Daughter of a High Sect: Abandoned Concubine Reborn

Chapter 272

Ouyang Feixue shook her head and sat up in Yingjie's arms, while Yingyue beside her couldn't hold on anymore and fell into a deep sleep.

When getting out of the car, Yingjie wanted to wake Yingyue up, but Ouyang Feixue stopped her, looking at Yingyue who was sleeping soundly, she said softly, "Let her sleep a little longer."

After getting out of the car, looking at the mess all over the place, it was obvious that they were still one step late.

Wei Qilin dismounted from his horse and walked towards Ouyang Feixue, "It seems that there was a flood and people ran away."

Only then did Ouyang Feixue notice that there was no one on the road, and she immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the people are safe, it will be luck among misfortunes.

"Uncle, let's find out where all the people have gone." Ouyang Feixue looked around, but there was no one there, presumably she ran up the mountain.

"But can you do it? Why don't you go back to the carriage and rest for a while, and I'll take someone to look for it." Wei Qilin saw the heavy shadows in Ouyang Feixue's eyes, worried that she would be too weak for a weak woman.

"It's okay, you forgot that I'm a martial arts practitioner, this bit of suffering is nothing." Ouyang Feixue smiled nonchalantly.

Wei Qilin was still worried, so Ouyang Feixue changed the subject directly, "I think it's heading towards the mountain, let's go and have a look."

Saying that, before Wei Qilin could react, she and Yingjie had already walked forward, shaking their heads helplessly, he had to follow along with a group of followers.

As expected, at the foot of the mountain, Ouyang Feixue saw the common people on the mountain from a distance.

However, there is no way to go up the mountain road washed by the flood, and there is no way to go up because of the mud everywhere.

"Miss, what should we do now?" Yingjie looked at the mountain road in front of her that was impossible to climb, and looked at Ouyang Feixue suspiciously.

Ouyang Feixue also felt worried, they had no way to go up, so these ordinary people had no way, now that the water has receded and the rain finally stopped, staying on the mountain is not a solution.

"Uncle, what can you do?" Ouyang Feixue turned her head to look at Wei Qilin who was thinking thoughtfully.

"I asked them to find some ropes, and now they can only climb up." Wei Qilin frowned and said quietly.

Ouyang Feixue nodded, obviously agreeing with the method Wei Qilin said, and now it can only be like this.

"Okay, I'll go up too." Ouyang Feixue nodded solemnly and said.

"Xue'er, you?????" Wei Qilin showed concern.

"Miss?????" Yingjie was also worried.

"Uncle, it's okay." Ouyang Feixue smiled sweetly at Wei Qilin, but she made up her mind to go up.

Not long after, the accompanying boys finally found a rope that was strong enough and long enough. They are all martial arts practitioners and have experience in mountain climbing, so this is not a difficult task for them. .

Soon, there were twos and threes who went up to meet them first, and they fixed the rope so that the people below could climb up.

Ouyang Feixue had never climbed a mountain before, and her hands were not strong enough, so she was obviously struggling. Yingjie and Wei Qilin watched from below, unavoidably frightened, for fear that she would accidentally fall off.

"Xue'er, are you okay?" Wei Qilin shouted worriedly.

Ouyang Feixue turned her head, forced a smile, and said, "I can do it." But only she knew how pale and labored that smile was.

Seeing that she was about to go up, all her strength seemed to be drained, she gritted her teeth and grasped the rope tightly, until the person above stretched out her hand to hold her, she was slowly relieved.

When she reached the mountain, she fell to the ground, as if all her strength had been exhausted.

After Yingjie and Wei Qilin came up, they looked at the exhausted Ouyang Feixue, her face was pale, and there was no trace of blood on the corners of her lips, and they couldn't help sweating for her.

"Miss, are you okay?" Holding Ouyang Feixue up, Yingjie could feel that she was trembling all over, she leaned softly on her body without any strength.

In this way, she helped her to sit on a rock, and went to fetch some clean water for her.

"Drink some water." Looking at Ouyang Feixue's chapped lips, Yingjie couldn't hide the distress in her eyes. She didn't understand what Ouyang Feixue's persistence was for.

After resting for a while, his physical strength finally recovered.

She stood up from the rock, and Yingjie hurriedly helped her up for fear that she might fall if she lost her balance, but Ouyang Feixue smiled lightly and pushed her hand away.

After patrolling the mountain for a week, Wei Qilin said to her, "Didn't the imperial court send someone here? Where are they?"

Looking around suspiciously, he did not see the real shadows of Ouyang Jinxuan and Schuman, nor did he see any officers and soldiers.

"Could it be down the mountain?" Ouyang Feixue was also not sure, but it seemed that this answer was the most reasonable.

"I'll ask." As she said that, Yingjie walked towards a woman dressed as a peasant woman, and she came back after a while, but her complexion was unusually heavy.

"What's wrong?" Ouyang Feixue looked at Yingjie strangely, she didn't know what she heard, her face was so ugly, but she didn't know that after she heard the news, her face was even uglier than Yingjie's.

"They said that yesterday's flood washed away some officers and soldiers on the embankment, and the rest went to find them?????" Yingjie stopped talking halfway.

She carefully observed Ouyang Feixue's face, fearing that she would be unbearable if she told the news later.

"Do you know who are the ones who were washed away?" Ouyang Feixue's heart suddenly hung up, her bloodshot eyes stared at Yingjie for a moment, waiting for her next words.

"They said ??????? Among the people who were washed away, one was a superior official sent by Jincheng." Yingjie spoke back, her voice lowered, because she noticed Ouyang Feixue's The complexion has become more and more serious.

"Miss, don't worry, maybe it's not the prime minister." Yingjie thought that Ouyang Feixue was afraid that something would happen to Ouyang Jinxuan. In her eyes, although there were many conflicts between Ouyang Feixue and Ouyang Jinxuan, but The two, after all, are father and daughter whose blood is thicker than water.

Ouyang Feixue didn't seem to hear Yingjie's last words, she pressed the corners of her lips tightly together, even though the line of her lips was slowly turning white, she didn't let go.

Yingjie wanted to go forward and say something, but Wei Qilin stopped her.

"Let her be alone." Looking at Ouyang Feixue who was walking out step by step, her steps were bumpy, and her back gave off a feeling of loneliness, which made people want to step forward and gently hug her. Hold her and comfort her.

Yingjie stopped in her tracks, knowing in her heart that such a strong Ouyang Feixue, even if she was sad, she probably didn't want others to see her.
