Traveling through: The down-and-out beauty refuses to be cannon fodder

Chapter 41
There are many pedestrians on the official road, most of them are refugees with luggage and families.Xu Chun and Fang Yuanzhi, who were riding a horse and wearing peasant clothes, looked a little special.

Before the sky became dark again, five or six pedestrians on horseback passed them.Fang Yuanzhi noticed that some of them looked at Xu Chun and her sideways.

Xu Chun didn't stop, walked forward for a while, reined in his horse, and led Fang Yuanzhi onto a small road.

Seeing this, Fang Yuanzhi asked, "Have you met your enemy?"

Xu Chun's eyes darkened slightly, and he said lightly: "Be careful."

The two didn't walk for too long, and they drove their horses into a forest.

Fang Yuanzhi looked at the road in the direction he came from, and saw that there was no movement, so he couldn't help but glance at Xu Chun and said, "Why did you provoke so many enemies?"

How could the officials offend so many people when they were in charge of the general affairs of the big family?

Xu Chun didn't answer, but cut a few sticks with a dagger, one end of which was pointed.

Judging by the calm and composed appearance, it seems that this kind of thing is commonplace.

Fang Yuanzhi pursed her lips.

After almost an hour, there was the sound of horseshoes on the road.

Xu Chun approached Fang Yuanzhi and said in a low voice, "Go deep into the forest and stay away!"

"Why don't you hide away?"

Fang Yuanzhi didn't listen to him, and climbed to a nearby big tree to hide in the canopy.

Although her kung fu is not as good as Xu Chun's, and she doesn't carry a weapon, she has some kung fu after all.Although Xu Chun jumped into the flood, although it was a bit silly, it was to save her after all.

Now that he is going to meet his enemies, how can she hide away and be alone?

Xu Chun also went up the tree and hid in the canopy.

The sound of hooves gets closer and then goes away.

Just as Fang Yuanzhi was about to get down from the tree, he heard the sound of horseshoes again.

Not long after, several people rode into the woods.

There were six people in total, all men riding tall horses and holding weapons.

Someone shouted: "There are horses over there, they should be nearby!"

Before the words were finished, someone came down from the tree with a stick, and the stick hit the head of the horseman who fell last.

The rider on horseback was not a good stubble either, he turned his head and steered his horse forward at the same time, avoiding the sharp attack.

Before he could turn around to fight back, a heavy blow knocked him off his horse.

Xu Chun landed on the man's horse as lightly as a swallow, a cold light flashed over his body, and the man who fell from the horse's back screamed in pain.

Xu Chun then hooked his foot on the stirrup, picked up the big ring knife of the fallen man sideways, and aimed at another nearby man to chop it off.

The other five riders turned their horses and headed towards Xu Chun.

Fang Yuanzhi no longer hid, and followed Xu Chunfei's example of flying down and kicking a rider, landing on the horse the man was riding.

Although she also had a dagger, she didn't manage to hit it with one blow, nor did she grab other people's weapons, which made her relatively disadvantaged.

Fortunately, because of her appearance, two of the five people who originally went to Xu Chun came to Fang Yuanzhi, sharing a lot of pressure on Xu Chun.

The man kicked to the ground by Fang Yuanzhi got up and quickly slashed at Fang Yuanzhi's horse's leg with a long sword in his hand.

Fang Yuanzhi was good at riding, so he rode his horse quickly to dodge.

When Fang Yuanzhi's pursuers were about to surround her, Xu Chun had already dealt with the other two and rushed towards Fang Yuanzhi.

Three against two, Xu Chun and Fang Yuanzhi were at a disadvantage because Fang Yuanzhi didn't have a weapon in hand.

But after Xu Chun threw Fang Yuanzhi a spear, the situation changed.

Fang Yuanzhi danced the spear so that dragons and snakes flew, wrapping an enemy so that he was powerless to fight back.

Xu Chun originally had a one-on-two match, but the man on the ground changed his mind temporarily and charged at Fang Yuanzhi.

Fang Yuanzhi's horse's front leg was cut, and when the horse knelt, her center of gravity was unstable and she was about to fall forward.

Fang Yuanzhi clamped the horse's back tightly with his legs, turned sideways and returned the gun, throwing the man on the ground to the ground.

The person who was fighting her was also a long spear, so she took the opportunity to give it away with both hands, Fang Yuanzhi felt a sharp pain in her thigh, and was actually stabbed!

She didn't care much, raised her gun and continued to fight against the person who stabbed her.

After going back and forth for dozens of times and fighting to the death, Xu Chun stabbed the man in the chest from behind.

Fang Yuanzhi couldn't hold on any longer and fell to the ground.Vaguely, she heard Xu Chun anxiously shouting: "Fang Yuanzhi, Fang Yuanzhi!"

It seemed that something was stuffed into her mouth, and she swallowed it directly, without thinking about tasting it.

As if in a long and painful dream, she shuttled back and forth between her past life and this life, and all kinds of past events flooded her mind.

Fang Yuanzhi cried out in pain: "Are you going to die? I haven't enjoyed life, I haven't even been in love, I'm not reconciled!"

Fang Yuanzhi finally woke up, and saw a pair of star eyes covered with red bloodshot eyes, which was a bit incongruous with that handsome face like a knife.

"You have been poisoned, and you need to recuperate in this clinic for a few days, and you won't be able to return to Suzhou for the time being."

After two days of feeding, they still set off.The medicine in this clinic is simple, the medicinal materials are limited, and the level of detoxification is also very average.

Fang Yuanzhi was still very weak, he wobbled on the horse and almost fell off the horse several times.Xu Chun wanted to tie her to a horse, but because of her leg injury, he couldn't do it.

Xu Chun frowned.

Fang Yuanzhi said modestly: "Put me here, you go back to Suzhou first. Let my family come and pick me up..."

"Walk together."

Xu Chun simply tied her to his back, and the two of them rode together and headed towards Suzhou Mansion.

The strong jolt caused the wound on Fang Yuanzhi's leg to open again, and she could feel blood flowing down the leg of her trousers, but she still didn't say anything.

During the break, Xu Chun found that her injured thigh was dyed bright red. He gave her a vicious look, then tore off the top of his underwear, sprinkled Fang Yuanzhi's wound with gold wound medicine, and tied it tightly.

Fang Yuanzhi smiled wryly to himself: "I am a former medical soldier, how could I die from such a minor trauma?"

After galloping around for a long time, I finally saw the city of Suzhou from afar.

It was still raining lightly overhead, the road was muddy, and there were more and more pedestrians, most of whom were fleeing civilians.

Fang Yuanzhi kept his arms around Xu Chun's waist, and pressed his face against Xu Chun's back wet with rain and sweat. There was a man's unique sweaty smell at the end of his nose, but it was not unpleasant.

A large number of people gathered outside the city of Suzhou, most of them were family members with luggage, and their faces were solemn.From a distance, there are tens of thousands of people in the mountains and plains.

They finally squeezed through the crowded and noisy crowd and approached the city gate, only to find that the city gate of Suzhou Mansion was closed tightly, and the suspension bridge over the moat had also been closed.

It was still dark at this time, so why closed the city gate?
Xu Chun pushed his horse to the edge of the moat, and shouted at the soldiers defending the city: "I call you General Mo to come here!"

After a while, a group of people in armor appeared on the top of the city gate, who seemed to look like generals.

After a few shouts, a hanging basket was lowered from the city wall, and half of the suspension bridge was lowered, hanging in the air.

"My lord, the suspension bridge can't be fully released, you can jump over it yourself."

There are daring people around who have tried to jump to reach the suspension bridge, but they have never been able to.

Even if someone has learned martial arts, it is still difficult to jump up from the height of two or three floors.

Xu Chun checked the firmness of the rope that bound Fang Yuanzhi, and asked again, "Can you do it yourself?"

Fang Yuanzhi said: "I will do my best."

Xu Chun counted to three in a low voice, and the two jumped up at the same time, borrowing strength from their horses, they reached the suspension bridge at the same time.
