Chapter 298 Night Attack
Night came quietly.

The carriage failed to arrive at the inn before sunset, so they could only rest in the large carriage. Fortunately, the interior of the carriage was exquisite, with blankets, a heater, and wall lamps, which were more comfortable than the small rooms in the Guandao Rest Inn.

The guards guarding the carriage yawned and took turns to change shifts. At a moment's notice, there was a strange and crisp whistle in the mountains. It was neither light nor heavy, but it made people feel bad.

At this moment, a noise tore through the quiet night.

Then, there was a sound of shouting and killing, and countless black shadows surrounded them from all directions. From a distance, there were no less than twenty people in the formation, but they all came running, except for two men, one fat and one thin, holding torches riding a horse.

They were wearing black face scarves and rough clothes of different colors. They were gangster-like from head to toe, and they all held shiny white knives in their hands.Judging from the big commotion they made, it was probably the bandits in the mountains.

Seven or eight guards raised their swords to protect the carriage.

These guards have all been killed on the battlefield, and it is no problem to say that one is worth three. Even if there are too many people besieging them, they have not lost their momentum.

When Ye Lingwu and Shen Pan'er were still anxious, Cheng Guyuan pushed open the door and stood out, her aura was no less than that of the guards protecting the carriage.

If it were someone else, they would have been hiding far away, but who is Cheng Guyuan, even if she is pregnant with Liujia and cannot carry a gun or draw a sword, she will not be a coward.

"You guys are so courageous that you dare to hijack them on the official road." Cheng Guyuan glanced at them without the slightest timidity.

The masked strong man squeezed his triangular eyes and said nothing. A thin middle-aged man approached beside him and said in a low voice, "Boss, they are from Ningbei Houfu, we must not let them go."

Although there were only thirty or so bandits in this wave, they roared loudly and fought fiercely, making people frightened, not like bandits.

The guards charge forward on horseback, and they know how to hold up their spears to resist horses; when it comes to close combat, the gangsters can move freely, all of them are not weak in martial arts.

Here is a road in the middle of a mountain forest, with dense forests on both sides. It is not easy for the two maidservants with horses to see the visitors. In order to ensure the safety of the three girls and Cheng Guyuan's unborn baby, the guards can only continue to resist. , They took the opportunity to take the girls out of danger.

A four-horse carriage is not as light as an ordinary carriage, let alone a horse. The two maidservants driving the horses can only drive the horses to the nearest city of Los Angeles.

The car body was swaying, and Cheng Guyuan's face in the carriage was not good-looking. Ye Lingwu saw that she was sweating profusely, and said worriedly, "Sister Guyuan, are you feeling unwell?"

Cheng Guyuan shook her head, forced a smile: "No problem, we have to hurry to Luocheng."

Shen Pan'er frowned: "Second sister-in-law, don't be brave, if those people really come at us, our carriage will be overtaken sooner or later."

Sensing the seriousness of the situation, Ye Lingwu said solemnly, "What can we do? Even at the current speed, we are at least two hours away from Los Angeles."

Cheng Guyuan lowered her eyes in thought, then held her stomach and discussed with the maid outside for a while.

The carriage stopped, and two servants supported Cheng Guyuan to step down on the horse stool, and then Ye Lingwu and Shen Pan'er jumped out of the carriage one after the other.

It is not advisable to stay here for a long time. After the maidservant was terminated, Shen Pan'er and Ye Lingwu led the way, and Cheng Guyuan was supported by the two of them. The famous military maid continued to drive towards Luocheng along the official road.

There is thick snow everywhere in the mountains, and the broken maidservant used a long sword in her hand to remove the footsteps left by several people one by one. The situation in Luocheng is complicated. It's not easy for people either.

After running for an unknown amount of time, they saw a wisp of cooking smoke drifting slowly into the night, and they finally found a family living in the mountains.

But before she had time to rejoice, Cheng Guyuan's face became more and more ugly, until she couldn't catch her breath, she slowly fell to the ground leaning on the tree stump, moaning weakly.

"Sister Guyuan!" Ye Lingwu exclaimed.

Under the moonlight, several people could see clearly that Cheng Guyuan's skirt was stained with blood, which was dyed red together with the snow on the ground.

Shen Pan'er was startled suddenly, and cried loudly: "Second sister-in-law!"

The maidservant felt cold in her heart, she knelt down and said, "Young lady, hold on, and this maidservant will carry you to that family's house to rest."

After finishing speaking, the maidservant looked at the two maidservants again, and said sincerely: "I also ask the two of you to help put the young lady on the maidservant's back."

Cheng Guyuan was so painful that she fell into a faint, and the blood dripped all over the road, which was shocking.

Shen Pan'er kept crying, but didn't dare to delay the matter. Seeing that the gate of the house surrounded by fences was closed, she yelled loudly: "Is anyone there?! Human life is at stake, please help!!"

After a while, candles lit the windows of the hut.

The door was pushed open with a creak, and the old woman in a thick jacket poked her head out and looked at the figures outside the courtyard.

……

……

There was a brazier burning in the hut, and dimly lit candles.

A copper pot that was gurgling and smoking was burning on the stove. The maidservant hurriedly brought cold water from the yard, lifted the copper pot, poured the hot water into the cold water and made it warm, and Ye Lingwu carried it in. back room.

In the inner room, Cheng Guyuan was lying on the simple bed crying in pain, Shen Pan'er knelt by the bed and kept wiping her cold sweat, the two servants and the old woman were in a state of anxiety.

"Oh, yes, the amniotic fluid has broken!" said Nanny Li.

Shen Pan'er was stunned for a moment, trembling all over, recalling the night when she was conceived in a trance, the room was icy cold, she was lying on the bed covered in blood, she could only hear the envoy's constant noise in her ear Call the doctor.

When she regained consciousness from the coma, the four-month-old fetus in her womb was gone, and she didn't even know whether it was a boy or a girl.

However, Pei Huai did not return home for more than half a month after that night, not even a word of condolences, only those elders of the Pei family who were accustomed to hypocrisy sent a word or two of comfort every day.

Occasionally, she would also hear the servants in her courtyard discussing.

To say that she was stupid, but she was born into a wealthy family but was willing to marry into Pei's family, she deserved what happened to her.

Said she is blind, the master of the Pei family is notoriously promiscuous, and the mistress of the Pei family is from Fireworks and Willow Lane. The upper beam is not straight and the lower beam is crooked. Will break with the family for such a person.

It is said that she is naive, spoiled since she was a child and grew up as a noble lady of the Hou family. She doesn't know what it's like to be in dire straits. It's not surprising that she is here today. If you want to blame, you can only blame yourself for not being magnanimous and not capable of controlling your husband. Husband takes concubines, otherwise how can my husband miss the wild flowers outside.
