The name of Shili Forest is not appropriate, from the morning to now, they should have walked for thirty miles, but there are still towering trees around, if it were not for the people who came from Fengzhou to guide the way, it is really possible to get lost in the forest.

Before the sky darkened, Lu Teng found a vacant place to set up camp, the mountains are not as good as the outside, the light is insufficient, and the night is even more dangerous, so it is better to be careful.

The princess's tent was naturally in the middle of the procession, followed by the accompanying envoys, around the horde.

The three wedding envoys all have independent tents, next to the princess's tent, but Lu Teng is on duty at night and does not sleep, and in general, outside the princess's tent, only two tents are more gorgeous.

He Rui came out of the tent and was startled when he saw Tang Ning standing at the door, and immediately took a few steps back and asked, "Lord Tang is not in the tent, what are you doing here?" ”

Tang Ning looked at him and said, "My tent is broken, I wonder if I can squeeze in with Lord He for one night?" ”

When He Rui heard this, he shook his head almost without thinking: "Lord Tang doesn't know, this official has the disease of night travel when he sleeps, and he is worried that he will hurt Lord Tang at night, so he should ask Lord Tang to find another place." ”

Tang Ning said firmly: "Then I have to look at Lord He even more, what if Lord He does something to hurt himself?" ”

"No, no, no......" He Rui waved his hand again and again, and said: "If this official sleeps alone, sleepwalking will not be committed." ”

He Rui's heart has already been vigilant, the two of them can't look at each other on weekdays, how can this Tang Ning suddenly care about himself, if he agrees, I'm afraid that he will be poisoned or have diarrhea tomorrow, so he can only go back to Fengzhou.

The four colleagues along the way are a lesson from the past, how could he dig his own grave?

Tang Ning shook his head and said regretfully: "Since Lord He is unwilling, then forget it, I will find a tent to squeeze into." ”

Seeing Tang Ning turn around and leave, He Ruicai relieved his heart, and at the same time warned himself in his heart that Tang Ning was a very strange person, and he had to be at least five steps away from him to be safe.

Camping in the mountains and forests is no better than a post station, and there are some unknown insects in my ears, and farther away, from time to time there are the howls of wild beasts.

Somewhere in the tent, Zhao Man grabbed his arm and asked nervously, "What is that sound?" ”

Tang Ning listened attentively and said, "Maybe it's a wolf." ”

Zhao Man grabbed his arm and used a little more strength, and said, "I'm afraid." ”

Tang Ning patted her hand and said, "Don't worry, I'm just outside." ”

Seeing her fall asleep, Tang Ning walked out of the tent, Lao Zheng sat by the fire to barbecue meat, and when he saw him walking over, he peeled a piece of meat from the leg of mutton.

Tang Ning took it with a dagger, tasted it, and exclaimed, "It tastes good." ”

In addition to Lao Zheng's excellent knife skills, barbecue is also a must, and Tang Ning has already learned along the way.

Butcher Zheng took a big bite on a piece of mutton and said, "Tonight is not very peaceful. ”

"It's just one night." Tang Ning peeled a piece of mutton himself, looked at him, and said, "If there is anything, protect the princess." ”

Lao Zheng nodded and said, "Be careful yourself." ”

It was already past the hour, and there was silence in the tent, except for the occasional patrol guard, their armor clanging.

There was still the howl of a beast in the distance, I don't know if it was Tang Ning's delusion, he only felt that this sound was a little infiltrating, and since just now, it has been getting closer and closer.

Butcher Zheng put the leg of mutton aside and said, "The wolf barks abnormally. ”

Lu Teng also seemed to have noticed something unusual, strode over from the front, stopped a team of patrolling guards, and said, "You guys go to the front and have a look." ”

"Yes!"

After receiving the order, a group of more than ten guards left the camp and walked towards the dense forest ahead.

Lu Teng looked at the depths of the dense forest and said, "I'm afraid it won't be peaceful tonight, Lord Tang himself should be careful and don't leave the camp." ”

Tang Ning nodded, although he was confident in self-preservation, he still had to be careful.

After the group of guards left, one of them soon turned back and said in a panic: "Commander, I don't know who it is, he skinned a few wolf cubs and buried them not far from our tent!" ”

"Oh no, it's going to attract wolves!" Lu Teng's face changed slightly, and he said, "You lead fifty people, bring bows and crossbows, and don't let them get close to the tent within ten zhang." ”

Tang Ning looked at the darkness and said, "The one who came is not good. ”

"Being able to use such clumsy means shows that their strength is not as good as ours." Lu Teng said, looked at Tang Ning and said, "However, just in case, Lord Tang should go into the camp first." ”

When Tang Ning walked into the tent, he glanced ahead, and saw a lot of flickering fluorescent lights and a low roar in the dense forest.

Although the number of wolves is not visible, there are only a few wolves in general, and there are only a dozen of them, and when they are gathered, it is difficult to pose a threat to the heavily armed guards, and it is the enemy who hides in the shadows to be careful.

One person held a torch, ran forward quickly, looked at Lu Teng and said, "Commander, there are about thirty wolves, and the number is still increasing!" ”

Lu Teng said in a deep voice: "You bring another fifty people over." ”

Although the number of wolves is small, the environment of the night does not have much effect on them, and in addition, they are agile, even if they have torches, they still cause a lot of trouble for the guards.

Tang Ning comforted Zhao Man in the tent, and at a certain moment, there was a sudden sound of shouting and killing in his ears.

He stepped out of the tent and saw the fire rushing behind him, and the sound of heavy footsteps approaching.

"Enemy attack!"

"Protect the princess!"

"Others, meet me against the enemy!"

……

The Praetorian guards had already reacted, and two hundred men surrounded the large tent in the center, while the rest rushed in the direction of the fire and shouts.

Flames flew from the forest suddenly, and when they landed, billowing smoke came out, and most of the guards immediately coughed violently when they smelled it, and then fell to the ground.

At the same time, more than a dozen black shadows rushed out of the forest, and several of them headed straight for the big tent.

The others rushed to a gorgeous tent next to it.

In the position filled with thick smoke, all the guards fell to the ground, and more than ten people quickly broke into the big tent as if they were in a no-man's land, and one of the leaders said in a deep voice: "Take away Princess Chen Guo, don't fall in love!" ”

From the appearance of the enemy in the rear, to the fact that the guards in front of the camp fell to the ground, and were rushed into the camp, it was only a moment.

Inside the tent, one person looked at the empty tent, under the black cloth, his face changed greatly, and he said loudly: "It's not good, it's a plan, retreat!" ”

When they withdrew from the tent, they were greeted by rows of archers.

Tang Ning walked out of an ordinary camp not far away, and among the dozen or so people surrounded by archers, someone shouted angrily: "Cunning Han people! ”

At the same time, a frightened voice came from another camp.

"Who are you, who let you in!"

"Hurry up and get out, if you don't go out again, I'll call someone!"

"Help, help!"

……

He Rui was put on the head with a knife, and came out of the tent, and the knife was held by a person wrapped in a black robe, and under the black veil, a young woman's voice was heard.

"Lay down your arms, or I'll kill him!"

He Rui looked at Tang Ning, his voice was full of fear, and said loudly: "Lord Tang, save me, save me!" ”

Tang Ning stepped forward, and behind He Rui, the woman's eyes widened, and her expression was extremely incredulous.

After a brief moment of surprise, she clenched her knife and shouted, "Let them lay down their weapons!" ”

He Rui's voice was already a little hoarse, and he hissed: "Lord Tang, save me!" ”

"Do you think it's useful to kill Lord He?" Tang Ning looked at the woman behind He Rui and said, "Killing a Lord He, and thousands of Lord He, Lord He is high-spirited, do you think he will be threatened by you?" ”

He took a step forward, and the woman took a step back.

He Rui stood in place, as if struck by lightning, and after a while, he hissed and roared: "You are a personal vendetta of the communiqué, a personal vendetta of the communiqué, Commander Lu, I want to see Commander Lu!" ”

"Don't worry, Lord He, if you die, I will definitely avenge you." Tang Ning looked at He Rui and said, "If you die in the line of duty, the imperial court will definitely treat your family members well......
