Ye Xinran was startled. She looked around and then at the open secret passage. She gritted her teeth and did not go in. Instead, she hid behind the door.
With a creaky sound, the door was pushed open. When the visitor noticed something was wrong in the study, he was startled and quickly stepped back, ready to call for help.
Ye Xinran rushed out quickly, raised his knife, and was about to cut the other person's neck, but when he found that the other person was a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old, he finally couldn't bear it, so he changed to a hand knife and knocked the other person unconscious. Then he quickly closed the door and dragged the little girl to a corner of the room.
She breathed a sigh of relief.
She pursed her lips and looked towards the dark secret passage.
If we don't enter the secret passage at this time, when Cai Heng discovers that his mansion has been robbed, he will definitely strengthen the defenses, and it will be difficult to go in and see what's going on.
Ye Xinran thought that since it was built in such a critical place as the study, there must be some important secrets inside.
She gritted her teeth, took out a flashlight, and walked in quietly.
The door to the secret passage closed automatically behind her.
The first step in the secret passage was a downward staircase. She walked carefully, fearing that she would encounter a hidden weapon. Fortunately, she walked safely along the way. Then she turned a corner and walked for a while.
After turning and walking for a while, I suddenly heard a suppressed cough in front of me.
Ye Xinran paused, obviously realizing that the other party had also noticed her. The coughing stopped!
Ye Xinran frowned. It was probably too late to retreat now. She held the long knife in her hand and slowly approached. The suppressed cough could no longer be suppressed and came out again.
When Ye Xinran saw the light ahead, he put away the flashlight and moved forward slowly.
When she got close enough, holding the long knife in both hands and ready to rush forward, she was stunned when she saw the scene in front of her.
My mood was full of twists and turns for a moment.
The room was brightly lit, with only simple furnishings.
On the small bed against the wall, a woman was sitting, bandaging her own wounds.
She was wearing a white dress stained with blood, her hair was simply tied behind her back, she had no accessories, and she had a white veil on her face, but one could guess her elegance. Her beautiful phoenix eyes were looking at her warily.
Ye Xinran faintly smelled a scent of medicine from the smell of blood.
She was shocked and thought of Vice General Wang's description of Mr. Nanhua in Xiaoyao City. She was secretly shocked! Could it be that she had met Mr. Nanhua?
Why is she here, and injured! She must be in cahoots with Cai Heng! What should we do now! Let’s fight…
She quickly assessed her chances of winning against Mr. Nanhua! Her internal strength had only just reached the fourth level, but she had no idea of Mr. Nanhua's internal strength, which was definitely higher than hers. She estimated that he was on par with Gu Yanming.
If they were to fight, it would be best if both sides were to suffer losses. That would be too unprofitable, and if something happened to her here, Gu Yanming would not be able to find her at all.
No. She couldn't do anything rash. She had to wait until she was stable and find a way out.
Ye Xinran's eyes turned. She suddenly pulled off her black face scarf and walked forward with a worried look on her face.
"Sister! Are you okay?"
Nanhua knew who Ye Xinran was the first time he saw her.
She never thought that Ye Xinran could find this place.
She was injured now, but it was still easy for her to deal with Ye Xinran. But she would have to endure the crazy revenge of Wucheng Palace, which was not worth it.
He was previously targeted by that woman Yu Xiaodie, and she sent countless people to assassinate him in the past few days. Today he was unlucky and was injured. He ran to Cai Huan for shelter in desperation. Unexpectedly, he would meet Ye Xinran. It's really a narrow road for enemies.
Seeing Ye Xinran calling her sister with concern, Nanhua was suspicious! What was she trying to do?
"Sister, is it that scumbag Cai Huan who took advantage of your beauty and forced you to be his concubine?"
Ye Xinran's face was filled with grief.
Nanhua froze and looked at Ye Xinran suspiciously. Did she really not know who she was?
"Sister, are you scared?" Ye Xinran asked with a worried look on her face.
Nanhua saw Ye Xinran's sincere expression and felt that Ye Xinran really didn't know who she was and thought she was an ordinary woman captured by Cai Huan because of her beauty! This was also good, as it would make it easier to hide her identity.
Nanhua lowered his head in grievance, frowning slightly, his eyes reddened, and he looked like he didn't want to say more.
"Don't worry, sister. I'm here! I will definitely rescue you!"
Seeing Mr. Nanhua act according to her script, Ye Xinran secretly breathed a sigh of relief. My life is saved! The next step is to figure out how to get out.
Ye Xinran stood up and looked around the room, wondering if there was another exit. Sure enough, she found it. She ran back to Mr. Nanhua happily.
"Sister, I found another way. Let's go together now! Cai Heng will probably be back soon."
Ye Xinran thought, Mr. Nanhua must know the secret passage here. If he takes her out, they can get out safely. If she doesn't go out, then she will be exposed!
Nanhua froze for a moment, then quickly thought about it and decided that it would be better to maintain the image of a captured woman. So she stood up.
"Okay, let's escape together."
Ye Xinran happily stepped forward to support her, "Sister, let me help you, let's go quickly."
Mr. Nanhua couldn't help but want to avoid it, but Ye Xinran held her tightly. She thought that Ye Xinran probably saw that she was injured and was afraid that she would fall.
Ye Xinran secretly observed Nanhua's expression. Seeing that she wanted to hide, she knew that Mr. Nanhua probably had mysophobia. She was delighted.
The two of them supported each other, and in less than an hour, they crawled out from under the stones behind the remote city wall.
Both were covered in dust.
Mr. Nanhua sneezed loudly.
Ye Xinran couldn't help but hit a few of them.
"Who is it!" The soldiers patrolling near the city wall rushed over when they heard the noise.
Ye Xinran was startled, grabbed Nanhua's hand, and ran all the way using Qinggong, and soon left the soldiers behind.
The two sat on the roof of a house to rest, both of them were exhausted and out of breath.
Ye Xinran looked at Mr. Nanhua and suddenly smiled.
"What are you laughing at?" Nanhua asked suspiciously.
"Xiao and Sister really get along well. It feels like they are running away together, flying together, and they have a feeling of sharing weal and woe!"
Nanhua was startled and pursed his lips. He did not respond.
"Sister, where do you live? I'll take you there?" Ye Xinran asked with concern. "It's not safe for you to be out there alone at night!"
Nanhua thought about it, shook his head and said, "I can't go home, that person will come looking for me! I can't let my family get hurt!"
Ye Xinran's face was moved, "Sister, how about this, I'll take you to find an inn first!"
Nanhua nodded, thinking that this way she could get rid of Ye Xinran quickly. Otherwise, if they stayed together, she was afraid that she would be exposed.
