This night, after picking up Lao Wan, he sent him back to the Wanji Wonton Shop and sent someone to pick up the old man to treat Lao Wan, until very late, Mi Huang returned to the East Palace.

A large area of dark clouds like those unresting souls gathered in the night sky, covering the moonlight that night, extremely dark, above the main hall of the East Palace, Si Qin had simply hung up the white banner of memorial, and Aunt Liu's coffin was placed in the center.

Mi Huang looked at Aunt Liu's spirit card in front of him.

A dark cloud hangs over my heart.

The life and death of 50,000 displaced people, the death of Aunt Liu, the death of Xianqi, plus Zhou Mu's disaster relief case last year, the whole Zhou family survived except for the unsuspecting Zhou Jinghua, no one was spared, and the Xian family only left the unaware Xianqing and a group of thugs......

One pile down, enough to kill Ruo Ao Yuejiao a thousand times and ten thousand times.

It's not a pity to die.

However, there is no strong evidence or witness who can testify to the various major crimes committed by Yue Jiao, and even the crime of rebellion.

All that can be extinguished are extinguished.

All evidence that can be destroyed is destroyed.

She had to admit what Ling Yin Zi said, they really had no way to take Yue Jiao, unless they forcibly forced him to rebel.

Now the only one who can speak is Situ Nan, who is still imprisoned in the prison of the Criminal Prison Division.

Situ Nan!

But this guy has a hard mouth and is quite cunning.

Si Qin and Si Hua quietly lit a pillar of yellow incense for her, "Lady, put incense on the pillar for Aunt Liu!"

"Hmm!"

Taking Huang Xiang, she quietly kowtowed twice in front of Aunt Liu's coffin, knelt down and asked, "There is still no news from Si Jian's side?"

"Yes, Lady, there is no news from the Sword Commander. ”

Yoyuki nodded, he didn't know how to answer.

Today, the princess sent two waves of people to respond, if Cheng Youtu arrived near Yingdu, I am afraid that he would have received people a long time ago.

But there is no news yet.

Cheng Youtu and Ah Zhu, they are afraid that they are really fierce and lucky.

Mi Huang looked up at the Yingdu Wangcheng outside the layers of palaces, and now in addition to the Zhu Palace, which is like a lighthouse, the brightly lit Ruo Ao Mansion is still lit day and night, and the sound of laughter and waves drifts into this deep palace with the night wind far away, and the rest of the place is dark and silent, and Jingling County, which cannot be seen in the farther east, she doesn't know if Cheng Jia and Azhu can come back, and now she doesn't doubt the danger of Ruo Ao Yuejiao.

This is an even more dangerous existence than the first wolf in the forest.

Yang Youji frowned and said, "Lady, should we temporarily release Situ Nan tomorrow?" ”

"Let me think!

"Yes, lady!"

Si Qin, Si Hua and the others left a few palace lamps on the side of Feng's bed, and then quietly exited the dormitory.

Mi Huang walked into the heavy bed curtain alone, took out from her neck the jade pendant that Azhu had left behind when she took her place to lure out the hidden assassin, and an umbrella that Cheng Jia had left with her, put the two objects on her phoenix bed, and touched them.

Now there are only two options in front of her.

But either choice is difficult.

If Situ Nan is released, there will be no witness who may bring down Ruo Yuejiao, and Aunt Liu's death will not be officially recruited back by 50,000 displaced people.

If she doesn't let go, then Cheng Jia and Ah Zhu will continue to be hunted down, and no one will even be able to fight against all this together...... At this moment, Mi Huang didn't know why, but she felt that if Cheng Jia saw all this today, she would feel the same mood as her.

What the hell is she supposed to do?

＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊＊

At this time, Cheng Jia was really in danger, and there were many killing opportunities.

Those who are good at playing seek power.

Those who seek first are invincible, so they do not seek victory, but seek defeat first.

He had already prepared for the worst: everyone would die with him, and Yue Jiao would not leave a trace of life and let them return to Yingdu.

The other party mobilized thousands of people to chase and kill him alone, how honored it was for him to be a lonely soul who crossed over, in this Spring and Autumn Era, he was chased and killed by a thousand troops of a small person, but looking at the remaining fifty or so secret guards of Zhou Zao, even Azhu picked up a short sword to protect himself, Cheng Jia only felt as if there was a boulder hanging on his head, which could crush the exhausted people in the forest or even crush him to death at any time, and he himself was seriously injured, covering the wound that was still oozing blood, and watching the wound medicine they brought was almost exhausted.

In the jungle of the dark night, after Ya finished medicating a secret guard, he shook the porcelain bottle of Jiulixiang, frowned at him and said, "Childe, the last bottle of wound medicine has also been used up." ”

The secret guard who checked the weapons and equipment also said, "Childe, now I only have thirty crossbows and fifty swords left, and all the arrows have been used up. ”

"I'm almost out of the wild fruits and meat I found last time. ”

Ah Zhu looked at the empty carriage, only some water bags remained, and said uneasily.

Run out of ammunition and food.

Everyone's expressions were solemn.

Cheng Jia was silent for a long time, looked at the village in front of him with swaying firelight, glanced at Ya, and said, "Since there is fire and people in front, there must be a village, and you can replenish it." The other party's target is me, and if I leave alone, you will be able to live!"

This was the most effective way he could think of, otherwise everyone would have to bury him together.

"Childe, this is absolutely not good!"

"We'd rather all die in battle than escort Gongzi back to Yingdu!"

Ya pulled out his long knife from the dead assassin on the ground, and said to the guards without hesitation, "Later, we will all cover the departure of Gongzi and Miss Azhu, and drag the assassins behind!"

"Yes, Commander!"

Everyone clenched their swords tightly.

Ah Zhu's eyes were slightly red as she looked at the short dagger in everyone's hands, now she is equivalent to a drag, but she also has to protect her son.

"It's not time for you to die!"

Cheng Jia frowned and immediately shouted.

"But Childe, our lives were born to be given by the Cheng family, and now is the time for us to repay the Cheng family. Ya said firmly, everyone bowed their heads, and Gongzi has never treated them well, and after their death, their families must be worry-free.

"No, we'll all go back alive together!"

Cheng Jiaren took out a map and studied it, and said, "Twenty miles to the west, and then to the east, along the way will be a deserted wilderness slope, the terrain is open, easy to find the enemy, this route should be easier to walk than the current mountain and forest area, the mountain and forest roads are difficult, and it is most likely to encounter ambushes in this night, so we will go this way instead." ”

"But the open terrain is more unfavorable to us, and more conducive to the tracking Assassins to discover our tracks. ”

Ya raised his concerns, "We have to ensure that Gongzi can return to Yingdu in absolute safety!"

"No road is absolutely safe these days. There were pursuers and assassins along the way, and we had to fight, and if we ran into three or four small villages along the way, if there were assassins and ambushes in the villages, our whereabouts would inevitably be exposed, and even if we didn't, we would continue to be hunted down if we found supplies from the villagers. The only way to do this is to take a dangerous road. Cheng Jia frowned and said, his eyes falling on the empty arrow naan on everyone's back.

Their arrows must be resupplied quickly.

"But if you go that way, the carriage won't work, but Childe, you still have injuries and need to rest. Ya said worriedly.

"What's the use of a carriage without a life?"

Cheng Jia raised his eyebrows and looked at the two or three carriages on the side and said, while looking at a purple bamboo robe and black official boots that he didn't know if it was his own blood or the blood of the enemy, he frowned, "As long as we have two feet, even if we go, we can walk back to Yingdu, it's just a matter of time." ”

"But the carriage has to be kept. Cheng Jia said again.

Ya nodded, and the people obeyed the order to start again, and sent people to explore the way.

The convoy of fifty men zigzagged westward, and after about an hour of march in the darkness of the night, it avoided a small village, and a small hill appeared in front of it, and when the wind blew, the tall reeds on the hill overflowed over the heads of the people, and the slightly shorter ones, such as Azhu, could hardly see anyone in the night.

The crowd could only follow in the direction of the tall carriage with torches in front of them.

Cheng Jia looked at the reeds all over the mountains in front of him, and his heart sank, this reed field is really a good place to kill people and sink corpses.

Cheng Jia, who was walking in the middle, was trying to order everyone to be careful, when there was a sudden sound of frightening birds flapping wings from the reeds in front of them, everyone was shocked, and when they looked up, they saw that the secret guard who was responsible for exploring the road in front had already exchanged hands with people, and the pursuers had rushed to the front of them, setting up an ambush on all the roads they had to pass, which was really a net.

"It's not good, there is an ambush, quick, cover Childe. ”

Ya's face changed drastically, and he gave an order decisively, and all the secret guards immediately rushed forward one after another, blocking around Cheng Jia and Ah Zhu.

The ambush soldier in front looked at the carriage that was a cut above the reeds, pointed to the carriage's carport and said, "They're over there, shoot quickly!"

Whoa-whoa-whoa!

A wave of arrows flew towards the three wagons,

"Get down on your stomach!"

Ah Zhu, who was following him, screamed and was pulled down by him, and everyone was prostrate among the reeds, holding their breath: these chasing assassins are really endless!

Cheng Jia frowned, he didn't expect that not long after a round of fighting, this wave of chasers had already run in front of them, and this group of pursuers also brought long-range weapons such as bows and arrows, but all they had left was the sword in their hands.

Cheng Jia's face became solemn.

The reed field had become a killing field, with the guards and ambushes in front of them, and they could only cope with the rounds of arrows and feathers that were being shot at them.

At this time, Cheng Jia kept taking deep breaths while dealing with the arrows that were being shot.

A moment of life and death.

Calm down, he must be calm!

Taking advantage of a round of arrow feathers to stop the work of the arrows, Cheng Jia opened a piece of reed and poked his head out, hurriedly glanced at the surrounding terrain, and thought that where there were reeds, there must be lakes, yes, he had to use this terrain, otherwise everyone would die here.

The sound of dense fighting in the distance, the dark guards were surrounded by a large number of ambush soldiers, no matter how good their martial arts skills were, with one enemy ten, it is impossible to fight one against hundred, Cheng Jiayi gritted his teeth and quickly whispered a few words to Ya, "Ya will wait for me to climb on the roof of the carriage, and then wait for my order to start counterattacking!"

Ya's eyes were full of uncertainty, "Childe, this can't be done! It's too dangerous!"

"Because I want the wagon to borrow arrows. ”

"How do you borrow arrows for a carriage?"

Ya was still puzzled, but Cheng Jia clenched the sword in his hand and had already bounced off the ground, "How do you know if you don't try?" Facing an enemy several times their size, Cheng Jia gritted his teeth and forced himself to calm down, and at the same time quickly climbed up to the carriage shed, and a monkey hung upside down with a golden hook and climbed onto the carriage shed.

Now they only have swords and crossbows.

It's a matter of success or failure!

Standing on top of the carriage shed, he took down the torch from the roof of the carriage, illuminated his face, and shouted, "I am the one you want to hunt down, and if you want to assassinate me, come at me alone!"

Seeing this, Ya immediately exclaimed, "Childe, don't!"

Childe is deliberately exposing his whereabouts and attracting the enemy's attack, how can this work!

Cheng Jia knew that he would inevitably become the target of public criticism.

Sure enough, on the other side of the hill, the other party shouted, gave up the encirclement of those secret guards, and all of them outflanked Cheng Jia and one person, and at the same time turned the bow and arrow to aim at him, "Everyone is aimed at the people in the carriage, shoot!"

Thousands of arrows and feathers shot at them, and Cheng Jia jumped out of the carriage in an instant, and Ya quickly caught him.

All the arrows were shot at the three wagons.

Time is urgent, Cheng Jia said: "Quick, all the arrows are drawn, and start fighting back!"

Under the cover of the carriage and the reed field, Ya Daxi quickly took off the bow and crossbow on his back, and then plucked the arrow feathers from the carriage, "Start the counterattack!"

With the resistance of the carriage, all the enemy's arrows and feathers were inserted into their carriage, and their originally empty arrows were replenished in a short time, Cheng Jia's method worked, and all the secret guards abandoned their swords and switched to crossbows, quickly put the arrow feathers on the crossbow, and pulled the trigger.

It's a battle of crossbows and bows.

Although the speed of the arrows on the crossbow is not as fast as that of the bow, the penetration and range of the crossbow are much higher than the bow at this stage, and with the carriage as a barrier, their arrow feathers are endless, even if they turn back, in such a dark night, the opponent cannot quickly recover the sharp arrows that come from them.

Ya climbed into the troika with his men and started an offensive and defensive battle with the opponent.

Seeing that the enemies on the opposite side were decreasing, Ya said in surprise, "Childe, this method has succeeded!"

Cheng Jia breathed a sigh of relief, this time he returned to Yingdu to experience more life and death than he had experienced in this life, stroking the wound on his back and cracking, he didn't expect that in a hurry, Zhuge Liang's grass boat could be used to borrow arrows, and said with a smile: "Okay, after eliminating them, let's leave here quickly." ”

"Well, everyone stepped up to destroy them. ”

Ya nodded, everyone had weapons and no longer worried, strangled each other and worked harder in the vast wilderness, layers of dark clouds, pieces of reed flowers flying, there was no shelter on the low hillside except for the carriage, Cheng Jia They occupied the only favorable barrier, and chased and killed those ambushes who did not resist on one side, the fierce fighting sound shocked the beasts, and a miserable scream sounded one after another in the reeds.

But in this high reed field, there is still an unknown danger stinging quietly, wrapped from head to toe in black night clothes, curled up, like a fierce beast waiting to pounce and bite, quietly blending into the surrounding night, quietly passing through the large reeds towards Cheng Jia and them.

If it weren't for their occasional lash fanning.

Who would have thought that there would be more Assassins lurking in this reed field?

Take his life and go back to receive the reward!
