Chapter 53 Afraid of Teammates like Pigs

The woman's sixth sense had always been very accurate. After Su Mianyue tied the horse up, she was a little restless. Even biwu burned the hot water for her to drink a little, but she didn't notice the temperature of the porcelain bowl. She threw the bowl away subconsciously and extinguished the bonfire.

"Miss, what's wrong with you?" Biwu quickly took out the scalding medicine and wiped Su Mianyue's fingers. When he saw that his fingers were burning red, tears were rolling in his eyes.

"Biwu, we can't stay here tonight. Let's go." Su Mianyue pulled Biwu to his feet and frowned, "No matter what happens later, don't panic. Just find a way to escape. Even if I'm in danger, don't come back and save me. One of us has to report, okay?"

"Miss, is someone trying to kill us?" Biwu's face was pale with fear.

Su Mianyue shook his head and said, "I just have a hunch that something bad will happen. Remember what I said, or you and I will die."

Biwu had never seen Su Mianyue look so grave before. She had to nod, but her heart was filled with fear. Her death was not worth cherishing, but the master could not be hurt.

The master and servant turned on their horses and immediately ran forward from the edge of the forest, startling the birds.

On the willow top of the moon, the master and servant had already driven half the way, but they were shocked by the scene in front of them.

They saw a group of men in black riding tall horses blocking the road, holding bright knives in their hands, and looking even colder in the moonlight.

"Young master, what should we do?" Biwu held the reins tightly. There were eight big men in front of them. It was impossible for them to rush over. They were afraid that they would not be able to escape by themselves.

"Don't panic." Su Mianyue took a deep breath and comforted Biwu. Holding the whip in one hand and the reins in the other, he shouted, "Heroes, dare you ask who it is? If we are here to carry out our mission, our master and servant will only pass by. Please do us a favor. If you want money, I will give it to you with both hands and never hide it."

"Su Mianyue?" One of the men in black asked coldly.

Su Mianyue's heart tightened and he was just about to deny it when he heard biwu exclaim, "Miss, someone is trying to kill you. Go away, my servant is cut off!"

Biwu rode on as if he were dead, trying to fend off the men in black for Su Mianyue. Looking at Su Mianyue, he held his forehead straight. He was not afraid of god-like opponents, but of teammates like pigs.

"Biwu, have you forgotten my orders?" Su Mianyue shouted, and the frightened mount neighed and moved.

Su Mianyue choked her, and Biwu quickly turned her horse around. Unfortunately, her riding skills were ordinary, and the horse was running wildly. How could she be driven by her?

The horse's front hooves were raised and its nose was ringing. It had thrown biwu off the horse's back and ran away.

Biwu, who had been thrown to the ground, stood up reluctantly and spread his arms to block the men in black. He shouted, "Miss, go, go!"

Seeing that biwu was so loyal, Su Mianyue could not blame her for not being calm enough. He sighed and confronted the man in black. "Gentlemen, since you know who I am, you are still standing in the way. He probably didn't care about the aftermath. Our masters and servants will never be your opponents. Since we cannot escape today, we can only do what you want."

When he rode towards Biwu, Su Mianyue did not show any anxiety at all. He got off the horse and helped biwu up. When Biwu was about to lose his mind, he pinched the thin meat on her waist and told her to shut up.

Biwu was in so much pain that he came over in an instant. Regardless of how badly he fell, he quickly got on his horse and reached out to pull Su Mianyue up. The master and servant moved together and ran towards the forest.

The men in black were not in a hurry, as if they had deliberately given master and servant Su Mianyue a chance to escape. After they had walked more than ten meters, they chased after them, but they were not in a hurry, giving them a glimmer of hope.

"Miss, what should we do? Those people seem to be chasing after us. Can't we run away?"

"Miss, you can leave on your horse alone. Let's ride together. They will catch up soon. Miss will be in danger."

"No, even if you fight for your life, you can't let miss be in danger. Miss, let me go."

"Shut up!" Su Mianyue said in a low voice. Biwu was so noisy that she had a headache.

If those men in black behind really wanted to kill them, how could they run so far?

Su Mianyue was very calm, guessing what the other party's purpose was, and who sent it, but while running, a lot of branches were scratched on his cheek, and the pain Su Mianyue could not concentrate on these things.

"Miss, in front..."

"Shut up!" Su Mianyue let out another low cry. This time, Biwu did not behave, but shouted, "There's a cliff ahead. It's a cliff!"

Su Mianyue sat in the back, his vision was not good. When he heard Biwu's cry, he looked up and was at least half scared out of his wits.

There was less than a hundred meters away. Su Mianyue didn't know how high the cliff was. He could see another peak a hundred feet away. Su Mianyue knew that it was too late to rein in the cliff.

"Biwu, hold your head." At the same time that Su Mianyue ordered Biwu, he pulled off the hairpin and stabbed it into the horse's thigh.

The horse was in pain and ran frantically forward. Su Mianyue held Biwu in his arms and lay on the back of the horse with him. He held the reins tightly with both hands and shouted in his heart, "Old lady, if I die here today, I will go to the palace of hell to sue you!"

The horses neighed and the screams of the master and servant resounded throughout the valley, causing all the animals and birds to run for their lives.

The men in black who had chased after the edge of the cliff frowned at the bottom of the cliff, and the leader frowned even more. "Old eight, report to the young master. There's a change in plan. The others follow me to the bottom of the cliff to find someone."

The man known as the eighth immediately turned around and left, leaving behind seven men in black who were quickly searching for a way down the cliff.

Not to mention how these people were, Su Mianyue and Biwu had just experienced a life-and-death situation. Although the master and servant were not killed by the fall, they had many scratches on their bodies. Biwu had sprained his foot and it was hard to walk.

"Miss, it's almost dawn. We can definitely walk out alive, right?" Holding each other's hands with Su Mianyue, Biwu asked in a low voice, afraid that his voice would attract wild animals, but if he did not speak, he felt uneasy.

"There are fewer trees in front of us. Let's go there and rest." Su Mianyue also had severe pain all over his body, but this pain was nothing compared to life and death.

"Let's go quickly. What if we meet a beast?" Biwu didn't want to rest. He would rather walk with his broken leg.

"It's so dark that we can't see the road clearly. Let's take a break and keep some strength. Maybe we'll meet a hunter or something, and we'll be saved." Su Mianyue comforted Biwu feebly, but in his heart he cursed himself.

How mean she must be. That Mu Tinng only scolded her and punished her. Even if she died in Imperial Mausoleum, Su Mianyue was still a widow. It would be easier to find another chance to leave the palace.

Not knowing what Su Mianyue was thinking, Biwu was so thirsty that she did not refute it, and she really did not have the strength to walk anymore.

Biwu sat down against a big tree. Su Mianyue got up to pick up the firewood and stacked it in a few places. Then he sprinkled some powder around him to drive away snakes, insects, rats and ants. He helped Biwu to sit in the middle and lit the fire one by one. Only then did he return to Biwu and sit down on the ground, tired and wearing coarse clothes.

"It's all because Biwu is useless, and miss is tired." Biwu spoke in a tearful voice, holding the dagger that Su Mianyue had handed her.

"If you have the strength to cry, it means that the injury is not serious. Take a quick rest. It will be dawn before you have the strength to go." Su Mianyue was so tired that his eyelids were fighting and his voice was weak.

"Miss, let's eat some dry food." Although Biwu was not able to move, he gritted his teeth and spread her cloak on the ground, then covered her with Su Mianyue's, and took out the rations from the bundle.

Because the burden was always carried by Biwu, when the master and servant fell off the cliff, Su Mianyue was also holding Biwu tightly, so the burden was not lost, or else their master and servant would really be sad.

"If you sleep, you won't be hungry. You can eat dry food tomorrow morning." Su Mianyue's stomach growled, but his back was facing Biwu and he urged Biwu to rest.

"No, miss, just rest. Biwu is still energetic. If there is a beast coming, Biwu can lead miss." Biwu held the dagger in both hands and kept looking around.

After hearing what biwu said, Su Mianyue realized that it was time for someone to stay up in the wild, but it was absolutely impossible for him to stay up alone. He said, "Biwu, you didn't listen to me before. In the end, we are in this situation. Now, you have to listen to me, or none of us can get out of this mountain, understand?"

"But miss hasn't said what she wants her servant to listen to." Biwu blinked and looked at Su Mianyue in confusion.

With a tap on his head, Su Mianyue sadly realized that he was so sleepy that he couldn't even speak incoherently. He pointed to a pile of leaves around them and said, "If you find that a group of animals are trying to attack us, light the leaves. Don't shout, and don't rush out. Do you understand? Of course, you have to wake me up, but you have to cover my mouth and call me, or I will definitely yell rude."

Biwu blinked his eyes again and looked at Su Mianyue like an idiot. He pouted and did not speak. He nodded earnestly.

Su Mianyue lay on the ground, not caring how uncomfortable it was, not to mention whether it was damp or not. He muttered, "Baby Biwu, call me in half an hour. We'll take turns keeping vigil. Otherwise, you'll be sleepy later. Let's wait for the beast to make a midnight snack."

Whether it was Biwu's ravenous mouth or Su Mianyue's prophecy, before half an hour had passed, Biwu was so frightened by the pair of green eyes that his body trembled, but he endured the fear of taking two burning branches in the nearest place and throwing them on two leaves. He immediately turned around and called for Su Mianyue.

Biwu forcefully followed Su Mianyue's nose and mouth and shouted in a trembling voice, "Miss, wake up. There are wolves. There are wolves."

Su Mianyue was so suffocated that he could hardly breathe. Just as he was about to get angry, he heard a pack of wolves. He was so scared that he sat up and didn't have time to blame biwu for almost suffocating her. He was already so scared by the pack of wolves surrounding them that he couldn't speak.

Although there were only five or six wolves, the two weak women, su mianyue and Biwu, were no match for them at all, and they didn't even have weapons, and each of them couldn't even defend themselves with a dagger.

Su Mianyue swallowed two mouthfuls of saliva and cursed in a low voice, "What kind of luck did I have? Didn't I say there are almost no wild animals in this area? What the hell is this?"

"Miss, what should we do? We are both so thin that we are not enough for these wolves to eat." Biwu grabbed the dagger and gestured to the left and the right. She was so anxious that she burst into tears.

Although Su Mianyue was calmer than biwu, he was not much better. He kept thinking about whether there was a way to escape.

But wolves are very tolerant predators. Even if the two of them don't move, they won't be able to consume the wolves. And when the bonfire is burned out, the wolves won't be afraid anymore.
