If I fail to overcome the tribulation, I can only return to the Ming Dynasty and become a prince.

Chapter 292 Giant Python
Lan Qier rode her beloved horse towards the mountain. Although the mountain road was rugged and difficult, Lan Qier's mount was also quite psychic. It seemed to know that its owner was in danger, so it was still running hard on the mountain road.

However, even so, the Void Monk slowly caught up from behind.

This made Lan Qier couldn't help but be shocked.

Her beloved horse is already the fastest horse on the Mongolian grasslands, and ordinary horses can't even smell its farts.

In the past, on the grassland, she had won countless competitions and honors with her beloved horse, and no one had ever been able to catch up with her.

Now, someone is able to catch up with his beloved horse using only his legs. How can this not make Lan Qier shocked?
Even though this was on a mountain road, and she was going up a mountain, theoretically, a horse might not necessarily run faster than someone else, but this person was a bit too scary.

This made Lan Qier feel frightened in her heart, and at the same time, she felt a sense of sadness. She felt that it might be difficult for her to escape and ascend to heaven.

But she was the daughter of the grassland after all. While Lan Qier continued to whip her beloved horse to urge it to run, she also clenched the dagger at her waist with one hand.

If something unexpected happened, she would use it to stab herself in the chest. She would never let herself become a prisoner or use to threaten Zhu Zhanchun.

Lan Qier saw clearly that the enemy was coming for her, either to kill her or to capture her as a prisoner.

The weirdo with the hat just now had the opportunity to kill her, but he didn't do it right away. Now he fell behind without haste. This is enough to show that the other party's purpose is not to kill her, but to capture her alive.

The purpose of taking her as a prisoner is naturally self-evident.

Lan Qier, who understands this, naturally knows what fate awaits her if she is really caught.

Her ancestor Genghis Khan's great queen, Borte, was kidnapped by the Merbegs shortly after her marriage to Genghis Khan. Later, Genghis Khan rose up and raised troops to defeat the Merbegs, but Borte also gave birth to his eldest son Shuchi. .

One can imagine how Borte was treated during the period of being kidnapped.

Genghis Khan could ignore the fact that Jochi was not his biological child because of his love for Bortie, but Lan Qier did not think Zhu Zhanchen would accept the same thing.

After all, the customs of the Han people are different from those of the Mongolians, and after the establishment of the Yuan Dynasty, the Mongolians' concepts of morality, chastity, etc. were also influenced by Han culture. Lan Qier did not want this to happen to her.

So if she was really likely to be captured, she wanted to know her own life and not have it tainted.

However, despite making such determination, Lan Qier was still running desperately and did not give up hope of living.

It's not just that the horse under her legs was tired, or the ground was too rough and the horse stumbled. In short, Lan Qier's beloved horse staggered and fell to its knees, causing Lan Qier to roll and fall out.

Lan Qier fell heavily to the ground and rolled down the hillside.

The Void Monk who had been following behind saw this and rushed over, seemingly wanting to hold Lan Qier.

Although the dead Lan Qier was not useless, the Nihility Monk promised to capture the shogunate's envoy after all. Because an accidental death would make him appear incompetent, so he still hoped to save Lan Qier's life.

You must know that falling from a horse is a very dangerous thing. If you are unlucky, your spine may be broken and you will have to lie in bed for a year and a half, or your lower body may be paralyzed and you will become incontinent from then on.As for the one whose head was crushed by a horse's hoof, he walked away without any pain.

However, Lan Qier didn't know if she was deliberately trying to get out of trouble, or because the terrain of this hillside was steep. Lan Qier rolled all the way and fell to a pile of rocks before she stopped.

Although he didn't fall to death, he felt pain all over his body, especially in his chest, as if he had broken his ribs.

Even his legs were covered in blood, obviously scratched by stones or other things.

Looking at the blood flowing out of her legs, Lan Qier gritted her teeth, pulled out the dagger from her waist, looked at the void monk coming down the hillside, and planned to make a last stand.

However, at this moment, she did not notice that the blood she shed on the ground was seeping into the pile of rocks little by little.

Then, a voice suddenly sounded in Lan Qier's ears: "Let me out, I can save you!"

Lan Qier then looked around alertly, but did not find where the voice came from, but the voice urged her again: "Put your blood on that spear and pull it out! Right behind you!"

After hearing the prompt from this voice, Lan Qier noticed that there was a very thick-looking spear stuck in the pile of rocks.

It was not so much a spear as it was a pillar of bronze about the thickness of her arm.

She was a little confused about what it was, but looking at the void monk getting closer and closer, Lan Qier gritted her teeth, dipped her palm in the blood on her leg, and then held the copper rod. Zhu, endured the pain and pulled it out of the ground bit by bit.

Just the moment Lan Qier felt the copper pillar loosen, she heard the voice that spoke before cheering: "I'm out!"

Immediately, the ground shook and the rocks beneath her feet exploded, and a green figure rushed out.

Just when Lan Qier looked at the flying rocks and thought she was about to be smashed to death, the spear in her hand that looked like a copper pillar suddenly emitted a burst of light, blocking the rocks and protecting Lan Qier. The light slowly penetrated into her body, making her feel less painful. Even the bleeding on her legs slowly stopped.

Only at this moment did Lan Qier have the mood to turn her gaze to the cyan figure that flew out of the pile of rocks just now.

It was a giant green python, a giant python that was as thick as a water tank and more than ten feet long. It felt like it could swallow a war horse just by looking at its head.

What is particularly eye-catching is that this giant python has two huge bulges on its head, which looks like it is about to grow horns.

Obviously, this is no longer an ordinary giant python, but a monster that is about to turn into a dragon.

The giant python glanced at Lan Qier, and then noticed the void monk who had stopped in his tracks. Without hesitation, he flicked his tail and slapped the void monk who was so arrogant just now to the ground.

And it itself raised its huge head in front of Lan Qier, lowered its head and looked at her while spitting out words from time to time, as if it was tasting the smell of Lan Qier.

Immediately, the giant python made the same sound that Lan Qier heard just now: "You smell like a real dragon!"
