commoner pretty detective

Chapter 73
Wu Yan screamed in fright, and the Huoyi in her hand fell to the ground. Before the fire went out, she saw the tip of the sword stop abruptly in front of her throat.There was no sound in the darkness, so quiet that she could hear her own heartbeat. If it wasn't for the cold air in front of her, she would really suspect that it was just her own hallucination.

I don't know how long the stalemate lasted until I heard a low sigh from someone, and then the coldness disappeared.Wu Yan was stunned for a long time before tentatively stretching out her hand in front of her.I didn't feel the sharp sword, and I touched my neck again. The neck was fine, no pain or bleeding.She yelled again, turned around and ran out of the cave.

He rushed out of the cave and ran all the way, unable to distinguish east from west, north from south, and only wanted to get as far away from that ghostly place as possible.After running around for a while, I ran to a small river, and stopped when I was too tired to run.Sitting by the river, looking at the embarrassment in the river, we cried and laughed.Fortunately, there was no one else, otherwise it would be strange not to treat her as a lunatic.

It took a long time to calm down, wiped his face with river water, and brushed his messy hair.The horse was frightened and had no idea where it had gone.There was a small village a little far ahead, and Wu Yan was about to stand up and go there to inquire about the way back to the city, when she heard a clear flute sound coming from above the small river.

The sound of the flute is very familiar, it is exactly the tune that Hualuomei played that night.Looking above the creek again, a small boat was slowly drifting towards her.Wu Yan was ecstatic, Hua Luomei came at the right time.She stood up, waved at the boat and shouted, "Hua Luomei, is that you?"

As soon as the words fell, the sound of the flute stopped abruptly, and then a person came out of the cabin and stood at the bow.It really was Hualuomei, seeing Wu Yan, a happy smile appeared on his face immediately, and his smile immediately reassured Wu Yan a lot.

He waved lightly at Wu Yan, without speaking, but the boat speeded up.Soon after arriving in front of Wu Yan, Hua Luomei stretched out her hand to pull Wu Yan onto the boat.After staring at Wu Yan for a while, the smile on Hua Luomei's face gradually faded, and she asked with concern: "What's wrong with you? You seem to be frightened."

How dare Wu Yan tell him the truth, she lied and said: "I accidentally fell off the horse just now, and the horse was also lost. I was worried that I would not be able to go back. Fortunately, I met you."

Hua Luomei looked deeply at Wu Yan, which made her feel guilty, wondering if the lie she told was too clumsy.Hua Luomei didn't raise any doubts, but just asked: "Did you get hurt anywhere?"

"No, I'm fine, really." Wu Yan shook her head violently.

Hua Luomei helped Wu Yan to sit down in the cabin, poured another glass of wine and handed her a glass of wine and said, "Have a glass of wine to calm down the shock, look at your face, there is no blood at all, and you still say you are fine."

Wu Yan drank the wine and looked out the window.Outside the window, flowers poked their heads out of the grass quietly, and birds jumped and played among the branches and leaves. It was peaceful and quiet, which was very different from the experience in the cave just now.Listening to the gurgling sound of the river, Wu Yan finally slowly returned to normal.

Hua Luomei stared at her and asked softly, "Why did you come here alone?"

"I heard that the scenery here is very good, so I came to have a look. It's really good." Wu Yan continued to be sloppy.

"Don't come here in the future. I heard that this area is not peaceful. Fortunately, you just fell off your horse today. If you encounter bad people, let's see what you will do." Hua Luomei said very seriously.

Hearing the word "bad guy", Wu Yan couldn't help but shudder. It's simply unbelievable that she managed to get away with it today.In fact, it was clear that the man let her go, since he wanted to kill her, why did he let her go again? Could there be some ulterior purpose?Oh, she ran to Hua Luomei's boat, so she shouldn't cause him any trouble.
