Chapter 20: In Crisis
The man in black looked at the driver and gestured to the driver with his eyes, but the driver was so frightened that he didn't want to abandon the car and flee.
The carriage stopped suddenly, Zhao Mingsheng subconsciously held his breath and used his ears to distinguish it, for some reason, Zhao Mingsheng could realize that there were people outside the carriage, and there was more than one person.
The uneasiness in his heart gradually sprouted, looking at Yunyan sleeping calmly on the side, not knowing the tension at this time, Zhao Mingsheng sighed in his heart.
It seems that the quest after the crossing is coming to an end, and I don't know who the people around him are, and what his true identity is.
Zhao Mingsheng is looking forward to a story of imperial power and wealth waiting for him, but now he needs to know most whether the people outside the carriage are friends or enemies.
Zhao Mingsheng threw Yunyan in the car and hid the hairpin in Yunyan's hair in his sleeve.
He lifted the curtain, only to see a sword against his neck, a trace of coldness penetrating into his heart.
"Y-Who are you?" Zhao Mingsheng's trembling body made him look as timid as a mouse, only in this way could he make this group of people relax their vigilance against him.
"The one who came to take your life." The black-clothed man with the sword didn't mean anything polite, so he wanted to make a move on Zhao Mingsheng.
Zhao Mingsheng's eyes were quick, and while the man in black was not looking, he pierced the hairpin hidden in his sleeve into the horse's buttocks, and the horse suddenly wailed and neighed and rushed forward.
Several men in black didn't expect such a change, and they all looked at the man in black who was the leader, and the man in black looked at the galloping carriage and ordered: "Chase me!" Leave no mouth alive! ”
"Yes!"
Late at night, in the forest, the galloping carriage had no intention of stopping, Zhao Mingsheng drove with peace of mind, and the footsteps from behind the car made him upset.
The shaking of the carriage made the sleeping Yunyan in the carriage frown, she couldn't reach Zhao Mingsheng, opened her eyes slightly, and saw that she was the only one left in the carriage, and couldn't help muttering: "Zhao Mingsheng!" You're a man! ”
Hearing the sound, Zhao Mingsheng guessed that Yunyan was awake, and he was busy lying: "The groom has gone back beforehand, I'm driving, you can continue to sleep." ”
"Oh." Yun Yantou was dizzy, not aware of the danger coming, just muttered a sentence and fell asleep.
Realizing that Yunyan fell asleep again, Zhao Mingsheng's heart was at ease, he didn't want Yunyan to realize that danger was coming, but it would make him restrain his hands.
The man in black forced Zhao Mingsheng and Yunyan to the cliff, Zhao Mingsheng had no choice but to stop the carriage, he got down from the carriage and dealt with these men in black with one person.
The man in black saw Zhao Mingsheng stop the carriage and appear alone, and he didn't mean to embarrass the woman in the carriage, so the man in black looked fierce.
"Why don't you run away! Aren't you smart! ”
"I don't have martial arts, even if I run, it's useless. But I'm curious why you're so persistent. ”
Zhao Mingsheng pretended to be calm, he didn't move if the enemy didn't move, although he knew that he might be buried here today, but he wasn't afraid, maybe he could travel back if he died, which was also a good way for him.
It's just that the thought of a cloud of smoke in the carriage made Zhao Mingsheng's heart a little shaken.
The man in black came to Zhao Mingsheng with a mocking face: "Zhao Mingsheng, weren't you very majestic before?" As a dog of the noble concubine, you have offended many dignitaries. How? Now that he is poor and has become a scholar, he really pretends that nothing has happened! ”
Listening to the words of the man in black, Zhao Mingsheng probably understood that the owner of his body should have been a heinous villain, and this time it was the enemy who came to seek revenge.
"Wait a minute! I said this eldest brother, as the saying goes, there is a debtor, since I used to be a concubine Niangniang's person, then you should find a concubine Niangniang. ”
"Heh, if we can move the concubine Niangniang, how can we come to you!"
"Big brother, don't talk nonsense with him, hurry up!"
The man in black on the side was worried that things would change, and the person in charge also realized that he couldn't drag it out any longer, so he came to Zhao Mingsheng step by step, and Zhao Mingsheng posed a handsome pose.
"Come on, it just so happens that Uncle Ben hasn't loosened my muscles and bones for a long time, and your small dishes are really not worth mentioning in front of me!"
Zhao Mingsheng originally planned to scare these people in this way, but he didn't expect the person in the lead to be stunned, and his face was suspicious: "You, your martial arts have not been abolished!" ”
Do I still have martial arts? How did I not know about this?
Temporarily putting aside the slander in his heart, Zhao Ming pretended to be decent: "Yes, you think my martial arts have been abolished!" This benevolent brother, if you are a sensible person, I advise you to leave quickly, otherwise the sword will have no eyes, and it will not be good to hurt anyone. ”
Since he wants to act, Zhao Mingsheng wants to act more realistically, the man in black was obviously bluffed, and the man in black behind him reminded him: "Big brother, don't be deceived by this kid, if his martial arts were not abolished, he would have killed us a long time ago with his temperament." ”
Hearing this, the leader immediately reacted, and he grabbed Zhao Mingsheng's neck, and Zhao Mingsheng couldn't move.
"Heh, Zhao Mingsheng, I thought you really had two hits, but I didn't expect you to be a paper tiger! It seems that this time God can't keep you, so don't blame us! ”
Under the moonlight, the sword shadow flew fast, Zhao Mingsheng subconsciously closed his eyes, he had already begun to wait to travel home.
When the sword was less than a few centimeters away from Zhao Mingsheng, it suddenly stopped, realizing that the sword had not fallen on his neck for a long time, Zhao Mingsheng subconsciously opened his eyes, only to see a woman appear in front of him, looking at the black-clothed people with fierce eyes.
The man in black at the head was obviously stunned when he saw the woman, and then said respectfully: "Miss Hui, why did you come to this poor mountain and remote place when you didn't serve by your mother's side so late?" ”
"Heh, you are dealing with the three princes behind your master's back, and you also sent someone to assassinate Zhao Mingsheng, do you really think that the master doesn't know anything?"
The woman said and slowly came to the head of the man, and said word by word: "The master said that none of the people who betrayed her will end well!" ”
After that, the woman turned around, and a few silver needles flew out of her sleeves at some point, and they were neatly inserted into the throats of the black-clothed people, killing them with needles.
"You!"
"Are you going to do it for me, or are you going to kill yourself?"
The woman's voice was not loud, but it was extremely deadly, and the man in black looked at Zhao Mingsheng unwillingly, and then wiped his neck.
"Woman, good skills!"
The woman turned to look at Zhao Mingsheng, smiled, and just when Zhao Mingsheng didn't react, a sharp sword once again pressed against Zhao Mingsheng's neck.
