Due to time constraints, Qin Xinru did not take a carriage, but chose to ride a fast horse.
She used her true energy to protect the fetus in her belly, and as soon as she left the city, she galloped along the official road.
If one travels through the starry night without resting on the road, it only takes two days and one night to reach Taihu City.
With her cultivation in the third heaven realm, she could survive even being pregnant.
However, when she was galloping along the official road and traveled about eight or nine miles, she suddenly found that someone was following her behind her.
She pretended not to know and observed secretly. She suddenly discovered that the stalkers were two of Su Mou's personal guards. She immediately realized that Su Mou must have sent someone to watch her every move.
Qin Xinru was shocked. This was a situation she had never thought of.
He knew that someone must have gone to the Zhennan Palace to inform Su Mou, and Su Mou was probably already on the way.
If Su Mou catches up with her, she will never go to Taihu City again.
She couldn't even imagine what kind of crazy behavior Su Mou would do after knowing that she was going to Taihu City to find the old prince to seek justice for her, with Su Mou's current violent temper, and whether he would use cruel and merciless means to destroy the fetus in her belly. ?
The more Qin Xinru thought about it, the more frightened she became. She thought that she must get rid of the two people behind her as soon as possible, and then find a way to avoid Su Mou's pursuit.
She came up with a plan. When she was walking on a deserted road, she suddenly fell off her galloping horse and rolled into a haystack by the roadside. She lay motionless on the ground and pretended to faint and die.
The two people who were following her didn't know the situation. When they saw Qin Xinru lying motionless on the grass, they immediately caught up with her in a panic and hurriedly got off their horses to check the situation.
When the two men came forward, Qin Xinru suddenly became angry.
They calculated mentally but not intentionally, and their cultivation level was still lower than that of Qin Xinru. Before they had time to react, their throats were cut by Qin Xinru with a sword, and they died suddenly on the spot.
Qin Xinru buried the body and disposed of it, then ran along the official road for three or four miles, got off the official road at a fork in the road, and ran along the path towards Taihu City.
The gloomy sky made night fall very early, and it was completely dark just after five o'clock.
There was no starlight, no moonlight, and the sight was extremely poor.
Fortunately, a flash of lightning flashed deep in the clouds from time to time, which could briefly light up Qin Xinru's way forward.
There was only light and no thunder, making the dark night even more depressing.
The path was bumpy and bumpy, and the horse's feet were deep and shallow, and Qin Xinru was bumping hard on the horse's back.
Tears kept falling from the corners of her eyes, drifting into the dark night with the desolation and grievance that Qin Xinru had nowhere to express in her heart.
The only thing she was thankful for was that Su Mou didn't catch up.
He probably won't catch up again.
Because tomorrow's Spring Equinox Festival is the day when Baiyun City holds an island survival event, and Su Mou is going to land on the island to have a life-or-death showdown with Zhang Xiaozu and the others.
So he didn't have time to chase her.
If she had known that Su Mou had sent people to keep an eye on her secretly, she would definitely not have chosen to leave the city in a hurry today, but would have waited until Su Mou landed on the island tomorrow.
It's a pity that time can't be turned back, and she doesn't have the chance to make a new choice, so she can only bite the bullet and fight with Su Mou to the end.
Fortunately, her alertness and quick thinking allowed her to win.
A brighter bolt of lightning flashed through the clouds, accompanied by a low rumble of thunder.
"Ah!" A horrified scream came from Qin Xinru's mouth.
He was not frightened by the thunder, but by an unexpected figure on the road ahead.
Under the light of lightning, the ferocious and gloomy face frightened Qin Xinru so much that her heart nearly jumped out of her throat, and she was so frightened that her hair stood on end and she lost her mind.
The lightning flashed away, his vision was blocked by the night again, and the figure in front was also swallowed up by the night.
Qin Xinru pulled the reins sharply and reined in the horse. She stared at the darkness ahead in shock, wondering if she was too anxious and dizzy, or if there was really a figure blocking the way.
The air suddenly became quiet, leaving only the sound of wind in his ears, the heavy snoring of the horse, and Qin Xinru's own nervous heartbeat.
She subconsciously leaned forward, wanting to see further.
Suddenly, a ferocious and gloomy face came out of the darkness and came into her sight. She was so frightened that she trembled suddenly, and her heart skipped several beats before it started beating again.
"My wife is on her way at starry night. Are you in such a hurry and don't know where you are going?" Su Mou's cold voice broke the tranquility of the night.
Qin Xinru suppressed the fear in her heart, knowing that she couldn't hide it, so she simply said directly: "Go to Taihu City and find the old prince."
"Bitch, you are so brave, you actually want to use my father to suppress me." Su Mou shouted.
"A husband is the guide for his wife, how dare I oppress you?" Qin Xinru said with a sad smile, "I just want the old prince to make the decision for me."
"Who are you? I've clearly given you a choice, what else do you want? You just want to marry me, and you're just using your evil son to force me." Su Mou sneered sarcastically.
"Naughty son? Haha, evil son? He is your son, Su Mou. Are you, Su Mou, an evil beast?" Qin Xinru laughed angrily.
"Hmph! It is a sin to come when you are not supposed to come." Su Mou snorted coldly, "Come back with me and abort the fetus. I will forget about it and pretend that nothing happened. Otherwise, don't blame me for being rude."
Qin Xinru smiled miserably.
She was nothing in Su Mou's eyes now. If she aborted the fetus in her belly, she would be nothing. I'm afraid she would be reduced to a brothel prostitute in Su Mou's eyes.
"Tiger poison doesn't eat its own children, how can you, Su Mou, harm human ethics and ethics and kill your unborn child with your own hands?" Qin Xinru asked sharply.
"Don't you have another choice?" Su Mou suddenly raised his lips and smiled evilly.
"Su Mou, Su Mou, do you know what you have done to me in these eight months?" Qin Xinru said sadly and angrily, "You slapped me eight hundred and thirty-seven times and kicked me five hundred and seventy-seven times." Thirteen legs, I broke my ribs again and again, I was covered in bruises almost every day, I-I-"
As she spoke, Qin Xinru burst into tears.
"Brother Su, I am Xinru, your fiancée. You once said you would always protect me and never let me be wronged. What happened to you? Why do you torture and humiliate me like this? " Qin Xinru wailed.
"Is it because I was looked at by Bai Qingqing?"
"But I really didn't mean it, and I already killed him."
"Why can't you forgive me once and have mercy on me?"
"You used to be gentle, considerate, and considerate. Now you are violent, manic, ruthless, and moody. Brother Su, have you noticed that you seem to be a different person? What exactly happened to you?"
As if Qin Xinru's series of cries, pleas, and bitter questions had struck a chord in his heart, Su Mou suddenly showed a painful expression on his face.
"Let's go!"
"Go to Taihu City and don't come back!"
Su Mou suddenly shouted sharply.
"Brother Su, what's wrong with you?!" Qin Xinru couldn't help but asked with concern when she saw Su Mou holding his head in pain.
"Let's go!"
"I have a problem with my practice. I can no longer control myself."
"Go to Taihu City, give birth to our child, and raise him to adulthood. If I can defeat the monster in my body, I will definitely go to Taihu City to bring you mother and son back. If not, Su Mou will owe you in this life, and in the next life I’ll definitely give it back to you.”
"Come on, I can't control it anymore!"
"Let's go!"
Su Mou urged repeatedly.
His facial features have been twisted together, wisps of strange red light are emitting from his body, and his black and white eyes are being eroded by scarlet little by little.
Qin Xinru felt a terrifying aura from Su Mou that she had never experienced before. She felt that a demon was awakening in Su Mou's body.
"Second Brother Su——" Qin's heart burst into tears, and then he realized why Su Mou seemed like a different person.
"drive!"
She did not dare to hesitate any longer, and urged the horse with determination, and rushed past Su Mou, shouting: "Brother Su, hold on, I will ask the old prince for help. He will definitely have a way to save you. Wait. ——”
The sound stopped suddenly, and a sharp sword penetrated her chest. The sword energy instantly cut off her life, leaving her no time to react or think.
She died with the touch Su Mou had given her and with the worry for Su Mou.
The person who killed her was Su Mou.
"This might make your death a little happier."
Su Mou looked at Qin Xinru's lifeless body lying on the horse's back, and couldn't help but smile proudly at the corner of his mouth.
The pain, the struggle, the strange red light were all faked by him.
Click——
Suddenly, a raging thunder tore through the night sky, like the silver sky, swooping down from the turbulent and rolling dark clouds and striking at Su Mou.
boom!
Unfortunately, it was a little crooked, and struck twenty steps in front of Su Mou, creating a large hole in the ground that was as deep as one person, and wisps of smoke rising from the scorched earth.
Su Mou was so frightened that the hairs all over his body stood up. He growled, turned around and ran away.
Da da da--
The horse was frightened and ran wildly in one direction carrying Qin Xinru's body.
But the old horse knew the way. Half an hour later, the horse turned back and ran towards Baiyun City following the memory in its mind.
Qin Xinru's body was still on its back.
…
There is a large lake in the northwest of Baiyun City called Baili Lake.
Baili does not mean that it is really hundreds of miles in circumference, but it describes its size.
There is an island in the middle of the lake, which local people call Baili Island.
This hundred-mile island is where island survival takes place.
The island is fifteen miles wide from north to south and twenty miles long from east to west.
In the south of the island, on the sunny side, there are flourishing flowers, plants and trees; in the north of the island, on the shady side, there is a very wide bush land.
Due to last year's drought, all the shrubs died.
Spring has just begun this year, and a little green is just sprouting from the ground.
Under the dark night sky, there were clusters of bonfires on the bushes, and tents were neatly set up next to the bonfires.
Inside the camp, a red-armored soldier was sleeping soundly.
They were Su Yang's red-armored cavalry, and they had landed on the island three days ago.
Su Yang sent three people to intercept and inquire about the strength of Zhang Xiaozu and others, but only one came back. The answer given to him was one against a thousand, which was unfathomable.
In order to be sure, Su Yang simply brought all the red-armored cavalry, which had been expanded to 50,000, to the isolated island.
The dry and decaying shrub land on the isolated island is perfect for cavalry charge operations.
"A rough estimate, there should be fifty thousand."
On the mountain peak in the middle of the isolated island, in a place hidden from view, Zhang Xiaozu and four others were hiding quietly, taking advantage of the light of lightning to observe the red-armored cavalry camp on the bushes and roughly estimate their number.
"After tomorrow's battle, Brother Zhou and Taiping will entangle Su Yang and Su Mou first, while Da Wa and I will deal with the red armored cavalry as quickly as possible." Zhang Xiaozhu said.
"good."
"No problem." Zhou Jianlai and the others nodded in agreement.
"It's just that we still haven't found Sister Ronger." Niu Dawa frowned and said worriedly.
On the way to Baiyun City, Zhang Xiaopou had already told the story of Qi Ronger's capture. Niu Dawa was so angry that he could do nothing.
He and Zhang Xiaozu went to the island one day early and searched almost the entire island but could not find Qi Ronger.
"He should be imprisoned in the camp by Su Yang, or imprisoned in Zhennan Palace. Monk Su De should take action." Zhang Xiaozhu analyzed, "Anyway, as long as Su Yang is killed, sister Ronger can be rescued."
Niu Dawa nodded.
Both of them are trying to think of the good and not the bad.
"Brother Zhou, do you have any wine? Let the four of us brothers have a drink, just in case tomorrow - just treat it as an early send-off." Zhang Xiaozhu said, "I didn't want you two to get involved, but I think you two will definitely not agree, so just I won’t bother trying to persuade you, because it’s useless to do so.”
"As it should be, we are brothers in life and death." Zhou Jianlai said with a smile.
As he spoke, he took out a jar of wine and four large bowls, opened the mud seals, and filled them one by one.
"Dry!"
The four of them picked up the big white bowls, looked at each other, smiled, and drank the whole drink.
"cough--"
"Brother Zhou, this wine of yours is too damn strong. It's spicy after just one bowl, and you can't taste anything else. Ahem -" Zhang Xiaozu choked on the strong wine and coughed repeatedly.
"Haha, if the wine isn't strong, is it still called wine?" Zhou Jianlai laughed and picked up the wine jar again and filled it for the four of them.
After changing the glasses, a jar of wine was quickly divided among the four people.
Zhou Jianlai and Yuan Taiping swayed, lay down on the ground, and fell asleep.
"You -" Niu Dawa looked at Zhang Xiaozu angrily when he saw this. His first reaction was that Zhang Xiaozu had drugged the wine, because with the cultivation levels of Zhou Jianlai and Yuan Taiping, there was no way they could be intoxicated by this amount of wine.
"Hey, why am I okay?" Niu Dawa originally thought that Zhang Xiaozu must have poisoned his wine, but unexpectedly, he was fine and his mind was very clear. He couldn't help looking at Zhang Xiaozu in confusion, thinking, is it possible? Did you guess too much?
"Because this is a blood feud between us. If you can't kill your enemy with your own hands, your life will be unhappy." Zhang Xiaozu gave Niu Dawa the answer.
"That's right." Niu Dawa stared blankly.
"I gave them two special Ecstasy powder. They won't wake up if they don't sleep for three days. You can get them underground to prevent people or wild beasts from harming them." Zhang Xiaopou said.
"Okay." Niu Dawa responded, and then the earth domain was displayed, wrapping Zhou Jianlai and Yuan Taiping and sinking deep underground.
At a distance of five hundred steps, a beautiful figure walked into the area covered by Zhang Xiaozu's subtle state of mind.
Zhang Xiaozu stood up and looked in surprise.
