Chapter 455

Knowing that Xiao Li had returned to the capital, Cao Mo got into the carriage and rushed back to the capital overnight.The night gradually fell, and Cao Mo also felt a little tired. He leaned against the window, closed his eyes, and wanted to rest for a while to refresh himself.

The carriage wobbled up the mountain road, waking Cao Mo up from time to time.The mountain road was rugged, and the speed of the carriage slowed down a lot.At dawn, I don't know if I can reach the capital.

In order to prevent her father from being taken back to the country, Nalan Shixue also hired a carriage and fled overnight.In the dead of night, the valley looked extremely scary.Nalan Shixue in the carriage couldn't help but feel scared, and hugged her body tightly, hoping that the sky would light up soon.

But the night has just begun, how can time be so fast.

"Master, can you hurry up?"

"I said girl, it's not like you don't know that this mountain road is difficult to walk, and it's still late at night, making it even more difficult."

Hearing what the coachman said, Nalan Shixue couldn't hurry anymore.She also knows that it is not easy to drive at night, but she can't stop, she doesn't want to go back to her country.

After putting down the curtain, Nalan Shixue returned to the carriage, drowsy, but never dared to fall asleep.

Surrounded by mountains, from time to time there were a few howling wolves, which seemed terrifying in this silent valley.Nalan Shixue frowned, closed her eyes and dared not imagine any more.

Her heart was beating even faster, and she always felt that something bad was waiting for her...

In order to prevent her from thinking wildly, she wanted to fall asleep as soon as possible, but the strange sound coming from her ears made her nerves tense even more, and she dared not relax all the time.

"Ow!"

Nalan Shixue covered her ears, desperately preventing those sounds from entering her ears.Suddenly, the carriage stopped violently, and Nalan Shixue fell down, hitting a corner and her painful face was pulled up.

"Master, what's the matter?"

"Boss, there is a woman!"

The bandit boy was immediately excited when he heard a woman's voice in the carriage.I didn't expect them to pick up such a treasure in the middle of the night.Only then did Nalan Shixue understand what was going on...

It turned out that bandits were going to grab the carriage.There was nowhere to escape right now, Nalan Shixue opened the curtain, and the face of a bandit was magnified in front of her eyes, so scared that she accidentally fell back again.

"Hehe, such a beautiful woman, brothers, blessed."

The bandit leader laughed loudly, showing his yellow teeth and a foul smell.Nalan Shixue knew that she would not be able to escape, so she could only choose to beg for mercy. "Please let me go, I have money, I will give it to you."

He took down his own burden and wanted to use money to drive away the bandits.But their eyes were obviously tossing and turning on her body, Nalan Shixue hugged herself in fear, shaking her head desperately.

In any case, she couldn't be defiled like this.

"We all want money and women. Especially when a beautiful woman like you is in front of you, why don't you want it?"

"Brother, I'm going to you guys! Don't touch me, let me go!"

The thieves pulled Nalan Shixue out of the carriage, and planned to take it back to the village to enjoy it.Nalan Shixue naturally refused, she lay on the ground and refused to get up.

The boss was furious, he didn't care that she was a woman, so he slapped her.With burning pain on her face, Nalan Shixue's tears couldn't stop falling down, her body trembling with grievance, she was so scared that she couldn't speak.

"Give me some knowledge and take it away."

Cao Mo's carriage just arrived here, and a loud noise woke Cao Mo up.He opened the curtain and looked outside to see what was going on.

"It seems that a carriage was robbed by bandits, and it was a woman."

When Nalan Shixue cried, Cao Mo got out of the carriage and walked forward.Nalan Shixue saw Cao Mo approaching, and tried to move over to ask for help step by step. "If you don't want to die, get out of here."

Cao Mo sneered, bullying women is nothing.He stepped forward quickly and immediately knocked down the strong bandit leader, leaving the weak and weak two standing on the ground and looking at each other.

The people who did not expect to come should not be underestimated, and their momentum dropped a lot for a while.

"What are you still doing in a daze, give it to me."

The bandit leader stood up unhappily, took out his big knife and led his brothers to rush up.Cao Mo casually grabbed a thick branch from the side to deal with them.

No matter how the branch could withstand the big knife, it was cut off in an instant, but the big knife in his hand also fell to the side.Taking advantage of this moment, Cao Mo rushed forward and kicked his arm, causing him to fall to the ground moaning in pain.

"Big brother!"

Cao Mo immediately stepped forward, pulled Nalan Shixue away, and returned to his carriage.

The frightened Shixue Xiaoniao hid in Cao Mo's arms, her tears were still falling desperately, apparently she hadn't recovered yet.Cao Mo took out his water bottle and handed it to Shi Xue.

"Drink."

Shi Xue nodded gratefully, and took it with trembling hands, just because she was afraid of shaking so badly that she almost dropped it.When Cao Mo saw her, he took the water bottle, and personally fed Shi Xue a few sips of water, feeling overwhelmed.

"It's still early, go to bed."

He gently took out a warm coat and covered her body, and lent his shoulders for her to rest.Shi Xue felt extremely relieved, and closed her eyes obediently.

Cao Mo tilted his head and glanced at his arm. His clothes were torn, and the blood was still bubbling.It seems that we must quickly find an inn for a temporary stay.

When it was daylight, Cao Mo arrived at a simple inn at the foot of the mountain, and asked for the two best rooms.Shi Xue also woke up, her eyes were still blurred, and her mood was not very stable.

Cao Mo was so concerned that someone brought her a bowl of steaming porridge, and after he ate a few bites, he went to the doctor's bazaar to fix the wound.

After sleeping until the afternoon, Cao Mo had no choice but to get up and open the door when there was a slight knock on the door. Nalan Shixue stood at the door with a pale face. "Thank you so much for saving me last night."

Cao Mo sobered up a lot and nodded. "Need not."

Nalan Shixue stood at the door and didn't know what to say... There were many words of gratitude, but she didn't know what to say.At this moment, she saw the bandaged wound on Cao Mo's hand, and it was only then that Nalan Shixue knew that he was injured.

"your hands……"

Cao Mo raised his hand, realizing that she was talking about his wounds, he waved his hands and said that he was fine, but it was just minor injuries.

Nalan Shixue was a little guilty, he could pretend to be invisible, but he still sacrificed himself to save himself, a warm current surged in his heart, and he lowered his head moved.

"Thank you very much, I will definitely repay your kindness."

Looking up, he saw Cao Mo's black pupils staring at her, his face was slightly hot, and he couldn't help but blush.After saying this, Nalan Shixue left as if fleeing.

Frowning, he watched Nalan's figure disappear into the room, then closed the door and continued to rest.She didn't say what Nalan Shixue said at all and took it to heart.The next day, Nalan Shixue and Cao Mo parted ways.

"Brother Cao, I will definitely repay you." The firmness in Nalan Shixue's eyes made Cao Mo believe it at this moment... So what she said was not false.

Arriving at the Prince's Mansion, Cao Mo met Huangfu Haotian as soon as he entered.I took a few glances inside, but I didn't see Xiao Li's figure.Huangfu Haotian sized Cao Mo up and asked, "Are you looking for Xiao Li?"

Cao Mo nodded, he wanted to see Xiao Li, he knew Xiao Li must be here.Huangfu Haotian was somewhat reluctant, hesitated for a while, and agreed.He was afraid that Xiao Li would complain that he didn't trust her, and now he is no longer like this.

"Thank you." After Cao Mo said that, he walked into the backyard, and Xiao Li sat in the yard to enjoy the flowers.

Seeing Cao Mo approaching from a distance, Xiao Li thought he was being blindsided, but it turned out that it was Cao Mo who came. "Why are you here?" Xiao Li was surprised and delighted, got up to greet Cao Mo, and sat down together.

Cao Mo smiled, and finally met the person whom he had been thinking about day and night, and rushed over as soon as he heard about her.The emotion in Cao Mo's eyes made Xiao Li afraid to look directly at him.

"Are you ok?"

"You can also see that I'm really fine." Xiao Li's face was filled with a happy smile. Seeing her smiling so happily, Cao Mo also knew that she was living a very good life and lived a very happy life with Huangfu Haotian. with.I couldn't help but feel a little jealous, but I was very grateful for her happiness.

The two exchanged a few words of pleasantries, Cao Mo suddenly remembered that he had met Xiao Li in Qiu Yuanguo eight years ago, and he said it together, waiting for Xiao Li's answer with full anticipation.Unexpectedly, Xiao Li's face was a little more shocked, and he was speechless for a while.

Eight years ago... she was obviously not in Qiu Yuanguo.

"Did you remember correctly?" Cao Mo frowned, how could he remember such a thing wrongly.Cao Mo shook his head, he remembered clearly, he must have seen the princess when she was parading the streets.

Since Cao Mo remembers it so clearly, he must have seen her before. However, she was not in Qiu Yuanguo... Surprised, Xiao Li remembered Li Ling who was exactly like him. What Cao Mo saw must have the same identity as him. Li Ling with an open face.

"No, that's not me, it's another woman, her name is Li Ling, she looks the same as me."

Xiao Li's explanation also shocked Cao Mo even more... The fact turned out to be like this, so wouldn't his following for a long time be all wrong?No, he was clearly in love with Xiao Li.

Xiao Li smiled helplessly, knowing that Cao Mo still misses the scene he saw when he was a child, but it's a pity that it wasn't her.

"It's been wrong to follow you for so many years. What you see is not me, and it's not me you like." One sentence broke Cao Mo's thoughts, and Cao Mo was speechless for a moment.

How could things have changed so much? It's not Xiao Li, there are people who are exactly the same in the world... Cao Mo smiled bitterly, and his heart became dull.Seeing that he was silent, Xiao Li didn't say anything more, it would be good if Cao Mo could really understand his intentions.She was just treated as that person's substitute, and what Cao Mo loved was just that one-sided relationship.
