In this place where there is no village and no store, no one thought that there would be assassination.

The assassins hid in the shadows, and the rain of arrows in the sky was like locusts flying in front of them, making it difficult to resist for a while.

Gu Jinli pulled Ah Qiao to climb out of the tent, and subconsciously rolled on the spot, dodging left and right to dodge arrows towards him.

Qi Hao tapped his toes and landed in front of Gu Jinli, while quickly flipping the cold sword in his hand, protecting Gu Jinli, and said to her: "Ah Gu, quickly find a place to hide!" ”

His voice was urgent and full of undisguised concern, Gu Jinli didn't have time to think about it, looked around, and found a half-human-high stone, planning to drag Ah Qiao to hide behind the stone.

However, as soon as she left Qi Hao's shelter, a man in black flew down from a branch on the side.

The man in black brandished a big knife and went straight to Gu Jinli's façade.

"Master, be careful!" Ah Qiao's eyes were quick, and he pushed Gu Jinli away with all his might, but his shoulder was cut by the knife with a deep blood mark.

Qi Hao's eyes were cold, and he raised his foot and kicked the black man who was wrapped around him in the lower abdomen.

Between the lightning and flint, the black-clothed man chasing Gu Jinli actually bypassed Ah Qiao, and purposefully raised it to stab at her.

Because the situation was dangerous, Qi Hao directly threw the sword in his hand towards the back of the man in black.

Immediately afterwards, he lifted the internal force of his whole body and flew towards Gu Jinli's side again.

"Whew!" The man in black was hit by a sword in his back and fell down.

Seeing that there were four or five black-clothed people in front of him, Qi Hao pulled Gu Jinli behind him with one hand, and said coldly: "Ah Gu, follow me." ”

Du Jiang plus the casual guards this time, there were less than sixty people in total, but there were about a hundred black-clothed people around.

Moreover, the Assassins were well-trained and deadly, making them top-notch professional Assassins at first glance.

Their goal is very clear, that is, Qi Hao and Gu Jinli.

Therefore, a small number of Assassins dragged Du Jiang and the guards down, and most of them aimed their fire at Qi Hao.

Although Gu Jinli has the kung fu of a three-legged cat, the other party is overwhelming, and the murderous spirit is so fierce that Gu Jinli and A Qiao are not as powerful as the other party's one leg combined.

The two of them, master and servant, could only hide behind Qi Hao.

Pulling out the sword on the back of the man in black, Qi Hao was one to ten, which was very difficult.

Of course, Gu Jinli and Ah Qiao couldn't sit still, although they were powerless to resist, they were also highly nervous and cooperated with Qi Hao, and the three of them were back to back, forming a tight triangle.

It's just that the two women are like hitting a stone with an egg, and they can't resist much at all.

After a while, Ah Qiao was kicked away, so the gap was broken, and Gu Jinli and Qi Hao were surrounded again.

"Whoosh", then he remembered that there were still a lot of poisonous needles in his sleeve, Gu Jinli rolled on the ground to dodge the falling sword, and at the same time flicked his sleeve and shot the poison at the assassin's body.

With her other hand, she tore off the sachet at her waist and threw it into the air.

The man in black covered his nose and flashed back with agility.

Gu Jinli took the opportunity to stand up, carrying the hem of her clothes and running towards the depths of the forest.

"Chase!" One of the black-clothed men saw Gu Jinli running away, waved his big hand, and led someone to chase after him on horseback.

At the same time, Qi Hao was deeply encircled, taking care of himself, but he was worried about Gu Jinli, so his moves became more and more anxious.

The more anxious he is, the easier it is for Qi Hao to leave flaws for the other party.

If it was usual, he could support it for a while, but his heart was so troubled that he couldn't wait to put on his wings and fly to Gu Jinli's side, so he was stabbed a few times on his arm, and the bloody wound was deep enough to see the bones, and he didn't have time to care about it, so he didn't find that the blood that came out was actually black.

As Qi Hao continued to exert his luck, the toxins in his body gradually attacked.

His face was bruised, his limbs were also weak and weak, he gritted his teeth and insisted, he screamed, his eyes glared angrily, and the green tendons on his forehead rioted like little green snakes.

"Heaven and earth are unparalleled!" Word by word, Qi Hao's scarlet eyes flashed with jumping fire.

The internal force of the whole body was concentrated into the sword in his hand, and the surrounding air instantly became cold, like a violent cold wind that suddenly blew in the cold winter.

Qi Hao's headband was broken, and his black hair and his blood-stained ink-colored robe were blown up by the wind, and there was a bloodthirsty killing aura.

The cold sword qi converged into a cold light, and then I saw Qi Hao leap into the air, flipping his wrist, and countless swords instantly appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

The assassins couldn't tell the truth from the fake, so they could only watch Qi Hao standing in the light and shadow, the look in his eyes was extremely fierce.

"Lord Wang!" Seeing this, Du Jiang, who was still being pestered by the assassins on the side, knew that Qi Hao was urging the internal force of his whole body to break out of the encirclement, worried that his qi and blood would flow backwards and his skills would backfire, so he was so anxious that he slashed his sword on the assassin's head, and blood splashed his face.

However, the assassin's accomplice also stabbed Du Jiang twice in the calf.

With one hand to regain his luck along his Sanyang Acupoint, in an instant, the countless sword shadows flew towards the assassins.

Even if it was a phantom, the Assassins did not dare to take it lightly.

The blood in his chest was surging, Qi Hao's throat was fishy, and he resisted the urge to vomit blood, he squeezed his sword hard, stepped on the branch and flew in the direction that Gu Jinli fled just now.

When the assassins saw Qi Hao flying towards the path on the left, they were about to chase after him.

Du Jiang shouted to the guards: "Quick, stop them!" ”

The guards also knew that they couldn't let these assassins succeed no matter what, and it would be okay if they died, but if something happened to Qi Hao, then the guards' families would probably be implicated.

Everyone tried their best and really fought for Qi Hao for a while.

Hearing the sound of the fight that was close at hand, Qi Hao tried his best to suppress the discomfort in his throat, followed the sound and flew forward, and really saw Gu Jinli with his back against the big tree and his face pale.

Because he was crawling and rolling in the soil just now, plus he was hit by two arrows in his shoulder, and he was also hit by an arrow in his thigh.

It turned out that when she ran away just now, the man in black directly fired arrows at her.

So, her white clothes were stained with blood.

His hair was messy, and his little face was also bloody.

And the man in black standing in front of her was holding a sword and stabbing her in the chest.

Her body had lost so much blood that she had no ability to fight back, so she could only tense her body and close her eyes tightly, waiting for death to come.

"Poof", just when Gu Jinli thought that the cold sword would pierce into her body, suddenly a gravity pressed on her body.

Qi Hao exposed his entire back in front of the assassin, he hugged Gu Jinli tightly, and the black blood flowing from the corner of his mouth didn't know if it was because of the sword stabbing, or if he had just mobilized the internal force of his whole body and injured his internal organs, which aggravated the poison.

The assassin's sword was seventy percent strong.

After all, the main task assigned by the top is to assassinate Qi Hao, and Gu Jinli is secondary.

The assassin saw Qi Hao descending from the sky to block Gu Jinli's sword, so he sent the sword in his hand a few points.

This very strong force made the sword penetrate Qi Hao's heart as he wished.

"Tick tock", Gu Jinli heard something.

She felt a wet hand, and then realized that the sound of flowing water like a small stream was actually Qi Hao's wound bleeding.

Gu Jinli watched in a daze as Qi Hao's blue and purple face turned white little by little, and even had a feeling of extreme transparency, and some familiar pictures collapsed in her mind.

The man in black holding a sword, the dense rain of arrows, he held her on a horse, and did everything to protect her.

Black clothes, red blood, it's all so familiar.

No, it's not just familiar, that's what really happened to her and him!

But why, why can't she remember when and where it happened?

Gu Jinli's lips pursed, and the hand that unconsciously grabbed Qi Hao's arm was trembling faintly.

Her voice tightened, as if she had suddenly suffered from aphasia, and she couldn't say a word.

"Ah Gu ......" consciousness became more and more blurred, and Qi Hao's hand holding Gu Jinli slipped down a little.

"Ahh

"Ah...... Look at...... Fast...... The sound of running ...... didn't fall, and Qi Hao leaned back with a "bang".

"Qi Hao!" Twitching in her heart for no reason, Gu Jinli screamed: "Wake up, wake up!" ”

Her voice trembled slightly, revealing unconscious nervousness and trepidation.

However, Qi Hao did not respond.

The last shred of reason left made her not forget to take the pulse of Qi Hao.

The main assassination mission was completed, and the Assassin only hesitated for a moment, deciding that it was better to cut the grass or eradicate it.

He glanced at his companion, and the man in black on the side was about to stab Gu Jinli from behind.

"Lord Wang!" At this time, Du Jiang, who had a strong smell of blood, finally rushed over with the guards.

Each of them had a color on their faces, and at first glance they really looked like warriors who had survived the bloody battle of Shura.

After seeing Qi Hao lying on the ground lifeless, Du Jiang's angry sword cut off the arm of the assassin who was about to attack Gu Jinli from behind.

The other guards were also infected by Du Jiang's momentum, and they were even more brave than just now.

The Assassins were shocked, and after pestering for a while, realizing that they were not taking advantage of half of the money, they made a gesture and the group retreated.

Du Jiang was worried about Qi Hao's injury, so he didn't chase it.

He squatted down, nervously probed Qi Hao's vague snort, and "sighed" in his heart, "Wang...... The prince ......"

Gu Jinli's chest rose and fell, and she seemed to be frightened in Du Jiang's eyes.

Only she knew that she was so frightened by Qi Hao that the hand on Qi Hao's pulse couldn't find his pulse.

Losing proportion, it seems that it is the first time in the past two years that there are no masters of the six gods.

I don't know why, but my face is moist.

After touching her face, Gu Jinli realized that it was not raining, but she was crying.

There are still arrows on her body that have not been pulled out, and she can't move, and the pain of a few wounds is not as good as one ten-thousandth of what she has in her heart.

It's just that she doesn't want to admit that this pain is caused by Qi Hao.

"Concubine Gu, what should I do now? Lord Wang...... He ......" Du Jiang clenched his fists hard, and after two sentences, his eyes turned red.

"Qi Hao...... He'll be fine. Gu Jinli bit her lip tightly, her teardrop-stained eyelashes trembled, and she forced herself to calm down.

These words are not so much to comfort Du Jiang, but to comfort themselves.

It wasn't until there was a fishy astringency in her lips that she felt Qi Hao's pulse.

Qi Hao's pulse is very weak and weak, as if it is a string that is about to break, as long as you play it a little carelessly, it will break in an instant.

The blood-stained hand carefully opened Qi Hao's eyelids and looked at it, Gu Jinli let go of the lip that had bitten the blood, and said in a hoarse voice: "Du Jiang, we still have two hours to spare." ”

Du Jiang instantly understood what Gu Jinli meant, and his eyes lit up, "Concubine Gu, can he still be saved?!" ”

Gu Jinli didn't care about the harsh and awkward title that once made her harsh, her hand around Qi Hao's shoulders tightened, and her tone was a little lower: "The poison in Qi Hao is called 'Linghua Drunk', when the toxin spreads throughout the body, the person's entire body seems to be frozen by a big ice cube, it will become cold and hard, and finally there will be no heartbeat and breathing." ”

And now, Qi Hao's body has begun to get colder.

After hearing this, Du Jiang stood up anxiously like an ant on a hot pot, rubbing his hands and worrying: "In this barren mountain and wilderness, I can't even find a place to live, where to find the antidote?" ”

Gu Jinli looked at the sky for a while, and saw that large areas of dark clouds were gathered together, and there were signs of rain, so she pursed her lips and said, "Du Jiang, you divide people into three groups." ”

"One went to find a place to shelter from the wind and rain temporarily, and the other went to find firewood and licorice. The other group rushed to Yunguo overnight to tell the old emperor of Yunguo the news of our assassination on the road, and asked him to find someone to pick us up. ”

It's better to have something to do than to do it here and watch Qi Hao die, Du Jiang answered, and immediately commanded people to work according to Gu Jinli's instructions.

Three groups of men and horses are looking for a place to live, those who are collecting firewood are collecting firewood, and those looking for licorice are also looking for licorice with a fire fold.

The messengers who had gone to Yunguo also galloped away on the horses left behind by the Assassins.

Qi Hao's injuries were too serious to be bumped on the horse, let alone moved.

The best thing to do is to find a place where he can lie quietly.

Otherwise, the onset of the toxin would have accelerated, and he would not have been able to last even two hours.

As for the antidote to "Linghua Drunk", the current situation cannot be prepared by Gu Jinli.

However, Shennong's Materia Medica: Shennong tasted all kinds of herbs, encountered seventy-two poisons every day, and got licorice to solve them.

Therefore, Gu Jinli thought that medicinal herbs like licorice, which are common in the wild forest, should be extremely easy to find.

Anyway, let's give Qi Hao a service first, and then talk about it, it can be delayed for a while.

Except for licorice, all Gu Jinli could think of was to bleed Qi Hao when the toxin had not completely invaded his whole body.

"Du Jiang." Rolling up Qi Hao's sleeves, Gu Jinli turned his head and said, "Give me a clean dagger." ”

Although Du Jiang didn't understand what Gu Jinli was going to do with the dagger at the moment, he still took out a small and delicate dagger from his arms without saying a word.

Gu Jinli roasted the dagger on the fire fold, and then slashed Qi Hao's wrist hard.

"Bang lala", as if he had been knocked over a drink that didn't require money, Qi Hao's blood instantly flowed to the ground.

"Concubine Gu, what are you doing?!" Du Jiang's heart tightened, and his eyes were full of defense when he looked at Gu Jinli.

He actually forgot that the woman in front of him had been bent on Qi Hao's life, why did he forget it in a hurry?

"When the black blood is almost gone, I want to give him licorice again, and he should be able to last until tomorrow to reach the Cloud Kingdom." Gu Jinli ignored Du Jiangyin's cold and vigilant eyes, and looked at Qi Hao without blinking, "As long as I can survive to Yunguo, I can save his life." ”

Her expression was serious and focused, if she ignored her identity and the dirt on her face, from Du Jiang's point of view, she really looked like a serious doctor who saved lives and helped the wounded.

When these words came out, even Gu Jinli herself was stunned.

If it was before, she would really be as Du Jiang thought, and she would love to see Qi Hao die.

On the way, she hated him so much that her teeth itched.

And just now, she was like she couldn't control her heart and brain, so she was nervous for Qi Hao and afraid of him?

This feeling was strange to her, and it was also terrifying.

Especially when the sporadic memories flashed in her mind, she actually felt that at that moment, it seemed that everything between her and Qi Hao was involuntary.

Heartache is the same, and so is worry.

After hearing this, Du Jiang's hanging heart relaxed, and he also realized that he had misthought Gu Jinli.

Back then, the old emperor was poisoned, and Gu Jinli also used bloodletting to detoxify the old emperor.

While feeling annoyed in his heart, Du Jiang sneered: "Concubine Gu, just now the prince saw that you were being chased and killed by assassins, and in a hurry, he actually resorted to the 'unparalleled heaven and earth', which caused the qi and blood to flow backwards and collide with the internal organs. ”

What he said, on the one hand, was to let Gu Jinli know that Qi Hao could sacrifice his life for her, and on the other hand, he was also indirectly explaining that he was concerned about chaos, and hoped that Gu Jinli would not mind.

Indeed, Qi Hao's internal organs were injured, but Gu Jinli didn't expect that Qi Hao would not hesitate to use all his internal strength to hurt himself in order to save himself.

Her heart swelled up with a feeling of depression that made her breathless.

Moving her body, Gu Jinli accidentally touched the arrow feather at her thigh, causing her to gasp in pain.

"Concubine Gu, you also have injuries on your body, so let's take out the arrow first, right?" Du Jiang helped Qi Hao and said with concern.

Gu Jinli didn't speak, and continued to bleed Qi Hao.

Her expression was cold and calm, and people couldn't see the slightest emotion.

Du Jiang thought that Gu Jinli must have been angry with herself just now, so she didn't pay attention to herself.

He didn't want to say anything more, so he had to let the atmosphere be silent.

Just after Qi Hao's blood was no longer black and red, Gu Jinli used a handkerchief to tighten Qi Hao's wound and barely stop the bleeding.

"Tick, tick", just as the drizzle fell, the guard who had gone out to find a place to stay returned.

The guard's voice was a little excited: "Guard Du, there is a dilapidated thatched hut not far ahead, and you can barely live for one night." ”

When Du Jiang heard this, he put Qi Hao's arm on his shoulder, and hurriedly said to Gu Jinli: "Concubine Gu, the rain is getting heavier and heavier, let's hurry up and hide, right?" ”

"Hmm." Gu Jinli supported her knees and struggled to stand up, and the guards on the side were quick and helped her.

Knowing that now was not the time to be hypocritical, Gu Jinli didn't withdraw her hand, and let the guards help her walk in the direction of the broken grass house.

The broken grass house is really broken, and it is beyond the imagination of Gu Jinli and Du Jiang.

In addition to a half-broken roof, the doors and windows were also broken, and it felt like the house was flooded with wind from all sides.

The tables and stools were covered with a thick layer of dust, and the air smelled of mold.

There was also a large cobweb, spitting silk hanging from the corner.

It can be seen that this house has really been uninhabited for a long time.

Of course, it may also be because it is really broken and does not look good, so no one wants to settle down.

However, fortunately, there is also an earthen kang that can be used.

The eye-catching guard took off his coat and spread it on the kang so that Qi Hao could lie down.

Considering that Gu Jinli's injuries had not yet been treated, Du Jiang said: "Concubine Gu, my subordinates will go outside to guard first." ”

"After you take care of your wounds, call us."

With that, he went out with his guards.

After closing the door, several of them were in a group, all with their backs to the broken window, intimately blocking the wind outside for Gu Jinli.

Gu Jin's eyes moved slightly, she looked down at the arrow feather that was pierced on her thigh, closed her eyes and raised her hand violently.

The teeth bit back at the same place where her lip had been broken just now, and she burst into tears in pain.

The fine sweat on her forehead was dense, sticking to her hair.

Throwing away the arrow feathers, she comforted that these arrows were nothing compared to the sins she had suffered in the "Ten Thousand Cave Towers" back then, and at the same time she clenched the two arrows on her shoulders and pulled them out together.

With a muffled grunt, her back was soaked.

This time, she only brought poison needles and poison powder.

There are no hemostatic drugs and other panacea, so Qi Hao and her can only suffer it alive.

Especially Qi Hao, who put so much blood, his life is hanging by a thread.

"Yala", she tore the hem of her middle coat into strips, and after bandaging herself, she took off Qi Hao's bloody coat and wrapped the strips of cloth around his chest.

The wound that hurt to save her.

The assassin's sword is fast and ruthless.

It's just that there is a difference of half a minute and a half, and Qi Hao doesn't have to wait for the poison to be released, and he is fatal by this sword on the spot.

With cold fingers and a bow, Gu Jinli's gaze fell on a small moth on the spider web, a little dazed.

Unconsciously, she seemed to be caught in a big net.

Can't break away, can't escape......

"Guards Du, firewood and licorice have been found."

"Okay, you ...... first" Du Jiang's words were not finished, but he heard Gu Jinli say inside: "Du Jiang, you can come in." ”

Gu Jinli shook Qi Hao's hand, and his body temperature dropped again.

Du Jiang came in with the guards and commanded the people to light the fire.

There was a broken bowl under the broken table, and Du Jiang filled half a bowl of rainwater outside, put it on the fire and boiled the licorice for Qi Hao.

After the medicine was boiled, Du Jiang stepped forward with the broken bowl and said, "Concubine Gu, it's okay." ”

Gu Jinli's injured leg lay flat, and the other leg was bent.

She didn't look at the spider webs anymore, but played with the arrow feathers, and said lightly without raising her head: "Give him a drink." ”

A large earthen kang, she sat far away from Qi Hao.

One east and one west.

Moreover, she didn't say a word from the whole process of lighting the fire and boiling the medicine just now.

Compared to her reaction when she saw Qi Hao's injury just now, Du Jiang obviously felt that something was wrong with Gu Jinli.

It seems that he has returned to the "Lin Sheng" who returned to Beijing for revenge and was full of affection.
