The sky was gradually darkening, and dark clouds were rolling down the sky.

"Lord Baihu, those two Lu fugitives have already rowed towards the other side in the water! I've sent ten soldiers who know how to swim through the water, and I won't let them escape! A ten-and-a-half kneeling man said.

"They must not be allowed to run away! Send ten more men to swim over, and all of them will follow me to the front village, and drive over the river, and be sure to catch them before they flee to the mountains. The color of the eyes of the hundred households said with a pale face.

The ten households who had previously commanded and tracked Shang Yu immediately got up and got on his horse, turned his horse's head and galloped towards the soldiers on the shore, and shouted: "Three soldiers, six soldiers, quickly swim to the opposite shore and hunt down the fugitives!" ”

After a few breaths, the ten Semu people swam again to the opposite shore.

At this time, the hundred households of the colored eyes rode their horses and shouted, "Come with me to the abandoned village not far ahead, and we must not let the little man who killed Lord Walter escape!" ”

Behind him, hundreds of Sefumu soldiers agreed in an uproar, and although Walter, who led them all the way after him, was not favored in front of Safudin, because his bloodline was not pure Persian, but Walter had been lurking in Quanzhou City for a long time, and he was Safudin's nephew, and he was responsible for the important task of buying useful talents in the city for the Persian Semu people and collecting various information, and he was still very sensitive to his identity among the Persian Semu.

Walter died under the strange crossbow arrows, and the several crossbow arrows had been collected by the hundred-hundred-household, and after careful observation, the hundred-hundred-household was very interested in this kind of crossbow arrows, and from Walter's own casual mouth, it was Shang Yu, the little steward of the Lu family who escaped into the water, who fired the crossbow arrows.

If the Killer of Walter was allowed to escape, although Safuddin would not punish him after this battle, the position of the Dead Soldier Battalion would inevitably be replaced by several battalions of men and horses from other places who were also engaged in assassination and looting, which would be an unimaginable blow to him, a hundred households who were expected to be promoted to a thousand households after several years of meritorious service.

More than 100 colored cavalry immediately brought up a cloud of dust and smoke and galloped downstream along the river bank.

Ding 17 and the others stood at the foot of the mountain in fear, and the more than a dozen surviving family members and maids faced several soldiers with steel swords, and when they reached the shore, they climbed ashore one after another, and began to flee to the woods on the other side of the river under the organization of Ding 13.

But these family members and maids were not very strong, and in the winter into the water, under the physical discomfort, they could not escape at all, a quarter of an hour later they were caught up by more than twenty soldiers who came from the water, leaving a few soldiers to guard them, and the rest ran downstream along the river bank a quarter of a quarter ago, obviously tracking Shang Yu and Lu Wan.

"The dogs are not allowed to move, if they move, they will kill you!" A soldier shouted loudly in Chinese, and at this time he and several soldiers saw that the bodies of the maids were full of bumps, and their hearts were full of desire, so they shouted and cursed, so as to suppress the fire in their hearts, not because they did not want to indulge, but because the chief officer had not yet come to enjoy it, and if they acted on these women first, they would inevitably be scolded afterwards.

Ding Qiqi couldn't help but be furious when he heard this, and he immediately scolded loudly in Persian, "Bastard! If it weren't for our Central Plains people who took in you foreign slaves back then and let you recuperate in the central Fujian area, you dogs would not be able to survive to this day. ”

"If there were no Han people in our Central Plains, you dogs would still be living in the desert with clay pots and bowls, and it was our Central Plains people who gave you everything, and now you dare to scold us for being Han dogs? You ungrateful beasts! Persian was learned by Ding XVII when he was shopping with Persian merchants in the city, and he spoke it fluently.

"You Han dog actually reverses black and white? Minzhong was originally the land of Minyue, and many years ago we Persians lived here, what are the Han people? It's just a slave in the Central Plains who lost the land of the country, and I must kill you, a man who dares to talk back! When the man heard Ding Thirteen's words, he shouted loudly, and brandished the scimitar in his hand and slammed it towards Ding Seventeen.

The rest of the family and maids couldn't help but shrink their bodies when they saw this scene, and they were all terrified of the steel knife in the hands of the Semu people.

Only Mu 13 stepped forward and stood in front of Ding 17, although he was only as tall as the shoulders of the Semu soldiers, he said angrily: "The Minyue people are also from the Central Plains, only a slave like you will regard you Persians as so noble!" If it weren't for the Minyue people who took in your fleeing Persian caravan, you would have been wiped out by the Wa Kingdom during the Northern Song Dynasty, which is a well-known history in Quanzhou, and you actually say that we reverse black and white? It's ridiculous. ”

Although he was young, the newborn calf was not afraid of tigers, and when it fell into the hands of the Semu people, he knew that it would be difficult to escape for his life, so he angrily rebuked the Semu soldiers.

"You damn little dog!" The soldier was immediately furious and raised his scimitar to slash at Mu Thirteen's head.

Mu Shisan immediately closed his eyes in fright at this time, and when he knew that he was going to die, he heard a scream not far behind him, which was Xiao Yingdi's scream.

"Don't!"

But the pain of the blade in his imagination was not felt after a few breaths, and Mu Shisan opened his eyes and saw a strange scene.

A masked woman dressed in white was using two fingers to slash at him with a scimitar of a colored soldier, as if she were holding a small wooden stick, and he couldn't help but have a strange thought in his heart: "Isn't it Guanyin Bodhisattva who appeared to save us?" ”

"Where did you come from, you thief?" When the soldier saw the sudden flower in front of him, this masked woman in white appeared, who could actually hold her own scimitar with two fingers, as if it had taken root in mid-air, and couldn't help but ask in a daze.

"Are you with the people who plundered the convoy?" The woman in white didn't answer, she didn't move, she just asked in a cold voice.

With a scimitar in her fingers, she looked at the soldier with a cold gaze, and the question seemed to be casual and casual, but the cold and piercing voice made the soldier shiver in his heart.

"Who are you? You're not from the Lu family? You came from the other side? Only then did the soldier realize the meaning of the other party's question, and couldn't help asking.

"Say, if you don't want to die as ugly as those soldiers who plundered the convoy, then tell the whereabouts of the second Miss Lu clan quickly!" The woman in white still didn't answer, but continued to ask coldly.

"What do you say? The soldiers of the dead battalion who plundered the convoy are all dead? How is this possible? Could it be that a large group of soldiers got the news and came to arrest and kill them? The soldier's pupils immediately constricted, and he asked in shock, letting go of his hands on the Persian scimitar.

"Without the Yuan soldiers, it wouldn't take a lot of effort to kill those people, since you don't want to say it, then forget it!" The woman in white shook her fingers, and the Persian scimitar made of fine iron turned into pieces, and the fragments of the ground flashed with cold light, and all the swift sounds flew into the heads, chests and abdomen of the soldiers of the colored eyes.

The woman in white flashed, reappeared in front of another soldier and asked in a cold voice, "Tell me the whereabouts of the second lady of the Lu family, and leave your whole body!" ”

After listening to the words of the woman in white, the se-eyed soldier swung his knife and slashed at her without saying a word, but his eyes were full of horror.

"What a stubborn slave!" The woman in white sighed, stretched out her hand and flicked a finger, and the scimitar that slashed instantly shattered into countless pieces, and shot into the soldier's body quickly, exactly the same as the previous soldier's death.

Seeing the skills of this woman in white, all the families and maids led by Ding Seventeen and Mu Thirteen were stunned.

When the rest of the soldiers saw the ghostly figure of the woman in white, they immediately threw down their scimitars and knelt on the ground to bow to her, and one of them said: "You must be the messenger sent by Allah, otherwise how could there be such a miracle!" Please don't kill us, the second lady of the Lu clan should be heading northwest to the mountain, and we have more than a dozen soldiers going to arrest us. With that, he pointed in a direction, which was the direction in which more than a dozen soldiers of color were going.

After hearing this, the woman in white nodded, but said in her mouth: "Poor Difan slave, I am not your messenger of Allah!" I hope that you will be born in your homeland in the next life. As he spoke, his figure flashed and disappeared in place.

After a gust of wind, the voice of the woman in white came from afar in mid-air.

"You family members and maids have taken refuge in the woods in front of you for a while, and I will bring your second lady back later!" When the voice finally came, the woman in white should have been far away.

At this time, several soldiers who were kneeling on the ground fell to the ground, and the expressions on their faces were frozen in the reverent state of the previous moment, but they were all dead, but they could not see how they were killed.

"Oh my God! She must have been descended from Guanyin Bodhisattva, and she must have seen our Lu convoy looted, so she came down to help us! Ding Qiqi muttered as he looked at the dead soldiers.

Mu 13 said at this time: "Guanyin Bodhisattva is the Lord who saves the suffering and saves the suffering, and this goddess must be the Nine Heavens Xuannu who kills demons and saves all sentient beings in my opinion!" ”

Ding Qiqi nodded and said, "Anyway, let's hurry up and take everyone to the woods first!" Since this goddess asked us to wait, she will definitely come back with the second young lady. ”

All the family members and maids, led by Mu 13 and Ding 17, trembled and walked hand in hand to the woods hundreds of paces away.

The land that the woman in white showed them was so shocking that she could shatter the steel knife with her fingers, which in their minds was a skill that only gods had, and since the other party had asked them to wait in the woods, they naturally believed in it.

Shang Yu carried Lu Wan on his back and ran hard towards the mountain in the woods, if it was usual, even if he carried Lu Wan on his back for a day, he would not feel tired, but at this moment, his body was soaked in the river, and he was already cold, and the rest in the last few days was not very good, and his physical strength gradually declined, but he felt that his legs were as heavy as lead.

Not far behind him, however, he heard the shouts of the soldiers of the earth, but he did not dare to stop, and as he ran, he thought, "Maybe running ashore is not the best choice!" In the map of the trade route that I remember, there were no villages on this road and on both sides of the river until Yongchuan, and there were only two villages across the mountain to the northwest. ”

Thinking of this, Shang Yu couldn't help but cry out in his heart, and then thought: "These people are obviously afraid that I will go down the river to the vicinity of Yongchuan County, so they called people to shout on the shore, so that I misunderstood and went ashore, so they sent people to swim over to chase me, only hoping to find a hiding place on the mountain, hoping to escape their tracking!" ”

"Wooden fish! Where have we been? Lu Wan asked a little confusedly on Shang Yu's back, she had already begun to have a fever on her body, and the lichen on her body was already full of dirt, and a cold chill surrounded the two of them.

"Xiao Wan! We will soon be in the middle of the mountains, and the people will never find us again, and we will not feel cold if we light a fire. Shang Yu replied after moving Lu Wan's body up behind him to make Lu Wan's posture more comfortable.

At this moment, a flash of lightning flashed in the sky, and a thunderclap sounded in the sky, and the sky was covered with dark clouds and finally began to rain winter rain on the earth.

When the rain fell intensively, Shang Yu couldn't help but be overjoyed, and said in his heart: "This rain is good!" If so, the traces I left on the road will never be found by the Lusters! I might as well take advantage of this opportunity to climb over the hill so that I can escape. ”

Just as he was thinking of this, a shout suddenly came from behind him: "Little Han dog! Don't run, and I'll shoot you with an arrow. ”

Shang Yu looked back, and couldn't help but be frightened and immediately turned around and ran towards the mountain again with Lu Wan on his back, it turned out that there were already two Semu soldiers chasing him only a few dozen steps away, and one of them was putting away the knife, and was taking out the bow and arrow behind his back to bend the bow to shoot at him, at this time, he didn't run until when.

In this hurry, Shang Yu forgot that his legs and feet were sore, numb and swollen, and his body ran forward like an arrow, and at this time he struggled to escape to the mountain.
