Chapter 167 Attacked Again
Song Qingyou held the dagger that Feng Li gave her, thinking of going back to show off to Xiao Qishu, but she didn't notice that the sky was getting darker.

Although a road was built between the county town and the mine to transport the forged things, in fact, it was just artificially widening the traces that were often stepped on, and it would still become difficult to walk when it was dark.

Song Qingyou looked up and saw that the sky was almost completely dark, and he couldn't help but quicken his pace.

Swish swish.

Because his attention was on the road, Song Qingyou didn't notice some uniform footsteps.

Under the cover of the sky and vegetation, a group of men in black were quietly approaching Song Qingyou.

The pace was getting faster and faster, but suddenly Song Qingyou stopped and looked around, feeling like something was staring at her.

However, it was dark all around, and the moon hadn't even come out at this time.

Taking a deep breath, he pulled out the dagger to embolden himself, and Song Qingyou's footsteps were faster than before.

suddenly!

Song Qingyou felt her feet go soft, and then the world began to spin. When she finally found her balance, she found that the bottom of the cave was full of sharp wooden stakes.

"Oh shit!"

Song Qingyou couldn't help but uttered a curse word, and without thinking, she pierced the dagger in her hand into the wall of the cave. Although the dagger went in smoothly, she was still sliding down because of the soft soil.

Seeing the distance between him and the wooden pile getting closer, Song Qingyou could only pray to stop as soon as possible.

wow la la la~
With the dirt on top of his head and the wooden stake under his feet, Song Qingyou's heart was going to jump in his throat. He didn't expect that he survived such a deep waterfall, but he was going to be pierced by this wooden stake.

Bang!Song Qingyou suddenly felt numb in the hand holding the dagger and then lost consciousness in his entire arm, but fortunately, the falling trend stopped.

Song Qingyou looked down, hey, it's pretty good, it's only one foot away from the stake.

Using the hanging posture, Song Qingyou used his toes to dig out a place where he could borrow strength, changed his hand with difficulty, and then slid to the bottom bit by bit, clinging to the cave wall.

After turning around at the bottom of the hole, there was a click. Song Qingyou pushed aside the fallen leaves on the surface and found a piece of bone. She roughly looked at it, which should be a small animal such as a rabbit, and then looked at the wooden pile, which was stained with stars. red, it seems that this should be a trap set up by a nearby hunter.

Then Song Qingyou looked up again, and she roughly estimated that it must be at least two or three meters tall. She began to think about the possibility of digging a ladder with a dagger to go up, otherwise it would be strange for a person to see through the dark and windy night. .

Just as he said, Song Qingyou first cut off the tips of the wooden stakes near the cave wall. On the one hand, they could be used as tools, and on the other hand, they would prevent them from being injured if they fell accidentally.

After making some gestures, he started to dig the first level, stepped on it, and stepped on it. It was not bad. Just when he was about to dig the second level, Song Qingyou seemed to hear someone's voice vaguely.

The first thing Cui Xizuo did after returning to the capital was to prepare to enter the palace and report the results of the investigation to the emperor. However, he was told that the emperor's dragon body was in bad condition and that all matters should be submitted in writing to the second prince.

After he returned to the house, he was told by the elders in the family to pay more attention during this period, not to speak recklessly and to be careful with his words and deeds, so he got the letter from Xiao Qishu.

After seeing the letter, Xiao Qishu immediately thought of the masked man that day, and went to the mine to find Song Qingyou with his sword in hand. Unfortunately, it was too late. Feng Li told others that he had already left.

Song Qingyou only heard a voice vaguely, and she wasn't sure who it was. In short, it's more important to call for help first: "Is there anyone? Help!"

Um?Xiao Qishu stopped in his tracks, but there were only insects chirping around.

"Help!"

Song Qingyou shouted while looking for something to ignite in the space.

Xiao Qishu held his breath and listened carefully, and found that someone was indeed calling for help, trying to determine the location, "Is there anyone?"

Soon, Song Qingyou lit the fallen leaves at the bottom of the cave with saltpeter, and the smoke gradually rose, and Xiao Qishu also quickly discovered the fire.

When Xiao Qishu came to the entrance of the cave, he recognized Song Qingyou at a glance, and tore a vine from a nearby tree to pull her up.

"How do you—"

Before Xiao Qishu could finish his concerned words, he saw a ray of light in his peripheral vision, and reflexively pulled Song Qingyou to fall back, then stood up and drew his sword to block the second sword.

Before Song Qingyou could recover from the shock of falling into the hole and being stabbed to the core, she was surrounded by a group of men in black again.

This time Xiao Qishu was already prepared and took the initiative to attack, stabbing the man in black with his sword.

The reason why the two of them were so embarrassed last time was because Xiao Qishu had not healed from his old injury when he was attacked by a sneak attack. Now that Xiao Qishu has fully recovered, these people are not his opponents at all, but half of them have been killed in three or five rounds. fell to the ground.

Seeing that he couldn't deal with Xiao Qishu, the man in black shifted his target to Song Qingyou.

It's a pity that Song Qingyou today is different from the past. Seeing two men in black touch over, they quietly found out the medicinal powder hidden in their sleeves, and sprinkled it out with a brush.

puff puff!
In just two seconds, the two men in black fell straight down.

At this time, Xiao Qishu also took care of the remaining few people, rushed to Song Qingyou's side and saw such a scene and couldn't help sighing: "Amazing!"

"That's it!" Song Qingyou was very proud, "These two are only temporarily paralyzed and not dead, maybe something can be pried out of their mouths."

"No!" Xiao Qishu immediately stepped forward and prepared to remove the two's jaws, but unfortunately it was too late. When the masks were removed, both of them bled to death.

In the dark, Xiao Qishu felt that one of them was very familiar, so he searched the corpse, and finally found a nameplate on the chest, which was really an acquaintance——the emperor's personal bodyguard deputy commander, who also secretly Guard's leadership.

Song Qingyou waited for a long time, and couldn't help asking, "Did you find anything?"

Xiao Qishu handed the nameplate to her and said: "Cui Xizhuo wrote me a letter after returning home. The situation in Beijing and China has changed. Your Majesty is not in good health and ignores the government. Now the second prince is in charge of the country. He also said that someone might It's not good for us, so I came to you immediately."

Song Qingyou looked at the nameplate, and quickly guessed that the identities of these people were related to the palace, so he said, "So, were those sent by the palace last time?"

Xiao Qishu denied her speculation, "Although those people were well-trained last time, their skills were much worse than those from the palace, but I guess they must have something to do with the people in the capital."

"Tsk!" Song Qingyou looked Xiao Qishu up and down and joked: "I can't tell you, kid, you are so favored by the nobles in Beijing."
