Chapter 91: A Moment of Life and Death
Mu Yunqiao closed her eyes and waited, but she waited for a long time and didn't see Ming Tao speak, and when she secretly opened her eyes, she saw Ming Tao holding his long sword and fighting with a man in black with a long worker behind him and a big knife in his hand not far away.
The black-clothed man's knife skills were not very prominent, but his knife was extremely deadly, and every time he attacked Ming Tao's vital point. Ming Tao's swordsmanship is very skillful, but because of physical problems, his originally light moves have become heavy and abnormal. Therefore, the two of you come and go, but neither of them can take advantage. It's just that Mu Yunqiao knows Ming Tao's physical condition very well, and he must not be able to last long.
Looking at Ming Tao and the two of them fighting in the distance, Mu Yunqiao was anxious but unable to do anything. Because of Ming Tao, the place where they fought loved you not far away, but she couldn't hear a sound. Obviously, Ming Tao deliberately took her to a safe place to deal with the killer alone. She couldn't just leave the ox cart, otherwise she might not be able to help Ming Tao, and she herself would be hurt by the formation. It's just that she just watched Ming Tao desperately there, but she didn't do anything, how could this be.
Mu Yunqiao looked left and right and found that this place was actually very close to Shujiazhuang, maybe she could ask Shu Li for help. Just do it, she pulled the chasing wind and rode directly to the back of the chasing wind, sat down like others riding horses, pinched the horse's belly hard, and commanded the chasing wind to run towards Shujiazhuang. Now she can only hope that Ming Tao can hold out until she moves in to save the soldiers.
Mu Yunqiao rode crookedly on the back of the wind, and almost fell off the horse more than once, but she still insisted on running in the direction of Shujiazhuang at the fastest speed. Because she knew that every second faster she had, Ming Tao would be able to get out of danger a little faster.
People say that the old horse knows the way and has a good memory of chasing the wind, even if all Mu Yunqiao's attention is on chasing the wind, it still runs all the way to Shujiazhuang. When Mu Yunqiao arrived at Shujiazhuang, it was only a matter of a few minutes. When he saw the gate of Shujiazhuang, Mu Yunqiao jumped off the horse and ran towards the gate.
"Uncle Xiang, open the door! Open the door! Mu Yunqiao banged on the door and shouted.
"Young Master Qiao, didn't you just leave?" Seeing Mu Yunqiao Xiangbo at the door, he asked in surprise.
"Where's Shuli? Xiao Zhan has an accident, hurry up! Pushing away Xiangbo, Mu Yunqiao was about to run towards the courtyard, but he didn't expect to bump into the inside, and Shu Li.
"You don't have to worry, I'll go and save Mingtao." Ignoring Mu Yunqiao, Shu Li rushed directly to the place where the formation was different. He had already discovered that the formation had changed, but he didn't expect that it would be Ming Tao who had an accident inside.
Looking at Shu Li's distant figure, Mu Yunqiao sat directly on the ground, and the whole person was like a deflated ball, not moving.
"Xiao Zhan, you must hold on!" Looking into the distance, Mu Yunqiao muttered quietly. She can only do this at most, and how she will end up depends on Ming Tao's own.
Ming Tao endured his dizziness and worked hard to fight the killer, he knew that his situation was very bad, as long as he was not careful, he might die, just thinking of Xiao Qiao, who was still waiting in the car, he had to hold on to the end. As long as he was alive, he wouldn't allow anyone to hurt Little Joe.
"Lord Xian, I don't think you have to insist, you still have to be obedient, so as not to make trouble." The man in black stopped attacking, and a somber voice came from behind his hood. This virtuous king really lives up to his reputation, not only is his martial arts strong, but even his temper is stubborn, ordinary people have already fainted after shedding so much blood, but he is still fighting with himself. He admired but disliked such an opponent, because it would cause him a lot of trouble in his mission. He also wanted to fight quickly, but his knife was too laborious to use, and his internal strength was about to run out in such a short time. But it seems that His Royal Highness the prince no longer has any strength. Maybe he should give up the broadsword and use the bow and arrow, so that he can save a little strength.
"If you want me to give up resistance, that's impossible. If you have the ability, you will kill the king directly. Ming Tao looked at the killer and said with a sneer. He really didn't have the strength anymore, and even standing had to be supported by the long sword in his hand to keep himself from falling. It's just that he won't give up lightly when he says anything. Even if the final result is the same, he will still have to fight until the last moment.
"That's what I mean!" Looking at Ming Tao, the man in black dropped the knife in his hand, took out the bow and arrow behind his back, bent the bow and arrows, and the action was done in one go, the man in black did not hesitate, and directly pulled the longbow into a full moon, and an arrow as fast as lightning flew towards Ming Tao.
Looking at the arrows that were getting closer and closer, Ming Tao knew that he would not be able to dodge this time, and he did not bother to dodge, he just turned his eyes to the direction of the ox cart, wanting to take another look at the person he liked but couldn't say at the last moment of his life. But when he saw that there was no familiar figure on the ox cart, the whole person became excited. He deliberately hid Xiao Qiao's figure, just because he didn't want this killer to find Xiao Qiao, but how could she run around casually by herself! Even if this killer was also at the end of the crossbow, it was still not something that Xiao Qiao's half-kung fu could deal with, but now it was useless for him to worry about him, because the arrow that he was destined to dodge was already close to his chest.
"Lord Wang......" Because Ming Tao is missing, Zhang Sheng has been looking for many days in this vicinity, but he has not found Ming Tao and Xiao Qiao, just now he inadvertently heard the sound of fighting here, but he didn't expect to see such a thrilling scene. It's just that in addition to exclaiming, it's too late for Mingtao. This made him chagrined.
Hearing Zhang Sheng's voice, Ming Tao smiled, having him at least ensure Xiao Qiao's safety, and that was enough. He is destined to have no chance with Xiao Qiao in this life, and this ending is not bad.
"Ding ......" The sound of metal clashing came out, causing everyone's faces to freeze at the same time. Whether it was the joyful look in the killer's eyes or the horrified look in Zhang Sheng's eyes, they all looked at Ming Tao's chest, and at this time, at some point, there was an extra silver ingot weighing five taels on Ming Tao's chest, and then, the silver ingot and the arrow landed at the same time. It saved Ming Tao at a critical moment, and at the same time made Ming Tao and Zhang Sheng break out in a cold sweat at the same time.
Looking at Zhang Sheng, who was approaching him, the man in black wanted to fly away, but unfortunately he had just jumped up only two meters before someone hit his left leg with a branch. Fall directly to the ground.
"You still want to leave after hurting my friend on my turf?" Shu Li approached the man in black step by step, and looked at the man in black with a sneer. He was too bold, and he didn't give him any relief. Therefore, he will definitely not let him go.
"This is the wilderness, your place? If you want to kill, you can kill, and you don't have to find so many reasons. Knowing that it was impossible for him to leave alive, the man in black looked at Shu Li coldly and said. He has been a killer for many years, and he is all too familiar with the rules of the jungle in this world. In the past, he was lucky not to meet too strong opponents, but now he has admitted it.
"Within a hundred miles of this is the place of Shujiazhuang, why is it not my territory!" Shu Li approached the man in black step by step and said with a smile. It's just that the smile on his face not only didn't make the man in black feel reassured, but he became even more scared, but he couldn't move now. I could only lie there and wait for Shu Li's next move.
"Shujiazhuang? You say this is Shujiazhuang fifty years ago? The man in black looked at Shu Li in surprise. He knew that this time he was really more than lucky. It's just that he would never have thought that Ming Tao would have something to do with Shujiazhuang.
"That's right, the Shu family hasn't been out for decades, but that doesn't mean that there is no one in the Shu family. So you can die blind. The last step of the Shu family stopped exactly one meter in front of the man in black. A withered branch was held in Shu Li's hand.
Looking at the branch in Shu Li's hand, the man in black closed his eyes in resignation. It's just that he suddenly felt that his body was actually being held up from behind and wanted to take him away.
Such an accident made him involuntarily open his eyes, he actually saw the same person as himself, although he only saw a pair of eyes, but he still recognized the person at a glance, he pushed the person away hard, he didn't want her to save him, that was just one more person to accompany the funeral......
"Shu Li, this person is my friend, I can guarantee that he will never take over any more tasks related to King Xian, and I ask you to let him go." The night spirit didn't let go of the man in black, just looked at Shu Li, as long as he agreed to let go of the senior brother here, then they could leave here safely, as for Ming Tao's subordinate, he would not pose a threat to her.
"What do you think?" Shu Li looked at the night spirit, and then at Ming Tao, since Ming Tao and the night spirit are friends. He really doesn't want to make random decisions. In the end, he could only hand over the decision to Ming Tao, after all, it was a matter of Ming Tao's safety, how could he make his own decisions.
"Let them go!" Ming Tao said with a wry smile. The fact that the night spirit was able to save this person in such a timely manner just now shows that she has actually been nearby all along, although she did not say anything to save him, but she did not take the opportunity to join forces with this man in black to deal with him, otherwise he would not have been able to hold out until Shu Li's arrival. He had to return this favor. At the same time, he naturally didn't want to see her hurt, so he could only let them go.
"Yeling, thank you, Your Highness King Xian!" With Ming Tao's consent, the night spirit was about to leave with the man in black in his arms.
"Night Spirit, although this king doesn't want to kill you, it doesn't mean that this king can let go of all the people who come to chase and kill this king because of you, so this king only gives you this last chance to save people, I hope you don't show up next time, otherwise don't blame this king for not giving you face." Ming Tao said affirmatively behind the Night Spirit.
"Eidolon understands!" After turning around and staring at Ming Tao for a long time, the Night Spirit nodded back. Just because she was a little similar to Mu Yunqiao, Ming Tao could let her go again and again, which already surprised her. She didn't think about embarrassing Mingtao for the sake of others. It's just that the person in front of her says that she wants to save everything. Not only because he was her senior brother, but also because he was her only friend in the Night Moon Pavilion. If she wanted to watch him die, she would never be able to do it.
