a carpet search in all directions.

Qin Xian and Wan Qixiao were chased all the way and had no choice but to flee up the mountain, complaining secretly in their hearts.The way down the mountain was guarded, and now they are like trapped animals, being chased and can only continue to escape into the mountain.But the question is, if they can escape for a while but not forever, how long can they escape?What's more damning is that they can't leave the palace for too long, they have to rush back today, otherwise tomorrow the court will end the ten-day break, and the concubines in the harem will pay their respects. If they find out that the emperor and empress are not in the palace, what kind of uproar will it cause?Those who are interested will definitely take the opportunity to set off a storm of turmoil in the imperial city.

What's even more frightening is that the facts are even worse than imagined.

When they staggered all the way until the sun was high, they climbed to the top of the mountain, and when they got out of the woods, they found that there was no road ahead!This is a cliff!The cliff on the opposite side is at least a hundred meters away from here, which is simply out of reach for ordinary manpower.

Wan Chengxiao stepped forward to look at the bottomless cliff below, and could not hear the echo of the gravel falling under his feet.Wan Qixiao let out a long breath, backed away slowly, and turned around abruptly, it turned out that it was Qin Xian standing beside her.

He takes her hand.

Wan Chengxiao looked at him, and he also looked down at Wan Chengxiao.The noon sun shines down, depicting a beautiful figure of a young man and a woman looking at each other on the cliff.

I don't know if it's Wan Chengxiao's illusion. It seems that Qin Xian didn't show his usual gloomy expression all day long. Even if he was hunted down, he seemed to be more excited than gloomy and resentful.This man is really strange.

At this time, Qin Xian held Wan Chengxiao's hand, but his embarrassed appearance did not damage his demeanor. With a smile on his lips, he calmly asked her, "Are you afraid?"

His eyes were dark and deep, shining brightly, brighter than the most beautiful stars in the night sky.There was a soft smile on Wan Chengxiao's lips, and he sneered conceitedly: "I've never been afraid." The two clenched each other's hands tightly like lovers and rivals, very tight, yes Being truthful is also an expression of the feeling of sharing weal and woe.Then the two faced the cliff side by side and looked at the sun shining in the sky, then turned their heads and smiled at each other, seeing the same insight in each other's eyes.

It was already half an hour after Zuo Qianhong led the killers to catch up.

As soon as he climbed the cliff, he saw only empty cliffs. Zuo Qianhong's eyes froze, and he rushed forward to investigate. Look around in front of the crossbar chest, beware of the enemy hiding and attacking.

However, there are no trees or stones around the cliff to hide, and there is no murderous intent in the surrounding area except for the howling mountain wind in winter.It seemed that there were no Tibetans around.So where did people go?Could it be that……

All the killers turned their gazes to the cliff unconsciously.

Zuo Qianhong squatted on the edge of the cliff and looked carefully. There was nothing on the edge of the cliff except for a pool of crimson blood that hadn't completely condensed. Below was a bottomless cliff.The grass and vines on the edge of the cliff were withered and brown, and a few pieces of purple clothes were also hooked.Judging from the situation, it seems that Qin Xian fled here and suffered from injuries. Seeing the pursuers coming, he felt that he would rather die than surrender, and both jumped off the cliff.

"My lord, the goal seems to be to jump off the cliff and kill myself." The deputy leader of the killer concluded with his hands clasped.

"Hmph." Zuo Qianhong sneered, waved his hands, and motioned silently for him to come with him.

The killer's deputy leader followed up suspiciously, and walked more than 20 steps to the side. Standing on the edge of the cliff, he could see a side profile of the top of the mountain.About three zhang down from the cliff of Qianfeng, a smear of blue linen clothes fluttered flickeringly.The deputy leader was startled, and immediately turned to look at Zuo Qianhong.

Zuo Qianhong, with white beard and hair, had a fierce aura, and sneered with his white beard curled up: "Who are they, how could they be willing to die like this! They are clearly hanging from the cliff with that dead vine to deceive us!"

"Your Excellency is wise!" The deputy leader bowed his head with his hands in admiration.

A vicious light gathered in Zuo Qianhong's eyes, and he used his magic skills with a ferocious face, the veins on his forehead popped out, and with a "ha", he used all his skills to sweep out a beam of light, hitting the hiding place of the corner of his clothes.Wherever the red light passed, everything was invincible, and the muddy cliff was immediately shot out by the powerful red light with a round hole the size of a plate, right in the middle of the hanging vine.I heard a scream of "ah", and then a purple and a green figure tied together quickly fell down together with the broken vines, the scream of "ah..." quickly went away, echoing in the cliff , continuously.

Pleasure and resentment flashed across Zuo Qianhong's face, admiring the endless screams echoing from the cliff, he finally shook his sleeves: "Let's go! You go to the bottom of the cliff to search for the corpse. If you don't see the corpse, you must not easily believe that the enemy is dead!" .”

"Yes!" The deputy leader flew away with a group of killers, and hurried down the cliff to find the corpse.

Zuo Qianhong took the remaining three killers down the mountain in a good mood.

The sun is shining brightly, the white clouds are long, and it is a foot and a half below the cliff.

"Ah...ah...ah..."

"Okay, everyone is gone, what are you calling so lewd!" Wan Chengxiao bumped Qin Xian with his elbow.

Qin Xian cast a sideways glance at Wan Qixiao, but said nothing.Wan Chengxiao understood the message in his eyes, and immediately fell silent, waiting with bated breath.Qin Xian's glance just now was mocking her for not knowing enough about Zuo Qianhong.Zuo Qianhong has a suspicious personality, and it is very likely that he will kill his carbine.

Wan Qixiao curled her lips, feeling a little unconvinced in her heart. She only knew Zuo Qianhong's distant side at the Yehua Banquet, and she had never met him before, so how could she understand him!But if you are not convinced, you are not convinced, she is not someone who can't afford to lose, she admits to this mistake.Hmph, let Qin Xian be proud again!
In fact, Wan Chengxiao thought too much by himself, Qin Xian really didn't mean to ridicule or complacent in that look, he never had the idea of ​​competing with her at all.In Qin Xian's thinking, women are the appendages of men, no matter how strong or talented they are, they belong to men after all.Mo Qixiao is his woman, his wife, no matter how good or smart she is, she will be attached to him after all, so he never thought that Wan Chengxiao would have the idea of ​​replacing her.On the other hand, Wan Chengxiao, whose soul is from another world, does not have the feudal idea that men and women are attached to each other. Therefore, based on the cognition of equality between men and women, she always regards Qin Xian as an opponent, always thinking about how to compare and grasp the opponent's strength Level.

Not long after, there were light footsteps above.
