Chapter 131 Escape
Minglan almost couldn't help but slap him.
"Don't be lustful and bold. These two must be left for Brother Xu to taste first. Wait a minute!"
The soldier withdrew his hand, spat, and muttered in dissatisfaction. "Where's Brother Xu?"
"He went down the mountain with Lao Liu and Xiao Jiu to check the situation."
"What's there to check? The important thing is to get the job done quickly!"
"What do you know? We're just pawns. If we really get rid of these two people, and the other party follows the clues to find us, can the prince still protect us? We must make sure that no one follows us. Only when we are safe can we do what the princess has asked us to do. You better be careful!"
"Okay, you stay here, I'm going out to pee!"
The man went out, and the man in the room thought that he couldn't get rid of the two people right away. He felt a little annoyed as he could only watch and not eat, so he went out to chat with the person guarding the door.
Minglan carefully felt around and found no one else in the room, then she opened her eyes. She looked at the face of the girl next to her in the moonlight. She looked familiar, but she couldn't tell who she was. She must be someone who had a problem with the Lord of Jiacheng County.
Minglan covered her mouth and pinched her knuckles hard. After a while, the girl woke up slowly. When she woke up, she wanted to scream, but fortunately Minglan covered her mouth tightly so that no sound could be leaked out.
The girl's wide eyes were filled with fear. She was knocked unconscious and taken away in the jewelry shop. When she opened her eyes, she saw nothing but darkness, which made her even more scared.
Minglan didn't dare to make a sound, so she could only comfort her with her hands to calm her down. Seeing that her eyes could focus, Minglan made a "huh" gesture to her before letting go of her mouth.
In the moonlight, Minglan looked around the thatched house. It was indeed as the personal soldier said, with drafts everywhere. Looking at the hole in the wall, Minglan's eyes lit up.
She leaned over and took out a dagger from her boots with great effort, and slowly cut the rope of the girl. The girl also cooperated with her and did the same to cut the rope tied around Minglan.
After the two of them untied themselves, they gently moved their hands and feet. Minglan poked her head out and saw the two people outside the door were still chatting, so she pulled the girl and slowly climbed out of a large hole in the wall.
After leaving the hut, the two still dared not make any noise, and moved lightly to the other side of the hut. After walking for a distance, they saw that there was no movement in the hut, so they bravely ran.
The girl asked Minglan while running, trembling, "Where are we going?"
"I don't know, let's run first! Anyway, it's better than falling into their hands!" The girl was unconscious and didn't hear what they said, but Minglan was awake and heard every word of their words. The chief of Jiacheng County wanted them to live a life worse than death.
Minglan had learned some kung fu and often played polo, so her physical strength was better than that of ordinary girls. She didn't feel tired even when running on the mountain. But the girl was spoiled. She wanted to get out of that hellhole as soon as possible, so she followed Minglan. But after running for
a while, she had no strength left. Minglan looked back and saw that she was far behind her. She turned back and pulled her to run, "We can't stop. They will soon find out that we ran away. They will definitely chase us. If we don't run, we will be worse than death!"
Just as Minglan expected, after Xiaojie's personal soldier came back, he saw the other two standing outside the door chatting, so he went in to see if the two were awake. As a result, there was no one in the house. He lit the fire and saw the cut rope on the ground.
"Fuck! Lao Wu, Lao Ba, I told you to watch the person in the house, but you didn't even know that the person was gone!"
The two people outside the door were stunned for a moment, rushed into the house to see, and the person was indeed gone. The two panicked.
"They...how did they run away? We have been guarding outside the door!"
The personal soldier who came in first looked around the thatched house and felt something was wrong. He saw a pile of straw there. He pushed aside the straw and a big hole appeared in front of them. Several people also climbed out along the big hole and saw traces of trampled grass around them.
"Hurry up! Two little girls, you can't run fast!"
The three of them followed the traces of Minglan and the others' escape. The three of them had fought on the battlefield and were men, so they had natural advantages. It didn't take long for them to see the two figures running in front.
"Damn little girls! Stop! Wait until I catch you, and then I'll show you how I deal with you!" The fifth man saw that he had lost the people and it took him a lot of effort to catch up with the two people. He was naturally furious.
Minglan and the girl had already heard the noise behind them, but they didn't dare to stop and were running forward desperately. Hearing Lao Wu's threat, Minglan did not respond, but the girl staggered and fell down in fear.
Minglan had been pulling her, but was also pulled down by her.
Lao Wu saw the two people fall, laughed excitedly, accelerated and passed the other two bodyguards and rushed towards Minglan and the others, saying dirty words.
Minglan consumed too much energy, and after falling to the ground, she didn't have the strength to get up again. Looking at the approaching man, Minglan adjusted her posture, and when the man got closer to her, she shot an arrow from her sleeve, hitting the man's throat, and the man fell down.
The two men behind saw Lao Wu rushing over, and thought that he could handle the two girls by himself, so they slowed down their pace and let him do it. But when the sound of a sword piercing the air was heard, Lao Wu fell down. The two men first lay down, and when there was no sound, they stood up and looked around, but they didn't find anyone else. It must be the imperial guards chasing them!
The two men quickened their pace and ran to the fallen Lao Wu, and found that he was killed by an arrow. Lao Ba looked at Minglan and the others who stood up and ran away with a vicious look, and let out a beast-like roar, chasing after them heroically.
"They have arrows in their hands, and their archery skills are extremely accurate, don't be impulsive!"
The furious man didn't hear anything, he rushed straight towards the two of them, thinking that speed could break all laws.
Minglan had been running with the girl. She knew someone was chasing them, but she didn't look back. She had observed that in order to pretend to be thieves, the personal soldiers of Prince Yong's Mansion didn't carry guns and bows and arrows, only swords, and they couldn't kill them at a long distance.
However, the difference in physical strength made the distance between them shorter and shorter. Minglan suddenly stopped, stabilized her body, and threw something at the opponent. The opponent thought it was an arrow and quickly dodged to the side. It was not a sharp arrow. Something exploded in the air with a slight sound, followed by a pungent smell that enveloped Lao Ba, irritating him so much that he couldn't open his eyes and had difficulty breathing.
Minglan seized the opportunity and shot an arrow, hitting Lao Ba in the throat again, and Lao Ba fell down.
The soldier who fell behind was the fourth brother. He was so angry that he could no longer remain calm as he watched his brothers die one after another
