Playful Queen

Chapter 176

The faint flames reflected the figure not far away. Under the black cloak, the woman had a beautiful face, graceful and glamorous. The old man smiled slightly and said enthusiastically: "This girl, it's cold at night. Why don't you come and sit with us?" Meng Li looked towards the place where the fire was lit, and saw that enthusiastic old man sitting in front of the fire and greeting her, and the guards around were guarding the carriage wrapped in blue cloth, Even if they were sitting warming themselves by the fire, they could be seen to be vigilant all the time. It seemed that there must be someone very important sitting in the carriage, their master.

Meng Li smiled, and refused: "Thank you, old gentleman, for your kindness, no need, I'll go back to the carriage to rest now."

She glanced at the green cloth carriage surrounded by fire, then turned around and walked towards her own carriage. The old gentleman smiled, looked at the figure entering the carriage, and slightly raised his hand to signal to the guards Guarding separately, he also entered the carriage to rest.

It was late at night, and there was silence everywhere.

At this time, the noise of horseshoes broke the tranquility. Although the people around the fire did not move at all, they just sat there, but there was a trace of vigilance in their brows. With a sound, he opened his eyes, lifted a corner of the curtain, and looked towards the group of people rushing towards him.

All the visitors were riding black horses and wearing dark black robes. Seeing the scene blocking the road, they all pulled the reins, turned their horses' heads, and walked towards the forest. Mengli put down the curtain, and Leaning on the soft chair, the sound of their conversation suddenly came from outside the carriage.

"Damn it, when will it not be blocked? It will be blocked at this time." The bearded leader frowned and cursed loudly, then quickly got off his horse and said to the people behind him: "Everyone, get off your horse and stay here tonight." Night!"

Another lean man with a big beard looked at the people around him and asked, "Are you sure you saw someone appearing nearby?"

A very wretched man bowed his waist, nodding like a begging puppy.

"I'm sure, I heard from the people above that that person recently appeared in the southwest, and I saw her coming out of Qiyang City early this morning and walking this way."

"We've all chased to the southwest, this time we can't make mistakes again, after we take that man's life, let's go to the kiln to have fun with 1000 million taels!" The burly man behind the bearded man also said rough said.

Hearing this, the bearded man waved his hands and grinned: "I heard that she is a beauty. When you catch her, let the master enjoy it before killing her!"

"Boss, let our little ones enjoy it too, haha."

Mengli in the carriage frowned, why did it sound more and more like these people were offering gold rewards to themselves?No matter what, she had better be careful, after all, she appeared as Shen Mengli, there were only two possibilities, one was to be taken back, and the other was to be killed by the enemy.

The bearded man shook himself up, looked at the fire not far away, and said, "It's really cold at night, let's go over there and borrow a fire to warm up!"

The group of people followed the leader's bearded man towards the direction of the fire, and the old gentleman also lifted the curtain and walked out of the carriage. Smiling, just as he was about to speak, he saw that bearded man doing something that was taboo to them all.

The guards sitting by the fire all turned their faces away in an instant, staring fiercely at the bearded man approaching the very strange-looking carriage, and the moment he reached out to lift the curtain, the gentle smile of the old man froze instantly. So put the car down gently...

The hand that was about to lift the green cloth carriage was cut off by a big knife, and before the bearded man could yell out, someone covered his mouth and slashed it away ruthlessly.

The movement was so fast that it took only a split second to make people unable to see clearly and had no time to think. All the guards stood up like lightning, and all took out silvery scimitars from their boots. The group of big men were about to sit down and meet When they share the fire, they have become their dead souls, even they are still unknowingly, there is no scream, the whole process is silent, only the carriage wrapped in green cloth is completely intact stands tall.

The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and Mengli felt very strange, so she opened the curtain and stepped out of the carriage. What came out of her nostrils was a bloody smell that made her frown. At this moment, she already regretted why she had to get out of the carriage She never thought that these people would kill them in the blink of an eye, and when she saw such a scene, how would these people treat her?
She had long felt that these people were not ordinary businessmen, so when the old man called her, she immediately refused.

Seeing countless pairs of eyes staring at her, she frowned, but now, is she going to pretend she didn't see and go back to the carriage, or...

Just as she was thinking, a picture scroll was unfolded on the ground full of blood, isn't that herself?The person these people offered a bounty to kill turned out to be me, hehe, so that means they actually helped me?

The old gentleman also saw it, so a gentle smile immediately returned to his cold face: "It seems that the girl these people are looking for is you."

Although these words were gentle, they hid their swords in their smiles. Those guards still stared at him coldly, and their footsteps were slowly approaching. The small crescent moon knife in their hands was still dripping with blood...

"Mr., I..." Mengli frowned, wouldn't she want to kill herself right now?
In the blink of an eye, another group of people suddenly appeared, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...

Several arrows were shot towards this side, and I saw the men and horses in black clothes not far away, suddenly there was a gust of howling wind, the fallen leaves of the forest swirled, and the lights of knives flashed alternately, with a bloodthirsty murderous aura .

Twelve guards immediately surrounded the carriage wrapped in blue cloth, their faces were cold and fearless. In an instant, the air that had a strong smell of blood was even more murderous, but the carriage surrounded by them did not move at all. I don't know whether to rest assured of these people who protect him, or there is no one inside at all!
Mengli dodged the arrow, and saw this scene, her brows were tightly frowned, which one did it come from, did she want to kill her or kill them?

However, judging from their actions, they didn't want to kill themselves, so she could take the opportunity to escape?
Just when Mengli was about to turn around, a man in black still wouldn't let her go, probably thinking that she was with them, and the lightning-like blade went straight to Mengli's body, and she turned sideways violently in the crisis , the blade just slashed across her arm, and then she attacked her with a backhand palm, and a long golden whip was thrown out from her waist.
