Chapter 117 Never seen before!
Dark clouds were floating in the silent night sky, the moon was obscured, and the valley was covered in darkness.
Jiang Yuzhu strode towards the single-plank bridge with big strides, with the attitude of "the wind is whistling and the Yishui River is cold, and the hero will never return once he leaves."
Seeing Jiang Yuzhu move, the man in black let out a sneering laugh.
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 gossiper who goes around gossiping about other people, 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 to sway from side to side due to her unstable center of gravity.
If someone is afraid of heights, he would probably faint from fright.
Jiang Yuzhu looked pale. She tried to keep her balance. 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 won't be missing from you."
The barbarian thought about it carefully and decided that he would kick the two women who were in the way off the single-plank bridge and send them to heaven once he got the jade pendant.
He didn't care at all and, as Jiang Yuzhu said, rudely took out the handkerchief that Zhao Fendie had stuffed in her mouth.
Zhao Fendie had been kept in a cage, with disheveled hair and bloodshot eyes.
The barbarians kidnapped her from the bun shop and tortured her to extract 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 was familiar with. She didn't expect the barbarian to go to so much trouble and involve Jiang Yuzhu.
Zhao Fendie's body was shaking violently, and every breath she took made her feel extremely painful. At this moment, she had a chance to catch her breath, and she cried out in a sharp voice: "Yuzhu, don't come over, don't die for me in vain, they don't intend to leave anyone alive!"
The transaction was conducted on the 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 are very good, don't worry about your reputation!"
"Yuzhu, you are my sister Zhao Fendie for life. In the next life and the next life, we will always be sisters!"
"Yuzhu, you have to 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 tilted her body and was about to jump into the valley.
Jiang Yuzhu stared at this scene and said heartbreakingly: "Fendie, no, no!"
Jiang Yuzhu has overcome her fear to save people and does not want her good sister to give up just like that, even for her!
At a critical moment, the black-clad man behind noticed Zhao Fendie's movements, raised his hand to grab her, slapped her and said, "You bitch, you don't want to drink my toast, so you're acting like a sister in love in front of me. Without the jade token today, you will definitely 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 before they have to withdraw.
"Let me go!"
Zhao Fendie resisted desperately, but she didn't have the strength to do it.
It’s good to be alive.
Jiang Yuzhu let out a long breath, her eyes misty, and said faintly: "Fendie, no matter how difficult it is, you can't give up on yourself. This is what you promised me at the beginning. 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 bunch of people serving her, play mahjong, listen to operas every day, and occasionally do some fitness exercises.
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 a life-and-death crisis can understand how rare this kind of affection is.
Even brothers who fight together in battle would not easily turn their backs on each other, simply because they lack trust.
Women like Jiang Yuzhu in the harem were obviously extremely 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 did not 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 her help immediately.
At the same time, the man in black on the opposite side watched the purse in Jiang Yuzhu's hand form a parabola and fall straight down the valley.
Below is a deep pool with fast-flowing water. If you fall in, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"damn it!"
The man in black cursed loudly, his eyes were cold as if he was looking at a dead person, and he rushed towards Jiang Yuzhu and Zhao Fendie with a dagger in his hand.
Just after taking a few steps, a dagger flashed with light and pierced into the chest of the man in black with a puff.
On the opposite side, a group of men in black could see clearly that Xie Zhao first threw a dagger in the air, and then shot an arrow at the dagger, using the force to change the direction of the dagger and accurately pierced the chest of the man in black.
They had never seen such amazing archery skills!
Seeing this, Zhao Fendie suddenly realized and burst into tears, "Yuzhu, I'm sorry. You were so good to me, but I had no conscience. I gave the jade token to Wei Jing!"
Regardless of whether she can survive today, Zhao Fendie does not want to implicate Jiang Yuzhu again, so she must find someone to take the blame.
Who is more suitable than Wei Jing?
Seeing Xie Zhao and others rushing onto the single-plank bridge one after another, the man in black reacted and shouted, "Cut off the single-plank bridge and send them on their way together!"
At this time, Jiang Yuzhu had tied the string around Zhao Fendie's feet and said with a wink: "Fendie, even if you give the jade token to Wei Jing, I won't bother with you. You and I will definitely be safe!"
The rope was limited and Zhao Fendie couldn't walk far. As a matter of urgency, Jiang Yuzhu had no choice but to turn around and run back with big strides. The closer she was to the other side, the safer she would be.
Soon, there was a loud snap and the single-plank bridge broke.
"Yuzhu, hold out your hand!"
At the critical moment, Xie Zhao stretched out his hand, his expression calm and determined.
Zhao Fendie was safe, Jiang Yuzhu had no worries and clasped her hands with Xie Zhao.
It’s a pity that the rope of the single-plank bridge was weathered over the years and could not withstand the heavy weight, so it broke in the middle again.
Almost without any warning, Xie Zhao held Jiang Yuzhu in his arms, and the two of them continued to fall together.
