Be Attacked and Be Rescued (2)
Two dark figures rushed in, swearing loudly . Minglan was ready for this and cooperated with Dangju to pull the rope lying on the ground hard and trip them up . With a crash, the one in front fell down first . By the dim light from outside, Xiaotao mustered all her strength and hit the man on the head with the iron pan . The man let out a low cry of pain and fainted .
The other pirate staggered but balanced himself at once . When he saw a roomful of girls, he opened his mouth and wanted to shout for help . A maid immediately lifted a wooden bench and swung it on him . The pirate gave a choked cry, shaking like a leaf . Then another maid jumped up and knocked him down . Minglan leapt up with a big stride and stepped on his chest, and then stabbed him in the chest with the sharp hairpin . Blood gushed out like a stream . He was going to utter a shrill cry but his mouth was immediately crammed with plant ash by a maid . Then he was struck many times over the head before he fell into a coma . A disgusting smell of blood filled the cabin .
Dangju felt nausea, but she held back and gently closed the door . Minglan instructed the girls to bind the two unconscious pirates tightly with ropes and stuffed their mouths with rags, preventing them from making sounds . After that, seven girls in the cabin, including Minglan, looked at one another . After defeating the two pirates, they regained their courage, fear in their eyes replaced by excitement now .
After a peal of noise above them, things quieted down . A few words came through vent-hole, “There’s no one here! Go elsewhere to find them . ” The girls’ faces beamed with joy . Minglan also heaved a sigh of relief . But suddenly there was a rough shout from above, loud and clear . The girls p.r.i.c.ked up their ears and listened carefully, “… These women said that their lady was still on the s.h.i.+p . Come on, guys . Let’s go to the lower hold and catch them . There are also several beautiful young girls . We can have a hot night with them . ”
Minglan turned pale . Luzhi began to curse, “d.a.m.n it! Lady, how dare they betray you!” Minglan couldn’t wait any longer . She barked at the girls, “Take off your coats and jump into the river!”
Now it was early winter . The girls all wore thick satin cotton-padded coats . They undressed the coats and jumped into the river one by one . Outside, there came a loud noise . The heavy footsteps came closer to the cabin, which panicked the girls . So they threw themselves into the river quickly .
Minglan felt biting cold as soon as she entered the water . Fortunately, it was not midwinter now . She heard shouts of cursing, “s.h.i.+t! They have jumped into the river . Hurry up! We should catch them . ” Minglan immediately began to swim with steady strokes . She tried her best to ignore the chill and exerted all her strength to swim towards the opposite bank . Behind her some pirates jumped into the water with splashes . A burst of girl’s scream ensued . Someone must be caught . Minglan took in a large gulp of air and sank under the water, trying not to let her head expose on the surface of the water .
Just a few seconds later, an arm wrapped around her waist from behind . Minglan was greatly frightened and immediately stretched out her legs to kick backward . But the person behind her was dexterous and quick in action, who turned over to Minglan’s side and pressed some specific points of her arms . Minglan felt her arms aching and limp at once . Then the person held her closely . They were so close that Minglan realized right away that it was a woman .
The woman flung her legs several times and surfaced with Minglan . Toward the cold wind, Minglan took a deep breath . And the next second the woman grasped Minglan’s chin and turned her face over . Minglan got a pain and hissed slightly . Then the woman shouted loudly with joy, “Eureka! I’ve found her!”
Minglan regained her strength and immediately thrust her elbow into the woman’s chest . The woman gave a cry of pain . But she quickly responded and pressed the acupoints on Minglan’s arms harder . Obviously, she had studied kung fu, and it was easy for her to control Minglan . She smiled, “Don’t be afraid . I’m here to save you . You are the sixth lady of Sheng family, right? They told me that you had two dimples… Hey, come on! I am here!”
Just when she finished the sentence, Minglan heard the sounds of oars flapping against the water before she showed a surprised look . A boat with several big lanterns hanging came to them . The woman was a good swimmer . She seized Minglan round the waist, lifted her up and pressed her against the side of the boat . Then a pair of big strong hands caught her by the shoulders and pulled her up .
As soon as she left the water, the cold wind chilled her to the bone as if there were numerous needles stinging her body . But soon someone wrapped a thick cotton quilt around her thoroughly . The woman in the water also climbed onto the boat . Through her own messy wet hair, Minglan saw a bear-like man covering her with the quilt .
Minglan was s.h.i.+vering all over . The boat was illuminated by the lanterns . She quickly looked around and saw several men standing on the boat . The man, who was busy wrapping the quilt around her, was tall and strong . He wore only an old black gown with his beard covering almost two-thirds of his face . There were no ornaments on him, but Minglan got a feeling of familiarity from his deep eyes .
Minglan blinked a few times and recognized him . A thrill of joy overwhelmed her and she cried out, “Uncle!”
At this moment, she finally understood the feeling when a victim, who was surrounded by a group of malicious hooligans in a dark alley, was rescued by the police in time, even though the police had fined her for no reason before .
Gu Tingye’s eyes lit up . Minglan couldn’t see the expression on his face clearly because of his bushy beard . He said in a low voice, “Can you recognize me?”
Minglan felt it strange that she could hear clearly every word that he said . In reality, there was a great noise over the river . The sounds of shouting, fighting and wailing flew up around them . She replied hastily, “Of course I can . You are my savior . ”
Minglan was worried about her maids, such as Dangju, Xiaotao . So she came up to Gu Tingye and begged with a lovely smile on her white delicate face, “Uncle, my maids are still in the river . Please get them out of water . It’s so cold, and I’m afraid that they will catch a cold . So please hurry up . ” Minglan always behaved like a likable, innocent girl when she asked for help .
Gu Tingye’s eyes darkened, a gleam of anger flas.h.i.+ng through them . The faint light reflected off the river surface creating a flowing luminescence in his eyes . He seemed to want to give Minglan a glare, but finally held it back .
