The Reincarnation of the Beauty: The Concubine Doctor and the Conspiracy
Chapter 86 Escape and Confrontation
Yun Mengting and Chunhua ran desperately through the dense forest. The shadows of the trees darted by like ghosts, and the night wind howled, rattling their frayed nerves. Behind them, the faint sound of footsteps approached like thunder, as if an invisible blade could tear through the dark silence at any moment. The two fled at full speed, their fear and anxiety transforming into an invisible force, propelling them forward.
"Hurry, there's a lake ahead!" Yun Mengting pointed at the shimmering water ahead, a glimmer of hope rising in her heart. Perhaps the secluded spot by the water could buy them a moment of respite.
A hint of hesitation flashed across Chunhua's face, "But they will catch up..." There was fear in her voice, as if she thought of the danger of being hunted.
"We must escape!" Yun Mengting held her hand firmly, "As long as our hearts are together, we will be able to overcome our fear!" She no longer waited, and pulled Chunhua and ran quickly, the waves of the lake rippling under their feet.
The two jumped into the bushes by the lake, holding their breath and trying to let themselves sink into the darkness. At this moment, the lake surface was like a quiet mirror, reflecting the moonlight, but hiding their secrets.
Several pursuers arrived one after another, their voices drifting through the night air. They were cold and proud, as if they had already grasped the fate of the two men in their hands. "Find them!" one of the guards roared furiously, his expression revealing an indomitable arrogance.
"Exhaust their patience and force them to show their heads!" another guard said seriously, with a sinister smile in his voice.
Yun Mengting held Chunhua's hand tightly, feeling her heartbeat like a drum, their fears intertwined at this moment. However, their firm belief ignited courage in their hearts.
"They won't be here. The lake is too shallow. They can only escape to the shore." The guards began to wander around the lake. Yun Mengting's heart became more and more nervous, secretly praying that their hiding could help them escape.
At that moment, the lake surface rippled gently, and Chunhua trembled slightly. Her foot accidentally stepped on a dry branch, making a crisp sound. Yun Mengting's heart tightened, and she covered Chunhua's mouth tightly, forcing her to remain silent.
"Did you hear that?" One of the guards seemed to notice something and turned around slightly, with a cunning glint in his eyes.
"Keep searching, we can't let them escape!" another guard roared, his eyes as sharp as an eagle, gradually approaching their hiding place.
Yun Mengting felt a surge of urgency as she saw the crisis approaching. She knew that if she waited any longer, she would be completely exposed. She absolutely could not let the shadow of the Imperial City cast a shadow over her and Chunhua's future.
"Don't be afraid, I will protect you." Yun Mengting took a deep breath, her eyes burning. Deciding to take a gamble, she stood up slightly and shouted to the guards, "If you want to find Chunhua and me, why don't you just come to us?"
The guards were stunned when they heard this, then sneered: "Little Doctor Concubine, you are so naive! Do you think you can escape from our clutches?"
Chunhua's face became paler and paler. She held the secretary's hand tightly, but a hint of unyielding resistance burned in her eyes - the cowardice and weakness of the past were no longer there.
Yun Mengting smiled faintly, facing the enemy without fear: "I can tell you, Lu Xiao's crimes will eventually be exposed to the sun, and you are just making meaningless sacrifices!"
The hot-blooded guards were moved by her determination and courage, as if they saw an unyielding soul. Then they were excited and rushed towards Yun Mengting.
"Catch them!" they roared, like a ferocious beast that had lost its mind, breaking into the silence.
After a brief moment of hesitation, Yun Mengting decided to act. She suddenly threw a stone into the lake, splashing the water in the guards' faces and distracting them. Taking this opportunity, she and Chunhua immediately dived into the water and swam to the other side.
The boundless lake enveloped them, tangled with waterweed, as if ready to swallow them up at any moment. However, Yun Mengting's heart flickered with hope, believing their struggle would not be in vain.
The pursuers followed closely behind, and the sound of their footsteps echoed by the water. Yun Mengting and Chunhua kept exhaling, tearing the water flow, breaking through the numerous obstacles in front of them, and finally found a hidden patch of water grass.
"Hide here!" Yun Mengting whispered, her heart pounding like thunder, suppressing the frenzy within. They huddled together, relying on each other under the cover of water plants, waiting for the danger to approach.
However, the guards did not give up the pursuit easily. They wandered by the lake, talking in low voices. Yun Mengting tried her best to remain calm, silently repeating in her heart: "I can't be discovered, absolutely not!"
"They must be nearby, we can't let our guard down!" a guard said sternly, his eyes as cold as a knife. The pressure made Yun Mengting's heart tremble.
Bubbles rose to the surface of the water. Chunhua's movements were slightly unsteady due to nervousness. Yun Mengting quickly covered her mouth with her palm to prevent any sound. Her heart was like a suppressed spring, surging and surging, but she had no place to vent.
The lake, brimming with night, gradually returned to silence. The guards slowly dispersed, seemingly growing restless after failing to find their target. Yun Mengting breathed a sigh of relief, hearing the guards' whispered conversation.
"It's so frustrating that we can't find them. Did they run away?" A guard looked a little frustrated.
"Continue to expand the search range and don't miss any clues!" Another guard responded coldly, his gaze still unwilling to relax.
Yun Mengting was in a trance and recalled the struggle she and Chunhua had been going on for a long time, those times when they were unknown but fighting hard. The persistence at this moment not only concerned their fate, but was also a struggle that could not be retreated.
"We must succeed!" Yun Mengting whispered to Chunhua, a determined light flashing in her eyes. "No matter how great Your Majesty's power becomes, our faith will never be defeated!"
At this moment, suddenly, the guards seemed to notice something strange in the water, and quickly walked towards the center of the lake, stirring up waves and gradually approaching them.
"Hurry, follow me!" Yun Mengting grabbed Chunhua and swam towards the lakeshore, desperate to buy time and opportunity. Their efforts would mean opportunities and hope, and they absolutely could not give up at this moment!
**
Forced to the water's edge, they must use all their might to face the impending confrontation. The battle between truth and courage has already quietly begun. They will face the storm with their lives and faith, vowing never to surrender!
