Chapter 295 One word becomes a prophecy
Knowing the way, Li Xiaoxiao rode his horse at a gallop this time. As the sky was getting darker, the horse could hardly see the road clearly. Finally, before it got completely dark, he arrived at the boat again.
Just as I was about to go to the other side of the river, I suddenly heard Si Chengxu's low voice: "Xiaoxiao, I found your sister."
Li Xiaoxiao subconsciously looked in the direction where the voice came from, only to see Si Chengxu coming out from behind a big tree. It seemed that he had been waiting for her here for a long time.
"Really? Is my elder sister okay?" Li Xiaoxiao asked nervously, fearing that Si Chengxu would say something bad.
"Don't worry, she's fine. Just go up from here. There is a cave about two miles away. Si Yi is guarding there now. I haven't seen Si Wei Zhong yet, so he's waiting for you to come and see whether to rescue her directly or continue to wait for Si Wei Zhong."
"Didn't they send anyone to take the silver bills from the dilapidated temple?" When Li Xiaoxiao and Sun came out of the dilapidated temple, they put the silver bills in a very conspicuous place.
"As soon as Si Yi found your elder sister, he returned and took the silver note away. Two robbers went to the ruined temple, but went back angrily when they didn't find the silver note. You can rest assured that they didn't do anything to your elder sister." If the robbers dared to touch Li Ruolan, he would have sent people to rescue her long ago.
"Thank you." Li Xiaoxiao said this thank you sincerely. She thought she was not afraid of anyone, but she had a soft spot, and that was her family.
As cunning as Si Wei Zhong is, I really can’t imagine what would happen if there was no Si Chengxu.
In the darkness, she couldn't see Si Chengxu's expression clearly. She waited for a while before she heard his voice. It was a little different from the past, and made Li Xiaoxiao feel doted on.
"Why thank me? This is what I should do."
"That's right. You are my cousin. If you don't help me, how can you help others?" Li Xiaoxiao ignored that feeling. At this point, he was just thinking about all kinds of random things.
"It's my honor." Si Chengxu raised his voice slightly, and it was obvious that he was in a good mood.
Li Ruolan was not in danger. With Si Yi guarding there, Li Xiaoxiao felt much better. However, she still had to rescue her as soon as possible. With Li Ruolan's temper, she would probably be scared.
Fearing that she might alert the kidnappers, Li Xiaoxiao did not ride a horse. Instead, she walked side by side with Si Chengxu. Neither of them spoke. The wind blew through the forest from time to time at night.
There is a big temperature difference between morning and evening in early spring. Wearing only one piece of clothing during the day, it is still chilly at night. There is no shelter around, and Li Xiaoxiao feels a little cold. Her hand unconsciously touches her other arm in an attempt to warm herself up.
But how much warm can one hand provide? I should have worn more clothes earlier, otherwise I wouldn’t be cold now.
Just as I was thinking this, I suddenly saw Si Chengxu moving beside me. With the dim light, I could clearly see Si Chengxu taking off his clothes.
Li Xiaoxiao was shocked. What was he doing? He quickly reacted in a moment. Did Si Chengxu want to give him his clothes?
Then the next second, a piece of men's clothing with body temperature was draped directly on her body, and the wrinkles were considerately smoothed out for her.
Si Chengxu was tall to begin with, and he was wearing a long gown, which draped over Li Xiaoxiao's body, so that a long part of his gown dragged on the ground.
It was really awkward to wear such a piece of clothing. Li Xiaoxiao stopped and although she couldn't see Si Chengxu's expression clearly, she still looked in his direction.
"Cousin, aren't you cold? Give me your clothes."
"It's not cold, you can put it on." Si Chengxu's voice was the same as usual.
Maybe it was because he was tall and had a strong ability to resist cold, so he was relatively resistant to freezing. Since he had given her the clothes, she didn't need to be polite.
She put Si Chengxu's clothes on, which were loose, and lifted them up a little to her waist, folded them up and down, then tied them with a belt and made a knot.
Now the length is just right to the calf, neither too long nor too short, with long sleeves. Li Xiaoxiao pretended to take out two handkerchiefs from his arms.
In fact, they were taken out from the space and tied at the cuffs. If they wanted to rescue Li Ruolan later, the clothes would not get in the way.
After a while, Si Chengxu's clothes were on her body, which made her feel much warmer. Although they were a little ugly, they were practical. It was dark at night, who was she showing her good looks to? Was it to ghosts?
After walking for a while, Si Chengxu suddenly called Li Xiaoxiao to stop. It seemed that they were almost there: "Slow down, it's not far ahead." Si Chengxu's voice was so soft that it was almost inaudible.
"Okay." Li Xiaoxiao didn't waste any words and checked her clothes again. She was relieved only after making sure that there was nothing serious.
The two of them walked forward quietly and soon arrived at Si Yi's hiding place.
When Si Yi saw them, he didn't say anything, but pointed to a place in front of him. Following the direction of his finger, Li Xiaoxiao saw a cave.
Their current position was facing the cave, so they could see the situation inside clearly. They saw several men at the entrance of the cave, apparently playing cards.
Looking further inside, he saw a thin figure huddled in a corner. Although the distance was far, Li Xiaoxiao could recognize it at a glance. The figure was Li Ruolan.
Seeing that her clothes were intact, Li Xiaoxiao felt relieved.
Si Chengxu and Si Yi didn't say anything, waiting for Li Xiaoxiao, and finally Li Xiaoxiao came back to her senses.
"Brother Si Yi, I'm grateful to you for helping me find my elder sister today." Li Xiaoxiao said and bowed to Si Yi to express her gratitude to him.
Although Si Yi was assigned by Si Chengxu, the help he provided to her was real. She would remember this favor today in her heart. If Si Yi needed help one day, she would definitely do her best to help.
"Little girl, these were all my orders. If you want to thank someone, thank me." Si Yi didn't dare to accept such a generous gift from Li Xiaoxiao and hurriedly hid aside.
Li Xiaoxiao was not the shy one. She would have plenty of time to thank him later. Right now, she had to think about how to save Li Ruolan. But she added, "You are not a child anymore. When I have time, I will find you a beautiful wife."
I didn’t expect that my prophecy would come true. What I said today really came true.
"Cousin, I don't want to wait any longer. Since Si Wei Zhong hasn't shown up for such a long time, maybe he is just the mastermind behind this matter and is not involved in it." On the way here, Li Xiaoxiao thought about the whole matter before and after and came to this conclusion.
"Do as you say." Si Chengxu obeyed the command completely without any hesitation.
