On the official road from Hangzhou to Muzhou, Xia Yurong's carriage drove slowly, and Wu Yuan, Luo Xiaobei and others beside him were escorted on horseback.

Walking to a fork in the road, Wu Yuan suddenly said: "Everyone, stop!" ”

"Brother Wu, what's wrong?" Luo Xiaobei frowned and asked,

"If we go on like this, sooner or later we will be caught up by the doves or the official army."

Deng Cong also had this idea for a long time, but he didn't dare to say it, and when he heard Wu Yuan say this, he hurriedly agreed: "Yes, I don't know what Brother Wu can do?" ”

Wu Yuan said slowly: "Let one person drive the carriage and horses on the official road, and the rest of the people will walk and take the small road to Muzhou." ”

Hearing his idea, everyone's faces became a little unnatural, this method is good, but one person must be sacrificed to be the bait.

"That's it, Brother An, it's hard for you to catch the carriage." Leng Pan said lightly.

An Yishan's face changed greatly, and he said angrily: "Why didn't you come." ”

Leng Pan looked at his fist and said lightly: "Because my martial arts are stronger than yours." ”

"There are also those who are worse than me in martial arts." An Yishan gritted his teeth and said, the meaning of his words was naturally Xia Yurong and Lu Yun'er.

"Bastard, you're actually compared to a female streamer." Luo Xiaobei said angrily.

Wang Gui in the carriage suddenly spoke: "Wu Daxia, all heroes, there is no need to fight, it is better to let the old man be the bait." ”

"Grandpa An, how can this be."

"Grandpa, Brother Wu must have a proper way, let's just listen to him."

At the same time, the exclamations of the second daughter were heard in the car.

Deng Cong's eyes rolled and he proposed: "Why don't you find a random passer-by and give him money so that he can help us drive to Muzhou City?" ”

An Yishan and Dandingshan both agreed when they heard this, Luo Xiaobei shook his head and said: "No, if the people of the dove find out that it is not us in the car, how can they let go of the person who is driving the car?" ”

"Luo Xiaobei, don't pretend anymore, I want to vomit when I see it." Leng Pan sneered.

As if he didn't see the controversy of the crowd, Wu Yuan dismounted and walked to the carriage and said, "Miss Xia, come down." ”

Xia Yurong listened to him the most at the moment, answered, got out of the car, and Wang Gui and Lu Yun'er also came down behind him.

"I'll catch the car, you take this path." Wu Yuan said slowly, the reason why he proposed this matter was that he planned to lead the other party away by himself.

"Brother Wu, what should we do if you leave?" Xia Yurong was in a hurry.

"They will protect you, don't worry, after I have led the enemy away, I will turn back and catch up with you."

Leng Pan's eyes lit up, and he arched his hand and said: "Wu Daxia is really benevolent and righteous, Leng admires it so much, everyone will act according to Wu Daxia's orders, I believe that with his martial arts, there will be no problem." ”

Lu Yun'er stared at Wu Yuan and said in a condensed voice: "Brother Wu, you are sure, right?" ”

"That's natural, I still have a lot to do, but I'm not going to die so soon." Wu Yuan smiled slightly.

"Brother Wu, don't worry, I will fight for this life, and I will protect Miss Xia and them." Luo Xiaobei said in a deep voice.

"Then I'll leave it to you."

Dandingshan hesitated, not knowing whether it would be safer to follow Wu Yuan or the team, and finally he decided to follow the team, thinking that even if the doves caught up, he could escape by taking advantage of the chaos.

An Yishan was afraid that Wu Yuan would change his mind, so he walked to the path first, looking at everyone from afar, but he didn't dare to urge.

Xia Yurong showed a reluctant attitude, and said softly: "Brother Wu, you must be careful. ”

"I remember." Wu Yuan nodded, his eyes drooping.

Lu Yun'er hesitated for a while, handed over a crossbow, and said, "Brother Wu, you take this." ”

Wu Yuan pointed to the longbow behind him and smiled, "I'll just use this." ”

Lu Yun'er smiled, no longer hesitated, took out the luggage, and walked towards the path with Wang Gui.

Everyone else also passed, but only Xia Yurong remained in place.

"Miss Xia, come over quickly."

Xia Yurong replied, turning back three times in one step, as if he would never see Wu Yuan again after this separation.

Half an hour later, when everyone had left, Wu Yuan tied the horses to the carriage with ropes, and moved a few stones in the carriage before driving the carriage.

More than an hour later.

There were three purple-clothed people and more than a dozen blue-clothed people standing at the fork in the road, and one of the tall and thin purple-clothed men urged: "Snake, what's the matter, let's chase it quickly, otherwise the people from the Jingjiao sect will be in trouble if they come." ”

The high-level killers in the doves often have other identities in the rivers and lakes, so they all wear veils when they go on missions, and they are also referred to by code names to each other.

The purple-clothed man codenamed "Snake" looked at the ground for a long time and said softly: "It's nothing, I'm just worried that they will abandon the car here and take the path, but it seems that I am too worried." ”

The voice is coquettish, and she is a woman.

The previous man in purple was codenamed "Xiong", and he was most convinced by the "snake", and when he heard her say this, he was immediately reminded, looked at the fork in the road and said, "How can you see that they didn't take a fork in the road?" ”

Codename "Snake" looked at the rut mark, thinking to himself how this skill of judging the number of people in the carriage through the depth of the rut mark can tell you at will, and said lightly: "I have my own magic method, let's go." ”

The code name Xiong replied sullenly, and was about to head towards the main road, and the last man in purple said in a deep voice: "Snake, you are wrong, they did take the small road." ”

He was the purple-clothed man who eavesdropped on the beams of the house and listening to Xia Yurong and the others.

"Wolf, do you believe my judgment by saying that?" Codename Snake said coldly.

Codename Wolf didn't make much of an excuse, and pointed to a poplar tree on the side of the path, only to see a cross mark on the trunk. The three of them glanced at each other, and they all smiled, and the code name snake said: "Yes, it seems that they have indeed been deceived this time." ”

Codename Wolf smiled: "And we don't have to wait for Suzaku Lord to come, we can do it in advance." ”

"That's why, with that guy shooting arrows, we may not be able to do it." The code name snake asked, and suddenly her heart moved, and she looked at the tree next to the official road, and sure enough, she saw a bow and arrow mark on a tree, and said with great joy: "It turns out that the man drove the carriage alone and walked the official road." ”

Codename Wolf smiled: "He probably wanted to lure us away, but it's a pity that I had to take precautions, and this time he was self-defeating." ”

Codename Xiong was more impatient, and roared: "What are you talking about, hurry up and catch up." ”

"Wolf" and "Snake" nodded, and the three of them led the man in blue to the path, running at an astonishing speed, not much slower than the horses.

……

Xia Yurong and the others walked all day, and it was getting late, so they spent the night in a village, they found the largest house in the village, gave the owner ten taels of silver, and the family agreed to give them the house for one night.

Xia Yurong limped and sat down on a chair, how could a delicate young lady like her walk so far, she accidentally sprained her foot, An Yishan and Luo Xiaobei both offered to carry her, but she was only willing to let Wang Gui carry her, so all the way down, most of the time Wang Gui walked on her back.

In the hall, An Yishan said with concern: "Yurong, how are your feet?" Do you want me to show you this? ”

"No, it's much better."

An Yishan snorted secretly, sensing that Xia Yurong was becoming more and more defensive about himself.

After everyone rested for a while, they all felt hungry, so they thought about boiling water to cook, these people in the rivers and lakes are dewy, where can they cook, Xia Yurong has never done housework, and in the end, it was Lu Yun's grandfather and grandson who cooked for everyone.

Deng Cong suddenly felt an urgency to urinate, and went out to solve it under a tree in the courtyard, and suddenly he saw a figure flashing by, which seemed to come out of the house, he was shocked and followed.

I followed all the way to a hillside outside the village, and saw a man in purple standing there with his hands in his hands, Deng Cong was so frightened that he didn't dare to follow him anymore, he hid under a tree and peeked from afar, only to see the figure talking to the man in purple.

By the moonlight, Deng Cong finally saw the man's face clearly, it was actually Leng Pan! His heart sank, and he wanted to turn around and go back to remind everyone.

At this moment, a soft voice sounded in my ears: "Little mouse, what are you peeking at?" ”

Deng Cong was shocked, and was about to turn around, when suddenly his neck hurt, and he was strangled by something, he hurriedly grabbed it with both hands, but where could he pull it?

The woman on the back is the code name Snake, and the blade she uses is called "Silver Snake Silk", which is a special silk and extremely strong. She pressed her knees against Deng Cong's back, and pulled the silver snake silk with both hands and gradually strengthened.
