Sakurai's thin body trembled, and blood gurgled under him.
Qin Yining's pupils tightened, her voice trembling, and she said in panic, "Sakurai, Sakurai..."
The remaining four assassins saw that Qin Yining was right in front of him, and saw that the crippled man with a broken arm had been stabbed to the core, and there was no more threat, so they hurriedly seized the opportunity and rushed up.
Sakurai pushed Qin Yining away, with a steel knife stuck in his abdomen and the four joined together.
It's just that his vision has long been blurred, relying on instinctive reactions.
He is a man who keeps his promises. Since he recognizes this woman as the master, he can't watch her lose his life before his life ends. For her kindness to him, for her sincere gratitude to him, for her not betraying him...
It's a pity that he hasn't had time to ask her name or stay by her side to be her bodyguard.
Seeing victory in sight, the four assassins attacked with all their strength.
Sakurai was exhausted and could no longer resist.
The tip of the assassin's knife plunged into his chest, and the sharp blade flashed under the moonlight, followed by a splash of blood.
"Sakurai!" Qin Yining rushed to Sakurai's side, holding his bloody wound with both hands, bursting into tears, "I'm sorry for you, I'm the one who got you involved..."
Sakurai lay on the cold ground, and finally let go of the bamboo knife he cherished the most. He grabbed Qin Yining's wrist and said with difficulty, "Mud, name."
"Yining, my name is Qin..."
The tension on the wrist loosened.
"My name is Qin Yining. Thank you for protecting me. I'm sorry for you."
The assassin's steel knife brought a gust of cool wind and slashed in the face. Qin Yining raised her tearful eyes, suddenly feeling tired and hopeless.
She can't escape.
Just as she closed her eyes and waited to die, she only heard the sound of "clang!" metal crashing, and after a few "swish swish", the four assassins fell down screaming.
Looking down, the steel knife just now was knocked down by a feather arrow, and an arrow pierced through each of the four assassins' thighs, injuring a large blood vessel, and blood spurted out as if being squeezed.
"Sister Yi!" Pang Xiao was carrying a long bow on his back, as nimble as a cheetah running fast, and in the blink of an eye, he came to him.
It was only when he arrived in front of him and looked at Qin Yining who was sitting in a pool of blood covered in blood, Pang Xiao suddenly stopped and couldn't get close.
"My lord, what to do with the assassins?" Tang Xiu took Jinghuwei to take down the assassins, and at the same time unloaded their jaws.
Running out of breath, Xu Weizhi saw that Pang Xiao and Qin Yining looked wrong, and hurriedly said, "Take them down for interrogation first, don't let people die!"
"Yes." Tang Xiu responded immediately and took the assassin down.
Xu Weizhi and Xie Yue both gasped and stood aside, looking at the sitting princess and the standing prince, not knowing what to do for a while.
Pang Xiao looked down at Qin Yining's blood-stained hands on Sakurai's chest, rolled his Adam's apple, and said slowly, "Sister Yi, you..."
Pang Xiao stopped abruptly before he finished his words.
Because he saw her sweetheart sobbing and crying, his shoulders shrugged, and then the suppressed cry turned into a howl.
Pang Xiao only felt that all his internal organs were smashed to pieces!
His sister Yi was a woman who was soft on the outside and tough on the inside. He had never seen her cry like this before, she was aggrieved like a child.
Pang Xiao's nose was sore when she cried, and he felt so distressed that he squatted down and hugged Qin Yining tightly, hugging her tightly.
"It's my fault. I'm late. Stop crying. My sister Yi, stop crying."
Qin Yining shook his head and grabbed Pang Xiao's shoulder, "I killed him! If it wasn't for me, he wouldn't die!"
"It's not your fault, I can't blame you, it's clearly the assassin's fault, and I will definitely avenge him. Be good, don't cry, okay?" Pang Xiao comforted her softly and kissed her eyelids, feeling like she was going crazy. , I wish I could immediately kill the culprit alive!
Qin Yining was buried in Pang Xiao's arms and cried for a while, but Pang Xiao kept half-kneeling on the spot and hugging her tightly and coaxing her.
Seeing this, Xu Weizhi and Xie Yue quietly retreated to arrange the rest.
Qin Yining's eyes darkened as he cried, and his fingers accidentally touched Pang Xiao's abdomen, only to feel that the tentacles were warm and sticky, and immediately startled, "What's wrong with you! You're injured!"
"It's alright, I've got a skin injury. I did it on purpose. I'll have to do a full set for the show. Otherwise, I still can't get rid of those foolish people." Pang Xiao lifted up his torn robe and showed Qin Yining, "Look, the wound isn't big. It's not too deep, it's just that I opened my mouth in a hurry just now, and I don't feel any pain at all, I'll just rub some medicine later."
A three-inch-long blood hole on his abdomen was bleeding, and it was impossible to tell the depth of the wound just by looking at it.
Qin Yining had not yet broken free from the shadow of fear of Sakurai's death, and when he saw Pang Xiao bleeding so much, he was anxious and distressed for a while, grabbing his sleeve, his lips were trembling and speechless.
"Sister Yi, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me!"
Seeing that Qin Yining's face was getting worse and worse, Pang Xiao picked him up in a panic, and quickly ran to the nearest room.
When Xie Yue, Xu Weizhi and others saw that the prince was holding the princess in a panic, they couldn't help but follow up worriedly. Xie Yue turned his head and ordered someone to invite Langzhong.
Qin Yining was laid flat on the heated kang by the window. She was still holding on to Pang Xiao's sleeve, but she felt that her chest was tight, her eyes were black, and her heart palpitated.
Pang Xiao squatted beside her, stroking her chest and smoothing her breath, "Sister Yi, take a deep breath, calm down, it's alright, don't you think I'm fine now? I'm very strong, a little skin trauma is nothing. Yes, just bandage it later. Take it easy, don't be anxious, don't be nervous."
Qin Yining nodded and closed his eyes, tears welling up again.
Pang Xiao felt distressed and got up and twisted the handkerchief to wipe off the blood on her face and hands. After changing three pots of hot water, she barely wiped it off.
"Jiyun and Jingzhe were both injured a little bit. I asked them to take them to a large tent outside the city. I'm thick hands and feet. It's inappropriate to serve you. You have to tell me."
Qin Yining shook his head, finally slowed down a bit, and said in a hoarse voice, "Go and bandage, I'm fine."
Pang Xiao sat sideways beside her, his big hands ran along her long hair, and he felt a lot of blood condensed on the hair, which showed how much danger she had experienced.
Now is not the time to ask questions.
Pang Xiao reassured her: "I'm really fine, I have used the medicine for golden sore before I came here." To distract Qin Yining's attention, Pang Xiao said again, "I was thinking about the letter you sent me when I saw it. , how can I use this method instead of pen and paper. Now I understand it completely. "
Qin Yining looked at him inquiringly.
"Mr. Xie and Mr. Xu also figured out a way to make peace with you, so I deliberately got hurt a little in the dispute. Those people surrounded the yamen mainly because they wanted me to write a letter of guarantee, and I would not use them. The people of the county have died. But they hurt me, and they knew that they were going to make a big mess, and I'm afraid that anyone who got involved would be punished. So it was useless for me to persuade them, and the people all dispersed in a hurry.
"We took the opportunity to take people away from the yamen. Because you informed me about Tao Hanshan's emergency measures in your letter, you wanted to immediately notify Tao Hanshan to change his strategy. Who knew that my people didn't contact Tao Hanshan, and the villa said it was all empty. I When I felt something was wrong, I hurried over."
Pang Xiao's words could not go on.
If it wasn't for his timely arrival, I'm afraid he would only see a corpse when he arrived.
Qin Yining said slowly, "Sakurai saved me."
"Ji Yun and Jing Zhe said that he was the poor man you rescued in Danfu County earlier."
"Yes. I didn't know he had such martial arts skills. He wanted to come here to repay my kindness. He is a very kind person."
Qin Yining told Pang Xiao about the two-day experience and the entanglement between Wang Dashan and Sakurai.
"He saw that I was besieged and wanted to save me, so he killed a lot of people. He didn't talk about his murder, but only about his motives. He was well-intentioned. What's more, he had countless opportunities to leave along the way, but he kept going all the way. I didn't leave. After I came to this villa to meet Mr. Tao, he thought that the atmosphere was different. He was so badly injured, but he insisted on vigil. Without him, I would not be able to be surrounded by twenty assassins. Live."
Qin Yining sat up, Pang Xiao immediately put his arms around her shoulders, and put a big pillow behind her to make her lean against her more comfortably.
"Although he is a Japanese, he is a good man. No matter what he has done before, for a person like me who only invited him to eat a few cakes, his repayment has really been done with benevolence and righteousness."
Qin Yining lowered her eyes, and another teardrop hung on her eyelashes.
Pang Xiao was a little bit tasteful. He knew how shocking it would be to watch a person give his life for himself after suffering together. That Sakurai would probably stay in Qin Yining's heart for the rest of his life.
But apart from these emotions, Pang Xiao was even more grateful to Sakurai.
If he hadn't tried his best, how could his sister Yi be unscathed
Although he was a Japanese, in Pang Xiao's heart, he was a real bloody man, worthy of admiration. Besides, he wanted to repay the life-saving grace. Now that he was gone, he didn't know how to repay.
"My lord."
At this moment, Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi invited their generals in.
When Pang Xiao saw Lang Zhong walked in quickly, he hurriedly got up and gave way.
After the Langzhong showed Qin Yining, he trembled and said: "The princess's body is not in serious trouble, it's because she is too tired and emotionally overjoyed and sad. The old man prescribed two soothing prescriptions, and after the princess used it, she could rest for two days. ."
Pang Xiao breathed a sigh of relief, nodded and said, "It's time to work."
"Don't dare, don't dare."
Xie Yue and Xu Weizhi smiled and asked Langzhong to go to the side to write the recipe.
Qin Yining said, "Your Highness is also injured, please ask the doctor to show him."
Pang Xiao glanced at Qin Yining dotingly, and immediately cooperated to check the wound, and then changed the dressing and dressing again.
After Lang Zhong left, Tang Xiu's interrogation also came to a conclusion.
"Your Highness, those four were tough guys. At first, they were as strict as clam shells with their mouths closed, but after the torture, Mr. Xie provoked them a few more words, and they all recruited. They listened to Tao Hanshan's wishes and came here. They don't know much about it."
