It was obviously just a very simple word without any consciousness, but I felt the chest that was close to my chest fluctuated violently, and his breath became heavier at this moment.

He had a grubby throat and a strong nasal voice whispered: "I won't leave you."

“…”

I was drowsy, and finally, at this moment, slowly lowered my eyelids.

The last thing I heard in my ears was the sound of everyone shouting and whipping on the horse. Although the horses were flying and shaking, his hands were always holding me tightly, without letting go of it. It felt like there was a solid support in the storm, and I slowly sank into the darkness.

|

During this sleep, I felt like I had been sleeping in a dark place. I don’t know how long it had been, but when I felt a slight bump and opened my hot eyelids, I found that it was pitch black around me, and the sky was still dark blue. Only a few starlight made me realize that I was looking at the sky.

Then, I saw the face hidden under the mask.

He looked down at me, his eyes shining in such a late night.

"I woke you up?"

My eyes were pulled by his eyes, but in fact my mind had not returned to my body. After a long time, I opened my dry lips and said softly: "Cold..."

He suddenly became a little anxious, looked up at the front, and then looked down at me: "We have arrived. Wait a minute, and I will ask them to prepare hot water and bedding for you immediately."

“…”

This time, I finally woke up a little, and the noise of the surrounding people made my mind slowly return to myself. Turning around, I saw that everyone around me was dismounted. In front of me was a small inn. The lanterns at the door were shaking lightly and darkly in the night, but gave people a particularly warm feeling.

I curled up in his arms slightly.

He thought I was cold and walked forward even more, but just as we were about to enter the gate of the inn, suddenly, a man swayed and fell down from the horse's back.

Then I heard Chabixing shouting: "Be careful!"

The shout shocked both of us. Liu Qinghan looked back and immediately widened his eyes, hurriedly hugged me and turned around and walked back. The one who fell to the ground was the Supreme Emperor Pei Ji!

Perhaps hearing the chaos here, someone from the inn immediately ran over with a lantern. The light flashed, illuminating Pei Ji's pale face as pale as paper and his back. A broken arrow pierced deeply into his back. A little cold light came out from under his ribs and pierced his body.

Blood almost dyed most of his body red.

When they saw this, everyone around them exclaimed.

My heart also sank.

Why did he get shot? When did he get shot? He—

I suddenly remembered that when we were almost escaping to the border river, thousands of arrows were fired behind me. On my side, Zhesheng was sitting behind me and blocked all the damage for me. I just saw that he was hit by several arrows on his back, and he was helped in the ground with blood flowing all over the ground, but I forgot that the Supreme Emperor was sitting behind Chabixing, and his back was completely exposed to the attack range of those people!

Chabixing's face also turned pale: "You were shot in an arrow, why didn't you say it earlier!"

Pei Ji's face was pale in pain and almost fainted. He had no strength to speak. When Liu Qinghan saw it, he hurriedly said, "Hurry him in, look for the medicine for the injury, look for the medicine for the injury!"

For a moment, everyone became panicked again and carried Pei Ji in with all their might. I was also carried by Liu Qinghan into the inn. This place should be a place he had prepared before. Someone had prepared hot water and food, as well as the forage and horses. He asked the others to go down and rest quickly, because they would continue to rush tomorrow morning, and then took me upstairs. In a relatively large and comfortable room, everyone was surrounded by the bed. Although they could not see what was inside, someone had already sighed with regret.

When Liu Qinghan walked to the door, hesitated for a moment.

I whispered, "I'll go in by myself."

"Can you do it?"

"Um."

He thought about it and put me down. The felt wrapped around me was half wet. When I stepped on the ground, I fell two wet footprints. He held me with one hand and half holding me with the other. The people hurriedly retreated to both sides.

When he walked to the bed, he saw Pei Ji lying there, most of the bed was dyed red, his face and lips were not bloody, and his eyes were tightly closed.

On the other side, Chabixing pulled the arrow from his back and looked up to see us, his eyes shook his head slightly red.

As soon as I saw him like this, my heart sank.

This time we escaped, we had known that there would be casualties, and we knew that anyone might be the one who fell down, but I was really not mentally prepared. This person was Pei Ji. Especially when everyone saw an old man lying there covered in blood, he still couldn't accept it.

Chabixing said in a hoarse voice: "I'm too careless."

At this time, Xiao Yusheng came over and reached out to support his shoulders and said, "In this case, you can't cover everything, don't blame yourself."

"No, I--"

His eyes were red, and he gritted his teeth and held back tears, but he couldn't help feeling guilty and discomfort in his heart: "I can't protect him, let alone save the teacher. I-I'm useless!"

After saying that, he rushed out.

Liu Qinghan's face froze suddenly, and he turned to look at us: "What did he say?"

“…”

For a moment, all the students around him lowered their heads, and a few of them even started to cry. Xiao Yusheng's eyes were red, and he stood there with his fists clenched, and tears filled his eyes. It was hard for everyone to accept Fu Badai's death, but when he was escaping, everyone was on the verge of life and death, not caring about sorrow or pain, but now, all the sorrow and pain surged in this moment.

He was frozen there, and even stood unsteadily, and took several steps back one after another.

Someone hurriedly helped him: "San Master, are you okay?"

He couldn't speak, his face was as pale as the silver mask. His unscrupulous eyes looked at me, and my eyes immediately became wet, but he couldn't confirm anything in person, so he just nodded slightly.

He fell into a chair.

I was about to walk over, but at this moment, an old and weak voice came from behind me: "Come back... come back..."

Everyone's attention suddenly shifted, and the person on the bed who was already in a semi-unconscious suddenly opened his eyes, reached out and grabbed it in the air, muttering: "Come back, come back..."

My steps became weak and I staggered to the edge of the bed and sat down: "The Supreme Emperor..."

He suddenly heard my voice, his expression slightly stagnated, and his gray eyes looked around blankly. After a while, he finally found a little light and slowly looked at me: "It's you."

"It's me."

"Why are you here?"

“…”

"Where is your mother?"

“…”

I was stunned for a moment, and immediately realized that he was already a little confused now.

Although I knew I shouldn't cry, tears could no longer be controlled and flooded from my eyes. I sobbed and said, "My mother, she is in Xichuan..."

"Xichuan? Oh, I remember that she went to Xichuan and she went on a tour."

"Yes, the Supreme Emperor," I cried and said, "She is waiting for you there. You have to be fine. Now we are going to Xichuan. If you are fine, you can see her."

“…”

He didn't say anything, but looked at me silently for a long time, and suddenly smiled: "You lied to me."

“…”

I looked at him with tears in my eyes. Before I could say anything, he smiled and said, "When she left, she said she would never meet, but she would never meet. How could she wait for me?"

I felt a stinging pain in my heart. Once the already fragile disguise was torn apart, I didn't even have the strength to hold on. Tears flowed down my cheeks, dripping onto the mattress. He raised his thin hand, wiped my face with his already cold palm, and then said, "I remember, we have escaped, right?"

"Well, we escaped."

"That's good."

“…”

"After all, I didn't drag you down."

When I heard him say this, I couldn't help it. I lay on the bed and cried bitterly. He just wanted to avoid worrying that he would hide his own attacks all the way. Everyone was struggling on the verge of life and death, and no one could care about him. He had endured such great pain, but now he could only wait for death weakly here!

I cried and said, "Grand Emperor, I was wrong... I would be fine if I didn't save you..."

If I didn't want to save him, at least he could still be in the Linshui Pagoda safely now.

Hearing me say this, a bitter smile appeared on his pale face: "Silly girl, do you really think that if you don't save me, can you survive today?"

I looked up and looked at him with tears in my eyes.

He shook his head: "You still don't understand the emperor's nature."

“…”

Speaking of this, he also smiled faintly: "Forget it, forgot."

After saying this, the smile seemed to be unable to hold on. I saw blood foam suddenly gushing out of his mouth, and his whole body twitched in pain.

"Grand Prince! What's wrong with you, the Supreme Prince?"
