Peach Blossoms in Chang'an

Chun Tao held the letter close to the candlelight with shaking hands. The flame licked the paper, and lines of shocking words gradually appeared. Butler Hu took a closer look and his face turned pale. The letter not only described in detail the location where Hu Bugui and Wu Tao were trapped, but also mentioned that the mysterious organization would launch a rebellion on the night of the full moon! "The night of the full moon? Doesn't that mean..." Butler Hu's voice trembled. Tonight was the night of the full moon!

At the same time, in a hidden valley, the miracle doctor and the chivalrous knight worked together to break through the traps and finally found the imprisoned Hu Bugui and Wu Tao. The two were imprisoned deep in the dungeon, ragged and covered with wounds. When Wu Tao saw the miracle doctor, his eyes suddenly became hot and he weakly shouted, "Miracle doctor..."

The doctor hurried forward to check their injuries, his face becoming more serious. "The prince and Miss Wu are seriously injured and need treatment as soon as possible." The chivalrous hero frowned and said, "We should not stay here for long. Let's leave here first!"

The road to escape was full of dangers, and the mysterious organization pursued them relentlessly. Hu Bugui and Wu Tao endured the pain and finally escaped under the protection of the miracle doctor and the knight. However, the long-term torture and fierce fighting made the injuries of the two worse, and they urgently needed time to recuperate.

"No, we can't delay any longer!" Hu Bugui struggled to get up, his tone firm, "The mysterious organization's actions are becoming more and more frequent, we must stop them as soon as possible!" Wu Tao grabbed his hand and said worriedly: "But your injury..."

Hu Bugui shook his head, his eyes flashing with determination: "For the safety of the Tang Dynasty, I can't wait any longer!"

Wu Tao looked at Hu Bugui's pale face and felt distressed. These days, he always endured the pain, frowned, and was worried. She understood that Hu Bugui shouldered the responsibility of protecting the Tang Dynasty. This responsibility was like a heavy burden that made him breathless.

"Chun Tao, how is the prince's injury?" Wu Tao asked softly while soaking a towel with warm water. Chun Tao held the medicine bowl and answered carefully: "My lady, the prince's injury has improved a lot, but the internal injuries still need to be healed. Don't be angry or work too hard."

Wu Tao nodded and gently placed the towel on Hu Bugui's forehead. His tightly closed eyes trembled slightly, as if he couldn't get rid of the heavy burden even in his dreams. Wu Tao felt sad and secretly made up his mind to do his best to help him share his worries.

A few days later, Hu Bugui's condition gradually improved and he was able to get out of bed and walk. He looked out the window at the bright sunshine, but his heart was shrouded in a haze. "We can't just sit there and wait for death." Hu Bugui said firmly, "We must find the headquarters of the mysterious organization as soon as possible and stop their conspiracy."

Wu Tao knew that once Hu Bugui made up his mind, he would never change it easily. She did not dissuade him, but silently supported his decision. "But where should we start?" Wu Tao asked.

Hu Bugui pondered for a moment and said, "I remember hearing those men in black mention the place called 'Black Cloud Village' when I was on the run. Maybe that's their lair."

"Black Cloud Village?" Wu Tao frowned slightly. This name sounded full of danger.

In order to find the Black Cloud Village, Hu Bugui and Wu Tao resolutely embarked on a journey of search despite their injuries. They inquired about the news along the way, crossed mountains and ridges, and finally found the legendary Black Cloud Village on a dark and windy night.

Black Cloud Village is located on a steep mountain, surrounded by clouds and mist, easy to defend but difficult to attack. The village gate is closed and heavily guarded, the solemn atmosphere is chilling.

"It seems we have alerted the enemy." Hu Bugui said in a low voice, looking at the heavily guarded Black Cloud Village. Wu Tao's heart sank, and an ominous premonition came to his mind. They fell into a trap!

The shouts and screams in Heiyun Village were deafening, and the flames were soaring into the sky, illuminating the dark night sky like daylight. Wu Tao and Hu Bugui stood back to back, waving their swords to resist the black-clad men who were rushing in like a tide. They could no longer remember how many enemies they had killed, but they only knew that the swords in their hands were getting heavier and heavier, and the wounds on their bodies were getting more and more, and the pain was getting more and more.

"Tao'er, are you afraid?" Hu Bugui's voice sounded particularly low amid the deafening sound of fighting.

"No! As long as I can die with you, I'm not afraid of anything!" Although Wu Tao's voice was trembling, it was full of determination.

"Fool!" Hu Bugui's eyes were moist. He held Wu Tao's hand tightly, his heart filled with sadness. "Even if I die, I will protect you!"

However, two fists cannot defeat four hands, not to mention that the other side came prepared and outnumbered them. Hu Bugui and Wu Tao gradually lost their strength, and they both had several wounds on their bodies, and their clothes were stained with blood.

"Your Highness, Miss, let's go!" The genius doctor and the chivalrous hero fought desperately to cut a bloody path and rushed to Hu Bugui and Wu Tao.

"Let's go together!" Hu Bugui refused to abandon them and escape alone.

"It will be too late if we don't leave now!" The chivalrous hero roared and pushed Hu Bugui and Wu Tao out. Then, together with the genius doctor, they brandished their weapons and rushed into the enemy camp again, using their flesh and blood to buy time for them to escape.

Hu Bugui and Wu Tao were pushed back and staggered. Before they could react, they heard two screams from behind. They looked back and saw that the genius doctor and the chivalrous knight had been surrounded by men in black. Their figures became increasingly blurred in the midst of the flashing swords and shadows, and they finally fell in a pool of blood.

"No!" Wu Tao screamed heartbreakingly and wanted to rush back, but was hugged tightly by Hu Bugui.

"Tao'er, don't!" Hu Bugui's voice was filled with grief and despair, "They are gone, we can't let their sacrifice be in vain!"

Wu Tao collapsed weakly in Hu Bugui's arms, tears blurring her eyes. The voices and smiles of the miracle doctor and the chivalrous knight kept appearing in front of her eyes, and their hearty laughter echoed in her ears. Now they are separated by the Yin and Yang, and will never come back. They died to protect her. This heavy guilt and self-blame weighed on Wu Tao's heart like a huge rock, making her almost breathless.

Hu Bugui hugged Wu Tao tightly, and even though the cold night wind blew on them, it could not blow away the deep sadness and despair in their hearts. There was silence all around, only the fire was still crackling, as if mocking their powerlessness.

"Tao'er, we..." Hu Bugui's voice was hoarse. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't say a word. He knew that they were now isolated and helpless, without any support. Even he himself didn't know how to continue in this battle that seemed to have no end.

Wu Tao raised her head from Hu Bugui's arms, her tears had dried up, leaving only two shocking tear marks. "Bugui, we can't give up, the genius doctor and the chivalrous brother are doing this for us..."

"I know! I know everything!" Hu Bugui closed his eyes in pain, and the scene of the miracle doctor and the chivalrous knight falling down kept replaying in his mind, and his heart felt like it was being cut by a knife. He knew that it was because of their sacrifice that he and Wu Tao were able to survive, but the price was too heavy, so heavy that it made him unable to breathe.

"The end of the Tang Dynasty..." Wu Tao muttered to herself, her eyes gradually becoming firm. She stood up suddenly, looked in the direction where the leader of the mysterious organization disappeared, and said word by word, "I will never let this happen!"

Hu Bugui looked at Wu Tao in surprise, as if he was meeting her for the first time. Although the woman in front of him was frail, her eyes were full of strength, like a seed that grew tenaciously in troubled times, full of hope and vitality.

"Tao'er, you..."

"Bugui, believe me, we can definitely stop all this!" Wu Tao turned around and looked at Hu Bugui with burning eyes, his eyes full of confidence and determination.

At this moment, a ray of moonlight penetrated the clouds and shone on Wu Tao's face, reflecting her beautiful face. It also illuminated the ruins behind her, where a beautiful peach blossom was blooming in the wind...
