1446 Chapter 1446-fight....
Gu Xin hid on the roof beam of the thatched cottage and even her breathing became lighter.
She was afraid. Afraid that she would be caught and that the sand God Prince would have ill intentions towards her. If she was caught again, she would definitely be strictly guarded and tortured.
For some reason, many images flashed through Gu Xin’s mind. When she was ten years old, she was taken away and sold. She resisted but to no avail. She was beaten, tamed and finally became a yes-man.
Gu Xin didn’t know why these strange images would appear in her mind at such a tense moment.
A question came from outside, but ayelin didn’t answer.
Gu Xin focused her mind and brushed away all the strange images in her mind. She could only hear the people outside laughing at ayelin.
“I forgot that he’s deaf!”
“You’re really trash! You can’t even compare to a strand of hair on our first Prince’s head!”
his mother was a good-for-nothing that was captured from the great Zhou Dynasty. It’s not strange that she gave birth to a good-for-nothing like him!
“The first Prince made him stay for fun!”
“Let’s go, what’s the point of talking to a cripple! We’ll search the forest, that woman can’t have gone far!”
Outside, ayelin did not say a word. Gu Xin heard footsteps and knew that someone had entered the house. However, they only looked around for a while before leaving.
At this moment, Gu Xin’s heart was in her mouth.
After half an hour, there was no more movement outside. Gu Xin still did not dare to come down from the beam.
“Third miss Gu, they’ve left this forest,” he called out to her. You can come down!”
Gu Xin jumped down.
“Thank you!” She cupped her fists at ayelin.
No. ayelin shook his head. everyone loves beauty. There’s no reason not to help such a beauty.”
Gu Xin furrowed her brows. But thinking that he had indeed helped her, she did not scold him.
“Third miss Gu,” said ayelin,”I don’t know which direction we should go to the great Zhou. You’ve seen it for yourself, everyone says I’m trash. However, I know that if we walk to the other side of the forest, there will be herdsmen. You can ask them. They might have gone to kun city to sell things.”
Gu Xin’s eyes lit up as she looked at ayelin, ” alright, thank you. If there’s a chance in the future, you can go to kun city. I’ll give you a reward.
“Alright, I’ll definitely get this reward,” ayelin said with a smile. However, third miss Gu still had to wait a day. The first Prince’s men have gone in all directions to look for you. It’ll be safer to go tomorrow morning after tonight.”
After a pause, ayelin continued, ” don’t worry, third miss Gu. I won’t be staying here tonight. This thatched cottage is for third miss Gu’s use. There’s a well outside with water in it. As for food, there are wild fruits, pheasants, and rabbits in this mountain. I believe that third young lady Gu can settle it herself! Third young lady Gu must not have rested since she escaped last night, so she can rest now.”
Gu Xin cupped her fists once again, thank you.
Ayelin took another look at Gu Xin before leaving the thatched cottage.
Gu Xin didn’t dare to fall asleep immediately. She placed the blanket on the bed, crossed her legs, and closed her eyes to meditate.
……
Gu Xin had disappeared for six days. Lu Zheng requested for an order and set off with his Army. The Army had arrived at the border of the sand God.
Peng ze and Peng Wulang led the troops to the border of the Yun nation and met up with Peng sanlang.
This was the emperor’s intention. If they wanted to fight, they would fight at the same time. Five thousand of the Peng family’s Army would be left in kun city. They would speed up the production. The rest of the soldiers would set off.
On the 19th of November, the bugle horn sounded in the Yun nation and the divine sand nation. The Zhou Army was attacking!
