Chapter 0014: He Came Up from the Snow
"Does anyone know my name?" Du Xuan asked in surprise.
"The name of the son has to be given by the king, the son has just been born and suffered an accident, the king did not have time to give the name, I heard the lady say before, temporarily call the son Xuan'er, it should be the nickname given by the lady to the son. This nickname should be known to no one except Mrs., Grandpa, and me. Yu'er said.
In this way, the bamboo slips were left by the mother, and this Xuan character is the most obvious signal. ”
"If the lady sent someone, why didn't she stay in the villa and wait? If there is danger, you are not afraid of others looking at it?"
Yu'er looked at the snow on the stone table again, there was a flower stand to cover it, there was not much snow on the table, it seemed that the bamboo slips had been left for several days. Maybe the people who came waited for a long time and left hopelessly, they should not have imagined that with the strength of the two of us, they would come on such a snowy day. It's not safe here, we have to get out of here. ”
The two didn't dare to stay, and went straight down the mountain along the road.
Coming to a shelter at the foot of the mountain, the carriage was still waiting as planned.
It was nearly dusk, and the wind and snow continued unabated. The carriage sailed against the wind and went straight back to the capital.
Tired from running all the way, both of them were a little tired, squinting at each other and pretending to sleep.
Well?!
Du Xuan's eyes suddenly opened, his divine sense poked out of the car, the snowflakes were rolling, and the sound of falling to the ground was clearly discerning. But other than that, Du Xuan clearly sensed a strong aura of murder and deliberate suppression.
In the jungle on both sides of the official road, four figures on the left and right were quickly approaching the carriage under the cover of the snowstorm!
In two lives, Du Xuan had never been in contact with martial arts, and it was only after an accident at the Yuelai Inn that he predicted this sudden crisis in advance.
Leaving the palace at night and being ambushed, Qingfeng Gorge encountered a killer, and the strength of hiding in the shadows shot twice, Du Xuan was in a coma, and he had no intuitive feeling of danger, but the killing opportunity brought by this ambush at the moment was real.
Du Xuan was shocked, with his baby body and Yu'er's weakness, how could the two of them stop it?
This thought was only for a moment.
Shout!
Hiss!
Rumble!
Yes!
The sound of metal breaking through the air, the neighing of horses, the sound of horses falling to the ground, and the screams of the groom sounded one after another, and the moving carriage suddenly rose into the air and slammed into the ground!
The carriage hit the ground and bounced again, and the water in the carriage was violently bumpy.
Yu'er, who was in a half-dream, suddenly woke up, panicked, and subconsciously reached out to hug Du Xuan, but the carriage that had just bounced up threw her whole body out and smashed heavily on the horizontal board of the carriage.
Du Xuan was surprisingly calm, and hurriedly grabbed a horizontal log on the bottom plate of the carriage with both hands, and his weak body was prostrate on the floor to avoid being thrown out of the carriage. In the process, he sensed that four Assassins had emerged from the jungle on both sides of the official road and were flying towards the carriage.
Tread the snow without a trace!
Presumably, the four Assassins did a good job, breaking through the air in the wind and snow, stepping through the thick snow, but not making a sound.
Du Xuan's brows furrowed, and cold sweat soaked through the clothes inside.
Poof!
The Assassin was as swift as the wind, and in an instant he came to the carriage and swung his sword without hesitation.
Four swords, two left and two right, two up and two down, passed through the burlap curtain and the wooden board, the blade flashed coldly, and the blade of the sword approached Du Xuan.
It seems that the swordsman has been planning for a long time, and he firmly locked on Du Xuan outside the carriage, hoping to kill him with one blow.
The deadly sword was unstoppable, unabated, and it was only two inches away from Du Xuan.
At the moment of life and death, Du Xuan closed his eyes in despair.
At this moment, a sharp pain suddenly came from his brain, which was exactly the same as what he had encountered in Sanxingdui Museum in his previous life and at the Yuelai Inn not long ago. Immediately after the brain roared, and the divine consciousness saw, many complex patterns appeared out of thin air, and the patterns rotated rapidly, and then disappeared in an instant.
All this happened extremely suddenly, Du Xuan's heart was horrified, and when he opened his eyes, the tips of the four swords were only an inch away from him!
Strangely, he noticed that the four swords had suddenly slowed down, slow enough for him to react urgently. Before he could think about it, Du Xuan's body lying on the bottom plate, like a silkworm chrysalis stung by a wasp, twisted very ugly, narrowly avoided the sword stabbed at the same time, and rolled to the back end of the carriage.
......
The four Assassins standing on either side of the carriage could not accept this result. They received an urgent secret order, and just before they could rush to the villa, they found the carriage at the foot of the mountain and identified the two people in the carriage. Followed all the way, and deliberately chose this location that is easy to ambush.
"Either the target dies or you die!"
The instructions they received were very simple, so their actions were simple and efficient, first stabbing the horses and grooms to death with darts, causing chaos in the carriage and cutting off the possibility of the two of them escaping through the carriage.
Killing a little girl and a baby in this way, they didn't feel the slightest bit embarrassed. Four people, two left and two right, lock on the main target and shoot at the same time.
They believed that under the joint efforts, even Shangguan Feixue, who died inexplicably in Qingfeng Gorge a few months ago, would not be able to escape with his whole body, and that was one of the few supreme masters in the Enlightened Kingdom.
It's a shame that the inevitable blow misses, and the target is still a baby who can be handled at will, isn't it?
Rumble!
As soon as the blow missed, the four swords held their swords in their hands, and the cross, roof, and curtain of the carriage shattered violently, leaving only a lone bottom plate still attached to the wheels of the carriage. At either end of the floor were a little girl in a coma and a five-month-old baby, like two poor fish thrown ashore.
The four swordsmen did not stop, abandoned the little girl, and swung their swords directly to the baby boy.
......
Whoosh!
Plop! Plop!
At this moment, a black shadow suddenly appeared behind the official road, flying towards the wind, less than two feet away from the four swordsmen.
What kind of master could appear behind him so silently? The four swordsmen were shocked. Before he could react, the black shadow waved his hand, and two darts rushed out, breaking through the air, and the two most advanced swordsmen on Du Xuan's left and right sides snorted and threw themselves on the snow.
The figure of the black shadow rushing forward did not stop, and it was one foot closer to the carriage!
"Do it!"
The sudden change caused the two swordsmen to pause, and one of them immediately broke off.
If the target doesn't die, they have to die. The two of them made the most correct choice in an instant, regardless of the comers, and swung their swords to take Du Xuan directly!
Poof!
Hurry, too fast!
The black shadow came first, and the two swordsmen only felt a black shadow breaking through the air, and at the moment when the tip of the sword was about to pierce Du Xuan's body, two cold lights flashed, and the necks of the two swordsmen were cold, and they fell out of breath.
The surroundings fell silent for a moment.
Killing the two swordsmen in an instant, the man in black was expressionless, put his sword into the sheath, grabbed Du Xuan and Yu'er, and flew down from the carriage on tiptoe, stepping on the snow.
