Chapter 3: Outlaw

After a night of tracking

Kumu was resting by a lake, took out his water bladder and washed his hands and cheeks first, rinsed his mouth, and then slowly drank a few sips of water, last night when he left the town to chase the two of them according to the mark left by Ji Wuying, he met three groups of robbers one after another on the way, one of which made him think about it so far

If it was just robbers, even if this was a small border town in the south, it would not have met three groups of robbers in succession, and the number of those three groups of robbers was no less than twenty, not to mention the last group of robbers, no, it would not be robbers at all

The command of advance and retreat, the skillful knife skills, and the figure of the gang of robbers, not to mention how strong and brave they were, at least they were all young and strong, and it was impossible to be robbers, and it was impossible for such a group of robbers to be so young

It looks like a border sergeant

Kumu thought like this, although the strength of the other party was very different from him, and it was not something that could be made up by the number of people at all, but thinking of Ji Wuying and Zhou Budo, Kumu's brows couldn't help frowning

Could it be that they also met the same robbers

Thinking of this, Kumu still had to rest, put the water bladder into the mezzanine of his jacket, picked up his bloodstained saber from the ground, and prepared to continue on the road to start chasing Ji Wuying

It can be said that what he is relieved of is only Ji Wuying's light skills, although rumors are rumors, but after this day, he has not stopped chasing several times and has not caught up with the old man who carries a cumbersome Zhou Budo, he already knows the rumored Ji Wuying's light skills, but in case there are more than 100 people in front of him to set up an ambush, this will be dangerous.

After all, as far as he knew, the number of times the old man had shot was almost none, which made him even more worried about Zhou Budo's safety

But not long after Kumu got up, he was about to go to lead the horse he had bought from the post station, when a sharp arrow shot out of the wind

The eagle-like arrow hit the horse directly, and the foal, which had been staying by the lake and bowing its head to drink, fell in response and lost its breath

"Kumu, you killed my person who held the gold division for no reason, no matter what you say, you have to give me an explanation, right?"

As soon as the words fell, a gust of wind arose, and the surrounding trees were swept by this strong wind, and they were already about to pull up the roots of the trees, and they swayed non-stop

Sou! Sou! Sou!

There were three more eagle cries, although the noise brought by the wind drowned out the sound, but Kumu's intuition had already sensed the direction at the moment when the arrow was shot, Kumu knew that it was too late to dodge now, and hurriedly turned sideways to pick three kinds in succession, chop, and chop, which was worthy of knocking the three sharp arrows that were originally shot at him away, but although they were knocked away, Kumu's arm that originally held the sword trembled faintly

Master!

Kumu's first reaction was that the other party was an archery master, at least this three consecutive rings of the hand was enough to seriously injure any martial arts master by surprise

After the wind and sand fell, Kumu took a second look, and dozens of people wearing fiery red tiger robes and carrying quivers appeared on the originally empty wilderness

And the person led by these people, the bow and arrow in his hand had just been put down, and he saw calluses between the three fingers of the palm of this person's hand, and the three arrows should have been shot by this person just now

Kumu put on a defensive posture, and when he was wondering who this person was, his eyes caught a glimpse of the token on the man's waist, and then thought of the uniform clothing of these dozens of people and the strange beasts embroidered on the corners of his clothes, he already understood what kind of force he was facing

Although he was a little embarrassed just now, his iceberg-like face remained unchanged, and after Kumu changed his sword from his left hand to his right hand, he asked, "Commander of the Ruling Clan, I remember that I have no grudge against you and others, right?" ”

The commander of the Jinsi snorted coldly, put away his bow and arrows, and waved his hand back, and then the dozens of people behind him stood in two rows, and then four people carried two stretchers and carried them to Kumu's eyes

"Take a good look for yourself"

Seeing that the other party was willing to give him a chance to explain, Kumu slowly put away his sword and walked forward

On the two stretchers, there were two corpses that had been dead for a while, but looking at the outfits, they should be under the command of the ruling gold commander

When Kumu was about to ask what this had to do with him, the two places above the two corpses puzzled him

Because these two corpses were killed with one blow, and looking at the scars, it was a sword wound at a glance, but Kumu looked at it carefully, and instantly understood why the other party came to him

"Hmph, you seem to get it? No matter how many people can do it, just those two residual sword qi are clearly the sword qi of the sword technique that you have cultivated in Kumu, how do you explain it? ”

Kumu shrugged his shoulders, his eyes narrowed slightly, although he hadn't figured out what was going on, how could there be his sword qi on these two corpses, but now at this time, it was clear that he couldn't wash it even if he jumped into the Yellow River

"It seems that you have acquiesced, so bury me in this wilderness today."

The voice fell, and the commander of the Jin Division bent his bow and arrows again, unlike the previous times, this time he directly pulled out five arrows from the quiver with five fingers, and easily put these five arrows on the wind, it seems that three consecutive rings are not the limit of this commander

Seeing their own commander doing this, the dozens of people who held the gold division also dispersed and tightly surrounded the bitter wood, but they had no intention of taking out their bows and arrows

Seeing that the development of things was no longer the time to explain clearly, Kumu held the sword in his right hand again, thinking in his heart that he had just dodged the three arrows and was already a little embarrassed, and then he really had to resist this obviously more powerful five consecutive rings?

"Give me death!"

The eyes of the commander of the ruling gold division narrowed slightly, his fingers loosened, and five sharp arrows shot straight out, like five poisonous snakes spitting letters, flying in five directions, it seems that this person has no intention of giving Kumu a chance to dodge, and wants to shoot Kumu directly at one time

And the other side

After Ji Wuying comforted Zhou Budo to fall asleep, the deep eyes that looked at Zhou Budo were full of pity

He Kumu guessed correctly, along the way, the two of them also met a group of border soldiers disguised as bandits, and those people didn't give Ji Wuying a chance to speak at all, and when they met, they directly slashed at the two with their respective weapons

Fortunately, Ji Wuying was athletic and dodged, and hurriedly escaped before the other party formed an encirclement around them, but even so, Ji Wuying was still shot with an arrow

And after Ji Wuying calmed Zhou Budo now, he bandaged his wounds, and all kinds of doubts surfaced in his heart, as far as he could see, those people were clearly coming for Zhou Budo, but only a few people knew the news of Zhou Budo's presence in the small city, and those people didn't have the motive to attack Zhou Budo if they thought about it carefully, but apart from those people, who had such weight that they could mobilize a team of border troops to ambush at will, not to mention that his arrow wound was shot when he was passing through the woods not long after escaping the encirclement, Although his spiritual power is not very strong, the person who can hide his mental power and be able to dodge the arrow shot in the woods is definitely not an ordinary person

Characters of this level, plus the border army, all obeyed the orders of the same person or force to assassinate Zhou Budo

After analyzing it like this, Ji Wuying's forehead couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, and he subconsciously glanced back at Zhou Budo, only a few people know the true identity of the prince, and he happens to be one of those people, with that kind of identity, mistakes are absolutely not allowed

But at this time

Zhou Budo is gone?

At the moment when Ji Wuying was just bandaged, when he looked back again, Zhou Budo, who was originally lying down and asleep, had disappeared out of thin air?

Ji Wuying's expression changed greatly, the target of those people was Zhou Budo, but at this time, Zhou Budo suddenly disappeared, which made his brain blank in an instant, and he couldn't care about the injury on his back, so he picked up the scabbard of Kumu and was about to look for Zhou Budo

"Your Royal Highness, don't let anything happen to you."

The other party can kidnap Zhou Budo without knowing it, which is not a good thing, Ji Wuying is confident that even if a person of Kumu's level wants to take Zhou Budo away without paying attention, it is impossible, but in this way, isn't the other party stronger than Kumu?

Ji Wuying's face could no longer hold that approachable look, and was replaced by a panicked face
