Chi Weixue breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I thought it was a big deal, but it's just a trivial matter. Just let go of my hand and I'll let you go."
Turning to Han Shanqing, he said: "Third sister, eldest sister, you two continue to follow the established route, I will follow the night heroine as I go."
The two of them, Dao Linglong and Han Shanqing, seemed to have heard of the name Sleepless Night, and were very relieved about him, without doubting that he was there.
Dao Linglong nodded lightly and said: "Since you came to rescue Jinzhu's daughter with Night Girl, you are also our friend. Second sister, you must do your best to rescue them and not to worry about their lives. We, Yan Zhao San Being alone, I will never let anyone down."
Chi Weixue clasped her fists and accepted the order.
Ye Wumian breathed a sigh of relief.
He took Chi Weixue with him, not because he couldn't handle it alone and needed her help; he kept her just so that he could find Han Shanqing again through her later and avoid losing the whereabouts of the young lady.
I thought Chi Weixue would hesitate for a while, but after his persuasion, she reluctantly agreed to go. Unexpectedly, she was so generous, and the other two girls among the three orphans also took it for granted.
If the three orphans of Yan and Zhao were really born in the land of Yan and Zhao, then the old saying that "Yan and Zhao have been generous and tragic people since ancient times" really does not deceive me!
He gradually developed a good impression of these "Three Orphans of Yan and Zhao".
He sincerely hugged the three of them and said, "That's it, thank you." Then he looked at Dao Linglong and Han Shanqing and said, "Two heroines, please take care, we will meet up later!"
Everyone stopped talking nonsense and divided their troops into two groups. Dao Linglong and Luo Xiangzhu continued to break out of the encirclement. Ye Wumian led Chi Weixue, one behind the other, and turned back toward the inner courtyard.
On the road, I met a Huadan-looking person, wearing a green opera robe, holding a fly whisk, gesturing in the cold wind, and singing an opera.
Ye Wumian had no intention of listening, but this Hua Dan had excellent singing skills, with powerful pronunciation that penetrated the wind and sent the lyrics directly to his ears.
Hua Dan sang: "This slave is a girl, not a man. Why is he wearing a yellow sash around his waist and a straight skirt?"
This voice was faint and resentful, desolate and clear, as if there was an overwhelming pain of loneliness that could not be expressed.
In the sleepless night, I remembered that in the local opera in my hometown of Henan, there was a song called "Sifan", which tells the story of a 28-year-old nun who couldn't bear the loneliness of youth and finally returned to secular life.
Some of its arias are similar to the lyrics.
But looking at the attire of this actress, it is definitely not the Yuqu style. It seems to be a very novel type of opera that I have never seen before.
These many thoughts only lasted for a moment in his mind, and he stopped thinking about them.
The actress sang alone, with no one to appreciate her, and she sang very hard. She stayed up all night and stopped listening to the next lines. She just repeated the sentence in her mind, "This slave is a girl, not a man..."
He smiled bitterly and said, "This is interesting. You are a girl, and you pretend to be a man. I am a man, and I often show myself in skirts and hairpins. Even when I go to save the young lady I miss, I don't show my true colors."
The heart of self-deprecation was strong for a while. I can actually sympathize with this little beauty and feel sympathy for her.
Suddenly I remembered the custom of watching operas in my hometown. Whenever an actor performs brilliantly, the audience would not only cheer but also throw in three or two copper coins to encourage him.
I don't want to cheer tonight, but I can invest money.
Ye Wumian quickly reached into his arms and took out a broken piece of silver. No matter how heavy it was, he threw it lightly and threw it in front of Hua Dan.
Since this actress can sing in the palace, she must not be in need of money. But when she saw the money dropped, she hesitated and lost her mind for a while.
He turned around and looked in the direction Ye Wumian was running towards, trying hard to remember his profile, and sang louder, as if he was inspired by the affirmation, no longer the solitary self-admiration he had before.
"In the deep night, I lie down alone, and when I get up, I sit alone. Is there someone as lonely and miserable as me..."
Hua Dan's voice was still in his ears, and Ye Wumian had already seen Lin Yuzhui, Chan Yi, and Zhu Houmao chasing closely behind them.
Just as he was about to speak, Chi Weixue suddenly said: "If you have any silver coins left, give me one and I will pay you back in the future."
Ye Wumian immediately gave her a large ingot of silver, estimated to weigh twenty taels. Chi Weixue said in shock: "Is this broken... broken silver?"
Ye Wumian said: "But don't worry about it so much. By the way, what are you doing with the silver? Is it to be used as a hidden weapon?"
He had experienced two different kinds of hidden weapons tonight: sparks and blow darts. For a moment, he thought inertly and thought that Chi Weixue was asking for money and that it was also used as a hidden weapon.
"Silver can be used as a hidden weapon... Okay, that's a good idea. I'll give it to my third sister next time." Chi Weixue rolled her eyes and explained, "I saw you rewarded that actress, what a coincidence, I also I love her play, but it’s a pity that when I come to save people tonight, I can’t bring any money with me, so I have to borrow money from you to reward her and borrow flowers to offer to the Buddha.”
Ye Wumian nodded and said: "Okay, if she is still singing when we break out later, you can reward her again."
He pointed at Lin Yuzhui and Chan Yi and said: "These two sisters are my partners. They are the best women in this world. Let's deal with the pursuers together and save them!"
"There is a person with an extraordinary appearance and the air of a female general. She is a role model for our generation. Even if she is not your friend, I should save her."
Chi Weixue drew her sword out of its scabbard and took two moves. "The silver saddle shines on the white horse, and it rustles like a shooting star." It rushed towards Zhu Hou behind the two girls.
When Zhu Hou risked his pursuit earlier, he did not hesitate to use up his internal energy. When he reached this point, he was already at the end of his efforts.
He was just in a smooth state. If he didn't meditate and adjust his breath, his internal strength would be very slow to recover. Now Chi Weixue's sword was flying like a killing immortal. How could he have the energy to resist or dodge?
His pupils were wide open, and the crisis of death made his scalp numb. He couldn't even scream. He only thought that this situation was a certain death, and he secretly shouted in his heart: "My life is over!"
Seeing that the future Prince Ji was about to return to heaven, a three-pronged fork, at the right time, stood in front of him and saved his life from the hands of the bull-headed horse-faced man.
When Zhu Hou got up and took a look, he saw it was the family general Lu Feng and said happily: "General Lu, hurry up, kill these people with me, and I will ask my grandfather to give you a hundred taels of gold!"
Lu Feng gave a bitter smile, resisting Chi Weixue's fierce sword power, and said: "Your Highness, Shisun, there is only Chi Weixue, it is extremely difficult for me to deal with, let alone there is someone around me who is eyeing him? Your Highness, please leave quickly, and you will hold on to your humble position." After a while, I’m afraid I’ll be unable to support you alone, and I won’t be able to save you even if I die!”
Zhu Hou was filled with joy and sorrow, and said in despair: "How could this happen? How could this happen? Isn't this the ground of my Prince Ji's Mansion? A few homeless people actually pushed me to the point of life and death?"
Lu Feng narrowly blocked the sword thrust, panting heavily, not caring much, and shouted to Zhu Houmao: "Quickly go! Go to the Yangxin Hall, the prince and the others are all there, I can keep you safe."
"Since grandpa is here, why didn't he come?" Zhu Hou stumbled and muttered to himself, as if he had lost his soul, abandoned Lin Yu, chased the two daughters, and went to the Heart Palace to be raised.
He stayed up all night chasing after Zhu Houmao, so he quickly went to see Lin Yuchui and Chan Yi.
