"Someone is approaching!" There was a rustling sound outside. The injured man subconsciously protected the woman and child behind him, staring at the door with sharp eyes.
The woman quickly held the child in her arms, very calm and collected. Her face did not show the panic that an ordinary woman in danger would have. Even her plain clothes could not conceal her noble aura.
The sounds outside became clearer and clearer, and the woman whispered to the man:
"Achuan, if mother and I can't escape this disaster, you don't have to worry about me. As long as we are not dragging you down, you will definitely be able to leave alive."
The man looked at the woman, his eyes filled with hidden affection. "Yue'er, I came here to save you. I only wish to keep you safe, and I don't care about my own life!"
These people are exactly who Sikong Zhan and the others are looking for. The injured man is Gu Chuan, the one guarding the door is Xie Chang, and the woman is Queen Rong Yue of Beijiang, and the little boy is naturally Prince Tan Taiyu of Beijiang.
However, Guchuan's current appearance is very different from his previous image of an old man. Not only has his hair turned from white to black, but his face has also changed from the weathered look to the handsome and elegant look. His handsomeness is actually no less than that of Xiang Yuanqing, who has always maintained himself well.
The officers and soldiers outside searched very carefully, leaving no corner untouched. The house where Guchuan and his men lived was eventually exposed, and the two groups fought again.
There were few people on Guchuan's side to begin with, and they were all injured. Even if Guchuan was good at martial arts, he could not fight four people with two fists, and he had to protect others as well, so he was soon injured again.
"Achuan, don't worry about me, just go! If there is an afterlife, I will definitely repay your kindness! Let's go!" The woman held Tan Tai Yu in one hand and held the sword in the other. Every move and every style she made was extremely exquisite. Every sword strike would kill an officer or soldier. Her kung fu was not much worse than Guchuan's!
Gu Chuan and Rong Yue stood back to back, protecting Tan Taiyu tightly in the middle. "Yue'er, I will never leave. Even if you don't care about yourself, you should at least care about the child, right? Today, whether it's life or death, we are together!"
"Okay, we'll share life and death together!" Rong Yue said no more and swung the sword in his hand even faster.
However, no matter how fast they killed, the officers and soldiers who rushed over after hearing the news were even faster!
The guards were all dead or wounded, and now there were only four people left in the yard: Guchuan, Rongyue, Tan Taiyu, and Xie Chang. The three of them formed a circle, protecting Tan Taiyu firmly in the middle. The officers and soldiers had surrounded them, and one after another came forward and slashed at them with knives, giving them no time to breathe.
There were only three of them, with six hands, and they were finally exhausted and didn't even have the strength to lift their swords.
Seeing the soldier's knife slashing towards her, Rong Yue smiled sadly and looked at the sword that was about to end her life in despair. Looking back on her life, a life of being used as a chess piece, and looking at the man beside her who was fighting for her, she finally felt regret.
If she had resisted and refused to marry into the royal family of Beijiang, perhaps...
But it's too late, everything is too late. Even if she doesn't marry him, can she, a chess piece, really be free?
Besides, everything was her own choice. Even if she died here today, it would be her own fault. But how could she have deserved to have a man love and care for her so much before she died? How could she bear to let him die with her?
"Achuan, take Yu'er and go!" Rong Yue used up the last of her strength to push Tan Taiyu to Guchuan's side, and used her body to block the sword that was slashing towards Guchuan. "Take good care of Yu'er!"
"Yue'er, don't!" Guchuan didn't expect Rongyue to be so determined to protect him with her body. He quickly hugged her and switched positions with her, protecting them mother and son firmly under his body - even if he was going to die, he should go to the underworld first to explore the way for his Yue'er.
"If you dare touch my people, you will die!" A powerful sword force descended from the sky and shattered the swords that were swung towards Furukawa and the others!
Sikong Zhan released his left hand that was holding Lin Jinghan, and quickly swept his sword across. Countless soldiers flew out like dumplings and were killed instantly!
What a close call! Just a tiny bit! He was so close to losing his only master! Just now, they had followed the signs of the Jingnan Palace and heard the fighting from afar. He quickly hugged Lin Jinghan and flew over. Finally, they were still in time to save his old man.
"You are seriously injured. Sit down quickly and I will treat you." Lin Jinghan didn't even look at the officers and soldiers surrounding them, and hurriedly asked the wounded to sit down.
When she took a look, she was dumbfounded: wow, four people, she didn't recognize any of them! Where is Senior Gu?
"Girl, hurry up and heal Yue'er first!" Gu Chuan said, grabbing Lin Jinghan's hand.
This voice is so familiar! Lin Jinghan looked at him blankly and asked uncertainly:
"Senior Gu, is that you?"
The man in front of him had jet-black hair that was tied up meticulously. Even the blood all over his body could not conceal the charm of a mature man. The most important thing was that his face looked to be in his twenties. Although his eyebrows and features were very similar to Furukawa's, how could a person regain youth?
"Ahem, it's me, girl, hurry up and save him!" Furukawa then remembered that his appearance had changed and he turned back to his original appearance. This was something the little girl had never seen before, no wonder she was surprised.
Although Lin Jinghan had a lot of questions, she also knew that the situation was urgent, so she grabbed Rongyue's hand without saying a word.
"I'm fine. You treat Achuan first." Rongyue rejected Lin Jinghan's kindness.
Lin Jinghan saw clearly that the two of them were willing to die for each other just now. At this moment, the two of them were still so humble. Lin Jinghan didn't want to waste time and immediately frowned.
"If you have the time to be humble, you might as well think carefully about what we should do next."
Then he grabbed Rongyue's hand without saying a word, checked, prescribed medicine, and gave her an acupuncture, all in one go.
Then it was Gu Chuan, then Xie Chang, and finally the little boy Tan Tai Yu who had no external injuries on his body.
Tan Taiyu was very well behaved and let Lin Jinghan examine him. He didn't cry or make a fuss when the injection was given, and he even politely said thank you to her, sister, afterward.
Who doesn't like a well-behaved little boy? Lin Jinghan took out some dry food from her bag and gave it to Tan Taiyu with a smile, "Be good, eat well."
Then he gave the dry food to the other three people.
"Thank you, Princess!"
Xie Chang struggled to salute, but was stopped by Lin Jinghan.
"Don't move, I just bandaged it. You all should recover quickly. You can't let my prince fight so many people alone and then carry you on his back, right?"
As she spoke, she took out the bottles and jars given to her by her master, fed each of the four people an antidote, then took out a bottle of powder and sprinkled it directly towards the place where there were the most people.
