Chapter 146 Attacked on the way
After bidding farewell to Zhen Yu, Chen Ruotong stood there quietly alone, her eyes confused and deep, as if she was immersed in endless thoughts.
She knows that it is not easy to keep her secrets, and she must always be vigilant and cautious. After all, a momentary impulse may bring unexpected consequences, as the saying goes, "impulse is the devil."
After careful consideration, Chen Ruotong secretly made up her mind: if she had the opportunity to move items in the warehouse again in the future, she would carefully select those valuable treasures and put them into her pocket, and she would never act rashly like before and take away everything at once.
In this way, one can satisfy one's own petty coffers while minimizing the risk of being discovered.
Time flies, and it is already April. With the successful completion of spring sowing, Chen Ruotong finally has some free time.
However, fate always seems to like playing tricks on people. At this quiet evening, when she was riding in a carriage slowly on her way back to the city, a sudden "whoosh" sound broke the original peace. The sound was like a ghost, sharp and piercing, piercing people's hearts.
Chen Ruotong was a little sleepy and was about to take a nap in the shaking carriage, but this very familiar sound instantly made her sleepy and she had an ominous premonition in her heart.
"Oh no! Is that the sound of an arrow? Is someone trying to assassinate me?" She held on to the edge of the car window tightly, trying to observe the situation outside through the gap in the curtain, but due to the dim light and obstructed vision, she could not see clearly what was happening.
At this moment, countless arrows shot from all directions! Chen Ruotong reacted quickly, and her figure flashed and disappeared into space in an instant.
However, the horse was frightened by the sudden attack and panicked, neighing and running towards the fork in the road.
At the same time, Qi Size seemed to have suffered a serious injury and could not control the direction of the carriage. He shouted in fear: "Sir, please be careful, please sit tight...ah..."
It turned out that Qi Si's thigh was hit by two sharp arrows. The severe pain almost made him faint, but he gritted his teeth, endured the pain, held the reins tightly with both hands, and tried his best to pull the reins to force the carriage to stop.
Unfortunately, the horse was also seriously injured, with five or six arrows stuck in its body. In unbearable pain, it became extremely crazy, running around recklessly, gradually galloping towards the edge of the cliff.
Even though Qi Si tried his best, he was still unable to compete with the mad horse.
By the time he realized there was a bottomless abyss ahead, it was already too late.
His face was pale, and he screamed in terror: "Master, it's not good! There is a cliff ahead, and we are about to fall into the bottomless abyss..."
Before he finished his words, there was a loud bang, and the carriage suddenly soared into the air like a soaring dragon, and then fell straight into a bottomless cliff.
At this moment, Chen Ruotong just emerged from the hidden space. In an instant, a strong sense of weightlessness swept over her, as if to swallow her whole.
If it really fell down like this, it would surely end up in a miserable state with its body shattered to pieces and no remains left. At the critical moment, Chen Ruotong had an idea and put the entire carriage into the space.
Chen Ruotong's heart seemed to burst out of her throat, beating rapidly. She cursed loudly like a shrew: "Fuck him! Who is this heartless, damned bastard who dares to shoot an arrow and hurt someone?"
She was so angry that she couldn't help but curse the other person's ancestors for generations.
At this moment, she was sitting on the floor of the space, sulking alone.
After a long scolding, she felt a little relieved, but her eyes fell on the injured horse involuntarily. It seemed that the horse could not hold on any longer.
Looking at Qi Si on the side, he saw that his legs were seriously injured. Two sharp arrows pierced his thighs deeply. A lot of blood oozed out and then solidified.
Fortunately, the two arrows did not injure the bones.
Chen Ruotong calmed herself down, picked up a pair of sharp scissors, and carefully cut off the arrow.
Then, she gritted her teeth, gripped the arrow shaft tightly with both hands, and exerted sudden force, pulling the two arrows out of Qi Si's legs.
What’s amazing is that because of this special space, even after the arrow was pulled out, not a drop of blood flowed from the wound.
Afterwards, Chen Ruotong quickly took out a bottle of disinfectant and carefully sprayed it on the wound to prevent infection. Then, she gently applied a layer of special wound ointment and skillfully bandaged the wound with clean gauze and bandages.
After completing this series of movements, Chen Ruotong sat down on the floor exhausted and let out a long sigh of relief.
Now, she could only wait to leave this space and go to a nearby clinic for further treatment.
During this period, Qi Si is in a static state and his wounds will not change at all, so he is safe for the time being.
Chen Ruotong was hanging in the air at the moment, thinking about the next steps in her mind: first, she needed to get out of the space and experience a thrilling free fall; when she was close to the ground, she needed to accurately grasp the opportunity and re-enter the space. After repeating this cycle several times, she could ensure that she could reach the bottom of the cliff safely.
Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and tried to calm her chaotic mind. After all, hesitation would not help, and she couldn't just stand there in the air and do nothing!
Night had already fallen, and the city gates must have been closed long ago. If he could not return to the city, he would have to climb up no matter what, and return to the village to report his safety to his family.
Chen Ruotong gritted her teeth, stomped her feet, made up her mind, and jumped... In a flash, she flew through the space as fast as a bird. After several twists and turns, she finally succeeded in achieving a smooth landing!
However, when his feet landed firmly at the bottom of the cliff, the surrounding environment became increasingly dark and deep, which was creepy.
Gusts of cold wind whistled past, mixed with the sharp howls of wild beasts from time to time. The terrifying atmosphere made Chen Ruotong terrified, and she hurriedly dived into the space to seek shelter.
At this moment, it is already late and going out is obviously not a wise move. It is better to wait until tomorrow morning to find a way out.
Chen Ruotong lay quietly on the big bed in the living area, constantly thinking about who sent the killer to murder her. After thinking about it, it was none other than those two people - Tian and Liang Zhilan.
