171. Falling
When he arrived at a fork in the road, Wu Tingyuan only said, "Wait a minute." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"
The two of them hid behind the boulder and waited for a while.
After a while, I heard the footsteps of someone hurrying forward. Listening to the voice, there were many people.
Xu Zi calmed down, turned sideways slightly, and saw those people were the imperial grandson and the guards, as well as Shen Shu and Yu'er.
She nodded to Wu Tingyuan, and after the two of them got out of the stone, they saluted and said, "Your Highness, the task has been completed." ”
The imperial grandson was overjoyed, and when he stopped, he saw the fainting man on Wu Tingyuan's body.
He held the man's face up with his hand, looked at it, was silent for a while, and then said, "It's him." Then he said, "Hard work two." ”
"It should." Wu Tingyuan only said.
"Let's go." The imperial grandson put down his hand and said.
The group hurriedly descended the mountain.
As soon as he walked to the mountainside, Shen Shu's face turned pale and shouted, "It's not good, there is an ambush!" ”
As soon as the words fell, a dense rain of arrows suddenly flew around.
Fortunately, with Shen Shu's warning, the people around the emperor's grandson took the lead, and the long sword in his hand was already out of the sheath and clanged, and the arrows that flew over were swept to the ground.
But when he saw the surroundings, a large number of masked black-clothed people jumped out, kept silent, and the killing tricks were all revealed.
The guards were well-trained, and immediately surrounded the imperial grandson, Shen Shu and others in the middle, facing the black-clothed people, and for a while, the cheers were intertwined, and the sword light was shining, and they were connected.
The group of men in black, there were quite a few of them, they didn't say a word, and when they fought, they were desperate. It doesn't look like an ordinary mountain bandit, but it seems that he came directly for the emperor's grandson. Wu Tingyuan was carrying Emperor Jianwen, so he did not fight in the outer circle, but still stood by in the inner circle.
At this time, I saw the emperor's grandson take out an object, and then, a crisp whistle sounded.
This should be a call for support from the people at the foot of the mountain, Wu Tingyuan thought. He didn't dare to slack off, and stood still. Emperor Jianwen on his body also has to be protected. What the emperor's grandson wants is not a dead Emperor Jianwen.
The man in black heard the whistle and attacked even more frantically. Because they outnumbered the guards several times, the guards in the outer circle struggled and gradually retreated.
The people in the circle also retreated, but after a while, they retreated to a stone platform.
The imperial grandson and others stood on the stone platform.
The guards changed their formation to a semicircle, and then fought with the men in black. They know that those at the foot of the mountain may be able to arrive soon, and they must persevere until the help comes.
In the midst of the sword light flying, suddenly from the black-clothed crowd, a thin person rushed out, that person was very good, his moves were fierce and vicious, and he deceived himself, and soon arrived at the place where the guards in the outer circle were located.
I saw the short knife in the man's hand flash, and a guard in the outer circle actually fell to the ground, revealing a vacancy. The little man rushed into the circle!
Wu Tingyuan was startled, and the long sword in his hand stabbed forward in a hurry, facing the thin man.
But the man, not hiding from him, met him.
But at the moment when he was about to be stabbed, he slipped away.
Wu Tingyuan hurriedly withdrew his sword and stabbed it back, but just as he was wrong, the man glanced at him.
That glance actually made the sword in Wu Tingyuan's hand stunned for a moment.
At this moment, the knife in the hand of the short and thin man flew straight out and stabbed at the imperial grandson.
The knife was fast and powerful, even if the emperor had martial arts, it was difficult to defend at this time.
A figure, with an impossible posture and speed, flew upside down and blocked in front of the imperial grandson. The short knife plunged deep into the man's body.
The person who was stabbed was Xu Zi.
Seeing that he had not succeeded, the thin man pushed with his palms with his hands, and Xu Zi and the imperial grandson both fell under the stone platform before they could react.
This change was only in an instant, and the guards didn't have time to help, watching the two emperors and grandsons fall, roaring angrily, and the blades in their hands were even more powerful.
At this moment, another guard joined the melee. It turned out that the people at the foot of the mountain had arrived.
After another fight, those black-clothed men saw that it was difficult to attack, and with a wave of their hand, they retreated cleanly in an instant.
