Chapter 147 Goodbye, Sister
The sharp arrow was forced to stop a foot away.
Blood was flowing from the gaps between the fingers that were holding the arrow.
At that moment, the wind had stopped and everything in the world seemed to be petrified. Only Wen Wan blinked slightly and watched a drop of blood fall on the white fox fur.
The blood belonged to Chen Yu, and the fox fur stained with blood belonged to Wen En.
Both men reacted quickly. Shen Yu grabbed the arrow with his bare hands, and Wen En bent over and hugged Wen Wan, both trying their best to protect her in their own way.
At that moment, Wen Wan's heart skipped a beat, and then began beating violently again like crazy.
The surging emotions collided with her soul, and the danger of life and death became the poison that fueled these emotions.
A person she loves irresistibly, a relative who breaks into her new life, both of them are too important to her.
"Are you stupid?"
Wen Wan simply couldn't bear to think about it. If they made any mistake in their actions, they would lose their lives here.
Shen Yu threw away the arrow in his hand, pulled her arm to pull her up from Wen En's arms, raised his hand and poked her in the middle of the eyebrows again.
"You're stupid. You can't even dodge an arrow."
Without waiting for her to retort, he protected her behind him and drew the soft sword from his waist to fend off the attacks of the surrounding men in black.
Wen En's arms were empty, and he looked at Shen Yu with a gloomy face. He moved his lips, but in the end he said nothing.
The guards immediately gathered around Wen En. As the prince of Mobei, he didn't need to do anything himself as long as the assassin didn't get close.
The men in black who suddenly rushed out attacked ruthlessly. In just a short while, most of the palace servants who came to pray were killed or injured.
But the palace people were not the target of the men in black. The main force of the men in black were almost all heading towards Winn. Around him, groups of men in black rushed towards him.
Wen En stood among the guards, looked at Wen Wan from a distance, and shouted loudly.
"elder sister."
When Wen Wan turned around, she saw Wen En throwing a pitch-black object at her.
She took it with both hands and found that it was the small black stone he had held when he prayed earlier.
She was puzzled and looked up again, only to see Wen En signing with a sad smile.
When they were in the border town, in order to communicate with the mute woman, everyone in the yard knew some sign language. Wen En was extremely smart and learned things quickly. Although he stayed there for a shorter time than Wen Wan, he learned more sign language than Wen Wan.
He used sign language to sign:
"Take the path southeast down the mountain. Someone will pick you up and lead you out of Mobei."
"Goodbye, sister."
"Sister..." When he gestured here, he paused, as if hesitating about something.
A man in black rushed into the circle of guards, and when his knife was about to touch Winn, he was stabbed in the heart by the guard next to him.
Blocked by the man in black, Wen Wan didn't see clearly the last move Wen En made.
It seems that...
I love you?
But Wen Wan was not sure. When she wanted to look up again, Wen En had already put down his hands.
Time was running out and she didn't have any extra time to think. While Shen Yu was resisting the man in black, Wen Wan told Shen Yu the information given by Wen En.
Shen Yu responded and began to fight and retreat, heading towards the path in the southeast direction.
To the men in black, a slave and a gardener were not important, so only two men in black chased them.
Shen Yu drew his sword decisively, and after killing the man in black with two swords, he grabbed a warhorse and galloped away with Wen Wan.
Wen Wan hugged Shen Yu's waist and looked back when she left the halfway point of the mountain.
Winn's figure was seen disappearing in the encirclement of the men in black, becoming smaller and smaller.
She raised her hand to wipe away the tears that had flowed down her face, and said to Shen Yu with a sob:
"A Chai, if...if one day, the Duan Dynasty's army breaks through the Mobei Royal Court, can you...not hurt him?"
Shen Yu heard her voice with tears in it, hesitated for a moment, and said in a rough voice: "I'll try my best."
He couldn't make her a promise he wasn't sure he could keep.
But for her, he would try his best.

The two men and the horse ran for half a cup of tea, and sure enough, they saw a horse parked at the fork in the road ahead.
The man on horseback was wearing a black robe, revealing only a pair of eyes. His back was very straight, and he was carrying a package behind him. When he saw Shen Yu and Wen Wan, the man on horseback waved his hands excitedly.
"Miss Xiaowan!"
"Captain...Captain Zhou!"
Wen Wan was startled and immediately recognized the voice.
She shook Shen Yu's arm excitedly, "It's Agui! Did you hear that? It's Agui!"
Chen Yu didn't expect that the person who was waiting here to pick him and Wen Wan according to Wen En was actually Agui who had been missing for a long time.
They all thought that Agui had died at the hands of the Mobei people long ago, but unexpectedly, he was still alive!
This may be the biggest gain of their trip to Mobei.
Agui rode his horse to meet him, and Shen Yu also tightened the reins and stopped.
The two men raised their hands and bumped fists, without any unnecessary words of greeting.
Because they both knew that as long as they were alive, they would be brothers for the rest of their lives.
Agui led the way, "This is not the place to talk, let's talk while we walk."
Agui seemed to be very familiar with the surrounding terrain. After leading them through many small paths, they successfully entered the grassland.
When it got dark, Agui took the package off his horse and set up camp.
He skillfully lit the bonfire and took out the food he had prepared in advance.
An exquisite food box was opened, revealing dry food, snacks and treats.
Wen Wan picked up a candied fruit, eyes full of shock, "Agui, did you prepare all this?"
Ah Gui smiled innocently, "I'm not that attentive. These were prepared by Wen En... no, the young prince of Mobei, Yu Qiting. They're all your favorite snacks. He said that after escaping death, you should have something sweet."
When Wen En was mentioned, Wen Wan's eyes darkened.
"He saved you?"
Agui nodded. "Yes. I was taken as a slave and was badly injured. The Mobei people thought I was dying, so they threw me on the street to feed the stray dogs. It was Wen En's carriage that passed by and recognized me."
Just a few words are enough to show how thrilling the situation was at that time.
Agui continued, "After he saved me, he placed me in a yard to recuperate. He would occasionally come to see me and chat with me, and the chats were..."
He glanced guiltily in the direction of Shen Yu, and when he saw the general's face darken, he actually didn't dare to continue.
Wen Wan suddenly thought of something and said with a smile, "Are you talking about me?"
"Yes." Ah Gui nodded with gritted teeth. "He said the girl once told him that my life was hard and asked him to be kind to me. So he found the best doctor and used the most expensive herbs to save my life from the hands of the King of Hell."
