She half-squinted her eyes, as if she had just woken up from a big dream, and the strange and bizarre scenes in the dream still lingered.
At this moment, she was lying on a bamboo frame, Dong Qingxian and Bai Zhi were carrying her one after the other, and Gong Shuyu was lying next to her, laughing so hard.
Further ahead, there are clusters of figures, carrying bags of luggage and heading on their way.
Gongshuyu handed over the cowhide bag, uncorked the bottle, and fed the water into her mouth.
Liu Ruyan really felt thirsty and drank half a bottle of water before she felt relieved.
"Where is this?" she asked.
"The new emperor ordered the city to be relocated, but they all ran away long ago, leaving only a group of old, weak and sick people who could not walk far and refused to leave the city. Brother Bai tried his best to keep everyone company and take care of each other, and finally
It was persuasion. No, not long after we came out, there was a flood in the city. If we go one step at night..."
Gongshuyu felt sad and said nothing.
Liu Ruyan covered her head, her memory blurred for a moment: "How did I escape?"
Gongshu Yu was startled for a moment and then said: "There is a tunnel in the west of the city that leads to the outside of the city. Naturally, I will take you out secretly."
She frowned, feeling something was wrong.
"What about those officers and soldiers? How could they let me go in that formation?"
"Hey, don't worry too much. After passing this mountain, you can rest in the next town, which may be able to accommodate these refugees."
Liu Ruyan suddenly sat up from the bamboo stand, her eyes so dark that they were frightening.
She stared at Gong Shuyu and asked in a deep voice: "Where's Qiushi? Why didn't I see her along the way?"
Gongshu Yu's lips twitched and he didn't dare to say anything anymore.
She grabbed the boy's cuffs:
"Why didn't you say anything?"
"Where is she?"
"Where did Miss Qiu go?"
Bai Zhi turned her head and her voice was already unstable: "Miss Qiu, she is... gone..."
"No more?"
Liu Ruyan closed her eyes, feeling pain in her chest. After the dull pain passed, she felt powerless.
She tightened her fingertips and stared at the line of text on the system interface: The plot character Qiu Shi died in the Dragon City Jinyang chapter at the age of twenty-five.
We are of the same mind, of the same mind, for her use.
So one life for another?
Si Niang, you are so cruel...
Her eyebrows are as beautiful as day lilies, her red skirt is jealous of pomegranate flowers.
Qiu Siniang liked red clothes the most and was most afraid of being ruthless. Her laughter and curses were all vivid, and she was also very vicious when she criticized others. At that time, she avenged Liu Ruyan's kindness at the sacrificial altar, and she was obviously very greedy for life and afraid of death.
Later, she came to Jinyang to seek refuge, and saw that the art of disguise was really good and could be faked. At that time, she also said that if she could learn this, she would not have to be afraid of anyone when walking outside.
She learned to disguise herself and change her voice, and would often imitate Liu Ruyan.
Gong Shuyu once joked that when the two sisters stood together, it was almost impossible to tell who was who.
"You knew this all along, but you kept it from me." Liu Ruyan's voice was hoarse.
"Miss Qiu has made up her mind. She said she has nothing to ask for in this life and only wants you to be well for the rest of her life." Bai Zhi said and handed over a letter.
Liu Ruyan took the letter, unfolded it, and lowered her eyes.
"Girl, I asked Xiaobai to take the medicine. I guess by the time you wake up, I will have already gone to see the Lord of Hell."
"I know in my heart that you, girl, value others the most, and despise your own life for the sake of irrelevant people. In fact, a person's life span is only a few decades. It is better to live freely, act arbitrarily, and think more about yourself.
."
"But no matter how much you say, it won't help. As a loyal person, the burden on your shoulders will always be heavier than others. You protect these living beings, and they will accept your kindness and know how to repay it. Just like Xingtian and Zhuge Ming, they will not even want to die.
betray you."
"And that grandma, if she hadn't come forward, how could you have let down your guard and inhaled the smoke with your personality, and fell into my scheme of substituting someone for the job?"
"Girl, don't blame Bai Zhi and the others. I asked them to hide this from you."
"Perhaps you don't know that back then I was so affectionate that I mistakenly trusted the person next to me and saved my life. When I was at the end of my rope, I worked as a cook in the escort agency for three years and learned a wild way, just for revenge.
Therefore, when I was at the Sword Tomb of the Qin Dynasty, I didn’t want to die. I wanted to save my life and come back to send the beasts to hell! Now that the great revenge has been avenged, I have lived enough in this life. It is enough for you to be happy for the rest of your life."
"Don't laugh when you say a word. I heard that when beheaded, the head falls to the ground, but the person is still alive."
"Actually, Si Niang, I am most afraid of pain..."
The ripe xuan is stained with mottled textures, and the ink melts into the water and spreads out bit by bit.
Liu Ruyan bit her lips and her tears couldn't stop falling. Between the mottled handwriting, she seemed to see a young girl leaning on the railing and looking at her, her toes slightly tiptoeing under her pomegranate red dress.
The girl poked half of her face out and saw two people walking into the courtyard, she couldn't help but feel happy.
"Coming, coming." She smiled.
In the yard, Qiu's father stared at her: "She comes from a girl's family and doesn't understand any rules!"
Qiu Shi quickly closed her eyes and stood up, performed the Wanfu salute in a proper manner, then stuck out her tongue at the young man next to Liu's father and ran away in a hurry.
Father Qiu frowned.
Zou Chong bowed and said: "Six Niang is straightforward and naive. She is simply acquaintances in this private school. The students think that the master does not need to be too harsh."
Father Qiu glanced at him and suddenly felt unhappy.
At night, Zou Chong studied hard at his desk.
Qiu Shi sneaked in and called out: "Zou Lang——"
The young man smiled at first, and then solemnly said: "What should I do if I let you, Aye, see it? I'd better not come looking for me in the future."
Qiu Shi did not listen to the advice and approached him: "Seeing that you were running out of pen and ink, I saved some money to buy more for you. Why do you think you are suspicious of me?"
When Zou Chong saw her bringing in the study supplies, his face warmed up and he explained: "Master is strict in discipline. I am doing this just for our future. When I become successful and famous, I will definitely live up to you."
He took Qiu Shi's hand and said, "I wish we could be together forever. Si Niang, are you willing to wait for me?"
Qiushi looked ashamed, lowered her eyes and nodded gently.
The night was getting thicker and the fragrance was so subtle. The girl in red was walking in the courtyard. Remembering the promise made by the young man just now, she covered her face with a shy color on her cheeks. She stamped her foot with a hint of anger and a smile: "Just this little progress, the soul."
The children were all seduced away."
She couldn't hide her giggle, returned to the attic, and took out the unfinished embroidery work.
It was getting colder in Jinling, and Zou Lang's shirt was too thin and he couldn't bear the cold.
"I only hope that your heart will be like mine, and I will live up to my deep love for you." Qiu Shi leaned on the desk and sat quietly, threading needles and threads with her ten slender fingers, and a smile appeared in her eyes.
After many years, Qiu Shi no longer looks like the girl she once was.
She met Liu Ruyan, a girl who was always soft-hearted and helped people time and time again.
"It turns out that there are really stupid girls in this world." Qiu Shi couldn't help but sigh.
Liu Ruyan closed the letter and closed her eyes: "You are also a silly girl... Si Niang..."
Shen Yanchu finally got in touch with Ling Yun and learned that his subordinate was in a small town not far away, where Liu Ruyan also settled.
He wiped away his sorrow and hurried there without stopping.
The town was not big, but it was crowded with people everywhere. The people who were fleeing the war were accommodated in a temple. When he arrived, he saw a dark crowd of refugees sitting in the cramped Buddhist hall. They all looked haggard.
He walked through the crowd step by step, his eyes fixed on a slender shadow.
The man wore his hair in a man bun and his clothes were stained with mud. From this angle, his originally thin shoulders seemed to become even thinner.
