The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 438 Come on, hurt each other

"Master Hou, I know." A servant behind him rode to the front.

"Is there any small road around here that can lead to the official road?" Xuan Shijing asked.

The yamen servant thought about it for a while, and then said: "No, this is a road that ordinary people don't usually take. Usually, the strong people in the Qinling Mountains walk out of the secret road. If it is said to lead to the official road, it is nothing more than some roads. Better bushes to walk through, and there's a road about two miles behind us."

"That is to say, other than that place, if you want to go up the official road, you can only go forward, right out of this path?" Xuan Shijing asked.

"Exactly."

After getting this answer, Xuan Shijing didn't know what it was like. Even if he wanted to help Gao Jun, he might be powerless. After Shi Hu, Chang Le, and himself and others made such a toss, it also delayed the chase. After spending a lot of time in the army, for Gao Jun, he can take a breather.

"Master Hou." Long'er looked at Xuan Shijing.

"Go, hurry up and go back to Shangzhou!" Xuan Shijing ordered.

Only by returning to Shangzhou early can we know more information from the government and Yingtou, and then we can find a way to deal with everything that will happen next.

Gao Jun on the official road didn't know this, he just led the people under his hands on the road. Naturally, taking the official road was easier than taking the small road, but it didn't lead straight to Shangzhou City like the small road.

Now that the sky is gradually getting dark, this may not be a good thing for Gao Jun. After all, once it gets dark at night, the speed of everyone riding will definitely slow down. Regarding the situation here, Gao Jun is not as good as a leopard He and the lion are familiar with each other.

"What's the situation ahead?" Seeing the leopard bringing the people back, the lion asked hastily.

"It's possible that group of people took the head of the family to the official road from the small road behind." Leopard said: "There are a lot of horseshoe prints in front, it seems that a large group of people have just passed by, probably the people from there They came over to meet them, but they didn't meet the group of people with the head of the family, so they probably turned around and returned to Shangzhou."

"Damn!" Hearing what the leopard said, the lion cursed: "Go, turn around, let's go to the official way." Saying this, the lion turned the horse's head and was about to leave.

"Wait!" The leopard called out to the lion.

"what happened?"

"We won't be able to escape Old Man Ying's sight once we go to the official way. How do you think Old Man Ying will react when we go to the official way so blatantly? How will the government of Shangzhou City react? Don't forget the old master and Shangzhou The promise made by the governor of the city!"

According to the verbal agreement of the people at the beginning, people on the green forest road in the Qinling Mountains are not allowed to blatantly appear on the official road near Shangzhou. Earlier, Qin Zhan led people to ambush Xuan Shijing on the official road, which had already touched this road. The agreed bottom line, so there is also this reason in it, Yingtou immediately sent someone to notify Xuan Shijing after he got the news that Qin Zhan had ambushed Xuan Shijing on the official road.

"Don't care about so much. The master is now in their hands. If the master is really brought back to Shangzhou City, can Hou Ye let the master and our cottage go? Don't forget, this Marquis This time, the Lord has sealed His Majesty's order to leave Chang'an and go to Jingzhou, and he may have the authority to mobilize the soldiers of the Shangzhou city." The lion said loudly: "If you don't catch up with them, not only the head of the family, but our entire cottage, It's all over!"

Hearing this, Leopard was momentarily taken aback, feeling that something was wrong, but felt that what the lion said made sense, so he could only nod in agreement with what the lion said.

A group of people turned around and walked back, and found the entrance of the unremarkable path.

"This is it." The lion stared at this path for a long time, and then told the people around him: "Get off your horse and look at this path, and see if there are any traces of people walking by."

"Yes." The person next to him answered, then got off his horse, went straight to the entrance of the path, pushed through the bushes, and carefully inspected it.

Although the two people left behind by Gao Jun have dealt with the traces, but after all, time is running out and there are many loopholes left, so it is not difficult to find the traces of people walking on this road.

"Brother Lion, someone has just passed this road, and there are quite a few people." The man who went to investigate walked up to the lion's horse and reported back.

"No wonder." The lion snorted coldly and said, "Go! Chase!"

The lion has also eaten the weight and made up his mind. He must chase Qin Zhan back, which was ordered by the master himself before leaving the cottage.

Qin Zhan's whereabouts and safety are indeed related to the entire cottage, and the hard work of himself and his master over the years cannot be easily destroyed by Qin Zhan.

It only takes less than a quarter of an hour to walk to the official road on this small road, and then ride a horse to chase people on the official road. For these bandits, it is really like tigers entering the mountains and dragons entering the sea.

Leopards and lions took the lead in galloping ahead on horseback, followed closely by more than 50 people, and a group of people passed by, raising a cloud of dust and smoke.

It was getting dark, Gao Jun roughly estimated the time, and it was about two quarters of an hour before Shangzhou City, and the remaining distance was not far away.

After continuing on for a quarter of an hour, finally, the mighty sound of horseshoes behind him reached Gao Jun's ears.

It seems that these bandits are really chasing after him desperately in order to save Qin Zhan.

Soon, Gao Jun's people were led by the lion and leopard. After a mess of horseshoes, more than 50 people in Gao Jun were surrounded by more than [-] people from the lion and leopard.

The guards around Gao Jun drew out their long knives one after another, guarding Gao Jun's side.

Qin Zhan was riding on the horse, looking at the leopard and lion with a smile on his face.

"Master, are you okay?" Lion asked Qin Zhan.

Qin Zhan smiled and raised his bound hands and shook them in the sight of the lion: "What do you think?"

"Let go of our chief!" Leopard shouted, pointing at Gao Jun with a scimitar.

Gao Jun narrowed his eyes and said with a smile, "Do you think it's possible?"

"Brother, you are exaggerating when you say that. Now that your people are surrounded by our brothers, do you think you can escape?" the lion said aloud.

"But I still have the card of your master in my hand, don't I?" Gao Jun smiled and pulled out the long knife hanging on the side of the horse, and put the long knife on Qin Zhan's shoulder very lightly: "You surround us If you don't do anything, don't you just think that your master is in my hands? Could it be that you don't care about your master's life?"
