Chapter 134 Life and Death Crisis
There wasn't much space to hide between the capital's city gate and Shilipo. Liang Jingyao could only rely on his running speed to run out of the city gate. Occasionally, when he had the opportunity to use his lightness skills, he would fly a few times.
But some of the people sent by Emperor Liang were on horseback, so they seized the opportunity to chase him desperately. While chasing, they also used a lasso to lasso Liang Jingyao. Liang Jingyao was in increasing danger!
Gu Mian, who was waiting at Shilipo, felt a sudden throbbing in his heart and kept urging Zhan Hu to pick up Liang Jingyao. "We can't wait any longer. Let's move forward. If there are too many people from Emperor Liang, Jingyao will be in danger! If you keep nagging, Jingyao will be killed by you!"
Zhan Hu was reluctant at first, but became increasingly frightened by Gu Mian's words. He immediately drove his carriage towards the gate of the capital, "Okay! I'll do as you say!"
The wound on Gu Mian's face had not healed yet, so he could not care less and just sat in front of the carriage looking for Liang Jingyao. Finally, when Liang Jingyao was about to be caught by the horsemen, the carriage driven by Zhan Hu arrived!
"Jingyao, grab my hand!" Gu Mian reached out to grab Liang Jingyao's hand.
Zhan Hu stood up and quickly shot three arrows, which directly missed the lasso. Then he shot several more arrows in a row, successfully increasing the distance between himself and the pursuers.
Liang Jingyao was a veteran of the battlefield. He hunched over and ran a few steps. When he heard the arrow tip hit the lasso, he leaped up and jumped directly onto the carriage. "Thank you! It's a great honor for you to come!"
Zhan Hu broke out in a cold sweat. If he hadn't listened to Gu Mian today, his master's life or death would really be in danger!
"Master, Young Master Gu, please go back inside and sit tight. I will take you away even if it costs my life!"
Liang Jingyao sighed. Now he could only fight with all his might, otherwise he would die here!
He looked at Gu Mian carefully and saw that his face was covered with scars and he hadn't had time to treat the wounds. He said sadly: "Was it Xiao Dezi who did it? He must have implicated you! But Xiao Dezi has been killed by me, so it can be regarded as revenge for you!"
Gu Mian shook his head and said, "It doesn't matter. With Old Wine Monster here, what should I be afraid of? Let's hurry back to Yangming Town!"
But today is destined to be a restless day!
As Zhan Liang was desperately trying to drive the carriage, the riders behind him, seeing that the lasso was useless, also took out their bows and arrows and shot at the carriage. But Zhan Hu was no pushover, he drove the carriage while shooting back the arrows, and finally even Liang Jingyao came out to help.
However, Gu Mian did not come out. This was also Liang Jingyao's intention. Liang Jingyao was afraid that the people chasing him would recognize Gu Mian and bring fatal disaster to the Gu family again!
The flying arrows were like rain, so dense that it made people's scalps numb. Gradually, Zhan Hu felt more and more exhausted. He could only pay attention to the flying arrows and could not pay attention to the direction of the carriage.
Liang Jingyao had no choice. If he let Zhan Hu drive the carriage alone, he might be pricked like a hedgehog in the next second!
Now he can only leave it to fate!
Unfortunately, God was not willing to stand on Liang Jingyao's side today. There was a loud "bang" and the carriage hit the tree on the side of the road. Liang Jingyao and Zhan Hu both fell off the cliff. Gu Mian, who was sitting in the carriage, did not fall down with them, but he got anxious and jumped down as well.
When the people chasing them saw the dark cliff, they could only send someone to report to the palace first.
There was a small platform exposed at the bottom of the cliff. Liang Jingyao, Zhan Hu and Gu Mian were lucky enough to fall there. If they had fallen a little further out, they would have been smashed to pieces!
After Gu Mian woke up, he first checked the wounds of Liang Jingyao and Zhan Hu. What shocked him was that both of them were hit by arrows, but he didn't dare to pull out the arrows directly, and he didn't have any life-saving medicine on him. Now he could only wait for Liang Jingyao's men to find out what was wrong and come to him!
The waiting time was agonizing. Until dawn, Gu Mian didn't see anyone coming to rescue him!
"God, can't you open your eyes and look at Jingyao? He's suffering so much, and you still want to kill him! Is this fair? Or do you like that bastard emperor in the palace? God, please save my brother, even if it means sacrificing my life!"
Gu Mian was both angry and anxious, and had no choice but to point at the sky and curse.
It was not known whether God heard what he said, or whether Lin Xiaoyue and Liang Jingyao had a telepathic connection, but the carrier pigeon landed safely next to Gu Mian.
Gu Mian recognized the carrier pigeon. Although he was not sure who released it, he was sure that it was released by someone Liang Jingyao trusted!
He searched back and forth with the pigeon in his arms, and finally found a piece of angelica and two worms. "Bugs? Angelica? What are these for?"
Gu Mian really couldn't figure it out, so he could only think of a way to wake up Liang Jingyao, "Jingyao, wake up! This is your secret pigeon. I can't understand what's inside. Can it save your lives?"
But Liang Jingyao's throat was almost swollen from being beaten by Gu Mian, but he still didn't wake up. Gu Mian had no choice but to give it a try. He fed each of them a worm, and then broke a piece of angelica into two pieces and stuffed them into Liang Jingyao and Zhan Hu's mouths.
After a while, a miracle happened!
Liang Jingyao's pale face slowly regained color, and he weakly opened his eyes. "A Mian, are you okay? Where are we now?"
Gu Mian finally felt relieved and said, "I'm fine, but you and Zhan Hu were unconscious for a long time. If it weren't for this carrier pigeon, I'm afraid you would have died! Now we are on a huge rock protruding from the cliff. Unfortunately, I only have a dagger, so it's impossible for me to escape!"
Liang Jingyao propped himself up and sat up. He first checked Zhan Hu's breath. After confirming that he was okay, he leaned against the cliff and asked, "Did the carrier pigeon bring anything?"
Gu Mian nodded and said, "Yes, a piece of angelica and two worms. I don't know what these are for, and they won't wake you up, so I'll just feed you half each. I don't think your people will harm you!"
Liang Jingyao knew that the carrier pigeon was a gift from him to Lin Xiaoyue, and he immediately guessed that Lin Xiaoyue was anxious because she couldn't see him and went back. "Yes, they are all good things from the old wine monster. I really can't live without them."
As he spoke, Liang Jingyao glanced at the arrow stuck in his body. He reached out and broke off half of the tail, then held the carrier pigeon in his hand. "Amian, I don't have the strength right now. Tear off a piece of cloth, bite your finger, and write four words on it: Cliff outside the city! My people will come to rescue us!"
Gu Mian nodded and said, "Okay, I'll write it right away!"
As he spoke, he tore off a small piece of white cloth and wrote on it what Liang Jingyao said. Then he tied the cloth to the pigeon's legs and said, "Go!"
The carrier pigeon regained its freedom and flew into the sky with flapping wings.
Gu Mian stared at the azure sky. For the first time, he couldn't feel the peace and spaciousness of his heart. "Jing Yao, do you think the carrier pigeon can reach Old Monstrous Drunkenness? Are Emperor Liang's men still on the edge of the cliff?"
