At this moment, there are few people around Cao Liang, Jia Chong and people surround him, seeing that Cao Liang has no way to escape, Jia Chong is excited, it seems that this great credit can't be run.

Just as the black-clothed dead man was slowly approaching, and a hand-to-hand fight was inevitable, suddenly there were several arrows breaking through the air from the left rear wing, and several black-clothed dead soldiers screamed and fell to the ground and died.

Jia Chong and the others were taken aback, seeing that the black-clothed dead soldiers who fell to the ground were all pierced by crossbow arrows in their temples, such accurate archery skills were not something that ordinary people could do, they immediately put themselves on guard and looked in the direction where the crossbow arrows came from.

Could it be that all this is a trap, Cao Liang deliberately lured them here, secretly ambushed the crossbowmen, and wanted to snipe them?

Jia Chong and the others looked over, but they only saw some broken roofs, and they didn't see half a figure at all.

Just as their attention was focused on the left, there were several arrows breaking through the air behind their heads, and several black-clad dead soldiers fell to the ground and died, this time the crossbow arrows were also shot extremely well, all piercing the back of several people's heads.

This time, Jia Chong and the others are really not calm, Cao Liang is ambushing the crossbowmen here, condescending, no matter how many of them are, they will give it for nothing, and the archery skills of these crossbowmen are extremely accurate, almost uncommon, the arrows hit the vital point, such a terrifying archery, they have no power to parry at all.

Jia Chong's soul is in danger, at this time he is really glad that those hidden shooters did not take him as a target, if he is unlucky, he is afraid that there is already a transparent hole in his head at this moment.

Under this threat of death, Jia Chong still has the courage to stay any longer, although the credit for capturing and killing Cao Liang is great, but compared to his life, it is simply insignificant, in this case, of course, it is important to save his life, Jia Chong shouted: "Withdraw!" And he fled.

In the process of retreating, there were cold arrows constantly attacking, although the black-clothed dead men had already taken the way to escape, but those crossbow arrows were still like long eyes, frequently hitting the vital points of these black-clothed dead soldiers, and many people died in the escape, which also forced Jia Chong to flee farther, until they escaped the range of the crossbow arrows, which was a sigh of relief.

Cao Liang showed a relaxed smile on his face, it seems that this time he made the right bet again.

These hidden crossbowmen were really not arranged by Cao Liang in advance, those soldiers in Cao Mansion used crossbows to shoot intensively, and if they really wanted to be snipers, it would be too far away, and if they shot ten crossbow arrows, I am afraid it would be difficult for one of them to hit the vital point.

Since Cao Liang was rescued by mysterious people when he was ambushed by the killers of the Sima family in Maolong Garden eight years ago, although those mysterious people never showed up, Cao Liang always felt that they were not far from him, secretly protecting him.

Of course, it was not Cao Liang's illusion, I remember the battle of Huainan a few years ago, when Anfengdu broke through, how dangerous the scene was, Cao Liang couldn't believe that he could actually get out of the encirclement of the Wu army, at that time, Cao Liang felt that there was an invisible force protecting him, clearing the danger in front of him, and bringing him a fairly smooth road.

Later, in the Battle of Hanzhong and the Battle of Bingzhou, although Cao Liang never encountered the danger of endangering his life again, Cao Liang faintly felt that there was always a force around him to protect his safety.

Similarly, when he returned to Luoyang this time, Cao Liang also felt that this power had not disappeared, but had been hidden in the dark, so Cao Liang dared to rest assured and boldly arrange Fang Bu to go to Daxiamen, because Cao Liang believed that in times of crisis, someone would definitely help.

Sure enough, everything was not out of Cao Liang's expectations, when he was in danger, the mysterious person who had protected him appeared again, and the same decisiveness and ruthlessness forced these black-clothed dead soldiers to retreat.

After Jia Chong and the others retreated, Cao Liang immediately stepped forward and said: "Thank you for your help, I am grateful, can you come out and see it, let me thank you in person." ”

Although Cao Liang warmly invited, he also felt that there was not much hope, after all, the last time these mysterious people came to help, they disappeared, for so many years, they have been hiding in the shadows, refusing to show up, it is estimated that this time will be like last time, the clothes are gone, and the merit and fame are hidden.

But unexpectedly, these mysterious people didn't hide anymore this time, they all jumped out and stood in front of Cao Liang, which surprised Cao Liang.

There were no more or no less people in this group, just ten people, all dressed in green clothes, covered with black scarves, and before Cao Liang could speak, one of the leaders said first: "General Cao, this place is not a place to stay for a long time, let's talk about it in detail in another place." ”

Cao Liang naturally knew that although Jia Chong was defeated, it was very likely that he would gather the dead to make a comeback, so this place was really not a place to talk, so they left here together and headed in the direction of the Great Xia Gate.

The buildings in this slum are disorganized, and as long as Cao Liang leaves this place, even if Jia Chong brings more dead soldiers, he may not be able to find Cao Liang again.

Cao Liang walked quickly along the way, but there were countless questions in his heart, where did these mysterious people come from? Who have they been assigned to keep themselves safe for so many years?

After evacuating to a safe place, Cao Liang stopped first, but before he could ask, the mysterious man led by him had already taken off the black masked scarf, and it was a sturdy man about forty years old, he smiled slightly, and said: "General Cao, I think you have a lot of questions in your heart, and I can answer them for you today, but the time is urgent, and it can only be a long story short." In the next Chaonan, he was originally a palace guard, and nine years ago, he was entrusted by the Lord to ward off evil spirits and secretly protect General Cao. The Lord of the Evil Spirits confessed, unless someone launched a rebellion, otherwise we can only be incognito and hidden, and now what the Lord said has become a reality, so I met with the general, and from then on, I will saddle up the horse and protect the safety of the general. ”

Cao Liang listened, sure enough, they have a great background, they are the royal guards, and they were appointed by the Huangmen squire who was favored by the first emperor to ward off evil spirits, and came to protect themselves, presumably their arrival is closely related to the secret edict, and the evil spirits are Cao Ei's henchmen, and everything he does, I'm afraid it comes from Cao Ei's instructions, so the one who really sent people to protect himself is probably the Wei Ming Emperor Cao Ei, who has long collapsed.
