I was pushed hard and staggered to the side, just as my heels were tripping on a stone step, and I fell down immediately.

When Pei Yuanhao saw it, he rushed over and grabbed my arm.

I was caught by him, but the other shoulder still hit a stone lion on the stone steps.

"ah--!"

Suddenly, a severe pain came from my shoulders. I almost heard the sound of bone dislocation and couldn't help but let out a low voice.

Pei Yuanhao hugged me: "Qingying!"

"Mom!" Li'er screamed in horror and rushed forward.

But I could hardly hear their voices for a moment. I felt the severe pain coming like a tide, swallowing me in an instant. Even my eyes turned black and my ears became blank with a buzzing sound. I gritted my teeth and endured it, but the pain was so painful that I curled up and couldn't say a word.

At this time, the street that was still very busy suddenly became quiet. Among the people around who were watching the lanterns, many of them rushed out immediately and pushed the common people away. All the guards around had already rushed up and surrounded us. Gu Ping took a step forward, grabbed the man's collar, and roared: "What do you want to do?!"

The man was stunned there, and he didn't expect that he would suddenly meet such a group of evil gods. Pei Yuanhao looked up at him with a blue face. His eyes were like a knife. When the man met his eyes, the knife in his hand fell to the ground with a clang, and his legs were weak and almost kneeled down: "I, I didn't----"

"He is an assassin!"

"Say, who sent you here!"

"Speak quickly!"

Hearing the roar of the guards, he was even more frightened and stuttered for a long time before saying, "The little one is not an assassin, the little one is just a pig slaughter..."

"What?!"

"lie!"

The man was playing the pipa on both legs and said tremblingly: "The little one is really not an assassin. Those guys always come to steal the little one's pork. The little one is so angry today that he is--"

After hearing what he said, everyone subconsciously turned around and saw the group of children who had just run past us. One of them was holding a piece of pork in his hand. When they saw the scene here, they were all so scared that they scattered.

The man knelt down tremblingly and kowtowed like garlic: "Officials, all the officials are very merciful, the young ones are really wronged."

...

The man was wearing coarse cloth clothes, and an apron on his chest was greasy and was stained with a lot of minced meat. Even the knife that had just fallen to the ground was picked up and looked at it. It was indeed a bone-clearing knife, and it was stained with a lot of greasy.

It seems that he is not lying, he is indeed a pig-killing butcher.

Everyone around was frozen at this moment.

Especially Gu Ping, he looked at the butcher, looked back at me sweating profusely in pain, and was a little panicked for a moment, and hurried over: "Aunt Qing!"

Pei Yuanhao looked up at him, his gaze as fierce as a blade.

The initial severe pain passed, and I finally took a breath, but the pain on my shoulders was still continuous, piercing me in waves. I took a deep breath before I could barely look at him, and I saw him lowering his head regretfully: "Aunt Qing, it's me that's not good! I'm too impulsive."

“…”

"Aunt Qing, are you okay?"

"……fine."

I held it in for a long time before I could barely say two words. The cold sweat slid down from my temples like a broken bead, and it was so painful that I couldn't say the second sentence.

He was indeed a little too impulsive just now. If you judge carefully, you can tell the authenticity. But maybe he was under great pressure to cross the river with me alone. In addition, he was responsible for protecting me and Li'er, which made him extremely nervous, so he was so angry that he would take action rashly.

But now, it would be useless to blame him.

Especially when I felt that I was lying in Pei Yuanhao's arms, his chest was pressed against my back. Every rapid breath and the violent ups and downs of my chest were clearly engraved on me through my clothes. The feeling made me tremble.

Just like the severe pain on my shoulders, this approach made me unbearable.

Thinking of this, I subconsciously struggled and left his arms.

But just as I was about to move, I didn't even get started, I felt a sharp pain on my shoulders. It seemed like a steel knife was pierced into the bone and was rotating hard. But more than this, I felt that my ankle had just been worn over the raised edges and corners on the stone steps, as if it had worn out the ankle bones, and I saw blood soaking out.

I couldn't even make a whimper, and I immediately bit my lower lip and sweated down.

"Don't move!"

Pei Yuanhao's low voice rang in his ears.

His voice was not unfamiliar, as low as ever, and with an irresistible sense of domineeringness and oppression, my already powerless arm became even softer and fell back.

But, just as he finished speaking and before I could even react, the sharp sound that broke through the air suddenly broke the deadlock at this moment.

Before I could look up, I heard two screams coming from around me.

"ah--!"

I looked up in panic and saw a few silver lights appearing in the air, flying like lightning, and instantly sank into the bodies of the guards dressed as civilians around us.

Suddenly, blood splattered and screamed in terrible voices.

assassin!

These two words flashed through my mind, but the one who reacted faster than me were the soldiers of the Imperial Guards. They immediately gathered their formation and surrounded us, forming a protective wall, surrounding us, surrounding us with airtight. For a moment, we could not see what happened outside, and only heard the sound of arrows breaking through the air, and the sound of those people crying and falling down.

My cold sweat suddenly retracted into my body and shouted loudly: "Li'er!"

This girl rushed over to hold the corner of my clothes since I was injured. At this time, she was scared and looked at everything around her foolishly, and her face turned pale.

Especially, when she saw a guard standing on the outermost side getting caught in an arrow, she screamed and fell to the ground.

A few drops of blood splattered on Li'er's face.

I was afraid that she would be injured by accident, so I was about to reach out to grab her, but I didn't use any strength at all. At this moment, I felt Pei Yuanhao hold my arm with one hand, and the other hand passed through the bend of my legs. With force, I hugged me horizontally.

I suddenly suffocated: "You--"

But he didn't even look at me, and just shouted loudly: "Protect Li'er!"

That sound was shouting at Gu Ping. Gu Ping was originally squatting beside me, and was completely stunned by the sudden attack. Pei Yuanhao shocked him, and he suddenly raised his head and looked at him.

"Protect Li'er!"

He was both stern and thunderous, and Gu Ping suddenly came to his senses from his shock and protected Li'er.

My heart was beating like thunder. I could no longer hear the terrifying screams of the people around me, nor could I hear the sound of arrows breaking through the air, nor could I hear the roars of the guards and assassins. I only felt the temperature of the hands was hot. Although there was chaos around me, it was as firm as a rock. I held me step by step towards the other side of the long street.

The guards were tightly surrounded by us, and the swords in their hands kept waving, like forming a silver iron net, shooting down the arrows that were shot down one after another.

As we walked, we heard the sound of arrows falling to the ground.

My breathing stopped in fear. I turned my head in panic and saw Gu Ping protecting Li'er tightly in his arms. Li'er lay on his shoulders, his face pale, his eyes wide open, looking at the scene behind him.

I was held in Pei Yuanhao's arms and could not see what was happening behind me at all, but I could only hear the sound, and I could feel the fierce attacks of the assassins and the fierce fighting with the guards.

The color of blood seemed to have dyed her eyes.

When I looked at my daughter like this, I felt that my shoulders didn't hurt so much, but the pain in my heart hit my fragile nerves one after another.

At this moment, we walked back to the teahouse we had just made.

The door was closed, and before we could react, Pei Yuanhao had already walked forward with a hug and kicked open the door with a slam.

Everyone in the teahouse hugged on the first floor and whispered something. When they saw the door being kicked open, Pei Yuanhao walked in with me in his arms, and they were all frightened. The boss walked up almost tremblingly: "What are you guys?"

"Get out!"

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Pei Yuanhao.

The man was so scared that he almost fainted and hurriedly retreated. Even the waiters and storytellers who had been talking with him before were coaxed away. Pei Yuanhao hugged me and walked directly into a small private room. When I turned around, I saw that the bead curtains at the door of the private room were shattered, emitting a messy light under the sunlight.

Then, the door closed.

As soon as we entered the teahouse, the guards were divided into two groups. One group entered the teahouse to protect us and surrounded this small private room tightly. Everyone held a sword, and the blade was covered with blood; the other group stayed outside the teahouse. We listened to the shouts of killing outside, and even blood was splattered on the window paper outside.

My eyes widened, looking at the bloody shadows.

At this time, I heard a low sound of chanting Buddha's name from the side. When I looked back, I saw that the boss was just now curled up in the corner, folding his hands and kept chanting Buddha's name.

He was obviously frightened by this incident.

I looked at him like this and surrounded him. The group of guys who had already scared the three souls and seven souls suddenly didn't know what to say. At this moment, I just hope that his chanting Buddha's name will be useful. I just hope that Amitabha can really bless you, even if you don't care about anything, at least to make my daughter safe!

Looking at Li'er, who was protected by Gu Ping in his arms and was pale, I felt my heart throbbing.

The subconscious tremor of my body was immediately noticed by the person holding me. He sat there steadily, lowered his head and looked at me. There was no expression on his face, only his voice, so calm that it seemed that nothing had happened.
