Chapter 266: Na Zhe is assassinated

After resting for a while, everyone continued to climb to the top of the mountain, and after about half an hour, everyone finally climbed to the top of the mountain.

Looking into the distance, you can see the rolling mountains all around, which makes people feel refreshed.

Na Zhe took Qin Wanlan, Cui Daoshu took Qi Jiuniang, and the two pairs of Biren leaned on the top of the mountain, looking at the beautiful scenery in the distance.

Pang Xu quietly summoned a few guards, and then whispered a few words. The guards understood, dispersed, and then passed the order to each of them.

Everyone scattered around, vigilantly watching the situation around them, but they found nothing.

After about an hour, everyone's interest was exhausted, and they were ready to go down the mountain and return to Jinling City.

At this time, it was about three o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was not so hot.

Everyone walked slowly down the mountain, and Pang Xu walked in front, constantly observing the surroundings. Zhai Xiaoshan followed Na Zhe and Cui Daoshu's side, surrounded by guards, tightly surrounding several people in the middle.

Na Zhe felt that something was wrong, and he didn't say anything. He continued to chat with Qin Wanlan, telling her jokes as he walked.

After a while, Qi Jiuniang also came over and listened to Na Zhe's jokes with Qin Wanlan.

Cui Daoshu laughed secretly in his heart, these are all jokes on the Internet in later generations, and they are already rotten on the street. But thousands of years ago, it was undoubtedly quite attractive.

Qi Jiuniang and Qin Wanlan were teased by Na Zhe from time to time, and the guards around them couldn't help laughing.

Time passed quickly, and after half an hour, everyone came to the gate of Qingliang Temple.

The guards who stayed behind and the stewards and servants of the Cao family greeted them and asked everyone if they were having fun.

Cui Daoshu said with a smile: "We are all tired, let's go back to the city." ”

So the guards went into action, and many of them got into several carriages and tinkered inside.

Na Zhe felt very strange, he pulled Zhai Xiaoshan aside and asked quietly, "Is there something wrong?" What are the guards doing? ”

Zhai Xiaoshan shook his head and said, "There is no situation, just let everyone be careful and do a good job of guarding." ”

Qi Jiuniang and Qin Wanlan went to the temple, solved their personal situation, and soon came out.

The guards were ready, Cui Daoshu and Qi Jiuniang got into a carriage, and Na Zhe got Qin Wanlan into an empty car, and then lowered the curtain.

Zhai Xiaoshan walked over and asked, "Sir, aren't you going to take the car?" ”

Na Zhe shook his head: "It's too stuffy in the car, I'd better walk, it will be cooler." ”

Zhai Xiaoshan persuaded: "Then sir, you should sit in the carriage, it will be safer." ”

"Didn't you say there was no happening? What are you afraid of? ”

Zhai Xiaoshan didn't know what to say, so he had to just say that.

The convoy started slowly and headed for the entrance to the valley.

Pang Xu walked in front with five guards as usual, about fifty meters away from the convoy.

The inside of the first carriage was empty, but the curtain hung low, and no one knew what was inside.

In the second carriage sat Cui Daoshu and Qi Jiuniang, and in the third carriage was Qin Wanlan, Na Zhe was walking next to the carriage, and beside him was Zhai Xiaoshan, who was chatting with him.

The fourth and fifth carriages, like the first, had their curtains hanging low, and it was not known what was inside.

The guards formed a standard security formation, with a dozen people following the wagons around the convoy.

On the periphery were more than thirty guards, who surrounded the convoy in an oval, about thirty meters away from the convoy.

Surrounded by dense woods, the guards carefully observed the situation in the woods. They all put their hands on the hilts of their knives, ready to draw their knives at any moment.

But when the convoy reached the entrance of the valley, and the first carriage was about to leave the valley, nothing happened.

Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and at this moment, there was a 'jump', and then everyone heard the roar of the feather arrow as it flew at high speed in the air.

"Whoosh.......

Zhai Xiaoshan heard the whistling sound of the feather arrows and pushed Na Zhe away.

"Poof." Blood splattered in all directions, and a feathered arrow was stuck in Nazhe's shoulder.

Zhai Xiaoshan immediately pounced, pressed Na Zhe to the ground, and then covered him with his body.

At this time, the guards drew their swords one after another, and some of the outer guards wanted to charge in the direction where the feather arrows were fired.

Pang Xu hurriedly ran back, shouting as he ran: "Come back and form a formation!" Get your shield out! ”

At this moment, another feather arrow flew over in an arc and pierced Zhai Xiaoshan's back.

Some guards hurriedly blocked Zhai Xiaoshan, raised their knives and watched vigilantly in the direction where the feather arrows were flying.

Several guards hurriedly opened the fourth and fifth carriages, took out a few shields, and then a few people guarded Zhai Xiaoshan and Na Zhe, and the other few gathered outside Cui Daoshu's carriage.

The curtain of the first carriage was lifted, and a burly man in plate armor jumped down.

With a big axe in his hand, he walked towards Zhai Xiaoshan.

Pang Xu had already run back to the convoy, and he shouted loudly: "Lined up on both sides of the convoy, ready to fight!" Bombardiers get ready and start the fire right away! ”

In the first carriage, three heavy infantry wearing plate armor came out one after another, their whole bodies were wrapped in armor, their faces were somewhat hideous, and they all held huge weapons in their hands, like demon gods.

The four hoplites came to both sides of the convoy and looked at the dense forest on both sides, all silent.

The guards quickly lined up in a mandarin duck formation, protecting both sides of the convoy.

Cui Daoshu lifted the curtain and asked with concern: "Pang Xu, how are Zhai Xiaoshan and Na Zhe?" ”

Pang Xu hurriedly rushed up, stuffed Cui Daoshu into the carriage, then lowered the curtain and shouted loudly: "Cui Gongzi, don't come out, we will deal with the outside matter." Just stay there and don't mess with it. ”

Qi Jiuniang asked, "What's going on outside?" So what's going on now? ”

Pang Xu didn't answer at all, he asked a few guards to guard Cui Daoshu's carriage, covering the carriage with shields as much as possible.

The guards agreed, and they raised their shields one after another, covering the carriage.

Pang Xu ran to Zhai Xiaoshan's side, pulled away the guards surrounding them, rushed in and asked eagerly, "Captain Zhai, how are you?" ”

Zhai Xiaoshan turned over with difficulty, revealing the Zhe below.

Na Zhe covered the wound on his shoulder with his hand, and snorted and said, "I'm not dead yet, but if it's a little later, I will be crushed to death by Zhai Xiaoshan." ”

Pang Xu saw that Zhai Xiaoshan had a feather arrow stuck in his back, so he asked, "Captain Zhai, how does your back feel?" ”

Zhai Xiaoshan said: "It seems that I was hit by a sledgehammer, I shouldn't have pierced it, I'm wearing leather armor." ”

Na Zhe continued to shout: "Lao Tzu is still bleeding, and you don't care about me?" ”

Pang Xu roared: "That sir, you can't die, it's just that your flesh and skin are injured." But Captain Zhai was hit by an arrow in the back, and it was very likely that he was seriously injured, so of course I asked him first. ”

Na Zhe felt a little unreasonable, so he had to grit his teeth and cover the wound and stop talking.

Pang Xu said to Zhai Xiaoshan: "I'll help you remove your armor and see the situation on your back." ”

Zhai Xiaoshan was not hypocritical, and immediately began to take off his coat.

The two quickly removed the leather armor on Zhai Xiaoshan's body, Pang Xu picked off Zhai Xiaoshan's underwear, looked at his back, and let out a sigh:

"Captain Zhai, your back is fine, there is just a bruise, just take care of it."

Zhai Xiaoshan wiped the sweat from his face, "Let's take a look at that gentleman." ”

The two crouched down and began to examine the wound on Nazhe's shoulder.

At this time, Na Zhe's shoulder was already soaked with blood, his face was a little pale, and he gritted his teeth and persisted.

Pang Xu stretched out his hand, holding the tail end of the feather arrow with his left hand and the shaft of the arrow outside the wound with his right hand.

"Captain Zhai, you hold down that gentleman, and I'll break the feather arrow."

Zhai Xiaoshan hurriedly held down Na Zhe, and before Na Zhe could speak, Pang Xu slammed his hands hard.

"Click."

The shaft of the feather arrow broke, revealing only a little more than an inch long on Na Zhe's shoulder.

Pang Xu tore off a placket of his own clothes and began to bandage Na Zhe's wound.

Na Zhe screamed in pain: "Pang Xu, you animal, you hurt Lao Tzu to death." When you return to Qishan Island, I have to let the boss lock you up in a small black house. ”

Pang Xu bandaged and talked nonsense: "That sir, my craftsmanship is quite good in the escort team." In the past, my old sow broke her leg, and I cured it. Your little wound is really not a big deal, so you can bear with it. ”

Na Zhe was so angry that he jumped like thunder: "Okay, you Pang Xu, you actually treat me as your old sow." I'm going to go to An Dalang to sue you and deduct your salary for one year, no, ten years. Let you have no money to marry a daughter-in-law, and be a bachelor for the rest of your life! ”

Qin Wanlan in the carriage was very scared at first, but when she heard the conversation between Pang Xu and Na Zhe, she felt angry and funny. She gradually calmed down, and her heart settled down a little.

Zhai Xiaoshan stood up and observed the situation around him shirtless. The guards were all lined up in a tight mandarin duck formation, with shields in the front row and various weapons in the back row.

A few bombardiers had already lit a few small bonfires on the ground, put * in their nets, ready to throw them out at any moment.

At this moment, some people came out of the woods on both sides, all of them wearing leather armor, covering their faces with various things, holding various weapons in their hands, and silently approaching the convoy.

Zhai Xiaoshan's face was grim, and he shouted loudly: "Don't move, listen to my orders." Whoever dares to attack at will will be beheaded immediately! ”

The guards were all in their hearts, clenched the weapons in their hands, and no one dared to make a sound.

Zhai Xiaoshan walked to the front of the fourth carriage, lifted the curtain, and began to quickly assemble the imitation brought by Zhao Zizhong from later generations.

Soon he was ready, and then he picked out a piece of leather armor and began to put it on.

At this time, Pang Xu had already finished bandaging Na Zhe's wound, and despite his loud protests, he stuffed him under Qin Wanlan's carriage.

Na Zhe was still shouting: "Pang Xu, you kill a thousand knives, why can Cui Daoshu sit in the carriage, but Lao Tzu has to hide under the carriage and eat sand?" ”
