Order of Heaven

Chapter 57 Chapter 57

The rain continued to fall at night, the lights in the inn had been blown out, and even the shop assistants had rested after a long day of work.

A group of people and horses came in the rain, and the horseshoes splashed the muddy rain on both sides. The sound of the horseshoes intertwined with the sound of the rain continued to approach the quiet inn.

Yue Zhengming lay on the bed and listened to the sound outside, and soon woke up. He heard that the sound was coming from here, and it was getting closer.It was so late at night that someone was walking in the rain, and it sounded like there were quite a few people. He suddenly became alert. It might be the memory formed by his previous body. Even though he had passed through decades safely, he still smelled it. Dangerous breath.

Yue Zhengming got up, took the clothes at the side and put them on, he still decided to go out and have a look, it would be best if nothing happened.

This movement caused He Caixi to wake up and turn around: "What's wrong?" She half stood up and poked her head out, rubbing her eyes to adapt to the darkness and watching Yue Zhengming.

"It's all right, wake up overnight." Yue Zhengming answered carefully and opened the door and went out.

Tonight, the inn was basically occupied by a group of them. The captain of the guard led all the people to rest on the first floor. When the team outside stopped in front of the inn, Yue Zhengming saw someone in the inn at the stairs. I went out, and I saw that the costume was the person in the guard.

When Yue Zhengming was about to go up to find out, Ji Yuan suddenly appeared behind him. "Hush—" Yue Zhengming turned around to signal him to keep silent.

It seemed that Ji Yuan had also noticed the movement, and came out to check just as worried as him. The two went down the stairs lightly, and dodged behind the counter on the first floor.This place is not far from the door, so you can hear the conversations of people outside the door clearly and you can use the counter to cover your body so as not to disturb other people.

The voices of two people came from the door of the inn.

"Where's your captain?" a rough voice asked.

"The captain is resting in the house, what's the rush for your lord to come late at night?"

"Go and call him out."

The soldier opened the door and came in, went straight to find the captain, and soon the two came over and went out together.

"The emperor has an order to kill all members of the Yue family immediately!" The rough voice said coldly.

"What?!" The captain of the guard was originally assigned to protect the Yue family, but now he told him to kill the entire Yue family. He didn't dare to act rashly before he was sure.

"The emperor's handbook." The man unfolded a bright yellow thing for him to read, and wrote that Yue's family is the remnant party of rebels, who will kill without mercy.

The captain of the guard didn't know what happened in the meantime, but it was indeed the emperor's order, and now he had no choice but to obey it, so he immediately asked his men to wake up all the people he brought.

"What about people?"

"It's all upstairs."

Yue Zhengming was horrified when he heard this, but he also reacted quickly. Before anyone came in, he jumped upstairs, and Ji Yuan followed behind.

Yue Zhengming ordered Ji Yuan to get the carriage ready, he turned around and walked into the room, and as soon as he entered, he saw He Caixi sitting up.

"What happened outside?" He Caixi put on a dress.

"It's dangerous here, we must leave immediately!" Yue Zhengming put on a cloak, and took another one for He Caixi, seeing that she had dressed indiscriminately, he put it on, picked up the sword hanging by the bed and hugged her He Caixi's waist, "Go!" After saying that, he jumped out of the window with He Caixi in his arms and landed in the backyard of the inn.

It must be too late to go out from the main gate at this time, Yue Zhengming had no choice but to take a shortcut and lead He Caixi to the carriage prepared by Ji Yuan.

"Quick! Ma'am, come up." Ji Yuan stood on the carriage and pulled He Caixi up, and Yue Zhengming supported her from behind. When she got up, he jumped into the carriage immediately.

"Go!" Yue Zheng gave an order, and Ji Yuan drove forward in the carriage, not the official road to Jizhou, but a trail leading to the forest outside the backyard. If you take the official road at this time, you will definitely He will be overtaken, and there may be a chance of survival if he runs into the woods.

The man holding the handbook kicked open the door: "The traitor, arrest him with your arms loose!"

The people behind rushed in, but they didn't find anyone in the room, and they looked at each other for a moment, not knowing what to do.

"Didn't you say you were here!" the man shouted at the captain of the guard.

The captain of the guard went in and saw that the building was indeed empty, and he immediately understood when he looked at the front window.

"The man has already run away from the window, chase after him!" After speaking, he jumped out of the window and led a horse in the backyard to chase after him.

The people in the room were still looking at their leader, only to be yelled at: "Hurry up!"

The commotion in the inn was getting farther and farther away from them, but the sound of "rebel" still reached their ears. Yue Zhengming and He Caixi understood why they suddenly turned their faces.

Ji Yuan sat in the front and drove in the rain, regardless of whether the road was bumpy or not, the top priority was to shake off the rear tail first.

Yue Zhengming poked his head out of the small window and looked back. Although the shadow of the pursuers could not be seen under the heavy rain curtain, he also knew in his heart that this time was probably a bad one.They will surely find out that they have escaped from the backyard soon, and it is only a matter of time before they catch up, not to mention that it is raining now, and the traces of the carriage will fully expose their whereabouts.

Yue Zhengming wiped the rainwater off his face, and looked at He Caixi solemnly: "Caixi, get off with Ji Yuan in a while, find a place to hide, I will come back to find you after I lure people away .”

"No, master, I'll lure them away, you and your wife get out of the car!" Ji Yuan said loudly after hearing it from the front.

"It's impossible for them to give up until they see me. You won't be able to distract them at all. Listen to me and take your wife away first!" Yue Zhengming rejected Ji Yuan's proposal, stretched out his hand to tighten He Caixi's cloak and ordered get up.

He Caixi grabbed Yue Zhengming: "Zhengming, I won't leave, if we die, let's die together."

"What nonsense are you talking about, you go first and I will come back to find you." Yue Zhengming turned around and said.

"There are so many people chasing after me, how could they come back? You don't have to lie to me, I won't leave." He Caixi smiled slightly as he spoke, although it was full of bitterness.

Yue Zhengming looked at He Caixi steadily, and then smiled: "Okay." After speaking, he opened the curtain of the car and came to Ji Yuan's side.

"Ji Yuan, get off the car now and go back to find Yue Yin. If it's us, we really didn't come back, so tell him to go to Junzhu Mountain." Yue Zhengming resolutely said.

"No, I'm not leaving either!" Ji Yuan turned his face and waved his horsewhip: "Drive!"

Yue Zhengming snatched the rein from his hand: "Don't you listen to my words?"

He Caixi came out of the car: "Ji Yuan, we count on you, and Yin'er will be handed over to you."

"Ma'am!" Ji Yuan frowned, his heart was in turmoil. He wanted to stay and advance and retreat with the master and his wife. Even if he died, he would not back down, but the young master is their only concern in this world, and now he has no choice but to entrust it to himself. If they refuse, they will feel uneasy.

Yue Zhengming slowed down the speed of the car, took the whip from Ji Yuan's hand: "Let's go." He knew that Ji Yuan would not refuse their request, and with Ji Yuan by Yue Yin's side, they could rest assured.

Ji Yuan supported the carriage and turned his head while maintaining the posture of jumping off. He looked deeply at the two people on the carriage who had already regarded death as home, with tears in his eyes, which fell together with the cold rain.

Ji Yuan turned his head, jumped down, and resolutely went into the woods. Now that he has made a decision, he will not hesitate any longer. He must find the young master as quickly as possible, and then come back to save the master and wife, although it may be too late .

After putting down the era, Yue Zhengming swung his whip violently, and let the carriage run wildly in the rain again.Now I can vaguely hear the hooves of the horses chasing behind. No matter how fast the carriage is, it really can't compare with their fast horses. It seems that they will be overtaken soon.

"Hurry up! They're ahead!"

The shouts were getting closer and closer to them, and this time it seemed that they were really doomed, "Woo—" Yue clanged and pulled the reins to stop the carriage. A stone stepped on it and rolled down into the abyss below.

The pursuers finally caught up, and the two teams surrounded the carriage parked on the edge of the cliff.

Yue Zhengming got off the carriage, stood in front of them, and drew out the sword in his hand with a sound of "Zheng--", and prepared a posture to meet the enemy.

"on!"

As soon as the order was given, the soldiers with knives rushed forward, regardless of the rain covering their eyes, they all slashed at Yue Zhengming with the knives in their hands.

Yue Zhengming barely resisted for a while with his own strength, the rain mixed with blood on the long sword slid down together, and several corpses had already fallen under his feet.

The captain of the guard looked at Yue Zhengming alone in front of the carriage, and he actually admired him in his heart, but the emperor's order is hard to violate, and the lives of the brothers cannot be wasted like this casually. "Fire the arrow!" After saying this, he closed his eyes, as if he couldn't bear to look at the scene in front of him.

Arrows pressed down densely, and the more clanging and sweeping left and right could not stop them. A few arrows pierced through and hit the horse. The horse lost control and ran down the cliff, and the carriage followed immediately. Slid down together.

"Caixi!" Yue Zhengming turned around and pulled the carriage, and was shot in the back immediately. After a spit of blood, he couldn't hold the out-of-control carriage anymore, and fell down together.

Sitting in the carriage, He Caixi saw this scene, got up and jumped out: "Zhengming!" Holding Yue Zhengming who fell down, he rolled down the cliff together.

After the sound of the carriage rolling down the cliff, there was only the noise of rain falling and the sound of water in the mountain stream down the cliff.

The captain of the guard went up and down, glanced at the height of the cliff, turned around and said, "There is absolutely no possibility of surviving."

"Mission complete, withdraw!" The rough voice still had no warmth, but it carried a little sense of relief because of the completion of the task.

He took another look at the dark cliff, sighed and turned away.

Yue Yin suddenly woke up from the nightmare, sat up straight, took a few breaths and finally calmed down, turned to look at the sky outside the window, it was obviously still midnight, and the rain was still falling non-stop.Raising his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, he really didn't understand why he suddenly had a nightmare, and even broke out in sweat in such a cold day.

But now in the middle of the night, there is nothing to do when I get up, but I always feel uncomfortable lying down, and the feeling of chest tightness and shortness of breath during the day comes up again.Yue Yin didn't know why, so he got up and put on his clothes, lit the lamp and sat down in front of the case.

Yue Yin got up and went over to take the wooden hairpin, put it in his hand and looked at it, he has been carrying it for almost a year, and he has never looked at it so carefully.This wooden hairpin is indeed very delicate, it feels very good to the touch, very smooth, the carvings on the top are also meticulous, and the side face under the peach blossom is even more lifelike.

Dad said it was the Heaven's Order, but no matter how he looked at it, he thought it was just a strange and exquisite wooden hairpin, and Dad never said how to use the Heaven's Order.Yue Yin stared at the side face on the wooden hairpin in a daze. This side face looked like a gentle and jade-like young master Pian Pianjia. Since it was left behind by two young masters, could this profile be one of them?

Forget it, no matter how hard you think about it, you can't come up with any tricks, why don't you just ask your parents in the future, they will probably tell you.After putting the wooden hairpin away, Yue Yin caught a glimpse of the Xun that Gong Que gave him from the corner of his eyes, reached out to pick it up, and the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up.

After leaving the body for a long time, the coolness of the Xun returned to the touch, and the slightest coolness was conveyed to the bottom of my heart through the fingertips, which dispelled the stuffy feeling a bit.In the dead of night, only the sound of the rain ticking outside the window is left. I think it will be a while before dawn. Sitting like this is not an option. I'd better finish the book that I haven't finished reading.

Ji Yuan hid in the grass, and waited for those people to pass by on horseback before returning to the inn on the same road, pulled a fast horse, and drove towards Chenzhou.

Before dawn, I finally rushed back to Chenzhou City, and I didn't care about the tired and sticky feeling on my body, and went all the way back to Zuixianfang.When he got nearby, he found that the Drunken Immortal Workshop had been sealed long ago, so he folded it out again, went to a hidden place, and contacted his people.He had people gather people to rush to support Yue Zhengming, although he knew it might be too late, but in case, in case they did not find the master and wife, he had always held such hope.

The young master is not in Zuixianfang, so it is very likely that he is in that small courtyard, and Ji Yuan rushed to that small courtyard again.

Yue Yin felt a little stiff after reading the book in the middle of the night. He got up and stretched his waist to exercise his muscles and bones. Watching the sky slowly brighten outside, he walked to the door and opened it.

As soon as Ji Yuan entered the courtyard, he saw Yueyin fully dressed and opened the door. Thinking of the current situation of the master and his wife, his nose was a little sore, and his voice trembled when he spoke: "Master."

As soon as he opened the door, he saw the drenched Ji Yuan appearing in front of him, Yue Yin was unavoidably startled, and immediately felt that something might have happened, he returned to Yizhou with his parents, how could he appear here now. "Why is Uncle Ji back?" Yue Yin asked a little nervously.

Ji Yuan pursed his lips tightly, not knowing how to speak, the unstoppable rain was streaming down his cheeks, looking a bit sad.

Yue Yin ignored the rain that hit him, and walked up to Ji Yuan in a few steps: "What happened?"

"Master and Madam, I'm afraid it's more than auspicious at this time." Ji Yuan's lips trembled after he finished speaking.

Yue Yin was dumbfounded all of a sudden, his eyes were full of panic, and even his hands began to tremble: "What did you say?"

Ji Yuan suppressed the grief in his heart, and quickly told Yue Yin what happened last night, Yue Yin walked out while listening, and after he understood the whole thing clearly, he jumped on his horse and went to the place where the accident happened rush to.
