Mu Sheng returned to the pharmacy and quietly waited for the next day to come. He was thinking about how he could save the Holy Maiden. After a while, the door opened gently and Wei Ming returned.
"How is it, is there any new news?" Mu Ying asked.
Wei Ming nodded and quickly handed the letter over to Mu Ying. Mu Sheng took a look and saw Xue Luoyun's plan written on it. First, he wanted her to rescue the Holy Maiden together, so that he could gather the people outside. While at the same time, he wanted Mu Ying to quickly inform the Emperor of the situation over here and see if the Emperor could deploy troops. When that happened, everyone would work together to eradicate this place in one fell swoop.
After Mu Ying finished reading the letter, he expressed his admiration for Xue Ruyun's arrangement. She really liked her sharp and smart appearance. Thinking up to this point, his heart was filled with longing for Xue Luoyun.
It had been a very long time since the two of them had last seen each other. The last time they had met, she had been standing on top of the attic.
As the saying goes, one day apart is like three autumns. Mu Ying's heart was filled with longing for Xue Ruyun, and Mu Ying felt that these past few days were like ten thousand years. He closed his eyes, and the only thing that appeared in his mind was Xue Luoyun. I missed her, missed her face, missed her smile, missed her every move. I wonder how she is now.
Mu Ying gently held the letter in his hand and kissed it. He imagined Xue Luoyun at this moment beside him, imagining how she would look when she wrote this letter.
Xue Shaoli knew that Xue Ruyun had already snuck in, but there were too many people in here to do a thorough investigation. She made a plan in her mind, and her eyes revealed a calculating look.
Xue Luoyun was still sleeping when he suddenly heard the sound of a cell door. Xue Ruyun turned around and asked, "What else do they want to do at this time?" Xue Ruyun quietly sat in a corner, watching.
A few ghost-masked men pushed a person in and locked him up in a nearby cell.
"Go in." After the Ghost-Masked Man threw the woman into the prison, he walked out. The woman sobbed and removed the black sack from her head.
Heavens, it was actually Xue Shaoli! Xue Ruoyun was shocked.
Xue Ruyun saw that she was looking at her surroundings, so she hid in a corner and cried softly. At this moment, everyone was already asleep. Xue Ruoyun originally wanted to greet her, but she felt that there was something strange about this. Therefore, she secretly observed Xue Shaoli for an entire night.
Xue Shaoli's hand was covered in scars. It looked like she had been beaten. Even the corner of her mouth was bruised, her hair was disheveled, and she looked miserable.
Xue Ruyun couldn't bear it any longer. He was about to call out to her, but he saw that she cried for a while before falling asleep on the dry grass in her cell.
Xue Ruyun shook her head, not wanting to disturb her.
"Elder sister, why are you here?" The next morning, Xue Lian saw Xue Shaoli early in the morning. She shouted carefully, afraid that the bronze masked man would discover her.
As expected, after she shouted a few times, Xue Shaoli turned around and looked in the direction of the voice. She saw Xue Lian waving at her.
"Ah! Little sister, why are you two here?" Xue Lian sat up. He was surprised and happy at the same time. It didn't seem like he was pretending.
"Elder sister, where have you been all these days?" Xue Lian asked.
"When I was captured, I left a clue for my father. I didn't expect them to find out, so they captured me and beat me up. They saw that I admitted my wrongs these past few days, so they let it go." Xue Shaoli touched the wounds on her face and started crying again.
Seeing the deep affection between these two sisters, Xue Ruyun did not participate, and only sat to one side.
"Aiya, elder sister, why are you here as well? Elder sister, quickly save us!" Xue Shaoli shouted in a hypocritical manner, as if she had just seen Xue Ruoyun for the first time.
Actually, the reason she came in this time was to search for Xue Muyun. She changed many cells, and finally saw him here.
Originally, he could have immediately reported it to the Ghost-Masked Man and captured Xue Ruoyun. However, this Xue Luoyun was the most crafty. Xue Shaoli was worried that the Ghost-Masked Man couldn't even look at her.
Currently, Xue Ruyun had already been chosen as the imperial daughter of the heavens. Xue Shaoli only needed to wait here and watch as she was sent to the guillotine.
Xue Ruyun glanced at her. "I was also taken in."
"Then what should we do? Sister, you must save us. Don't leave us here." Afraid that Xue Ruyun would abandon them and flee, Xue Shaoli quickly began to play her love card.
Xue Ruyun glanced at her, but it was unknown if she agreed or not.
The day of the sacrificial ceremony would arrive very soon, and at that time, Xue Luoyun would be pushed to the top of the mountain and beheaded. It wasn't just Xue Ruyun; all the girls that had been chosen were unable to escape death. Through Qiu Shuang, Xue Ruoyun discussed the matter with Mu Ying and planned to start the operation tomorrow. He would first rescue the Holy Maiden who knew all the secrets before thinking about anything else.
Xue Ruyun and the others once again went to the room to offer blood. At this time, she felt that the time was right. It was time to discuss how to rescue the Holy Maiden. This was because two days was the time to sacrifice themselves to the heavens. If she didn't escape then it would be very difficult.
Seeing that the mama and the others were walking out with the blood in their hands, Xue Ruoyun called for everyone to surround them.
"When the mama comes in later, I will knock her out. After that, the Holy Maiden and I will change into mama's clothes and go to the pharmacy. There is someone there to receive us." As soon as we are out of here, I will go and worry about the officials, while you, Holy Maiden, will gather the followers. You guys try your best to stall for time, we will come to save you as soon as possible. " After he finished speaking, Xue Ruoyun gave everyone the detailed arrangements for their respective missions.
"No, I want to go out too!" At this critical moment, Xue Lian suddenly stopped working. She had originally thought that Xue Ruyun would be the same as before. Even if she was in danger, she had to save herself. However, this time, Xue Luoyun had chosen the Holy Maiden to give up on her. This made Xue Lian feel extremely unhappy.
"It's not that I don't want to save you, it's just that the situation is special. Only after the Holy Maiden leaves will we be able to summon disciples to save everyone." Xue Ruyun tried his best to console him.
"Don't worry, everyone is here. I will definitely come back to save you."
"Since the Holy Maiden has to go out, why not I go out with her?" Xue Lian said shamelessly.
"The Holy Maiden does not have any martial arts skills and needs someone to protect her. Furthermore, Mu Ying and I are the only ones who know about this plan. It is extremely dangerous and intertwined with each other. Once we leave this place, we will all be in danger." Xue Luoyun truly had enough of her unreasonable and provocative personality. He wished that he could knock her out.
"Xue Luoyun, don't think that I don't know what you're thinking. Right now, Second Sister is also imprisoned. Do you not want to take this opportunity to abandon us and enjoy the love of your parents on your own?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Can you not cause trouble for no reason? What parent's love, I've never received it, and I don't care about it!" Xue Ruyun angrily glared at her, and when she saw that the ghost-masked man outside seemed to have moved, she couldn't help but worry.
"I know that for the past few days, you have been brooding over our past matters, so on the surface you said that you would come and save us, but in reality, when it really comes to getting out, you are just thinking that you will get out by yourself. Don't think that I don't know what your heart is, you hypocrite!" Xue Lian began to argue loudly.
Xue Ruyun quickly covered her mouth and made her sit down. "Oh, oh, let go of me." Xue Lian could not help but struggle.
"Don't move!" Xue Luoyun suddenly took out a small knife and placed it against Xue Lian's neck. "If you dare make another sound, I'll finish you!" Xue Ruyun's face was filled with fury. His eyes were full of killing intent as he gnashed his teeth in warning.
Frightened by her formidable aura, Xue Lian fell silent. Up until now, she had never seen Xue Ruyun like this. In addition, Xue Ruyun was a person who took the overall situation into consideration. Although at times she was very soft-hearted, for the sake of even more people, she would definitely give up on herself.
She knew that her martial skills were impressive, and she couldn't even struggle against her. If she didn't submit to her right now, Xue Ruoyun had always kept her word and would definitely finish her off right now.
"Even if you want to paint, just believe in big sister Muyun this once. She definitely won't lie to us."
"Yeah, look at this period of time. She risked everything to give us the antidote, and you can tell that she's a good person."
"Elder sister Luoyun is a good person. We all trust her very much. You just wait and see." Although the surrounding girls were all country girls, they were all paying attention to the overall situation. Everyone was reasonable and tried to console Xue Lian's painting.
When Xue Lian saw that everyone was staring at her, and that everyone was praising her, she felt even more displeased. Why was it that every time, no matter where, Xue Luoyun would always be stronger than her. Just what scheme did she play to make everyone praise her?
Xue Lian couldn't accept it in her heart. But now, seeing that everyone was staring at her and that Xue Muyun's blade was also placed on her neck, although she was extremely unhappy in her heart, she still nodded her head. "Then you must promise that you will come back and save me." Xue Lian was extremely wronged and her eyes were filled with tears. At this moment, she was like a helpless little girl.
Xue Ruyun's heart softened. She took out her blade and lightly wiped the tears off Xue Lai's face. "Trust me, I definitely will."
At this moment, footsteps sounded outside the door. It was two mama. Everyone hurriedly returned to their original positions and stood up.
The two mama opened the door to the secret passageway, preparing to take the Holy Maiden down. Taking advantage of the opportunity where his back was facing everyone, Xue Ruoyun jumped forward, grabbed the head of a mama with his left hand, and abruptly twisted his right hand, breaking her neck.
At this time, the other mama reacted and was about to shout out, but Xue Ruoyun flew over and kicked her, knocking her to the ground. When everyone saw this, they ran forward and tightly held on to the mama's mouth, suffocating her to death.
During this period of time, everyone hated this mama to the bone for letting everyone bleed her every day. After she died, everyone was still angry. They punched a few more times and raised their feet, feeling extremely relieved. They had never been this brave before.
"Alright, alright, don't miss any important matters." Xue Ruyun pushed everyone away and quickly pulled out the mama. He took off their clothes and quickly changed into them along with the Holy Maiden.
After changing their clothes, the two of them imitated the appearance of the mama and swaggered out.
