"Second brother, Granny Cui, I'll leave this to you. Wanrou and I will go rescue people first..." Su Qiqi hurriedly gave Nangong Yu and Granny Cui a few words, then pulled Wanrou and ran downstairs, asking Miss Yan chased her in the direction of escape.
In an alley not far from Qingyun Tower, Yan Ruoyu ran all the way, dripping with sweat and panting. A few feet away, brothers Xiao Jie and Xiao Kai were chasing after him.
Seeing that Yan Ruoyu was about to be caught up by the Xiao brothers, Zheng Miao was so shocked that she shouted: "Stop!". Su Qiqi also lost her beauty. In a panic, she randomly picked a few leaves from a laurel tree by the street, flicked them, and shot them towards the twin brothers.
The Xiao brothers noticed the power of the hidden weapon roaring from behind, and they all turned around, swung their swords to cut down the rapidly flying leaves, and then looked at Su Qiqi and Zheng Miao with frowning eyebrows. Yan Ruoyu hurriedly took the opportunity to turn into a side alley next to her.
When Xiao Jie saw that the person he wanted to capture ran away, his expression turned gloomy. He glared at Su Qiqi, raised his sword and continued to chase after him. Xiao Kai said firmly: "Little girl! Mind your own business!" He turned around and ran towards the side alley.
Su Qiqi was stunned for a moment, but still called to Zheng Miao and continued to follow. She still believed in her heart that the girl just now was most likely Yan Ruoyu! Now that she was in trouble, how could he just stand by and watch!
Thinking of this, she quickened her pace, took out a few more coins from her waist, and once again ejected them towards the Xiao brothers in front, trying to block their actions and give Yan Ruoyu a chance to escape.
Xiao Jie and Xiao Kai once again noticed the fierce force coming from behind. The two of them quickly dodged aside and looked sideways at Su Qiqi. Their eyes were burning with anger, as if they wanted to give this "spoiler" who rushed out halfway a lesson.
Seeing that she had annoyed the other party, Su Qiqi felt slightly uneasy, but when she thought of Yan Ruoyu's safety, she felt relieved. Although the identity of the other party is unclear, it is too much for two grown men to bully a girl.
Thinking of this, she stood with her sword indifferently and asked the Xiao brothers: "Why are you chasing that girl?" Zheng Miao also bluffed: "This is not far from the prefect's Yamen. If you commit crimes in broad daylight, you are not afraid of the prefect." Arrest you?"
Xiao Jie snorted coldly and said contemptuously: "Our master's affairs are not for the little fourth-grade official to take care of..."
"Hey! You don't even draft a draft when you're bragging... Could it be that your master is a relative of the emperor..." Zheng Miao couldn't help but reply.
"You're really right...our master is..." Xiao Kai was talking proudly when he was suddenly interrupted by his brother.
"Xiao Kai, don't talk nonsense!" Xiao Jie shouted sternly. Xiao Kai immediately fell silent and stepped aside.
Su Qiqi became even more curious after listening to their conversation. It seems that the distinguished guests in the private room next to Qingyun Tower just now should be princes, uncles and other important figures. But why did these big shots come to Hangzhou? How did Yan Ruoyu provoke these heavyweights?
Su Qiqi's heart felt like a mess, and she couldn't sort out her thoughts for a while. Forget it, if you have the chance to meet Yan Ruoyu, just ask her face to face!
While Su Qiqi was thinking silently, Xiao Jie spoke again: "You two girls, I advise you not to get involved in this matter anymore...don't make yourself miserable..." After that, he called Xiao Kai to continue chasing Yan Ruoyu. .
Su Qiqi tasted his words carefully, always feeling that there was some mystery in them. She pondered for a while and then said to Zheng Miao: "What do you think?"
"I...my head is a mess right now...I think he is threatening us...there must be something fishy about this..." Zheng Miao blinked and said seriously.
Su Qiqi sighed and said, "Let's go! Let's save the people first and then..." After that, she supported Zheng Miao, started her Qinggong, and chased after him again.
A secluded corner of the street. Yan Ruoyu's pace gradually slowed down. She carefully looked around, and when she saw that the Xiao brothers had not caught up, she took a long breath and said, "Oh! I'm so exhausted!" After that, she rested for a while holding on to the wall next to her, and planned to continue. Go forward.
Just as she was about to take steps towards another alley, she suddenly heard a sound of slight footsteps approaching her. Yan Ruoyu retreated to the corner where she was resting like a frightened rabbit, patting her chest gently with her hands to calm the intense panic in her heart.
After a while, the figures of the Xiao brothers appeared at the intersection, less than ten feet away from where she was hiding. She was breathing quickly and nervously. what to do?
Just when she was at her wits' end, an old wooden door beside her suddenly opened. Su Qiqi leaned half of her body out and quickly pulled Yan Ruoyu in. Zheng Miao helped close the wooden door.
"Ah! Help...life..." Yan Ruoyu was stunned by the sudden situation and almost screamed. Su Qiqi hurriedly covered her mouth and whispered in her ear: "Ruoyu! I am Qiqi! Miao Miao is here too..."
Yan Ruoyu turned around in shock and said with surprise and joy: "It's you! I thought you had just stepped out of the tiger's den and into the wolf's den..."
Su Qiqi and Zheng Miao rolled their eyes at her, and then asked with concern: "Why did you also travel through time?"
"It's a long story, let's talk about it another day... I have to find a place to avoid the limelight first..." Yan Ruoyu said solemnly.
Only then did Su Qiqi remember the crisis at hand. She stared for a moment and thought carefully, then said: "You come with me first..." After that, Su Qiqi quickly left this abandoned old house with Zheng Miao and Yan Ruoyu, heading towards the direction of Weiyuan Escort Agency.
As soon as the three of them left, the Xiao brothers broke into the door. Based on the footprints in the room, they deduced the direction in which Su Qiqi and others fled, and continued to pursue them.
About a quarter of an hour later, Su Qiqi heard slight footsteps again behind her. She followed the sound, and the figures of the Xiao brothers jumped into view again.
Su Qiqi stopped in a hurry, guarded Zheng Miao and Yan Ruoyu behind her, and looked at the Xiao brothers who were filled with murderous auras with vigilance.
"It's you again!" Xiao Jie's eyes showed a fierce light and he sneered word by word.
Su Qiqi didn't say anything, but just stared at the Xiao brothers' every move.
"If you are sensible, hand over that female thief quickly...or don't blame us for being rude..." Xiao Kai threatened in a stern voice while drawing his sword.
"Do you...do you have any misunderstanding?...Can you make it clear in person?" Although Su Qiqi was very unhappy with the other party's arrogant attitude, she still tried her best to control her emotions, hoping to communicate well with the other party and find out more about it. The whole story.
"Your friend, she pretended to be a fortune teller, told my master's fortune, and took the opportunity to steal one of my master's treasures..." Xiao Jie pointed at Yan Ruoyu and said angrily.
"Ah? She... stole your... treasure? No, it's impossible... she's not that kind of person!" Su Qiqi and Zheng Miao both shook their heads resolutely, showing expressions of disbelief.
"Hmph! You are her friends, so you will naturally excuse her... However, she must hand over the treasure now... Otherwise you will not be able to get away with it..." Xiao Kai snorted coldly and said with a smile. .
"You guys are talking nonsense! When the prince opened the box, it was already empty... Maybe you were the ones who stole it..." Yan Ruoyu's face turned red and he shouted angrily.
Su Qiqi looked at Yan Ruoyu, then at the Xiao brothers, and felt that their expressions didn't look like they were lying. She couldn't help but murmur in her heart, what's the mystery behind this?
