The Regent's Koi Princess
Chapter 178 Two Groups Heading Towards Western Liao
It was late at night and the street was quiet. The occasional night watchman passing by was in a hurry and no one noticed Lin Xi and Xiao Guizi.
It was dark at this moment. The figures of Lin Xi and Xiao Guizi stretched and shortened under the sparse street lights, as if they were submerged in the darkness and merged into one with the night.
Under Lin Xi's leadership, the two of them moved lightly between the alleys, turning left and right with brisk steps.
They give people the feeling that every step they take is precise and accurate, like deer jumping in the woods, or as silent as ghosts.
Although the bag on Lin Xi's back was heavy, it did not slow down his pace at all. Instead, it added a bit of determination and urgency.
Xiao Guizi followed behind, also carrying a large package on his back. It was so bulging that his thin body seemed to be unable to bear the weight, which made him look quite funny.
To be honest, looking at Xiao Guizi's physique and his very handsome face, if you don't know him, you would think he is a girl.
Their goal is the western suburbs. There seems to be an unknown call hidden in the darkness, and an unknown force is leading them forward.
Time is tight and the task is heavy, there is no time for them to delay.
Lin Xi, who was walking in front, looked around in the darkness with her beautiful eyes.
Occasionally, a gust of night breeze blew past, lifting the hair in front of her forehead, revealing her eyes that sparkled with determination.
It is the yearning for the future and the persistence of the beliefs in one's heart.
It was as if he was saying that he would never return until the barbarians were wiped out.
Lin Xi's greatest wish is to use the knowledge and skills he has learned in modern times to eliminate the barbarians and end the war.
What she most desires to see is a world without the troubles of war, with peace and prosperity and people living and working in peace and contentment. For this goal, she will rush forward fearlessly no matter what difficulties lie ahead.
Lin Xi's breathing was even and powerful, and every breath of hot air seemed to be having some kind of mysterious communication with the night.
Compared to Xiao Guizi, Lin Xi's steps were steadier, as if she was carrying an empty bag.
I saw her, sometimes jumping forward, sometimes walking and looking around, as if she had merged into the night.
In a quiet street corner, a nocturnal cat that was out foraging alone was startled by her noise.
All I heard was a "meow" and then it rushed into deeper darkness, leaving behind a series of terrified cries, and was soon swallowed up by the night.
Lin Xi continued to gallop towards the depths of the western suburbs in her rabbit-ghost-like manner.
The current situation does not allow for any delay. She must rush to Western Liao and delay him before Zhao Shizong launches his rebellion.
Once the matter in Nanjing is resolved, it will be easy to deal with him.
Even if we can't kill him, we'll have to peel off a layer of his dead skin.
After running for a while, Xiao Guizi couldn't help but ask.
"Master, we just did this without even saying hello, aren't you afraid that the prince will... punish you?"
In the dark night, Lin Xi turned her head and looked at Xiao Guizi, grinning. Although you couldn't see her expression, you could see her big white teeth.
"Hehe! By the time he finds out, we will have already been enjoying ourselves in Western Liao! The emperor is far away, and I am not afraid of anything.
If he dares to challenge me, I will give him a meteor hammer to see how it tastes.
Okay, stop wasting time, conserve your energy and catch your breath, otherwise, you will alienate those who are not as beneficial as you. This princess is afraid that you will not have the strength to run away soon.
Really, there are so many bad guys in the world waiting for us to eliminate, so many injustices waiting for us to solve. There is no time to waste.
Don't waste time, go there quickly, I'm afraid Sun Yan and Chen Dake can't wait any longer.
Let’s go and meet them quickly.”
……
In another narrow and dark alley.
Yue Niang, who managed to escape, was filled with fear.
In addition, she had been tortured by Zhao Zhoucheng for so long that her body was seriously damaged, which caused her steps to stagger. Every step felt like she was stepping on cotton, weak and uneasy.
The night was as dark as ink, tightly wrapping her frail figure. Only the sound of her rapid breathing and the occasional sound of stones and tiles colliding seemed particularly harsh in the silent night.
She waved her hands wildly, trying to dispel the darkness and fear around her, but her fingertips only touched cold air and rough walls. Her heart was beating so violently with fear that it almost jumped out of her throat.
Because it was dark and the sweat mixed with tears blurred her vision for a moment, but it could not blur the desire to survive in her heart.
Yue Niang closed her eyes tightly, paused for a moment and then opened them again. Although she could not see the direction clearly, she could only let her intuition guide her. She knew that stopping would mean being caught, and being caught would mean facing death.
Because with the methods of that old beast Zhao Zhoucheng, if I fall into his hands again, he will definitely torture me in various ways.
So, she must escape, escape far away. Only by surviving can she have the chance to take revenge.
So she gritted her teeth and ran forward with all her strength, as if she could find a glimmer of hope by getting through the endless darkness.
She was so frightened, hungry and cold that every step she took seemed to exhaust all her strength.
The cold night wind whistled past her ears, bringing with it a biting chill, but it also blew away some of her fear, making her more conscious.
The dim light from the street lamp occasionally passed across her face, reflecting a touch of determination and indomitable spirit.
In this long dark night, Yue Niang's figure gradually faded away, becoming a lonely and determined landscape.
She didn’t know how long she had been running, nor how many alleys she had turned into. Holding on to her last breath, Yue Niang waited until she left the north gate before she stopped beside a hidden big tree.
She slid down slowly, leaning her back against the tree, and sat on the ground. In the cold night, she ran so hard that she was sweating profusely, and even her clothes on the back were soaked with sweat.
On the stubborn face, a mixture of sweat and tears appeared, and in the red eyes, there was overwhelming hatred.
He raised his hand and patted his chest to calm his heartbeat.
She has been living in dire straits these past few days. No one can understand the despair of a person who is on the verge of death but has no power to choose.
She would never forget these inhuman times of being abandoned by Qinyin Pavilion and tortured by Zhaozhou Cheng.
After sitting quietly for a while, Yue Niang looked up in the direction of escape, her fists clenched and her teeth gritted.
"Zhao Zhoucheng, I, Yue Niang, swear that no matter how difficult it is, I will come back to seek revenge on you.
Ah!
Don’t you have a son that you are proud of?
That……"
Yue Niang raised her chin, lifted her eyelids, and said to herself with a fierce look in her eyes: "I heard that Zhao Shizong committed all kinds of evil... Yue Niang will enforce justice on behalf of the heavens and get rid of him for the people of the world."
