Traveling with a female companion

- in times of crisis

"What about the heroine..." Song Xiaocheng's voice echoed in the empty room, and fear welled up in her heart.

"Go to Taohuayuan first." Yuan Qingzhu signaled.The two headed south.It was the same as what I saw on the night watch before. The iron gate of the small building was tightly closed. At first glance, it looked like a vault gate. Who knew there was a beauty hidden inside.

Song Xiaocheng led Yuan Qingzhu forward to push her. She didn't know what was going on in her mind, was there only a wall between her and the person she wanted to see?Yuan Qingzhu exerted force from the side, her brows were tightly furrowed to see that she had exerted all her strength, but the door made of refined iron did not move at all. "Huiyu, Senior Sister is here!" She shouted, but her voice was lost in the vast night, only the sound of wind blowing branches in the peach forest answered her.

Song Xiaocheng couldn't bear it, she didn't want to see this Huiyu very much, Yuan Qingzhu had already said that she didn't want her to make up, but she still had to run around, which caused so much trouble.Looking at Yuan Qingzhu who was speechless in the night wind, she stepped forward to comfort her and said, "Woman, one person's strength is really not enough. Let's find a way to find ten servants to push the door."

It was already the third watch, and it would be dawn in a few hours. Song Xiaocheng stretched out her arms and was a little tired. Seeing Yuan Qingzhu standing still, she persuaded: "It's not good to consume too much energy. We'll also find a place." Rest for a while, all the ecstasy powder is sprinkled, and that half-human, half-ghost thing Liu Eunuch is hiding somewhere, and then you have to use brute force to make people obedient." Yuan Qingzhu pursed her lips, and finally obeyed her advice.

The Eunuch's Mansion, a wicked place, can't stay any longer. If they want to have a good rest, they have to go elsewhere. The two of them jumped out of the wall to find a foothold elsewhere.Along the way, Song Xiaocheng calculated the time, and Steward Dong's drug effect should have passed, but she wasn't worried about that, ten concubines couldn't handle him alone.Lai Fufa's madness should also be overpowering, he is just a little guy, and has no effect other than holding back the Long family brothers... But what eunuch Liu meant by sending away the sixth class, I still don't understand.

They went to the pier, where they had agreed with the aunts and wives.Yuan Qingzhu didn't say anything along the way, and Song Xiaocheng didn't know what to say. Anyway, when she thought of her eagerness to push the iron door to see Huiyu, she felt inexplicably uncomfortable.

The people near the pier got up very early, and some people were already busy after three o'clock.From a distance, I saw the badgers sitting high on the wooden pillars of the dock, their furry paws built a pergola over their heads, stretched their thick necks and looked around, and immediately grinned when they saw them.

It slithered down from the tall pillar, and ran towards them with a happy face. The sun that had not risen in the early morning dyed its thick down with a faint golden layer.The badger flew into Song Xiaocheng's arms: "I'm finally waiting for you, I'm so worried!" Song Xiaocheng hugged it and turned around. "As long as you are safe, I want to go back and look for it, but I am afraid of missing it, Gulu... How is the punishment for the wicked?"

Song Xiaocheng hugged it tightly: "It's not good, that old eunuch is like a ghost, his hands are tied and he can't walk, but he disappeared into the hidden jade building, it's really a ghost. The badger's black nose wrinkled as if dissatisfied. "However, we have also gained something. The heroine's Xuanji has been found, and we even took away Chu Heng from the Warring States Period."

The badger had no interest in jade, so it stretched out its plush paws and tugged at Yuan Qingzhu's sleeve: "Miss Yuan, most of the tasks have been completed, have you found Huiyu?" Yuan Qingzhu's face moved slightly, and she shook her head slightly.Song Xiaocheng told Badger Badger about the iron gate of the small building in Taohuayuan, Badger Badger snorted: "I would have stayed with you if I had known. I am in charge of the old eunuch, and he still wants to escape?"

Song Xiaocheng said don't be an afterthought, and go see how the aunts and wives are doing.Badger was very happy, and took them to the inn by the pier, chattering that Steward Dong had woken up. When he woke up, he found ten concubines with arms crossed around him, almost peeing his pants in fright.

They entered the inn from the backyard, and an aunt sat waiting at the door of the house. When she saw them coming, she hurriedly notified them. Others also came out to greet them one after another, with joyful expressions on their faces.

"How is Steward Dong?" Song Xiaocheng asked urgently, and Linglong also came out with a smile. She had already changed into clean clothes, and took her hand affectionately: "Thank you, sister, come and see." They let two people and one badger into the room, and saw Steward Dong, who was usually flamboyant, beaten with bruised nose and swollen face, tied up and thrown in a corner with a ball of socks stuffed in his mouth. He rushed in and shrank back in fright, his eyes clearly said: "Miss, please forgive me!".

"It deserves it, who asked him to be an accomplice to harm others." Song Xiaocheng didn't let him loose. Qiyun said that he deserved what he deserved. When Eunuch Liu executed the concubines and wives in Baobaotang, he was handing props beside him. He also cheered and cheered, and stomped on their waists and legs when he took the time. They all gave him tofu, and it was still light to beat him up.

The aunts and wives acted as if Song Xiaocheng was the boss, moving stools and serving tea for her.Linglong was the most gentle to her, and she took the initiative to stand behind her and squeeze her shoulders: "Sister, you are too busy, tell us what happened afterwards." Another concubine also wanted to serve Yuan Qingzhu in the same way, and she was moved by her. It was a bit embarrassing for her to refuse, obviously she didn't have much affinity, and others would rather be around Song Xiaocheng.

Song Xiaocheng was massaged while drinking tea, and talked about how Laifu fought with Long Aotian, and how eunuch Liu in Cangyulou disappeared like a ghost, and they went to Peach Blossom Spring but couldn't enter, so take a rest and make plans. "Then what about Steward Dong?" Linglong asked her.The aunts and wives came up with ideas all over the place, some said to throw him into the river, some said to suffocate him in a place where no one was around, Song Xiaocheng shook her head in a leadership manner: "It's not good, this The guy is an accomplice, but death is not a crime. The few humanoid foxes I tied up in Daxian Villa did not kill them, but let them do coolie compensation. It is not him, but the perverted eunuch Liu who deserves to die. "

Steward Dong, who was in the corner with a pale face of fright, nodded desperately.Although the aunts and wives were not convinced, they also listened to Song Xiaocheng, and she said: "How about this, sell him to the boss of the pier boat as a coolie, share the money from selling him, and let him go to exercise in the strong wind and waves, life and death we I don’t care about it.” They were beaming, and to the pampered Steward Dong, working as coolies on the ship would mean cutting flesh with a blunt knife?

Butler Dong was happy for a moment, but his old face immediately became bitter again.They do what they say, and Fengying and Qiyun, who are good at dealing with people, go to the pier to find the owner of the ship.After a while, someone really came to buy it. Song Xiaocheng praised Dong Steward: "Don't look at his skin and tender flesh, he is definitely a good material for work. It's okay to leave the hard work to him. Carrying big bags and dumping dung buckets, fishing for fish in the sea and fishing for the moon in the sky, they are omnipotent.”

The aunts and wives surrounded the tall and strong boat boss, one big brother at a time, coaxing him a little lost, and then happily paid a sum of money, and dragged Steward Dong away with his big furry hand. His feet scratched on the floor and refused to leave, and the stinky socks stuffed in his mouth fell off, and he howled, "Help, aunts and wives, that coolie is not a human job!" With a kick on his butt, his facial features wrinkled and he didn't dare to speak anymore, and was dragged away.

The aunts and wives all applauded that this is what he deserved. He usually ate their tofu, and now he is loved and loved by the boss of the boat.Song Xiaocheng was also very happy, she solved this trouble so quickly, and distributed the silver taels equally among the aunts and wives.Turning to look at Yuan Qingzhu, she was sitting at the table with an angry face, resting her hands on the table and knocking on the countertop, with an impatient look on her face.

Seeing that she was not easy to mess with, the aunts and wives did not dare to step forward and asked Song Xiaocheng what to do.Song Xiaocheng said that ten big men should be able to push open the iron door, but the ecstasy powder has been used up, and there is no eunuch Liu as a hostage, so the servants will not listen to her.Qi Yun signaled the other women to come over, and said righteously: "Your kindness of saving your life will never be repaid. Although we are only weak women, we still have some strength. Let us push." ​​Song Xiaocheng laughed dumbfounded. Shaking hands, their intentions are good, but there is no reason to escape from the tiger's mouth and then escape back again, she will think of a way again.

The aunts and wives were very anxious, and they really couldn't figure it out for a while.The badger jumped onto Song Xiaocheng's lap and rubbed against her furryly.She touched the warm fur of the badger, and suddenly clapped her hands: "Oh, I forgot about this, I seem to have heard someone said that it is true that the iron door cannot be pushed open, but there is a drafty door on the roof." The hole, although ordinary people can't get in, but we have badgers!"

Yuan Qingzhu stood up all of a sudden. At that time, she was anxious and just wanted to push the door. No one thought that there was another entrance.Song Xiaocheng was very proud because she remembered that they bid farewell to the aunts and wives, and told them to stay in the inn and not go anywhere for the time being.Fengyingqiyun thanked her, Linglong held Song Xiaocheng very reluctantly, and kept telling her to be careful.

It was early morning when they rushed back to the eunuch's mansion.Song Xiaocheng felt weak after losing the ecstasy powder, and stayed by Yuan Qingzhu's side.Badger scratched her hand: "Don't worry, Miss Song, Miss Yuan will protect you."

When I arrived at the gate of the eunuch's mansion, something seemed wrong. Why were there so many soldiers and horses lined up so early in the morning?Two rows of armored soldiers lined up neatly, and there were several spearmen standing on the left and right to accompany them. In the middle of the queue stood a simple and unpretentious double carriage, as if waiting for someone to come out.Yuan Qingzhu was eager to jump into the wall to have a look, Song Xiaocheng reached out to stop her: "Women should be careful, and see what they are doing." They hid behind the opposite courtyard wall and watched.

Soon there was movement, two big men escorted around, with bows and arrows on their backs.A middle-aged woman came out with a veiled woman in her arms, followed by two brothers Long Aotian and Long Aohai, as if the woman was some kind of precious and unusual treasure, everyone was cautious.The woman's body is graceful, like a weak willow supporting the wind, although she is covered with a veil, she can't see her face clearly, but her shadowy beauty is like sunlight, through the veil, her peerless beauty cannot be concealed.

Could this be Huiyu? !Song Xiaocheng's heart was beating wildly, Yuan Qingzhu couldn't see all this, and asked in a low voice: "What's the matter?" The badger pulled Song Xiaocheng's skirt and asked her, she hesitated for a moment: "They help this woman out , feels very beautiful, I don't know if she is Huiyu..."

Yuan Qingzhu flashed like a black shadow, and her thorny rattan whip swung into the air: "Junior Sister!" The masked woman raised her head, and there was a voice like fairy music from under the veil, with a trill: "Senior Sister, it's you!" !"

The rattan whip was struck out, never in the direction of Huiyu, but swept towards the armored soldiers with Qingchen Guangxi, they were caught off guard and yelled, stepped back a few steps and shouted orders, and immediately adjusted their formation after a moment of commotion , the spearman raised his weapon and stabbed straight.

"Women be careful!" Song Xiaocheng shouted out of emotion, Yuan Qingzhu seemed to be furious, flicked the cane whip, and the palm of the hand was on fire, and some soldiers were knocked back with a few bangs, but immediately more people rushed up, Shouting: "Protect the beauty!" The scene suddenly became chaotic, Long Aotian pointed at Yuan Qingzhu and shouted, this is a powerful woman, the spearman rushed forward, and the middle-aged woman hurriedly pulled Huiyu to get into the carriage.The shadow of the sword, the shadow of the whip, and the flames, the heroine fights against the soldiers.

"Senior sister, senior sister, don't fight, run away." Huiyu shouted back, and was pushed into the carriage by the middle-aged woman. Yuan Qingzhu was besieged by a group of armored soldiers and could not catch up.Badger bared his teeth anxiously: "I'll help Miss Yuan." Song Xiaocheng grabbed it and said, "You don't want to die, they have sharp spears, and every stab is accurate."

"Then I can't watch Miss Yuan being besieged, Miss Song, why don't you go and save her?" Badger barked anxiously, its black eyes narrowed, "Miss Song, you don't think it's because you're jealous of Miss Yuan Feeling for Huiyu, don't want to save her."

Song Xiaocheng shouted anxiously: "Am I that kind of person? I was also anxious when I saw the heroine being besieged, but I don't know kung fu at all. Wouldn't it be death to rush up... Come with me, we will try to get the carriage back Stop it." She leaned over and wiped two handfuls of lime on the wall, got up and ran on the courtyard wall, and the badger flicked its tail and followed closely behind.

A lot of armored soldiers were dealing with Yuan Qingzhu, the carriage had already galloped out, and a few soldiers followed behind. As soon as the carriage turned a corner, Song Xiaocheng flew up, "The Queen Mother is here!" Two handfuls of lime powder instantly fascinated their eyes. The soldiers never thought of this trick. They stopped and rubbed their eyes while scolding their mothers. There was a layer of white/powder on their eyes. They didn't have Yuan Qingzhu's ability, and the pain was unbearable Follow the carriage.

The coachman slapped the horse and ran away. The middle-aged woman poked her head out of the car window. Song Xiaocheng rushed forward and smeared her face with the remaining lime. I can't control much after getting off the carriage.The middle-aged woman screamed in pain, "Huiyu, come down quickly, Huiyu, your senior sister is here to find you!" Song Xiaocheng shouted, at this time the middle-aged woman grabbed her wrist, the nails were longer than eunuch Liu's , deep into her flesh, Song Xiaocheng fell down in pain, took her out of the car together, and they fought on the ground.After all, Song Xiaocheng was young and strong, so she endured the pain and fought her, yelling.

Badger sprawled to chase the carriage, but after all, it was not as fast as the whipped horse. Looking back, other armored soldiers with weapons were rushing towards Song Xiaocheng. At this time, she was still with the middle-aged The women wrestled, but no one gained the upper hand.Badger wrinkled his fat face, looked at the carriage and stopped chasing him, turned around and ran back, and bit the middle-aged woman's shoulder, her eyes were dazzled and she didn't expect to be bitten, and let go of Song Xiaocheng with a yell.

"Hide away, the armored soldiers are coming." The badger squeaked, and Song Xiaocheng got up covered in dust. Seeing that the armored soldiers' spears were approaching, she grabbed the middle-aged woman by the neck, With a hoarse voice, he shouted: "Whoever dares to come over, I will let the dog bite her to death!" Badger immediately arched his back, his fur stood up, and he grinned ferociously.

"Anyone who dares to touch the empress, take it down!" A leader shouted.

At this time, another group of soldiers rushed up, and Song Xiaocheng was forced to the wall.When she heard what the leader said, she thought of Huiyu as a rare beauty, and eunuch Liu who had retired from Da Nei... her thoughts gradually became clear.She watched the soldiers run up with sweat all over her face, stretched out her foot and secretly kicked the badger: "Little thing, run away!"

"Woooo, I can't leave you, and Miss Yuan." Seeing this situation, Badger was also scared, but he still tried his best to scare them with a fierce appearance.A voice came from the soldiers: "The archers shot her down." There was a commotion in the crowd, Song Xiaocheng's heart rose to her throat, and she looked over from a distance.

Several archers shouted in the distance, and the two brothers Long Aotian and Long Aohai grabbed Yuan Qingzhu. She was shot in the chest and arm, and blood gurgled from the black clothes.Song Xiaocheng was about to cry, even the heroine was arrested, so what should she do?Song Xiaocheng gritted her teeth, and dragged her to the side to hide. After arriving at a corner, she dragged the middle-aged woman with a face full of lime with all her strength and ran away. She ran for hundreds of meters before she felt that she couldn't run anymore. , The soldiers chased after him.Song Xiaocheng's scalp was numb with anxiety, at this time the middle-aged woman took out a handful of gold needles from her waist and pierced Song Xiaocheng's waist at once, she screamed in pain to let go.

She was going to be caught after this, her legs felt weak in her heart, and suddenly a carriage sped past at the intersection.
