051 into the sea
Hearing what they said, it was obvious that the two were going to be executed.
"Exactly three days later is the sacrificial ceremony of our clan. Why don't we let their two heads sacrifice to our people who died in vain? Dad, what do you think?"
After hearing this, the old patriarch nodded and went out.
Before leaving, the old patriarch turned his head to look at them and said to them slowly, "Take good care of yourself these days. After three days, you will die at our sacrificial ceremony."
With that, they turned around and left.Huangfu Shangyin couldn't help but be a little angry for a while.
He looked at Murong Qinglu and said angrily to Murong Qinglu, "Let you mind your own business. Have you seen it now? You have been nosy and saved his great-grandson. Others not only do not appreciate you, but also want to kill us. It's really annoying."
Murong Qingluo was still faint and didn't say a word.
Looking at her appearance, she seems to be fearless.
On the contrary, Huangfu Shangyin admired her a lot in his heart, and he stopped talking there.
He just said a few words from time to time: "I really don't know why I saved you. If I had known that you liked to die so much, I would have let you go."
Murong Qinglu remembered in his heart that his life was buried here so soon, and he didn't do anything that Murong Mengze ordered.
Thinking of Murong Mengze again, she only felt indescribably sad, but she didn't say anything more.
In the past three days, the old patriarch really ordered people to bring them some food to eat and drink well.
However, despite this, the intention to kill them is also determined.
The chain tied them tightly, and the two of them could not escape at all.
Seeing the passing day after day, it will soon be the third day.
In one night, it will be their sacrificial ceremony, and then the two of them will have only one way to die.
Huangfu Shangyin no longer quarreled every day like two days ago.
He smiled and said, "Forget it, I really didn't expect it. I didn't want to marry you as my wife at all, but I married you. I don't want to die at all, but I want to die, and I don't want to be with you. Instead, I want to die with you. It's really ridiculous to think about it.
Murong Qinglu didn't say anything, but just looked at him indifferently.
"In fact, it's okay to die with you. It's better than being alone on Huangquan Road." Huangfu Shangyin couldn't help sighing.
The two people were waiting for the time of death, but they didn't expect that someone would suddenly come in.
The man opened the door and walked in. They looked up and found that it was not someone else, but the old patriarch's grandson Hongkun.
After he came in, he took a key, opened the iron lock tied to the two people, and then said to the two people, "Escape quickly, or you won't be able to escape tomorrow."
Seeing him do this made Murong Qinglu and Huangfu Shangyin feel very surprised.
Murong Qinglu asked, "If you let us go, how can the old patriarch spare you?"
"He is my grandfather, and he should not deal with me very much. Hurry up. If it's later, I'm afraid you won't be able to leave.
"Why did you save us?" Huangfu Shangyin felt a little strange and asked.
"It was you who saved Naxiang and did what I didn't dare to do. If it weren't for you, Naxiang and my son would have been burned to death. Now you have not only saved Naxiang and the child in her belly, but also made my grandfather change his mind and let us be together. You are our benefactors. I have discussed with Naxiang that you will never be executed at the sacrificial ceremony tomorrow, or risk your lives to save you. Don't say too much. Let's go. I have prepared a boat for you at the seaside. It's just that I have something to ask for, and please promise us.
It was a little surprised to hear that his voice was so pious.
She thought slightly and understood what he wanted.
"You know? How do you know?" Huangfu Shangyin felt a little strange and asked Murong Qingqi.
Murong Qingluo smiled and whispered, "Since Hong Kun did not hesitate to save us by taking risks, it can be seen that he is an affectionate and righteous person. What is the repeated plea for us by an affectionate and righteous person like him? Naturally, I hope that we don't talk about Baiyu Island, so that the court will not investigate Baiyu Island. Hong Kun, am I right?
After hearing this, Hong Kun nodded quickly and praised repeatedly, "The girl is really Lan Xinhui. What she said is not bad. Please promise me. Hong Kun is very grateful."
With that, he was about to kneel down for them.
Murong Qinglu has hurriedly helped him up and said to him, "Don't worry, I swear I will never reveal anything about White Fish Island. How about you?"
With that, Murong Qinglu turned his face to look at Huangfu Shangyin.
"I..."
Huangfu Shangyin hesitated a little. After all, he fell here, and he was naturally unhappy in his heart.
After hearing Murong Qinglu's words, he thought for a moment and said helplessly to Murong Qinglu and Hong Kun, "Well, I also promise you that since the man said something, it's hard to chase, and I don't care about what happened here."
"Don't worry, we promise you that since we won't tell the secret here, we won't."
"Of course I believe in you two. I'm also very grateful that you two are in danger in order to save Naxiang. In this case, I'll send you away."
With that, he was going to take two people out.
After they went out, they followed him to the seaside.
At the seaside, a boat had been prepared there for a long time, and there was a person standing beside the boat.
The man's white hair stood there. His white hair was blown by the wind, making people feel a lonely chill in his heart.
"Grandpa?"
Hong Kun was suddenly a little surprised, and Murong Qinglu and Huangfu Shangyin had also seen it.
The one standing in front of him is none other than the old patriarch.
The old patriarch stood there with his hands behind his back without saying a word.
After they walked over, the old patriarch turned his head and looked at them.
"Grandpa, I beg you to let them go. They are like this to save me. If it's not to save me, why not stop here?"
The old man turned his head and sighed softly to them and said, "Yes, you reveal your identity to save my grandson. Although I don't know who you are, I believe you will never talk nonsense when you see that you have such a chivalrous heart, right? You can go now."
With that, he pointed to the boat, obviously letting the two of them escape.
The behavior of the old patriarch made them feel strange.
It turned out that the old patriarch had already expected that Hongkun would save them, and other things had already been expected by him.
It's just that he wants to let the two of them go.
"Thank you, old patriarch."
Murong Qinglu said and pulled Huangfu Shangyin. The two quickly walked into the boat and left by boat.
After their ship went out of the sea, the old patriarch still stood there.
He said slowly, "I'm sorry, it's not that I want to do this to you, but it really can't be known here. I have to do this for the residents of White Fish Island."
With that, he turned his face and said to Hong Kun, "Hong Kun, let's go back."
"Thank you, Grandpa, for saving them."
Hong Kun said as he spoke and went back with his grandfather.
After Murong Qinglu and Huangfu Shangyin got on the boat, they rowed the boat in the sea.
Huangfu Shangyin rowed for the first time, but he rowed very well and couldn't help but be a little complacent.
He said to Murong Qinglu, "I'm really a genius. No matter what I do, I'm very good at it."
Hearing that he was complacent there, Murong Qinglu didn't think so.
Murong Qingqi said slowly with worry in his eyes, "Your Majesty, don't you think it's too easy for the old patriarch to send us away?"
"What's so easy? Because we saved his grandson, it's reasonable for him to send us away. As the saying goes, it's to repay kindness, isn't it?
"I always feel that things are not so simple. The old patriarch is responsible for the mission of the whole family, but now it's so easy to let us go. I always feel that things are not what we think."
As she spoke, she looked around the boat.
Sure enough, after a while, the expression on her face became very serious.
It's very surprising to see her.
Huangfu Shangyin looked at her and said to her, "What's wrong? What's wrong? Why did your face suddenly become so ugly?"
At this moment, the sky is already bright, and the two people have been wandering on the sea for most of the night.
Then Murong Qinglu said to Huangfu Shangyin, "Your Majesty, don't be too nervous after listening to what I said."
With that, she sighed, "Actually, I found that this ship was a rubber ship, but they were made of natural glue, so the waterproof performance would be better, but I think something will happen if we don't get to the shore."
"What do you mean?" Huangfu Shangyin's face suddenly changed greatly.
Murong Qingqi said slowly, "Actually, I felt strange at the beginning why the old man let us leave so easily. I didn't figure it out for a long time. Now I finally understand that the old man didn't want to let us go from beginning to end. The reason why he did this was to appease his grandson. In fact, the ship the old man gave us is a rubber ship, do you understand? That is to say, the ship is made of a natural glue, which may crack at any time after encountering water.
"Ah? Are you telling the truth? Huangfu Shangyin immediately threw the oars in his hand and walked to her side and asked.
Murong Qinglu nodded gently.
"What should I do?"
"It's up to God."
Murong Qinglu said slowly, "If the boat really cracks for a while, each of us will hold a piece of wood and drift on the sea. We can't say that we can meet someone to save us, otherwise I don't know what to do."
Huangfu Shangyin only realized how serious the matter was at this moment, but there was nothing he could do, so he had to nod.
At this time, a big ship suddenly came over.
Huangfu Shangyin was very excited when he saw the ship and said repeatedly, "I don't think we have to worry about it this time. Look, there is a big ship coming here."
Murong Qinglu looked up and saw a big ship coming, and she couldn't help but be ecstatic.
The two men waved to the big ship desperately. Not long after, the big ship came.
It turned out to be a merchant's ship.
Huangfu Shangyin begged them to save people. The people on the ship were not bad people. After hearing the plea, he immediately helped.
In order to save them, the merchant ship did not hesitate to return to the shore before starting again.
They were rescued to the shore and said goodbye to the people on the merchant ship.
After arriving at the shore, I looked around. The two of them only felt that they were dead and hugged each other tightly.
Huangfu Shangyin said repeatedly, "I really didn't expect that we survived in the end, and we still survived."
"Yes." Murong Qinglu also felt very happy in his heart.
I don't know why the two of them were originally hostile to each other, but at this moment, they felt that each other was their own support.
After hugging together, Murong Qinglu suddenly realized something and suddenly retreated.
Huangfu Shangyin also quickly pushed her away.
"I'm sorry, I was so happy just now." Huangfu Shangyin said to Murong Qinglu.
"Yes, that's why I am." Murong Qinglu also said quickly.
Both of them looked at each other with some embarrassment.
At this time, a fishing boat was about to go into the sea, so they went over and asked what it was, and then they knew that it was an estuary 20 miles away from the capital.
