The east and west gates are opposite each other, and they are a little far apart and blocked by a canal. If it takes two hours to walk there, the only way to save time is to cross the canal by boat.
After Ah Huai left Yongning Mansion, she searched carefully in her skirt pocket, but could not find any copper coins on her body.
"If I had known earlier, I should have borrowed some money from that young man just now for urgent needs."
Ah Huai knocked on his head and said, "I'm usually very smart, but why did I act stupid today?"
She reluctantly looked at the ship not far away and walked towards the avenue.
Ah Huai walked nearly halfway and finally got closer and closer to the west gate.
The traces of fire damage were clearly visible on both sides of the street.
The surrounding shops were in a mess, the streets were in a mess, and the air was still filled with thin black smoke.
Ah Huai suddenly felt uneasy. Could something happen to the dance studio?
She immediately ran towards the dance studio, but before she could take a few steps forward, a dark figure jumped towards her from the dark alley on the right.
Before Ah Huai could react, a black shadow covered her mouth and dragged her into the dark alley at the corner of the street.
Jingxin, who had been following closely, immediately stood up when he saw this and flew towards the roof above the dark alley.
I saw that in the street below, the man in black suddenly appeared and held Ahuai's body tightly, trying to control her.
Ahuai resisted desperately, but she was too short and had no chance of escaping.
Seeing Ah Huai struggling desperately, the man in black had no choice but to pull down his mask. It was a young woman.
"Ah Huai, this is your sister Ping'er.
Ah Huai was still struggling to resist, and a familiar voice sounded in his ears.
She opened her eyes, her face filled with joy.
The nervousness just now disappeared immediately.
"Sister Ping'er, it's really you, why are you dressed like this?"
"Ah Huai, listen carefully, and you must follow my instructions from now on."
Compared with Ah Huai's cheerfulness, Ping'er was extremely serious.
Ah Huai noticed Ping'er's abnormality and asked nervously,
"Sister, something happened in the dance studio?"
"Ah Huai, Sister Ping'er doesn't have time to explain to you. You will go to Aunt Fang's house in the suburbs to stay temporarily. If I don't meet you tomorrow night, you can open the tips bag I gave you. In the tips bag
There are clear instructions telling you what to do, and you must put them away carefully without any negligence, do you understand?"
Unless the situation is urgent, Ping'er will never let Ah Huai do the next task.
It's just that everything happened so suddenly that she couldn't take care of herself.
Ping'er gently wiped away Ah Huai's tears and said, "Ah Huai, you must be brave. For the sake of the dance studio and your relatives, you must not back down."
Tears had already filled Ahuai's eyes, and she reluctantly looked at Ping'er walking further and further away.
Jingxin, who had been observing in the dark, also heard the conversation between the two.
Sure enough, as Heishi thought, there were other survivors in the dance studio.
Seeing Ping'er walking away, he immediately followed her, leaving the unique signal marks of the Brave Slaughter Sect along the way.
As noon approached, the streets were bustling with people and bustle. Ping'er wandered around the north gate and finally entered an alley.
The alley was quiet, with only a few houses.
Ping'er carefully looked around to make sure no one was around, then knocked a few times on the door of one of the red houses.
After a while, someone opened the door from inside, and Ping'er followed that person through the door.
In order not to miss any clues, Jingxin immediately stepped forward and walked to the house where Ping'er disappeared.
There are walls on both sides of the house. If you climb over the wall rashly, your whereabouts may be leaked and the other party will be alert.
After carefully searching around, Jingxin finally found an ancient tree not far from the door.
The ancient branches are lush and leafy, like a huge green umbrella, which is a good place to hide.
Jingxin left another signal mark in front of the courtyard door, then jumped up and hid in the branches, just in time to have a panoramic view of the courtyard.
There is a pavilion in the center of the courtyard, with several towering trees planted outside the pavilion.
There is also a small pond next to the pavilion. Perhaps it has not been taken care of for a long time and the pond is covered with moss.
I saw Ping'er following the man who opened the door through the pavilion and walking straight towards a room in the distance.
Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one in the courtyard, Jingxin immediately jumped off the big tree and hid himself on the hard top of the mountain behind the roof where Ping'er was.
After he removed a few green tiles, he saw two women and a man in the room below. The three of them looked embarrassed, as if they had encountered something rare.
"Still unable to find my aunt's men, I have ordered everyone to explore more than ten miles away."
The man's face was very ugly, and it could be seen that he was very nervous.
A young woman wearing a purple robe looked pale. She took Ping'er's hand and asked anxiously,
"Sister Ping'er, my aunt didn't come back on time, and now the dance studio has been burned down. What should we do?"
Ping'er held hands tightly and felt very uncomfortable.
She pretended to be calm and said slowly: "Auntie has martial arts and can protect herself. The most important thing now is to protect her own safety. Chayue, you must stay calm when you return to Huaxia Tower, so that no one can find you.
's true identity."
"Sister Ping'er, is it true that there are no survivors in the dance studio?"
Chayue looked at Ping'er nervously, and she finally asked.
Even if there is only a little hope, she is also looking forward to the arrival of a miracle and the survival of the dance studio.
However, reality is cruel after all.
Ping'er lowered her head, but she still couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes and fell to the ground.
"Only Ahuai and I are left."
"Thirty lives, a total of thirty lives, do you really want to kill me, Wu Sangyu? Why? Why?"
Chayue finally couldn't restrain her inner emotions and cried loudly.
"Is this the fate of our clan?"
The man who had been silently holding the jade pendant in his hand tightly and sighed deeply.
The three people in the room were all immersed in their own emotions. The silent atmosphere made Jingxin hiding on the roof feel their unwillingness and anger.
The silent atmosphere was like a cage, and Ping'er and the three of them were lions surrounded in the cage, brewing that terrifying roar, which started with low roars and gradually expanded.
Maybe all it takes is one chance for them to break out of their cage and hunt down the prey they've been longing for.
"Okay, now is not the time to be discouraged. I have arranged for Ahuai to stay in the suburbs. If something happens to us, she will take the tips left by her aunt to go to Lu State to find Elder Xi. We still have tasks to do, Qian
Don’t take it lightly.”
"Wu Sangyu's map is still in the dance studio. I'm going to find it tonight. You two go back to Huaxia Tower first. We will meet here at You time tonight. If you don't wait for me, you two will set off immediately.
Lu, please don’t delay on the road. If Ahuai doesn’t have any accidents, she will meet you in Lu.”
Ping'er wiped away the tears on her face and looked calm.
"Sister Ping'er, what about you? Aren't you going to the State of Lu with us?"
Chayue held Ping'er's hands tightly. She didn't know why she had a premonition that today might be the last time she saw Ping'er. This chapter has been completed!
