Chapter 58: Take You Home
It's deserted, and it's a long detour, and if you walk back on your feet, it's estimated that it will take more than three days and three nights.
Meng Zhong had already sent people to look elsewhere to see if there were any horses or other means of transportation.
When Nam Zhi and Xuan He returned to the camp, the others also returned, and they went their separate ways to look for them, and when they couldn't find them, they came back to wait for news. Seeing that Xuan He brought people back, he was unconsciously relieved.
When he returned to the camp, the man looking for the horses also returned, bringing with him a dozen good horses and a carriage.
Meng Zhong walked up to Nanzhi and arched his hand: "Princess, please get into the carriage first, although this carriage is a little shabby, but please take a look." ”
Nanzhi shook his head, looked at Xuan He and said, "Xuan He, you take the carriage, and Nuomin, you two get in the carriage, I want to ride a horse!" So saying, he walked towards a group of horses.
Xuan He trotted to her side and took her hand, "I'm fine, let's sit in the carriage for Nomin!" I also ride horses. ”
"How can this work?" Nanzhi strongly objected, "You don't know how heavy the injuries on your body are!" I won't allow you to be strong! ”
Xuan He smiled, in fact, he felt that it was a little bad to share a carriage with Nuo Min, after all, he and Nanzhi were already lovers.
"It's okay, it's just a day's journey, I can stand it!"
"Xuan He!" Nanzhi didn't understand, why was Xuanhe so stubborn, obviously his body was injured like this, why was he still disobedient?
"If you're really worried, don't you?" Xuan He's thought turned, "Why don't you ride a horse with me and I'll sit behind you?" ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Xuan He in amazement, especially Nuo Min, who stepped forward in stride, "How can this work?" Anan is a woman, you are a man, how can you ride a horse with Anan? "Anan is my sister-in-law, how can I let you take advantage, Nuo Min said silently in his heart.
"Why doesn't this work? Namggyi is already my man. Xuan He argued with her.
"What?" Nuo Min jumped up and punched Xuan He, "What did you do to Anan last night?" How did she become your man? You said! ”
Everyone also looked at each other with gossipy eyes, going back and forth between Nanzhi and Xuanhe.
Xuan He rubbed his chest and looked at Nanzhi with some grievances, "Nanzhi has promised me to be with me, and I didn't talk nonsense!" ”
Nanzhi sighed, looked at Nomin who was about to jump up again, and hurriedly grabbed her hand, "Okay, Nomin, hurry back to your carriage, we're leaving!" ”
"What about him!" Nuo Min asked, pointing at Xuan He.
Nanzhi then thought of a girl from Nuo Min, and it was indeed inappropriate to let Xuanhe sit in a carriage with her.
"I'll take him on horseback."
"What he said is true? Are you really with him? After Nuo Min asked, the people around him also pricked up their ears and looked at Nanzhi with a gossipy face.
"yes."
"And what about my brother?" Nuo Min looked at her with an accusatory face, pointed at Xuan He and asked, "My brother likes you so much, you actually like this little white face!" ”
Xuan He knocked her hand off, "It's your brother who is black, your whole family is black, and you are also black!" Hum! ”
"You!" Nuo Min stomped his feet angrily, looked at Nanzhi and looked at Xuanhe.
"Okay, okay, Nomin is not dark at all, Nomin is the cutest, we have to hurry up, after the delay, it will be dark, and everyone will be dark by then!"
Nomin pouted, snorted, and walked back into the carriage.
Nanzhi sighed, shook his head and thought, this child is really tired!
"Alright, General Meng, we can go." As he spoke, he turned over and got on the horse, stretched out a hand, and said that Xuanhe pulled it up.
Xuanhe still had gauze wrapped in one hand, and could only wrap one hand around Nanzhi's waist.
Nanzhi looked at the hand around his waist, very uncomfortable, when had he ever been held like this?
"Hold on, I'm riding a little fast!"
Xuan He nodded, his body was closer, but he still kept his distance, Xuan He knew that it would take time for Nanzhi to get used to being with him, so he couldn't rush it.
Nanzhi saw that his hand was just grabbing his waist, and his other hand was injured, which was very unsafe, so he pulled his hand around his waist, and Xuan He's whole person was attached to it.
Xuan He said silently in his heart, just for safety! Safety is paramount! A smile unconsciously appeared on his face, and his hand was silently clenched.
As soon as Namggyi and the others could not leave, a large number of men and horses approached the previous camp, and it was the person who Nanggyi couldn't chase before.
The leader dismounted and inspected the surroundings, and the man must have just left, thinking that he would get on his horse and lead the man to chase forward.
Today is calm, not as strong as before, so the whereabouts of Nanzhi and his party are intact. The group behind them followed their horseshoe prints.
Nanzhi and his party dragged the carriage and walked unhurriedly, until noon, Meng Zhong beat the horse and walked to Nanzhi's side, "There are still sixty miles to go to the border pass, General Song is always guarding over there, waiting for the princess and General Song Xiao to go back!" ”
When Nanzhi heard this, his face couldn't help but be a little moved, like a child who hadn't returned home for a long time, about to set foot on his homeland, and his heart was very excited, not to mention that there were still people waiting for him.
Xuan He whispered in Nanzhi's ear: "It's so good! Namggyi! We're finally going home together! ”
Nanzhi smiled lightly, turned to him and said, "You said you wanted to take me home, but now it seems that I am taking you home!" ”
"Uh-huh!" Xuan He nodded very obediently, "It's all the same, I'm very happy that you can take me home!" Someday, I'll take you home. ”
As soon as Nam Zhi heard it, he knew that his words meant something, and turned his head away to ignore him.
Suddenly, I heard the sound of horses' hooves behind me. Namzhi looked back and saw a large number of men approaching them, each with weapons, and looking at their dress, it didn't look like an army, but more like a bandit.
The crowd quickly gathered around them and circled around them. As soon as the uncle saw this posture, he knew that he had met his peers, and turned around and said to Nanzhi with a smile: "Oh, this is, I didn't expect to meet bandits here, I thought I would have been beaten a long time ago." ”
Nanzhi couldn't laugh, this large group of bandits saw that the people who came were not good, "Uncle, what now, do you have any good ideas?" ”
"What else can I do about this, only to fight, the bandits are unreasonable."
There are also seriously injured Xuan He here, and Nuo Min, who is weak in martial arts, if they fight, they can't take care of the two of them. It seems that the only way to send people away is to do so.
"Xuanhe, I'll ...... later"
Before Nan Zhi could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Xuan He, "Don't say anything like you coming to the back, either you take me and go first, or we will stay here together to kill the enemy." ”
Nan Zhi just wanted to refute, but Meng Zhong on the side said loudly: "Your Royal Highness Princess, please go first, if you can't go back, our trip will be in vain, not to mention, this group of bandits, I don't believe how powerful they can be?" Our people are not weak! ”
Nanzhi thought about it, there are still sixty miles to go to the border pass, and they are almost at the door of the house, how can they succeed.
"Nomin on the horse!" Namzhi shouted as he looked at Nomin who jumped out of the carriage.
Nomin jumped on the horse in the carriage, cut the leash, and beat the horse to Namggyi.
"Follow me later!"
Nomin looked at her and nodded.
Suddenly, the gang moved, and people from one side began to rush up, ready to attack.
Seventeen took the golden scale guards around Nanzhi, and when he saw them moving, he immediately stepped forward to fight them, and the bandits saw that they were really powerful, and they were not busy continuing to attack.
Nanzhi saw that they were still tempting, but he couldn't hold his breath.
"Seventeen, the horses that attacked them!"
Seventeen got the order, and led the Golden Scale Guard to attack, stabbing their horses, and it was very effective.
Uncle, they glanced at each other and nodded, and went to help the Golden Scales, and soon they were forced to make a hole in the circle.
Nanzhi took out the soft sword at his waist, "Follow me, Nomin!" As he spoke, he rushed over to that side.
When they saw that Nam Zhi wanted to break through, they quickly surrounded them, and Nam Zhi's wounded sword knocked them off their horses one by one, and then they were trampled half to death by the panicked hooves of the horses.
Nanzhi rushed out with people, and the gangsters wanted to chase them out, but they were entangled by the rest of the people and couldn't get out.
I could only watch Nanzhi's back disappear into the sky.
The bandits were also very difficult, their weapons were chains, and as soon as the men on both sides pulled them, their horses would immediately trip and they could not move, and they forced them to dismount in this way, and then surrounded the people in groups.
Seventeen They were at a disadvantage, and they didn't dare to attack easily, and the uncle was also very reluctant to parry. Even if they are strong in martial arts, it is really difficult to start in this encirclement, let alone sitting on horses.
Seventeen they aimed at the horses' hooves, but each time they were stopped by their chains, and several of them were accidentally wounded by them.
Seventeen flew up and cut off two heads, and the other guards cooperated to fight their way out of the encirclement, but their speed was always slower in front of the horse, and they were surrounded again as soon as they went farther.
These people are like dog skin plasters, they can't get rid of them, and if they continue like this, their physical strength will be exhausted sooner or later.
Seventeen looked at the flying chains, turned away, pulled the chains in his hands, and suddenly pulled the man off the horse.
The bandits seemed to have lost their patience, and the attacks became more and more violent, and Meng Zhong soon had few people left, and even he himself was slightly injured.
There are too many bandits, and if they continue, they will soon be caught.
Suddenly, there was a roar of horses in the distance, and Seventeen looked at it, and it was not Nanzhi who was walking in front, but General Song who was riding a tall horse beside him, and a large number of troops were followed behind him.
The man who was exploring the path before saw the army coming, saw the person walking in front clearly, and hurriedly said to his leader, "Boss, let's retreat first!" In front of him is General Song of the Southern Kingdom, very powerful! It's not good to go head-to-head with him! What's more, he brought so many people here! ”
The man naturally knew the name of General Song, stared at the man for a moment, and then waved his hand and retreated with the man.
Seeing the people retreating, Nanzhi quietly glanced at General Song, and sure enough, General Song was General Song, and this momentum scared people away without fighting.
Nanzhi retreated with people, and just happened to meet General Song's army who came to meet him, Nanzhi didn't expect General Song to send someone and come again in person.
But I have to admire General Song's foresight in my heart, if he hadn't come, it is estimated that today would be another hard battle.
