Chapter 155: Chapter 155: Falling into Water
Legend has it the history of this bridge can be traced back to the founding of the nation three hundred years ago.
It really is an old tale.
This precarious bridge, barely maintained, now suddenly bore the weight of over ten thousand people, causing the entire bridge to emit a teeth-gritting creaking sound from the wood.
Even more suffocating was the fact that, apart from the refugees, the Xuanwei Army had also caught up.
They, with clear intent, carried Silver Spears and were all charging towards them.
Bai Junjun cursed her luck.
If only she had left yesterday, their very first attempt at Flying and Hiding had just been spotted by that young officer.
At first, the young officer, seeing the swarm of refugees, did not know how to distinguish who he was looking for, but Bai Junjun, once she flew, highlighted her abilities immediately.
Who else could oppose Mighty Hall if not this group capable of Flying and Hiding?
The answer was obvious.
Therefore, Zhou Tao pursued them recklessly.
Bai Junjun kept hearing screams and splashes behind her, and when she looked back, it was those Xuanwei soldiers throwing the refugees blocking their path into the water.
The refugees, caught off guard, were tossed into the water like dumplings.
However, the water was deep and swift, and those who fell were soon submerged or swept away.
The Xuanwei soldiers advanced rapidly. The Qiu family’s three brothers tried hard to fend off the pursuers, but how could they, mere ordinary people, withstand the well-trained Xuanwei soldiers?
Bai Junjun instructed Bai Sasa, "Don’t look back, just keep running forward."
After speaking, she pulled out her Dagger and charged back.
But as soon as she turned back, she saw a scene that made her eyes split with rage.
Aunt Liu, carrying Xiao Shan and lingering at the back, was now under attack as a Xuanwei soldier raised a large sword and fiercely swung it down her back. Aunt Liu’s body stiffened but did not move, yet another pursuer thrust a long spear at her, causing Aunt Liu to finally twist her body and fall off the bridge.
"Aunt Liu!!!"
Bai Junjun’s eyes turned red as she threw the Dagger in her hand, which, like a Boomerang, traced an arc and precisely slashed across the necks of six or seven pursuers, including the soldier who had knocked Aunt Liu off the bridge.
Simultaneously, Bai Junjun leaped down to grab the falling Aunt Liu, and the combined weight of two adults and a child made them plummet swiftly.
Bai Junjun looked back, activated her Special Ability to make the weed clinging under the bridge grow rapidly, and quickly grabbed onto this wild weed, barely stopping their descent.
However, the roots of the weed ultimately could not hold for long, and they began to slowly detach from the bridge.
Bai Junjun once again activated her Special Ability to make the roots cling to the bridge surface.
At that moment, however, she felt Aunt Liu’s grip on her hand slowly loosening.
"Hold onto me," Bai Junjun gritted her teeth and shouted at her.
But Aunt Liu, lifting a pale face with tearful eyes, revealed a smile uglier than crying and said to Bai Junjun, "Please, Miss Junjun, look after Xiao Shan for me."
After speaking, Aunt Liu forcefully pushed Xiao Shan into Bai Junjun’s arms, and like a withering flower, slowly fell towards the river.
"Mom!!! Mom!!!"
Xiao Shan struggled violently in Bai Junjun’s arms.
However, Aunt Liu quickly fell into the water, splashing a white wave and then disappearing without a trace.
Bai Junjun stared blankly at where Aunt Liu had disappeared, tears welling up in her eyes.
At this moment, Xiao Shan in her arms struggled intensely.
Witnessing his mother fall into the water was a shock not even an adult could withstand, let alone a little child.
"Mom! Mom! I want to go find my mom!"
Xiao Shan’s struggle snapped Bai Junjun back to her senses,
She had to make sure the weed didn’t fall off while also taking care of the agitated Xiao Shan in her arms.
