There had just been a rain last night, so raindrops fell from time to time on the eaves, wetting Zhen'er's hair and clothes.
The road ahead was getting narrower and narrower, and her walk was getting harder, her clothes clinging to the slippery wall, her shoulders and sleeves were cut by rough stones, and she had to turn slightly sideways and turn her body at a slight angle to move on.
Fortunately, the conversation behind her gradually became inaudible, Zhen'er turned around and found that Steward Wang and Li Shen had already walked away, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in her heart, she didn't want her carefully planned "escape" plan to be implemented in less than half a day, and then she was cut off.
You know, in order to be able to carry out this operation smoothly, she has been planning for several months, today because there are distinguished guests coming, so early in the morning, several of her personal maids were called to the front yard to help prepare the dishes, she saw the opportunity, climbed into the delivery carriage, bumped in the carriage for more than half an hour, and then took advantage of the unpreparedness, sneaked out of the car, and breathed the long-awaited free air.
Now, standing between the two walls, she looked back and forth, wondering whether to move on or go back to the street.
There is not much left in the road ahead, and she can go out after walking a few dozen steps, but she is afraid that she will be caught by the wall before she finishes walking, but if she retreats and arrives at Yujie, what if she runs into Manager Wang and Li Shen again?
After thinking about it, Zhen'er decided to take a risk, she didn't turn her head, and continued to walk towards the glimmer of light in front of her, her body was almost completely sideways, and she rubbed forward little by little as if she was sticking to the wall.
Twenty steps, no, almost ten more steps, she will be able to break free from this oppressive space, Zhen'er took a deep breath, she was now convinced that she would be able to wear it, as long as she sucked her stomach again and spit out this breath in her chest "Smack."
A drop of rain slammed down on top of her head, then scattered into several drops and slid down her smooth forehead.
Zhen'er reached out and wiped her face, and the moment she looked up, she saw something sticking out of the eaves on the left.
At first, she thought it was just a resting bird, because according to normal thinking, only birds could stop high on the eaves, and she really couldn't think of anything else that could climb so high and dangerous.
But as soon as she lowered her head, she felt that something was wrong, was the bird's head so big?
Almost fills the space between the two walls.
Her heart tightened suddenly, and she raised her head again, only to find that the thing had stretched a few feet downward, and the blazing sunlight shone on it from top to bottom, so white that she could not distinguish its appearance.
Zhen'er lowered her head suddenly, held the wall with both hands, and squeezed out with all her strength, she hated herself very much now, why was she so arrogant, why she had been ordered by her father for so many years, and she still ignored his advice and had to leave the house by herself.
Dad is right, it seems to be lively and prosperous outside, but in fact it is full of dangers, I don't know when, I will be targeted by bad people, and I may be separated from my relatives from yin and yang.
Zhen'er had never taken his words to heart, but now, she believed them.
The thing above his head, of course, was not a resting bird, how could the bird cling to the wall and crawl down head-down, besides, it was still such a big mass, so white that it was dazzling, like a quilt blown by the wind.
There was a sound of "rustling" rubbing against the wall overhead, Zhen'er didn't dare to look up this time, she was afraid that if she saw the appearance of the thing clearly, she would be weak and unable to take a step forward, but even if she didn't raise her head, after moving a few steps forward, she still couldn't walk, because she underestimated the narrowness of the wall, and now she has been sandwiched between the two walls, and she can no longer take a step forward.
The shadow overhead grew lower and lower, obscuring out the daylight, and at the same time, a deep chill swept over her from top to bottom, making her feel like she was in an ice cave.
"Dada" The rustling sound was faintly mixed with another strange sound, like a wooden stick hitting the wall, one after another, from far to near But now Zhen'er has no mind to figure out what kind of sound this is, she is in a hurry, her body rubs the wall and moves in the opposite direction, there is no way forward, there is simply a way back to retreat, she is desperate at the moment, walking in the direction of the way she came, the space is getting more and more abundant, and the speed of her movement is getting faster and faster, more and more urgent, finally, her whole body can be straightened, so she bites her lip tightly, and runs towards the direction of Yujie with all her strength.
However, the thing behind her didn't seem to want to let her go, and at this moment, it also fell down the wall into the alley, chasing after her.
"Dada" It was as if the stick was tapping against the stone-paved pavement, faster and faster, and it seemed to be close at hand, and the cold breath even sprayed on her earlobe.
Zhen'er cried, not for herself, but for her father, did he have to experience the pain of losing his daughter again and lose his last daughter in the year of the sixtieth year?
Why is she so willful, she doesn't listen to his teachings, and does things that she regrets.
Her scalp tightened, her hair was pulled from behind, she stumbled under her feet, her body leaned back, and she was about to fall, but her fingers grabbed the gap between the two green bricks, and her nails were broken, but she still didn't let go.
"Help, help."
Zhen'er shouted frantically at the royal street, the figure in front of her was longing, the traffic was busy, but the noise was so loud that no one could hear her cry for help.
Zhen'er leaned back, trying to support herself from falling backwards, she knew that if she really fell, she would never be able to get up again, and in this life, she would never see her father again.
"Help me, who's going to save me" She cried and yelled outside, the force behind her growing, the cold, smooth thing gradually approaching her, and she could feel it standing up and lunging towards her.
At the last moment, Zhen'er gritted her teeth and rushed forward, tearing off a strand of green silk and breaking free from the shackles behind her.
At the same time, a fiery figure flashed at the entrance of the alley, and the man rode on a reddish-brown horse, passing in front with his head held high.
"Help me."
Duan Zhen'er flew forward, "Hero, help." ” The fiery red figure turned his head into the alley, his eyes shining, "Strongman?
My lord, some people call me a strong man. ”
