Mother Su had a friend who temporarily stayed in the Buddhist temple. She brought her own pastries and some valuables, hoping to visit her old friend together. It was said that the old friend had a peculiar temperament, so mother Su only asked her eldest daughter-in-law who was familiar with the old friend to carry things and accompany her to go. Qiqi and her two sisters-in-law were asked to stroll in the Buddhist temple for a while before going to wait for them at the gate.
The sisters-in-law mentioned the lotus pond to Qiqi and dragged her to visit the lotus pond. Qiqi had been to this lotus pond before. She had come with Shen Zhonghua in the previous life and also once accompanied him to admire the lotus in the pavilion on the lake.
At that time, the wind was blowing the lotus and the pavilion was swaying gently. Back then, Su Lianxue hadn’t yet climbed the palace and entered the house which was considered a few good times in Qiqi’s memory. Shen Zhonghua stood with his hands behind his back and gazed far away. Qiqi stood with his hand stretched three steps away in silence as if she was his shadow.
At that time, Qiqi thought if time could go on like that and she could always be with him like that, even as an indispensable shadow, she thought it was very good. Back then she had nothing and she didn’t dare to ask for anything. She was truly foolish at that time......
Qiqi was looking at a pair of butterflies flying on the lotus and suddenly she heard something. Her eyes suddenly became sharp!
As if the stone had broken the calm surface of the lake and the surrounding atmosphere seemed to wash and rise, rippling one after another. Qiqi’s nerves became tense. Immediately following, she heard the sound of the wind being struck and her intuition told her: “Five people!”
Five well-trained assassins gathered here in a blast.
“Be careful!” The instant the five masked men broke through the wind and revealed their figures, Qiqi responded quickly. She hastily reached out and pushed her two sisters-in-law away, saying: “Run quickly!”
“Ah!” Seeing people holding long swords, everyone fled in chaos. The second sister-in-law Liu-shi originally wanted to reach out to pull Qiqi, but she was pushed away by the chaotic crowd: “Little sister-in-law! Little sister-in-law!”
The crowd was chaotic and Liu-shi was also in a panic. She was separated from Qiqi in an instant. She was pushed by the crowd and staggering away.
“I’m fine!” Thinking whether the two sisters-in-law could hear it or not, Qiqi shouted toward them.
The force of a sword broke through the air. Qiqi instinctively threw out the dagger in her sleeve. She wanted to stab the man when he turned, but her wrist was held by someone. Qiqi lifted her head to look at the person, but she only saw the cyan robes leisurely in the wind. The person jumped forward and said to Qiqi before he went up: “Close your eyes.”
His tone was warm, not impatient, and his voice was calm but not indifferent.
A puff of white smoke filled the air. Qiqi hurriedly reached out to cover her face. She frowned. She didn’t know who this person was but saw the assassins’ fierce swords were all heading toward the young man. Qiqi was clear that this cyan-robed young man was the target of those assassins.
It was just in the blink of an eye those swords fell to the ground and broke everywhere. The assassins were already killed before they could scream.
The wind blew the hem corner of the cyan-robed young man like a cool breeze playing with bamboo. From the back view, the young man who was in formal robes and crown looked more like a scholar but one didn’t know there were such good martial arts.
The young man turned around. His facial appearance was clear without obstruction and had a distinguished bearing. Seeing Qiqi didn’t close her eyes, but looked at everything in front of her indifferently and was apathetic to life or death. He actually smiled slightly and said to her: “Daughter of a family shouldn’t see such a scene of fighting and killing.”
Qiqi turned around and said indifferently: “What scene? I had not seen it.”
Qiqi turned around and went to find her two sisters-in-law who were separated from her. But without taking a few steps, she suddenly heard the breathing of the person behind her was urgent and disordered. She paused on her footstep. She thought the young man was quite skilled and didn’t want to care about it, but she suddenly heard the sound of a sharp weapon breaking through thin air. Qiqi no longer thought much. She turned around and threw the dagger in her sleeve!
With a “ding!” sound, the dagger knocked down the hidden weapon. Qiqi had little thought about it, throwing another dagger back and killing the other assassin hiding in the tree.
“Damn......” The cyan-robed young man’s complexion was pale and kneeled on one knee. He was still smiling with a faint smiling expression as if it was of no concern to himself and said: “Who would have thought the other side would use poison......”
