Chapter 279 Escape
Chapter 279 Escape
The three looked at each other, Liu Xiaoqing sighed and said:
"It's the only way."
She opened the door a crack, looked around for no one, turned her head and waved, motioning for another girl to help the girl on the bed, Liu Xiaoqing used the key to open the mahogany door that trapped them in the backyard of the nunnery, and the three of them took advantage of the corners and shadows of the building , proceeding cautiously towards the exit of the nunnery.
It's unbelievable how smooth the journey was. Although the three of them had met two or three nuns, they probably didn't expect them to have the courage to flee. All of them were slack, and the three of them easily avoided it. .
When they reached the front hall quickly, when Liu Xiaoqing took out the key to open the door, they suddenly heard voices coming from behind the door. The three of them suddenly felt uncomfortable, and quickly stopped their movements. Looking quietly through the crack of the door, they found that it was the capital city. After sending the newcomers, Jinghui, the abbot of the nunnery, is receiving them.
I saw a few people discussing with each other in the quiet room after entering the main hall. Perhaps it was to create an image of a serious nunnery. There were still many nuns in the main hall who were chanting scriptures and praying. In the ears, it sounded like a death knell.
The girl who was barely able to walk was supported by two people, gritted her teeth and said:
"Now that Jinghui has gone to the back of the hall, you leave me behind and sneak out. It's just the two of you, there is no hindrance. If you move faster, you will definitely be able to escape."
Liu Xiaoqing said:
"No, we agreed, we want to escape together, there is absolutely no reason for us to escape without leaving you alone."
No matter what the girl tried to persuade, the other two still refused to leave her behind. Gritting her teeth, Liu Xiaoqing carefully inserted the key into the lock, and the lock cylinder popped open. The three of them walked past the front of the hall with fear in their hearts. Move towards the door of the nunnery.
Just when they were about to reach the finish line and were only one step short of escaping from here, Jing Hui, who had just gone to the quiet room at the back of the palace with someone to discuss matters, just finished the discussion and walked out of the quiet room, Fang Yi looked up. , and saw the three furtively planning to sneak out.
Jinghui was also taken aback, subconsciously went to find the place where the key was placed, and found that there was nothing there, then reacted, and even scolded:
"Okay, you little girls, you are really courageous, Jing He, catch them back for me, and send them to Pudu in the back mountain!"
The three of them trembled immediately, and Liu Xiaoqing said "Run!", and the three of them ran away like crazy, even the injured girl ran away regardless of the pain on her body.
However, she was seriously injured. Before she ran far, she fell to the ground weakly due to the injury on her leg. The other two only realized it after running a while away. Looking back, the girl who fell looked back and chased after her. The dozen or so ferocious nuns turned to them and shook their heads desperately:
"Leave me alone! Run! Run!"
Liu Xiaoqing only hesitated for a moment, then gritted her teeth, turned back, helped her up, put her arms on the back of her neck, and staggered forward step by step with difficulty.
The girl who was taken away kept persuading her in her ear:
"Xiao Qing, let me go! Let me go! Otherwise, how could you escape?!"
Seeing the people chasing after him getting closer and closer, Liu Xiaoqing gritted her teeth and ran forward desperately without saying a word.
But in the end, the girl who was picked up by her was right. With her, the chasing nun quickly caught up with the two of them.
The old nun in the lead grabbed Liu Xiaoqing by the back of the collar, pulled the two of them back mercilessly, and said with a sinister smile:
"Little hoof, still want to run? Where are you going? Do you think there is a place for you in this world besides this?!"
Probably because she knew her own ending, Liu Xiaoqing was not afraid at this time, and spat at the old nun mercilessly, cursing:
"Damn, where is my mother? It's your turn to worry about a rotten heart, a rotten heart, a black-hearted old nun?! I'd rather fight for food with the wild dogs in the wasteland than suffer to death with a nun like you. Um!"
"You... you... evil animal!"
Probably because he didn't expect Liu Xiaoqing to dare to retaliate in such a way, the old nun was trembling with anger, raised the long whip in his hand, and was about to swing it at Liu Xiaoqing.
The moment these words came out of his mouth, Liu Xiaoqing knew that he would not have a good time in the future, so when he saw the old nun raising the long whip, he closed his eyes subconsciously and fearfully, and was ready to be beaten.
However, the next moment, the expected whipping did not fall on him. Liu Xiaoqing only heard the old nun scream, and when he opened his eyes, he saw a red figure flying by on the horse's back, grabbed it and shot it into the old nun's arm. The tail feathers of the crossbow arrows were pulled out suddenly with the momentum of the galloping horse.
Old Ni screamed again, and fell straight down holding his injured arm, rolling and howling on the ground.
Liu Xiaoqing stared blankly, and only thought of raising her head after a while, and hurriedly looked at the red figure just now, fixed her eyes, and suddenly said in surprise:
"It's...it's you? Why are you here?"
Lou Rongrong didn't answer immediately, but reined in her horse and turned around, facing the rest of the nuns who were chasing Liu Xiaoqing and the others, and stopped her horse.
Jinghui, who is the leader, did not expect that some people would come forward to obstruct them just by catching a few fleeing women. Seeing Lou Rongrong's awe-inspiring aura, unlike ordinary people, she thought about it for a moment, clasped her hands together, and took a step forward:
"Amitabha, the benefactor Wanan, it was the bhikkhuni who broke the precepts of this temple and fled just now. We repented for chasing him and punished him. The benefactor thought that we were going to hurt someone, so he acted. It's because of appearances. Jing'an, go and take Jinghe to heal."
As expected of someone who has been able to manage these nunneries for many years, at least on the surface, Jinghui's demeanor and demeanor are no different from the abbot of the nunnery of the Great Temple. Just a few words make people subconsciously want to believe her.
Hearing this, the old nun named Jing'an was about to come out and bring back the howling Jinghe on the ground, but before she could take a step, Lou Rongrong threw the bleeding arrow in front of her eyes, scaring her. She immediately stepped back, how could she dare to take half a step.
As soon as Jinghui's face changed, she immediately understood that Lou Rongrong's coming here might not have good intentions, so she folded her hands together and said:
"Amitabha, monks don't commit crimes of killing. If the donor does such a reckless act, he may lose his lifespan and make it difficult to accumulate merit. Please leave quickly, and don't stop us from doing things."
Only then did Liu Xiaoqing come to her senses, and hurriedly said to Lou Rongrong:
"Don't believe them! We..."
Before she could finish speaking, Lou Rongrong turned her head and made a silent gesture to her, then turned to face Jinghui, and said with a half-smile:
"What if I refuse to leave?"
Probably because after talking for so long, Jinghui became more courageous because she only saw Lou Rongrong alone, she winked at the people at the side, and said:
"Then don't blame me for waiting for the monks to be rude."
