I fell through the tunnel and brought my family to live a good life
Chapter 117 Attacked
Qicheng is not small. Before, the places she visited were mainly markets. This time, she plans to go to places she has never been to before, such as jewelry stores and craft stores. She didn't have enough money before, and she could buy a lot of things in the space, so she didn't think about shopping before. But today she has plenty of time, so she can go and take a look. If she finds something she likes, with her savings, it will be more than enough to buy some jewelry.
She walked and looked, and when she came to an embroidery shop, her eyes were instantly attracted by the exquisite embroidery displayed in the shop. The sunlight shone through the half-open window lattice on the colorful and lifelike embroidery, as if covering them with a faint halo. Xu Congyi walked into the shop and was surrounded by the warm atmosphere and exquisite embroidery. The owner was a kind old woman. When she saw Xu Congyi walk into the shop, she immediately came up to her warmly and introduced the embroidery works displayed in the shop one by one, from the materials and craftsmanship of the embroidery to the meaning of the patterns. Xu Congyi listened with great interest. However, when Xu Congyi asked about the price, she found that the price of most embroidery was beyond her budget. Although she could buy several pieces with her own money, she still couldn't make up her mind. However, she decided to buy a few small items as souvenirs. She selected a few handkerchiefs, and the small animals embroidered on them were vivid, as if they would jump out of the handkerchiefs at any time.
After buying the handkerchief, Xu Congyi was in a particularly good mood. She continued to walk along the street leisurely. Inadvertently, she passed by an antique calligraphy and painting shop. The decoration inside the shop was quiet and elegant, like a small world isolated from the world. Her eyes swept through the shop and were suddenly attracted by a landscape painting. Although she herself had no special interest in landscape paintings, just a glance at it, the painting seemed to have an indescribable magic, which made her stop involuntarily.
The landscape painting is delicate and every detail is full of life and energy. In the painting, there are overlapping mountains, winding paths, and clouds and mists lingering in the valleys, as if you can be immersed in the scene and feel the freshness and tranquility between the mountains and rivers. Xu Congyi was deeply attracted by the artistic conception of the painting. She walked into the store involuntarily and stood in front of the painting for a long time, unwilling to leave.
Seeing Xu Congyi so engrossed in the painting, the shop owner came over with a smile and started chatting with her. The shop owner told her that this painting was the treasure of his shop, which he carefully selected from a collector. The landscape in the painting has a profound artistic conception, which not only shows the painter's superb skills, but also conveys a kind of awe and love for nature.
"This girl has really good taste. But no matter how much you like this painting, I'm afraid I can't give it up." The shop owner said sincerely.
After hearing what the shop owner said, Xu Congyi responded politely: "It's okay, I won't take away your favorite. This painting is indeed a rare masterpiece. It's my honor to be able to appreciate it here." However, Xu Congyi actually had another idea in her mind. Although she didn't know much about landscape paintings, she could see the preciousness of this painting. She thought that even if the shop owner was willing to sell it, she probably couldn't afford such an expensive work of art.
After that, she visited many shops and bought many small things. She spent a lot of money. She bought gifts for everyone in her family. She could hardly hold them all. But she wanted to go to other areas of the market. However, it was inconvenient to walk with so many gifts in her hands. She looked around and wanted to put the things in the space first. Finally, her eyes were fixed on a secluded alley.
Xu Congyi stood at the entrance of the alley and looked inside. She saw that the alley was winding and seemed to have no end. She estimated that this should be a dead end, so she took a step forward with confidence and walked deeper into the alley. The more Xu Congyi walked, the deeper she felt that the alley was deeper than she had seen at first. She was a little curious and wanted to see how deep the alley was. Finally, she reached the end of the alley. This was indeed a dead end. There was only one family living here. The stone slabs in front of the door were covered with mixed yellow grass, as if no one had taken care of it for a long time. Xu Congyi took two steps back and looked up, and found that even the tiles on the roof were covered with thick yellow grass. She approached the family and through the gap in the heavy wooden door, she saw that the yard was desolate. Obviously, no one had lived there for a long time. But Xu Congyi felt that this secluded alley was an excellent hiding place. She was secretly happy, thinking that she could enter and exit her space freely here, and there was no one around, so she didn't have to worry about being discovered.
Xu Congyi was carrying a lot of gifts, and a small package accidentally slipped from her hand and fell to the ground. Xu Congyi hurriedly lowered her head to pick it up. At this moment, she felt a cold wind passing over her head, followed by a sharp sound of breaking through the air. She looked up and saw an arrow flashing with cold light passing through her hair like lightning and piercing straight into the wall behind her. The arrow trembled slightly on the wall, making a buzzing sound, and the sharp arrowhead flashed a cold light, as if the eyes of the god of death were staring at her.
"what's the situation!"
Xu Congyi's mind went blank in an instant, and fear surged into her heart like a tide. She was so scared that her whole body was stiff and unable to move, as if she was frozen. Then, another arrow flew over and pierced the wall farther away, accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps, and she realized that this was not a simple prank.
Xu Congyi felt like crying but had no tears, and was filled with remorse. This was not a perfect hiding place at all; it was clearly a grave that would take her life!
However, because it was her first time to encounter such a scene, her reaction seemed a little slow. For a moment, she even forgot that she had the ability to enter space. The footsteps were getting closer and closer. Xu Congyi looked around, looking for a place to hide. However, in this narrow alley, she had nowhere to escape. At this moment, she saw a figure, it was Shen Xiao! He covered his injured arm, blood seeped from his fingers, obviously injured by an arrow.
The sound of footsteps approached, and five or six arrows flew over, one of which went straight through Xu Congyi's hair, causing her hair to fall off instantly. She felt a sharp pain, but more of it was fear.
not good!
Xu Congyi's heart tightened, she suddenly remembered that she had space!
No more hesitation!
Although she had never tried to bring people into the space, she couldn't care less now. She quickly grabbed Shen Xiao's arm and pulled him into her space with all her strength. In the space, they could temporarily avoid attacks from the outside world and wait for the right time to go out.
