Chapter 152 The Swordsman
After Su Qiqi followed Shen Zhuo out, she was startled when she caught a glimpse of his face from the corner of her eye.

I saw a scar on Shen Zhuo's right face, winding from the corner of his eye to behind his ear, crawling on his face like a snake.

The scar was thick and black, and it was particularly obvious on his originally fair-skinned face. It could be seen that the injury must have been serious at the time.

Su Qiqi was fascinated, and when she was caught off guard, she suddenly met Shen Zhuo's tilted gaze.

Shen Zhuo naturally knew what she was looking at, he had a cold face and said in a bad tone.

"Why, I'm scared. It's still too late to go back now."

Su Qiqi shook her head repeatedly.

"No no no, no."

At this point, she just looked at Shen Zhuo's face and didn't notice the steps under her feet at all.

"what!"

Su Qiqi was tripped, screamed, and when she was about to fall, she subconsciously grabbed the person next to her.

Shen Zhuo staggered when she pulled him. He looked back at Su Qiqi, who looked embarrassed, and his face became even colder.

Su Qiqi hurriedly stood up.

"I'm sorry."

Shen Zhuo glanced at her and continued walking forward without saying a word.

All the way out, Su Qiqi felt a little strange. He remembered that there were many people in this group, but there was no one nearby.

Just as she was thinking, she suddenly heard the sound of fighting from around her.

The swords clashed, ping ping ping pong.

Su Qiqi's heart tightened and she immediately hid behind Shen Zhuo.

Swords were flying around, and Su Qiqi felt that this seemed to be the scene of the kidnapping again.

Looking from a distance, I could see the two parties fighting fiercely, but I couldn't tell what was going on.

Shen Zhuo only glanced at it lightly. He didn't think it was a friendly force. Now that the princess was kidnapped, this marriage was a farce.

In addition, to get rid of him, in order to kill two birds with one stone, the person behind it can be said to have taken great pains.

How could anyone really come to save them.

He pinched Su Qiqi's waist and led a horse casually.

Shen Zhuo didn't expect her to be able to ride a horse, so he just picked her up and got on the horse without giving her time to think.

He wrapped Su Qiqi in his arms, and drove away.

Su Qiqi was at Shen Zhuo's mercy from beginning to end, and the two of them ran out smoothly.

Looking at the unusually well-behaved Su Qiqi in her arms, she felt the same way when she thought about being pinned down on the haystack by that man just now.

Shen Zhuo had an evil fire coming out of nowhere and whispered in her ear pitifully.

"You are obedient, and you will do whatever I ask you to do."

His tone was so obvious, how could it be possible that Su Qiqi could not understand the meaning behind Shen Zhuo's words.

She pursed her lips, suppressed the sourness in her heart, and said no more.

……

Escape was not as easy as imagined. When the two of them had just run away, they heard the sound of horse hooves coming from behind.

Shen Zhuo speeded up and rode the horse at a fast pace. Su Qiqi felt pain in her thighs.

But even so, he was still caught up by the people behind him.

A tall man on horseback blocked the way for the two of them.

Shen Zhuo could only be forced to stop.

During this gap, all the pursuers from behind also caught up.

Not long after, Shen Zhuo and Su Qiqi were surrounded by a group of people.

When Su Qiqi saw this scene, she knew that the two of them could not fly. This number of people was more than the number of people used to kidnap them before.

She knew these people were here for her.

Su Qiqi whispered.

"Why don't you leave, they are coming for me."

Anyway, he was originally implicated by her.

As soon as he finished speaking, Shen Zhuo said something viciously with a cold face.

"To shut up!"

Su Qiqi was so frightened that she immediately fell silent.

Mu Sichen looked at the person in front of him with a fierce look on his face. Su Qiqi seemed to be hijacked in his arms.

I felt even more certain that that person was in the same group as the "bandits".

He moved his lips and said sharply.

"Catch him without a fight, and save your life."

But Shen Zhuo seemed to have heard something funny, and he suddenly laughed twice.

"Come and get it if you can."

These people were dressed as officers and soldiers, but they came blatantly to kill the princess.

What's the difference with a robber?

Shen Zhuo's cheeks were pulled together with scars, making his facial expression even more ferocious.

As soon as his laughter subsided, he took out several hidden weapons from his sleeves and shot them at Mu Sichen.

Although Mu Sichen dodged in time, he immediately became vigilant.

Before, he thought that this person was just with the group of people inside.

But now it seems that this person's skills are extraordinary, and his moves are not the same as those of the people just now.

The archers on the side were already in position, waiting for Mu Sichen to give the signal so that they could attack the thief directly.

But Mu Sichen suddenly realized that something was wrong. He saw that the Xiliang princess was holding the man's arm with her hand, as if she was very dependent on him.

Mu Sichen frowned and said calmly.

"I am Mu Sichen, the commander-in-chief of Liangzhou, and I am here to rescue the princess of Xiliang Kingdom. Who are you?"

When Su Qiqi heard that this man was here to save her, she was immediately overjoyed and wanted to answer the call.

But Shen Zhuo noticed it and pinched her waist hard.

Su Qiqi hissed and didn't dare to speak again.

Shen Zhuo looked at Mu Sichen coldly and faced him like this for a few seconds.

Then he opened his mouth and said it without any politeness.

"Why should I trust you?"

He observed Mu Sichen, and Mu Sichen was also observing him.

Mu Sichen was wondering in his mind which party this man was from. His face and accent looked like he was from Dazhou.

But he has already controlled the people in the wedding party.

Could it be…

Are they from the Zhou Dynasty in Xiliang who came with the princess this time?
Mu Sichen squinted his eyes and looked at Shen Zhuo's intact face, and found that his features were somewhat similar to Shen Xi's.

Especially the brow, it looks exactly the same when wrinkled.

A trace of surprise flashed across Mu Sichen's face after he reacted.

He took a few steps forward on his horse and spoke directly.

"Shen Zhuo?"

As soon as the words fell, everyone was stunned. Su Qiqi subconsciously tilted her head to look at Shen Zhuo.

Shen Zhuo was even more vigilant, he had never seen this person before, how could this person know himself.

His men exerted their strength and were preparing to respond to the enemy when they heard Mu Sichen speak again, his tone less tense than before.

"Chen Xi is my wife, I can take you to find her."

As soon as he heard the word Shen Xi, Shen Zhuo's expression suddenly changed.

He had a dark face, glared at Mu Sichen, and said in a sharp tone.

"impossible!"

With Shen Xi's status, even if she is not favored at home, she is still the legitimate daughter, so she will marry into a wealthy family in the capital.

How is it possible to marry far away here?
Mu Sichen has long seen that Shen Zhuo's character is suspicious and cautious, and he will never believe him in a few words.

It was not a good place to stay for a long time. He had to gain his trust quickly so that he could take people away.

Mu Sichen hesitated for two seconds and had to say.

"Believe it or not, you will know if you go and take a look. Do I need to trick you? Or do you think I can't take you down?"

Shen Zhuo's expression did not ease at all. Mu Sichen saw this in his eyes and tightened his grip on the horse's reins.

Taking advantage of Shen Zhuo's two seconds of thinking time, he stood up abruptly, stepped on the horse's back, and flew towards Shen Zhuo quickly.
