325. A contest of wills

He Yuanlong, whose left face was pressed against the ground, saw twenty centimeters ahead, and Lin Keding's face was similar to him.

"Use spells!" Lin Keding whispered in his mouth, not loud but enough for He Yuanlong to hear.

Of course, He Yuanlong knew that as long as he cast the Rotten Technique now, there was a high chance that he would be able to kill these more than ten palace guards. But he had seen a road full of guards, no less than a few thousand, which could be described as a large number.

If he used a spell, the enraged guards would shoot him into a hornet's nest, and the guards might be scared away by spells they had never seen before.

He Yuanlong didn't want to do this thing of gambling on luck, but after the escape failed, there was only one way to fight, which was much better than sitting and waiting for death.

"Hehe, what do you think will happen to these assassins?" The bearded palace guard smashed He Yuanlong's back a few times with the butt of his gun, and looked at them with the eyes of a dead man.

"Needless to say, it must be a thousand cuts, just like Yuan Chonghuan. If the queen mother is gone, the emperor will be happy to express filial piety; If the Queen Mother was okay, these assassins would have died a terrible death. The other guards grinned.

"But there's also a foreign devil assassin, isn't that easy?" The bearded man is a little troubled, you said that a good foreigner VIP is inappropriate but participated in the assassination of the Queen Mother, which is really tired.

"What's wrong with the foreign devils? Six years ago, the Boxer did not kill foreign devils. An old-looking guard in his forties said disdainfully.

The Qing Dynasty was defeated by foreigners so many times, and its prestige was lost, and Western learning was introduced to ancient China. The royal family is not a topic that cannot be talked about for a long time.

He Yuanlong naturally heard what these guards said. The hesitant determination was finally made. Spell privileges are released. From this moment on, Ye Wen, Lin Keding, and the others could cast spells infinitely until the mana was exhausted.

Just as He Yuanlong cast a rotten spell on the bearded guard, the others moved quickly, pouring out their anger one by one. The guards who approached them screamed and dropped their guns.

"What's wrong? What's wrong with you? The guards who were a little farther away didn't understand what was going on, so their comrades dropped their guns in pain and didn't come over to check.

"Slot. What is it! When they saw the rancid black wounds on their comrades, they were all stunned. With such a pause, they went to the back of their comrades, and they also became victims of spells.

He Yuanlong moved his body to a rifle and untied himself with the bayonet on it. After standing up, he looked at the guards who were howling in pain, and gave them a painful pleasure with his bayonet.

Ye Wen and the others also untied their restraints and picked up the guns on the ground. With a weapon in hand and the power to resist, my heart is finally a little more stable.

At this time, the palace guards who came up from behind slowly. I had received news that the Assassin had been caught. But suddenly he found his comrades knocked to the ground and didn't know whether they were alive or dead, and the short-haired assassins had guns in their hands. It took a second before he remembered to shoot.

Bang! Bang!

He Yuanlong's five people rushed ahead and fired a few shots to fire all the bullets. He didn't expect to kill a few of the guards, he just wanted to delay their pursuit, then drop his gun and flee for his life deep into the woods.

"Chase! Can't let the assassins go! ”

Except for a few unlucky ones, the palace guards hid behind tree trunks, and few were shot. At this time, he saw He Yuanlong and others running away, and immediately chased after them. If the adults knew that the Assassin hadn't been caught, the guards would suffer.

Ho ho, the five He Yuanlong who ran to the front were not comfortable, they didn't have much strength before, and this time they almost tore out their lungs, and their chests rose and fell violently like bellows.

"It's over, it's over! They're going to catch up. Lin Keding really couldn't run, so he kept a pine tree with a diameter of more than 30 centimeters at breast height, and turned his head to look behind. It was found that the pursuers had reached more than forty meters away and were about to come soon.

Ye Wen grabbed Lin Keding's left arm and pulled him forward. It's a bit inappropriate to say that it's a bit inappropriate to run, but it can only be said to be walking quickly, and if you go on like this, you can only be caught by the palace guards again. But the physical exertion is about the same, and the tired muscles can't squeeze much strength at all.

"Don't run, if you run again, we'll shoot!" The guards naturally wanted to be assassins alive, otherwise whoever believed in a few dead people would launch an assassination, and there must be a mastermind behind them.

If the mastermind can be asked through torture, it will be a great achievement. For the sake of this great achievement, the guards who died before are not very important, so they should be regarded as sacrifices for the country.

He Yuanlong and the five of them naturally did not stop obediently, but continued to run forward, but comforted each other: "Hold on for a while, maybe Cixi only has one breath now, and she will be hanging up soon, and then we will be able to go back to modern times." ”

"Shoot! But keep the muzzle of the gun up and don't shoot the assassins to death. One of the leaders of the palace guards saw that persuasion had no effect, and ordered in anger.

Crackling, several crisp gunshots rang out, wafting back and forth through the woods.

He Yuanlong and the five of them were indeed startled by the gunshot, and their bodies that were walking fast paused, but after finding that none of them were shot, they began to run forward again.

"Chase! I don't believe that they can escape as fast as five snails, and we must catch them, this is our only chance to atone for our sins. The leader of the guard shouted, trying to muster his men up.

Although the Assassin did not escape quickly, his guards were all banner men, and he walked birds and listened to the drama on the street every day, and his ability to pursue was not worth mentioning, otherwise the Assassins would have been caught long ago.

Hearing the words of the leader, one by one, the banner guards who were used to being uncles finally got up their last bit of spirit and continued to chase.

He Yuanlong ran at the front, feeling that his entire body was on fire, every cell was so thirsty, and his throat seemed to have turned into a Sahara desert, trying to absorb moisture from the air. Even if you put urine in front of him, he can drink it.

One thought kept coming to his mind: Forget it, don't run away! It's useless to run any longer, so let's die. Being beheaded is like that, it's finally a little more comfortable than dying of exhaustion.

At this moment, He Yuanlong saw a small stream appear fifty or sixty meters in front of him, and the gurgling water was like a river of life, which could quench the thirst in his body.

"Don't stop, there's water ahead!" He said in a hoarse voice, and his body, which was about to stop, puffed up the last of his strength to move. Ye Wen, Lin Keding and others also followed his example and sprinted to follow.

Plopped, He Yuanlong and the five of them threw themselves into a stream more than three meters wide, their mouths wide open and they drank desperately, not even having the strength to move.

"Ha, ha, I've finally caught you!" The palace guards rose up and Yu Yong chased after him, pointing their guns at He Yuanlong and the five people. (To be continued.) )
