Chapter 222: Qingcheng Mountain
Finally entered the Tanguo chapter, don't worry, friends, there will be meat and vegetables, ^_^ last night I worked overtime until the early hours of the morning and didn't review the text, so I didn't update on time today, so I waited for a long time, and the hot update came!!
The imperial city of Beiying fell into a low and dead air, everyone was in danger, and they kept silent about Princess Ling who caused a sensation in Beiying, and the news was repeatedly blocked, after all, it was not a good thing for the princess to flee, and the army that frequently mobilized to intercept was only called to explore the ** situation, but Beiying's small actions can set off a lot of storms in the land of China.
The countryside of the veins is endless, the damp and cold air is sweet, and the vast sky makes the earth vast, which is probably the feeling of freedom, and the straight shoulders when you see the mountains and rivers of the thousand rocks, the gloomy mood instantly disappears, and the heart is like an arrow.
The corners of the white satin and green clothes on horseback were slightly curved, and she seemed to smell the water vapor of the south of the Yangtze River from the southeast, sweet and full of hope for the future.
"After passing Qingcheng Mountain, I entered Echeng, and I finally want to return to my homeland." Wang Ping had some fine stubble on his face, and the skin on his face became darker and darker after days of traveling, but his eyes were extremely bright.
This is Qingcheng Mountain, they have been out of the city from Wudu along the lĂŹ, and stopped in Qingcheng Mountain for two days, although Dongtan and Xitan are at war every year, water and fire are incompatible, but no one can not get along with money, the trade road promotes the economy and trade of various countries, increases national taxes, even if there is a war, still open the city gate of the two countries, so that merchants can trade goods with each other, so they mixed into the caravan and went out of Wudu.
"The detective has been gone for two days, and if it goes well, he will be back today." Zhen Yue overlooked the endless mountain road, and the verdant green was extremely dazzling in her snowy eyes.
They traveled overnight, hiding their whereabouts, because the route was unexpected, so they did not meet the pursuers along the way, but when they arrived at Wudu, they knew that the east and west had been fighting in Xining, the battle was fierce, every street and alley people were discussing in private, Wudu was only two cities away from Xining, they were hesitating whether to go back to Yongdu City directly, or to go to Xining.
At this moment, at the end of the hillside, a large group of men and horses came to clean up, dust was raised, and the team was huge and immense.
Zhen Yue and the others happened to be hidden in the high place of Qingcheng Mountain, which was the most favorable place for exploration, and every time she was looking for a habitat, she would choose the most secret and powerful direction to observe the terrain.
The pure white hand gently picked up the branches, his eyes were like swords, and the soldiers behind him all entered a state of alert, and Fu Ziran also walked lightly, looking into the distance through the gaps in the branches.
"About 2,000 men and horses, and from their attire they look like relocated wealthy lords, not like an army." Zhen Yue frowned, pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "If it is a government soldier, it is impossible to have two thousand people, and when we were in Wudu yesterday, we didn't hear about any noble gate lords to relocate, it seems that something is wrong." â
"It's really strange, now the battle situation between the two sides is tense, and this group of teams is obviously going in the direction of Dongtan."
When everyone heard this, they felt more and more weird, and they stretched out their hands to their waists to rush down at any time.
Zhen Yue held her breath and watched, and said in a low voice: "Let's wait and see what happens." â
The mighty men and horses, like a winding dragon, two thousand men and horses are divided into two sides, especially conspicuous are the several carriages in the middle of the procession, the carriages are wrapped in expensive and exquisite silk on all sides, dark and dark, although extremely low-key, but it is difficult to hide a few small gems in the window, even the carriages are so expensive, this group of teams is not simple.
At the back of the team were hundreds of wagons, the goods were all covered with black cloths, and then there were some family slaves, the accompanying men and horses and their families were dressed simply, but some wanted to cover up, and the defense around the hundred trucks was obviously stricter than in other places, so people had to target the hundred trucks.
The sky goshawk was fierce, casting a deep black shadow, and in an instant, the murderous aura surged, and the sound of metal came one after another, only to see a large number of black-clothed masters surging out on both sides of the road in an instant, holding long swords, and striking ruthlessly, leaving no living moves.
The screams suddenly overwhelming the sky, forcing the scorching sun at noon into the black clouds, swords and swords, and a slaughter unfolded ferociously in Qingcheng Mountain.
Zhen Yue and the others, who were hidden in the high woods, were slightly surprised, and everyone immediately tensed up, looking at the battle situation under the mountain road with full attention.
Wang Ping said in a deep voice: "Sure enough, there is definitely something wrong with this team, and these black-clothed people are very skilled, they must have been ambushed here early in the morning, and we didn't even notice it at all." â
"We'd better not interfere." Fu Ziran frowned and said.
Zhen Yue nodded in agreement, seeing that Xiao Li's face on the side was a little pale, she patted her trembling shoulder to reassure, Xiao Li's tacit understanding of the chin, running and fleeing for two months in a row, has long made the once thin girl a little stronger.
The cold wind blew from the mountain road, bringing a thick and pungent blood gas.
About 500 men in black, their faces were all covered by black scarves, only revealing a pair of bloodthirsty eyes, the attack was obvious, the battle was ferocious, and the surplus of 2,000 soldiers and horses were defeated one after another, and there were severed heads everywhere, broken arms scattered, and blood stained the grass on the side of the road, adding to the horror.
There were few soldiers left in the luxury carriage, and the master in the sedan chair was still trapped in the sedan chair with a pig-like howl.
I only heard the screams of women, children and children one after another, like a heavy hammer in Zhen Yue's ears, they are only ten people now, if they rush down, it will be a stone with an egg, at first she thought that it was a bandit who came to rob the property, but now she is sure that this is definitely not a bandit, but a long-planned massacre!
The blood stained the mountain road red, and the fragrance of grass and wheat could no longer cover the pungent smell of blood, Zhen Yue seemed to see the past buried in her heart again, only to see the woman leap out, like a soaring falcon, with sharp claws.
"Girl!"
"Yue'er!"
Suddenly, in the dense forest in the northwest corner, the horse's hooves rolled in, and the dust was filled, almost at the same time as Zhen Yue.
Countless excited screams like wild beasts came from the dense forest, and a large number of men came with horses and knives, and soon rushed into the melee.
The black-clothed man in the field was instantly shocked, I don't know which passerby these savages who suddenly rushed in, the three parties quickly started a stormy melee, and Zhen Yue on the other side was stunned by this sudden situation, she still held a short sword in her hand, maintaining a defensive move, and Wang Ping and the others also appeared from hiding when they saw this.
The chaotic situation soon became clear, and these savages in coarse linen clothes fought rigorously, all purposefully slashing and killing the men in black, without injuring a single government soldier or family member, but as if they had come to the rescue on a special trip. (To be continued.) )
