Chapter 15 The Way of Escape
Chapter 15 The Way of Escape
Because everyone hadn't slept all night and their spirits had been highly tense, both sides were extremely exhausted from the confrontation at this moment, especially Yang Gui and Ju Deyuan, who were held hostage, were tired and flustered, and their emotions were on the verge of collapse.The night was the thickest at dawn, and the torches they had planted on the cliff had been burned out, and the light suddenly dimmed.Captain Xiang, who was in charge for the time being, had an idea, and took the opportunity to say: "You two, I'll ask someone to come over and replace the torch with a new one."
As he spoke, he ordered people to fetch new torches and put them on for Chen Nian and the two of them. After a while, a man with the appearance of an officer and a man in black came out from behind the crowd holding torches and walked towards the crack of the cliff. They gave way to him one after another, Captain Xiang, who had been standing in front all this time, retreated back without showing any trace.
Chen Nian saw something strange in it, hurriedly shouted: "No need!"
The two people holding the torches turned a deaf ear to it, staring at Chen Nian who was still slowly walking towards the crack of the cliff, and said: "This girl, don't worry, we just want to change the torches for you two."
Chen Nian guessed that there seemed to be something wrong with the torch, and it might have ignited some kind of medicine, so he pressed the dagger in his hand to Yang Gui's neck in front of him, and shouted in a cold voice: "Stop, put the torch in your hand away. Throw it away, and I will kill these two people if I take another step forward!"
The man in black stopped when he heard the words, but the officer Xu saw that Lu Xiao, who was holding Jude Yuan hostage, remained silent, so he took another step forward thinking that it was easier for him to deceive him.Unexpectedly, Lu Xiao's silence was not because he was easy to deceive, but because he had already lost his patience in waiting, and he didn't even bother to say another word.Before the sole of the officer's foot touched the ground, Jude suddenly heard a scream from the distance. Blood spurted out from the side of his neck, which had already been cut off by the scimitar in Lu Xiao's hand.
The incident happened suddenly, not to mention that all the officers and soldiers surrounding the cliff were stunned, even Chen Nian was dumbfounded for a moment.She just said a threat, but she never expected that Lu Xiao would be so "obedient", and the other party took another step, and he really killed Ju Deyuan with a knife.
After a while, those officers and soldiers were the first to react.The officer was killed right in front of his eyes, all the officers and soldiers no longer cared about the life of the mysterious chief executive, they all roared and rushed to kill him.Chen Nian was startled before he could react, Lu Xiao who was beside him gave Yang Gui a sharp knife again, then grabbed her collar by the back of her neck, stepped hard on the cliff, and led her to level the ground. It was raised more than ten feet high and hung on the cliff.
A sharp arrow flew past the two of them, Lu Xiao swung Chen Nian onto his back with one arm, and shouted, "Hold tight!"
In his panic, Chen Nian didn't care too much, he quickly clamped himself on his back with his limbs, watching him still jumping left and right between the narrow cliffs like an ape, it seemed that he wanted to follow the cliff. Fleeing up the wall, he hurriedly shouted: "You can't go up! You'll be shot like a hedgehog!"
If it is said that the other party had some scruples when they were down there because they were afraid of accidentally hurting their own people, and now the two of them suddenly go up, they will become live arrows.Sure enough, the officers and soldiers below all adjusted their direction and drew their bows to shoot upwards.A lot of the scimitar in Lu Xiao's hand fell away, and some of it brushed against the sides of the two of them.
Chen Nian's shoulder was almost hit by an arrow, and the sharp arrow pierced through his clothes and grazed his skin tightly, and blood would be seen if he moved a little further inward.She was annoyed that it was Lu Xiao who was stunned that caused the two of them to fall into such a passive state. Seeing that he didn't listen to her advice and still insisted on climbing up, she said angrily: "Lu Xiao, if you want to die, don't take me with you!" , there is no way out here!"
Lu Xiao was stunned for a moment, taking advantage of the night to temporarily hide his body behind a protruding rock, then turned his head and asked Chen Nian, "Why? Didn't you get out after climbing to the top of the cliff?"
Chen Nian was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, and pointed to the still dark "line of sky" above his head to show him, and said helplessly: "This place is hundreds of feet high, and it gets steeper as you go up. The rock wall is as smooth as a mirror. There is no place to stay, even if you are reincarnated as an ape, you will not be able to climb up!"
With just such a short delay, the "One Line of Sky" was already full of officers and soldiers, even if the two wanted to go on, they could no longer go on.If he didn't remember the kindness that he came here to save him, Chen Nian would have the heart to strangle Lu Xiao to death.
Lu Xiao sneered lowly, and said, "It's not up to you whether you can climb up or not!"
After he finished speaking, he put the scimitar in his hand away from his waist, found the narrowest part of the cliff, supported the two sides of the cliff with his hands and feet, and climbed up quickly.Because the two of them had already climbed high at this time, and the night was dark, it was impossible to see their figures clearly only by relying on the torches below. There was no way for anyone to do so, so they had to block the exits at both ends, standing at the bottom of the cliff and yelling and cursing.
In normal times, Chen Nian would definitely not be willing to take advantage of his tongue, but now he lost his temper and laughed at himself: "Listen, I have scolded the eighth generation of ancestors, do you know what your ancestor's name is?"
Lu Xiao paused for a while, tilted his head to think for a moment, and then replied, "Taiwan."
Chen Nian was so angry that he was speechless, so he simply shut his mouth tightly and stopped speaking.Lu Xiao didn't speak any more, just climbed up in a muffled voice.Chen Nian lay on his back, and suddenly remembered that day Feng Junyang also carried her up the short cliff like this. Safety.Zhaobi Mountain was close to Feilong Xing, and it had been specially cleared by Qingfeng Village. Large wild animals rarely went there. As long as he was not discovered by his opponents, his safety for the night would not be a big problem.At dawn, his people will find a way to find him, so she doesn't have to worry about it.
When she suddenly fell silent like this, Lu Xiao still felt that his ears were clean at first, but after a while he was not used to it, so he couldn't help asking her: "What are you thinking?"
Chen Nian was dazed, and withdrew his thoughts from Feng Junyang, and taunted him when he heard the words: "I think we can't hide our figure until dawn, are you planning to spread your wings and fly out under the eyes of everyone, or just leave it at that?" Build a nest on this cliff, and settle down here."
Lu Xiao didn't like to deal with such a treacherous and slippery person like her. If Mu Zhan hadn't agreed to protect her, he would have left her there long ago. Hearing her say something like this now, although he doesn't understand the profoundness of Chinese, he still I also heard that this is definitely not a good word, and nine out of ten are scolding him.
He snorted coldly with disdain, and said angrily: "If you want to scold someone, just scold, what else is there to do?"
He was talking in his mouth, but his hands and feet didn't stop, and after a while, he climbed seven or eight feet high again.The cliffs on both sides narrowed abruptly from here, and the width was only two feet.But going up from here, the cliff suddenly separated to the two sides, even if Lu Xiao straightened his hands and feet, he could no longer support the cliffs on both sides.Looking at the cliff from below, he thought it would become narrower and narrower from above. He never imagined that the good fortune would be so miraculous, that the cliffs that are close to each other would separate in the middle of the way.
At this moment, Chen Nian also forgot to be afraid. With this width, she was able to support the cliffs on both sides by herself, so she jumped off Lu Xiao's back. After she stabilized her figure, she took a few steps back to the side, mocking him. : "Climb, didn't you say that whether you can climb or not is up to you?"
There are no vines around such a steep and smooth stone wall, and it is really impossible for even apes to climb it.
The sky on the east side has gradually turned white. Although the light in the "One Line of Sky" is dark, it will light up sooner or later. At that time, the two of them will be trapped in the middle of the mountain, unable to go up and down, and unable to go down.If there is a strong archer among the officers and soldiers, the two of them will really die.
At this moment, Lu Xiao also felt that he was too reckless before, but he didn't want to give in to Chen Nian, so he said: "Come here, I will take you down, the worst is to kill you. Don't worry, even if I die here, I will let you Get out alive."
When he said this, Chen Nian lost his breath.Thinking that this person fell into this situation only because of saving herself, she really has no position to blame him.Chen Nian said in a low voice: "You don't have to worry about me, you'd better rush out by yourself."
But Lu Xiao shook his head and said, "No, since I promised your adoptive father to protect you, I will do what I say. Don't talk nonsense, quickly lean on my back, let's go down while it's dark, and kill them by surprise!"
Chen Nian thought for a while, but said: "Although we are going to go down, we still have to think about how to go down." She lowered her head to look at the fire dragon in "A Line of Sky".Although the entrances on both sides were full of people, it was obvious that there were more people on the south side, and the other side expected them to flee south, "I don't think so!" Chen Nian approached Lu Xiao, and in his ear He whispered a few words.
This time Lu Xiao did not argue with Chen Nian, but nodded and said: "Okay, you wait for me here first, don't move around!" After waiting for Chen Nian's guarantee, he bypassed Chen Nian and went to the south exit quickly Climb away.Without the burden of Chen Nian behind him, his movements became more flexible all of a sudden, ups and downs, tossing and turning between the cliffs on both sides, and he went out a long way in the blink of an eye.
The officers and soldiers at the bottom of the cliff were waiting impatiently, but the sky had not been bright enough to see where the two people above were hiding, so they could only guard the exits at both ends, and arranged for military shooters to wait at the bottom of the cliff. Once the figures of Chen Nian and Lu Xiao are found, they will be shot and killed.
At this moment, a small clod of gravel and soil suddenly fell from above, as if someone had accidentally stepped on it, and went all the way south along the crack of the cliff.Soon some soldiers discovered the situation and shouted loudly: "Go to the south! The thief has gone to the south!"
Hearing the sound, the officer surnamed Xiang looked up, and sure enough, he saw a black shadow on the very high cliff heading towards the south, so he hurriedly ordered the archers to rush to the south side, and he must shoot the bandits before the cliff. superior.Many soldiers listened to the order and rushed to the south exit, and the guards on the north side suddenly became weaker.
After a while, Lu Xiao quietly went back and forth, grinning at Chen Nian who was still waiting there: "Okay, let's go!"
Without further ado, Chen Nian jumped onto Lu Xiao's back and said, "Go to the high place first, and try to alert them as late as possible."
Lu Xiao nodded slightly, and unexpectedly came to the north again.At this time, although the sky was dim and bright, the attention of the officers and soldiers below was all focused on the south exit, and no one expected that Chen Nian and Chen Nian would turn back.A soldier at the north exit inadvertently raised his head, and suddenly found that the two thieves were more than ten feet above his head.He was shocked, and then hurriedly shouted: "Here! The thief is here!"
"Get down!" Chen Nian commanded Lu Xiao urgently, and he saw Lu Xiao's feet slammed on the stone wall, jumped forward with his strength, and flew down from the cliff like a roc.Chen Nian was not idle in mid-air, and shot out several darts in his hand in the way of a goddess scattering flowers, and immediately wounded five or six soldiers below.
Taking advantage of such a short time, Lu Xiao, wielding a scimitar in his hand, has already led Chen Nian to the outside of "A Line of Sky".
Although the defense focus of the officers and soldiers was on the south side of the "One Line of Sky", there were at least two to three hundred officers and soldiers staying on the north side at this moment. As soon as Lu Xiao and Chen Nian landed, they were surrounded by crowds.Lu Xiao brandished his sword and rushed forward to open the way. After the end of the year, the two of them leaned against each other, fighting and walking.
The scimitar in Lu Xiao's hand looked inconspicuous, but the blade was extremely sharp, and his strikes were extremely ruthless, almost killing half a person with a knife.Compared with him, Chen Nian's strikes are much softer, although he has replaced the snatched long knife in his hand, but most of them attack the opponent's shoulders, thighs and other non-lethal places, only to injure the opponent but not die.
Those officers and soldiers soon discovered this, and automatically avoided Lu Xiao's sharp edge, and turned to besiege Chen Nian.In Chennian, the pressure increased sharply, and there was a sudden danger.In a hurry, Lu Xiao grabbed Chen Nian's hand and threw her in front of him in the air. He turned around and beheaded the soldiers who were pressing forward for her. He turned around and shouted at her, "What time is it? So soft-hearted! When they killed the people in Qingfengzhai, did they ever soften their hearts?"
Aunt Yan's eyes staring at the sky flashed before Chen Nian's eyes, those stumped limbs scattered at the bottom of the ditch, those young and old in Qingfengzhai who were dying... She was refreshed, and the saber technique in her hand suddenly became sharper. Swinging the long knife, the throat of an officer and soldier in front of her was severed, and hot blood spattered on her body, every drop seemed to be scalding.
Seeing that she had come to her senses, Lu Xiao didn't say any more, and rushed forward again with a knife, pulling her to break out.
The farther you go north, the wider the mountain road, and the more officers and soldiers coming up from around. Both Lu Xiao and Chen Nian are red-eyed, but the officers and soldiers in front of them are still endless. One group fell, and another group Wai will come up.In fact, it's not that these officers and soldiers are not afraid of life and death, but that the military law is harsh, and the chief officer was killed. If they teach them to escape, they will never be able to please them when they go back.It's better to take down these two people desperately, so that there will be an explanation when they go back.
Because they all had such thoughts, the siege of officers and soldiers became more and more fierce and difficult. Lu Xiao and Chen Nian rushed forward several times hand in hand, but they were still unable to break through the siege of the crowd.Officers and soldiers continued to rush back from the south to join the battle group. The longer the time, the more unfavorable the situation would be for Chen Nian and them.Half of Chen Nian's arm was already a little numb, and his speed of swinging the knife was much slower.She saw that Lu Xiao's martial arts were excellent, and it would be much easier to rush out of the siege alone without her dragging her down, so she shouted to him: "Go quickly! Leave me alone!"
"Shut up!" Lu Xiao scolded her viciously, pulled her forward and rushed a few steps forward, "Save your energy and cut down a few more people!"
Chen Nian shook off Lu Xiao's hand with all his might, and chopped down an officer and soldier blocking the way with a knife in both hands, and shouted: "You have tried your best to save me, so it is not a breach of trust, even my adoptive father can understand! You hurry up! When all the officers and soldiers from the south rush back, it will be difficult for you to leave!"
Lu Xiao turned around and asked her, "What about you?"
Chen Nian smiled indifferently, and replied: "Don't worry about me, I didn't expect to go back alive when I came to save people! I have earned a lot by killing me and exchanging the lives of those sisters!"
Lu Xiao was a little surprised, he never thought that a little girl like her could have such courage and loyalty.In his life, he respects the person who puts a knife on his friend's life and death the most. If he said that he saved Chen Nian before because of his promise to Mu Zhanyue, but now he sincerely wants to save this woman's life.He turned sideways to block the knife for her, grabbed her hand again, and shouted in a deep voice: "You can still do this, how can I not be as good as you! If I don't leave, if I can't save you, then my companion Let's die with you!"
Chen Nian was stunned for a moment, his heart suddenly filled with arrogance, and he shouted: "Well, there are friends on the way to Huangquan for company, it's fun, it's fun!"
With the determination to die, the two of them became more and more ruthless in their moves, and their momentum was boosted, and they rushed out for a certain distance with a burst of courage.The narrow mountain road is not good for them to break through, but it is also not convenient for the officers and soldiers to mobilize their troops.The two rushed forward desperately to the edge of the encirclement of officers and soldiers, Lu Xiao shouted loudly: "You go first." As he spoke, he threw Chen Nian away with all his strength.
Chen Nian jumped up vigorously with his strength, and touched the heads of several soldiers with his feet. After a few light ups and downs, he reached behind the crowd and escaped from the encirclement of officers and soldiers.After landing, she didn't run away in a hurry, but turned around and attacked from behind, using the long knife in her hand to cut a bloody path for Lu Xiao, who was surrounded by many.
Lu Xiao laughed out loud, and rushed out with Chen Nian.Without the obstruction of the officers and soldiers, the two of them were extremely fast, and they were about to rush to the valley mouth, but they saw a large group of cavalry galloping from the opposite side rolling the loess.
Chen Nian secretly shouted "It's over", she and Lu Xiao were already fighting to the point of exhaustion, if they were blocked by the cavalry in front again, and the officers and soldiers chasing after them entangled them, it would really be fatal.
Lu Xiao obviously saw through this too, turned around in mid-air, led Chen Nian towards the rock wall beside the valley, and shouted: "Grab the horse!"
At this point, he had no choice but to risk his life and give it a go. Chen Nian simply abandoned the long knife in his hand, imitating Lu Xiao's appearance, and climbed up the rock wall quickly with both hands, just waiting for the cavalry to rush when they arrived. Go to the past and desperately grab the next horse.
Unexpectedly, that team of cavalry reined in their horses suddenly and stopped more than ten feet away. The bows and crossbows on their arms were fired at once, but they shot down a large area of the officers and soldiers chasing behind Chen Nian and Lu Xiao, forcing the officers and soldiers behind to rush. He stopped, not daring to go forward.Chen Nian and Lu Xiao couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and they saw the cavalry team separated to the two sides neatly and silently, and a young man in a golden crown and fine clothes rode out slowly from behind, with a handsome face and cold eyebrows and eyes. Feng Junyang who was thrown under Zhaobi Mountain by Chen Nian.
Chen Nian was overjoyed, he couldn't care less, and immediately shouted loudly on the rock wall: "A Ce!"
Feng Junyang looked at her when he heard the sound, his quiet eyes stayed on her face and body for a moment, but he didn't respond to her, he just turned his head to look at Yang Gui who was hiding behind the officers and soldiers on the opposite side, and said lightly: "Mr. , now that you have shown your face, there is no need to hide it anymore."
Although Yang Gui was stabbed by Lu Xiao before, he did not die. After simple treatment, he hid behind and directed the officers and soldiers to besiege Chen Nian and Lu Xiao.He only wanted to get rid of Chen Nian so as not to reveal his identity, but unexpectedly Feng Junyang would suddenly appear here with cavalry, and judging by the outfits of these cavalry, except for the dozens of cavalry surrounding Feng Junyang Except for the dark guards in Yunxi, the rest are Qingzhou cavalry.
Yang Gui's body trembled slightly, he was thinking hard about how to escape, but he saw another person galloping out from behind the cavalry formation.This person is tall, neatly dressed in armor, with thick eyebrows, bright eyes, straight nose and square mouth in Chinese characters, but he is Yang Cheng, the lord of Qingzhou.Yang Cheng looked at Yang Gui angrily, and asked, "Yang Gui, I, Yang Cheng, treat you well, why did you do such a thing against the Lord?"
Yang Gui's knees softened and he knelt down on the ground, his face was as pale as paper, with beads of sweat on his forehead, but he bowed his head and couldn't answer.
Seeing him like this, Yang Cheng ordered the left and right in a cold voice: "Go and take Yang Gui down!"
The left and right guards agreed in unison, turned over and immediately went to arrest Yang Gui.Unexpectedly, before he could walk in front of Yang Gui, Yang Gui suddenly raised his face and showed a weird smile, and then a trace of black blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, his body swayed and fell to the ground.The two guards rushed forward to check, and after a while turned around and reported to Yang Chengdao: "General, this person has died of poison."
Yang Gui died suddenly, and the Jizhou officers and soldiers who were surrounding Yang Gui were stunned, and they all turned their heads to look at their officers.The school lieutenant surnamed Xiang had seen Yang Cheng before, so he was confused when he saw the situation, so he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted Yang Cheng: "Xiang Biao, the school lieutenant of the Sixth Battalion of Jizhou, has seen General Yang."
Yang Cheng nodded slightly, pointed to Yang Gui's body on the ground and asked him: "But he sent you a letter asking you to bring troops here?"
Xiang Biao is Qiu Deyuan's confidant, and he knew something about this matter, so he nodded and said: "It was this person who sent a letter to my young master saying that the Qingfengzhai bandits would pass through Feilongxing, so my young master ordered General Qiu to lead me Come and ambush the Qingfengzhai bandits."
Yang Cheng said: "This matter is a misunderstanding, you take the troops back first, and I will give Xue Shengxian an explanation."
But Xiang Biao didn't move, he hesitated for a moment, and then said: "General Yang's instructions, the general dare not disobey, but General Qiu has already been killed, and the general must take these two criminals back to Jizhou before he can go to see my family." Little Lord."
Hearing what he said, Yang Cheng glanced at Chen Nian who was still climbing on the rock wall, then turned to look at Feng Junyang: "My son, look..."
Feng Junyang smiled slightly, and asked Xiang Biao softly, "Did the two of them kill Ju Deyuan?"
Since Xiang Biao can become Shangguan's confidant, he is not a stupid person. Now that he has guessed Feng Junyang's identity, he first saluted Feng Junyang, and then replied respectfully: "Yes, it is him. The two killed General Qiu and wounded countless brothers in our army."
Only then did Feng Junyang turn his head and look up at Chen Nian, and said faintly, "Chen Nian, come here."
Chen Nian jumped down from the cliff to Feng Junyang in response.Seeing this, Lu Xiao hastily followed from behind, closely guarding her side.Feng Junyang's eyes flicked across Lu Xiao's body, his eyes sank invisibly, and then fell on Chen Nian, quietly waiting for her to approach.
Chen Nian walked up to Feng Junyang's horse and stood still, raised his head and greedily looked at him on the horse, his eyes couldn't stop burning, but there was endless joy in his eyes.It was good to be alive to see him.
How could Feng Junyang not be able to read her gaze, and his heart suddenly felt sour.Seeing her bloody mess, he felt distressed and annoyed at the same time, he didn't know whether to hold her in his arms and comfort her softly, or pull her over to give her a hard lesson.He slightly pursed the corners of his mouth, suppressed all kinds of emotions in his heart, and asked her in a cold voice: "You killed Judeyuan?"
Chen Nian was hesitating about how to answer this question, when Feng Junyang continued to ask: "Why did you kill him? He is an official of the imperial court, so it is impossible to be killed for no reason like this."
Chen Nian was blessed to the heart, and immediately replied loudly: "He first killed innocent people indiscriminately, killed many of my relatives and friends, and tried to insult my sister. I accidentally killed him to save my sister."
Feng Junyang nodded slowly after hearing this: "Oh, that's how it is."
On the other side, Xiang Biao was unwilling, and sternly scolded Chen Nian: "You're full of nonsense! General Qiu was ordered to exterminate bandits, how can you say that he killed innocent people indiscriminately?"
"Fuck!" Chen Nian immediately retorted loudly, "What kind of bandits? Where did they come from? Why did a group of old and weak women and children suddenly become bandits? Can your baby be a bandit too? You The eldest daughter of the family also came out to be bandits? We are not bandits at all, we are ordinary people living in the Taihang Mountains. Because of the military disaster in the mountains, we fled together. As officers and soldiers, you are paid by the court , not only can’t protect the safety of one side of the people, but also kill our people to pretend to be bandits and lead the army, are you shameless?”
She was already very talkative, but at this moment, she deliberately turned black and white, and made a blunt sentence that choked Xiang Biao. Xiang Biao suddenly became angry, and said angrily: "You guys are clearly Qingfengzhai bandits!"
"Who said it? What proof?" Chen Nian asked loudly, pointing to Yang Gui on the ground, "Only by his words? If he didn't have a guilty conscience, why would he commit suicide by taking poison?"
Xiang Biao was overwhelmed by her for a moment and couldn't answer correctly. He didn't know why Yang Gui committed suicide suddenly, but his chief was killed, and his soldiers were also killed and injured, so he couldn't just let these two go.He simply stopped arguing with Chen Nian, and just cupped his fists and said to Feng Junyang: "My lord, no matter what, these two people killed a lot of my soldiers, I have to bring them back to Jizhou to explain to my young master."
"You killed my father, elders and brothers more!" Chen Nian said angrily, "How about we count them one by one to see if you killed more civilians indiscriminately, or we accidentally injured more officers and soldiers!"
"Enough!" Yang Cheng stopped the two of them in a cold voice, turned to look at Feng Junyang, and asked, "How do you think the prince will handle this matter?"
Feng Junyang slightly bent the corners of his mouth, and said slowly: "This matter is difficult to handle. Both sides have their own reasons. It is really difficult to make a decision for a while. Xiang Xiaowei's words are reasonable, and I understand his requirements very well. If it's someone else, I don't care about this nosy matter, but this girl and I still have a little affection, and I don't want to see her let others bully. In my opinion, since both parties can't explain this clearly, it's better to go to Shengdu Obey the Holy Judgment!"
As he spoke, he slowly got down from the horse, looked directly at Xiang Biao, and said with a light smile, "Xiang Xiaowei, I will take these two people to Shengdu with you, let's go to the imperial court to file a lawsuit, okay? "
Feng Junyang clearly had a slight smile on his face, but Xiang Biao felt an invisible pressure that made him almost out of breath.Everyone knows that the current imperial court is in decline, and the world is full of heroes. This person is the son of the king of Yunxi, the son of a prince who dominates the southwest, and the younger brother of the imperial concubine. He is a person who has to be respected by the emperor in Shengdu. How does the little captain fight against the enemy?Not to mention that this person is still the object of his young master's fawning and wooing, not to mention the death of one Judeyuan, even if ten or eight more die, the young master probably will not offend this person for this.
Sweat was already breaking out on Xiang Biao's forehead. Fortunately, he was a flexible mind. Now that he had figured this out, he immediately replied respectfully: "The last general dare not. The last general just came out with General Qiu to perform military affairs. If you die, you will follow the arrangement of the Shi Ziye in the end."
"That's good." Feng Junyang withdrew the smile on his face, straightened up and said lightly, "You lead the army back first, and I will take these two away. I will go to your young master and talk about today's matter. Make it clear. Although I, Yunxi, are far away from here, the person I named Junyang is not something anyone can touch."
What he meant by what he said was that he still wanted to ask Xue Shengxian for his crimes.Xiang Biao was so frightened that he was sweating profusely that he lowered his head and dared not speak.Feng Junyang gave him a cold look, then turned to look at Yang Cheng again, and asked, "General Yang, do you think this is okay?"
Yang Cheng clasped his fists at him and said, "There are so many princes, regardless of previous suspicions, Yang is already very grateful, and what happened today is all caused by Yang's lax management, Yang really has no face to speak, it all depends on the prince's decision." .”
Feng Junyang smiled and said: "General Yang has said that, who doesn't have a few slaves who lie to others? General Yang must not blame himself too much."
As the two of them were talking, they turned the horse's head and walked back. Feng Junyang's eyes glanced at Chen Nian who was standing aside, but he didn't even pause.Seeing this situation, Lu Xiao asked Chen Nian strangely, "Didn't he come to save you? Why did he ignore you?"
However, Chen Nian knew that Feng Junyang was still hating him, and didn't know what to do for a while, so he just stood there with his lips slightly pursed.Since Feng Junyang was walking back, those Yunxi dark guards who were protecting him also turned around one after another, but one of the thin dark guards led a few people towards Chen Nian and shouted, "Miss Xie."
Chen Nian looked up, and only then did he recognize that this person was Shun Ping, the servant next to Feng Junyang.
Shunping fell off the horse, put the reins into Chennian's hands, and whispered to her: "The son is very worried about the girl, and he risked his life to show his identity to the Qingzhou army, and summoned me to wait for you with the 'Flying Dragon Order'." He galloped all night to save the girl, thanks to the true energy injected by Mr. Qiao to survive until now."
Chen Nian nodded silently, and simply left the code words of Qingfeng Village on the side of the mountain wall, then jumped on the horseback, shaking the reins, and chased after Feng Junyang.Lu Xiao was stunned for a while, and was about to catch up, when Shunping stopped him with his arms, and said with a smile: "This strong man, we don't have enough horses, so we can only wrong you and the villain to ride together." gone."
At this moment, there were indeed no extra horses. Lu Xiao was not a caring person, and seeing that Shunping spoke sincerely, he rode a horse with him.Lu Xiao wanted to catch up with Chen Nian, but Shunping rode his horse and followed him leisurely. He urged him a few more words, and Shunping replied with a smile: "With the son here, the strong man doesn't have to worry, thank you!" The safety of the girl."
Lu Xiao saw that Shunping did this intentionally, and after thinking about it for a while, he asked him, "Is your son Xie Chennian's lover?"
Shunping didn't expect him to speak so directly, he choked for a moment, thought for a while before answering: "This villain doesn't know, the villain only knows that the Elder Master values Miss Xie very much."
Lu Xiao said "oh", and stopped urging Shunping to come forward.
The people over there quickly left the valley and turned into Feilong Xing Road, where there were already carriages waiting.Feng Junyang exchanged a few words with Yang Cheng, then abandoned the horse and boarded the car, during which time he didn't even look at Chen Nian who was following closely behind.Chen Nian hesitated for a moment, and was thinking of brazenly following into the car, when Feng Junyang said softly inside, "Old Joe, please come in."
Beside the carriage, an old man about fifty years old jumped up from his horse and landed on the carriage. Chen Nian saw his temples bulge slightly, and his internal skills were obviously very deep, so he guessed that he must be sending internal energy to Feng Junyang Old Joe.
Qiao Lao first called out respectfully "Master Shizi" outside the car, and then opened the curtain to enter the car.The moment the car curtain fell, Chen Nian saw Feng Junyang, who was as pale as paper inside the car, and his heart tightened, and he thought to himself: His internal injuries have not healed, and he has been running around all night for her so much. He was extremely weak, but he was still sitting up like that just now, chatting and laughing with others immediately, and he didn't know how much perseverance he had to survive.
After about a stick of incense, Qiao Lao came out of the car again, and jumped back to his horse with his eyes downcast.
Chen Nian hesitated for a moment, but still brazenly rode his horse to the outside of Feng Junyang's car, and whispered through the window: "A Ce."
Feng Junyang did not respond to her in the car, Chen Nian didn't know what to do, but saw Shun Ping and Lu Xiao riding a horse to catch up, Lu Xiao glanced at the carriage, then looked at Chen Nian, and said disdainfully: "Since you want to Thank you, you have to say thank you face to face, who can hear you hemming and hawing here? I saw you were quite courageous before, why are you shy now?"
Chen Nian thought to himself that this is not something that can be done with a thank you. Feng Junyang is obviously still annoyed with her, and he is afraid that he has to apologize before thanking her.Shunping, who was at the side, looked at her with frowned eyebrows, pointed to the carriage quietly with his hand, and signaled her to go in directly.Chen Nian gritted his teeth, jumped off the horse, jumped to the car in a few steps, opened the curtain and got in.
The inside of the carriage was covered with tiger skins, and it was much more spacious than ordinary carriages. There was even a low table with all kinds of decorations on it.Feng Junyang was reclining on a big soft pillow with his eyes closed to rest his mind. He only raised his eyelids when he heard the movement, but he closed his eyes again when he saw that it was Chen Nian.Chen Nian's face was a little embarrassing, and he wanted to say something soft to him, but he opened his mouth and didn't know what to say.After thinking about it, she simply stepped forward and took his hand in front of her.
Feng Junyang still refused to talk to her, just lowered his eyes indifferently, and let her hold his hand.
"A Ce..." Chen Nian felt that he was wrong, and called him pitifully, "Don't bother me, I apologize to you, you don't even know how happy I was when I saw you just now, I thought I would never see you again alive is you."
Feng Junyang sneered at the corner of his mouth, and said calmly: "It's okay if you don't see me. Xie Nvxia sacrificed herself to save others regardless of life and death. This matter will definitely be praised in the martial arts for a hundred years. Xie Nvxia has With a good reputation after death, why worry about whether a certain person annoys you or not."
He spoke so harshly that Chen Nian couldn't help but blushed, and said softly: "A Ce, you know I'm not doing it for some good name."
Feng Junyang's mouth tightened again, but he still lowered his eyes and refused to pay attention to her.
(End of this chapter)
Because everyone hadn't slept all night and their spirits had been highly tense, both sides were extremely exhausted from the confrontation at this moment, especially Yang Gui and Ju Deyuan, who were held hostage, were tired and flustered, and their emotions were on the verge of collapse.The night was the thickest at dawn, and the torches they had planted on the cliff had been burned out, and the light suddenly dimmed.Captain Xiang, who was in charge for the time being, had an idea, and took the opportunity to say: "You two, I'll ask someone to come over and replace the torch with a new one."
As he spoke, he ordered people to fetch new torches and put them on for Chen Nian and the two of them. After a while, a man with the appearance of an officer and a man in black came out from behind the crowd holding torches and walked towards the crack of the cliff. They gave way to him one after another, Captain Xiang, who had been standing in front all this time, retreated back without showing any trace.
Chen Nian saw something strange in it, hurriedly shouted: "No need!"
The two people holding the torches turned a deaf ear to it, staring at Chen Nian who was still slowly walking towards the crack of the cliff, and said: "This girl, don't worry, we just want to change the torches for you two."
Chen Nian guessed that there seemed to be something wrong with the torch, and it might have ignited some kind of medicine, so he pressed the dagger in his hand to Yang Gui's neck in front of him, and shouted in a cold voice: "Stop, put the torch in your hand away. Throw it away, and I will kill these two people if I take another step forward!"
The man in black stopped when he heard the words, but the officer Xu saw that Lu Xiao, who was holding Jude Yuan hostage, remained silent, so he took another step forward thinking that it was easier for him to deceive him.Unexpectedly, Lu Xiao's silence was not because he was easy to deceive, but because he had already lost his patience in waiting, and he didn't even bother to say another word.Before the sole of the officer's foot touched the ground, Jude suddenly heard a scream from the distance. Blood spurted out from the side of his neck, which had already been cut off by the scimitar in Lu Xiao's hand.
The incident happened suddenly, not to mention that all the officers and soldiers surrounding the cliff were stunned, even Chen Nian was dumbfounded for a moment.She just said a threat, but she never expected that Lu Xiao would be so "obedient", and the other party took another step, and he really killed Ju Deyuan with a knife.
After a while, those officers and soldiers were the first to react.The officer was killed right in front of his eyes, all the officers and soldiers no longer cared about the life of the mysterious chief executive, they all roared and rushed to kill him.Chen Nian was startled before he could react, Lu Xiao who was beside him gave Yang Gui a sharp knife again, then grabbed her collar by the back of her neck, stepped hard on the cliff, and led her to level the ground. It was raised more than ten feet high and hung on the cliff.
A sharp arrow flew past the two of them, Lu Xiao swung Chen Nian onto his back with one arm, and shouted, "Hold tight!"
In his panic, Chen Nian didn't care too much, he quickly clamped himself on his back with his limbs, watching him still jumping left and right between the narrow cliffs like an ape, it seemed that he wanted to follow the cliff. Fleeing up the wall, he hurriedly shouted: "You can't go up! You'll be shot like a hedgehog!"
If it is said that the other party had some scruples when they were down there because they were afraid of accidentally hurting their own people, and now the two of them suddenly go up, they will become live arrows.Sure enough, the officers and soldiers below all adjusted their direction and drew their bows to shoot upwards.A lot of the scimitar in Lu Xiao's hand fell away, and some of it brushed against the sides of the two of them.
Chen Nian's shoulder was almost hit by an arrow, and the sharp arrow pierced through his clothes and grazed his skin tightly, and blood would be seen if he moved a little further inward.She was annoyed that it was Lu Xiao who was stunned that caused the two of them to fall into such a passive state. Seeing that he didn't listen to her advice and still insisted on climbing up, she said angrily: "Lu Xiao, if you want to die, don't take me with you!" , there is no way out here!"
Lu Xiao was stunned for a moment, taking advantage of the night to temporarily hide his body behind a protruding rock, then turned his head and asked Chen Nian, "Why? Didn't you get out after climbing to the top of the cliff?"
Chen Nian was so angry that he was about to vomit blood, and pointed to the still dark "line of sky" above his head to show him, and said helplessly: "This place is hundreds of feet high, and it gets steeper as you go up. The rock wall is as smooth as a mirror. There is no place to stay, even if you are reincarnated as an ape, you will not be able to climb up!"
With just such a short delay, the "One Line of Sky" was already full of officers and soldiers, even if the two wanted to go on, they could no longer go on.If he didn't remember the kindness that he came here to save him, Chen Nian would have the heart to strangle Lu Xiao to death.
Lu Xiao sneered lowly, and said, "It's not up to you whether you can climb up or not!"
After he finished speaking, he put the scimitar in his hand away from his waist, found the narrowest part of the cliff, supported the two sides of the cliff with his hands and feet, and climbed up quickly.Because the two of them had already climbed high at this time, and the night was dark, it was impossible to see their figures clearly only by relying on the torches below. There was no way for anyone to do so, so they had to block the exits at both ends, standing at the bottom of the cliff and yelling and cursing.
In normal times, Chen Nian would definitely not be willing to take advantage of his tongue, but now he lost his temper and laughed at himself: "Listen, I have scolded the eighth generation of ancestors, do you know what your ancestor's name is?"
Lu Xiao paused for a while, tilted his head to think for a moment, and then replied, "Taiwan."
Chen Nian was so angry that he was speechless, so he simply shut his mouth tightly and stopped speaking.Lu Xiao didn't speak any more, just climbed up in a muffled voice.Chen Nian lay on his back, and suddenly remembered that day Feng Junyang also carried her up the short cliff like this. Safety.Zhaobi Mountain was close to Feilong Xing, and it had been specially cleared by Qingfeng Village. Large wild animals rarely went there. As long as he was not discovered by his opponents, his safety for the night would not be a big problem.At dawn, his people will find a way to find him, so she doesn't have to worry about it.
When she suddenly fell silent like this, Lu Xiao still felt that his ears were clean at first, but after a while he was not used to it, so he couldn't help asking her: "What are you thinking?"
Chen Nian was dazed, and withdrew his thoughts from Feng Junyang, and taunted him when he heard the words: "I think we can't hide our figure until dawn, are you planning to spread your wings and fly out under the eyes of everyone, or just leave it at that?" Build a nest on this cliff, and settle down here."
Lu Xiao didn't like to deal with such a treacherous and slippery person like her. If Mu Zhan hadn't agreed to protect her, he would have left her there long ago. Hearing her say something like this now, although he doesn't understand the profoundness of Chinese, he still I also heard that this is definitely not a good word, and nine out of ten are scolding him.
He snorted coldly with disdain, and said angrily: "If you want to scold someone, just scold, what else is there to do?"
He was talking in his mouth, but his hands and feet didn't stop, and after a while, he climbed seven or eight feet high again.The cliffs on both sides narrowed abruptly from here, and the width was only two feet.But going up from here, the cliff suddenly separated to the two sides, even if Lu Xiao straightened his hands and feet, he could no longer support the cliffs on both sides.Looking at the cliff from below, he thought it would become narrower and narrower from above. He never imagined that the good fortune would be so miraculous, that the cliffs that are close to each other would separate in the middle of the way.
At this moment, Chen Nian also forgot to be afraid. With this width, she was able to support the cliffs on both sides by herself, so she jumped off Lu Xiao's back. After she stabilized her figure, she took a few steps back to the side, mocking him. : "Climb, didn't you say that whether you can climb or not is up to you?"
There are no vines around such a steep and smooth stone wall, and it is really impossible for even apes to climb it.
The sky on the east side has gradually turned white. Although the light in the "One Line of Sky" is dark, it will light up sooner or later. At that time, the two of them will be trapped in the middle of the mountain, unable to go up and down, and unable to go down.If there is a strong archer among the officers and soldiers, the two of them will really die.
At this moment, Lu Xiao also felt that he was too reckless before, but he didn't want to give in to Chen Nian, so he said: "Come here, I will take you down, the worst is to kill you. Don't worry, even if I die here, I will let you Get out alive."
When he said this, Chen Nian lost his breath.Thinking that this person fell into this situation only because of saving herself, she really has no position to blame him.Chen Nian said in a low voice: "You don't have to worry about me, you'd better rush out by yourself."
But Lu Xiao shook his head and said, "No, since I promised your adoptive father to protect you, I will do what I say. Don't talk nonsense, quickly lean on my back, let's go down while it's dark, and kill them by surprise!"
Chen Nian thought for a while, but said: "Although we are going to go down, we still have to think about how to go down." She lowered her head to look at the fire dragon in "A Line of Sky".Although the entrances on both sides were full of people, it was obvious that there were more people on the south side, and the other side expected them to flee south, "I don't think so!" Chen Nian approached Lu Xiao, and in his ear He whispered a few words.
This time Lu Xiao did not argue with Chen Nian, but nodded and said: "Okay, you wait for me here first, don't move around!" After waiting for Chen Nian's guarantee, he bypassed Chen Nian and went to the south exit quickly Climb away.Without the burden of Chen Nian behind him, his movements became more flexible all of a sudden, ups and downs, tossing and turning between the cliffs on both sides, and he went out a long way in the blink of an eye.
The officers and soldiers at the bottom of the cliff were waiting impatiently, but the sky had not been bright enough to see where the two people above were hiding, so they could only guard the exits at both ends, and arranged for military shooters to wait at the bottom of the cliff. Once the figures of Chen Nian and Lu Xiao are found, they will be shot and killed.
At this moment, a small clod of gravel and soil suddenly fell from above, as if someone had accidentally stepped on it, and went all the way south along the crack of the cliff.Soon some soldiers discovered the situation and shouted loudly: "Go to the south! The thief has gone to the south!"
Hearing the sound, the officer surnamed Xiang looked up, and sure enough, he saw a black shadow on the very high cliff heading towards the south, so he hurriedly ordered the archers to rush to the south side, and he must shoot the bandits before the cliff. superior.Many soldiers listened to the order and rushed to the south exit, and the guards on the north side suddenly became weaker.
After a while, Lu Xiao quietly went back and forth, grinning at Chen Nian who was still waiting there: "Okay, let's go!"
Without further ado, Chen Nian jumped onto Lu Xiao's back and said, "Go to the high place first, and try to alert them as late as possible."
Lu Xiao nodded slightly, and unexpectedly came to the north again.At this time, although the sky was dim and bright, the attention of the officers and soldiers below was all focused on the south exit, and no one expected that Chen Nian and Chen Nian would turn back.A soldier at the north exit inadvertently raised his head, and suddenly found that the two thieves were more than ten feet above his head.He was shocked, and then hurriedly shouted: "Here! The thief is here!"
"Get down!" Chen Nian commanded Lu Xiao urgently, and he saw Lu Xiao's feet slammed on the stone wall, jumped forward with his strength, and flew down from the cliff like a roc.Chen Nian was not idle in mid-air, and shot out several darts in his hand in the way of a goddess scattering flowers, and immediately wounded five or six soldiers below.
Taking advantage of such a short time, Lu Xiao, wielding a scimitar in his hand, has already led Chen Nian to the outside of "A Line of Sky".
Although the defense focus of the officers and soldiers was on the south side of the "One Line of Sky", there were at least two to three hundred officers and soldiers staying on the north side at this moment. As soon as Lu Xiao and Chen Nian landed, they were surrounded by crowds.Lu Xiao brandished his sword and rushed forward to open the way. After the end of the year, the two of them leaned against each other, fighting and walking.
The scimitar in Lu Xiao's hand looked inconspicuous, but the blade was extremely sharp, and his strikes were extremely ruthless, almost killing half a person with a knife.Compared with him, Chen Nian's strikes are much softer, although he has replaced the snatched long knife in his hand, but most of them attack the opponent's shoulders, thighs and other non-lethal places, only to injure the opponent but not die.
Those officers and soldiers soon discovered this, and automatically avoided Lu Xiao's sharp edge, and turned to besiege Chen Nian.In Chennian, the pressure increased sharply, and there was a sudden danger.In a hurry, Lu Xiao grabbed Chen Nian's hand and threw her in front of him in the air. He turned around and beheaded the soldiers who were pressing forward for her. He turned around and shouted at her, "What time is it? So soft-hearted! When they killed the people in Qingfengzhai, did they ever soften their hearts?"
Aunt Yan's eyes staring at the sky flashed before Chen Nian's eyes, those stumped limbs scattered at the bottom of the ditch, those young and old in Qingfengzhai who were dying... She was refreshed, and the saber technique in her hand suddenly became sharper. Swinging the long knife, the throat of an officer and soldier in front of her was severed, and hot blood spattered on her body, every drop seemed to be scalding.
Seeing that she had come to her senses, Lu Xiao didn't say any more, and rushed forward again with a knife, pulling her to break out.
The farther you go north, the wider the mountain road, and the more officers and soldiers coming up from around. Both Lu Xiao and Chen Nian are red-eyed, but the officers and soldiers in front of them are still endless. One group fell, and another group Wai will come up.In fact, it's not that these officers and soldiers are not afraid of life and death, but that the military law is harsh, and the chief officer was killed. If they teach them to escape, they will never be able to please them when they go back.It's better to take down these two people desperately, so that there will be an explanation when they go back.
Because they all had such thoughts, the siege of officers and soldiers became more and more fierce and difficult. Lu Xiao and Chen Nian rushed forward several times hand in hand, but they were still unable to break through the siege of the crowd.Officers and soldiers continued to rush back from the south to join the battle group. The longer the time, the more unfavorable the situation would be for Chen Nian and them.Half of Chen Nian's arm was already a little numb, and his speed of swinging the knife was much slower.She saw that Lu Xiao's martial arts were excellent, and it would be much easier to rush out of the siege alone without her dragging her down, so she shouted to him: "Go quickly! Leave me alone!"
"Shut up!" Lu Xiao scolded her viciously, pulled her forward and rushed a few steps forward, "Save your energy and cut down a few more people!"
Chen Nian shook off Lu Xiao's hand with all his might, and chopped down an officer and soldier blocking the way with a knife in both hands, and shouted: "You have tried your best to save me, so it is not a breach of trust, even my adoptive father can understand! You hurry up! When all the officers and soldiers from the south rush back, it will be difficult for you to leave!"
Lu Xiao turned around and asked her, "What about you?"
Chen Nian smiled indifferently, and replied: "Don't worry about me, I didn't expect to go back alive when I came to save people! I have earned a lot by killing me and exchanging the lives of those sisters!"
Lu Xiao was a little surprised, he never thought that a little girl like her could have such courage and loyalty.In his life, he respects the person who puts a knife on his friend's life and death the most. If he said that he saved Chen Nian before because of his promise to Mu Zhanyue, but now he sincerely wants to save this woman's life.He turned sideways to block the knife for her, grabbed her hand again, and shouted in a deep voice: "You can still do this, how can I not be as good as you! If I don't leave, if I can't save you, then my companion Let's die with you!"
Chen Nian was stunned for a moment, his heart suddenly filled with arrogance, and he shouted: "Well, there are friends on the way to Huangquan for company, it's fun, it's fun!"
With the determination to die, the two of them became more and more ruthless in their moves, and their momentum was boosted, and they rushed out for a certain distance with a burst of courage.The narrow mountain road is not good for them to break through, but it is also not convenient for the officers and soldiers to mobilize their troops.The two rushed forward desperately to the edge of the encirclement of officers and soldiers, Lu Xiao shouted loudly: "You go first." As he spoke, he threw Chen Nian away with all his strength.
Chen Nian jumped up vigorously with his strength, and touched the heads of several soldiers with his feet. After a few light ups and downs, he reached behind the crowd and escaped from the encirclement of officers and soldiers.After landing, she didn't run away in a hurry, but turned around and attacked from behind, using the long knife in her hand to cut a bloody path for Lu Xiao, who was surrounded by many.
Lu Xiao laughed out loud, and rushed out with Chen Nian.Without the obstruction of the officers and soldiers, the two of them were extremely fast, and they were about to rush to the valley mouth, but they saw a large group of cavalry galloping from the opposite side rolling the loess.
Chen Nian secretly shouted "It's over", she and Lu Xiao were already fighting to the point of exhaustion, if they were blocked by the cavalry in front again, and the officers and soldiers chasing after them entangled them, it would really be fatal.
Lu Xiao obviously saw through this too, turned around in mid-air, led Chen Nian towards the rock wall beside the valley, and shouted: "Grab the horse!"
At this point, he had no choice but to risk his life and give it a go. Chen Nian simply abandoned the long knife in his hand, imitating Lu Xiao's appearance, and climbed up the rock wall quickly with both hands, just waiting for the cavalry to rush when they arrived. Go to the past and desperately grab the next horse.
Unexpectedly, that team of cavalry reined in their horses suddenly and stopped more than ten feet away. The bows and crossbows on their arms were fired at once, but they shot down a large area of the officers and soldiers chasing behind Chen Nian and Lu Xiao, forcing the officers and soldiers behind to rush. He stopped, not daring to go forward.Chen Nian and Lu Xiao couldn't help being stunned for a moment, and they saw the cavalry team separated to the two sides neatly and silently, and a young man in a golden crown and fine clothes rode out slowly from behind, with a handsome face and cold eyebrows and eyes. Feng Junyang who was thrown under Zhaobi Mountain by Chen Nian.
Chen Nian was overjoyed, he couldn't care less, and immediately shouted loudly on the rock wall: "A Ce!"
Feng Junyang looked at her when he heard the sound, his quiet eyes stayed on her face and body for a moment, but he didn't respond to her, he just turned his head to look at Yang Gui who was hiding behind the officers and soldiers on the opposite side, and said lightly: "Mr. , now that you have shown your face, there is no need to hide it anymore."
Although Yang Gui was stabbed by Lu Xiao before, he did not die. After simple treatment, he hid behind and directed the officers and soldiers to besiege Chen Nian and Lu Xiao.He only wanted to get rid of Chen Nian so as not to reveal his identity, but unexpectedly Feng Junyang would suddenly appear here with cavalry, and judging by the outfits of these cavalry, except for the dozens of cavalry surrounding Feng Junyang Except for the dark guards in Yunxi, the rest are Qingzhou cavalry.
Yang Gui's body trembled slightly, he was thinking hard about how to escape, but he saw another person galloping out from behind the cavalry formation.This person is tall, neatly dressed in armor, with thick eyebrows, bright eyes, straight nose and square mouth in Chinese characters, but he is Yang Cheng, the lord of Qingzhou.Yang Cheng looked at Yang Gui angrily, and asked, "Yang Gui, I, Yang Cheng, treat you well, why did you do such a thing against the Lord?"
Yang Gui's knees softened and he knelt down on the ground, his face was as pale as paper, with beads of sweat on his forehead, but he bowed his head and couldn't answer.
Seeing him like this, Yang Cheng ordered the left and right in a cold voice: "Go and take Yang Gui down!"
The left and right guards agreed in unison, turned over and immediately went to arrest Yang Gui.Unexpectedly, before he could walk in front of Yang Gui, Yang Gui suddenly raised his face and showed a weird smile, and then a trace of black blood spilled from the corner of his mouth, his body swayed and fell to the ground.The two guards rushed forward to check, and after a while turned around and reported to Yang Chengdao: "General, this person has died of poison."
Yang Gui died suddenly, and the Jizhou officers and soldiers who were surrounding Yang Gui were stunned, and they all turned their heads to look at their officers.The school lieutenant surnamed Xiang had seen Yang Cheng before, so he was confused when he saw the situation, so he hurriedly stepped forward and saluted Yang Cheng: "Xiang Biao, the school lieutenant of the Sixth Battalion of Jizhou, has seen General Yang."
Yang Cheng nodded slightly, pointed to Yang Gui's body on the ground and asked him: "But he sent you a letter asking you to bring troops here?"
Xiang Biao is Qiu Deyuan's confidant, and he knew something about this matter, so he nodded and said: "It was this person who sent a letter to my young master saying that the Qingfengzhai bandits would pass through Feilongxing, so my young master ordered General Qiu to lead me Come and ambush the Qingfengzhai bandits."
Yang Cheng said: "This matter is a misunderstanding, you take the troops back first, and I will give Xue Shengxian an explanation."
But Xiang Biao didn't move, he hesitated for a moment, and then said: "General Yang's instructions, the general dare not disobey, but General Qiu has already been killed, and the general must take these two criminals back to Jizhou before he can go to see my family." Little Lord."
Hearing what he said, Yang Cheng glanced at Chen Nian who was still climbing on the rock wall, then turned to look at Feng Junyang: "My son, look..."
Feng Junyang smiled slightly, and asked Xiang Biao softly, "Did the two of them kill Ju Deyuan?"
Since Xiang Biao can become Shangguan's confidant, he is not a stupid person. Now that he has guessed Feng Junyang's identity, he first saluted Feng Junyang, and then replied respectfully: "Yes, it is him. The two killed General Qiu and wounded countless brothers in our army."
Only then did Feng Junyang turn his head and look up at Chen Nian, and said faintly, "Chen Nian, come here."
Chen Nian jumped down from the cliff to Feng Junyang in response.Seeing this, Lu Xiao hastily followed from behind, closely guarding her side.Feng Junyang's eyes flicked across Lu Xiao's body, his eyes sank invisibly, and then fell on Chen Nian, quietly waiting for her to approach.
Chen Nian walked up to Feng Junyang's horse and stood still, raised his head and greedily looked at him on the horse, his eyes couldn't stop burning, but there was endless joy in his eyes.It was good to be alive to see him.
How could Feng Junyang not be able to read her gaze, and his heart suddenly felt sour.Seeing her bloody mess, he felt distressed and annoyed at the same time, he didn't know whether to hold her in his arms and comfort her softly, or pull her over to give her a hard lesson.He slightly pursed the corners of his mouth, suppressed all kinds of emotions in his heart, and asked her in a cold voice: "You killed Judeyuan?"
Chen Nian was hesitating about how to answer this question, when Feng Junyang continued to ask: "Why did you kill him? He is an official of the imperial court, so it is impossible to be killed for no reason like this."
Chen Nian was blessed to the heart, and immediately replied loudly: "He first killed innocent people indiscriminately, killed many of my relatives and friends, and tried to insult my sister. I accidentally killed him to save my sister."
Feng Junyang nodded slowly after hearing this: "Oh, that's how it is."
On the other side, Xiang Biao was unwilling, and sternly scolded Chen Nian: "You're full of nonsense! General Qiu was ordered to exterminate bandits, how can you say that he killed innocent people indiscriminately?"
"Fuck!" Chen Nian immediately retorted loudly, "What kind of bandits? Where did they come from? Why did a group of old and weak women and children suddenly become bandits? Can your baby be a bandit too? You The eldest daughter of the family also came out to be bandits? We are not bandits at all, we are ordinary people living in the Taihang Mountains. Because of the military disaster in the mountains, we fled together. As officers and soldiers, you are paid by the court , not only can’t protect the safety of one side of the people, but also kill our people to pretend to be bandits and lead the army, are you shameless?”
She was already very talkative, but at this moment, she deliberately turned black and white, and made a blunt sentence that choked Xiang Biao. Xiang Biao suddenly became angry, and said angrily: "You guys are clearly Qingfengzhai bandits!"
"Who said it? What proof?" Chen Nian asked loudly, pointing to Yang Gui on the ground, "Only by his words? If he didn't have a guilty conscience, why would he commit suicide by taking poison?"
Xiang Biao was overwhelmed by her for a moment and couldn't answer correctly. He didn't know why Yang Gui committed suicide suddenly, but his chief was killed, and his soldiers were also killed and injured, so he couldn't just let these two go.He simply stopped arguing with Chen Nian, and just cupped his fists and said to Feng Junyang: "My lord, no matter what, these two people killed a lot of my soldiers, I have to bring them back to Jizhou to explain to my young master."
"You killed my father, elders and brothers more!" Chen Nian said angrily, "How about we count them one by one to see if you killed more civilians indiscriminately, or we accidentally injured more officers and soldiers!"
"Enough!" Yang Cheng stopped the two of them in a cold voice, turned to look at Feng Junyang, and asked, "How do you think the prince will handle this matter?"
Feng Junyang slightly bent the corners of his mouth, and said slowly: "This matter is difficult to handle. Both sides have their own reasons. It is really difficult to make a decision for a while. Xiang Xiaowei's words are reasonable, and I understand his requirements very well. If it's someone else, I don't care about this nosy matter, but this girl and I still have a little affection, and I don't want to see her let others bully. In my opinion, since both parties can't explain this clearly, it's better to go to Shengdu Obey the Holy Judgment!"
As he spoke, he slowly got down from the horse, looked directly at Xiang Biao, and said with a light smile, "Xiang Xiaowei, I will take these two people to Shengdu with you, let's go to the imperial court to file a lawsuit, okay? "
Feng Junyang clearly had a slight smile on his face, but Xiang Biao felt an invisible pressure that made him almost out of breath.Everyone knows that the current imperial court is in decline, and the world is full of heroes. This person is the son of the king of Yunxi, the son of a prince who dominates the southwest, and the younger brother of the imperial concubine. He is a person who has to be respected by the emperor in Shengdu. How does the little captain fight against the enemy?Not to mention that this person is still the object of his young master's fawning and wooing, not to mention the death of one Judeyuan, even if ten or eight more die, the young master probably will not offend this person for this.
Sweat was already breaking out on Xiang Biao's forehead. Fortunately, he was a flexible mind. Now that he had figured this out, he immediately replied respectfully: "The last general dare not. The last general just came out with General Qiu to perform military affairs. If you die, you will follow the arrangement of the Shi Ziye in the end."
"That's good." Feng Junyang withdrew the smile on his face, straightened up and said lightly, "You lead the army back first, and I will take these two away. I will go to your young master and talk about today's matter. Make it clear. Although I, Yunxi, are far away from here, the person I named Junyang is not something anyone can touch."
What he meant by what he said was that he still wanted to ask Xue Shengxian for his crimes.Xiang Biao was so frightened that he was sweating profusely that he lowered his head and dared not speak.Feng Junyang gave him a cold look, then turned to look at Yang Cheng again, and asked, "General Yang, do you think this is okay?"
Yang Cheng clasped his fists at him and said, "There are so many princes, regardless of previous suspicions, Yang is already very grateful, and what happened today is all caused by Yang's lax management, Yang really has no face to speak, it all depends on the prince's decision." .”
Feng Junyang smiled and said: "General Yang has said that, who doesn't have a few slaves who lie to others? General Yang must not blame himself too much."
As the two of them were talking, they turned the horse's head and walked back. Feng Junyang's eyes glanced at Chen Nian who was standing aside, but he didn't even pause.Seeing this situation, Lu Xiao asked Chen Nian strangely, "Didn't he come to save you? Why did he ignore you?"
However, Chen Nian knew that Feng Junyang was still hating him, and didn't know what to do for a while, so he just stood there with his lips slightly pursed.Since Feng Junyang was walking back, those Yunxi dark guards who were protecting him also turned around one after another, but one of the thin dark guards led a few people towards Chen Nian and shouted, "Miss Xie."
Chen Nian looked up, and only then did he recognize that this person was Shun Ping, the servant next to Feng Junyang.
Shunping fell off the horse, put the reins into Chennian's hands, and whispered to her: "The son is very worried about the girl, and he risked his life to show his identity to the Qingzhou army, and summoned me to wait for you with the 'Flying Dragon Order'." He galloped all night to save the girl, thanks to the true energy injected by Mr. Qiao to survive until now."
Chen Nian nodded silently, and simply left the code words of Qingfeng Village on the side of the mountain wall, then jumped on the horseback, shaking the reins, and chased after Feng Junyang.Lu Xiao was stunned for a while, and was about to catch up, when Shunping stopped him with his arms, and said with a smile: "This strong man, we don't have enough horses, so we can only wrong you and the villain to ride together." gone."
At this moment, there were indeed no extra horses. Lu Xiao was not a caring person, and seeing that Shunping spoke sincerely, he rode a horse with him.Lu Xiao wanted to catch up with Chen Nian, but Shunping rode his horse and followed him leisurely. He urged him a few more words, and Shunping replied with a smile: "With the son here, the strong man doesn't have to worry, thank you!" The safety of the girl."
Lu Xiao saw that Shunping did this intentionally, and after thinking about it for a while, he asked him, "Is your son Xie Chennian's lover?"
Shunping didn't expect him to speak so directly, he choked for a moment, thought for a while before answering: "This villain doesn't know, the villain only knows that the Elder Master values Miss Xie very much."
Lu Xiao said "oh", and stopped urging Shunping to come forward.
The people over there quickly left the valley and turned into Feilong Xing Road, where there were already carriages waiting.Feng Junyang exchanged a few words with Yang Cheng, then abandoned the horse and boarded the car, during which time he didn't even look at Chen Nian who was following closely behind.Chen Nian hesitated for a moment, and was thinking of brazenly following into the car, when Feng Junyang said softly inside, "Old Joe, please come in."
Beside the carriage, an old man about fifty years old jumped up from his horse and landed on the carriage. Chen Nian saw his temples bulge slightly, and his internal skills were obviously very deep, so he guessed that he must be sending internal energy to Feng Junyang Old Joe.
Qiao Lao first called out respectfully "Master Shizi" outside the car, and then opened the curtain to enter the car.The moment the car curtain fell, Chen Nian saw Feng Junyang, who was as pale as paper inside the car, and his heart tightened, and he thought to himself: His internal injuries have not healed, and he has been running around all night for her so much. He was extremely weak, but he was still sitting up like that just now, chatting and laughing with others immediately, and he didn't know how much perseverance he had to survive.
After about a stick of incense, Qiao Lao came out of the car again, and jumped back to his horse with his eyes downcast.
Chen Nian hesitated for a moment, but still brazenly rode his horse to the outside of Feng Junyang's car, and whispered through the window: "A Ce."
Feng Junyang did not respond to her in the car, Chen Nian didn't know what to do, but saw Shun Ping and Lu Xiao riding a horse to catch up, Lu Xiao glanced at the carriage, then looked at Chen Nian, and said disdainfully: "Since you want to Thank you, you have to say thank you face to face, who can hear you hemming and hawing here? I saw you were quite courageous before, why are you shy now?"
Chen Nian thought to himself that this is not something that can be done with a thank you. Feng Junyang is obviously still annoyed with her, and he is afraid that he has to apologize before thanking her.Shunping, who was at the side, looked at her with frowned eyebrows, pointed to the carriage quietly with his hand, and signaled her to go in directly.Chen Nian gritted his teeth, jumped off the horse, jumped to the car in a few steps, opened the curtain and got in.
The inside of the carriage was covered with tiger skins, and it was much more spacious than ordinary carriages. There was even a low table with all kinds of decorations on it.Feng Junyang was reclining on a big soft pillow with his eyes closed to rest his mind. He only raised his eyelids when he heard the movement, but he closed his eyes again when he saw that it was Chen Nian.Chen Nian's face was a little embarrassing, and he wanted to say something soft to him, but he opened his mouth and didn't know what to say.After thinking about it, she simply stepped forward and took his hand in front of her.
Feng Junyang still refused to talk to her, just lowered his eyes indifferently, and let her hold his hand.
"A Ce..." Chen Nian felt that he was wrong, and called him pitifully, "Don't bother me, I apologize to you, you don't even know how happy I was when I saw you just now, I thought I would never see you again alive is you."
Feng Junyang sneered at the corner of his mouth, and said calmly: "It's okay if you don't see me. Xie Nvxia sacrificed herself to save others regardless of life and death. This matter will definitely be praised in the martial arts for a hundred years. Xie Nvxia has With a good reputation after death, why worry about whether a certain person annoys you or not."
He spoke so harshly that Chen Nian couldn't help but blushed, and said softly: "A Ce, you know I'm not doing it for some good name."
Feng Junyang's mouth tightened again, but he still lowered his eyes and refused to pay attention to her.
