At the foot of Wolong Mountain, one mile outside the camp in Qingzhou.

"My lord, Qin Hu didn't come back." The man in black bowed his head and knelt down on one knee in front of Qi Tian and said.

"Didn't come back? Could it be that you have encountered some difficult enemy? Qi Tian frowned, "Send a few people to follow me to that forest and get him back." ”

But the Qingzhou army ...... It seems that there is no one who can be called an opponent, right? Is that guy Qin Hu already weak to this extent, Qi Tian thought again.

"Yes, sir."

After a while, Qi Tian looked at Qin Hu's already stiff corpse with a cold face, and said coldly: "The Qingzhou Army patrol is a team of ten people, there are eight corpses here, find, find, and bring me the heads of the remaining two people." ”

"Yes!" The men in black answered neatly, and immediately scattered and disappeared into the darkness.

......

It was almost impossible to see the burning fire of the camp, and he couldn't see the shadow of the enemy, but Su Jingchen still didn't dare to relax, and every once in a while, he couldn't help but look back to see if there was anything behind him following them. He and Nie Qing were both injured and couldn't walk fast, and this distance could only catch up in a moment with the horsepower of those people.

"Brother Su, you're too cautious," Luo Fu smiled, "You see we're all so far away from the camp." ”

"Well, but be careful." Su Jingchen's face was expressionless, and he raised his eyes and swept the surroundings again.

"So you're too ......" Luo Fu turned sideways and wanted to pat Su Jingchen's shoulder, a crossbow arrow suddenly roared and sank deep into his arm, and it was this action that saved him, and it should have hit his chest. He was stunned for a moment, until the wound slowly oozing blood, he screamed frantically, all the fear that had been accumulated before suddenly exploded at this moment, his eyes were full of fear, he threw away his bow, untied his quiver and threw it aside, and rushed forward desperately, muttering in his mouth: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry." ”

"Can you outrun his arrows like this?!" Su Jingchen roared, turned over and grabbed the bow and arrow thrown by Luo Fu, and flashed behind a thick tree on the side, Nie Qing also threw himself into the deep grass and hidden.

"I'm sorry two brothers! I don't want to die with you! Luo Fu closed his eyes and shouted, although the chance of escaping alone is not great, but it is better than taking two slow-moving wounded, he didn't understand Su Jingchen's words, and thought that Su Jingchen was scolding him for throwing them away and running away alone.

As soon as the words fell, Luo Fu suddenly fell, he pounced hard, the rough ground wiped his face into a bloody blur, the second arrow pierced his entire knee, he almost lost the ability to move, and his legs could no longer stand upright like ordinary people, "Ah, ah, ah-" He lay on the ground and wailed, then turned to look at Su Jingchen, and tried to crawl towards him, "Brother Su, help me!" Please save me! ”

Su Jingchen poked his head out slightly, and looked at the man in black who attacked them, he was probably still eighty steps away, with the speed of that horse, it would not take a moment to come here, and that man was very accurate with a crossbow, if he ran out to save Luo Fu now, he would definitely die. Su Jingchen turned his head to look at Nie Qing, Nie Qing was gasping violently, and when he just threw himself into the grass, those thin and sharp branches poked his wounds that had not yet healed into the flesh and blood, his face was pale, he was almost faint in pain, and he really didn't even have the strength to stand up.

"Climb where there are obstacles!" Su Jingchen roared, Luo Fu nodded fiercely, and used all his strength to crawl towards the nearest tree, but it was still too late, the third crossbow arrow penetrated his eyebrows at the moment he crawled, and the hand he had just raised hung down weakly.

didn't have time to think about it, the black horse continued to approach, Su Jingchen took a deep breath, opened his bow and set up an arrow, raised the bow and fired quickly, and the man in black on the horse immediately hid his body behind the horse, so that the chance of being hit by the arrow would be greatly reduced, but he didn't expect that Su Jingchen didn't plan to aim at him in the first place. His war horse suddenly neighed and fell—Su Jingchen's arrow broke the horse's leg, and the man was thrown out by the sudden force, and after he fell to the ground, he took advantage of the momentum to roll, and immediately pulled out his knife and flashed behind a tree, and was not affected by the horse in the slightest.

"Archers?" The man sneered, "Your bow skills are good, but unfortunately, we are less than twenty paces away now, and I can cut off your head before you can draw your bow." ”

Su Jingchen didn't answer, he quietly observed the man's movements, and pulled out another arrow from his quiver. The man was half-hunched and held the knife in front of him, he had already determined Su Jingchen's location, and the surrounding trees were thick, it was a good cover, and now he just needed to find a chance. The man suddenly flashed out from behind the tree and pounced on another tree like a leopard, and Su Jingchen's arrow also shot over, tearing open a hole in the man's clothes and scratching some flesh.

This is the opportunity for the man to wait, it also takes time from Su Jingchen to take the arrow to aim and shoot the arrow, and this time is enough time to break in front of him! The man didn't stop behind the tree, and rushed straight towards Su Jingchen with a knife, but he was suddenly stunned, Su Jingchen had already raised his bow and aimed at him.

No way! Even the best archer in the world is no more than that, and the person in front of him is just a little ghost, and he can't have that kind of ability. "Bluff!" The man shouted, then jumped up suddenly, raised his knife and was about to chop, Su Jingchen also shot the arrow out at the same time as he raised the knife, the knife and arrow collided, and the man couldn't parry? ! He shouted again, swung his knife hard, threw Su Jingchen's arrow out, turned the blade of the knife and aimed at Su Jingchen again, Su Jingchen rolled backwards, and another arrow was released.

The man didn't expect that this young man's archery skills were so exquisite, he had just landed and had not yet stood firmly, and he had no time to parry, he turned his body sideways, and the arrow still left a terrible wound on his body that was deep and bone-piercing. The man gritted his teeth and raised his knife again, he already realized that only close quarters could kill this imp, and every little distance between him and that imp would be a point lower.

Su Jingchen buckled the two arrows on the bowstring and shot them as he ran, the two arrows pounced on the man's heart like a swooping falcon, and the man swung his knife and slashed left and right, but he also blocked the arrows. But this is not over, the man didn't have time to put away the knife, the third arrow whistled again, the arrow of this little ghost was faster than he imagined, the man had no chance to dodge, so he had to take the arrow with his body. The arrow sank deep into his chest, just an inch away, and it was his own heart that was pierced.

"You don't have a chance." The man showed his bloodstained teeth and sneered, at this moment Su Jingchen was in front of him, as long as he raised his knife and slashed, he could cut off his head with one sword. In fact, he did so, he thought that Su Jingchen would use the bow to block the blow, but Su Jingchen let go of both hands, grabbed the bow with one hand and fell, and the man split Su Jingchen's fragile leather armor in half, leaving a deep cut in his chest.

Su Jingchen raised his foot and kicked the man's lower abdomen hard, but the man didn't move, he laughed and said, "Is that all you have so much strength?" ”

Su Jingchen didn't speak, he used his strength to slide a short distance on the ground, but this distance was enough for him to pull his bow.

The last arrow was off the string, and the man had no chance to pounce forward, he lowered his hand holding the knife, looked at the arrow that pierced his heart, and slowly knelt down, waiting for the last trace of life in his body to pass.

"I can't imagine that there are such young heroes in the world......" he said at last.

Su Jingchen fell to the ground and gasped heavily, the wound on his chest was still oozing blood, staining his entire clothes red, but fortunately, it was just a flesh wound and not life-threatening.

"Brother Nie, are you okay?" Su Jingchen struggled to sit up, untied his breastplate and threw it away.

"It's okay," Nie Qing's face was pale, and his lips were even more white and terrifying, as if he hadn't recovered from the pain just now, he just wanted to come over to help Su Jingchen, but the injury in his chest seemed to drain all the strength of his body, and he couldn't even stand up, "It's you, Brother Su, are you okay?" ”

"It's okay, it's just a flesh wound," Su Jingchen struggled to stand up, he picked up the man's knife and chopped down two branches that looked quite sturdy, limped to Nie Qing's side as a crutch, and then stretched out his hand to him, "Can you still stand up, Brother Nie, we have to go." ”

"Hmm," Nie Qing relied on Su Jingchen's support to stand up with difficulty, took the crutches in his hand, and the figures of the two people walked farther and farther away towards the gradually whitening sky, and finally disappeared on the horizon.

In the eleventh year of Tianfu, in May, the last army of King Qin, the Qingzhou Army, was submerged in Wolong Mountain, and King Mu of Qingzhou was killed by ten thousand arrows in the chaos of the army, and all 30,000 soldiers were buried under the iron hooves of Tuoba Yan.

It wasn't until a long, long time later that someone remembered that the fire was like daylight.

......

Chijiang South, Chu Nan Mountain.

The fire in the cave was emitting a faint glow, and Su Jingchen helped Nie Qing to lie down and fed him two sips of water. Nie Qing's face was pale and terrible, and he was still having a fever, his physique was already weak, the burn wound a month ago did not get better, but worsened, pus kept coming out of the scabbed wound, along the way they were hungry with wild fruits, the river water was full of hunger, it was already a great luck not to meet the thief, and he didn't dare to find Lang Zhong to heal the injuries on his body, Nie Qing suddenly coughed heavily, he tried to raise his head to look at Su Jingchen, and said weakly: "Brother Su, thank you so much along the way, it's very hard to drag me such a burden." ”

Su Jingchen shook his head vigorously and looked at Nie Qing without saying a word. Su Jingchen's body is full of skin trauma, which has almost healed half a month ago, but there are still some residual scabs on the wound on his chest, and he is taking care of Nie Qing all the way, Nie Qing has said countless times to let him throw himself down, but I don't know why, Su Jingchen didn't do it once.

After being silent for a long time, he finally said this time, "I hate the feeling of being left behind, as if I was the only one left in heaven and earth. ”

Nie Qing smiled ugly and said, "Really? But now you have to leave it behind if you don't leave it behind. ”

"Why?"

"I'm going to die." Nie Qing's voice was hoarse, "I didn't die on the battlefield, I actually died in this cave, I am so unwilling." ”

"Brother Su, you have to live well!" Nie Qing Dynasty Su Jingchen stretched out his hand and grabbed his shoulder tightly, "Live to the end of this troubled world, and use your eyes to see the emergence of a truly peaceful prosperous era on my behalf." ”

"To the south, you have to go south, there, so that the fire of Daxi can be rekindled." Nie Qing muttered in a low voice, his eyes gradually clouded, his voice became smaller and smaller, and finally, his hand hung down weakly.

"Well, I will," Su Jingchen lowered his head, making it impossible to see the expression on his face, "I will personally end this troubled world." ”
