Tangled

Chapter 104 Finding Her

She felt like a mouse surrounded by countless cats, no matter where she ran, she would end up in the same end.

The flames approached from all directions, and seeing the distance getting closer and closer, she exhausted all her strength, and finally stopped in despair.

If you can't get out no matter how hard you struggle, it's better not to bother.

She bent down with her hands on her back, panting continuously with her mouth open, before the guards had completely surrounded her, she looked around, and finally sat down on the ground.

She was sweating and rolled on the ground again, the clothes on her body were so dirty that the original color could not be seen.

After the dark spots on her face were smudged by sweat, her entire face was painted black.

At this time, she was dirty all over, and she was sitting on the ground in a self-defeating manner. She didn't have the slightest appearance of a lady, she was just like a little beggar in the market.

The flames gradually approached, and finally she was surrounded by a huge crowd of people. At that time, the fire sticks that made a sound of explosion from time to time made her want to find a place to sneak in.

It's really unlucky today, and she will never come again if she encounters this kind of thing next time.

"Master said, no matter who it is, anyone who trespasses in my Shao Mansion will be shot to death."

"Kill him!"

Knowing that they were cruel, Shen Qiqi did not expect them to be so cruel, and killed them without even interrogating them.

"Wait!"

Just when one of them came over with a knife, Shen Qiqi hurriedly shouted to stop.

"Do you know who I am? I am the aunt of your master Xinna. If you kill me, the master will kneel down and commit the crime. Which one of you can afford it?"

After saying this, everyone fell silent, and everyone looked left and right, not daring to move again.

The person who came forward with the knife was a little hesitant. The master said that trespassing on the mansion is fine, but if this person is Xinna's aunt, then it is not trespassing.

"Which of you has seen Xinna's aunt?"

Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, they knew about the master taking a concubine today, but the sedan chair was carried directly into the courtyard, and never came down, how could they see it?

Seeing that this trick was useful to them, Shen Qiqi cleared her throat, and continued: "You know the master's temperament, if you kill me indiscriminately, he will definitely not let you go."

"You said that you are a new aunt, do you have any evidence?"

The other party's scrutinizing eyes were too obvious, Shen Qiqi looked at herself with dirty eyes, and felt that the current appearance was really unconvincing.

She took out the handkerchief and wiped it casually on her face. After wiping off some of the ink on her face, she reached out and pointed at her face.

"Look, my face is just ink, it doesn't just look like this."

"If you don't believe me, go and invite the master over to have a look, then it will be clear."

"By the way, bring me a basin of water before inviting the master here, don't even recognize me after the master comes."

Shen Qiqi didn't know if these words could scare them, she just wanted to delay for a while, but fortunately, although they didn't quite believe it, they didn't act rashly.

"You guys, go ask the master to come over, you, go get a basin of water."

The man who spoke seemed to be the leader of these people. After he finished speaking, the few people who were pointed out left in different directions.

After the person left, the man came out and looked down at her.

"You'd better not play any tricks, or I'll tie you up and feed you to the snake."

Thinking of how those snakes seemed to be afraid of her, Shen Qiqi thought to herself that she might as well feed the snakes instead of falling into your hands.

A group of people gathered here just to see her a woman who has no strength to restrain a chicken, it seems a bit overkill.

The man thought for a while, waved his hand, and asked some of the nurses to continue to search, while he led the rest of the staff to guard here.

The guard who was called to fetch water did not come back until everyone had disappeared.

The basin of water was placed in front of him, and the man stared at him intently, silently urging himself to wash his face quickly.

Shen Qiqi bit her lip, she really didn't want to make a move.

There was a layer of black ink on her face, and she always felt that she still had a protective shield. If she washed it off, the little sense of security that remained would be gone.

Just as she was hesitating, a long knife suddenly stretched out towards her, and the tip of the knife was only one finger away from her.

She was startled, and subconsciously leaned back, but when she raised her eyes, she suddenly saw a figure jumping on the wall not far away.

Seeing that figure running towards her, she pursed her lips and smiled, as if all the stars in the sky got into her eyes at this moment.

"Don't play tricks, wash it quickly."

The man was dazzled by her eyes full of spring, and after feeling out of control, his long knife followed closely.

Although the point of the knife was about to poke her face, Shen Qiqi didn't panic at all.

She glanced at the water in front of her, moved her eyeballs, and made an extremely provocative move—kicked the water basin over.

"I just don't wash, what can you do to me!"

She raised her head high, exposing the most vulnerable place, and looked at him provocatively, her bright eyes seemed to say: I'm going to play a trick, if you have the ability, do it.

The man was so angry by her actions, the hand holding the knife moved, but he didn't dare to cut it.

Her confident appearance seemed to be exactly what she said, she was the master's new concubine.

But being provoked by a woman in front of so many people, if he doesn't do something, he really can't get down.

With so many pairs of eyes watching from his back, he gritted his teeth, thinking that he could give her a slap to save his face.

If she is really the master's new concubine, if the master asks about it, she can cover it up by herself.

After thinking about the countermeasure, he was about to make a move, but he heard a cold and doting voice behind him.

"Why are you so naughty?"

The sudden sound frightened him, he didn't know who it was, but Xiao Wusheng knew behind them, but they didn't realize it.

He suddenly turned his head to look, but saw the man standing not far away. Before he was touched by others, the man tapped his toes and walked through the crowd to the front after a few leaps.

Gu Tingshu picked up Shen Qiqi, looked her up and down, saw that she was only a little dirty and not injured, and finally felt relieved.

"Cover your eyes, I'll take care of these people and let's go."

Shen Qiqi, who came back from the mountain, smiled happily. After hearing Gu Tingshu's words, she nodded obediently and closed her eyes with great reassurance.

Knowing that the movement here would soon attract all the guards, Gu Tingshu stopped keeping him, and opened and closed every move without mercy.

The screams and the smell of blood came over at the same time, Shen Qiqi covered her eyes tightly, not daring to peek.
