Qi Mojing was extremely fast, passing through the people running around him and sprinting towards the other end. Not far behind him, several assassins also rose from the water and chased straight towards him.

Several figures passed through the crowd, and the people who had no time to retreat were all frightened and scrambled to scatter in all directions.

Seeing the accident on the dragon boat on the river bank, Liang Zhou also felt that the danger was imminent, so he quickly protected Hua Ying and Shi Nian from the tree, intending to take Shi Jin with him to the city.

They had already deviated from the crowd, and now they did not have to endure the panic of the people on the river bank. They just accelerated their pace, tried their best to avoid the rushing crowd, and gradually approached the west city gate.

The further back they went, the more people there were. Shi Jin sensed something was wrong and quickly grabbed a person who was running out and asked, "Why don't you go into the city?"

The man originally wanted to break free, but when he saw it was a young woman, he immediately responded, "The city guards are out in force. Now the people are blocked outside the west city gate and are not allowed to enter or exit at will."

The few people hesitated for a moment and decided to return to the high hill. If they stayed here, they might be drowned by the huge crowd before the city gate opened.

Shi Jin held Shi Nian's hand and turned back with Liangzhou and Huaying.

After running back and forth several times, even Shi Jin was very tired.

Seeing that there were fewer people around, she was about to wipe the sweat from her forehead, but she didn't expect that the city guards had already driven away the crowd and were rushing towards the dragon boat.

Because the group of guards were tall and had spears and shields in their hands, everyone around them was driven to the side. They were crowded together, and Shi Jin disappeared in the blink of an eye.

She stood on tiptoe to look, and saw Liang Zhou and Shi Nian squeezing in this direction, but within a moment, the crowd enveloped them and disappeared.

It was not easy to look for them now, so Shi Jin could only follow his memory and slowly walk towards the high hill, while walking, he always paid attention to Shi Nian's traces.

Fortunately, Liang Zhou was still protecting Shi Nian, otherwise she would have been really uneasy.

The further you go towards the high hills, the fewer people there are, but there is still no trace of Shi Nian.

Shi Jin slightly hesitated and decided to head towards the willow tree again. If they came back, they would definitely be waiting for him there.

However, she walked around under the willow tree a few times and called her childhood a few more times. Through the overlapping green, she could not see any trace of the three of them.

At this moment, a slight coughing sound came from an old locust tree with leafy branches not far away.

Shi Jin paused, feeling a little wary, and walked very carefully to the locust tree.

The locust tree was so tall and had so many leaves that it was hard to see who was above it under the overlapping shadows.

Shi Jin couldn't help lowering his voice and said tentatively, "Shi Nian? Is that you?"

Qi Mojing's arm was injured, and she was hiding in the locust tree to bandage the wound when she heard Shi Jin's soft call while standing under the tree.

He couldn't help but hesitate, he really didn't know why she came here.

Suddenly, the tips of his ears twitched, and he heard the sound of subtle footsteps on the grass, as if they were looking for this side.

He was alert, and with a long rope in his hand, he rolled the brocade up the tree trunk.

Shi Jin felt her waist tighten, and her body flew into the air. Before she could shout, a hand covered her mouth.

She was so frightened that she didn't dare to move. The man in the silver mask made a shushing gesture and pressed her against a very thick branch.

Shi Jin's eyes were wide open and she looked straight at him, but she was so obedient that she didn't dare to make a sound.

Qi Mojing was still annoyed with her, his eyes became cold for a moment, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and his lips as beautiful as peach plums pressed against her ear, "Don't make a sound, otherwise... you will die without a complete body."

Shi Jin nodded quickly. At that moment, the assassin who had left and returned was wandering under the locust tree, seemingly suspicious and wanted to find out the figure of the man in red.

At this moment, Qi Mojing suddenly attacked, and with a long rope in his hand, he rushed straight towards the assassin below.

The assassin's movements were extremely swift. He rolled and dodged the long rope, and the dagger in his hand flew out, stabbing Shi Jin exactly on the tree.

Shi Jin was so frightened that a very low gasp escaped from his mouth. He only heard a "clang" sound, and the force of the other dagger was so fast that it blocked the first dagger. The two daggers were inserted into the other side at the same time.

On a branch.

When she looked down in shock, she saw two red and black figures under the tree.

Both of them had lost their sharp weapons, and they only had two pairs of fists to fight back and forth. However, the sound of the heart-wrenching blows was very strange and terrifying.

Shi Jin saw the two people fighting, and quietly moved his body, trying to pull the dagger out of the tree trunk.

However, maybe the two of them were too strong, and the dagger was almost halfway in. She used a lot of strength to pull out the dagger.

At exactly this moment, a shattering sound that pierced the eardrums was heard, and the mask on the man in red split into two halves.

"You..." The assassin opened his eyes wide and looked at the man in red as if in disbelief. However, before he could say any more words, half of the sharp edge of the mask pierced the man's chest.

From Shi Jin's perspective, he saw the man in red standing under the tree with his back to him. The mask in his hand turned into a sharp blade, stabbing into the assassin's body.

After about twenty or thirty stabbings, the man dropped the mask in his hand, tore off a corner of the man in black's clothes, and wiped his blood-stained hands.

At this moment, he seemed to feel something and raised his head to look in the direction of Shi Jin.

It was the first time Shi Jin saw such a cruel person, and he was so frightened that he closed his eyes tightly.

The next moment, she felt the branch beneath her sway slightly, and the man in red climbed up again.

Shi Jin turned pale with fright, and his breath was filled with the strong smell of blood. But the man's voice was tight and evil, like a devil who did all kinds of evil, "Why don't you open your eyes and take a look?"

Her voice was a little trembling, and the dagger in her hand was also a little unsteady. The man was really too cruel, which shocked her, "Da, hero, I didn't see anything, nor did I."

If you can say a word, please spare me..."

"It's not impossible," the voice was full of interest, and he immediately snatched the dagger from her hand, and then pressed her forward, "If you please me, I will let you go."

Shi Jin closed his eyes, not knowing what a bastard the man looked like, so he only had the courage to discuss it with him, "I have already made a promise to him, and I am no longer innocent. If I agree to the offer, hero, wouldn't I be wronging you?"

When she said this, her buttocks trembled and her whole body trembled uncontrollably.

The man was extremely frivolous, and he lifted her chin with his hands that still smelled of blood, and his words were a bit harsh, "No problem, I am most happy with a little woman like you..."

Before he finished speaking, his lips and tongue came to attack him.

Shi Jin struggled to get away, but he held her tightly, tearing her sides apart, and she almost fell off the branch.

She was frightened and frightened. She wanted to hold on to him to prevent him from falling, but also to prevent him from bullying others too much. Unknowingly, her face was covered with tears.

Qi Mojing originally just wanted to scare her, but unexpectedly, she cried so hard, and the violence in her heart suddenly turned into tenderness.

"Don't cry." He wiped away the tears on her face and his voice became softer.

Just at this moment, Lu Liu came over with people from Tiqisi, "Lord Sidu!"

Qi Mojing seemed to have some regrets and helped Shi Jin sort out his description. Then he cut off a corner of his robe, covered his face, and jumped down lightly.

"We will meet again." His gaze penetrated the layers of locust leaves, seeming to be looking at Shi Jin.

Lu Liu felt strange and couldn't help but glance at the tree. However, the densely packed locust leaves covered most of his body, making it difficult to see clearly.

The red-clothed cavalry dispersed like a tide, and even the corpse was taken away, leaving only the soulless Shi Jin on the tree...
