"Ah ~" Wu Yunzhu screamed in fear and hurriedly ran back. As she ran, she regretted sneaking out. At the same time, she complained that Nalan Rongruo was too useless.
Qing Hai Yixiao smirked and stretched his leg to kick a small stone on the ground. The small stone flew and hit Wu Yunzhu's leg while he was running away.
"Ouch ~" Wu Yunzhu felt her leg go numb and she fell to the ground.
"What a delicate little beauty, but your chest seems a little small." Qing Hai Yixiao stretched out his hands and slowly reached out to her slightly bulging chest.
Nalan Rongruo was furious. Unfortunately, his acupuncture point was sealed and he couldn't even speak. He could only make futile sounds.
"Don't come over." Wu Yun Zhu's pretty face became deathly pale. At this moment, she discovered that the literary talent that she was so proud of in the capital city was useless in front of her.
"In those chivalrous novels, when a noble lady is in trouble, a great hero will appear to save her. Why didn't I have one?" She had always been full of romantic feelings. She couldn't help but think.
"Hey, what time is it? Why are you still thinking nonsense?" Wu Yunzhu wanted to cry but had no tears.
"Throw the hairpin at him."
At this time, Wu Yunzhu suddenly heard a gentle male voice. She didn't have time to react. She subconsciously pulled out the hairpin on her head and threw it at Qing Hai Yixiao who was getting closer and closer.
"Sending a love letter so early …" Qing Hai Yixiao smiled and carelessly grabbed the hairpin. Suddenly, his expression changed and he hurriedly retreated. Unfortunately, it was too late.
Ding ~
A faintly discernible sound was heard in the air. It seemed as if something invisible had hit the tail of the jade hairpin in mid-air. The originally fluttering jade hairpin suddenly transformed into an indistinct green light, and directly penetrated Qinghai Yixiao's palm. Then, under his incredulous gaze, the hairpin directly penetrated his heart.
Lowering his head to look at the hole in his chest, Qinghai Yixiao's throat made a series of meaningless gurgling sounds, and then he fell to the ground dejectedly.
Wu Yunzhu stared at her small hand. It was white and tender like a jade lotus. She couldn't believe that it was this hand that threw the jade hairpin.
Chu Hongliu reacted quickly. He hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed. "Senior, please spare my life. I accidentally disturbed you. I will leave now." The Qinghai Yi Xiao's martial art skill was definitely superior to his, but he was killed without making any noise. It was unknown how high the martial art skill of the person in the dark was.
"Do you still remember the military pledge you made? It's not that I don't want to, it's just that it's not time yet. "
A familiar voice suddenly rang in Chu Hongliu's ears, and her pupils shrank. "It's you! Song … "
* Whoosh! *
A pine needle shot into the space between his eyebrows. Chu Hongliu's voice suddenly stopped.
At the same time, Nalan Rong Ruo felt her whole body lighten. Her acupuncture point had already been unsealed. She hurriedly crawled up and ran over to help Wu Yunzhu up. "Wu Yunzhu, how are you?"
Wu Yunzhu stared in a daze at the nearby Chu Hongliu, who was crying and throwing a tantrum, and then suddenly died on the spot. He couldn't help but mutter, "Are there ghosts in this world?"
When Song Qingshu had spoken to Chu Hongliu earlier, he had used the Secret Sound Transmission technique. Naturally, she couldn't hear it. She could only see Chu Hongliu talking to the air and dying in such a strange manner. She immediately felt a chill run down her spine.
"It's not a ghost. We've met an expert." Nalan Rong Ruo laughed bitterly. Although his martial art skill was average, as an imperial bodyguard, he was quite knowledgeable. He spoke to the air, "Thank you, Senior, for saving us. Since Senior is unwilling to show yourself, please accept Nalan Rong Ruo's three kowtows." He then knelt on the ground and respectfully kowtowed three times.
Song Qingshu smiled slightly. With his current martial art skill and status, his state of mind was vastly different from before. If it was two years ago, he might have come out to tease Wu Yunzhu. But the current him …
Once the matter was done, he would brush his clothes and hide his identity and name.
Song Qingshu shook his head. Just as he was about to leave without a sound, he suddenly heard Wu Yunzhu cry out in alarm, "Ah, the poison in my body has flared up."
Song Qingshu turned his head around in confusion. He saw Wu Yunzhu's eyes roll back and her body softly fall to the ground.
"What happened to you? Don't scare me. " Nalan Rong Ruo immediately became anxious. Seeing Wu Yunzhu's pale complexion, without the slightest bit of movement, she could not help but stretch out her trembling hand to feel her breathing.
Nalan Rong Ruo felt as if she was struck by lightning. She collapsed to the side. With an incredulous expression, she muttered to herself, "How could she not be breathing? She's not breathing …"
"Huh?" Song Qingshu was startled. He did not see the Qinghai Yixiao and Chu Hongliu use any poison. Could it be that Wu Yunzhu had been poisoned before?
His friendship with Songgotu was one thing, but Song Qingshu realized that the two of them could not be considered as true friends. But to let such a lovely little girl die like this was really not in line with his nature.
While Nalan Rong Ruo was absent-minded, she suddenly heard a voice coming from behind her, "Let me take her pulse."
Nalan Rong Ruo quickly turned around. She found a masked man in black standing in front of her. The man gave her an unfathomable feeling. Nalan Rong Ruo faintly had a feeling that the other party should be quite young. Unfortunately, he was wearing a mask, so she could not see his appearance clearly.
"I beg Senior to save her." Nalan Rong Ruo hastily stepped aside. How could she not realize that this person was the Senior expert who had saved them earlier?
Song Qingshu nodded. Just as he was about to go over, he suddenly creased his brows and snorted, "Did you deliberately deceive me?"
Everything happened so suddenly that he did not have time to think about it. When he got closer to Wu Yunzhu, he quickly realized that something was wrong. Even though Wu Yunzhu tried her best to hold her breath, she was unable to stop her heartbeat.
With Song Qingshu's skill, he was very close to her, so naturally, he could see everything clearly.
Wu Yunzhu suddenly opened her eyes and giggled at him, "Senior is indeed an expert. Unlike this idiot who was so easily deceived."
Nalan Rong Ruo was immediately pleasantly surprised, "Are you really alright?"
Song Qingshu snorted, "This boy was just confused because he was too concerned. With his cultivation level as a first-class Imperial Bodyguard, if it was someone else, they would not have been able to hide it from him."
"Senior is also very concerned about me. Otherwise, why would you appear to save me as soon as you heard I was in trouble?" Wu Yunzhu's face revealed a crafty smile.
Song Qingshu deliberately put on a straight face, "I just don't want my previous actions to be in vain. Even if it was just a cat or dog, since I have already made a move to save it, I will certainly save it to the end."
Wu Yunzhu could not help but stick out her tongue, "Even if it was just a cat or dog, it was still a pretty cat or dog."
Song Qingshu immediately did not know whether to laugh or cry. This daughter of Songgotu was quite interesting.
When Wu Yunzhu did not see him, in her heart, she imagined the great hero who saved her to be as romantic, refined, handsome, and confident as described in the knight-errant novels. But now that she saw him, his face was wearing an ice-cold mask. Not to mention whether he was handsome or ugly, even his age was very difficult to judge. Inevitably, she was somewhat disappointed.
She could not help but look at him again. She saw that his eyes were shining brightly, and his heroic spirit was pressing. That lightning-fast gaze swept past her face and stopped for a moment, as if he was slightly baffled by her gaze. Wu Yunzhu's chest became hot, she could not help but blush. She lowered her head, vaguely feeling that whether this person was handsome or ugly, it did not matter much anymore.
"You racked your brains to trick me to come out, is there something you want to say to me?" Song Qingshu saw that her gaze was strange, he was somewhat apprehensive in his heart.
How could Wu Yunzhu have the nerve to say that she only wanted to see if he was handsome or not? She suddenly had a bright idea and asked, "Is Senior acquainted with my father?"
Song Qingshu was slightly startled. He shook his head, "I don't know him."
"Then what about Nalan Rongruo's father?" Wu Yunzhu was afraid that he did not know who Nalan Rongruo's father was, so she added, "Her father is the current imperial court minister, Ming Zhu."
"I don't know him either." Song Qingshu looked at her with great interest, wondering what kind of trick this little girl was playing.
Wu Yunzhu's face gradually showed a trace of happiness, "Then you must know the Golden Snake King?"
Song Qingshu was startled, "Why do you ask?"
Seeing that he did not deny it, Wu Yunzhu became more confident, "There were so many Tom, Dick, and Harry on the road, but Senior happened to save us. There must be a reason. Moreover, you don't know our parents. A master like Senior couldn't have saved us because of the beauty of a little girl like me, right?" As she spoke, her face turned red at the same time.
Song Qingshu was suddenly speechless, he could not help but cough, "Continue."
"That's why I thought about it. You must have heard us talking about the Golden Snake King and knew that I admired him. That's why you saved me. You must be friends with the Golden Snake King," Wu Yunzhu said with certainty.
Just a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse!
Song Qingshu could not help but curse, but she kept calling him Senior, so he was too embarrassed to admit that he had really saved her because of her good looks.
In order to maintain the demeanor of a master, he could only pretend to agree, "Ahem, I guess you can say that we know each other."
Wu Yunzhu's eyes suddenly lit up, and she hurriedly asked, "Senior, is the Golden Snake King as described in the legends, handsome, elegant, and elegant …"
A long string of adjectives hit Song Qingshu a little dizzy, "This, maybe, probably, should be …" He was obviously thick-skinned, but he still had to pretend to be embarrassed.
Wu Yunzhu's eyes became even brighter, and she continued to ask, "Then is his martial arts as superb as described in the legends, reaching the peak of perfection, and invincible in the world …"
"This, it's just so-so." Even though Song Qingshu was thick-skinned, he could not stand it anymore. He thought to himself that this girl looked gentle and quiet, but she was actually a love-struck girl, a heavy fan.
Wu Yunzhu suddenly became unhappy, "Senior, if you think the Golden Snake King's martial arts are just so-so, does that mean you think you're better than him?"
"This …" Song Qingshu was speechless for a moment. He was afraid that he was the only one who had ever fought with his fan. "About the same, about the same."
Wu Yunzhu wrinkled her nose, "Hmph, I don't believe you. You must be bragging to fool a little girl like me who doesn't know martial arts, unless you can prove it."
Song Qingshu was stunned, "How can I prove it?"
Wu Yunzhu's face suddenly showed a trace of a sly smile, "Take me to him, and the truth will naturally come to light."
Song Qingshu suddenly laughed involuntarily. After all this time, she was just asking him to take her to see the Golden Snake King. He couldn't help but feel a sudden impulse, "Okay, if you're not afraid, then come with me."
Song Qingshu smiled, turned around, and left. A trace of joy flashed on Wu Yunzhu's face, and she hurriedly chased after him, "Hey, senior, wait for me."
Nalan Rong Ruo was anxious, and just as she was about to chase after them, she suddenly found that her whole body seemed to be imprisoned, and she couldn't move at all. She could only watch as the two walked further and further away, and finally disappeared into the depths of the forest.
