Chapter 1493

Baili Xia did not answer, and hurriedly asked, “What are you doing here?”

“Miss Sima sent me to gather medicinal herbs, saying that Nangong Yun needed them,” Guisu replied truthfully.

“Why does she want you to gather herbs?” Firstly, Guisu was not familiar with these things at all, and secondly, this was Bei Family’s territory.

Even if herbs were to be gathered, it should be done by Bei Family themselves.

How could they let an outsider do it?

Baili Xia’s heart trembled, damn, it seems that Sima Liuyue deliberately arranged for Guisu to be here.

If that’s the case, then the traces on the road must have been disguised by others, intentionally leading her here.

“I don’t know why either, but this matter is not difficult, so I didn’t refuse.”

Guisu looked at her, with doubt in his eyes, “Is there something wrong?”

“Did you have any conflict with Sima Liuyue?” Baili Xia asked instead.

“No,” Guisu shook his head, “What’s going on?”

Perhaps noticing Baili Xia’s change of expression, Guisu’s voice sank, “A trap?”

Baili Xia grasped his large hand urgently, “We’ve been set up, let’s get out of here quickly, I’ll explain as we go!”

She wanted to explain to Guisu, but there was no time.

Baili Xia grabbed Guisu’s hand and started to head down the hill.

After just two steps, Guisu suddenly halted, and said in a deep voice, “It’s too late.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly scooped up Baili Xia and sprinted towards the top of the dirt mound.

Before Baili Xia could react, intense gunfire erupted behind them.

Guisu, holding Baili Xia, dove over the dirt mound and landed on the ground.

After setting Baili Xia down, Guisu coldly asked, “Who are these people?”

“They should be Nangong Yun’s people,” Baili Xia finally understood why the journey here felt like they were being led deliberately.

So this was Nangong Yun’s real aim, she wanted to capture all of them.

But, this could not have been done by Nangong Yun alone.

Sima Liuyue must be involved, but why does Sima Liuyue want Guisu dead?

Guisu frowned and let out a cold snort.

Although he didn’t know where Nangong Yun got the guts to do this,

Based on Guisu’s years of experience, he knew that these people didn’t plan to leave them any chance of survival today.

He looked up towards the bottom of the dirt mound and saw over a dozen black-clad men advancing aggressively towards them.

Perhaps because they feared Guisu’s strength, they weren’t advancing particularly quickly.

But they weren’t far away, it would only take a few minutes for them to reach.

“I’ll notify Uncle… Brother You first.”

In the face of danger, Baili Xia instinctively thought of notifying Uncle to save her.

But suddenly remembered, this was Bei Miao, and Uncle was not here.

Now, only Bei Tianyou could save her.

Baili Xia reached for her phone, only to be dumbfounded.

It might have happened when Guisu was rolling on the ground with her earlier and hit a rock.

The phone screen was shattered and completely inoperable now.

“Let’s go.” Guisu was the first to react, pulling Baili Xia towards the other side of the dirt mound.

With no way to communicate, they could only try to evade for now.

These people came prepared.

Today, a tough battle was inevitable.

Since no one else could help them, they could only rely on themselves.

This place was full of similar dirt mounds, like small hills, covered with low herbs, offering no real hiding places.

Guisu could only keep pulling Baili Xia along, trying to put as much distance between them and those people as possible.
