When night falls, the entire land becomes silent.
The gate of the Lin family towers high on a mountain. In front of the gate, there are waterways extending in all directions. All incoming goods, travelers, and commercial ships must dock at the Lin family dock here for unloading and trading.
On both sides of the waterways extending in all directions, there are many traders, fishermen, etc., and various boats loaded with goods are docked densely on the rivers.
On top of its cargo, there were cloth, fruits, flowers, vegetables, fruits, etc. However, at this time, there were many more flower boats tied with red silk on the river, and there was a red boat at the front of the boat. The lantern was swaying, and under the lantern, there was a beautiful streamer fluttering in the wind.
Today is the wedding day of the Lin family, and all the boats are the bride's wedding boats, sailing slowly from far to near.
As the night gradually thickens, the lights on both sides of the bank also light up at this time. The flashing lights are reflected on the water, just like the golden stars in the sky.
At this time, Chen Yanran was also sitting on one of the flower boats, her white hands flat on her knees, and the yellow tassel on her head swayed with the swing of the boat.
Chen Yanran couldn't see the road at this time, so she could only let the boatman on the bow take the boat towards the dock.
Finally, the Huafang stopped. The moment she felt it was docked, Chen Yanran's hijab swayed, and she still couldn't see how gorgeous the scenery outside the boat was.
Until a white and slender hand stretched out and signaled her to get off the boat. At this time, she held her fingers tightly and was helped down by the maid.
When her slender feet wearing red embroidered shoes stepped on the hard stone slabs on the shore, she could feel the thickness of the ground and the solidity of each step.
At this time, Chen Yanran could only see her pair of red embroidered shoes, stretching high on the steps. All the way up, there was the Lin family gate, which was as majestic as a palace.
The strange thing is that the noisy and noisy sounds around him soon became more and more subtle.
The bride in front also suddenly stopped at this time, and all the brides stood on their own steps at this time.
Ahead is the door of the Lin family, but at this moment, the door of the Lin family is tightly closed, and there is no sign of opening the door to welcome the bride.
At this time, the surroundings became strangely quiet, which was completely different from what Chen Yanran expected.
After a while, there was still no movement, and all the brides were doubtful at this time.
Ouyang Xuan'er, the bride at the front of the queue, had already begun to look around. As if she noticed something was wrong, she quickly lifted her hijab. The tassels brushed her delicate face, but she looked like an exotic princess. A beauty that is completely incompatible with this world, those beautiful red lips and cheeks like jade suet.
But then, the next scene made her face turn pale with fear, and her dark pupils suddenly shrank.
At this time, Ouyang Xuan'er saw that the elite guards of the Lin family were lined up around her, and every thirty or forty people had their bows and arrows drawn. They were waiting for the opportunity to shoot arrows, but three of the bows and arrows were pointed at her. , she could see that the arrows on each crossbow had a purple-blue light, and it was obvious that they had been coated with poison.
"Ah!~"
At this time, Ouyang Xuan'er's eyes were filled with tears of fear, and her screams caused a commotion among the other brides.
Hearing this, Chen Yanran could also see the arrows and crossbows aimed at her from under the hijab.
what happened? ? !
At this moment, Chen Yanran took a breath of cold air, her face was calm and stern, and then she quickly thought about how to deal with it without exposing herself.
Immediately, she gently lifted her hijab. In an instant, her face quickly changed from as calm as a knife blade to as frightened and frightened as a weak woman.
At this moment, she looked at the sharp arrows in front of her and was so frightened that she weakly took two steps back and then fell down on the steps.
The cold wind blew across the river, ruffling the hair of all the brides and wrinkled the lantern paper with the word "happy" on it.
Chen Yanran and Ouyang Xuan'er raised their heads in panic, and at the same time looked at a masked man standing on the high platform in the distance, standing with his hands behind his back, looking at them.
The man was dressed in black attire and covered with a bright brown and black fur bear skin. Therefore, this figure gave people a cold and majestic feeling, which made Chen Yanran tremble slightly in her heart unconsciously, as if It's hard to spot if you don't look carefully.
That silent figure seemed to blend into the night sky.
At this moment, beside him stood a guard of the same height as him, with a white jade pendant and purple-blue lines on the back of his hand.
The man slowly took off his mask. At this moment, the cold wind blew by, making his hair a little messy.
This person was none other than Lin Zinuo. He frowned but was very surprised as he looked at the brides surrounded by arrows and crossbows in front of the Lin family's door.
But his current face feels helpless, delicate and masculine.
Lin Zino looked down from a high position, turning his head to look at Chen Yanran who was below. The two looked at each other across the cliff.
Chen Yanran was looking at the delicate and handsome young man. At this moment, a scream suddenly came from behind him, and a bride fell to the ground after hearing the sound.
Lin Zinuo looked down and heard the sound of arrows flying from the bow string in the distance, as well as the screams of the women below. One after another bright red young figures fell to the ground, including Chen Yanran, and Then they fell on the steps one after another.
At this time, Lin Zinuo's eyes were deep, but because of the cold wind, his cheeks turned red.
