"Wait!"

A loud shout suddenly came from behind him: "Look, my lord! ”

On the other side of the drawbridge, the light of the torches suddenly lit up the night sky like moving stars. At the same time, I also saw the constantly moving heads.

The barking of dogs is like a wave, mixed with the sound of iron, which is clearly discerning.

"It's the Commander!"

There was a cheer among the guards. In the sky-high firelight, the meat bun opened the way, and Tang Ying rushed over with Jiang Ying on his back. Two people and one dog, like a god general.

"Your Excellency!" Everyone looked at Jun Qinglan.

"After Tang Ying crosses the bridge, cut the rope immediately."

"Yes!"

The guards couldn't help but straighten their chests and backs, and everyone's eyes were like stars in the dark night, and they couldn't hide their joy.

Jun Qinglan's face was slightly gloomy, and Jiang Ying always lay on Tang Ying's body, describing Weidun. Look at this, I'm afraid it's ...... Injured?

Tang Ying's weight was a little slower, and he was caught up by the mob soon after he stepped onto the suspension bridge. Behind him, the feathered arrows were like flying locusts, and the snowy arrows were wrapped in a cold and murderous aura, and they shot at the two people and a dog.

Tang Ying wanted to dial the feather arrow, and he also had to take care of Jiang Ying on his back. In addition, the space of the suspension bridge is narrow, and it is a little difficult to use it for a while. He gritted his teeth and put Jiang Ying on the bridge.

"Run, quick!"

"What about you?" Jiang Ying refused to leave, and her plain white fingers clenched Tang Ying's sleeves.

"I'll follow later, don't bother me."

Jiang Ying gritted her teeth and looked at the disgust in his eyes. He let go of his hand, climbed the rope on the drawbridge, and walked away with the meat bag.

As soon as Tang Ying turned around, he had already killed the enemy who rushed onto the suspension bridge. The green thunder and lightning frost flashed, and the blood gushed like a spring.

At this moment, no one cares whose blood it is. To be alive is their only belief.

Jiang Ying faltered, but did not stop. Behind him, another round of feathered arrows flew. This time, the arrow ignited a fire and landed on the drawbridge, immediately bursting into blinding flames.

In the rear, Tang Ying's battle became more and more intense, and no one wanted to pass in front of him alive.

The suspension bridge shook violently, and Jiang Ying climbed the rope, trying to stabilize her figure. But she is just a noble girl raised in the boudoir, she has never practiced martial arts, and she has never even been far away before. At the moment, I feel that it is difficult to move forward.

She was so focused on fighting the tumbling drawbridge that she was caught up in by a dark arrow coming from behind. With Jiang Ying's ability, where can she dodge in a hurry?

I felt a sharp pain, and the skin and flesh broke all the way from the shoulder blade to the back of the heart. The intense pain made Jiang Ying lose her direction and fell softly towards the bridge deck.

"Jiang Ying!" Jun Qinglan frowned fiercely, rushed onto the suspension bridge, and ran towards Jiang Ying.

At the same moment, a black shadow ran like lightning towards the other side of the drawbridge.

"Meat buns...... Meat buns! Half of Jiang Ying's body seemed to be soaked in blood, and she raised her hand to stop the meat bun, but where did it come from? The sound is like a mosquito and a fly, and it is blown away by the wind as soon as it exits.

Jun Qinglan arrived at this moment, helped Jiang Ying up by the waist, and hung her arms around her neck. Jiang Ying refused to leave: "Meat bun!" Meat buns! ”

"You go, give me the meat bun!"

Tang Ying roared, stepped on the ground full of blood and dead corpses, and rushed towards the other side of the bridge.

Where did Jun Qinglan allow Jiang Ying to be temperamental, and with a force, she dragged her across the bridge.

On that side, a man and a dog rushed into the enemy camp again. The goal of the meat bun is obvious, and when you see the person who releases the arrow, you will bite wildly. It was huge and fast, and it disrupted the enemy's position in an instant.

However, a dog is a dog after all. No matter how brave and invincible he is, he can't match the cunning of people. The chaos lasted only a moment, and the next moment the meat bag was heavily surrounded, the archers retreated, and the spearmen stepped forward.

The barking of dogs was drowned in the sound of the wind stirring by iron tools.

"Meat buns!" Jiang Ying exclaimed in surprise and completely fainted.

Jun Qinglan dragged her body, and felt the sticky coldness of her hand, and she could see a clear red in the night.

Tang Ying descended from the sky like a divine soldier, wielding the soft sword in his hand to stir up the bloody wind again. Killing gods is like changing the color of the wind and clouds. He didn't love fighting, he just grabbed the meat bun and rushed onto the drawbridge reflexively.

Maybe this man and a dog were too brave, or maybe the mob felt that the general trend had gone, this time, no one dared to catch up with the drawbridge again, and could only see the feather arrows pouring down like a torrential rain.

"Commander, quick!"

Tang Ying ran with all his might, and the dark guard began to slash at the sling.

The moment Tang Ying stepped on the ground, the suspension bridge roared and fell into the surging waves.

Tang Ying was holding the meat bun in his arms, and Jun Qinglan glanced at it quickly. The tail of the meat bag had hung down, and the blood was like a tiny snake, flowing down the tip of its tail into the dark brown dirt.

Jun Qinglan took a deep breath: "How are you?" ”

Tang Ying shook his head: "It's okay." ”

"Let's go, retreat into the secret passage."

Whether it's healing or asking, this is not the best time. Drinking water and medicinal herbs are all in the secret passage, and Liu Buyen is also in the secret passage. All you need to do is enter the secret passage to get a moment of respite.

The secret passage carries the hope of all.

However......

This hope was ruthlessly defeated in the face of the facts.

The secret passage has been sealed!

The secret passage of the west courtyard is hidden under a pillar in the flower hall. The pillar went five steps to the west, then turned south and walked three steps to the entrance to the secret passage. However, at this moment, the entrance was tightly closed, and it could no longer be opened.

There was silence, no one spoke. Naturally, everyone would not suspect that Jun Qinglan had remembered the wrong place, so the situation in front of them suddenly made people understand something, but they were afraid that everyone under the secret passage had encountered some unexpected changes, would they ...... At risk?

"Find a safe place to take shelter nearby." Jun Qinglan pursed her lips: "As long as we can hide for three days, we will be safe." ”

Even if the king of Southern Xinjiang no longer likes Northern Xia, even if the Southern Xinjiang army is slow to react. Give them three days, and it's time to deal with it. If you don't come forward to stop this riot, I'm afraid that southern Xinjiang will really be in chaos.

This is also the strategy that Jun Qinglan agreed with Liu Buren at the beginning, and they will dig the tunnel again in three days. With the secret guard of Duanwang's Mansion, there is nothing that cannot be done.

"But, the people below ......."

The Dark Guards frowned.

When she went to pick up Tang Ying and Jiang Ying, Jun Qinglan only brought three people, plus two people who were sent to cut the rope early in the morning. There were only five people around her, and the rest of the secret guards retreated into the tunnel with Dingguo Gong and Liu Buren.

Now I don't know what the situation is below, but no one doesn't know, and the situation below is not at all more optimistic than the above. That's it...... Whatever?

Jun Qinglan gritted her teeth: "The broken dragon stone at the mouth of the secret passage was put down in advance, it may be that there is an internal response of the enemy among our people." The Broken Dragon Stone is unusually strong, and a few of us don't even want to dig it out from the outside and re-enter. Now they are on their own. Let alone....... ”

Jun Qinglan's eyes condensed slightly: "The secret passage has prepared water and medicine in advance, and there are a large number of secret guards and Uncle Liu, so it shouldn't be easy to get it when you come there." Compared with them, our situation is not optimistic. ”

Among their group, Jiang Ying and Tang Ying were both injured. Tang Ying is okay, he has long been trained in the crisis in the past, and his skin is thick and thick, so it will be good to raise it for a few days. Jiang Ying ......

She grew up pampered, and the arrow wound on her back was very serious, almost breaking her heart. Whether you can survive or not depends on luck.

"My lord, where are we going?"

"Just find a hidden place in the West Cross Courtyard and stay first."

Jun Qinglan paused slightly, and her clear eyes swept over Tang Ying and Jiang Ying one by one: "Tang Ying and Eighth Miss need to heal, only Uncle Liu has medicinal herbs hidden in this courtyard." In addition, those people outside know that we have always been in and out of this courtyard before, and the secret passage has been sealed from the inside. I can't imagine for a moment that we'll come back here. ”

The most dangerous places are the safest. Everyone understands this truth, but there may not really be anyone who puts themselves in danger in exchange for the unknown so-called safety. This hand is actually taking a risk, risking half of your life in exchange for a moment of respite.

But......

Jun Qinglan glanced at the few people around him, half of the injured. Does she have any other options?

"From today onwards, we must deploy manpower in a unified manner, and we must not act without authorization."

Jun Qinglan frowned slightly, and looked at the five secret guards beside him: "The five of you will discuss the rotation by yourself." Every two hours, it is important to ensure that one person is on high enough to keep an eye on the situation around the yard. The people on duty in the next round only rest and do nothing else. If you find a problem, you need to immediately fill the ward, understand? ”

The Dark Guards bowed and replied yes.

"What about me?"

Tang Ying looked at Jun Qinglan: "I am their commander, and I have to bear the brunt of the things on duty." ”

Jun Qinglan didn't reply immediately, her eyes slid over Tang Ying's body. He had long lost his former calm bearing, Zhou's body was embarrassed, his clothes had long been soaked with blood, and now a dark brown lump had condensed on his clothes, and he didn't know whether it was his own blood or the blood of the enemy.

From the moment they met, he touched the ground on one knee and never got up. I'm afraid that if I saved Jiang Ying all the way, I would have already exhausted my strength.

"You have to rest first, heal before you know."

Tang Ying frowned: "I ......." ”

"It's an order!" Jun Qinglan didn't allow him to distinguish: "Before Lord Duan leaves, I will leave you in the palace and I will deploy you." Well, what I'm saying is a military order! ”

Tang Ying opened his mouth, but closed it in the end. Military orders cannot be violated, he can only obey them. But judging from the look in his eyes, Jun Qinglan knew that he was actually unwilling to accept it at all.

Whether he accepts it or not, he must rest. If he is still allowed to charge into battle at this moment, I am afraid that this life will end in southern Xinjiang.

"Alright, let's do it." Jun Qinglan waved his hand at the secret guards: "I am responsible for preparing the three meals in the courtyard, you don't have to worry about this matter." ”

As the night drew to a close, a red sun broke free from the clouds and mist. The world and the earth are shrouded in an extreme light.

The thick clouds in the sky were dispelled by the red sun in an instant, and only one was as blue as a wash, blue and high.

"It's a good day." Jun Qinglan slowly withdrew her gaze with her hand on the pergola, and leaned down to look at Tang Ying: "You can tell me now, what's going on?" ”
