Chapter 405: Ambush

Shu Jin ran into the woods with Jiang Duanyu.

If it were someone else, it would not be wise to rush into the woods at such a dark time, because since someone had plotted against him, there were also people in the forest who were ambushed. But the situation at this moment forced the two to hide in the woods. The two of them were in an open field before, and if they were still there, because there was moonlight, it would be a bright target! It's better to hide in the woods.

At least in this way, the vision of the people who shoot arrows and plot against them will be obstructed by the trees, and Shu Jin can scan with her mental power, if there is really danger in the forest, she can also find the ambush as soon as possible, so that she can react.

The sound of arrows in their ears did not stop, and the two had to continue to go deep into the forest to hide. Maybe it was because the horses were running wildly that the enemy couldn't determine the direction, so at this moment, there was really no ambush within the range that Shu Jin could perceive. When the two of them went deep into the forest to a certain extent, the arrows behind them also stopped.

But the situation of the two is still not very optimistic.

They don't know where they are, they don't know where they are, and there are enemies behind them, and they don't know if there will be any traps ahead.

The main thing is that because they want to avoid people's eyes, they don't even bring a helper, but the other party doesn't know how many people are going to take their lives.

"Go this way." Jiang Duanyu whispered to Shu Jin, and then pulled her to choose a direction and ran over.

Shu Jin felt that Jiang Duanyu was holding her hand a little cold, but this was not the time to care about those details, so she ran with him while on guard.

I don't know how long they ran, but the two of them are still going around in the forest. This forest is bigger than expected! And among the trees behind him, there was a faint fire!

"Someone's coming!" Shu Jin hurriedly whispered.

Jiang Duanyu paused, and subconsciously turned around and looked back. Then look left and right.

"It's still far away. But someone came this way with torches. Shu Jin saw it through spiritual power, and at this moment, the position of the two of them was covered by trees, and Jiang Duanyu naturally couldn't see too far.

Jiang Duanyu didn't see anything when he turned around, but he also knew that Shu Jin always had some special means, so he didn't doubt her words.

He asked:

"Do you know how many people there are on the other side?"

Shu Jin silently counted, and the other party was very fast. In this moment, the kung fu has come a lot. There are five torches, with an average of three or four people having one torch. Roughly counting the past, there were at least fifteen people.

Shu Jin was very surprised.

Fifteen people with such a big thorn. It's too blatant to light a torch to chase them down like this, right? Besides, how the hell did they find their hiding place so quickly?

"At least fifteen people, they're coming for us."

Surprise is surprise. But Shu Jin still told Jiang Duanyu what he saw.

"They're coming so fast!"

"Xu has some way to track it. For example, with a hound or something. ”

Shu Jin was stunned when he heard this, and then looked back carefully, and sure enough, there were really two hunting dogs in that group. She hadn't even noticed!

Wrong! It's not that I didn't pay attention! It's that she didn't even see it just now! How so?

There is a blind spot in her mental power perception?

"It's too late to hide. If we run like this, we will be caught up sooner or later, so we have to think of a way. Jiang Duanyu's voice sounded, "Shu Jin, you take off your coat and give it to me, and then wipe this on your body." Jiang Duanyu said as he handed Shu Jin a small bottle. Then he took off his own coat.

Shu Jin didn't ask much, and did as he was told.

I don't know what kind of powder was in the little bottle. Shu Jin patted some on his body, and then handed the clothes to Jiang Duanyu. I saw Jiang Duanyu carrying the coats of the two of them around, and found a few branches in the coat to prop up and hook it on a big tree.

In the dark, if you don't look closely, it's like two people standing there against a tree.

"Come!"

After doing this, he ran over, pulled Shu Jin to run to the other side, put his hands on his knees, and said to Shu Jin:

"You go up to the tree and hide, and don't move or make a sound. I lure them away. ”

Shu Jin paused, glanced at Jiang Duanyu, and hesitated.

"Hurry up!" Seeing Shu Jin's hesitation, he said, "Don't worry, I'll be fine." Come! ”

Shu Jin hesitated, but finally listened to him, kicked his palm, jumped up the tree with his strength, and then quickly climbed up for a while, completely hiding his figure between the branches.

Jiang Duanyu used his full eyesight to look at the tree, but he didn't see Shu Jin's figure at all, so he turned around with confidence and ran towards the tree where he had just hung his clothes.

Shu Jin watched from the tree, and saw Jiang Duanyu running to the tree not far from hanging his clothes, hugging the trunk and climbing up.

Looking at Jiang Duanyu's movements, Shu Jin frowned, but before he could think deeply, he saw a firelight approaching.

Here it comes!

Shu Jin hurriedly hid and quietly looked at the people below.

The men stopped at a near place, dismounted from their horses, and gave their horses to one man to look after them, while the group walked slowly towards them.

After approaching where Shu Jin and Jiang Duanyu were, Shu Jin saw clearly that the first person was a man with a hunting dog, followed by a man holding a torch, and the people behind him were also in the prime of life. Seeing that these people are wearing the military uniforms of the soldiers of the Great Drill at the moment, if it weren't for the cold light of the swords in their hands in the firelight, it would be easy for Shu Jin to think that these people are just a group of patrolling soldiers.

"Over there!" The man who led the dog saw the reaction of the hound and immediately pointed out the direction. The group immediately dispersed, forming a siege around the place. Then, the dozen or so people gradually gathered and surrounded, and the two hounds were released, and they pounced on the place where the clothes were hung first, and the dogs barked, and everyone rushed forward with their weapons.

However, when these people saw clearly what was on the tree, they immediately knew that they had been fooled.

"They ran away!" One said.

When these people heard this, they all looked at a middle-aged man with a mustache among them.

The mustache was clearly the leader of these people.

His entire face was exposed to the firelight at the moment, and not only him, but also the faces of the group were not covered in the slightest. However, Shu Jin didn't know anyone, let alone recognize who it was, but looking at their clothes, they must also be people from the camp.

Who is plotting against him?

"There are only two of them, search separately!"

When the mustache leader saw the reaction of the hound, he knew that he couldn't track it by smell, but they believed that in terms of speed, Shu Jin and the others were not their opponents, and they must not be able to run far at the moment, so these people divided into two teams and searched in two directions.
