In the midst of Wei Luo's thoughts, the maid suddenly laughed and said: "Out here in the wilderness, whether you say it or not makes no difference. Just take off your clothes and everything will be clear. As for who you are, my family's princess probably doesn't care!"
She said this, looked up and down at Wei Luo for a moment, then snorted, "A lowly little thing, using every trick in the book to curry favor with the Crown Prince. The young master may pity your talent and tolerate you, but we can't!"
She said this, and with a direct wave of her hand towards the two swordsmen, she shouted: "Subdue her!"
Wei Luo hastily retreated a step back, but these five people clearly did not intend to let her speak. The two swordsmen raised their copper swords and took steps forward, pressing in on her.
Wei Luo took two steps back again.
She racked her brains, thinking of all sorts of ways to get out of this predicament, but no matter how she thought about it, the only way was to take out her wooden sword and counterattack. But if she did that, she would have to use all her strength! She was facing three swordsmen, and even if she used all her strength, there was no guarantee she could escape! Moreover, the sword technique she had originally not wanted to reveal would definitely be exposed.
She no longer had a lucky mentality, and her mind was calm. The whole person, with all his heart and soul, began to pay attention to the two swordsmen who were slowly approaching.
At this moment, her breathing was slow and calm, steady and deep. With each breath, she seemed to be following some mysterious rhythm. In her field of vision, the two swordsmen's every step, every movement had become extremely slow, vulnerable to attack at any moment.
Wei Luo took another step back.
At this moment, her eyes were as clear as a still pond, deep and cold, quiet and calm. Her right hand, which had been clutching the left sleeve, began to feel its way into the sleeve.
Her hand touched the wooden sword!
At this moment, Wei Luo's ears perked up!
As she entered that profound and mysterious state, as the intention to kill began to rise in her. Her ears suddenly picked up two faint rustling sounds.
The sound was extremely faint, so faint that Weir couldn't tell whether it was the sound of someone breathing or the sound of a person moving and rubbing against the air.
That sound came from a hundred meters away in the woods behind the crowd!
Someone is following!
And the person tracking is an expert, absolutely an expert!
Only someone like that could follow them without being detected. If it weren't for Weilo's breathing method, and the extraordinary swordsmanship she had practiced, which made her extremely sensitive to these natural sounds and auras, as well as movements, she would never have discovered them.
The swordsmanship of those two is absolutely above these three!
Alright, apart from the people of Jingling Fu, who else would come to follow? All along, one's movements had already been noticed by the young master of Jingling. The 13th princess sending someone to take oneself out of the mansion was such a big deal, it's impossible that no one knew!
These two followed all the way, but lurked without coming out, perhaps they were ordered by the Duke of Jingling to take advantage of others' hands to probe their own secrets. Otherwise, with this small trick, how could they mix out of the heavily guarded mansion of the Duke of Jingling?
These thoughts were just fleeting.
Suddenly, Wei Luo took a big step back, her movement was very sudden. Originally, she had always been timid and cowardly, shrinking back like an ordinary child.
Wei Luo retreated, and the two swordsmen who had been pressing in on her were momentarily stunned.
In the midst of several people's confusion, Wei Luo retreated six or seven steps in a row. The 18- or 19-year-old maid let out a snort and was about to speak mockingly. But then she heard Wei Luo open his mouth and shout loudly: "Young Master sent you two to protect me, is this how you're supposed to protect me?"
Her words were extremely sudden, loud and shrill, echoing far away, shaking the leaves rustling, startling a flock of birds returning home.
At this moment, the five people opposite Wei Luo were all stunned, they looked at Wei Luo with a foolish expression, really couldn't understand how she could say such words out of nowhere.
Weiluo's head jerked up, staring at the woods where the sound came from. She let out a cold snort, her eyes gleaming with anger, and shouted again: "I am Weiluo, the favored one of the young master! He has never laid hands on me, you two are swordsmen, can't you tolerate these two lowly men insulting me? You were standing right next to him, yet you pretended not to hear or see anything. Truly, I don't know how such unworthy people like you can be called swordsmen!"
Wei Luo's voice was sharp and sarcastic, with a tone of disdain, saying something like "I am the one who is favored by the young master... How dare these two lowly men humiliate me?" And her eyes were piercing, staring straight at that place.
In an instant, all five of them were stunned, they looked at each other in dismay, their faces greatly changed.
Those two swordsmen still didn't quite believe it, they exchanged a glance and turned back to look around, but still couldn't find anything, so they turned their heads and stared at Wei Luo without blinking, their eyebrows slightly furrowed.
However, Wei Luo was obviously not speaking idly. Her eyes were still fixed on the woods, occasionally moving as if following someone's movement.
Unconsciously, the five of them turned their heads again and followed Weiruo's gaze into that thicket.
The wind blows through the leaves, fallen leaves flutter, birds chirp and frogs croak, insects hum and people breathe.
There are voices everywhere, but obviously there is no outsider! Could it be that this child has gone mad?
Just as the five of them were at a loss, they suddenly heard two soft whooshing sounds, and two figures floated down from the dense foliage.
These are two middle-aged people.
The two men were barefoot and had dark, weathered faces that seemed ancient. At first glance, the deep wrinkles on their old faces and their dull, yellowish eyes made them appear to be just ordinary rural farmers.
They have copper swords on their backs, and their hemp robes have large sleeves flying around them.
They were shocked and stood still, the five pale-faced men just curiously sizing up Wei Luo as she walked towards them with big strides.
Before long, the two of them arrived ten meters in front of Wei Luo.
These two men look quite similar in appearance and are only three years apart in age, they should be two brothers.
The two of them walked straight towards Wei Luo, stopping three meters in front of her. The older one then turned his turbid yellow eyeballs and opened his dry mouth, "Youngster, how did you know we were here?"
The young man also asked in a low voice at the same time: "Little brother, your brother's method of quiet breathing is unique. How did you know we were here?"
Wei Luo pouted and hummed, saying: "I've had keen ears since I was young, and can hear the sound of falling leaves and flying flowers from 50 meters away."
As soon as she said this, the two of them surprisingly showed a look of envy at the same time and simultaneously let out a dry sigh, saying: "Good fortune."
They gazed at Weiruo, their scorching eyes almost hot, a kind of heat that saw treasure.
Under their gaze, Wei Luo hastily puffed out her chest and raised her chin, trying to make herself appear more majestic and awe-inspiring, so that these two would take notice of her. These two were obviously high-ranking members of the Mo family; if she could be taken in as their disciple, she would be one step closer to freedom.
Who would have known, the two of them exchanged a few glances and simultaneously sighed: "Alas, we are not capable of tying up a chicken!" "Even if one has ears that can hear from a hundred miles away, what's the use when one is small and weak, not one of us!"
It's another sentence like this.
Wei Luo was about to roll her eyes, she weakly pursed her lips and thought to herself: If you don't have the ability to truss a chicken, then you're not even worthy of being considered one of us? Humph, I already possess a set of sword skills, I've long been a qualified swordsman.
But she wouldn't say that. Saying it would reveal her trump card, and these two people's intentions were unclear, with unknown backgrounds, and it was very possible that after she confessed, they would sell her out to their master.
Wei Luo glanced at them with a mixture of fear and trepidation, exchanging glances with each other, but didn't know how to react. These five people were indeed extraordinary, they only needed one glance to realize that the two brothers were superior, truly superior. Their swordsmanship had already reached an unattainable height for themselves.
In addition, the matter had already been leaked, and no matter whether they escaped or not, they could not escape the means of Jingling Gongzi. After thinking about it repeatedly, the five people found that there was nothing they could do.
Wei Luo's face turned as white as paper towards the five people, and she was very happy in her heart. She thought that finally, the situation had turned around. She tilted her head, smiled and admired them for a while before turning to the two brothers, pointing at the five people with a smile and saying: "These five thieves want to humiliate me, why don't you quickly capture them and send them to Gongzi for punishment?"
The two brothers looked at Wei Luo with a rather arrogant and rude gaze. Then, they turned around and shouted to the five people: "Get on the carriage by yourselves and return to Jingling Fu!"
So, the group of people sneaked out with Wei Luo, and now Wei Luo was driving them back in a grand manner. Of course, her way of driving was to sit beside the coachman from the 13th Princess's residence, shouting loudly and calling out orders.
