"Where are the people?"

"It looks like it's coming this way!"

"Let's look for it. How could it be missing? Don't ruin things."

Lin Mengchu, who was hiding on the edge of the cliff and clinging to a branch, wiped the blood from his forehead, bit his bloodless lips tightly with his white teeth, and held his breath tightly.

The heavy rain poured down, and the raindrops made a roaring sound on the trees, but it also washed away the blood stains on Lin Mengchu's body.

Lin Mengchu looked at the surrounding scenery. She didn't expect that she was reborn, and it was at the very beginning of her rebirth. She eloped with someone? Met bandits? At this time, she did not lose her innocence, nor did she regard the ambitious man as someone to rely on.

!

Lin Mengchu thought that the corners of his mouth could not help but evoke a smile, and that smile was so frightening under the reflection of lightning and thunder, like a ghost reborn from the Shura field.

The moment she realized she was reborn, she only had time to kill one person and seize the opportunity to escape from the wolf den, but she only left herself a little time.

She escaped for five days, and her pursuers also pursued her for five days. Now she has reached the end of her rope. It depends on tonight whether she can come back alive.

She just begged God that since he had given her the chance to be reborn, he would not take it away again.

Listening to the soft footsteps on the cliff, Lin Mengchu glanced at the bottom of the cliff and immediately turned pale. Under his feet was the tumbling river. In the rainy weather, the river was tumbling violently. If he jumped down, he would have survived.

The opportunity was gone, but she didn't want to be caught back. She would rather be broken into pieces than live in ruins!

The footsteps on the cliff gradually came closer, and there were even stones rolling down due to inspection.

Lin Mengchu gritted his teeth and wanted to let go, but he didn't expect to hear screams at this time.

She watched as two heads fell from above, and the blood splattered on her face. The sudden change suppressed the panic in Lin Mengchu's throat.

Brush it!

Lin Mengchu felt the shield above her head being lifted open, and rainwater flowed onto her face along with the blood on the cliff.

"Lin Family Jinyuan?"

Lin Mengchu stared blankly at the person on the edge of the cliff. The person was wearing a black brocade robe with a high collar, the collar was embroidered with a circle of fluff, and a dark red cloak, with a hint of chill on the sideburns.

And those dark phoenix eyes contained an implicit look.

Perhaps it was because he had just killed someone and his body was filled with blood. Even when he was standing under the umbrella, he had a gloomy color.

"I am Xu Jingzhe."

The young man lowered his head with a cold look on his face: "Where did you put my brother Xie's face when you eloped with someone a month ago?"

Lin Mengchu looked at Xu Jingzhe's face and was in a daze for a moment.

In the last life, the next time I saw this young man who was raised by the Xie family was when the Xie family was exterminated, and the young man led an army of retainers from the Xiao family to besiege the city to burn with the royal family.

She remembered that at that time, the young man had just grown up and had a peerless appearance. He was riding on a horse and looking down at her. When he saw her, he said: "Lin Family Jinyuan? Kill him."

The young man's words were particularly cold, but after hearing his words, Zhang Xiao, the one who tricked her into leaving Xie's house with sweet words, actually pushed her out, with the bayonet reaching for her neck. The sharp exchange actually brought out a layer of blood.

beads.

And when she was dying, she saw the young man's sneer look and Zhang Xiao's coldness.

When Lin Mengchu's expression was distracted, the young man's sword swept away a layer of gravel. The gravel fell on her face, leaving a trail of blood marks, and the pain also awakened her memory.

"I want to ask you a question? Did you run away with someone?"

The young man's cold voice sounded again.

"My marriage to the Xie family was a matchmaker's order from my parents. I dare not go against it. It was my aunt who told me about my younger brother. My younger brother was abducted when he was four years old. Since then,

There was no news at all, and my father did not see his brother for the last time before he died. When I was getting married, my aunt suddenly came to me with my brother's personal belongings and said that my brother had appeared in Huai'an City.

I left the capital in a hurry, otherwise I would not have been kidnapped by Zhang Xiao."

The rain hitting her face made it difficult for Lin Mengchu to open her eyes, and the small wounds on her body also made her suffer terribly.

The strength of her body was gradually disappearing. If it weren't for her survival instinct, she would have given up and fallen off the cliff.

"Xu Jingzhe, if I wanted to elope with someone, I would find a wealthy place and stay as far away from the capital as possible. Why would I go to all the trouble to return to the capital?"

Lin Mengchu laughed as he spoke: "How could I end up in this situation?"

Xu Jingzhe looked at Lin Mengchu's expression. His whole body was muddy and stained with blood, and his face was as pale as a ghost. Ghosts are not as miserable as women. Who else would elope so miserable?

The news that he was chasing the woman from Huai'an to here was indeed heading back to the capital. It seemed that the woman's words were true.

The girl was clinging to the vine branch with one hand, her hands were shaking constantly, and the skin scratched by the rock began to bleed, as if it would fall off in the next moment.

Thinking of this, Xu Jingzhe stood up on her tiptoes, grabbed Lin Mengchu's waist with one hand, and flew back to the cliff with the help of the inertia of the vine branches.

The moment he landed, he immediately threw Lin Mengchu to the ground, with disgust on his face, and took the handkerchief from his hand to wipe the muddy water on his hands.

He stood in the umbrella and looked at Lin Mengchu lying on the ground, covered in mud and blood.

"Sorry." Xu Jingzhe smiled slightly: "My hand slipped for a while."

Lin Mengchu gritted her teeth and looked at the young man with a bright smile in front of her. She broke her teeth and swallowed blood. So what if she knew that the person in front of her did it on purpose? She made the mistake of escaping from the marriage in the first place. So what if the Xie family treated her badly?

Although the young man in front of him is the adopted son of the Xie family, he has a close relationship with the Xie family brothers, as if they were full brothers. Even his name is based on the seniority of the Xie family.

What's more, the person in front of her was a murderous master in the previous life. He led troops to surround the imperial city and massacre the royal family. But she was just a little shrimp. She didn't have the guts to pluck the tiger's hair.

Xu Jingzhe didn't ask her how she was, and just held an umbrella and left. Lin Mengchu hurriedly followed her with a limp.

There are a lot of rocks in the mountain, making it difficult to walk, not to mention it just rained? When she was chased before, she had already injured her leg, not to mention other wounds on her body, so she fell down many times on the way down the mountain.

On the ground.

Xu Jingzhe saw her fall to the ground, her arms were bruised and bleeding. He looked at Lin Mengchu and smiled and said, "You can run out of the capital to find your brother by yourself, but you can't even walk this short distance?"

Seeing Lin Mengchu's silent expression, Xu Jingzhe smiled again and said, "Miss Lin, do you need any help?"

"No, I can leave."

This person had already made it clear that he wanted to deliberately embarrass her, so there was no need for her to humiliate herself. She gritted her teeth and got up from the ground, and continued to follow Xu Jingzhe.

By the time they arrived at the ruined temple at the foot of the mountain, Lin Mengchu was already a drowned rat. There was no good place in his body and he was shivering with cold.

On the other hand, except for a little mud on the soles of Xu Jingzhe's shoes, not even a single hair on her body was messed up. It's really irritating that people are so different from each other.

When Lin Mengchu adjusted to the light in the room, she suddenly saw a group of people tied up in the room, several of whom were the ones who had been chasing her.

After seeing Xu Jingzhe coming, those people were trembling with fear, stuffing rags in their mouths, and making whining sounds.

Xu Jingzhe stepped forward, and when passing a man, he suddenly slashed at the man with a knife. Blood spattered out instantly, and a severed arm flew out from Lin Mengchu's eyes.

The man's face turned pale in pain, his eyes protruded, and he whimpered.

Xu Jingzhe lowered his eyes and looked at the blood on the knife: "It's so noisy."

The man's cry stopped instantly, and the people beside him did not dare to make a sound. Xu Jingzhe's face hidden in the shadows was cold under the reflection of the sword, but there was a bright smile on his face: "

Miss Lin, these people are not good people, I am just punishing them a little, Miss Lin, don’t be afraid."

Xu Jingzhe smiled brightly, revealing two sharp little tiger teeth because of his smile, and his eyebrows were raised with a hint of coolness.

"We, the Xie family, are not easy to bully. It is a pity that we did not catch Zhang Xiao who raped Miss Lin. Otherwise, I would not have spared him. Otherwise, how could I apologize to Miss Lin?"

Lin Mengchu's face turned pale, and the corners of his mouth opened and closed.

She had seen the man in front of her kill people without blinking an eye, and she had also seen him kill people while talking and laughing. However, his words were more of a knock on her than a support for her.

And that sentence of thanking the family was not about her, but the man she was going to marry, the eldest son of the Xie family, Xie Yunsheng.

"It was my fault for running away from the wedding." Lin Mengchu took a deep breath and continued: "What happened to the wedding banquet after I left?"

"What's going on? Of course it can't go on." Xu Jingzhe smiled slightly and said with a chill in his eyes: "No one was received for the wedding. The Lin family said that you eloped with someone. If it hadn't been for the war report from the palace at that time, thank you

Uncle and Brother Xie are going to put down the war, and the Xie family will become a joke in everyone's eyes."

Xu Jingzhe looked at Lin Mengchu's expression as he spoke, and then said: "Brother Xie was still worried about your reputation when he left. He asked everyone not to talk about it. He only told the outside world that you were sick, and asked me to secretly find your whereabouts."

"But, Miss Lin, you really want me to find you."

When Lin Mengchu heard Xu Jingzhe's words, his body suddenly trembled.

She knew that even if she made excuses, she couldn't cover up her sudden departure on the day of her wedding. Moreover, the Xie family was a well-established family, and everything they said and did was under the spotlight. However, her behavior was a disgrace to the Xie family and would bring harm to the Xie family.

Reputation is roasted on the fire.

She just ran away, and no matter how hard the Xie family tried to cover it up, the Xie family became a joke.

Lin Mengchu took a deep breath and said seriously: "I know that what I did on the wedding day was inappropriate and brought shame to the Xie family. When I return to Beijing, I will apologize to the old lady and the eldest son of the Xie family. But please give me a gift from Mr. Ji."

Cheng, after returning to Beijing, no matter what the Xie family asks, I will comply with it."

"You are willing to die, too?"

Xu Jingzhe stared at the woman in front of him, trying to see the quibble and fear in the woman's eyes, but he was disappointed. What he saw was the woman's regret and a trace of something else, like hatred? Is that right?

Whose?

"willing."

Lin Mengchu straightened his body and said seriously.

Seeing Lin Mengchu's slender neck and face stained with mud and blood, Xu Jingzhe suddenly smiled and said: "Miss Lin, you are really interesting. The Xie family does not kill people indiscriminately."

The knife in Xu Jingzhe's hand was still dripping blood, dripping along the sword to the ground, and the severed arm seemed to be still moving.

Lin Mengchu looked at her arms on the ground. When she heard Xu Jingzhe's words, she felt it was harsh. She forced a smile on her lips and said, "Yes, the Xie family is the most reasonable and will not embarrass me, a female family."
