Chapter 269: Deficit (4)
Xu Manxiu immediately noticed the movement under the mountain, and looked at Ah Qiu's delay in returning, there must be something related to this matter.
"Miss Yan, there's movement at the bottom of the mountain......"
She still couldn't let go of Ah Qiu in her heart, but as soon as she heard the news from the mountain, she immediately became alert, "What's the matter?"
Xu Manxiu was silent for a moment and shook his head and said, "They should have discovered us and brought a lot of people up the mountain." ”
"The last time they patrolled the mountains, it was clear that they had been deceived by us, but this time Chenyue came, and now that they have disappeared, they suddenly came with troops. Could it be that Chenyue is informing?"
"I don't think so, Na Chenyue is right, as long as you find a way down the mountain in the north, you can transfer all the people on the mountain. ”
Yan Song shook his head, "Even if what Chen Yue said is right, but now that the Lingshan Army is approaching, it is difficult to transfer the wounded here in this short period of time...... Now there is no other way, I will lead them away, you and Linglong take the opportunity to take the wounded away, as far as we can. ”
Xu Manxiu grabbed her, his cold eyes were like the snow of the cold winter moon, "You will only send you to death if you are so reckless, I have a better way, you take everyone down the mountain to the north first, remember, don't look back." ”
"What about you?"
Xu Manxiu chuckled, "Don't worry, the mountain people have their own clever plans, you go quickly!" Although Yan Song didn't know what his plan was, he didn't have time to discuss these things at the moment, but he just believed that Xu Manxiu could adapt to the situation and solve the current trouble smoothly.
Towards the north side of the mountain, where the sun does not often shine, most of them grow some shade-loving creatures, the air is humid and a little cold, and you should pay more attention to the slippery road under your feet. Linglong walked ahead, she had some experience in marching and fighting with her father in the past, so she groped ahead. Most of the villagers behind him supported each other, but the strong man from before was left walking alone.
"Miss, do you see if that is Lord Hai?" Ah Chun pointed to a figure flying through the woods, the speed was too fast to see clearly, and it was just an ordinary bird flying by. But if Lord Hai is nearby, is it that Yuqian has already sent troops to come, after all, there is such a big thing in Jiangnan, and the imperial court will do something. Who will come? General Shen or Fengchen?
"Miss, I'll go ahead and take a look!" Ah Xia ran to the front, and she pondered what Xu Manxiu said at the end of the line. It's been a long time, Xu Manxiu still hasn't caught up, what method is he going to use, and he began to be a little worried in his heart, as well as the missing Ah Qiu. No matter what, she couldn't move on with peace of mind.
She whispered to Ah Chun, "You let Linglong take everyone down, don't look back." I have to go back......"
"Eh, Miss, Little ......" Ah Chun suppressed his voice, but Yan Song had already walked back on his own. Not far ahead, there was the hope of life, but she insisted on turning back.
Not long after leaving, she still didn't hear the movement of the Lingshan Army, could it be that Xu Manxiu had already lured these people away, but where was he, why didn't he see him?
It was strange that she had walked a short way down the hill, and that there was no one to guard it. There was a faint shade of wind in the trees, and from time to time acacia flowers fell on the trees, and she almost forgot that summer was coming, and it was about to be replaced by the coolness of autumn. Following the direction in which the acacia flowers fell, she walked slowly, always alert, but caught a glimpse of a white figure falling among the thousands of flowers......
"Ah Qiu......" Her hand was slightly blocked in front of her mouth, trying not to make any noise, and the tightly covered mouth even made her a little suffocated. The scene was terrifyingly quiet, and the woman in the middle of the barren mountains was lying on the ground in rags, her eyes closed, and she didn't have the slightest anger. It's just that the messy hair and blue face, as well as the long wound on the face, are shocking......
She reached out to straighten out Ah Qiu's clothes, she knew who did it, she was Ah Qiu's most trusted friend before her death, and it was she who used this friendship to hurt her again and again. The acacia flower is like a funeral, and the funeral of Ah Qiu's life is like God's last favor for her.
Yan Song understood that she was wrong, and Aqiu's blind cat's ability to meet a dead mouse was not the so-called favor of God. Rather, it is an equivalent exchange...... Heaven is always cruel......
"Miss!?" a familiar voice behind her, she clenched her fists and stood up, turning around with tears in her eyes.
The wound on Ah Dong's face had been treated, bandaged with a white cloth, but his eyes were full of morbid excitement, "I didn't think that you would run to die?"
She looked at Ah Dong behind him, there were at least a dozen people, "Ah Qiu was killed by you?"
She had no remorse, "Hmph, so what? It's because she can't do anything and wants to fight with me." ”
The nails slowly embedded in the palms of his hands, "If I guessed correctly, the injury on your face was caused by the young master of the Chen family, and he already hates you so much." ”
Ah Dong usually hated these words the most, and covered his wounds with trembling hands, "Yan Song, do you really think that I won't dare to kill you? I will pay back the injuries I have suffered! I will make you all pay!"
She snorted, and the "madman......" then reached for the dagger at her waist, intending to make a final resistance. She had never practiced martial arts and didn't know much about tactics, but luckily she was able to repel her enemies with her own strength every time, which was a talent, and she was born to save herself.
Between the swords, she dodged quickly, and although she couldn't fight back, she was already faster than those who had practiced martial arts for a few years, and even she herself had never thought about it. In this mortal battle, I can still save myself so hard.
Just as the men abandoned their swords and switched to bows and arrows, she ran deeper into the woods. Try to bend the route so that it is not easy for them to aim, but this time, she took it for granted, their archery skills are very good, and they can pass through the poplars in a hundred steps, and this small wooded obstacle will not help them.
Instead, the arrow grazed her knee, and she couldn't stand up again. The cold feeling on her neck, she knew that this life might end like this, but why was there unwillingness in her heart, the person she wanted to see most before she died, and the words she wanted to tell him the most, did it really become a pity.
This is probably the most sincere desire in the world's mouth for regret before death......
Adon's knife flew into the air, but an arrow pierced her wrist, and she screamed, this time it really pierced her wrist.
In the direction of the arrow, the most sincere desire came slowly like a dream. How could it be? How could Yu Qian be here? This is Jiangnan, he left the jade capital, what should he do with the jade capital city? What about the imperial throne?
"Can't die, can you?" he said lightly, looking at the wound on her knee.
"How could His Highness ...... No, Holy Lord, why did you come here?"
He picked up his sword, and more than 100 soldiers rushed up behind him, surrounding them, except for Ah Dong, the rest of them all swallowed medicine and committed suicide.
"Are you waiting for me for a long time to look at me like this?" Yan Song came back to his senses, only to realize that his eyes had just unconsciously fallen on him.
