Quick Wear: She Whose Negative System Is Broken
Chapter 54 Ancient Time Travel: Assassination in the Jungle
"Although I didn't see it clearly, but the shadow that caught my eye was so large that it couldn't possibly be a rabbit."
"Give me the bow." Ji Qiyu stretched his hand back, and the guards behind him immediately handed him a bow and arrow.
She then took out a dagger inlaid with gems from her waist and handed it to Yu Tang.
"It's a big thing, maybe a deer. But bears have been around before, so be careful."
Yu Tang nodded, and several guards on horseback scattered around the two of them to stand guard. Ji Qiyu drew his bow, aimed at the bushes and shot.
The arrow sank into the bushes but there was no sound. Ji Qiyu turned his head and looked at Yu Tang, then relaxed a little.
"Maybe I saw it wrong."
Yu Tang handed over the gorgeous dagger and said, "I'll give it back to you."
As soon as he finished speaking, before Ji Qiyu could respond, a dozen masked men suddenly jumped out from behind the trees around him.
They were wearing linen shorts, their faces covered with linen of the same color, and they held long swords or machetes in their hands.
"Protect the princess."
Several guards drew the long swords at their waists and swung them at the masked assassins who were rushing towards them.
Yu Tang and Ji Qiyu leaned against each other, surrounded by guards. They looked at each other, panic and fear in their eyes.
I have never seen such a scene in my life. Yu Tang was frantically thinking of countermeasures in his mind.
"Can we rush out on horseback?" she whispered in Ji Qiyu's ear.
"I'm afraid not now."
A guard charged on horseback, knocking down a man, and then the assassin behind him chopped off his horse's legs and caused him to fall off.
The guard was indeed the best selected from the Imperial Guards. After falling off his horse, he immediately steadied himself and raised his sword to block the oncoming weapon.
If it were the two of them, it would be hard to say whether they would wake up after falling down.
There were enemies all around, and the four guards were outnumbered two or even three at a time.
No matter how brave they were, they gradually became exhausted and had many wounds on their bodies. If they continued like this, they would all die.
The guards looked at each other, determined to die, and stopped defending. They swung their swords to create a gap for Ji Qiyu and Yu Tang.
"Princess, please leave." They shouted resolutely.
Ji Qiyu did not hesitate. She pulled Yu Tang onto her horse and whipped it hard on the horse's butt. The horse felt the pain and galloped away with the two of them.
Yu Tang was lying on the horse's back, being tossed around dizzily. Everything went black and stars appeared in front of his eyes.
Ji Qiyu was just galloping forward, and when the horse got tired and gradually stopped, she realized that she had lost her way.
There were trees all around him. Ji Qiyu tried to concentrate and listen to the sounds around him, but there was nothing but the chirping of birds and cicadas.
“Should…should, he ran out.”
Yu Tang's voice was suppressed, as if there was a stone stuck in her throat. She took several breaths to say each word. Only then did Ji Qiyu notice that her face was pale and she looked in pain.
"Are you okay?" Ji Qiyu dismounted, pulled Yu Tang off the horse and hugged him.
As soon as I landed, my legs were so weak that I couldn't stand up and my vision went black.
Yu Tang relied on Ji Qiyu's help to stand, suppressing the feeling of nausea and retching.
He replied weakly, "It's nothing, just... a little dizzy and a little nauseous."
Seeing that she was struggling, Ji Qiyu reached out and stroked her back.
"The horse can't run anymore. We can't stay here. I'll help you walk."
The horse collapsed on the ground, breathing heavily, its limbs trembling slightly.
Ji Qiyu threw away the reins and supported Yu Tang as they walked towards the dense bushes hidden ahead.
"You take a rest here first."
The two found a tree to sit against. Yu Tang lay on Ji Qiyu and closed her eyes to rest. When things no longer seemed so dizzy, she reached out and patted the person next to her.
"what happened?"
Yu Tang's voice was hoarse as he whispered, "Let's keep going."
"Okay." Ji Qiyu pulled her up from the ground. Although her hands and feet still had no strength, Yu Tang could at least walk on her own.
The two of them stumbled and supported each other for an unknown amount of time.
I dare not stop even when it gets dark, for there is only a small crescent moon tonight.
The moonlight was dim and the trees were dense. When night fell, it was so dark in the dense forest that you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
The night was much colder than the day, but fortunately my riding clothes were thick and I could still hold out.
The birds and insects have all gone to rest, and the surroundings are quiet with only the occasional rustling sounds of small nocturnal animals.
They groped their way forward cautiously and fearfully, for fear of disturbing the unknown wild animals in the forest.
Yu Tang heard her and Ji Qiyu's breathing getting heavier and heavier. Her throat was dry and she swallowed hard.
After the two of them tripped and fell due to something unknown, Yu Tang grabbed Ji Qiyu who was standing up.
"It's too dark, the road is difficult and unsafe, let's find a place to hide and wait for daybreak."
Her voice was hoarser than during the day, as rough as if sandpaper had been used to rub against a stone, and it was extremely difficult for her to speak.
Ji Qiyu pondered for a while and nodded. Remembering that it was so dark that Yu Tang couldn't see her movements clearly, she said "hmm" softly.
They groped their way to a sturdy tree, snuggled up to each other for warmth, and soon fell into a deep sleep.
The next day, the sky was just getting light, the morning light was dim, and the white dew had not yet appeared.
Yu Tang was awakened by the first bird call, and Ji Qiyu curled up in her arms.
There was morning mist in the woods in the early morning, and there were tiny water droplets on both of their clothes and hair.
His body was frozen and stiff. Yu Tang licked his lips, looked at the large dewdrops condensed on the grass leaves around him, and couldn't help swallowing.
Without the lubrication of saliva, my throat felt a stinging pain.
She woke Ji Qiyu up and pointed at the dewdrops on the grass leaves. Ji Qiyu was still a little confused after just waking up, and looked at Yu Tang, not understanding what she meant.
After stretching his body, Yu Tang carefully picked a large leaf, collected some dewdrops from the leaves next to it, and handed it to Ji Qiyu to feed her.
There is too little dew, but it moisturizes the lips a little.
Ji Qiyu understood what she meant, and the two of them moved their sore legs in different directions to collect dew.
After drinking the cool dew to moisten their throats, they came together again.
The surrounding environment was very unfamiliar, and I could only tell east, south, west and north by the direction of the light.
But I had no idea which direction I should go, and even the way I came was unclear.
Ji Qiyu, exhausted and confused, didn't know what to do. His eyes gradually turned red and he sobbed quietly, unable to control his emotions.
Yu Tang saw that she was crying very forcibly, her nose turning red from holding it in, and he felt a little pity and a little amusement in his heart.
He put his arm around her shoulders and consoled her, "It's okay. We are all time travelers. Time travelers are destined to be here, and usually they can turn danger into safety. We will absolutely be fine."
Hearing her confident and exaggerated tone, Ji Qiyu wiped away his tears and burst into laughter.
"What do you mean by destiny? You sound like the protagonist of a novel. Maybe we are just cannon fodder."
"You are the most honorable Princess Hexi of the Shuo Dynasty. I want to cling to your thigh forever. Can you have a little more confidence?"
"Okay, I understand." Ji Qiyu buried his head in Yu Tang's shoulder, his voice muffled.
