Chapter 533: Foggy Ridge Storm (3)
(Second Update!) )
Under the leadership of Fu Huaide, Lu Fengde and his party finally came to Wuling. Wuling is full of dense forests, covering the sky and the sun, even in the hottest June, you can feel the coolness as soon as you get close to Wuling.
After arriving at Wuling, Fu Huaide received an urgent military report, saying that traces of Xisheng soldiers had been found on the west side of Wuling, and he explained the reason with Lu Fengde and others, and left in a hurry with some Xijiang guards.
But he still left a lot of Western Frontier Guards to cooperate with the actions of Lu Fengde and others.
On the second day, the Tiger Benjun's eyes were about to pop out. The carriage that imprisoned Prince Xisheng was unexpectedly empty!
The eight tiger soldiers guarding the vigor were still asleep. Needless to say, they are all on the way!
When they woke up in a daze, they found that Sheng Lie was gone. They didn't even know how they were recruited, let alone when Sheng Lie didn't see him or how he left.
Zhang Xu's face turned green, and he immediately ordered: "Follow it immediately!" Sheng Lie was injured, he was tortured so much in prison, his body was already decayed, and he must not be able to escape! Chase! ”
He hurriedly said a few words to Lu Fengde, and then chased after the tiger soldiers in the direction of judgment. After he left, Shen Du was also ready to set off with Runian and the others.
Lu Fengde's lips opened and closed, as if he wanted to explain something important, but in the end he just said: "Lord Shen, take care!" ”
Lord Shen, take care, protect yourself, successfully complete the plan, get the exact location of the Wuling vein, and remove Xisheng's guard. Gain time for the dynasty to be strong. It's up to you. - Lu Fengde watched Shen Du leave, and said silently in his heart.
In the vast mountains and forests of Wuling, Sheng Lie continued to run as much as he could, but he couldn't run anymore, so he stopped to rest, but he only rested for a while. After recovering his breath, he continued to run desperately towards the west.
What appeared in front of Sheng Lie's eyes, in addition to the dense tall trees, was also a dense tall tree. Beasts that flash by from time to time. When he saw the sword in Sheng Lie's hand. will "swish" away.
In the vast mountains and forests, there is no one, except for his own breath, there will be no one else.
But Sheng Lie didn't dare to relax at all. I just wish that the wind on the soles of my feet could run a little faster. I can't even take care of the long-lost freedom. Because he knows. Dading's pursuers will soon catch up. Shen Du said that he only had half a day.
Half a day, this time has been stolen as much as he can, if he can't meet the Xisheng soldiers in this half day. Then the Tiger Ben soldiers behind him catch up, and he will repeat the fate of being imprisoned.
Thinking of those dark moments in the Dading Heavenly Prison, Sheng Lie's footsteps couldn't help but pause. If he remained imprisoned, he would rather die!
For safety, for ...... Freedom, he must run faster, so fast that the soldiers of Dading Tiger can no longer catch up.
However, as time increased, the worries in Sheng Lie's heart became heavier and heavier, and his pace became slower and slower.
He felt more and more clearly that there were pursuers behind him, but when he stopped to look back, he found nothing, except the rustle of the leaves in the wind.
Suddenly, Sheng Lie's footsteps stopped, and he listened intently, heard a small sound, and then his eyes brightened.
He heard these small voices, which were the orders of the Xisheng army. Before he had an accident, he had commanded Xisheng's soldiers, and he was very clear about these orders. Not far ahead, there are soldiers from Xisheng!
He's saved! Just a short distance ahead, is the way to live!
At this time, like a thirsty traveler suddenly seeing a pool of clear water in front of him, and like a man who has been trapped in the darkness for several days seeing a ray of light, he rushes in the direction of the command with great joy and piety.
He wanted to see Xisheng's soldiers too much, he wanted to escape from Dading's tracking, and he wanted to be truly free, so he lacked the least vigilance. He forgot that a pool of clear water could be a mirage, and a glimmer of light could be a mirror.
He followed the direction of the order, but the order was also changing, intermittently, and it kept attracting him, and before he knew it, he followed it for a long distance.
When the order became clearer and clearer, and the voice was getting closer and closer, Sheng Lie realized that something was wrong: I don't know when there was no dense forest in front of him, and instead of it, it was empty, nothing!
Because in front of him was a huge gap. This is...... This is the deep cliff of Foggy Ridge! This deep cliff appeared in front of him!
There are many deep cliffs hidden in the Fog Ridge, and Sheng Lie already knew about it when he was exploring the Fog Ridge veins six years ago. He still remembers the mountains he walked through and has been careful to avoid these places.
But now, he followed Xisheng's order and walked to the edge of the deep cliff of Wuling.
At this time, it would be too stupid if Sheng Lie didn't know what was going on.
He stopped, took a deep breath, and then said, "Brother Huang, come out, I know it's you." ”
As soon as he said this, many people suddenly appeared in the originally empty dense forest. Dressed in brown and green, they almost blended in with the forest, and no one would notice their presence if they weren't careful.
The last person to appear, although he was also dressed in brown and green, had a face like a crown of jade and a luxurious body, and he knew at a glance that he was not an ordinary person. The man was still holding a paper fan in his hand, as if he didn't think the dense forest was quiet enough, and he was still shaking it leisurely.
This person, although he has faded from the immaturity and youth of six years ago, has turned into ashes, and Sheng Lie remembers who he is!
It was this person who caused him to rebel against him, and caused him to live six years without seeing the light of day in Dading! This person is his imperial brother, Xisheng's current crown prince, Sheng Xi!
Sheng Xi half-squinted, looked at Sheng Lie carefully from beginning to end, and said in an extremely disappointed tone: "I haven't seen you for six years, why did the imperial brother become what he is now?" I knew that the imperial brother had become like this, and the palace would not have to work hard to mobilize the people. ”
Sheng Lie's heart was shocked, but his face did not move. Just as Sheng Xi looked at him, he also looked at Sheng Xi carefully, the soldiers in front of him and behind him, and then judged his chance of escape in his heart.
A quarter of an hour ago, Sheng Lie rushed to those Xisheng's orders with great joy and piety. But he didn't expect that the person he had hoped would save him would now point a bow and arrow at him and take his life at any time.
The most ironic thing in the world is this, right?
