MTL - I Made a Fortune By Raiding Houses In Ancient Times-Chapter 418 despair
Hearing Ning Chuyi's words, a flash of embarrassment flashed across the emperor's face.
It's no wonder that the people stopped to watch Ling Chu cast a spell, even he was shocked by the ability of Princess Jiashan. I didn't expect that the humble shovel and small hammer could be so powerful and able to block the monstrous flood.
Just seeing Ning Chuyi's cold expression and the suppressed rage in his voice, the emperor guessed that Ling Chu's spell might not last long.
“Everyone listens to the order and evacuates immediately. Anyone who disobeys will be killed without mercy!”
Those people sat paralyzed on the ground, thinking that the crisis had been resolved. While resting, he turned to watch Ling Chu use his magical shovel and small hammer to stop the flood.
Hearing what Ning Chuyi and the emperor said, his face turned pale. After rolling to his feet, he ran away again.
Ning Chuyi roared and turned back immediately.
His eyes fell on the thin back in front, and the fists holding the reins were clenched until the knuckles turned white.
Lingchu ignored the people behind her. The flood was so fierce that she didn't dare to relax at all. The magic formulas of his hands are constantly changing, and the spells in his mouth are constantly changing.
But as the flood hits wave after wave, the energy of the big shovel and small hammer is rapidly weakening and gradually becoming smaller.
Lingchu was getting more and more strenuous, and even in the dead of winter, her forehead was covered with fine beads of sweat. His face, which had no color at all, turned even whiter.
But she still could only grit her teeth and persist, trying to buy more time for the people behind her to escape.
Ning Chuyi’s tall figure is like a statue, silently accompanying her.
Seeing that Ling Chu's gestures for casting spells were becoming more and more difficult, and the incantations in his mouth were becoming slower and slower, his heart felt as if he was being tormented in a frying pan.
If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't interrupt the spell casting, he could hardly help but want to step forward and ask her to give up.
Yin Sha and Wei Feng stood quietly behind Ning Chuyi. The joy in their hearts had long gone. They could see that Ling Chu had reached his limit, but the flood was still coming continuously.
Yin Sha looked solemn and felt relieved.
Wei Feng was not as calm as him. His eyes flickered back and forth between Ling Chu and Ning Chuyi, and he frequently looked back at the people fleeing for their lives. He was worried in his heart, but since Ning Chuyi wouldn't leave, he could only wait anxiously.
Perhaps sensing the danger, the horse under the two seats snorted frequently and moved its hooves uneasily. If it weren't for the two horses being well-trained and being held tightly by Yin Sha and Wei Feng, they would have turned around and fled long ago.
Just when Ning Chuyi couldn't help it and wanted to rush forward and take Ling Chu away regardless, she suddenly turned her head and looked straight over.
“Go quickly.”
Ling Chu knew that he couldn't hold on any longer. The system was already warning frantically that the energy was about to be exhausted.
She wanted to ask Ning Chuyi to take Yin Sha and Wei Feng away quickly, but she was too weak to speak.
Ning Chuyi didn't hear her voice, but he could see what she wanted to say clearly from the shape of her mouth.
But he didn't move, his eyes were fixed on her face, "Together."
Ning Chuyi’s eyes were firm and his expression was irrefutable.
Perhaps in the face of crisis, people’s hearts are often particularly easy to soften.
At this moment, it would be a lie to say that I am not moved.
In the face of life and death, there were only a handful of people who could risk everything to stay by her side.
Something in Lingchu's heart was quickly breaking out of the ground, taking root and sprouting.
She looked back at him deeply, smiled, and said "Okay" with her lips lightly parted.
Ning Chuyi didn't hear her words, his eyes fell softly on her smiling face, but his face was still tense.
Ling Chu turned around, looked at the crumbling shovel and small hammer, and bit the tip of his tongue.
Take advantage of the moment when the pain woke up the dizzy brain, he quickly recited the incantation, made several complicated seals with his hands, and quickly pushed towards the direction of the flood.
At the moment of contact with the flood, an invisible high wall rises from the ground.
After Lingchu waved his hand to take back the shovel and small hammer, he immediately turned his horse's head and said to Ning Chuyi, "Let's go."
Ning Chuyi didn't say anything. He waited until Ling Chu passed by on his horse, then he pulled the reins to follow.
Seeing that the two were finally leaving, Yin Sha and Wei Feng breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly rode to follow them. The high wall could only block the flood for a quarter of an hour. Ling Chu held the reins with one hand and whipped the horse's back with the other.
Yin Sha and the others also kept urging their horses. They must escape from here before the high wall is broken by the flood.
Time is passing bit by bit, and we are about to catch up with the people in front.
There was a sudden loud noise behind him, and the moment the high wall was broken by a huge wave, Ling Chu's eyesight went dark.
Ning Chuyi has always been worried about her condition and stared at her closely.
The moment he saw her slipping off the horse, he quickly leaned over Texue and stretched out his long arms. After catching Ling Chu, he exerted force on his waist and quickly sat upright.
Look down.
Lingchu had already passed out and was lying in his arms unconsciously, his little face turned white and transparent.
If it weren't for her slight breathing, Ning Chuyi would have almost thought she was dead.
The flood behind him was chasing after him. Ning Chuyi held Ling Chu's hand with one hand and pulled up the reins with the other, signaling Ta Xue to accelerate with all his strength.
Perhaps he knew that the danger was not yet out of the way, so he ran forward as fast as an arrow leaving a string through the snow.
Seeing the black mass of human heads in the distance, Ning Chuyi frowned tightly.
What happened to those people that they didn’t go to Daluo Mountain?
Ahead, the people were looking at the suspension bridge in front of them with despair.
It’s not that they don’t want to go up the mountain, but there is a big river running across the front of Daluo Mountain.
If you want to go up the mountain, you must first cross the bridge.
But the bridge is neither an ordinary wooden bridge nor a stone bridge.
But a shabby chain suspension bridge!
Once a person stands on it, the bridge swings violently, and there are very few places to stay and the distance is still far.
Even if you can barely walk up there, if you're not careful, you'll fall into the roiling river below.
With such a broken bridge, not to mention the common people dare not walk, even the imperial guards who are highly skilled in martial arts are paralyzed by the sight of it.
Seeing that Daluo Mountain is right in front of us, we can't pass it, but at this moment, the flood behind us is about to catch up with us.
Some people were so frightened that they cried, and some people cried out in despair, "God is blind, why is there a flood? I don't want to die, and I haven't left any children for our family yet!"
The cries in the crowd became louder and louder, and the imperial guards did not stop them.
There is nothing they can do.
The emperor's face was dark. When he heard the sound of horse hoofbeats and turned around to see Ning Chuyi, he felt happy.
Seeing Ling Chu in his arms, his heart sank again.
The emperor originally wanted to ask her if there was any way to go to Daluo Mountain, but unexpectedly she fainted.
Ning Chuyi has already seen the broken bridge and knows why everyone is trapped here.
“Can you wake up Princess Jiashan and ask her if there is anything you can do?”
Although he knew that Ling Chu fainted and must have been feeling unwell, the emperor still gritted his teeth and spoke when he heard the sound of floodwaters getting closer and closer.
Ning Chuyi pursed her lips and lowered her eyes. She was silent, and finally raised her head to look at the emperor, "Sun Yuanzheng..."
He wanted Sun Yuanzheng to take Ling Chu's pulse to see if he was seriously injured.
Unexpectedly, before he finished speaking, Ling Chu opened his eyes weakly.
