Chapter 43: Assassins!
Chapter 43: Assassins!
Looking at the shadow that suddenly appeared in front of him, Li Yiqi shed a trace of cold sweat on his forehead, and said with a wry smile: "It's okay if you're okay, just now I thought you didn't come out of the carriage." ”
"Shut up, it's dangerous, you back off!"
Li Qian'er had an indifferent expression on her face, snorted coldly, and a trace of danger appeared on her body, and murderous intent gradually rose in her crystal eyes.
Li Yiqi didn't care about Li Qian'er's rudeness, or that he was a little used to it, but looked at the remaining four black-clothed killers with a solemn face, and asked with some concern: "You...... Can you handle them alone?"
"Humph!"
With a cold snort, Li Qian'er glanced sideways at Li Yiqi, her thin red lips raised a trace of ridicule, and said lightly: "Is there a difference?"
Hearing this, Li Yiqi was slightly stunned, then nodded silently, didn't say anything, pulled Qi'er who was hiding aside, turned his head and fled in another direction.
Although, when fighting to the death, it is extremely humiliating for a man to leave a woman and run away. However, Li Yiqi is not a fool, and the last thing he can do at a critical moment is to be emotional. He knew that Li Qian'er was the elite selected by Li Jiu from the Annan Army, and she was Shui Bo's granddaughter, and she was an extraordinary woman with strong skills, and the presence of him and Qi'er, two people who didn't know martial arts, would only restrain her hands and feet.
"Don't let him run, kill!"
Seeing this sudden change, the eyes of the remaining black-clothed killers all flashed with a trace of cruelty, their bodies shook, and they all immediately rushed towards Li Yiqi, their target was Li Yiqi, not the dangerous black-clothed girl in front of them.
These four black-clothed killers moved, and Li Qian'er also moved, her eyes were cold, and she rushed towards those black-clothed killers with an arrow step under her feet.
Shoot a man first and shoot a horse first, and capture a thief first and capture the king first!
Li Qian'er was the first to learn this truth in the army! A cold light flashed in her eyes, and the sharp long sword in her hand took the lead in stabbing at the leader of the black-clothed killer.
In a gray sword shadow, there was a sharp aura, it was actually sword qi!
"Oh, look for death!"
The leading black-clothed killer saw that Li Qian'er was actually the first to rush towards him, sneered, his eyes were fierce, and the long knife in his hand instantly slashed out, blasting towards the oncoming wisp of gray sword qi.
"Qiang—"
The swords clashed, splashing a dazzling light, and the face of the black-clothed killer who was tall and strong in the lead changed dramatically. He was a sixfold martial artist of the Qi Sea Realm and a woman, and he didn't even have the upper hand in terms of strength!
"How is that possible?"
The black-clothed killer in the lead had a look of surprise in his eyes, and on Li Qian'er's body, he even felt an extremely strong killer aura.
"Kill her first!"
Feeling that Li Qian'er's strength was not weak, the black-clothed killer who led the way shouted decisively, stepped on his body in the air, and the long knife slashed towards Li Qian'er's head again with a fierce force.
Li Qian'er smiled, her smile was full of coldness and disdain, the long sword in her hand was as light as a spiritual snake, not advancing but retreating, and the blade stabbed towards the jaw of the black-clothed killer in the lead with a piercing killing intent, as if she was going to lose both.
However, seeing that the long knife was about to slash her neck, Li Qian'er suddenly shook her body, and her body moved sideways like a ghost for a distance, avoiding the opponent's edge, and at the same time, the sharp edge of the sword in her hand did not decrease, turning into a gray sword qi and shooting out, piercing the head of the black-clothed killer who was leading from the bottom up.
"How is that possible!"
At the moment before his jaw was pierced, the leading black-clothed killer showed a trace of confusion in his eyes, and he didn't understand until he died, why everything was planned, but he would fall short at the last moment and accompany his life!
stabbed the leading black-clothed killer to death with a sword, Li Qian'er can be said to have played the three words 'fast, accurate, and ruthless' to the extreme, and as the leading black-clothed killer was killed, the remaining three were also shocked and looked at Li Qian'er in shock.
When they saw the faint cyclone above Li Qian'er's head, they immediately understood that they were facing a martial artist from the Qi Sea Realm, and they were so fast that they could barely see it with their eyes.
"Where did this woman come from?"
There was also a hint of panic in the eyes of the remaining three black-clothed killers, and cold sweat flowed from their foreheads.
"The leaders are dead, let's withdraw!"
"No, it's death to go back, you two drag her, I'll chase her!"
The remaining three black-clothed killers exchanged opinions, several people's eyes flashed with fierce light, two of them continued to rush towards Li Qian'er, while the other black-clothed killer took advantage of Li Qian'er's entanglement and chased in the direction of Li Yiqi's escape.
Seeing this scene, Li Qian'er's cold expression finally changed, she shook her body, didn't pay much attention to the two people who were entangled, blasted out her backhand to repel the two people, and then ran towards the killer who was chasing Li Yiqi.
She was ordered to protect Li Yiqi, and if Li Yiqi died, it would be useless for her to kill all the remaining people.
"Hold her back!"
"Ahhh
In order to buy time for their companions, the two black-clothed killers gritted their teeth, and the long knives in their hands rolled up a wave of qi to cut off Li Qian'er's route. The two didn't seek to kill the enemy, they just wanted to entangle Li Qian'er, and in a moment, Li Qian'er couldn't find the flaws of the two of them as before, and killed them instantly, and after more than a dozen rounds of fighting, the person who chased and killed Li Yiqi had already run away.
"Die!"
After a few more rounds, a trace of anger appeared on Li Qian'er's face, the murderous intent in her crystal eyes suddenly skyrocketed, she screamed, her figure turned into an afterimage again, and once again ghostly appeared next to a black-clothed killer, the long sword in her hand was sharp, instantly breaking through the black-clothed killer's defense, and a sword blasted into his chest with strength!
"Poof—"
With a muffled sound of 'poof', Li Qian'er's long sword pierced deep into his chest, and the clothes and flesh of the black-clothed killer who was hit were immediately pierced, and suddenly the blood vomited wildly, and Li Qian'er was thrown aside.
"Land, land name killer ......"
The last remaining black-clothed killer saw that Xiu Wei was the same as himself, he was a fellow killer in the Qi Sea Realm, and was harvested like grass by the female guard beside the target. His pupils contracted suddenly, and he felt a chill in his heart, and his whole body was cold. In his opinion, a killer with Li Qian'er's strength, if he is placed in his organization, even if he only has the Qi Sea Realm, he should be able to enter the ranks of killers at the level of the word 'earth'.
"I admit it...... Lose. ”
The black-clothed killer looked frightened, opened his mouth to speak, but felt a hot current rise in his throat, he slowly lowered his head, staring at the three-inch sword blade passing through his chest, but unexpectedly, at the moment when he was in a trance, Li Qian'er went around behind him again, and a sword pierced his heart from behind.
Of the six killers, five died in the hands of Li Qian'er, she drew her long sword, looked sharply at the direction of Li Yiqi's escape, and chased after her again, there, there was still the last assassin!
......
On the other side, Li Yiqi took Qi'er all the way along a path towards the dense forest, but before he could take a few steps with Qi'er, Qi'er was already panting and sweating on her forehead.
"Young Master, we ...... Are we ...... Did you run in the wrong direction?" Qi'er glanced at the increasingly dense jungle in front of her, her face was a little embarrassed, and she panted as she ran.
"Whew-"
Li Yiqi held Qi'er's hand, and he was also panting again and again, and said with a wry smile while running: "It's not wrong, it's more likely to survive if you go this way." ”
The 'here' in Li Yiqi's mouth is the road to the 'Xinnu'an' on the mountainside of Jingshan.
It's not that he doesn't want to run towards the avenue with more people, but at the moment he is not sure how many people the other party has sent to deal with him, and rashly running to the wide avenue is easy to become a live target, and now the mountains are high and dense, although the tracks are sparse, but it is more suitable for hiding.
More importantly, the 'Xin Nu'an' as a place of worship and prayer for girls in Shangjing City before they became adults, the incense and lamp oil in the nunnery are quite valuable, in order to prevent thieves in the green forest, there is a forbidden army, which is the closest person Li Yiqi can think of for help.
"Young master, slave maid...... The slave can't run......" Qi'er lowered her head and gasped with a blushing face.
She doesn't know martial arts, and her physique is not good, except for serving Li Yiqi's daily life in Li Fuzhong on weekdays, she hasn't done much heavy work, and now she is running for more than 100 meters, and she is almost out of breath.
"No!" Li Yiqi said coldly, with a cold, serious expression on his face.
His physical strength is not strong, and he is tired from running like crazy for a while, and he wants to rest, but reason tells him that he must not stop.
He only brought Li Qian'er a guard with him on this trip, but there were six people on the other side, although two had died before, but there were still four left, if Li Qian'er was entangled by several people, then as long as a killer could free up his hands to deal with him, he would definitely die.
After running for a short while, Li Yiqi heard an exclamation from Qi'er behind him, he turned his head to look, only to see that Qi'er seemed to have tripped over something and fell to the ground.
"Ahhh
Qi Erdai's eyebrows furrowed, her delicate little face looked a little painful, Li Yiqi went down, lifted Qi Er's slender and tender ankles, looked at it, and her face changed slightly.
"Sprained ......"
Li Yiqi's eyes flickered, he muttered for a second, picked up Qi'er, and continued to run forward.
"Young Master!"
Qi'er was also taken aback by Li Yiqi's actions, lowered her head, shy and self-blaming, and muttered like a mosquito: "Young master, you run alone and put me down...... You can't run far with me. ”
Li Yiqi looked down at the delicate little face without the slightest flaw, and said with a wry smile: "This is a way, the target of those killers is me, if I hide you in a dense forest nearby, hide by the grass and trees, and then I go to the forbidden army outpost on the mountainside to ask for help, it is not a bad idea, but ......"
Li Yiqi didn't finish his words, and the pace under his feet didn't slow down in the slightest. As the saying goes, if you are not afraid of 10,000, you are afraid of what happens, he is worried that if the person who is chasing finds that someone is hiding nearby, and finds that the person hiding is not him but Qi'er, that person is angry, and Qi'er still has a way to live?
Instead of that, it's better to go with him to the forbidden army for help!
Seeing Li Yiqi's appearance, Qi'er's bright eyes flashed with a strange light, and she seemed to have guessed Li Yiqi's thoughts, and said softly in a gentle voice: "Young master, I love you." ”
Li Yiqi paused, smiled awkwardly, and didn't know how to respond.
At this time, a sound of breaking wind sounded in the dense forest path, and then a cold, emotionless voice Li Yiqi came from behind him: "Stop!"
The voice sounded very cold, with a piercing killing intent, and it turned out to be like a woman's voice.
Li Yiqi felt a chill in his heart, his footsteps suddenly stopped, he turned his head to look, and sure enough, there was still a black-clothed killer chasing after him.
Li Yiqi hurriedly put Qi'er down and protected him, however, seeing that his young master was in danger, Qi'er's eyes turned red, bypassed Li Yiqi, opened her arms in front of him, and said urgently: "Young master, you go quickly!"
"Hmph, ridiculous—" The black-clad killer sneered disdainfully.
Looking down at Qi'er, who was much thinner than himself, blocking in front of him, Li Yiqi took a deep breath, a tender light flashed in his dark eyes, gently grabbed Qi'er's trembling hands, shook his head indifferently, and said in a low voice: "Qi'er, step aside." ”
After that, Li Yiqi pulled Qi'er behind him again, with a dark light flashing in his eyes, stared at the other party, and said, "I don't care which force sent you." I don't care who you are or who you are. As a killer, don't you just want money? How much do you want, you say, I'll give it!"
Li Yiqi's voice slightly revealed a trace of exhaustion, he was really tired and couldn't run anymore.
Hearing Li Yiqi's words, the black-clothed killer seemed to be stunned again, although her face was covered by a black cloth and she couldn't see her expression at this time, but through the pair of eyes exposed outside, Li Yiqi seemed to be able to feel a trace of a sarcastic smile.
"I know you're worried that I'm going to go back on my word, or that I'm going to turn around and get you in trouble when you get the money...... So, as long as you are willing to let the two of us go, I promise you that you can swear in the honor of the Li clan and not pursue this matter, how about it?" Li Yiqi continued, while slowly pulling Qi'er back without a trace, trying to distance himself from the other party.
"Hehe, money?" The black-clothed killer's gaze seemed to flicker, and a sneer faintly came from under the black mask.
"I'm sorry, young man, we have our rules. The black-clothed killer smiled contemptuously, pulled out his long knife, and slowly walked towards Li Yiqi.
At this time, Li Yiqi completely heard that the black-clothed killer opposite was a woman, however, the hope of negotiation in the end was dashed, and his heart gradually went to the bottom.
Li Yiqi stared at the other party, clenched his fists fiercely, didn't even notice that his nails were digging into the flesh, and still gritted his teeth and asked, "I'm not running, how about you let her go?"
Hearing Li Yiqi's second negotiation proposal almost pleading, the female killer in black still shook her head silently, and the sarcasm in her eyes was even worse.
Obviously, in her eyes, the target must die here today, and as for the other girl, it is just one more thing.
It's ridiculous to bargain with the killer......
“......”
Seeing the other party shaking his head, Li Yiqi didn't say anything more, but silently lowered his head, his long black hair hung down, covering his eyelids, and he couldn't see the expression on his upper half of his face clearly, but judging from the grinning at the corners of his mouth, the expression should be a little hideous.
At this time, in addition to a deep sense of powerlessness in Li Yiqi's heart, there was also a wave of anger burning in his heart.
Gradually, the distance between the female killer in black and Li Yiqi was less than two feet, almost a distance that could cut off someone's head in an arrow step, however, at this moment, suddenly, Li Yiqi, who seemed to have given up hope, suddenly saw a surge in the murderous power in his eyes, and shouted behind the female killer in black: "It's now, do it!"
The female killer in black was startled and quickly turned her head to look, she was worried that the guard had arrived, but when she looked back, she found that the quiet path was empty.
"You dare to deceive me, look for death!"
The female assassin in black raised her eyebrows angrily, the tip of the knife soared, and without saying a word, she slashed at Li Yiqi.
If this knife hits, Li Yiqi will definitely die, however, in the face of the oncoming killing machine, his face is very calm and composed.
The corners of Li Yiqi's mouth outlined a playful smile, his eyes did not look at the female assassin in black, but kept staring firmly behind the female assassin in black, his expression was calm and calm, as if everything was already under his control, and smiled casually: "You are the one who is looking for death...... Look behind you. ”
"Hmph, I want to cheat again!"
The female assassin in black was furious in her heart, and her body continued to rush towards Li Yiqi without pause, and the empty door behind her was wide open, without the slightest defense.
"Boom!"
In the midst of lightning and fire, a sword roar suddenly sounded in the void, and a sharp sword light pierced the void, drawing a gray-colored sword qi several zhang long and suddenly appeared behind the female assassin in black.
