Chapter 17: Xiao Jiu

Sunset

On a wide official road leading to Chang'an City, several fast horses were galloping wildly.

"Xiao Nan, how long does it take to reach Chang'an City?"

The leader reined in the bolt of the horse, stopped in place, looked at a city in front of him and frowned, the facial features of the knife-like face were expressionless, and the majesty was fully displayed.

The men behind him also grabbed their horses and followed him.

"Go back to Your Highness, if you rush at this speed, you will arrive in the capital in five days. Behind him, a small guard in a strong suit looked at the small city in front of him, and roughly estimated the time in his heart.

"Five days?" "My brother's birthday is eight days away, and it's still too late!"

Xiao Jiu, who was the leader, nodded, and his slightly serious expression eased slightly.

"It's getting late, stay here tonight, you go and have a look. ”

Xiao Jiu's majestic voice sounded again, intending to rest here today.

"Yes!"

The guards answered, whipped their horses, and walked towards the gate of the city. The rest of the men sat upright on their horses and walked forward unhurriedly.

The one who came to the end of the group seemed to hear something and stopped what he was doing.

"Your Highness, there seems to be a voice. ”

Hearing this, several people stopped and looked behind, and sure enough, the voice from there was getting louder and louder, and a sharp female voice gradually came.

Xiao Jiu's brows furrowed again, and a trace of exhaustion appeared on his weather-beaten face.

"Go check it out. ”

It was the outermost part of the city, and in the evening, there were almost no people in a hurry, but the sound came from the jungle on the right-hand side, and the other party seemed to be a passer-by.

"Yes!"

Xiao Jiu's feet tightened the horse's belly, and he took the lead in walking forward, and several people behind him glanced at each other, surrounding him, and his right hand had cautiously touched the saber on the horse.

One of them hesitated and spoke to dissuade him.

"Your Highness, your status is valuable, do you want your subordinates to check it out first?"

Xiao Jiu held the reins in his right hand and raised his left hand, "No, let's go over together." ”

It's just a girl's voice, he Xiao Jiu has galloped across the field for decades, fought countless battles, and has never been afraid of anyone, is it impossible to be scared by a little woman today?

When Xiao Jiu's subordinates saw his determined appearance, they immediately swallowed what they were about to say, forget it, if something really happened, a few of them would be able to protect His Highness.

The crowd grew closer and closer to the target, and the woman's screams grew louder and louder, and a few people made their way through the grass before discovering the scene in front of them.

A girl of about seventeen or eighteen years old, with a delicate face, tears but stubborn eyes, was being torn under a man in gray brocade, and the clothes on her body had been torn apart, revealing the white underwear inside, and the white skin on her neck was visible to the naked eye.

And above her was a man dressed in gray, with a fierce look on his face, looking at the woman with a fierce gaze, and a hint of fierceness in his eyes.

When Xiao Jiu saw the situation in front of him, his knife-like face suddenly became sharp, and he was born responsible.

"Presumptuous, let her go!"

The black-clothed thief seemed to be too indulged in the current matter, and was shocked when he heard this, only to find that there were four or five people next to him, all riding on horseback, and the head was a little old-fashioned, but the bearing of that body could not be ignored, and it was full of majesty.

"You, who are you!"

"Hmph, in broad daylight, you dare to do such an ugly thing, and you won't retreat!"

The black-clothed thief was shocked by Xiao Jiu's momentum, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and then he thought of something, and then calmed down a little.

"Who are you, this is my family, you have to take care of it, this woman is my fiancΓ©e!"

Xiao Jiu's eyes flashed and he looked at the woman, "What he said is true?"

"No, it's not.......! I, hmm-" As soon as the woman wanted to quibble, her mouth and nose were forcibly covered by the other party, and she couldn't spit out a word!

Seeing this, a trace of panic flashed on the thief's face, and he glared at the five people and five horses fiercely.

"You'd better not meddle in your business, do you know who the master is?"

What a big breath, this is still the boundary of Qiumao's border, which is the place under the jurisdiction of His Royal Highness the Prince, and someone dares to call himself a young master in front of Xiao Jiu?

"Tell me, who are you?" Xiao Jiu's knife-like face showed a hint of deep thought

Within the boundaries of Qiu Mao, under his command, there would be such wicked people!

"The young master is a relative of His Royal Highness the Prince's mansion, and he is a member of the Wang family, you ...... Do you dare to care? If you know each other, hurry up and get out of the way with your people, or I'll copy your whole family, master!"

One of the guards beside Xiao Jiu, his right hand had already been placed on the saber, and when he heard the words, he pulled out and scolded in a deep voice.

"Presumptuous!"

However, he hesitated, but he didn't dare to move forward, after all, the Wang family in the mouth of the black-clothed man was indeed the surname of the crown princess.

Xiao Jiu sat on the back of the horse and was calm, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the man in black with scrutiny.

"You say, you are a member of the Wang family? His Royal Highness the Prince's Mansion, the royal family of the crown princess?"

The black-clothed thief thought that Xiao Jiu was frightened by the name he had brought out, and he was afraid of the Wang family, so he suddenly had confidence in his heart, his chin was raised, and his eyes were a little contemptuous.

"Exactly, it's not this Wang family, which Wang family, what's the matter, I'm afraid?"

His movements stopped, and the woman's body quickly retreated, out of his range.

Seeing this, the man's eyes looked at her even more fiercely, but because outsiders were here, he didn't move.

You wait for me, and when the master solves these idle people first, I will clean you up!

Stared at by the man's serpent-like eyes, the woman's eyes flashed with fear, but there was a little firmness in her eyes, as if she was unwilling to be humiliated.

"Oh, Wang's family, this hall...... I've had a few encounters with that Wang family, but I've never met you, are you pretending?" Xiao Jiu asked tentatively.

"Snor~ With your identity, can you still meet the Wang family? Won't you be a dart master, don't you know the master and don't get in the way, the master will tell you, listen well, the master is the cousin of the princess!"

The other party's eyes swept over the five people unscrupulously, and self-righteously labeled these martial artists as dart walkers. What he didn't know, thoughβ€”that the dart walker he was talking about was not far behind the five (and really existed!)

"Oh, the cousin of the crown princess, don't you have a royal law in your eyes?"

Xiao Jiu's face was full of clouds, and the identity of this black-clothed thief was not sure if it was true, but daring to bring up the identity of the Wang family was also a kind of contempt for His Royal Highness the Prince's Mansion.

The other party sneered again, "It's just a little civilian woman, how can His Royal Highness the Prince's Mansion take her in his eyes, is it just because he can't get along with me?" ”

With that, he stood up and waved his hand contemptuously.

"Hurry up, don't let the master regret it, otherwise he won't let you go!"

Immediately afterwards, his hand reached out to the woman again, and the woman stepped back, and with the force of both sides, the other's clothes were torn off by him again.

Xiao Jiu snorted coldly, took out the saber in his right hand, and drew a sword flower in the air, and the sword came out of his hand and shot towards the man!

"Poofβ€”"

"Ahβ€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”β€”h

The man's right hand was stabbed by the sword, and the wrist immediately bled non-stop, and the sword passed through his wrist and plunged directly into the ground, sinking into the ground for three points, which shows its strength.

The woman seemed to be frightened, and pushed back again, until she leaned against the tree, and then stopped, without saying a word.

Xiao Jiu got off the horse, took a few steps forward, walked in front of the man, and looked at him condescendingly.

"Now, do I dare to kill you, huh?"

"I ...... I, the strong man, spare my life!" the man was stunned by his handsome kung fu.

Xiao Jiu dismounted, and the remaining four people did not dare to delay, and then they also came down, and one of them took a step forward and was born to be responsible.

"I scared your dog's eyes, what a strong man, this is His Royal Highness the Prince, don't hurry up and ask for guilt!"

......
