Chapter 316 Which No. 1 Assassin?
The capital's army was defeated repeatedly by the Liaocheng army, which made Emperor Wei Ling, who was in the capital, very angry and he thought of some evil ways.
While the two armies were fighting in the front, Emperor Ling of Wei secretly sent scouts to sneak into the rear of Liaocheng, preparing to take Shi Li away and cut off the enemy's source of fire.
however--
Emperor Ling of Wei came to the throne in an illicit way, and many members of the royal family in the imperial capital were not truly submissive to him.
The people lying on the ground in front of Shi Li were all sent by the opposition in the imperial capital.
Their purpose was the opposite of that of Emperor Wei Ling. They wanted to kill Shi Li directly and completely intensify the conflict between the imperial capital and Liaocheng so that they could benefit from it.
The female owner of the jewelry store was also one of the scouts sent out by the imperial capital. She ignored the initial shock and immediately reacted. She carried Shi Li on her shoulders and tried to escape.
The opposition in the imperial capital has been lurking here for a long time and is well prepared.
As soon as the female shopkeeper's feet moved, a cold arrow shot out from behind and hit her in the vest.
Shi Li was thrown out directly, fell to the ground, and rolled in the fallen leaves.
Not knowing what was going on, she didn't dare to act rashly and lay on the ground motionless.
He watched the female shopkeeper slowly fall to the ground not far away, his eyes widened.
Since coming to this world, she has seen too many scenes like this.
It's not numb, but it's not far from it.
Shi Li did not scream, but remained calm and motionless, thinking quickly about how to save her life next.
The comments on the forum were also actively giving her advice.
[Anchor! No matter who comes to catch you, don't struggle! As long as you have the green mountains, you will never run out of firewood! ]
[Right, right, right! You are powerless, this is no joke~]
[There is hope only when you are alive! As long as the other party doesn't want to kill you immediately, we can survive! ]
For the first time, Shi Li discovered that the people in her group, like her, valued life more than anything else.
She was very obedient and didn't move.
There is only the sound of wind in my ears.
After waiting for a long time, no one paid any attention to her.
Just as Shi Li was feeling more and more strange and uneasy, she heard a familiar voice.
woo-
It didn't look like a human, but rather some kind of animal, an animal she was very familiar with that liked to step on flowers.
Shi Li's breathing was slightly choked, and she was afraid that she was wrong, so she didn't dare to get up and look back.
[Anchor! You are saved! ]
[Woo woo woo, here he comes! Here he comes! ]
【He really came!!!】
The barrage of comments was much more confident than her and had already started a new round of shouting.
Shi Li's face turned pale and she pursed her lips subconsciously.
Then she smelled a strange smell, as if something was burnt nearby.
He couldn't hold it in any longer and sat up suddenly with his hands on the ground.
Sure enough, there was a fire not far away.
I don't know who lit a pile of dead leaves not far away. The ground was covered with dry fallen leaves, and the fire spread quickly.
The most dazzling thing in Shi Li's eyes was the person standing next to the fire.
She was dressed in a fluttering red dress, which fluttered in the autumn wind, more dazzling than flames. There was a familiar smile on her cold and beautiful face, and a bunch of torches were pinched between her slender fingers.
Seeing Shi Li sitting up, Xuan Yi pointed the torch at her and said in a scattered voice, "Come here."
Shi Li is very obedient.
In fact, I was too obedient.
She stood up in a hurry, lifted up her skirt with both hands and ran towards him.
The sky-blue silk skirt was like ripples in the lake, passing over the fallen leaves and flying towards the bright red.
Without fear, like a weary bird returning to its nest.
Then, she rushed directly into Xuan Yi's arms and hugged his waist tightly.
The movement was so fast that the first assassin had no time to dodge.
Xuan Yi lowered his head and looked at the girl's slightly trembling hair. Her crow-feather-like hair looked like a converging arc of light.
He curled his lips lightly, threw the torch aside, and gently placed his hands on her waist.
"Are you scared?"
A light voice came into Shi Li's ears.
Shi Li looked up in response, looked at Xuan Yi with full eyes, and nodded without hesitation, "Scared."
"Ah."
Xuan Yi chuckled.
He thought that the strong-willed little princess would not admit it.
But soon, Shi Li's next words broke his calmness.
"I'm afraid you won't be able to save me in time."
Shi Li looked at Xuan Yi steadily, her dark eyes were like two silent cold stars in the midnight.
Xuan Yi was stunned, then he laughed after a moment. He raised his hand, picked up Shi Li and put her on Axue's back, then he took the reins and mounted the horse.
"Let's go, I'll take you back."
Shi Li sat on the horse, and in a trance she seemed to have returned to the past.
But it’s different from the past.
Axue had no awareness that animals are afraid of fire. She leisurely carried the two of them through the sea of fire and corpses.
"Xuan Yi."
"Ok?"
"Wait a month, can you take me away?"
"Oh, where do you want to go?"
"You decide."
"Well, my dear little princess."
