"Shopkeeper Chen, how are you?" Chen Jingyuan asked anxiously.
Shopkeeper Chen's face was as pale as paper, with a shocking trace of blood hanging from the corner of his mouth, but he still forced a smile.
He breathed weakly and said, "Thank you, Prince Wang and General Xiong, for rescuing me. I... I can still hold on."
Shopkeeper Chen has never known Chen Jingyuan's true identity. He firmly believed that Chen Jingyuan was Wang Xinyao's biological brother, so naturally he took his sister's surname Wang.
General Xiong Yun quickly stepped forward and carefully examined Shopkeeper Chen's injuries. He said in a deep voice, "Shopkeeper Chen, your injuries are indeed serious. The most urgent thing is to heal them quickly."
After saying that, he quickly took out a healing pill that Wang Xinyao had specially given him from the package he was carrying.
The pill melted in his mouth, and a magical scene happened. Shopkeeper Chen's wound healed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
When Shopkeeper Chen's condition improved slightly, Chen Jingyuan immediately asked more questions.
"Manager Chen, why did those men in black attack you?"
Shopkeeper Chen slowed down and finally felt a surge of strength in his body.
"Master Wang, Brother Xiaogang is being hunted down. We must rescue him immediately!"
His tone was filled with urgency.
"Brother Xiaogang?"
Chen Jingyuan was full of surprise. Xie Xiaogang actually came to Beijing as well?
Shopkeeper Chen nodded vigorously and replied:
"The day before yesterday, we rescued a girl, but on the way to the capital, they were tricked by the tea vendors in the pavilion. I told him to take the girl and escape first, but there were too many people on the other side and they caught up with us!"
"girl?"
Chen Jingyuan and General Xiong Yun looked at each other, and a bad premonition suddenly arose in their hearts. They both knew that the situation was probably extremely serious.
They hurriedly took out Zhao Yuwei's portrait from their pockets and unfolded it in front of Manager Chen.
"Shopkeeper Chen, do you recognize the person in the painting?"
Seeing how solemn their expressions were, Shopkeeper Chen did not dare to be careless at all and moved closer to carefully identify them.
"Yes, yes, it's this girl! We rescued her from the eldest prince of the Miao Kingdom!"
"What? It turned out to be his doing!" General Chen Jingyuan and Xiong Yun couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
It seems that Chen Yingtao is the mastermind behind the disappearance of Princess Zhao Yuwei.
"Who is this girl?" Shopkeeper Chen couldn't help but ask.
Chen Jingyuan said excitedly, "She is the Princess of Xia, the current emperor's favorite daughter. Shopkeeper Chen, hurry up, we have to find her as soon as possible!"
After so many days, there is finally news about the princess.
"Ah?" Shopkeeper Chen was shocked. He didn't expect it to be such a coincidence that they accidentally saved a princess.
At this time, Manager Chen's wound was recovering. After a brief discussion, the three of them immediately decided to go together to find the whereabouts of Princess Zhao Yuwei and Xie Xiaogang.
They knew that time was running out and the princess's safety was at stake.
The three of them searched carefully along the suburban path, not missing any possible corner.
The mountain road was rugged and difficult to travel on, and every step was full of hardship, but they had no intention of retreating.
When it was bright, they finally found suspicious traces in a dense forest.
There were messy footprints on the ground and many broken branches. It was obvious that someone passed by in a hurry.
Chen Jingyuan squatted down, examined it carefully, then stood up, a look of determination flashed in his eyes:
"It seems that Brother Xiaogang and the princess may have passed by here. Let's follow these traces!"
So they followed the traces all the way.
After a while, a small wooden house came into view in the distance, and there seemed to be a figure swaying in front of the yard of the wooden house.
It turned out that Xie Xiaogang and Zhao Yuwei hid in the basement for a whole night and thought they would be safe.
Unexpectedly, after checking outside, the criminals were sure that they were still in the house.
Soon, the criminals found them at the secret door.
In desperation, Xie Xiaogang had to escape from the basement with Zhao Yuwei, but as soon as they reached the yard, they were surrounded by four gangsters.
The villain attacked without saying a word.
The other party was very strong and had many people. Xie Xiaogang also had to protect Zhao Yuwei, so he was unable to resist for a while.
Seeing a gangster attacking Zhao Yuwei, Xie Xiaogang's heart suddenly tightened.
Without thinking, he flew in front of her and blocked her way, but he was hit hard, and his clothes were instantly stained with blood.
"Xie Xiaoge!" Zhao Yuwei screamed in horror.
But the villain showed no mercy and attacked her again. Zhao Yuwei's eyes went dark and she fainted.
"girl……"
Xie Xiaogang cried out in grief, his heart filled with self-blame and unwillingness. He hated himself for being so weak that he couldn't even protect the woman who made his heart beat for the first time.
After Zhao Yuwei fell, a gangster dragged her into the room and tied her up tightly with a rope.
"Hahaha... This girl is so pretty, we'll have fun with her later!" The gangster laughed wildly.
Another gangster shouted, "Alright, hurry up and get out here and take care of this. We haven't sent anyone with cultivation to the master these past two days. He's definitely going to be mad, and we'll all be in big trouble."
As soon as he finished speaking, the gangster came out of the room and the four of them attacked Xie Xiaogang together.
Xie Xiaogang was already injured and was now powerless to resist. He was about to be caught.
At the critical moment, General Xiong Yun arrived first and instantly engaged in a battle with the criminals.
Chen Jingyuan and Manager Chen also hurried over.
"Jingyuan, hurry up and save that girl, she is in the room inside!" When Xie Xiaogang saw them, a glimmer of hope emerged in his eyes.
Shopkeeper Chen immediately joined the fight and wrestled with the villains.
Chen Jingyuan rushed into the room and saw the woman tied to the pillar at a glance. It was the princess Zhao Yuwei they had been looking for.
"Princess!"
Chen Jingyuan hurried forward and untied the rope.
Zhao Yuwei was unconscious, her face was as pale as paper, and there were many scars on her body.
Chen Jingyuan hurriedly checked her injuries. Fortunately, she was just unconscious and not in danger of life. He immediately fed her a healing pill.
With the help of Manager Chen and General Xiong Yun, the situation was reversed in an instant, and three of the gangsters soon lost their lives.
"Tell me, who are you? Why are you poisoning passers-by in the pavilion?" General Xiong stared at the last gangster and asked coldly.
Unexpectedly, black blood suddenly flowed from the corner of the criminal's mouth.
"Oh no, he has poison hidden in the corner of his mouth and wants to commit suicide!"
As Shopkeeper Chen finished speaking, the last gangster lost his breath and slowly fell to the ground.
At this moment, Zhao Yuwei, who was walked out by Chen Jingyuan, slowly woke up. When she learned that she was rescued, her eyes were filled with tears of gratitude.
However, before they could breathe a sigh of relief, they heard hurried footsteps.
I saw a group of men in black rushing towards me from a distance, led by the leader of the men in black who had escaped before.
"Oh no, they are chasing us!" General Xiong Yun stood up and gripped the spear tightly in his hand.
Xie Xiaogang immediately protected Zhao Yuwei behind him.
Chen Jingyuan's eyes were firm, and he said in a deep voice: "Since they are here, don't even think about going back alive!"
