Chapter 214 Goodbye, White Tiger
By the time Luo'er's men arrived, the white tiger had been forced to the edge of a thousand-foot-high cliff.
The wolves fought bloody battles, with most of them killed or wounded, and corpses scattered all over the ground. The lackey and the she-wolf stood in front of the white tiger to protect her from the sharp arrows.
Luo Yu shouted at Ye Yucheng, "Didn't you promise me that you would only bring Baihu back to the capital? Why did you want to kill her?"
A guard said, "Miss Bai, it's not that we have to shoot it. The white tiger refused to surrender, and the wolves surrounded us, so we had to resist the slaughter."
After a moment, Ye Yucheng said: "White Tiger is more spiritual than imagined. Miss Bai, if you take her back, I'm afraid her end will not be very good. Instead of living a life worse than death, it is better... I think White Tiger would rather not live that kind of life."
Luo Yu's voice was unusually calm: "Envoy Ye, what you said is so nice!"
"Sister, they want to force me to die." Xia Liang roared.
Qin Bingrui walked over, stroked her head, and whispered in her ear: "Don't be afraid, remember to come to us again when the time comes, Xia Liang, Sister Luo Yu and I will not give up on you. Sister Luo Yu has restarted several times for you."
Baihu was stunned for a moment, then nodded obediently and gave some instructions to the lackey. The lackey refused to give in and was dragged out by Qin Bingrui. The female wolf naturally followed the lackey and left.
Ye Yucheng raised his hand and asked everyone to shoot arrows at the same time.
Yan Xuan was about to stand up and say something when Mr. Lin asked someone to cover his mouth.
Luo Yu's mouth twitched and he shouted, "Bai Hu, goodbye!"
"Sister, thank you."
After Baihu finished speaking, he took a few steps back and jumped.
The lackeys and the she-wolf howled wildly, their heart-wrenching voices piercing the vast sky...
Luo Yu felt a tear flowing down involuntarily from the corner of her eye. She should be happy.
Having died three times, she was particularly familiar with this feeling of powerlessness. Therefore, she must be happy now that she no longer had to compromise, no longer had to feel helpless about not getting what she wanted, and no longer had to live in the emptiness of wanting death.
No matter what dynasty it is, only a strong force can protect those you want to protect...
Zhu Jinyou stood beside her and could clearly see the tears streaming down her face. It was just a single tear, which she quickly wiped away...
Baihu chose to jump off a cliff to end his life, which shocked everyone. At the same time, everyone put down their weapons and looked up at the vast sky.
The stars are twinkling and the valley is silent. Only the sound of the wind blowing through the valley can be heard, echoing layer after layer of sound of wind and waves. The night is getting deeper and deeper.
When everyone was about to retreat, the lackey lay in the valley barking, the she-wolf whining along with him. The little monkey Wutian jumped up and down, still unable to believe that the white tiger had really jumped into the valley.
Yan Xuanren also looked foolish, sitting in the valley and saying that he wanted to go back at daybreak, so Qin Bingrui, Luo Yu and He Yuan sat down with him.
Old Master Lin was old and couldn't accompany the young people. He just muttered along the way: "I didn't expect this white tiger to have such great charm. Not only dogs and wolves would risk their lives for it, but even my brat, ah!"
Ye Yucheng asked everyone else to follow him. Even if the White Tiger jumped off the cliff and was shattered to pieces, they had to find its body and bring it back to the imperial city.
Old Master Lin couldn't help but complain: "City Envoy Ye, you're too rigid and inhumane. White Tiger's leap made an old man like me want to cry, and all you want is to collect the body and bring it back to the Imperial City."
Then he turned around to talk to Zhu Jinyou about his feelings, but he didn't expect that the man had disappeared.
"Master, why are you retreating back to the valley again?"
Zhu Jinyou didn't say anything, but he felt a tightness in his chest. It wasn't because of the White Tiger Leaping Over the Valley, but because he felt that this place and the incident that had just happened were familiar...
It seemed that he was very afraid that someone would jump down as well, so he stood next to her, hoping to catch her when the opportunity arose.
But she was completely indifferent, so was his feeling wrong?
Until he returned to the valley, he found Miss Luo Yu and Miss Qin standing on the edge of the cliff, silent.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
Song Si clearly felt that the master's uneasy aura had mostly faded away. Could it be that he was worried about Miss Qin and Miss Bai?
"Sister, the night is too cold, let's go back first."
Luo Yu nodded, turned around and saw Zhu Jinyou standing not far away, with the shadows of trees swaying behind him. Why hadn't he left yet?
Qin Bingrui walked over and said shamelessly: "I didn't expect that His Royal Highness Prince Ning is so concerned about my sister. Don't worry, she is safe with me here."
Prince Ning: ...
Seeing Miss Luo and the others about to leave, Yan Xuan raised his head and asked, "Miss Bai, you won't blame me for not helping Bai Hu, right?"
When Luo Yu saw his face, he was shocked. His tears and snot were mixed together and he was crying loudly.
Luo Yu thought that if Xia Liang really died like this, she would definitely be more heartbroken than any of them.
The despair of her previous life had made her fear that she would not be able to save Xia Liang even if she repeated it endlessly. At that time, she only thought that it would be better for her to really die and leave this hellish place!
"Yan Xuan, I think if Baihu is still alive, she will feel the sincerity between you and He Yuan, and she probably won't blame you."
Qin Bingrui came over and patted him on the shoulder: "A real man can bend and stretch. Eighteen years later, Baihu will be a brave man again. We will meet again if we are lucky."
I don’t think it will take even 18 years.
"Well, Miss Qin, I will definitely make myself stronger so that I can protect the people I want to protect."
Luo Yu gave a bitter smile: "It doesn't matter how powerful you are, it won't help if the emperor wants someone's life."
When Zhu Jinyou heard this, he wondered why it sounded so familiar.
She had clearly never told anyone about this, and it was also clear that this was the first time he heard her say it.
But I felt like I was being ridiculed by her.
"Miss Bai, what you mean is, how can we protect the people we cherish most?"
"Of course, stay away from anyone and anything that has anything to do with imperial power and proceed with caution."
Luo Yu raised her head, smiled, and looked at Zhu Jinyou at the same time. Her smile was very meaningful.
Zhu Jinyou turned around and walked down the mountain without looking back.
"Master, you didn't say anything to comfort Miss Bai and the others. They must be feeling bad after Bai Hu died."
"Is Baihu her family? Do I need to go and comfort them in person to mourn their loss?"
"I feel like White Tiger is as important as their family."
Song Si also couldn't understand why the prince was suddenly unhappy.
Forget it, the most important thing is that he follows me. Who knows if there will be other wild animals in this forest.
When it was completely light, the group came down the mountain and slowly returned to Jiangzhou City.
Life seems to have returned to its normal track, but it also seems that after a series of restarts, life seems to be missing something.
A day later, Bai Lingyi and Mei Zhengyan were sent to the best Dongshan Academy in Jiangzhou City. Because of Prince Ning's background, the principal and teachers of the academy did not make it difficult for them to study there.
Old Master Lin took Luo Yu's blueprints and immersed himself in the development of weapons, rarely showing up again.
The people from the Imperial City Bureau searched for Baihu's body in the valley day and night. The rapids in the valley were turbulent, and Baihu's body must have been washed far away by the flood.
Qin Bingrui had been dreaming for two days. The place where the girl in the dream was was very unfamiliar, and the girl had never left the small mountain village. He had no idea where the place was exactly.
As a result, for several days, he dreamed over and over again, but he only dreamed of the day when Xia Liang came back to life and woke up.
After talking to Luo Yu's sister, Luo Yu asked him: "Is it because you haven't seen Xia Liang after her resurrection that you can't predict what will happen to her later?"
Qin Bingrui suddenly understood: "That's right. I can only dream about the first scene. It was the same when I dreamed about my sister before. I only knew that my sister might be in the palace, but I didn't know what happened to you. I dreamed about the white tiger because I saw it on the road, so I foresaw what would happen to it later. And my sister was with the white tiger, so I knew about her situation."
Thinking about it this way, his predictive dreams have made some progress. At least he can dream about what happened on the day Xia Liang traveled through time and space with someone else. Otherwise, he really wouldn't have known that the girl was Xia Liang.
Luo Yu was at a loss for words: "In this case, we can't take the initiative to look for Xia Liang. Who knows where she has gone?"
"Based on the images in my memory, it should be the topographical features of the south, and it should be a remote mountain village. However, the south is so vast, with so many mountain ranges, we can only wait for Xia Liang to come to us in Jiangzhou City."
"Xia Liang is so smart, she will definitely find us."
"Ah."
