famous eldest daughter

Chapter 378 Forking
When no one was attacking, Xiao Yu took Gu Yuqing's hand, domineering yet gentle, and said: "It's fine if you want. Just rest assured and see how I destroy them."

That way, like a peerless hero, invincible in the world.

Gu Yuqing laughed heartily and at the same time, the corner of her mouth trembled, "Ah... you heard it!"

Xiao Yu smiled and rubbed Gu Yuqing's hair, "I can hear your words no matter how quiet you are. I don't listen with my ears, I listen here." As he said this, he took Gu Yuqing's hand and put it on his chest. , the soft light in the eyes is filled with warmth, hot and hot, like fine sand under the blazing sun.

The hot temperature came from her chest, and Gu Yuqing's fingers trembled slightly.

They look like this...it's not like escaping by knife's edge.

Suddenly, she remembered the last time she was assassinated by King Duan. The situation was similar to this. It was clear that behind her was an enemy wielding a long sword. She nestled in front of him, filled with peace of mind.

It seemed that as long as Xiao Yu was around, all dangers seemed insignificant.

Now it is again.

After turning this sharp turn, there was a wide river in front of them. They missed the best place to attack. The Tianque disciples had no choice but to rush along the river bank and wait for the next opportunity.

Although the charming love is sweet, in the end, they are two mentally mature people, they still understand their priorities, and they also understand that the future is long and the days are long.

After a moment of staring, Gu Yuqing withdrew her hand from Xiao Yu's palm with trembling fingers and continued making the "hidden weapon" she had just made.

But there were so many people in black on the shore that it was impossible to count them at a glance. She brought a total of five small medicine bottles with her when she came out of her ancestral home. One of them was killed by him because she bit the ear of a long-faced man in black. He threw his shoulders and fell down, taking the opportunity to hide at the bottom of the carriage, leaving a mark for Xiao Yu along the way.

At this time, I only had four small bottles on me.

There was medicine in one of the bottles, so naturally I had to keep the medicine powder just in case.

The only things she could use to smash them into hidden weapons were three small porcelain bottles no more than the size of a palm. No matter how good Xiao Yu was in martial arts and his bullets were perfect, he still couldn't annihilate all the enemies with these so-called hidden weapons.

What's more, this thing has limited effects.

Once the enemy reached the tree platoon or they were forced ashore, it was of little use.

What she could think of, Xiao Yu could naturally think of.

Fortunately, as Xiao Yu had just said, he rounded the last bend in front of him and turned to the village.

There was a flash flood and it was at the base of the city wall. The emperor would definitely use manpower and material resources to deal with the disaster. Xiao Yu was a majestic prince. No matter how arrogant the people of Tianque were, they would not dare to intercept and kill him in front of all the court officials.

While he kept moving his hands and frowning, he suddenly heard a breathless exclamation from Xiao Yu.

To be able to make Xiao Yu, who has always been a clear moon, so panicked, Gu Yuqing was so frightened that his hands trembled, and the porcelain piece in his hand slipped. He turned his head and looked in the direction of Xiao Yu's line of sight, "What's wrong..."

Before she finished speaking, Xiao Yu didn't need to explain. She was shocked by the scene in front of her, and her mouth trembled slightly, and her face couldn't help but become solemn.

It is clear that the direction of the village is the direction you turn, but the turn you want to turn is blocked by countless huge stones. Behind the stones, the river is exposed, and only a small amount of floodwater flows through the gaps between the stones, and the water surface is insufficient. Submerge the bottom of the river.

Most of the water flows along an obviously newly opened river to a completely unfamiliar place.

In fact, it is not a river at all, it is just a chasm that is about to be dug. It seems that someone was worried that the flood would flow down the river and destroy the villages beside the river. As an emergency, this chasm was dug in a hurry to divert the water. .

Now that the water situation is under control, they blocked the river leading to the village road with stones and diverted the water elsewhere.

But doing so is tantamount to drinking poison to quench thirst.

The newly dug river channel in a hurry must not be too long, unless it is connected with the existing river channel. Otherwise, when the flood fills the river channel, the result will be the same as a second flood, with double the casualties.

Who was fully responsible for this flood fighting work, and was able to resort to such self-destructive methods? She could have imagined the result, but others could not have imagined it at all?

Gu Yuqing shook her head heartily.

Then there is only one other possibility, that is, someone wants to kill her and Xiao Yu, and this person is not Xiao Duo. He just takes advantage of Xiao Duo's murderous intention and wants to kill someone with a borrowed knife.

This person knew very well that Xiao Duo had sent Tianque, and as long as they were not killed by the flood, Tianque would intercept and kill them all the way.

His actions cut off her and Xiao Yu's way back to the village and forced them into a desperate situation.

Who is this person?
According to Xiao Yu's analysis just now, it is definitely not Xiao Yi. Xiao Yi doesn't intend to let Xiao Yu die so early!
But besides Xiao Yi, could there be a third party force in the court... Inexplicably, Gu Yuqing suddenly thought of the rosewood box in her home, the wooden box containing the glass bottle sealed with bright yellow brocade.

Could the owner of the object in the glass bottle be this third-party force?

Gu Yuqing's heart trembled suddenly. At the same time as her heart trembled, the tree rows under her body also trembled violently. Fortunately, Xiao Yu grabbed her tightly, otherwise, with her light body, she would have just done that. A violent shaking might have thrown her out of the water.

Grasping Gu Yuqing tightly, Xiao Yu looked at the fork in front of him, a sneer appeared on his tense face, and he said with a sharp edge: "It seems that someone doesn't want me to go back."

Gu Yuqing nodded, "Since someone can make such preparations, it must be just in case. There is also a lot of murderous intent on the other side of the river. Compared with the danger lurking in the dark, the sky tower in front of us is not so scary. "

A cold light flashed in Xiao Yu's eyes, and he said: "It's easy to dodge open guns and hard to avoid hidden arrows, but..."

After saying that, Xiao Yu took a deep breath, turned around and held Gu Yuqing's delicate face, "This time, I will let you suffer."

Gu Yuqing shook his head, obviously there was not much fluctuation in his heart, but the tears just fell down unobediently, sliding down his cheeks and onto Xiao Yu's fingers, "If you hadn't saved me, why would you have suffered this disaster?"

Xiao Yu moved his hand upward and wiped her tears, "Are you afraid?"

Gu Yuqing shook his head, "Don't be afraid. You said it. With you here, I don't have to be afraid of anything."

This one sentence is worth a thousand words.

Xiao Yu's eyes trembled, and with a little force on his hands, he held Gu Yuqing to his chest, lowered his head and kissed her hair gently. In an instant, a cold light condensed in his eyes.

"Sit tight. Since someone won't let me go back to this village, I won't go back, but..." He leaned forward and lay on the tree row. He held the tree row with one hand and reached under the water with the other hand. I don’t know what I’m fishing for.

Seeing this, Gu Yuqing was afraid that Xiao Yu would fall, so she quickly hugged his waist tightly and pressed her lips into a thin line.
