It's late at night!

It is extremely quiet in Xiangshan Temple.

The sound of rain outside was "pattering", which made people feel depressed.

The bandits had taken the women back to the rooms in the backyard to rest, and the main hall was empty at this time.

Princess Lao Zhan quietly opened the door of the dark room, and seeing that there was no one around, she asked the girls behind her to follow her out.

Everyone supported each other and huddled together cautiously, their hearts seemingly jumping out of their throats.

Princess Lao Zhan led everyone out of the main hall without saying a word.

They were lucky and didn't run into anyone until they reached the gate.

However, this sacred place, which was originally a place for worshiping gods and Buddhas, was now filled with corpses.

There are pilgrims and also those novice monks from Xiangshan Temple...

Princess Lao Zhan and the others even saw the little monk who had led them to hide that day, and had been chopped in half with his eyes wide open.

Xie Wanying was so frightened that she couldn't help but want to scream, but she covered her mouth in time, her face full of horror.

Princess Lao Zhan only glanced at her and then retracted her gaze. She pulled Xie Wanying and whispered:

"Don't be afraid."

I don't know whether this "don't be afraid" was meant to comfort Xie Wanying or to comfort herself.

Just when they were about to leave, two people suddenly came staggering over, looking like they were drunk.

This scene scared the group of girls so much that they almost screamed out loud.

It's completely deserted here now, and there's nowhere to hide. If you're discovered, there's no way to survive!

"Aunt Xuan..." Xie Wanying's hand was shaking as she held Princess Zhan's. Her voice was filled with tears.

Princess Lao Zhan took a deep breath, patted the back of Xie Wanying's hand, and without saying a word, she pulled her to lie down among the pile of corpses. She also wiped a handful of blood and smeared it on Xie Wanying and herself.

When the other girls saw this, they followed suit and lay down among the corpses.

The smell of rotting corpses in the air was disgusting, but at this moment they could only hold back their nausea, close their eyes and dare not move.

The two bandits not far away came to the entrance of the hall together, pulled up their pants and urinated outside the yard, saying:

"Oh, this job of ours is really enjoyable! The ladies in the capital are really cool."

"Even so, Hiccup, we haven't found the person we're looking for yet. Could it be that Hiccup, could it be that he ran away?"

"How could she run away? The road to Xiangshan Temple is blocked. Where can Huo Zhanting's mother go at her age? She must be hiding in the temple! Let's look for her tomorrow!"

Princess Lao Zhan was somewhat shocked when she heard this.

These people went to so much trouble and killed so many people, just to find her?

and……

These people have bad intentions. They are looking for her, probably to use her to threaten Huo Zhanting!

And now, the border war is tense... They are thinking...

When Princess Lao Zhan thought of this man, she felt a chill all over her body. She made up her mind that she must not let them catch her!

Even though I can’t help my son, I can’t become a burden to him!

After the two men finished their task, they didn't delay any further and planned to turn back.

But at this moment, Xie Wanying felt an itch on her neck. She twisted her body impatiently, trying to get rid of it.

But the thing on her neck crawled directly along her neck to her face.

With the faint light, Xie Wanying saw at a glance that the thing lying on the tip of her nose was actually a white maggot!

Xie Wanying's pupils shrank in fear, and she screamed "Ah!" She reached out and slapped the maggot on the tip of her nose away, and then she stood up from the pile of corpses.

In an instant, all eyes were focused on her.

The two bandits who were about to leave also glanced at Xie Wanying.

"It's Huo Zhanting's lover!"

The two recognized Xie Wanying at a glance, their eyes lit up immediately, and they rushed towards Xie Wanying!

Xie Wanying's feet seemed to be welded to the ground, and she felt as if they were filled with lead. She was so frightened that she couldn't move. She could only shout, "Aunt Xuan, save me!"

Princess Lao Zhan looked at the two bandits rushing towards her, and quickly stood up, pulled out the hairpin on her head, tripped the two men to the ground with one kick, picked up the hairpin and stabbed it hard into their necks.

"Well!"

The two men groaned and covered their necks, twitching in pain.

Without saying a word, Princess Zhan stood up immediately, pulled Xie Wanying along, and shouted to the others:

"Run! Run apart!"

The group of girls were already frightened out of their wits. When they heard what Princess Lao Zhan said, they immediately got up and ran away.

While running, a girl couldn't help but ask with a trembling voice:

"You are the old Princess Zhan? The danger in Xiangshan Temple today is all because of you?"

The old Princess Zhan was also in a heavy mood. After hearing the little girl's question, she sighed and said:

"I'm sorry, I don't know why they are looking for me, but... I must not be caught by them, otherwise... my son will be in danger."

Several girls listened to what the old Princess Zhan said, looked at each other, and realized the seriousness of the matter!

As if they had made up their minds, each of them showed a hint of determination:

"Don't worry, old princess! These evil people want to harm King Zhan and the Great Yong Dynasty, we will never let them succeed!"

"Yes! We will definitely protect you!"

Princess Lao Zhan was touched when she saw that the girls were obviously terrified but did not blame her for getting them into trouble.

"Let's hurry up. I'm afraid those people will react soon after seeing what happened just now!"

A group of people were running quickly in the rain, but they were just a group of women after all, how could they outrun those well-trained bandits?

Seeing the bandits getting closer and closer to them, Xie Wanying accidentally tripped and fell to the ground with a scream.

Almost at the same time, those people caught up with Xie Wanying and put a knife to her neck.

Xie Wanying was terrified and immediately screamed, "Don't, don't kill me! Old Princess! Old Princess, save me!"

As soon as Xie Wanying's voice came out, the gangsters' eyes lit up and they immediately asked:

"Old Princess? Is it the old Princess Zhan? Is she here too?"

Xie Wanying nodded repeatedly, looking conflicted. She pointed at the old Princess Zhan who had stopped in front of her. She shrank back and dared not look her in the eye. She said in a trembling voice:

"Yes, it's her. She is Huo Zhanting's mother. She is the person you are looking for. Wuuuu, please let me go. I don't know anything."

As Xie Wanying spoke, she started crying and looked so pitiful.

At this moment, the old Princess Zhan looked at the child whom she had raised as her own daughter in some disbelief, but she realized that she would betray her at such a time. The sadness in her heart outweighed the surprise.

She had never intended to abandon Xie Wanying!

"Don't be afraid, old princess! We, we will protect you!"

"Yes, we, we will protect you! Run away!"

The girls didn't have so many thoughts at this time. Seeing that the old Princess Zhan stopped, they hurried forward and formed a circle to protect her behind them.

Even though these girls were trembling with fear, they knew that if something happened to the old Princess Zhan, it wouldn't just be the people in Xiangshan Temple who would die!

The old Princess Zhan looked at these girls with moist eyes. She didn't expect that at this time, these girls who she had never met were willing to protect her with their lives. Instead...

The bandits didn't bother to pay attention to all this and just rushed over with a hideous grin on their faces.

"what!"

"Old Princess, run!"

One-sided slaughter! The entire scene was filled with sadness!

Seeing a young girl about to be pierced by a sword, the old princess could no longer bear it and rushed over, protecting the girl under her body, closing her eyes, just waiting for death to come...
