Quick Travel: The cannon fodder female partner counterattacks the heartthrob

Chapter 68 The shield of a woman disguising herself as a man (19)

It wasn't until later that he finally understood.

What does the phrase 'get used to' mean?

He had just taken two mouthfuls of food when he heard a sudden sound breaking through the air.

What followed was that person's words.

"careful!"

Gu Nian kicked the wooden table over, then quickly pulled him around his waist and rolled around on the ground.

They saw that the wooden table and the seats before them had been pierced by willow leaf-shaped darts.

It is conceivable that if they had not avoided it just now, they must have become two corpses.

Being hugged unexpectedly, He Yanshu was still a little confused about the situation.

"What happened?"

However, when He Yanshu saw the hidden weapons that were nailed to the wooden table and chairs, He Yanshu's expression instantly became solemn.

A wry smile appeared on Gu Nian's lips, "It seems that I have caused trouble for you."

He Yanshu also realized at this time that it seemed that these people were coming for Gu Nian.

"No matter whether we are involved or not, good brothers should share weal and woe!"

He Yanshu smiled carelessly and said, "That's right."

If Gu Nian had not saved him that day, he might have ceased to exist in this world.

However, Gu Nian's mood did not relax. It was impossible for these people to let her go easily.

"It's not a good place to stay here for a long time. The top priority is that we still need to leave as soon as possible."

He Yanshu looked at the solemn expression on Gu Nian's face and realized that the assassin was not evil and it might be difficult to escape.

He nodded quickly, and just as he was about to stand up, he suddenly felt that his brain was in chaos.

His consciousness was groggy, as if he had been drained of all his strength.

He tried to use even a little bit of inner strength in his body, but he couldn't move even a little bit or use it.

He staggered back a few steps uncontrollably, and even stood a little unsteadily.

Here Gu Nian noticed something strange about him and quickly helped him up.

"What's wrong with you?" When he said this, Gu Nian already had a vague suspicion in his heart.

"I...suddenly feel like I have no strength left in my body."

When Gu Nian heard this, his expression changed slightly.

"They may have drugged this meal. I have encountered too many assassinations, so I usually don't touch these meals. But I didn't expect that they could kill me even in such a remote place."

"It's all my fault. I thought they were just targeting me, but I didn't expect that they would also implicate you."

Gu Nian's face was full of guilt, but he didn't dare to waste any time.

The carriage must not be saved, and now, they can only leave through the back door.

I just hope it can be delayed for a while.

She lifted him up with difficulty and walked towards the back door step by step.

However, just halfway through, several men in black suddenly appeared in front of her.

The cold blade glowed with silver in the falling twilight.

Without saying any nonsense, the man in black raised his hand and thrust the dagger straight towards Gu Nian.

Gu Nian, who was still carrying He Yanshu with her at this time, struggled to avoid the dagger being stabbed at her, but was still accidentally stabbed in the shoulder. Blood instantly poured out and wet her snow-white clothes.

She couldn't help but groan in pain.

He Yanshu was powerless at this moment and could only watch her blood pouring out quietly, her pale face, and the merciless movements of the killers, but he could not move even a single inch.

He knew that he was a burden at this time. Not only could he not help her, but he also made her restrained because of him, for fear of hurting him.

He couldn't help but said: "Put me down!"

Gu Nian seemed to hear his words and paused slightly. However, the next moment, there was another sound of a dagger entering flesh.He Yanshu's heart suddenly tightened, he knew.

She was distracted by herself.

He didn't dare to say any more for fear of hurting her again.

Gu Nian didn't let him go, even though his body was almost covered in blood and broken, she didn't let him get even the slightest bit of harm.

When she finally eliminated all the killers, she couldn't help but staggered, and then fell heavily to the ground.

He Yanshu was also forced to fall to the ground. He was wearing a sky blue brocade robe, and the original color was almost invisible at this moment.

His body was also covered in blood, but the blood was not his.

At this time, in the backyard of the teahouse, countless bodies of men in black were lying scattered.

And this entire land was almost completely soaked in blood, and the pressure of blood rushing towards the face made people unable to breathe in their chests.

He Yanshu's heart trembled as he looked at Gu Nian, who fell to the ground so exhausted that his breath was so weak that he could hardly feel it.

"Are you okay? He Muheng, how are you? You can't sleep!"

However, Gu Nian couldn't respond to him, she was too tired.

She had to keep an eye on him at all times while being highly concentrated, and she even suffered countless stab wounds on her body.

She has reached her limit.

He tried his best to stand up, but just as he stabilized his body, his legs weakened and he knelt down again.

He hated himself so much that he couldn't help or say anything, and he was dragging others down like a burden.

If he had known earlier, he would never have eaten that bite of food even if he starved to death!
After lying on the ground for more than an hour, he finally felt that his body had regained some strength.

He Yanshu moved his somewhat stiff body and finally stood up.

He couldn't wait to run to Gu Nian, and then felt Gu Nian's breathing, and the tight string finally relaxed.

Fortunately, she is still alive.

Most of the blood on her body had almost dried up. He tore off his sleeves and carefully bandaged the wound without any delay.

He started his Qinggong and quickly flew towards He Mansion.

After it was finally confirmed that Gu Nian's life was not in danger, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

It was only then that he finally understood.

The environment in which she lived was never as peaceful and happy as he imagined.

Just for the danger he saw, he would do it no more than three times.

And her expressions, movements, and words all told him.

She was used to it.

Growing up in a crisis-ridden world and escaping from danger are all commonplace.

He also finally understood.

What did she mean when she said 'want to live' that day.

What does she mean by 'getting used to it'.

However, these pains were clearly not what she should have experienced.

He is obviously the one who should bear all this pain!
He suddenly remembered that when he saw her teaching those two people in the student hall, he felt spurned, insulted and unbearable thoughts towards her in his heart.

But now, think about it again.

Underneath that seemingly cold appearance, there is clearly a gentle and passionate heart!

She has grown up in the crisis of being fed by wolves and tigers since she was a child. It is obvious that they are existences that can be crushed to death by her fingers, but——

　Second more!
