Chapter 281 Are You Crazy?
Ah Man's round face was filled with a murderous look. She hesitated for a long time and said, "Miss, I will hold them back, and you find a way to escape."
Let the young lady leave alone, maybe there is still a glimmer of hope.
If they were together, they would be like meat on the chopping board.
Ah Man said this, and without waiting for Lu Xiang to speak, he whipped the horse's butt hard, then jumped off the carriage, holding the whip and blocking the group of people.
With a fierce look in her eyes, she swung the whip and attacked the man. The whip danced in the air with great force, making a sharp sound of breaking through the air.
A group of masked men immediately confronted Ah Man with swords.
"You two, go chase that carriage." The leader got entangled with Ah Man and gave the order without turning his head.
Ah Man was shocked, as he originally thought they were just a group of desperate criminals. However, after a fight, he found that these people's skills were clearly well-trained.
"Whose assassins are you?" Ah Man tried to stop the people who were going to chase the carriage, but as soon as he turned around, he was surrounded.
She knew that some powerful families liked to secretly keep assassins, commonly known as "death warriors".
Ah Man himself was brought back by the Eighth Prince for training since he was a child, so he naturally knew the difference between ordinary desperadoes and death warriors.
It’s just that the Eighth Prince trained them to become the sharp knives in his hands, not just to serve blindly.
“Little girl, go and ask the King of Hell after you die.” The leader’s eyes were as cold as a poisonous snake, revealing a strong murderous intent.
puff……
The tip of a sword pierced Ah Man's shoulder blade...
The horse, whipped by Ah Man, felt pain and ran like crazy. It deviated from the main road and ran towards the woods. The carriage crashed into the chaotic woods and was torn into pieces in a moment.
Silver moonlight sprinkled through the gaps between the trees, casting mottled shadows on Lu Xiang's pale face.
The horse was still running aimlessly, and after the shaft of the cart hit a tree, the wheel flew off in an instant.
Lu Xiang gritted his teeth and jumped off the carriage.
If she continues like this, she will not be caught but will be killed by this crazy horse.
The gravel on the ground embedded in his palm, causing Lu Xiang to break out in a cold sweat due to the pain. However, he did not dare to stop for a moment, so he stood up and ran away.
It was difficult to ride a horse in the woods, so the masked man gave up and chased after him.
Lu Xiang didn't dare to look back, but before she ran far, a head suddenly fell in front of her. She was so scared that she screamed and took two steps back, and a sudden chill came on her neck.
A sword was resting on it...
A burst of bird calls sounded at the top of the forest. Upon seeing this, the people who were fighting with Ah Man immediately stopped and retreated without any desire to fight.
"We've caught him, let's go."
Their purpose was to capture someone, and they didn't care whether the girl in front of them was dead or alive.
Ah Man was covered in wounds, and the blood had almost dyed her clothes red. She was half-kneeling on the ground, gasping for breath, and it was unclear whether the liquid flowing from her face was sweat or blood.
She endured the pain in her body, stood up with great effort, and ran towards the capital in panic.
He stumbled to the gate of the Eighth Prince's residence and knocked hard on the door.
A servant opened the door and saw Ah Man, who looked like a bloody man. He was so scared that he screamed, "Ah...Ah...Ah..."
Ah Man pushed him away and ran towards the mansion.
The servant was immediately startled and chased after him: "Where did this lunatic come from? Do you think you can barge into the Eighth Prince's Mansion without permission..."
As he was speaking, Chu Jinyan walked towards him with a bloodthirsty and murderous look in his eyes, scaring the servant so much that he almost lost control of his bowels and bladder.
It’s over, it’s over, His Highness is angry, he is dead.
The servant's legs were shaking like sieves.
When Ah Man saw the person coming, his eyes suddenly lit up: "Your Highness, help me... help the young lady..."
Sheng Xian quickly stepped forward to support Ah Man. Looking at the little girl covered in wounds, a hint of heartache flashed across his romantic and affectionate peach blossom eyes.
"Sheng Xian, take her down to treat her injuries." Chu Jinyan paused for a moment, then strode out again.
Ah Man struggled to catch up: "Your Highness, something happened to the young lady..."
Sheng Xian hurriedly said: "Don't get excited, His Highness is going to save the Third Miss."
Ah Man was slightly stunned when he heard this: "Your Highness knows?"
"Yes, someone just shot an arrow into your room with a note tied to the end of the arrow. They kidnapped the third young lady and forced your Highness to go to the City God Temple in Wulipu alone."
"The people I fought with were not ordinary robbers, but more like death squads," said Ah Man.
"Their ultimate purpose in kidnapping the Third Miss is to lure Your Highness over. From this perspective, the Third Miss is still safe for the short term. I'll help you treat your wound first." Sheng Xian said.
Ah Man shook his head: "No, I will go save the young lady too."
As he said this he was about to leave.
Sheng Xian frowned slightly, suddenly picked up Ah Man and carried him horizontally, then strode towards his room.
Ah Man was stunned, and then his face turned as black as charcoal: "What are you doing? Put me down."
You're taking advantage of her when she's sick and bullying her now that she can't fight back, right?
Sheng Xian lowered his eyes and glanced at Ah Man, with a tenderness hidden in his eyes that he himself did not notice: "Don't move, your injury will get worse, how can you save the third young lady?"
This sentence was like a spell, instantly making Ah Man quiet down.
"Then hurry up."
…
Chu Jinyan came to the City God Temple according to the address written on the note.
Because the surrounding villages have moved away, the once glorious City God Temple now looks dilapidated.
The City God Temple is not big. As Chu Jinyan just walked into the temple, he saw a masked man standing in the middle of the yard with his hands behind his back. His sinister black eyes suddenly sank when he saw the guards behind Chu Jinyan.
"Eighth Prince, do you not take us seriously, or do you not care about Miss Lu's life?"
"Where is Lu Xiang?" Chu Jinyan stared at the masked man with his deep black eyes, a cold aura emanating from his body.
The masked man raised his hand and gestured.
Then a beautiful figure slowly walked out of the temple.
After a few steps, he appeared in front of Chu Jinyan.
At this moment, Lu Xiang looked extremely embarrassed. His face was gray and black, with several scratches oozing blood. He was dishevelled and had no aesthetic appeal at all.
There was a sword on her neck, and if it got any closer, it would cut her fair skin.
Chu Jinyan looked at Lu Xiang with red eyes and a bleak face. His heart suddenly tightened, as if all the blood in his body rushed to his head, making his limbs cold and his heart aching. His gloomy face showed that a storm was about to come, and he wished he could kill these people with a thousand knives.
"Lu Xiang..."
The masked man looked at Chu Jinyan's nervous and distressed expression, and laughed perversely: "The Eighth Prince likes the Third Miss of the Lu family. It seems that this is actually true."
The moment Lu Xiang saw Chu Jinyan, he was also stunned.
After she was captured by these people, she kept guessing their next purpose, but she never expected that they would use her to lure Chu Jinyan.
Then what?
It’s obvious that these people are not easy to deal with. What will they do to Chu Jinyan?
Lu Xiang didn't dare to think too deeply, and said anxiously: "You are crazy, why don't you leave quickly."
