Chapter 192

After waiting for an hour, everyone finally arrived at the army camp, but it was a mess, without the shadows of Nie Wuhuan and Duan Qingqing, even Zhou Xiang was not here.

"Ma Shunyu, where did your lord go?" Su Jiu growled at Ma Shunyu who was tidying up his soldiers and horses.

Ma Shunyu turned around and saw Su Jiu and Liao Xuanyi who had been injured just now, and immediately ran over, "Prince Liao, Miss Su Jiu, why did you come here? The lord told you to stay in the Liang residence to recover from your injuries."

"Our injuries are not important. Let me ask you, where did your lord and General Duan go? Where is Deputy General Zhou Xiangzhou?"

"Miss Su didn't know something. Because the weapon was bombed, although the rescue was timely, it was damaged a lot. The prince discovered the clue in time and transferred the weapon. General Duan investigated and dealt with the spies. After arresting him, he also escorted the prince. He is on the way now. Deputy General Zhou Deploy the next layout on the other side, I believe it's time to arrive."

"So..." Su Jiu nodded slightly, got off his horse, and pulled Liang Xiaodie to Nie Wuhuan's camp.

Ma Shunyu over there stopped her, "Miss Su, this place is still not safe enough, why don't I send you back to Liang Mansion!"

"It's okay, I have something to do with your lord, I'll wait for him to come back here, you go to your work, and, Liao lord is seriously injured, you have to bandage him and change his dressing, I will take Liang Xiaodie to your lord's tent to rest , let us know in time.”

"This……"

"Don't hesitate, do it quickly!" Su Jiu pretended to kick Ma Shunyu.

Ma Shunyu didn't dodge and looked at Liao Xuanyi who was already exhausted from running around, and immediately nodded and agreed, "Okay, I'll go get ready, and I'll ask someone to take care of Miss Su's place."

"I don't need anyone here, you can do it yourself."

Su Jiu also hopes that someone will come to assassinate him, because she knows that the overall situation is in Mo Xian's hands at this time, and she is worried that he will not be able to find Mo Xian. Whenever she sees Mo Xian, she must ask clearly. Where are you?
Su Jiu dragged Liang Xiaodie into the tent and lowered the curtain to cover up the noise outside. She sat on the wooden pier where Nie Wuhuan usually sat, looked at the topographic map in front of her, and her heart went to You Xia Outside the mountain, within the gray grassland, there is a barbaric desert.

According to legend, the barbarian desert is uninhabited, and some nomads only live at the end of the grassland. She has never seen it before. Now, these people are flying across the desert, right under her nose, and they have a deep connection with her. Love to play tricks on people, the world is impermanent.

"Su Jiu, I'm a little tired, come and accompany me." Liang Xiaodie's voice came from inside the screen.

"Okay, I'll accompany you, we haven't whispered together for a long time."

"After you left, I had nightmares and worries all day long, hey..."

"Don't think too much, just sleep and wake up will be different. This matter will come to light sooner or later..."

The next day, before dawn, the sky was still gloomy like a dark cave, without even a single star.

"Report!"

The guard who delivered the letter let out a long whistle, and rode all the way to the army camp, the flustered voices did not stop.

Su Jiu woke up from the dream, before he could step on his shoes, he walked up to the man barefoot, "What is it, what is it?"

"Miss Su, the battle situation."

Su Jiu reached out to take it, and looked around in a daze. The handwriting on it was domineering and code words. She read it for a long time but couldn't understand what was written.She thought about it, and ran barefoot to Liao Xuanyi's tent, "Prince Liao, hurry up, read it to me."

Liao Xuanyi sat up from the bed, took the secret report in Su Jiu's hand, glanced at it hastily, and said, "Quick, prepare your horse!"

"What, what happened?" Su Jiu stopped him and asked incessantly.

"After Prince Nie pursued it alone, General Duan was injured after he died. At this time, there is no news from the two of them, and we don't know what to do."

"What?" Su Jiu's heart skipped a beat, and he stared at Liao Xuanyi with a white face. Seeing that the matter had already happened, Su Jiu suddenly turned his head, "Come here, prepare the horse, prepare the horse."

"Su Jiu, Su Jiu?" Liao Xuanyi pulled Su Jiu back, "What are you doing?"

"I'm going to find Nie Wuhuan and Duan Qingqing, you stay here. There must be no one in the main tent. Come..." Su Jiu drank in a low voice.

Ma Shunyu came running from the other side, "What happened?"

"Nie Wuhuan is missing. Ma Shunyu, you and I will search on both sides. Come." Su Jiu pulled the messenger and asked, "Tell me, where did Prince Nie disappear from? Is there any sign? I don't have any signs with me." Is there anyone?"

"I brought, 20 escorts, and more than [-] wounded soldiers, but the barbarian led people to follow them all the way. Seeing that our team was about to reach the barracks, the assassins all wore black clothes and came to us. , only took torches to disperse our people. But the mountain was steep, the horse was frightened, Prince Nie’s horse was overturned, and the people fell down the mountain. We searched all night but didn’t find them.”

"Later, we saw Prince Nie's bloody coat under the mountain. As a last resort, we went back and sent a letter to Vice General Zhou. Vice General Zhou said that the front had stopped for some reason and would not attack again. However, there were many wounded soldiers, and the soldiers failed all day and night. It's time to eat, we must take advantage of this juncture to eat and rest, we can't chase any more. Vice General Zhou can't leave, we really have no choice but to ask the subordinates to come down and deliver a letter, maybe His Royal Highness Liao will have a way."

Su Jiu drank in a low voice, "Okay, I'll go, Lord Liao, you stay. Ma Shunyu, you go with me and lead me the way."

"Miss Su!" Ma Shunyu stopped Su Jiu, "I'll just go, you wait here for me."

"Asshole, no one can stop me at this moment, come and prepare the horse."

"Su Jiu?" Liao Xuanyi stepped forward.

Su Jiu was taken aback and screamed, "I told you, no one is allowed to stop me."

Liao Xuanyi was stunned, looking at Su Jiu with a surprised face, and suddenly his expression softened, and he said softly, "Okay, I won't stop you. But you have to put your shoes on first."

Su Jiu was startled. Seeing her feet on the gravel ground covered with red blood, she frowned lightly, and pointed to the several soldiers standing in front of her, "Go and prepare your horses, and you should send more horses." Manpower to support Vice General Zhou, you follow me. The rest of the people are on standby in the army, waiting for Prince Liao's arrangement at any time."

"Yes."

After Su Jiu finished drinking, he turned his head and ran into the tent, casually put on a pair of embroidered shoes and grabbed a cape, and trotted out, "Let's go, we can't find Prince Nie, and we have to come back before dark today, I understand Is it?"

"Yes."

"Prince Liao, thank you!" Su Jiu turned his head and whispered to Liao Xuanyi, got on the horse's back, and drove the horse sideways, followed closely by Ma Shunyu.

A man rode up the hillside, and Ma Shunyu pointed to the fork on the left and said, "Miss Su, here we are. This is where they said Prince Nie was before he disappeared."

Su Jiu nodded slightly, but said nothing, holding the rein tightly in his hand, galloping all the way on the small mountain road.

The terrain here is quite strange. The place where the military camp is stationed is several miles away from the city where the battle is ahead. Except for a place with dense forests on the way, there are rugged mountain roads all around. It is very dangerous to march and fight, let alone Nie Wu. Huan was escorted by a carriage with only 20 people following him.

Presumably those barbarians had figured out that Nie Wuhuan would pass by here, so they arranged in advance to follow them all the way, and finally attacked at the narrowest and steepest section.

"How is Prince Nie's injury?" Su Jiu asked the man who delivered the letter just now, his eyes fixed on the surroundings of the rugged mountain road, looking for suspicious signs.

"There's nothing serious about him, he just passed out from the Mihun powder. When we dragged Prince Nie back, he was still in a coma."

Su Jiu took a look at him and asked again, "Is there anyone who can clearly see if the barbarians are attacking?"

"However, judging by the means of action and speed, it is indeed them. Their flatterers are stronger than ours, and can even climb high mountains. And the prince is still whispering someone's name. It seems to be acquainted, called..."

"Mo Xian?" Su Jiu drank in a low voice.

The man nodded, "Exactly."

Su Jiu nodded slightly. It seems that Nie Wuhuan had already noticed something at that time, but he was unable to fight back due to the drugged body. In addition, the carriage was overturned and the weapon was not discarded. It is not difficult to rule out that he is still in this mountain. And there are pursuers behind.

"Does Prince Nie have any other injuries?"

The guard thought for a while, "No."

"Very good! From here, start searching, let me find it step by step, maybe your general is still in this mountain."

"Yes!"

There were only two people following Su Jiu, and she was also carrying a heavy broad knife, straddling the horse's back, looking down at the ground without blinking.

In the mountain road, no one has walked through it all year round. There is no soil on the ground, only a thick layer of leaves is covered. Horseshoes step on it bumpy and bumpy. Most of the oncoming branches are crossed. Will be cut cheek by that branch.

Su Jiu didn't care about it at all, and drew out a broad knife to cut off the branches blocking the way, "You don't have to follow me, spread out and look for it."

"No, Miss Su, the general ordered us to follow Miss Su and not leave."

After going down the mountain road, a voice shouted from a distance, "Miss Su, I found something here."

Su Jiu was startled, tiptoed, and the horse started to run lightly. When it came to him, Su Jiu was startled. Seeing the broad knife in the guard's hand, Su Jiu frowned slightly, "Give me another Look for it, but you can find something, maybe it's nearby."

"This is Nie Wuhuan's knife." Su Jiu took the broad knife handed over by the guard and weighed it in her hand. It was so cold, and the blood seemed to be fresh. She exclaimed, "It must have been lost not long ago, search for it for me. , continue to search, if you see a person in black, kill him."

"Yes."

Su Jiu straddled the broad knife around her waist. She looked up and looked around. There were shallow marks on the grass, and there was only a bloody broad knife here.When she disappeared, Nie Wuhuan was seriously injured, and now she must not be far away, maybe there will be bloodstains along the way, but she didn't see any bloodstains along the way, why was the broad knife lost here? !
Su Jiu silently said in his heart, "Nie Wuhuan, you will be fine, wait for me, wait for me to find you and pick you up. Just like yesterday when you desperately rescued me, I will not give up on you."
