"Qinglian——" Xu Ziling instinctively called the other party's name, but she didn't get any response. She lowered her head and stared blankly at the key in her hand. Then she quickly raised her hand and put the key in her mouth, using the shell.
Teeth bite lightly.
It was very hard and smelled like copper. The key was real, and she was sure that she was not dreaming. Ye Qinglian was Han Lang's spy and was ready to help save her from leaving. And tonight, Han Lang was going to fall from the sky!
The feeling of happiness surged throughout her body in an instant.
Although she had never doubted that Han Lang would come to save her, however, when her hope became a reality, she was still so happy that she couldn't help herself.
She wanted to laugh, sing loudly, and dance by the window. Otherwise, she couldn't express the joy in her heart.
However, in the end, she forced herself to calm down and raised her hand to wipe her face clean with tears.
A few screams could be faintly heard outside the window, but they were quickly covered up by the sound of waves.
Xu Ziling didn't know if she was hearing hallucinations because she was too eager, but she staggered toward the window and tried her best to look out.
Except for the broken walls around the wooden house, she still couldn't see anything. She couldn't hear any cries of killing. However, she believed that he had already arrived.
The facts that happened next also proved her judgment. Several points of fire flashed in the direction where the screams came from, and then quickly turned into a fire dragon.
Immediately afterwards, dilapidated wooden houses around the fire dragon were ignited, turning into thick torches. The view outside the window quickly became brighter, allowing her to clearly see a high-flying general's flag.
He really came, and he did not let her down, even though she had used some scheming and tricks to stay with him.
"Go back, go back, don't show your head!" A guard finally noticed her smile, rushed to the window, and yelled at her. The other guard pulled out his weapon and was on full alert.
Although it will definitely take some time to search here, Xu Ziling is no longer afraid. She gave the guard a pitiful glance, turned around, staggered towards the haystack, hugged her knees with both hands, and slowly
Sit down, close your eyes and fall asleep.
This series of actions completely obeyed the guard's orders, but made the latter furious. He kicked open the door, ready to make her suffer some pain.
However, thinking of Ye Qinglian's changeable face and the cruel methods he used to treat those who dared to disobey his orders in the past, the two guards quickly became discouraged, cursed a few times in a hoarse voice, and exited the door again.
Xu Ziling turned a deaf ear to the insults and concentrated all her energy on listening to the voices coming from far away.
She heard the clash of swords, very slight, but extremely real.
She heard many people shouting loudly, vowing to capture Yu Bolian alive and serve as a servant girl to the executioner.
When she heard someone falling to the ground injured, she was immediately sure that the injured person was a Red Lotus cultist.
She heard Han Qing's voice, suppressed all the noise, and ordered Yu Bolian to come out and surrender, and not to make any more meaningless resistance.
In an instant, his figure reappeared in her mind. He was wearing silver armor, holding a spear, and a bright red cloak was floating behind him. There was no enemy in front of him.
"Kill one in ten steps, leave no trace in a thousand miles..." She smiled and whispered, then opened her eyes and secretly used the key to open the shackles on her hands and feet.
Ye Qinglian hasn't come yet and hasn't given her any signal. However, she doesn't want to wait any longer.
She didn't want Han Qing to see her pitiful appearance locked in a cage like a quail. She wanted to welcome his arrival with the best gesture she could.
She would walk up to him and dance for him, just like the legendary Tyuhun tribe girl who welcomed her lover back from the war.
In front of all the soldiers, I don't know what it is to be shy!
If he opens his arms, she will jump in without hesitation. No matter how much blood is stained on his body at this moment.
The shouts outside were getting closer and closer, mixed with desperate screams.
Yu Bolian lost the fight and was fighting and retreating towards the wooden house.
The two guards couldn't care less about supervising her anymore, and shouted to pick up their holy aunt!
Ye Qinglian still hasn't rushed over, she must have been tripped up by something.
Xu Ziling kicked off the chains, straightened her clothes, and strode out of the cell door.
The fire had already burned half of the sky red, and the surrounding area of the temporary prison was as bright as day.
The first time she saw it, she saw Han Qing.
Just as she imagined, the silver armor and spear killed Yu Bolian until she staggered and retreated continuously.
If Ye Qinglian hadn't been desperately interfering beside her, in at most two rounds, the once arrogant saint would have died under Han Qing's gun.
"Madam is over here!"
"Found the lady!"
"Mrs. Protector!"
…
Exclamations followed. Zhang Fan and Liu Hong each rushed towards her from the side with more than a dozen veterans, and at the same time spread the good news to the ears of everyone present.
"Kill her! Leave me alone!" Yu Bolian knew the situation was over and shouted the order desperately.
The two guards turned around and returned. Xu Ziling immediately ignored Han Qing and bent down to pick up a stone from the ground and threw it over the head of the closest guard.
The guard shook his head to dodge and raised his knife again. Before Xu Ziling could close her eyes and scream, Ye Qinglian suddenly gave up her protection of Yu Bolian and ran over. She raised her hand with a sword and stabbed the guard to the ground from behind.
Another guard couldn't believe his eyes. He staggered to a stop and asked harshly. What he answered was still a sword light, which stabbed him to the core in the blink of an eye.
"Damn girl, are you betraying me too?" Yu Bolian could never have imagined that Ye Qinglian, whom she trusted the most and who had single-handedly supported the sainthood, would turn her back on the battlefield. She turned her head and shouted loudly. Behind her, there were many empty doors on both sides of her body.
dew.
If she is not distracted, she is no longer Han Qing's opponent. If she is distracted, she will lose more easily.
The spear in Han Qing's hand "spouted" like a python, hitting the guard of the steel knife in her hand. The steel knife flew away from her hand in an instant, and several veterans took the opportunity to throw a lasso and entangled her tightly.
In an instant, her heart was filled with despair. Yu Bolian gave up her struggle and stared at Ye Qinglian, who was quickly turning back, and roared repeatedly, "You, you betrayed me? You, you attracted the officers and soldiers? You followed..."
A sharp knife hit her on the back of the neck. She turned her eyes white and fainted on the spot. The questioning stopped abruptly.
"The ship is at the port, and the sailors have already found it. There is enough dry food and water on the ship! Take her away now!" Han Qing retracted her hand, looked at the surprised Ye Qinglian, and ordered with a smile, "It's just a smooth sailing.
, you can reach Jeju Island in about five days.”
"Thank you for the inspection!" Ye Qinglian instantly understood that Han Qing was trying to relieve her embarrassment, put away her weapons, and bowed down.
"Thank you for taking care of my wife!" Han Qing waved with a smile and strode towards Xu Ziling.
The dancing and embracing that she had dreamed about beforehand did not happen. Xu Ziling's hands and feet suddenly became weak, and she could not muster any strength. Only tears rolled down her cheeks uncontrollably.
"I've made you feel wronged, are you okay?!" Han Qing wiped away her tears with a smile and held her gently in his arms. "Okay, don't cry, we'll go home right away."
"Yeah!" Xu Ziling choked in response, and then she shed more tears.
"Send the order, withdraw the troops! Take advantage of the low tide and walk back from the land!" Seeing that she had no strength to walk, Han Qing simply picked her up with both hands and strode outside the camp.
"There is an order to impose punishment, withdraw troops and return to camp!"
"There is an order to punish you, withdraw your troops and go back by land!"
"I've snatched my wife back by punishment, so I'll withdraw my troops and return to the camp!"
…
The order was delivered in a drawn-out voice, full of constriction.
Xu Ziling suddenly felt so ashamed that she put her head on Han Qing's shoulder and did not dare to lift it up again.
"Han Ti Xing, see you later!" Ye Qinglian saw everything and muttered to Han Qing's back.
Being able to stay with such a man, even for just a few days, must have no regrets in this life. In an instant, she understood why Xu Ziling was like a moth to the flame.
However, that kind of determination only belonged to Xu Ziling, but could not belong to her.
Smiling and raising her hands to wipe the corners of her eyes, Ye Qinglian picked up her unconscious master and strode towards the port.
She is Ye Qinglian, not Xu Ziling.
In this life, I have met him, been his opponent, and been his friend. I have seen how he grows and how he dominates. This is enough!
