At about dusk, the sunset was ethereal, outside the camp gate of the barracks, Yuan Xi was about to set off to rush back to Yecheng, looking at Yuan Ping and Jiao Touch, who were standing in front of him, and said with a serious expression: "I will go back this time, it is estimated that I may not be able to come in a short time, you must manage the Iron Guard Battalion, remember to report every three days, I want to know how the progress is at any time?" ”

"Yes, Childe"

"Yes, big brother"

The two hurriedly responded, Yuan Xi nodded, and then turned his head to look at Zhang Nan, who had already talked to Yuan Ping, with a trace of excitement and anticipation on his face.

"Sima Zhang, you must assist Zhongsheng well, if something goes wrong, I will trouble you" Yuan Xi said with a smile.

"Childe, don't worry" Zhang Nan hurriedly replied, he is not a stupid person, if he is arrogant and ignores the right thing because of Yuan Xi's appreciation, he will inevitably be expelled immediately, or even directly killed, not only can he not relax, but he must work harder, so that Yuan Xi will really entrust him with important tasks.

Looking at Zhang Nan, whose loyalty value had been increased to 79, Yuan Xi smiled with satisfaction and turned around to get into the carriage when he came.

"Congratulations to the second brother"

"Congratulations to Childe"

Everyone immediately said goodbye, Hu Niu'er rode a tall horse on the side with excitement on his face, only to see that when the guards who followed him came, there were obviously more than a dozen, and all of them were tigers and bears, very strong, these are the soldiers he selected from the Iron Guard Battalion today, all of them are among the best elites, but the face of the six military marquis is distressed.

"Let's go" After Hu Niu'er shouted, the carriage immediately started, slowly left the barracks, and headed back towards Yecheng.

And at this moment, on a small hill not far from the barracks, two men dressed in black and covering their faces were carefully lying on it, and after seeing Yuan Xi leaving, one of them immediately ordered: "Inform the second son, the second son has left the barracks, let them be ready at any time"

"Yes!!"

After Yuan Xi's carriage traveled for about half a pillar of incense, the sky gradually darkened, the vision was dim, the soldiers hurriedly lit torches to illuminate the road in front of them, Hu Niu'er rode a big horse, holding two huge hammers, and after looking at the lush grass on both sides of the road, a sense of unease suddenly appeared in his heart, and he couldn't help but quietly approach the carriage.

"Whoa!!"

Suddenly, a sound of breaking the air suddenly sounded, and I saw a long arrow with a little cold light shooting rapidly from afar, shooting accurately on the door of the carriage, and then a dazzling fire rushed into the sky, and a huge shouting of killing came from the surface.

"Kill!!"

I saw that a large number of black-clothed people suddenly rushed out of the grass next to them, and the number was no less than a hundred, and they all rushed towards the position of the carriage fiercely with sharp blades in their hands, and it was obvious that they had been ambushed here for a long time.

Hu Niu'er's eyes froze, and sure enough, there was an ambush, and his whole body was suddenly murderous, looking at the somewhat chaotic and nervous guards, he hurriedly shouted: "Protect the carriage, protect the son"

The sound like a tiger's roar suddenly calmed down the guards, and they hurriedly gathered around the side of the carriage, among which more than a dozen soldiers who had just been selected from the Iron Guard Battalion immediately stood at the front, looking at the oncoming man in black, and immediately roared to meet the battle, and the sound of fierce fighting sounded in an instant, only to see the sword light and sword shadow, the chill was cold, and after a while, the flesh and blood were flying all around, the corpse fell to the ground, and the guards blocked the man in black, but the martial arts of the man in black were not weak, and the shot was even more ruthless. The guards gradually became a little unstoppable, and kept retreating.

After Hu Niu'er glanced at it, he jumped down from the carriage violently, his legs fell heavily on the ground, the huge power with a burst of smoke and dust, looking at the black-clothed man who was waving a long knife, the two black hammers in his hand immediately swung over, like a black dragon was born, between a burst of dancing, before he could see the situation clearly, seven or eight black-clothed people had been immediately beaten out, spitting blood, falling to the ground like goods, trembling a few times, and then motionless.

Seeing this scene, the guards on guard suddenly became more aggressive, and one by one they became more fierce and abnormal.

"Kill!!"

Hu Niu'er roared, how amazing his strength is, although these black-clothed people are masters for ordinary people, but in front of him is simply vulnerable, like a tiger into a flock, unstoppable, the black hammer is injured when it rubs, and it will die next to it, and after a short time of fighting, more than a dozen black-clothed people have died tragically in his hands, looking at Hu Niu'er, who was covered in blood, with a fierce light, and a momentum like a ghost, the black-clothed people suddenly panicked, and the two blood-stained black hammers were so terrifying in their eyes.

"Withdraw!" Suddenly, a shout sounded in the grass in the distance, and the man in black immediately retreated in a hurry, like a frightened bird.

"Where to go," Hu Niu'er suddenly shouted.

"Cow!" At this time, a shout suddenly sounded, and I saw that Yuan Xi had already walked out of the carriage slowly, looking at the corpses everywhere, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes.

After Hu Niu'er heard this, he hurriedly stopped, wiped the blood on his face, and quickly rushed to Yuan Xi, and said with concern: "Childe, are you okay?"

"Haha, there are cows here, who can hurt me" Yuan Xi smiled slightly, stepped down from the carriage, and several guards hurriedly gathered around him, paying attention to the surroundings with serious expressions.

"Don't be nervous, they're not here to kill me" Yuan Xi said lightly, if these people were really determined to intercept him, they would never leave so easily, slowly walked to the side of a black-clothed corpse, gently pulled the veil on the face, and found that it was a strange face, and he didn't know it at all.

"Childe, who is going to harm you" Hu Niu'er on the side was puzzled.

Yuan Xi shook his head, "I don't know, you go check to see if there is any alive"

"Yes!"

I saw that not long after, Hu Niu'er was holding a leg with blood on his hand, and he had already taken off his mask, his face was pale, and the man in black with an ordinary appearance ran over and said loudly: "Childe, this guy is hiding in the grass and was caught by me,"

After Yuan Xi glanced at it, he asked lightly, "Who sent you?"

"I don't know," the man in black roared, with a stubborn and unyielding expression on his face.

A cold light flashed in Yuan Xi's eyes, and he casually pulled a long knife and slashed off his entire left arm, and suddenly a painful wail sounded.

Hu Niu'er on the side was suddenly startled, looked at Yuan Xi, who had a cold look in his eyes, and swallowed his saliva with some nervousness in his heart.

"I don't have much patience, the last time, who sent you" Yuan Xi continued to ask indifferently, and he didn't know why, not only was he not afraid when he saw the blood and corpses all over the ground, but the whole person was very excited, and there was a trace of fiery feeling in the place of the blood dragon pattern on his chest.

The man in black covered his bloodied severed arm, and said with a frightened expression: "Yes, yes, Yuan Shanggongzi sent us."

"What, Yuan Shang, he is so vicious" Hearing this, Hu Niu'er immediately gritted his teeth and said.

"Nonsense, the third brother has a deep affection for me, why did he kill me, it seems that one arm is not enough" Yuan Xi's face became more and more cold.

"I'm not lying, the third prince has long taken a fancy to Mrs. Zhen, and he covets it in his heart, and wants to take it for himself, so he sent us to intercept and kill the son" The man in black quickly explained.

"Damn! Childe, Yuan Shang did not think of brotherhood and insulted his wife, and the last general suggested that he should return to the military camp immediately, gather all the iron guards, and fight with them in the Tiger Roar Battalion" Hu Niu'er said angrily.

Yuan Xi looked at the man in black with fear on his face, and suddenly with a wave of his long sword, a cavity of blood immediately sprayed on the ground, and suddenly the man in black fell to the ground heavily, a long blood mark appeared on his throat, and there was a trace of unwillingness and relief in his eyes.

"Childe, what are you doing here, he's a witness!" Hu Niu'er suddenly said anxiously.

"Niu'er, there are some things that can't just be seen on the surface, and you can't listen to one person's words, whether it's the third brother's person or not, you have to say something else, but this matter should have never happened" Yuan Xi commanded, casually throwing the blood-stained long knife aside,

"Why" Hu Niu'er looked unwilling.

"You don't have to worry about this, remember to keep it secret, how about our damage?" Yuan Xi asked solemnly.

Hearing this, Hu Niu'er's face suddenly looked a little ugly, "Three died, five were seriously injured, and the damage was not small."

"Put them all in my carriage, since you are with me, it is necessary for me to bring them all back," Yuan Xi commanded.

"What about you, Childe?" Hu Niuer asked.

"I'll just ride a horse," Yuan Xi said.

"Yes!" Hu Niu'er hurriedly organized people to carry the corpses of the soldiers of the guard battalion one by one onto the carriage.

After the matter was dealt with, Yuan Xi stepped on a war horse, pulled the horse rope, looked at the corpses everywhere, and sneered, "Is this to force me to stand?" Let's see who's tougher."

After Yuan Xi finished speaking, after waving the horsewhip vigorously, the war horse immediately rushed out and hurried back towards Yecheng, and Hu Niu'er and the remaining soldiers hurriedly followed.
