Chapter 43: The Righteous Boy vs. the Demonic Girl 21

"She escaped time and again, knowing that she would not survive long without the antidote, and that he would keep chasing her."

Shen Yi's voice was calm, but it seemed to have some emotions in it. "Even so, are you going to leave?"

The expression of this forbearing face and the tone of questioning seemed strangely familiar.

Ignoring the strangeness in his heart, Shi Qing looked straight at him and said, "Yes."

Still the expected answer.

Shen Yi closed his eyes, opened them after a long while and said, "Go away."

Shi Qing uttered an "ah" and looked at him doubtfully, "Are you really going to let me go?"

"It will be too late if we don't leave now." Shen Yi became indifferent again.

"Thank you!"

Shi Qing immediately jumped onto the horse, grabbed the rope, and rode towards the city gate.

Shi Qing suddenly thought of something and turned his head back abruptly.

The man in black disappeared in the crowd, but his eyes were fixed on her departing figure with persistence and passion.

Seeing her turn around, he seemed to smile gently, with his mouth slightly open.

Behind him, there are thousands of troops.

Shi Qing turned around, eyes moist, and rushed towards the city gate.

"Why are you leaving?"

The distant yet familiar cold voice in her memory asked her, or rather, asked Lin Qing.

"For freedom." A cold and stubborn voice answered him.

"Freedom?" Shen Yi, dressed in black, stood condescendingly and read the two words thoughtfully.

"You have always been a minion of the Demon Cult, so naturally you don't understand."

Lin Qing, who was also dressed in black, was tied to the ground by him, sneering and mocking.

There was no anger on Shen Yi's stern face. He just silently took Lin Qing back to the Demon Cult.

Just as Shen Yi said later.

Lin Qing was thinking about escaping all the time.

She would find an opportunity to leave every time she went on a mission, and Shen Yi would always catch her back.

But every time he hid it from Shen Yan.

I don't want to let her go, but I don't want to report her either.

He grew up beside Shen Yan since he was a child, and obeying and protecting Shen Yan was his only mission.

Naturally, I don’t understand what Lin Qing meant by disregarding his own life to pursue the so-called freedom.

After catching her back one time, Lin Qing suddenly broke down and cried.

Shen Yi was at a loss when faced with this kind of thing.

When he saw a rabbit eating grass obediently in a cage on the roadside, he somehow suddenly bought it and gave it to Lin Qing.

Lin Qing was stunned for a long time at that time. After returning, he did not run away again. Even Shen Yi thought so.

Until the time comes.

That was her last escape.

Originally, she had successfully lowered Shen Yi's vigilance. That was the moment when she was closest to freedom, but at the last moment, the poison suddenly took effect.

For the first time, she experienced a feeling that was worse than death. Her mind became dizzy and she finally fell down.

When I woke up later, it was Shi Qing.

Once an experience becomes the past, it will be constantly washed away and faded in the flow of memory, becoming abstract and vague.

Until it is completely forgotten and is no longer a memory.

In order to reduce the burden, Shi Qing would normally only inherit her basic memories.

Unless you look into it, you won't be able to remember these details at all.

Shi Qing drove his horse straight through the guards at the city gate and continued galloping without daring to stop for a moment.

Behind, Shen Yan had already caught up.

He must have discovered the secret passage.

Suddenly thinking of the post station that Gu Xiao mentioned, Shi Qing reined in his horse beside the post station. It was already evening and there were not many people there.

She was afraid that Gu Xiao had not arrived yet, and she was also afraid that he would turn back and wait for her here foolishly, and be caught by Shen Yan's men.

Shi Qing was anxious.

It was inconvenient in ancient times without mobile phones, she complained in her heart.

He casually pulled out the only hairpin on his head, threw it at the tree with force, and it stuck firmly on the trunk.

I hope Gu Xiao’s eyesight is better.

Thinking of this, Shi Qing continued to escape.

The pursuers behind her didn't seem to be chasing her, but she didn't dare to relax.

After all, this time he took the sword-fighting secret book that Shen Yan had gone to great lengths to find. If he were caught by him, his life would definitely be in danger.

After riding for half the night, Shi Qing finally saw a small village with faint candlelight flickering in the night.

Feeling relieved, Shi Qing walked over there and knocked on the door after hesitating for a moment.

The door creaked and was half-opened from the inside. An old man leaned out and asked, "Girl, who are you?"

"Uncle, I'm not a bad person. I just want to stay here for one night. Is that possible?" Shi Qing felt relieved and asked with pure eyes.

The old man looked at her in a state of disgrace.

His hair was messy, his clothes were wrinkled, and he was leading a horse.

It looks weird no matter how you look at it.

The system, which had not appeared for a long time, suddenly spoke: [Host, the bad guys all say they are not bad guys.]

Shi Qing's head was filled with black lines, [You didn't show up when the situation was urgent, but you were very active when you confronted me.]

The system fell silent again.

Shi Qing looked at the old man who was still alert and said softly:

"Uncle, I'm really not a bad person. I ran away from home to escape marriage, and now it's dark, and I have nowhere to go, so I want to stay here for one night."

"What's wrong?" Another kind voice came from far away.

"Girl, why are you here alone?" An old woman leaned out.

Shi Qing repeated the wording again.

Seeing her standing alone and looking so pitiful, with her beautiful face unable to conceal, she really looked like a lady from a wealthy family.

My family is so poor that I guess there is nothing I can do.

After thinking for a moment, the old woman opened the door and said, "Come in, girl."

Seeing Shi Qing dawdling at the door, the old woman turned around and said kindly, "Put your horse in the shed outside first."

Shi Qing trapped the horse on a pillar of a simple shed and stroked it gently, "My dear horse, you've worked hard today. Have a good rest. I'll find food for you tomorrow."

Trot into the house.

"Girl, our family is poor and we only have one room. We can only trouble you to sleep with the two of us old people for one night."

The old woman led her into the room. There was only a bed and a reed mat in the corner.

"Mother-in-law, I'll just sleep on the floor." Shi Qing said.

"Okay." Probably considering her reputation, the old lady did not object.

He silently spread the mat on the ground, took a relatively thick quilt from the bed, and kept a thin one for himself.

She said kindly, "It's a little cold at night, don't fall ill."

"Mother-in-law, I have practiced some martial arts, so I won't be cold." Shi Qing put the thick quilt back and took out a thin one.

"I'm already very grateful to you and the old man for letting me stay. If you gave me this thicker one, how could I feel comfortable with it?"

Seeing her refuse, the old woman stopped insisting and said, "Girl, it's getting late, and I see you're tired, so go to bed early."

The only light in the room went out, Shi Qing's tired and tense mood relaxed, and he fell into a deep dream.

In the dim morning light, among the green mountains and forests, Shi Qing was leisurely walking with his horse.

She said goodbye to the old man early in the morning and secretly put a few bills under her quilt.

At the moment, it seems that there are no pursuers.

Shi Qing relaxed and let the horse graze in the quiet forest.

Although he didn't see Shen Yan, it was not realistic to go back to the post station to meet Gu Xiao. He could only pray that Gu Xiao saw the hint he left.

The person he was worried about had already arrived at the roadside inn.
