Revenge of the First Daughter - Chapter 347
Chapter 347 A Glimmer Of Life
“Be careful!”
The ice-cold sharp arrow flashed with silver light and flew towards the person in front of him like rain.
Rong Jin could only feel a breath being raised in his throat. In his anxiety, he only had time to say two words before he rushed over.
However, Yun Xiao only heard a cold light not far behind her, as if she was being stared at by a poisonous snake. Seeing Rong Jin’s expression change slightly, she restrained the smile on her face. She looked sideways and saw several sharp arrows rushing towards her!
Every arrow was like a poisonous snake, swallowing and shouting at him like a snake! It made one’s entire body unconsciously nervous!
She wanted to move, but her mind was completely blank. The strength on her body seemed to have been drained, and she could not move at all.
Seeing Yun Xiao’s pale expression, Rong Jin’s heart became even more anxious. He hugged Yun Xiao’s body and lay on the ground. He rolled a few times. Seeing the sharp arrow landing just away from Yun Xiao, Rong Jin’s heart lifted again.
If he was one step later, would he never see the little woman in front of him again?
This thought only flashed in his heart for a moment before Rong Jin hugged the person in his arms tightly again!
“Are you all right?” Rong Jin lowered his head and saw that Yun Xiao’s palm-sized face did not have the slightest color of blood, and was covered in fine and dense beads of pale sweat.
As they got closer, they could see the injuries on Yun Xiao’s body even more clearly. One of her feet seemed to be crippled, and the skin on her hand also became blurry. Bright blood covered her entire palm.
Because he had just rolled on the ground, he could see that Yun Xiao’s hands were already stained with quite a bit of soil. However, the soil touched the blood and quickly turned into dark red soil. It looked even more shocking!
When Yun Xiao saw Rong Jin staring at her hand, she chuckled at him and said, “I’m fine. Those people are going to chase after me. The immortal herb has already been obtained. Let’s go first.”
As she spoke, she struggled to get out of Rong Jin’s embrace and stand up. However, her feet seemed to be crippled. She was so painful that she didn’t have any strength. Before she could stand up, she almost fell.
Rong Jin stretched out his hand and supported Yun Xiao’s falling body. He quickly took out a pill from his body and fed it to Yun Xiao. He then said loudly, “Don’t worry about that much. Take the pill first.”
Just as the two of them were in the middle of their conversation, those people had already set up their arrows again and shot out a second arrow. As they shot, they chased after them.
Rong Jin was already prepared, so he naturally wouldn’t let those people succeed!
With Yun Xiao’s body, he flipped through the air and avoided the sharp arrows.
Right at this moment, a man walked out from behind the soldiers. The man was born with a tiger’s back and a bear’s waist. The fat on his body made people worry for him at a glance. Was this fat meat about to fall off?
The person who came shouted in the direction of Yun Xiao and Rong Jin, “Who is this person? He actually dared to barge into the Imperial Mausoleum! Hand over the Divine Immortal Grass, and I will spare your lives!”
Yun Xiao and Rong Jin would believe that these words were idiots, not to mention that the two of them had originally come for the Divine Immortal Grass. Since they had already obtained the Divine Immortal Grass, how could the two of them hand over the Divine Immortal Grass? This was simply a joke!
Yun Xiao and Rong Jin exchanged a glance without the slightest intention of begging for mercy with those people. Rong Jin first sized up the surroundings and then flew forward with Yun Xiao in his arms!
When the two of them moved, they did not receive any response. The general, who knew that he was being ignored, felt that his face was a little too much. He immediately turned cold and said, “Fire an arrow for me! Shoot those people to death! Notify all the people guarding the Imperial Mausoleum that someone has broken into the Imperial Mausoleum!”
As his voice fell, arrows fell like rain, one after another shooting towards Yun Xiao and Rong Jin’s back.
Yun Xiao was hugged by Rong Jin. Feeling the warmth and heartbeat coming from the man’s body, she unconsciously raised her head to look at that handsome face. Hearing the general’s voice behind her, Yun Xiao’s heart also became more vigilant. The corner of her eyes only saw that the entire mountain was surrounded by people for a while!
Under the rain of arrows, one by one, they shot towards the two of them as if they were conscious!
When Yun Xiao saw Rong Jin hugging her and shuttling back and forth in the rain of arrows, she couldn’t help but tighten her grip. She was deeply afraid that those arrows would land on Rong Jin’s body.
Seeing that the two of them were about to leave the range of those arrows, Yun Xiao heaved a sigh of relief. However, before she could send this sigh to Yuncheng, she heard the sound of a bell ringing from the foot of the mountain.
“Dong … Dong … Dong … Dong … Dong” The sounds became more and more urgent.
Yun Xiao frowned, “What should we do now?” When the bell rang, everyone in the Imperial Mausoleum would probably know that someone had broken into the Imperial Mausoleum. If the two of them wanted to run out, it would be a bit difficult.
If Rong Jin was still intact, Rong Jin would naturally not care about these dangerous places. However, now that he was seriously injured, he only had half of his internal strength left, and he still carried Yun Xiao with him, it was obviously extremely difficult to break out.
However, with the bell ringing in the Imperial Mausoleum, martial law would definitely be enforced, and it would be difficult for the two of them to hide for a while.
“Don’t be afraid, we will go out!” Rong Jin lowered his head and chuckled at Yun Xiao. His words carried a comforting light.
However, he didn’t know if he was comforting himself or others.
Just as Rong Jin spoke, he heard the sound of horse hooves and heavy footsteps coming from the foot of the mountain. Hearing this sound, he knew that a lot of pursuers were coming.
After a moment of caution appeared on Rong Jin’s face, he hugged Yun Xiao and increased his speed once again. However, he turned to look at Yun Xiao. There was more and more blood on her feet. If she did not treat the wound, then this foot would probably be crippled.
However, time would not stop, and the pursuers would not let them off!
Give them time to heal their wounds.
“Take out a bottle of medicine from me first and apply medicine to your feet,” Rong Jin instructed in a deep voice. The speed under his feet did not stop at all.
Yun Xiao’s expression was also terrifyingly gloomy. She naturally knew what her feet were like now, so she did not refuse immediately. She took out a bottle of medicine from Rong Jin’s embrace, and Rong Jin adjusted Yun Xiao’s posture at the right time so that Yun Xiao could apply medicine to herself.
He turned around and saw that there were already quite a few pursuers chasing after him.
Standing halfway up the mountain, Rong Jin could clearly see that there were already densely packed soldiers standing on the ground, surrounding the entire mountain.
Not only this mountain, but also the flames nearby were trembling. Clearly, more and more soldiers were coming to capture the two of them.
Both the path of origin and the path down the mountain had been blocked! The two of them had no other path to take!
Not only was Rong Jin constantly observing the mountains here, but Yun Xiao was also constantly looking at the entire Imperial Mausoleum. Other than the mountains, there was nothing else.
Since their path of origin was blocked, it was impossible for the two of them to follow the cave they had fallen from before and return to the land above. They had no choice but to find another way out.
There were more and more pursuers behind them, not giving them the slightest chance to think. However, Rong Jin suddenly stopped. He lowered his head and looked at the calm-faced woman in his arms, “Are you afraid?”
Yun Xiao withdrew her eyebrows and chuckled, then said loudly, “I’m afraid, but I believe that I definitely won’t die here!”
Hearing Yun Xiao’s words, Rong Jin patted Yun Xiao’s back twice and smiled lightly. “Don’t worry, I won’t let you die here. Let’s rush out!”
After he finished speaking, He then turned his gaze to a few large stones not far away. He quickly rushed over and kicked down a few large stones with great difficulty. A few large stones had no place to hide and there was no mountain rock to stop them. Along the way, they rolled down the hillside. Dust splashed all over the ground, and many small stones quickly rolled down.
When Rong Jin saw the momentum created by these rocks, a faint smile appeared in the depths of his deep eyes.
Just as he was about to turn around and walk down with Yun Xiao, he suddenly noticed that there was a very large stone not far from him. That stone was even taller than him!
With a thought, he brought Yun Xiao over. The stones that had fallen earlier were indeed not small, but they were not enough to cause the people below the mountain to feel too much fear, let alone the threat that those stones could pose was too small.
He wasted a lot of strength before finally pushing the rock that was even taller than him, causing it to roll down.
Seeing this, Rong Jin hugged Yun Xiao tightly and followed the big rock down the mountain.
The two of them hid behind the boulder. It was very difficult for others to discover that they were able to unexpectedly attack it.
The people behind the mountain continued to chase after him. Seeing many stones rolling down, they all said loudly, “Those two have gone down the mountain. Don’t let them escape!”
The people at the foot of the mountain could only see the torches raised high by the soldiers on the mountain, reflecting the falling rocks. At that moment, they could only see huge rocks rolling down the hillside, bringing dust all over the ground. How could they be able to tell which big rock Rong Jin and Yun Xiao were hiding behind?
It was also at this moment that an extremely fast boulder fell down. When the leader below saw this, he said loudly, “Retreat! Retreat!”
Even if they were able to kill people, there was nothing they could do when they looked at these incoming boulders.
Some people didn’t retreat in time and were suppressed by the falling boulders. For a moment, the scene became chaotic, and the sounds of pain and saving lives became even louder!
How could there be such an awe-inspiring scene from before?
However, after the first boulder fell, the following boulder continued to fall, forcing the soldiers to stay far away, but they did not dare to step forward. In the end, they could only form an encirclement and surround the scene.
Yun Xiao and Rong Jin saw that the huge rock they had been hiding was about to land on the ground, and their eyebrows were filled with a trace of calm, as well as countless boldness.
Rong Jin’s feet followed behind the boulder urgently. Occasionally, he would reveal his head to examine the current situation of the two of them. Seeing the soldiers and surrounding the boulder, a trace of caution appeared in the depths of his eyes!
