into the bosom

Chapter 293
After a while, the surroundings were so quiet that only the chirping of insects and birds and the sound of the wind in the mountains and forests could be heard. Only then did Li Xie dare to take a long breath, and the next moment he relaxed, and sat down on the ground with his buttocks, "What's going on? What's the matter?" Even if it turned out that they were pretending to be the emperor and deliberately lured them away, since those assassins came after them, taking them down would be better than nothing, why did it end so hastily?Is the search just now called a search?Is it too perfunctory?

Xu Jiao took off the cloak with bright yellow dragon pattern from his shoulders, rolled it up, and stuffed it into the nearby grass.

Li Xi stared at it slightly, it was the first time she had seen someone treat the emperor's property like this, how could she not be surprised?
"What do you think?" After disposing of the cloak with holes in it, Xu Jiao turned his head and glanced at Li Xie. He obviously didn't say anything, but in those clear and penetrating eyes, he seemed to say everything.

Li Xi froze for a moment, and his expression became a little unnatural.

She didn't speak, but Xu Jiao didn't allow her to escape, "You also found out? These assassins seem to be extremely vicious, but their target is not us. The reason why I escaped with you is that it is safer for us. Otherwise, if you stay by the emperor's side, your sword has no eyes, and you might be accidentally injured. Because I predict that they will not hurt us, especially you."

When Xu Jiao said these words, he looked at Li Xie for a moment, seeing the blood on the little girl's face gradually faded because of her words, she knew that Li Xie understood.

After a moment of silence between the two, Xu Jiao said again, "How did you arrange it?"

"It's nothing. I just want to use the white deer to lure him here, and let people release a few beasts to frighten him." Li Xi said in a low voice, she is not a fool, she naturally knows that there are many masters around Emperor Xian, where is she? What can such a big penny do to him?
Xu Jiao didn't ask the reason. It seemed that the Li family didn't have a good impression of the Wei royal family, especially Emperor Xian. Even a little lady wanted to do something to the emperor so boldly.Isn't she afraid that her little tricks will eventually be caught by others, blamed on her, and implicated the Li family?However, thinking of the people behind her, this little girl is a bit tender, but there are many people behind her who are sophisticated and scheming, and they will never sit back and watch such a thing happen.Even if this little girl wants to solve the situation she just talked about, she can't do it by herself.She wants to use people from the Li family, how can she hide it from those who are interested?No, he used Li Xie to confuse the audience, but he planned to kill two birds with one stone.

Whether the assassin can succeed or not is a matter of debate, but a thorn has been planted between Da Wei and Bei Jie.

After Li Xing said those words, he fell silent, his face was a little gloomy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Xu Jiao was silent for a while, and stood up while patting the leaves of grass on her dress, "It's time for us to go back." Xu Jiao stretched out his hand towards Li Xie.

Li Xie's face was a little pale, he stared blankly at the hand that Xu Jiao handed over to him, and passed it after a while.

Xu Jiao grabbed her, and with a little ingenuity, pulled her up from the ground. "Let's go!"

Out of the bushes where they were hiding, they walked down the valley.Xu Jiao had seen the map of the Forbidden Garden, and it should be relatively safe to go west along the valley and bypass the place where the assassin was just met.

Because of Xu Jiao's analysis, the minds of several people were able to relax a little bit. Who knows, after only a few steps, they suddenly heard a sound, followed by a low-pitched order to their ears, " Search! Hurry up and search carefully!"

That voice was full of vigor, speaking in Beijie dialect.

Xu Jiao's heart skipped a beat, and without any warning, he confronted a group of black-clothed masked men walking towards this side not far away.

Wide-eyed and small-eyed, in a short breath, the whole valley fell silent strangely.

Li Xie was about to speak, but Xu Jiao's complexion changed, he grabbed her suddenly, yelled "Run", then turned around and ran away.

Li Ji was inexplicable, and wanted to say, isn't it that these assassins you said won't hurt us?That being the case, why run?

Before she could ask, there was the sound of handover of soldiers behind her. While being dragged by Xu Jiao, Li Xi staggered and ran forward, looking back in shock, seeing that Negative Xue and Hong Ying had already met those black-clothed men. The faces were fighting in one place.Those masked men are ruthless, how can they show mercy?In addition to being horrified, Li Xie's expression suddenly changed.

At this moment, Xu Jiao, who was running ahead, stopped suddenly. She was caught off guard, unable to stop, and bumped into Xu Jiao's back.Even though Xu Jiao's shoulders weren't considered hard, the blow still made her nose sore and tight, she raised her eyes with tears, and the last trace of blood on her face was wiped away in an instant.

But it turned out that their way was also blocked by a dozen black-clothed masked men who appeared from nowhere.

Li Xing hurriedly turned his head to look, only to see that Lingxue and Hongying were heavily surrounded, and it was impossible to kill them to help them.

"Wentao." At this moment, Xu Jiao suddenly yelled, and at the same time pulled Li Xie back quickly.Almost at the same time, the black-clothed people who had been silent at the side suddenly moved, swiping their knives and slashing towards them.

In the blink of an eye, a few darts shot towards them not far away, deflecting the knives closest to them. At the same time, almost in no particular order, three figures flew towards them from several places, and in a blink of an eye they met the ten A man in black came to fight in one place.

These three people were ordered by Xu Jiao to follow Wen Tao in the dark, and Wen Zhi and Wen Choi who had been secretly protecting Xu Jiao.

They didn't show up just now, because they were worried about Emperor Xian and the others, and they were afraid of causing unnecessary trouble.Secondly, Xu Jiao's situation is not considered critical, but now it is completely different.

"Princess, hurry up." Wen Tao shouted suddenly.

"Princess, you guys go away." These men in black are very skilled, and they are fierce in attack. Even if they fight alone, Wen Zhi and others may not be able to take advantage of it, let alone at this time, there are many enemies and we are outnumbered.Therefore, while fighting the enemy hard, Wen Tao took the time to speak anxiously.

Xu Jiao looked at the battle situation on both sides, and naturally saw that they were at a disadvantage, so he gritted his teeth, grabbed Li Xi, and the two climbed up the valley.

Wen Zhi, Neg Xue and the others tried their best to hold back these assassins and buy time for Xu Jiao and the others to escape.However, two fists were no match for many hands, two people jumped out of the ring and chased after Xu Jiao and Li Xie.

Negative snow was so anxious that she desperately wanted to catch up, but who knew that the back door was wide open, and a steel knife fell down. Even though she almost instinctively dodged to the side to avoid the vital point, she was still savagely pulled Opened a hole.She snorted, turned her head, the long knife in her hand was too late to stab out, the sharp long sword had already pierced through the chest of the man who had cut her just now.

When the man fell down, Negative Xue met Shang Hongying's calm and unwavering eyes. The moment their eyes met, Hongying turned her head and fought with the man in black again.Negative Xue gritted her teeth, raised her knife and followed, they had to fight out to protect the princess.

"These people really want to kill us, so they are not in the same group as the ones just now, right?" Li Xi urged while following Xu Jiao.

"It's not too stupid! So, if the two of us are caught up by them, I'm afraid you and my life will have to be accounted for here!" Xu Jiao replied while dragging Li Xie to run.

She has been practicing riding, archery and kung fu, and her progress is considered rapid, and her physical strength is much better, but Li Xi is different, just now she was dragged all the way by Xu Jiao, and now she is really running for her life. If you can't keep up, you stumble and fall to the ground.

Xu Jiao was forced to sit down, but fortunately she reacted in time, stabilized herself quickly, and turned around to help Li Xie up, but when she saw Li Xie's expression, her heart skipped a beat.

Li Xie's complexion was not very good, her face was pale, her lips were also white, and her face was covered with sweat. She shook her head at Xu Jiao and said, "No, I can't run anymore! Leave me alone! Go by yourself !"

Xu Jiao remembered what Zhou Qiao had said about her poor health before, and her strong temper completely made Xu Jiao forget about it.

Xu Jiao gritted his teeth, supported her on his body, supported her and took another step, "Stop talking nonsense! If you have strength, run for your life!"

Li Xing turned to look at her with an inexplicable expression.

But their speed was not comparable to the people chasing behind them, not to mention the situation now, only a short while later, they heard movement behind them.

Li Xi looked back, his expression changed immediately, and he shouted in shock, "They...they are chasing after you, let me go quickly and run for your life! If you don't run away, it will be too late!"

"Shut up!" Xu Jiao interrupted her coldly, "It's too late now." As she spoke, her eyes wandered around like lightning, and she helped Li Xi to walk quickly in a certain direction .

There was an air-conditioning sword wind coming from behind, counting the time, Xu Jiao suddenly turned around and waved, and sprinkled all the powder in the bottle in his hand, they had just reached a slightly higher low slope, A gust of mountain wind came from behind them, and as if with the help of a god, it rolled up the powder and rushed towards the people behind them.

The man was caught off guard, and his eyes, ears, mouth and nose were pierced into a lot in an instant. His movements froze, followed by "Ah Choe", "Ah Choo", and the sneezing continued, and he couldn't even open his eyes. Tears flowed, and it was hard to see.

Li Xi looked at her inexplicably, "What is that?"

Xu Jiao's expression didn't change, "I'm in charge of the spices for the roast leg of lamb that the Beijie people want."

Li Xie didn't know if he should ask her why she carried the spices for the roast leg of lamb with her, and she didn't have time to ask.

There were two people chasing them. The spicy powder that Xu Jiao sprinkled only temporarily stopped the person in front of him, but when the other person realized something was wrong, he stepped back, covered his mouth and nose at the same time, and closed his mouth. His eyes were closed, but he didn't inhale the spices. When the powdery wind passed by, a look of sternness flashed in his eyes, and he swung his knife again.

Xu Jiao hurriedly stabbed the short dagger in her hand, and she walked for a few rounds, but her kung fu was not enough in front of these killers, let alone with Li Xie.But after a while, the short dagger in her hand was thrown away and fell to the ground with a "clang".

At the same time, a bright knife light was already slashing towards them, Xu Jiao gritted his teeth, hugged Li Xie, and at the same time jumped to the side with all his strength, the two of them rolled down the short slope.

The short slope was not considered high, but it took several laps before it stopped, and as soon as it stopped, Xu Jiao hurriedly went to look at Li Xie, "Are you all right?"

Li Xing was in a mess, but shook his head.

Xu Jiao raised his head and looked at the man in black who was standing on the broken wall, looking at them with a weapon in his hand. He was about to get up, and said to Li Xie, "Let's go!"

Unexpectedly, as soon as she moved, she froze, and a heart-piercing pain came from her right ankle. She was stunned, and then she was full of despair, right?Have you ever been so unlucky?
"What's wrong?" On the contrary, Li Xie had already got up. Seeing her like this, he felt that something was wrong, so he hurried over to support her.

Xu Jiao was miserable, Jin Rooster independently looked at the masked man in black who was about to walk down the slope, and wanted to cry——

It's true that she took the script of the cannon fodder female supporting role at the beginning, but she later changed the fate of the cannon fodder, she just didn't want to die.This catastrophe after catastrophe, she has narrowly escaped death many times, does it have to be cannon fodder for her, is this old prankster willing to give up?
At this moment, Xu Jiao's heart is rejecting and collapsing.

"Let's fight him!" Li Xi suddenly shouted.

Xu Jiao looked at her pale and hopeless face, wondering if we should tell the truth and hit her, silly boy, what are we going to do?

At this moment, the man on the slope seemed to have finally seen enough of the jokes of the prey's dying struggles, and decided to clean them up, but who knew that as soon as he moved, he stopped, turned his head and ran away.

Xu Jiao and Li Xi were clasped tightly with their four hands, sweating coldly, but when they saw the man let them go and walked away, they were stunned.

But in the next moment, when they heard the faint sound of the handover of soldiers, they looked at each other blankly, and saw the joy of the rest of their lives in each other's eyes.

The sounds of fighting on the slope subsided quickly, and Xu Jiao and Li Xie looked at each other, feeling uneasy again.

At this moment, another figure appeared on the low slope, looking down the slope with its head.

Dressed in black armor, drenched in blood, with a strong murderous aura, as if stepping on a mountain of corpses and a sea of ​​blood.

Backlight stood there, looking like a killing god.

Xu Jiao was taken aback for a moment, but then she raised the corners of her lips and laughed, her heart fell firmly to the ground, and at the same time as her heart relaxed, the pain could no longer be unbearable, she let out an "ah", The golden rooster could no longer be independent, and slid to the ground.

"Where is the injury?" The man on the top of the slope was swept down like a gust of wind, almost when Xu Jiao just sat on the ground, the very familiar cold voice rang in his ears.

Xu Jiao raised his eyes, looked at those eyes like cold stars, curled his lips immediately, and cried, "It hurts! My feet hurt so much!" The voice was full of grievances, so soft that it seemed to be dripping water. .
