The author and protagonist HE [Transmigration Book]

The old master stood in the dark, raised his bow and arrow and aimed at the two fallen people.

The heavy bows and arrows were engraved with complex incantations, and the tips of the arrows shone with a cold light, giving people a sense of uneasiness.

Just before the arrow shot out, the clear and crisp birdsong rang out above the old teacher's head.

A few lumps of wet things landed on his head, the old master shook his hand, and the arrow deviated from the direction.

Before he got angry, those birds that ran out of nowhere disappeared.

The wind in the forest suddenly blew up. At the beginning, it just blew the branches and leaves, confusing the eyes. In a short while, the wind was strong, and the nearby small trees and shrubs were uprooted.

Both the small waterfall and the pool were stirred up, and the mist blocked the view. The hidden assassin accidentally encountered the falling pool, and was immediately scalded until his skin became red and stinging, and he immediately shrank back.

The attack stopped temporarily.

The old master stared at the assassin he had brought with hatred, but he could barely hold his figure in the strong wind so as not to be blown away.

When I looked down again, there was a vast expanse of white in the middle of the pool, and I couldn't see anything clearly.

Only the pool of water gushing out seems to be boiling, with white foam surging, which makes people dare not go forward easily.

And the wind is getting stronger.

Maybe it triggered some mechanism here.

The old master finally took a look at the bare cliff - almost all the spiritual herbs had been burned.

He felt a little relieved in his heart, frowned and said in a low voice: "Let's go."

After leaving the forest, the assassin followed the old master, heaved a sigh of relief, and slowed down his pace.

The assassin raised his head inadvertently, saw the old master's head, he hesitated to speak.

"My lord..."

The old master thought that he was going to give himself an excuse to shirk his responsibility, so he snorted coldly: "You can't even kill two little girls - and there is a fool who can't do anything, what reason do you want to find now? ! What use are you, a bunch of waste!"

The assassin lowered his head and obediently listened to the training, and decided not to tell Master Guoshi that he had several lumps of bird feces on his head.

Anyway, they all covered their faces, and it wasn't them who were ashamed.

"Puff-"

The princess took Xiao Muyu's hand and fell into the pool together.

The steaming mist turned into a natural barrier behind them.Although it blocks the field of view, it cannot resist all damage.

The princess covered the wound on her abdomen, trying to drag the fainted Xiao Muyu ashore.

She knew there was another cave nearby where she could temporarily hide.

The smell of blood spread in the pool water, because the water temperature continued to rise, and the speed of blood loss accelerated.

The princess began to feel dizzy.

There may also be a psychological effect.

The moment she rushed out of the water again, she subconsciously looked towards the direction that was originally covered with spiritual grass. There was only a mist, and there was no attack again, but she couldn't see anything on the opposite side.

Hearing the movement, those people should have left.

But the princess knew that what she wanted was absolutely impossible to keep.

If she was in the position of the old national teacher, even if she couldn't kill herself immediately, she would definitely destroy what she wanted first.

damn it!

The princess resentfully hammered down the nearby rock wall.

The spirit grass is not a necessity for cultivation, but it can greatly reduce the possibility of becoming obsessed during cultivation. The most important thing is that it has the effect of detoxifying and purifying the heart. After practicing with the spirit grass, it can more safely detoxify her father's body.

The old national teacher is confident now, and she dare not act rashly, but it is because the old national teacher still holds the old emperor's life in his hands.

It's just that the old national teacher valued his reputation and wanted to be that pious person. Until the last moment, he would not easily kill the old emperor, but needed him to restrain the princess.

It was precisely because of this that the princess didn't really tear up her face with the old master, and waited for the opportunity.

But in this match, she was naturally at a disadvantage.

Now, the bargaining chips that had been obtained with great difficulty were instantly cleared.

Back to the original position.

But she couldn't blame Xiao Muyu.

Regardless of Xiao Muyu's meaning to her, if Xiao Muyu hadn't saved her, she might have died at the hands of the old master.

Once she dies, the old emperor will be useless and will only die faster.

And... Could it be that she really doesn't know how the old master got here?

But she still thinks highly of herself, thinking that with a few more years of memory and cultivation, she can sit back and relax.

But she never thought of deliberately guarding against Xiao Muyu, nor did she ever think of having a heart-to-heart relationship with Xiao Muyu, or at least find a way to exchange information.

It's useless to think too much now.

At most, it's just a return to the origin.

As long as she's alive, she hasn't lost yet.

The princess half-hugged and half-dragged Xiao Muyu ashore until she hugged her behind a sheltered cliff before letting her down, squeezing her chest to make her spit out the pond water she had swallowed.

"Cough cough cough-"

Xiao Muyu opened his eyes with difficulty, but his consciousness was still not clear, and he focused several times before he could see the princess's face clearly.

"...You're all right, great."

Xiao Muyu seemed to be exhausted because of a sudden relaxation, and he stretched out his hand halfway before smashing it back to the ground.

The princess was so frightened that she immediately reached out to feel her pulse.

still alive.

The princess sat down on the spot, and her buzzing brain gradually returned to calm.

Only then did she discover the wound on Xiao Muyu's body, a wound on the shoulder that was cut by an arrow, a scratch on the side of the waist, and blood slowly flowing out from under the wrist.

Fortunately, most of them are just skin trauma.

But in that case, it was only a hair's breadth away, and if you were not careful, you would die.

Isn't this person most afraid of death? Why did he go so desperately to save her?

There is only the most instinctive reaction in that situation.

It might be better to say that Xiao Muyu has such a character in the first place - she says she is afraid of death, but once she sees people around her in danger, she always acts faster than she realizes, and when she reacts, she has already rushed to protect them. someone else.

In the end, he lost his life like this.

Xiao Muyu treats everyone like this.

"Ruoyu..." The unconscious man murmured, as if calling someone's name.

The princess remembered calling it that name the night before, when she was asleep.

After all, it's about the past that she can't touch.

The princess felt that her consciousness was a little fuzzy, maybe the abdominal wound had lost too much blood, but she still insisted on helping Xiao Muyu stop the bleeding first.

When she raised her injured wrist, the princess realized that Xiao Muyu was clenching her fist tightly, as if she was holding something.

When I looked closely, I found a piece of faint blue, like spiritual grass growing on the cliff.

When Xiao Muyu rushed over, she subconsciously pulled a handful of grass.

The princess paused in place, dazed for a moment, unable to react for a long time.

In the end, I could only laugh.

When Xiao Muyu woke up again, she was stunned for a long time.

It took her a while to realize that she was still in the cabin.

The sound of dead branches burning next to her made her think in a trance that time was going back, or she was still in a dream and hadn't woken up.

But when I turned my head, I knew it was different.

The princess leaned against the table and closed her eyes to rest her mind. The wound on her abdomen was bandaged after torn clothes were dried, but failed to stop the bleeding. The outermost part of the cloth strip was already red.

There was a circle of black and blue under her eyes, and the fatigue on her face was clearly visible.

Xiao Muyu had never seen her like this.

When she was in Xuefu Kingdom, she was still a high and glamorous princess, and it seemed that nothing was difficult to defeat her, and nothing could hurt her.

Only now did Xiao Muyu clearly realize that the person in front of him was not an omnipotent god, and he hadn't even set foot on the avenue of ascension.

There are people in the world who are stronger than her now, and of course she will get hurt.

even death.

Xiao Muyu lay stiffly for a long time before slowly getting up, the pain from all over her body let her know that this was not a dream.

But apart from the pain of the wound, she didn't feel any other discomfort, and she was even more relaxed than usual.

The pain was routine for her and not that unbearable.

Sensing the movement here, the princess slowly opened her eyes, and looked at Xiao Muyu through the firelight.

"I'm sorry." Xiao Muyu apologized honestly.

It's never too late to apologize.

No matter what, it was all her fault, although it was not her own subjective intention, but...

It really caused a lot of trouble for the princess.

"It doesn't matter." The princess replied lightly.

"After that—" Xiao Muyu wanted to ask what happened afterwards.

Will those who hunted down the princess give up?

The princess was alone, injured - and with her oil bottle, it was not easy to deal with it.

"I haven't seen those people again." The princess said, "You have slept for two days. The forest outside has grown into a maze, and there is fog everywhere, and they can't sense the direction with spiritual power. They can't find here for the time being."

"Then you... are your injuries okay?"

"It's okay." The princess said lightly, "It's just a little skin trauma."

But her pale face was not convincing at all.

The princess followed up and said: "I have already detoxified you from the poison on your body. Tomorrow I will take you down the mountain to Yulin Valley. There is a genius doctor there who can check your body. threatened."

Xiao Muyu stared at the princess for a long while, making sure that the poison she said had no second meaning.

"When... did you know?"

"In the beginning."

"Then why did you keep me?"

Knowing that she is an undercover agent sent by the enemy, but still wanting to keep her, and even bring her by her side, is the princess crazy?

Xiao Muyu couldn't help but said: "If you don't bring me this time, maybe he won't know that you are here at all, and you will get what you want safely—"

"I have already got it now." The princess interrupted her with an unbelievably calm expression, "I said it at the beginning, I only need you to stay by my side, nothing else matters."

"Why?" Xiao Muyu is still puzzled by this question.

The princess avoided her eyes.

"There is no reason." The princess's voice became cold and hard, and she continued the previous topic, "The place where Yulin Valley is located is a paradise, and further east are two relatively large countries. They are not so harsh on women, and their lives are relatively comfortable. , but the climate is different, one is warm in winter and cool in summer, but relatively humid, and the other..."

"Wait, why are you telling me this?" Xiao Muyu asked her.

"I can take you there," replied the princess, "and you can live there as you wish."

Does it mean that there is no need to go back to the palace of Xuefu Kingdom?

Don't you have to go back in the future?

He obviously said earlier that he wanted her to stay, why did he turn around and say he wanted to send her away.

Xiao Muyu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking: "Why?"
