“After he finished explaining to me, he fainted on the ground. His men sent him to the room. I don’t know what I was thinking at the time, but I followed him. However, his men were guarding against me like a thief. I still remember his men’s expressions at the time. They were alert, as if I would do something bad to his master. I looked at the man lying quietly on the bed in the room, and kindly asked his men whether his master’s snake venom could survive until the doctor came?”

“Although his men reluctantly let me into the house, they still kept a close eye on me, fearing that I would do something to harm his master.”

“In order to buy time for the doctor, I sucked out some of the snake venom from the man. I didn’t see the man again for a while. I didn’t know if he was alive or dead. But two days later, the man reappeared in front of me.”

“Since then, he always liked to sit in my yard for a while after coming back from outside. Although we were often speechless, that time was the moment I recalled the most later.”

“Then one day, he finally spoke to me for the first time. He handed me a sword and asked me to learn martial arts from him. I didn’t know why he suddenly asked me to learn martial arts, but I obeyed and did as he said.”

“We stayed in that courtyard for three years, and I learned martial arts from him for three years. Finally, one day he was leaving, and he asked me if I wanted to go with him, and I nodded.”

“I went back to the grassland with him. I originally thought he was the son of a noble, but after arriving at the grassland I realized that he was not. He was just the child of a prostitute. His current status was earned by his life. I wanted him to live an easier life, so I proposed to him to return to Shangjing to be an insider. He didn’t agree at first, but he was in a difficult situation at the time, and he urgently needed an opportunity to break his current situation!”

“Finally he agreed, and I returned to Shangjing to deliberately meet you. Do you remember when you came to my house to find me to go to Huazhuang? He was inside the house at that time.”

Mian Ru looked up at the bright moon in the sky: “Shu’er, I have no choice. Ever since he pulled me back from hell, I have no choice. Even if he wants to kill everyone in the world, I will be the sharpest knife in his hand!”

Mian Ru tilted her head to look at Zhao Shu: “Shu’er, you know, the relationship between him and me is like that between fish and water. Fish can survive only because of water.”

Mian Ru withdrew her gaze from the night sky, stood up, and murmured: “In fact, I really want to experience the feeling of being bullied by the tiger.” She touched the iron lock with her hand: “Unfortunately, I didn’t have the chance from the beginning.”

Mian Ru used a key that she got from somewhere to open the iron cage, and the iron cage was pulled open: “Let’s go.”

Zhao Shu looked at her steadily: “What about you?”

Perhaps she had thought of something, the smile on Mianru’s face was clean and relaxed: “I want to stay here with him.”

Zhao Shu was startled and said in a difficult tone: “Have you thought it through?”

“He had thought of it as early as that year when he rescued me from the sea of ​​fire.” Mian Ruru said.

The iron cage became quiet again. Zhao Shu stared at the starry sky. In a flash, she stepped out of the iron cage and walked in the opposite direction without looking back.

Zhao Shu turned around in the distance, her red dress fluttering in the night wind. The girl with picturesque eyebrows and eyes looked very thin standing under the night sky.

Zhao Shu turned around and continued walking. A drop of crystal clear water slid across the corner of her eye and finally disappeared into the grass.

Zhao Shu tiptoed up behind a soldier who was draining water behind the tent, knocked him unconscious by surprise, dragged him aside and stripped off his clothes.

A moment later, a fair and handsome soldier walked out from behind the tent.

Zhao Shu held a torch and carried a scimitar, imitating the other Hu soldiers and patrolling the grassland. After patrolling for about an incense stick of time, a shout came from the darkness: “Help, help, the people are running away!”

Zhao Shu’s eyes flashed, and she immediately crushed the torch in her hand. She endured the pain and touched the charcoal ash on the torch with her fingers a few times, and thickened her eyebrows!
After finishing the drawing, he quickly used a fire starter to light it, lowered his head and followed the large group to where the fire was.

Lang Cheng was getting angry in the crowd, and the two soldiers who were on duty to guard Zhao Shu were lying on the ground lifeless.

Lang Cheng’s eyes were filled with an indescribable viciousness: “Chase him, make sure you bring him back to me!”

The leading soldier immediately nodded his head and responded, leading his men to chase out from the direction of the checkpoint. Zhao Shu mixed in the team and followed closely.

Lang Yue walked out of the tent, looking at the direction the team left.

The team passed the checkpoint and halfway through, the leading soldier divided the team into four groups and went to look for the “escaped Zhao Shu” separately.

Zhao Shu followed at the end of a group of people. As she ran, her pace slowed down, slower and slower. Finally, her figure turned away and disappeared at the back of the team.

Zhao Shu took off the heavy armor and threw it away while running, then went into the woods wearing only a single layer of clothes.

Zhao Shu’s breathing became rapid. After running a certain distance, she lightly tapped her toes and flew into the air on the tree.

His toes tapped lightly on the branch again and again, and when he saw the inn not far away, he jumped down from the branch.

Zhao Shu walked into the inn leisurely. Everyone in the inn looked at her clothes strangely, but she didn’t care. Just as she was about to ask the waiter to prepare a room for her, a “pop” sound came from the side!
Zhao Shu turned her head and saw an ordinary-looking man staring at her unhappily, with a broken teacup in his hand.

Zhao Shu frowned, retracted her gaze, and asked for a room. Although the shop owner was surprised by Zhao Shu’s attire, as long as there was business, she would be the God of Wealth no matter how strangely the guests were dressed!

The shopkeeper ordered the waiter to take Zhao Shu to the guest room. After Zhao Shu entered the room, she ordered the waiter to prepare a bathtub for her to take a bath. When the waiter was about to close the door and leave, she said that she would not go downstairs to eat three meals a day in the future and asked the waiter to bring them up.

In the days that followed, the waiter delivered meals to Zhao Shu’s room three times a day as instructed by Zhao Shu. Except for the first day when the people in the inn saw the strangely dressed woman, no one saw her again in the following days.

Apart from the occasional sound of the woman asking the waiter to get something for her, there was nothing else.

That day, the waiter was carrying the food to Zhao Shu as usual. Halfway up the stairs, the shopkeeper stopped him and said, “After you deliver the food to the guests, go outside and buy some hay for the horses!”

The waiter: “Okay!”

There was a knock on the guest room door, and Zhao Shu’s voice rang out: “Come in.”

The waiter opened the door and walked in. The conversation in the room could be vaguely heard downstairs: “Miss, this braised lion’s head is the most famous dish in our inn. Please try it.”

“Okay, come here and help me take a look at this table. It keeps shaking when we eat.”

“it is good.”

The room fell silent, and after a moment the voice rang out again: “Girl, I have fixed the table for you. Please enjoy it. I will be out first.”

“Thank you.”

“You’re welcome, young lady!”

The door was closed, and the waiter came out with an empty tray. After putting Toupang back in the kitchen, he left the inn directly to buy the horse fodder that the innkeeper had asked him to buy.

As night fell, the inn became busy. Guests who were traveling or staying overnight swarmed into the first floor, shouting at the waiter to serve the food.

There were so many people that even the shopkeeper was too busy to spare some time. After a while, the shopkeeper wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked around. When he saw that one person was missing, he frowned and shouted, “Where is that brat Da Zhuang? Where did he go to be lazy?”

One of the waiters who didn’t have a good relationship with Da Zhuang immediately complained, “Boss, he hasn’t come back since he went out to buy horse fodder this morning!”

When the shopkeeper heard this, his face wrinkled up: “I will definitely deduct his wages when this brat comes back!”

After hearing what the shopkeeper and the waiter said, the guests at two tables immediately frowned, then suddenly stood up and ran towards the guest rooms on the second floor.

The shopkeeper was startled. After seeing whose guest room they were going to, he was startled again. He ran towards them in a hurry: “No, no, that’s someone else’s guest room, you can’t go in!”

However, the group of people didn’t want to listen to his nonsense and just kicked the door open and rushed in!
As soon as the shopkeeper arrived, he saw a group of people walking out of the room with serious expressions.

Although the shopkeeper wanted to reprimand these unreasonable people, he immediately backed off after seeing their aggressive momentum.

He no longer cared about that group of people. The most urgent thing was to go to the room and see if the guest in this room was frightened. If so, he would have to pay some consolation money. The thought of this made him feel painful!

But as soon as he walked into the door, he was stunned, and then hurriedly walked towards the person tied to the bed. The shopkeeper pulled the clothes out of his mouth and asked repeatedly: “What happened? Why is it you? Where is the girl?”

The waiter Da Zhuang said bitterly, “He ran away.”

The shopkeeper was stunned for two seconds, then he slapped his thighs with both hands, sat on the ground, and cried out: “My room fee.”

Zhao Shu, who looked like a waiter, galloped through the woods, the sound of horse hooves continued.

Suddenly, Zhao Shu’s face changed, she tightened the reins in her hands and increased her speed.

Gradually, her expression became serious, and when the voice behind her came to her side, she drew out the dagger at her waist and slashed at the person who came!
Someone grabbed her wrist. Zhao Shu frowned and looked over. Then she was stunned. It was the man who crushed the teacup in the inn that day!
After seeing that he was not a Hu person, Zhao Shu couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, but she was instantly nervous again. She relaxed her expression and said gently, “Brother, what’s the matter?”

The man was startled for a moment, then he looked at her expressionlessly and said, “I remember you were a waiter in the inn, why did you come from such a far place?”

When Zhao Shu heard what he said, she relaxed her breath, but when she thought of what he said, her expression twisted slightly again. She forced a smile and said, “There’s something at home that I need to go back and take care of.”

The man insisted: “What’s the matter?”

Zhao Shu smiled falsely: “This is my private matter, there is no need to tell you, right?”

The man didn’t say anything, but just held Zhao Shu’s wrist tightly.

Zhao Shu lost her patience with him and pulled her hand away from him. She didn’t intend to pay any more attention to this strange man. She grabbed the reins and was about to ride away.

“Zhao Shu!” the man suddenly spoke.

Zhao Shu was startled and turned around to look at him.

The man thundered out word by word: “Zhao Shu, is the red mole on the bottom of your foot still there?”

Zhao Shu’s face turned green and red, and finally she said calmly: “Who are you?”

The man suddenly laughed roguishly: “Guess who I am?”

Zhao Shu looked at the man’s appearance at this moment and always felt that he looked like someone.

She looked at the man and said hesitantly: “Xie Jin?”

The man sneered. Zhao Shu didn’t know what he meant by that sneer, but based on his annoying attitude, she became more and more certain about who he was.

Zhao Shu did not hesitate this time and said calmly: “Cousin Jin, this is not the place to talk, let’s leave here first!”

After saying this, the man rode out on his horse!
The man was blinded by the dust raised by the horse. Looking at the figure running away, his chest heaved twice. Then he exhaled a breath and chased after it fiercely.

Under normal circumstances, Zhao Shu would definitely not abandon her people and run away like she did just now, but she was so nervous just now that she spoke before she even thought about it. She decided to just go all out and ride away!
We’ll tell you what he’ll do next later.

The man quickly caught up with Zhao Shu. Zhao Shu immediately turned her head and smiled at him, but before the smile faded, the man gave her an expressionless look, swung the reins hard, and rushed out.

Zhao Shu wiped the dust off her face and rode her horse to follow.

After two days of travel, Xie Jin and Zhao Shu finally arrived outside Shangjing City. Although the Hu people were driven out of Shangjing City, they were still unwilling to give up and stationed not far from the city, gathering their strength and waiting for the opportunity to attack the city again.

Zhao Shu rode her horse to Xie Jin’s side. They were on a cliff, and from this position they could just see the Hu people’s stationed troops.

The two men looked at the only road into the city which was completely blocked, but they showed no panic. They calmly turned their horses around and rode leisurely.

The two men came to the depths of the woods. Xie Jin stopped his horse, dismounted, walked to a big tree and sat down.

Zhao Shu tied her horse next to his and then sat on the ground.

The air was silent for a while, and Xie Jin said in a low voice: “I don’t see you being anxious about not being able to enter the city?”

Zhao Shu threw the question back: “Is cousin Jin anxious?”

Xie Jin raised his eyes and looked at her steadily, then raised his lips and smiled: “Shu’er is really a smart girl.”

Zhao Shu shook her head: “In terms of intelligence, who can compare to cousin Jin who is both talented and handsome?”

Xie Jin retracted his gaze and said calmly: “How do you think we should enter the city?”

Zhao Shu smiled and said, “Shu’er doesn’t know. I’ll listen to what cousin Jin said.”

Xie Jin gave her a knowing look and said, “Let’s take advantage of the chaos to enter the city.”

Hearing this, Zhao Shu seemed to suddenly understand: “Cousin Jin is smart!”

Xie Jin looked at her with a half-smile: “You are not much behind.”

Zhao Shu shook her head sincerely: “No, no, no, who dares to compare with cousin Jin in terms of intelligence.”

Xie Jin’s eyes deepened, and then he looked at her coldly.

Zhao Shu: “Brother Jin, if you need me to do anything, just let me know!”

This time, Xie Jin didn’t even want to look at her again. Zhao Shu secretly rolled her eyes at her, saying, “You’re so narrow-minded!”
Zhao Shu had been secretly watching Xie Jin, and when she saw him suddenly close his eyes, she changed her previous sneaky behavior and looked at him openly.

The more Zhao Shu looked at Xie Jin, the more she felt that he really had a good-looking face. His eyebrows, eyes and nose were all perfectly beautiful. No wonder all the little girls in Beijing were secretly in love with him!

Xie Jin’s eyelids twitched slightly, and Zhao Shu immediately turned her eyes away guiltily, looking at the weeds under her feet as if she was trying to hide something.

Xie Jin curled his lips imperceptibly, and then asked in a confused voice: “Does it look good?”

Zhao Shu pulled the weeds from time to time: “What’s so good about it?”

Xie Jin smiled silently: “Me.”

Zhao Shu pulled up the weeds in her hand and threw them aside casually, saying casually, “It’s okay.”
