Chapter 3: The Man in Black

In this way, the murder of the princess was suppressed as if she had died in vain.

But everyone knows that this matter will never be settled like this, and one day the peace of the three kingdoms will be broken, and sooner or later the world will be unified.

A long time will be together, a long time will be divided, and now the world has been divided for a long time.

Among the Three Kingdoms, the state of Chu is located in the northeast of Great Qin, while the state of Wei is located in the northwest of Great Qin, and it is also in contact with the state of Chu, like three intersecting circles.

Luoyan Valley is at the junction of Great Qin and Chu, and the 500,000 soldiers and horses fought against each other at the beginning, but for the sake of peace, even enemies can only promote friendship between the two countries through marriage.

Luoyan Valley is far away from the Wei State, and even if the Wei State attacks Great Qin, it will never choose this side.

Now that the Wei State spies appeared in Luoyan Valley, it naturally made Chu Tian suspicious, because it was simply impossible.

And the only place that can make the Wei spies come here is Xiamachuan, and there is nothing else that can be noticed in this northeast border pass.

After the princess was killed, the princess's body was naturally transported to the capital, while the corpses of the ordinary guards of the dragon guards and the corpses of the royal guards were buried on the spot.

As for the bodies of the eight thousand households, they were buried in Xiamachuan and were not brought back to the capital.

"Wei State Spies, Wei State Spies, Wei State Spies"

On the way to Xiamachuan, Chu Tian kept muttering these words in his mouth, and he had some doubts in his heart.

He didn't know why the Wei State spies came here, and he didn't know why the general said that he was Wei State spies.

Because the people who come to inquire are generally disguised, there is no difference between Wei and Chu just by looking at the appearance, how can it be possible to tell which country it is?

And even if it is a spy, nine out of ten of the people who appear here are from the State of Chu, how could they think of the State of Wei?

Could it be that the general is hiding something from himself?

"Brother Tian, there are horseshoe prints in front." While Chu Tian was still thinking, Wang Hu beside him pointed to the road in front of him with his left hand and whispered to Chu Tian.

Hearing Wang Hu's words, Chu Tian pulled the reins and stopped, and looked in the direction Wang Hu pointed.

Sure enough, I saw that there were a lot of horseshoe prints on the ground in front of me, which was chaotic and disorderly, and it was estimated that there were as many as seven or eight horses.

This valley is mostly sandy land, and it is impossible to get rid of the horseshoe prints, so it is normal to stay.

Looking up at the direction of Xiamachuan, it was less than three miles away, Chutian estimated that his guess should be good, and those people really went to Xiamachuan.

"Abandon the horses, Qian Fang, Guo Ning, Zhao Yi, the three of you guard the horses, and the rest will go on foot with me, remember to be careful not to let the enemy find out." casually ordered the three of them, and Chu Tian also planned to walk, otherwise the sound of horses' hooves would startle the snake.

Although there are still three miles away from Xiamachuan, Chu Tian and the others are cautious, who knows if there will be an ambush on the road.

After everyone behind him dismounted, they immediately divided into three layers and stood behind Chu Tian.

A third of them had their spears in the sand, and had removed their bows and baskets from their horses, as well as their sabers at their waists, and had no intention of carrying spears.

The other two-thirds did not carry the bow and arrows, but only spears and sabers.

Those who did not carry bows and arrows were divided into two groups, which were located in the front and back, and those who held carved bows were sandwiched in the middle, and at this time the arrows were already in their hands.

As long as Chu Tian gave an order, they would shoot the arrows in their hands.

All this was completed in a blink of an eye, and they did not have the slightest communication with each other, which was a tacit understanding that had been tempered over the years.

Seeing that everyone was ready, Chu Tian waved his hand, and the group marched in the direction of Xiama River.

As for the three people who remained, they stood in three directions, forming horns with each other to protect the horses.

It's just that on a small dirt hill a hundred meters away from them, two black figures are lying in the chaos of rocks watching all this.

"You go and report to your lordship, and I'll deal with these three people."

One of them also said to the people around him after seeing Chu Tian and them leave.

The man nodded and bent over, while he slowly groped towards the three of them.

。。。。。。

After about half a cup of tea, Chu Tian and the others finally came to the entrance of Xiama River, but they did not rush in.

The Kouma River is a flat area with nothing to shelter from, and it is undoubtedly very dangerous to enter without knowing where the enemy is.

Fortunately, Chu Tian didn't find any checkpoints along the way, I don't know if he didn't find it, or the other party didn't arrange it at all.

Hiding behind a boulder at the entrance, Chu Tian looked inside, only to see a black shadow flickering in the distance, as if he was doing something, but he didn't find himself here.

Seeing this Chu Tian, he was also a little relieved, but fortunately they didn't find themselves, so they could be more relaxed now.

"Brother Tian, there are five people in total, let me take my brothers up to catch them." Seeing the target appear, Wang Hu couldn't help but be excited in his heart, and whispered to Chu Tian.

There are only five people on the other side, and they have more than 20 people, and Wang Hu is also very confident in their own strength.

As the general's personal guard, the soldiers inside are naturally one in a hundred, and they are all selected from the whole army, the elite soldiers among the elite soldiers.

"Brother Tian, no, there are seven horses, and two people are not there" As soon as Wang Hu finished speaking, the second dog's face changed, and his eyes kept shooting around.

"Two less, it's not good, Guanglin, you take the three of you to the Qian side to see if anything happens, and the rest of the people rush with me, be sure to capture them alive." Seeing that the number of people was wrong, Chu Tian secretly screamed that it was not good, quickly ordered, and rushed out directly after speaking.

There is no end to this place, there is no place to hide people, naturally it is impossible to be here, and it is only possible to be on guard around if it is not here.

And as the only way to enter the gorge Machuan, how could they miss it, they can only say that their side may have been discovered.

It's just that as soon as he moved, there was a sound of 'whooshing' arrows breaking through the air in his ears, and Chu Tian secretly said in his heart that it was not good.

The two brothers behind him were directly shot by arrows and lost their lives on the spot.

This sudden situation was beyond everyone's expectations, and Chu Tian's momentum of rushing out also stopped, looking in the direction where the arrow was fired.

I saw a dark shadow in the distance running towards the five people, and holding a bow in his hand was shooting arrows in this direction, and a long howl came out of his mouth to inform his partner.

"Scatter, Rush, Kill"

Spit out three words from his mouth, Chu Tian also rushed out again, and the rest of the people naturally followed, as for the meaning of Chu Tian's words, they couldn't understand it very well.

Due to the movement here, the five people over there also noticed it, but unexpectedly, in the face of a team several times their number, they did not retreat, but rushed over together.

Everyone was wearing black clothes and purple-edged tights, their faces were covered with black cloth, and they were holding a long sword in their hands, although there were only five of them, but their momentum was not weaker than Chu Tian and them.
