These sneak attacks came so suddenly that the monks didn't have time to react. In an instant, his eyes were confused, and his feathered arrows and throwing knives were all out of sight. Immediately after, he was hit by the fat man who used the wooden basin.

"Kill-" Wang Han was previously pressed by bows and arrows and throwing knives to hide, and he barely survived by relying on his nimble skills and the big willow trees on the side of the road. Seeing that the monks are in chaos at this moment, how can they miss the opportunity for revenge? With a soft cry from his mouth, he jumped off his mount and galloped on foot, his long sword flashing one after another, stabbing the three monks with bows and arrows to the ground.

"Rush up and kill them all!"

"Kill the bald donkey, and let them run!"

Although Guo Nu and Ren Cong lacked experience in fighting, they also saw that the opportunity should not be missed. Shuangshuang shouted and led the few remaining family members to rush forward, slashing at the monks with swords and horizontal knives.

The biggest weakness of bows and arrows is that they are not suitable for close combat, and throwing knives can only be used as daggers at close range. The monks who were in charge of remote suppression soon couldn't support it and were killed and scattered with their heads in their hands.

Losing the support of their accomplices, the two evil monks suddenly panicked. first made a false move to force Zhang Qian to stumble and parry, and then both turned around and ran away.

Where is the time? Not only did Wang Maobo chase after him with a horizontal knife. Not far from the city gate, there was also a small colonel, with dozens of soldiers armed with knives and guns. There is no need to distinguish between friend and foe at all, and when you see a bald head, you can directly greet you with a weapon. After a short time, all the evil monks and monks were put on the ground.

Zhang Qian received an arrow in his leg and had no strength to pursue the enemy. Therefore, he only shouted to everyone, "Catch alive". Immediately, he found a sheltered place behind a large willow tree and sat down, bowed his head and began to examine the wound.

If he doesn't look at it, he immediately feels dizzy.

It only took a few minutes before and after, and the blood had already moistened his left side of the trousers. And after losing the pressure of survival, the sense of pain quickly became acute. It's like there's a knife that's cutting at his flesh against the bone!

"How? Is the injury serious? Wang Zhihuan was also not interested in chasing and killing the lost dog, so he quickly ran over and asked with concern.

When I saw that there was already blood, it was seeping out from the inside of the cotton robe. Suddenly frightened, his scalp fluttered, and he hurriedly dropped a sentence and went to turn over the corpse of the evil monk. "The monks came prepared, and they must have gold sore medicine with them. You must hold on, I will come when I go! ”

"No, help me pick up a clean knife! I need to find a way to stop the bleeding first! "Just when he crossed over to the vicinity of Xiangji Temple, Zhang Qian had seen gold sore medicine, and he had lingering fears about this thing. hurriedly told him from behind, so as not to be kindly helped by Wang Zhilian.

The latter is younger than him, and admires his mind and talent. Therefore obey his commands. quickly searched the official road, and from the body of the female official who died in vain, he untied a saber that had not had time to come out of its sheath at all, and trotted back.

"Alright, the knife stays. I'm sorry to go and see if anyone else is injured on our side. As long as there is hope for treatment, they will all help me move here! Zhang Qian endured the pain and dizziness, nodded to him, and whispered again.

"Hey, hey!" Wang Zhilian agreed again and again, and ran to the previous battlefield again. Taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention to him, Zhang Qian pulled out a knife and cut the trouser tube into a "high-forked skirt". Then, he picked a clean spot on his robe, cut off a long strip of silk cloth, gritted his teeth, and tied it to the base of his exposed thigh.

The wound was torn by the pressure on the nearby muscles and skin, and in an instant, it hurt to the core. However, the blood showed obvious signs of stopping. "It shouldn't hurt the blood vessels, otherwise Lao Tzu would have confessed a long time ago!" Secretly muttering in his heart, Zhang Qian once again cut out a piece of silk cloth with narrow sleeves from his coat and began to wrap the wound.

There is no need to think about it for the time being, as a conscious official, it is impossible for him to carry liquor in the carriage dedicated to work. And the black powder in the copper pipe has to be kept for "killer use", and it must not be seen by people at the moment.

Fortunately, it is winter, and bacteria and viruses are not active, so there is no hurry to clean the wound now. But after returning to Zhuangzi, I am afraid that it is inevitable to suffer the sin again a second time.

Thinking of black powder, he quickly realized how inconvenient this "killer weapon" in his hand was. Earlier, when the carriage was not smashed, what he wanted to do most was to light the fire and light the lead on the brass pipe. However, until he almost died under the evil monk's Zen staff, the fire broke out without fighting, let alone using the black powder and lead bullets hidden in the copper pipe to give the evil monk a thunderous blow!

"I knew that I would cross, and I should have taken the mechanical department in the first place. At this time, I can't even get a flintlock pistol out, and I still need to carry a broken pipe and fight with people?! Secretly spit out to himself in his heart, Zhang Qian cut a silk belt again, and tied the "high-forked skirt" tightly from the outside, so as not to let everyone come over for a while and admire his white thick legs.

Wang Zhilian was very measured, and deliberately delayed for a moment, until Zhang Qian's side cleaned up, and then he supported the housekeeper Ren Quan and the coachman Zhang Gui, and stumbled back.

There were also other injured family members who saw this scene and helped each other to Zhang Qian's side. In the blink of an eye, under the big willow tree, a circle was formed. Zhang Qian is a person who lacks skills, so he can only teach them to help each other. Remove arrows and knives from each other's bodies, and cut their coats into bandages to urgently bandage their wounds.

Fortunately, it was winter, and the clothes on everyone's bodies were relatively thick. Therefore, as long as they were able to support each other and come over to ask Senior Brother Zhang for help, they were not injured by the monks, and the feather arrows and flying knives were not too deep into the flesh.

And those who are no longer able to get up on their own to ask for help, with the current level of medical technology and medical conditions, Zhang Qian wants to rescue, I am afraid that he will not be able to return to the sky. Therefore, he can only harden his heart for the time being and choose to turn a blind eye.

Not long after, Wang Han, Wang Maobo, Guo Nu and Ren Cong also came over with the rest of the family members who were lucky not to be injured. One by one, the hatred on their faces was unsettled. Without waiting for Zhang Qian to ask, they scolded and reported one after another; "The people of the Hundred Cavalry Division and the people of the Bad Division are here, as well as the people of the Imperial Forest Army and Jingzhao Mansion."

"The yellow-faced thief who took the lead, including the one who was knocked to death by the senior brother, a total of three died and two were captured alive. But the captives were directly taken over by the Hundred Cavalry. The other monks who used bows and arrows and throwing knives were killed by us, and the rest also belonged to the Hundred Cavalry Division! ”

"If you don't come early, if you don't come late, when the overall situation is decided, you will all rush over to share the credit!"

"Damn, Jingzhao Mansion's joining the army is blind. The bald donkey was stabbing in the street, so many pairs of eyes were watching, just now he dared to say to Lao Tzu that it was a mutual beating! ”

……

"Second junior brother, go and see if there are any alive in the family that fell to the ground!" When he was locked up for questioning in the morning, Zhang Qian had already vaguely guessed that there were officials in Jingzhao Mansion who were deeply entangled with the interests of the monks. Therefore, after listening to everyone's complaints, he did not feel disappointed. With a smile, he began to arrange the aftermath tasks.

"Third junior brother, you take a few people to pick it up, the honor guard of the Duke of Baoguo, it's time to go to the city gate at this time. You thank him for me, and ask him to hurry back to his home, so as not to leave Chang'an too far and his safety cannot be guaranteed! ”

"Yes!" Guo Nu agreed, and immediately led people to the ground to find other survivors. And Ren Cong hesitated and lowered his head, and reminded in a small voice, "Senior brother, Bao Guogong was afraid that someone would embarrass us on the road, so he specially came out with a full set of honor guards......"

"The monks have been assassinated in the streets, and there are still people who dare to openly stand up for them?" Zhang Qian glanced at him and interrupted with a sneer.

Ren Cong thought for a moment and nodded slightly. Zhang Qian didn't have time to delay, quickly turned his face to Wang Han, struggled to sit up straight, and apologized: "Brother Ziyu, you and Ji Ling are also involved, Zhang is really sorry for the two." Fortunately, the two of them were not injured, otherwise, Zhang would definitely die today! “

"It's a friend, don't talk about it!" Wang Han immediately took a step forward, resolutely refusing to accept his apology, "I just hate that Wang Mou's skills are too poor and he didn't help you much." I see that the poor men of the Hundred Horsemen and the Bad Division are still waiting for you to ask questions in the distance. Today's wine will definitely not be drunk, and Ji Ling and I will take a step first. When your wound is almost healed one day, I will go to you again to settle this wine debt!! ”

"The two of you are willing to come, Zhang is honored!" Zhang Qian had already seen that there were several groups of heavily armed strangers staring at him from a position more than twenty steps away, so he didn't dare to say anything about the guests, smiled, and said goodbye to Wang Han and Wang Zhilian.

Seeing the two leave, Zhang Qian raised his head and looked around again. I just saw Wang Maobo standing aside with a gourd hammer, alone. So, he nodded at this person again, and asked him to hurry up and ride to his village, and called the family to drive a few more carriages over. lest everyone finish recording a confession with the Hundred Horsemen after a while, but still have to ride home with their wounds.

Wang Maobo was not a person who liked to be verbose by nature, so he silently saluted Zhang and turned around and went straight to his mount. In the blink of an eye, he rode his horse and disappeared on the official road in the distance.

"You go and help me invite the people over there, just say that Zhang is injured and can't take the initiative to report to them. If they have something to ask, please accommodate Zhang! In the end, Zhang Qian set his eyes on Ren's whole body and commanded weakly.

Ren Quan had received an arrow in the shoulder and chest before, but the arrow cluster was neutralized by the silk cotton in his clothes, and finally it was less than an inch into the flesh. So the injuries were not serious, and the action was not delayed in the slightest.

With his experience and eloquence, he is indeed the best choice to carry out the negotiation mission. Soon, with a harmless smiling face and a three-inch tongue, the captain of the Hundred Cavalry Division and the Imperial Forest Army, the leader of the Bad Division and a member of the Jingzhao Mansion were invited to Zhang Qian at the same time.

The four of them originally thought that Zhang Qian was relying on his official position to be higher than all of them, and deliberately put on a show. As a result, when he got closer, he found that Zhang Qian's face was pale, and half of his pants were moistened with blood. Immediately, they were all startled, and they didn't dare to care about any more false courtesy, and shouted in unison: "Young Eunuch Zhang is really injured? Hurry up and go to the Imperial Medical Department. We'll make up for other things later! ”

"No need!" Although his eyelids were heavy for a while, Zhang Qian still shook his head stubbornly, "Zhang Zhuangzi has medicine on it, so there is no need to bother the imperial doctor." Zhang and the group of monks have lived in a vegetarian life, and they don't know any of them. What they are doing today should be clearly seen by the people on the official road and the soldiers at the city gates. Please also catch their accomplices as soon as possible, so as not to make people think that the officials of my Datang are all cattle and sheep, and any monk can pronounce their life and death! ”

"Young Eunuch Zhang's words, the Hundred Cavalry Division will definitely record it. Then investigate strictly to the end, and never let the mastermind behind the scenes escape accountability! Zhou Run, the captain of the Hundred Cavalry Division, immediately gave up his hand and accepted Zhang Qian's words in full.

Zhao An, the captain of the Imperial Forest Army, and Huang Lin, the director of the bad department, saw that Zhang Qian was an official, but he almost died at the hands of a group of monks, and they also felt the same hatred for the enemy. spoke out decisively and deeply agreed with Zhou Run's words.

Only Jing Zhao Yin Yamen came to join the army and used it, and Wu felt that the causes and consequences of the assassination case needed to be carefully sorted out. After hesitating for a moment, he responded in a low voice: "It stands to reason that this case is beyond the jurisdiction of Jingzhao Mansion. But after all, this incident happened at the gate of Chang'an City, and Wen would take someone to assist the Baiqi Division to investigate to the end. In the future, if there is a need to disturb the young prisoner, please bear with me! ”

"Although Wen joins the army, let it go, Zhang will never let you be embarrassed!" Zhang Qian heard the anger in his stomach, but he pretended to be generous and nodded lightly.

The man surnamed Wen joined the army, knowing that his words would definitely offend people. So he didn't dare to continue to ramble on and on, thanked Zhang Qian, and was the first to turn around and leave.

After only three or five steps, they saw two chubby men, pushing away the soldiers surrounding them, and stumbling towards Zhang Qian. While running, he generally shouted for help: "Master Guan, Master Guan, help!" Our brothers gave their lives to help you, but now these soldiers are going to bring us to trial. The two of us are small businesses, and the food of the whole family, young and old, is hung on our cake truck. If the two of us are taken by them, how will the wife and children at home live?! “

"Everyone, be accommodating, and don't embarrass them. If it hadn't been for their brother to rescue him just now, Zhang wouldn't have been so easy to hold on until everyone arrived! Zhang Qian forcibly opened his heavy eyelids and asked Zhou Run, Huang Lin and Zhao An for grant.

"I won't be embarrassed, I won't be embarrassed, since Young Eunuch Zhang has testified to them, I will leave their names and addresses and let them go immediately!" Zhou Run, Huang Lin and Zhao An, lest if they continued to delay, Zhang Qian would die of excessive blood loss, so they nodded decisively and agreed.

"Thank you!" Zhang Qian finally finished handling most of the aftermath work, couldn't bear the tiredness anymore, slowly closed his eyes, and recuperated his spirit. But he didn't have the slightest idea, and in the eyes of Zhou Run, the captain of the Hundred Cavalry Division, there was just a flash of pride.
