Chapter 361: Nobles of the Chu State
Stone Collar's face changed slightly, he grabbed the unconscious woman's wrist, and let go of his hand with a slight sense, "Offended." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeใ infoThe noble man is not in good condition, he must be treated immediately, let's get out of here first! You hold the noble man and follow me!"
Picking up a long sword, the stone leader strode forward, and the sword qi was vertical and horizontal with the swing of his wrist, killing a bloody path for life.
The remaining guards saw the leader's intentions and roared one after another, entangled their opponents regardless of their casualties.
The stone leader strode forward, and the servant girl staggered behind with the nobleman, and the sound of the fight gradually faded away, and the sky was completely dark.
"The wilderness is too dangerous at night, and the nobles need treatment, so we stop here. โ
A few swords cut through the thorns blocking the road, and the stone leader entered the stone cave first, and quickly turned around, "Safety, you help the nobleman in." โ
He stayed outside, erased the slash marks of the sword, and laid down the Isolation Array Plate, turned and strode into the cave.
The maidservant had taken out a night pearl and skillfully placed it in the cave groove, and the darkness was immediately expelled.
"Stone Collar, save your nobleman!" her face turned pale, and her voice trembled with fear and was a little slurred.
Shi Ling nodded, half-knelt beside the nobleman, grabbed her hand, and said in a deep voice: "This girl, I need some water to rinse, you should prepare quickly." โ
"Good!" the maid turned her hand and took out the blue jade basin and the large vat of sealed spring water, tore off the sealing film and poured the water into the basin.
Poofโโ
There was a muffled sound, quite piercing in the closed grotto, and the maidservant's hand shook, and the spring water fell to the ground.
Her eyes widened in horror as she watched the stone collar draw her blood-stained sword a little, her body trembling.
Shi Ling turned around, his expression was still cold, "You are a loyal servant, so go to Huangquan with the nobles and continue to serve." โ
As he spoke, he strode closer, raised his sword and stabbed.
But at this moment, a strange look suddenly appeared on the stone collar's face, he stared at the maidservant for a long time, and said slowly: "It's you?"
The maid's face was still pale, but the horror had disappeared, and her eyes showed disgust, "With you, you are not qualified to kill this palace!"
Stone Collar frowned, took a slow step, and took another step, the maid had retreated to the edge of the grotto, and the distance between the two was no more than a meter.
But this meter was an unbridgeable chasm, and his burly body fell on his back and fell heavily to the ground.
Between the seven orifices of the mouth and nose, black blood gushed out, and countless tiny creatures could be seen, struggling in the black blood, and soon lost their vitality with the death of the host.
The maid picked up the sword and cut off his head, her face growing paler and her body trembling again.
She looked only fifteen or sixteen years old, and there was irrepressible fear in her immature eyes.
If she hadn't changed her clothes and fed the anti-devouring poison cup in advance, she would have died by now.
Stonecollar is actually their man!
The handmaiden's body trembled more and more, and fear was like a tide, almost drowning her mind.
For a long time, she took a deep breath and forced herself to calm down, her eyes flashing rapidly.
Now, she has no choice but to wait here to see if there is a turnaround.
Otherwise, even if she kills the stone leader, with her cultivation, she will not have a chance to get out of this wilderness.
Putting away the pearl of the night, the grotto fell into darkness, and the maid leaned against the cold stone wall with her legs crossed, forcing herself not to think about the two corpses next to her, and she barely fell asleep after I don't know how long.
A slight sound woke the maidservant girl, and she got up in an instant, and her face began to turn pale again.
"Lord Shi, are you and your nobles inside?"
The maid's eyes lit up slightly, she took a few quick steps to put something on the two corpses, turned around and walked out of the grotto, it was already dark outside.
More than 20 guards were all wounded, and when they saw the maid's eyes lit up, they hurriedly said, "What about the leader and the nobles?"
The maid's eyes swept around, and she turned over her hand and took out a token, which seemed to be gold and non-gold with the infusion of mana, emitting a pure golden light, majestic and noble.
"Xiong Yuan'e, the nineteenth princess of the Great Chu of this palace, the stone collar and the maidservant have all died in order to save the palace. โ
The guards were startled, they naturally recognized the royal token, and hurriedly knelt on the ground, "I don't know the princess of the inferior rank, and I ask the princess to forgive me!"
Xiong Yuan'e looked majestic, "Those who don't know are not guilty, not to mention that you and other loyal guards, when the palace is free from the murder of traitors, there will be a lot of rewards." โ
"Humble swear to defend His Highness to the death!"
Xiong Yuan'e's eyes swept over, and she flashed slightly, "You, you, and you, go into the grotto and carry out the corpse of the stone collar." โ
The three guards who were targeted showed a hint of panic in their eyes, and hurriedly said that they had entered the grotto.
Soon, the bodies of the stone collar and the maidservant were taken out, but at this moment, the three guards screamed, and their bodies rolled to the ground, and they soon died of anger.
The guards were restless for a while, and Xiong Yuan'e shouted, "It's not good, the corpse is poisonous, let's leave immediately!"
No one objected.
It was only at this time that Her Royal Highness the Princess's heart was slightly relieved.
Although I don't know if there are any spies in the guards, at least they are much safer. She inquired, and it turned out that yesterday night, a powerful demon beast suddenly appeared, and the people who attacked the camp were forced to leave, and these guards were able to survive.
The flying car that was blown up, I don't know which one produced it, the quality is simply good, there is nothing to say, and it can still be started after a little cleanup.
Xiong Yuan'e lowered her head and thought, carefully took out a mobile phone, opened it and quickly checked it a few times, printed out a map, and then turned it off immediately. She closed her eyes and handed the map to the guards after a few breaths, "There's a beast hunting camp here, as long as we get there, we'll be safe for the time being." โ
Five days later, a weary procession slowly entered the mountains, each of the ten guards wounded, apparently after a series of fierce battles.
"Stop, who are you, dare to trespass on the beast hunting camp!" several guards looked wary, but did not go further.
Because they smelled the rich blood from these guards, and they were obviously all experienced in a hundred battles.
Of course, the more important reason is that the flying car with a tattered surface.
The guards may not have a high level of cultivation, but after staying in the beast hunting camp for a long time, their eyesight is not bad.
Along the way, the car had obviously suffered a lot of shocks, but it was still probably intact, which was obviously extraordinary.
Could it be the big man who went into the wilderness to hunt?
As the guards turned, the door opened from the inside, and a dazzling woman stepped out. The long skirt is wide and extravagant, and the skirt is embroidered with auspicious clouds, and every line exudes powerful power fluctuations. Between the black clouds, there are only three or four pearl hairpins, and in the sun, there is a bright divine light.
Except for Dazzling, the guards really didn't know how to describe her.
A moment later, the Lord Commander descended on the Teleportation Mountain, and after verifying the token, his voice revealed respect, "Your Excellency, please enter the camp and rest with your guards. โ
Qin Yu retreated to seek an opportunity to break through, but he didn't know that there was a big trouble and he had entered the beast hunting camp.
After placing the nineteen princesses of Da Chu, the commander returned to the study, wiped his face with a hot towel, and sat down a little tired.
Xu Jiao put away the towel with a worried face, "My lord, this matter is not simple. โ
The Great Chu Empire is located in the south, accounting for almost a quarter of the seven empires, and its strength is unrivaled in the world.
Immortal Sect and Demon Dao are such forces, they still have to retreat in front of the Great Chu Empire, otherwise it will be difficult for the Dao system to spread.
Such a princess, Her Royal Highness, is much more noble than the monarchs of some small countries.
But obviously, the princess who entered the camp today is being hunted down.
Saying that he was attacked by demon beasts was just a cover-up, and the injuries of those guards and the traces left by the speeding car were obviously monks' methods. The dignified princess Chu was hunted down and killed, but the princess herself had to cover it up, and the deep meaning revealed in this made people shudder.
The Lord Commander smiled bitterly, "Brother Xu, you and I both know that now it is a bad disaster. He paused, succinctly, "It's going to die." โ
Xu Jiao was worried, "My lord, since His Highness concealed it on his own, we just don't know about it and send them away as soon as possible." โ
"I'm only afraid of Her Royal Highness the Princess, and I won't leave easily. โ
"Agree to all conditions!" Xu Jiao said in a deep voice: "I believe that Her Royal Highness the princess will not force us into a desperate situation, otherwise it will be easy for accidents." โ
The commander seemed to smile, "Brother Xu is so angry, Nanyue is a vassal of Great Chu, do you still dare to move a highness?"
Xu Jiao's heart was slightly relieved, and he became more and more calm, "Move Her Royal Highness the Princess, we naturally don't dare, but we can always afford to hide if we can't afford to provoke it, I think this result, Your Highness doesn't want to see it." โ
"Haha, I'm fortunate to have Brother Xu to help me out. โ
"My lord is strategizing, why use me to solve it. โ
On the second day, the Lord Commander asked to see Her Royal Highness the Princess, and left after a while, calling all the high-level officials of the Beast Hunting Camp for urgent consultations.
"Ladies and gentlemen, regarding the identity of Your Highness, I have ordered a blockade, and I hope you will not leak it at will, so as not to cause trouble. The Commander's eyes swept widely, "Alright, let's discuss the requirements of the nobles." โ
Xu Jiao stood up, "Your nobleman has asked us to provide some supplies and guards for her in the beast hunting camp, and there must be ten Divine Soul Cultivators. โ
After saying it briefly, he nodded and sat down.
The commander said: "The safety of the nobles is more important than everything, and the candidates you propose must be able to be thoroughly controlled, otherwise something goes wrong, and you and I will be unlucky." โ
A military general said tentatively: "Has the commander asked Du Nanguan for instructions about the nobles?"
The Commander's face was expressionless, "Your Excellency has asked us to keep it a secret. โ
The room fell silent.
Everyone understands that this is to send people to death.
There was a reminder from the commander that this candidate must be a confidant, and thinking of this, the faces of the high-level leaders of the beast hunting camp were ugly.
The henchmen of the Divine Soul Realm, for them, are also extremely heavy bargaining chips, but now they have to be thrown out in vain.
The Commander said lightly: "This Commander is the head of the Beast Hunting Battalion, and it is my responsibility to do this, and I am responsible for three places." โ
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the venue was slightly relaxed, and there were still seven places, and everyone could get together with one person.
Half an hour later, the list of ten divine souls appeared, and the high-level participants left in a hurry.
They have a lot of things to do next, such as...... Let his subordinates be willing to die.
Of course, the guards that the nobles want are not as simple as ten divine souls, and the Yuanying monks need a hundred.
Of course, in the eyes of the executives, this is a very simple matter.
Yuan Jingzhen returned to the study, paused for a moment to visit four colleagues one after another, and did not spend much time before taking his leave.
There was a knock on the door, and Yuan was stunned, "Come in." โ
The slightly cloudy eyes of the monk pushed the door in, gray hair, "See your lord." โ
"Zheng Hai, are you clear about everything?"
"Yes, sir. โ
"Do you have complaints?"
"The life of a lowly man is saved by an adult. โ
Yuan said lightly: "After you leave, Ben will promise that he will accept your son as a righteous son." โ
Zheng Hai looked excited and knelt down on one knee, "Thank you, sir!"
A cold light flashed in Yuan's eyes, "Among the guards, there is one person named Qin Yu, who is going to ask you to kill him with your own hands." โ
Zheng Hai sneered, "My subordinates will definitely do it!"
