Dark clouds moved in the silent night sky, obscuring the moon and covering the valley in darkness.
Jiang Yuzhu strode towards the single-plank bridge with an attitude of "the wind is whistling and the Yi River is cold, and the hero will never return once he leaves."
Seeing Jiang Yuzhu move, the man in black laughed.
Then he carried Zhao Fendie onto the single-plank bridge. In order to hide his figure, the man in black stood behind Zhao Fendie and used her as a human shield.
After walking more than ten meters, Jiang Yuzhu stopped.
Very good, the hem of her skirt blocked the thin rope around her ankles, and the barbarian was far away and could not notice the movement on the ground for the time being.
Seeing this, Manzi also stopped and said with a look of surprise, "Madam Xie, why don't you leave? Are you regretting it?"
He wanted to say a few more words, but when he thought of being described as a gossipy woman who gossiped about other people's affairs, he swallowed the rest of his words.
There were only wooden planks on the single-plank bridge besides ropes, and Jiang Yuzhu had to hold on to both sides, causing her unstable center of gravity to sway from side to side.
If someone is a little afraid of heights, he would probably faint from fright.
Jiang Yuzhu's face was pale. She tried her best to steady her center of gravity. She took a deep breath and said, "Take the handkerchief out of Fendie's mouth. At least let her breathe more smoothly. Don't worry, the things will be fine."
The barbarian thought carefully and decided that once he got the jade pendant, he would kick the two women who were in the way off the single-plank bridge and send them to heaven.
He didn't care at all and, as Jiang Yuzhu said, rudely took out the handkerchief that Zhao Fendie had blocked her mouth with.
Zhao Fendie had been locked in a cage, with disheveled hair and bloodshot eyes.
The barbarians kidnapped her from the bun shop and tortured her to force her to reveal the whereabouts of the jade token.
Zhao Fendie couldn't remember which jade token it was, and just said that she was giving it to someone she knew well. She didn't expect the barbarian to go to such great lengths to involve Jiang Yuzhu.
Zhao Fendie's body trembled violently, each breath causing her immense pain. With a moment's respite, she cried out in a shrill voice, "Yuzhu, don't come over here! Don't die for me in vain! They don't intend to leave anyone alive!"
The transaction was conducted on a single-plank bridge, a deadly trap set by the barbarians.
Zhao Fendie smiled sadly. She had no regrets in this life.
Although she was abandoned by the Zhao family in the face of interests, she has the strongest sisterhood in the world.
Jiang Yuzhu came here at the risk of her life and allowed herself to be manipulated just to protect her. Zhao Fendie also wanted to use her last bit of strength to protect her sisters.
"Yuzhu, you're fine. Don't worry about your reputation!"
"Yuzhu, you are my lifelong sister, Zhao Fendie. In the next life and the next, we will always be sisters!"
"Yuzhu, you must live well and take my share..."
Zhao Fendie's eyes were red. She knew that if she didn't die, Jiang Yuzhu would not give up on her.
When they reached the middle of the bridge, Xie Zhao and Princess Yutan were also helpless.
On the single-plank bridge, the cold wind from the valley blew Zhao Fendie's dress up and down. She wiped the dust on her cheeks with her sleeve and smiled brightly.
Without any warning, Zhao Fendie's body tilted and she was about to jump into the valley.
Jiang Yuzhu stared at the scene intently, and said heartbreakingly, "Fendie, no, no!"
Jiang Yuzhu has overcome her fear to save people, and she doesn't want her good sister to give up just like that, even for her!
At the critical moment, the man in black behind noticed Zhao Fendie's movements, raised his hand to grab her, slapped her in the face and said, "You bitch, you don't accept my toast and drink the wine, and you are acting like a sister in front of me. Without the jade token today, you will die!"
As he spoke, the man in black grabbed Zhao Fendie's neck and quickened his pace.
None of the people coming from the opposite side are vegetarians. They can only hold out for two hours and then have to withdraw.
"Let me go!"
Zhao Fendie resisted desperately, but she didn't have the strength to do so.
It’s good to be alive.
Jiang Yuzhu let out a long breath, her eyes filled with mist, and said quietly, "Fendie, no matter how difficult it is, you can't give up on yourself. This is what you promised me. Don't you want to keep your promise?"
The two sisters agreed that if they had no children, they would kick the man out and live happily together in their old age.
Jiang Yuzhu has made plans to have a group of people serving her, play mahjong, listen to operas every day, and occasionally exercise.
At the critical moment of life and death, the two sisters only thought about each other, which made Princess Yutan cry.
Only those who are truly in life-and-death crisis can understand how rare this kind of affection is.
Even brothers who fight together in the battlefield will not easily turn their backs on each other, simply because they do not trust each other enough.
Women like Jiang Yuzhu in the harem were obviously very scared, but they did not hesitate.
Xie Zhao couldn't help but be moved, but there was a slight bitterness in his heart. He had also experienced the feeling of being protected behind his wife.
At the hunting ground, Jiang Yuzhu bandaged him and took the initiative to admit that the dagger that killed Jia Xinglin was hers.
Mother Shen is right. If I don’t wake up soon, I may never get married.
On the single-plank bridge, Jiang Yuzhu continued to move forward, just to calm the man in black.
Every time I took a step, I didn't feel any tension under my feet because the rope was long enough.
When they reached the middle of the bridge, Jiang Yuzhu was only ten meters away from Zhao Fendie.
"Thank you, Madam. Please bring the things over."
The man in black didn't intend to leave, but demanded sharply.
Jiang Yuzhu pretended to be afraid, and said with a trembling voice, "Okay, you have to keep your word!"
As she spoke, Jiang Yuzhu took a step forward, but was suddenly tripped by the hem of her skirt.
"Yuzhu, are you okay?"
Jiang Yuzhu was injured, and Zhao Fendie instinctively staggered over and offered help immediately.
At the same time, the man in black opposite watched the purse in Jiang Yuzhu's hand form a parabola and fall straight down the valley.
