Chapter 34: The Pride of the Aristocrats
The sunset is like blood, the sunset melts gold, Song Boyo looked at Ji Lie elegantly, strolling down the valley, the Yin Moon Guard wrapped in a moon robe came out of the shadows, the archers put away their bows, and the sword and shield held swords and shields in their hands and surrounded their Royal Highness the Prince.
Yurov was not beside Song Boyo, he walked quickly to the exit of the canyon, climbed into the long-awaited chariot, and slowly drove towards the entrance with three heavily armed single horsemen, he was a disciple of the soldiers, and naturally knew the truth of the first soldier to fight, the second to fight, and the second to fight, but in his opinion, whether it was a plan or a fight, the final victory or defeat depended on the disparity in strength.
Blood flowed out of Ji Lie's fingers, dripping down his thighs, soaking a puddle of yellow sand, of course, the sword he cut did not hit the point, the reason why so much blood was shed was that he secretly clasped it with his fingers again, and prevented the little maid from bandaging his wounds. And this benefit is obvious, he successfully lured Song Boyo and the secret ambush out, and at this moment, His Royal Highness the Prince of Song Kingdom was standing thirty steps away, staring at the blood on his legs, and his face was sad.
Ji Lie didn't have the heart to think about the truth or falsehood of this sorrow, he stood up with Xiao Yu's support, staggered to the low case, and bowed to Song Boyo, who was surrounded by guards: "Ji Lie was born in Anguo since he was a child, and he has been ignorant for many years, but he doesn't know that the venerable toe is here?" ”
One of the guards said, "Your Highness! ”
Ji Lie was stunned for a moment, and bowed again with a moving expression: "It turned out that my uncle was coming, Ji Lie accidentally injured my uncle's guard, I beg my uncle to forgive me!" After worshipping, I wanted to pick up the wine on the table.
"You wrap up your wounds first, and then taste Anguo's spring peach fruit wine later." At this time, Song Boyo, who was in the crowd, once again showed his benevolence, but he did not come out of the group of guards, not because he was afraid of anything, but because he was waiting.
"Thank you, uncle."
Because of excessive blood loss, Ji Lie's face turned pale, and he almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, Xiao Yu saw the opportunity quickly and helped him.
The little black wizard walked over, dug out a ball of medicinal mud from the earthen jar, and evenly applied it to Ji Lie's wound, Xiao Yu lowered his head and wrapped Ji Lie's wound.
Ji Lie stood up and looked directly at Song Boyao, Song Boyo looked quite similar to him in terms of appearance, but his expression and bearing were very different, although the corners of their mouths were slightly curved upward, but Ji Lie made people know what stubbornness was at a glance, while Song Boyo was not, he was noble with gentleness, mildness mixed with contempt.
Looking at each other for a few breaths, Song Boyo came out of the crowd, holding his sword, and asked, "Where are you going?" ”
Ji Lie replied, "Yan Kingdom." ”
Song Boyo thought for a while and said: "Father Jun often thinks of your mother, and I have also seen that you do have the blood of the Song people in your body. If you go to the Song Kingdom with me, your future achievements will definitely be far greater than now! As for your sin of playing with me, I don't know! What do you think? ”
To put it simply, this is the true aristocratic arrogance, they play with stratagem and disdain stratagem! And the reason why Song Boyo came down was to wait for Ji Lie's reply.
Ji Lie was silent, of course he knew that some words were as light as a feather, and some promises were heavier than a thousand mountains, and the nobles at this moment replied, once they blurted out, there would be no room for any turnaround, otherwise he would be laughed at and scolded by the world, and everyone abides by the rules of the game, how can he get out? Unless he is willing to live in exile for the rest of his life, and never ascend to the hall of elegance!
And Song Boyo's promise is very tempting, at least on the surface, if anyone chooses, I am afraid they will choose to go to Song Kingdom with him, but Ji Lie remembered at this time that night, he was sitting under the wall listening to the book, and the little girl who was studying tilted her head and asked him: "You, will you come back?" ”
Yes, I'll be back......
In a blink of an eye, he remembered the bamboo tube again, the two bamboo sticks that were long and short, but An Jun told him that this was the choice of fate, what a ridiculous fate, what a ridiculous lie!
Ji Lie cracked his mouth and smiled silently, he puffed up his chest, faced the leisurely Song Boyo, and said loudly: "Ji Lie is also greedy for family affection, but Ji Lie doesn't want to be anyone's pawn!" ”
"Your choice?"
"Yan Guo!"
"Smack, smack, smack!"
Applause rang out, Song Boyo looked at Ji Lie with a smile, there was appreciation, disdain, and a trace of ruthlessness in his eyes, and after three high-fives, he looked at Song Rang who was standing next to the carriage: "Your choice?" ”
Song Rang didn't speak, walked to Ji Lie's side, and stood still. Ji Ying walked in front of Song Boyo, knelt down on one knee, brushed the yellow sand on the ground with the palm of her hand, put down the bright yellow shoulder buckle, and then stood up, retreated, and retreated to Ji Lie's side.
"Smack, smack, smack!"
The applause sounded again, Song Boyo's fair face had a layer of light red, he picked up the shoulder buckle, still smiling, but the appreciation in his eyes was less, but the ruthlessness was stronger, after three high-fives, he looked at the wine on the low table, and said with a smile: "It seems that I can't drink the spring peach fruit wine that you sincerely offered." As he spoke, he retreated into the group of guards, turned around and walked towards the top of the slope, turned his back to Ji Lie, and waved his hand.
Of course, he didn't have to fear dark arrows, and who would dare to shoot them into his vest? That's the difference between people!
The opposite formation was formed, with fourteen sword and shield men in front, four archers behind, and twelve yin moon guards on both sides, waiting for His Royal Highness the Prince to climb to the top of the slope.
There are thirty people on the other side, and there are only nine people on his side, Ji Lie was injured in the leg, Xiao Hei is equivalent to nothing, in fact, seven people against thirty people, and the inevitable bloody battle is coming.
Ji Lie got into the carriage, stood on the wheel, pulled out the Tiger Evil Sword, Xiao Yu stood beside him, the butterfly wings were already in his hands, Xiao Hei also trembled and climbed up, he will act as Ji Lie's royal hand, fortunately, this wheel is wide and strong enough, enough to accommodate three bodies that are not majestic.
The wind is hoarse, and the blood sun is sinking in the west.
Ji Lie bent down and patted the thin horse's buttocks, but the thin horse did not move forward, but turned around and fanned him, Ji Lie laughed softly: "Old man, it's up to you!" ”
"Wow!"
A cry pierced through the clouds and the sun, and the evil bird suddenly flew off Ji Lie's shoulder and pecked at the eye of an archer opposite.
"Roar!"
At the same time, the bald bear roared and rammed into the enemy on the opposite side with his hammer, and at the same moment, Ji Ying also kicked the ground violently, and his body catapulted into the crowd of enemies, and they wanted to smash a gap in the enemy line so that the carriage could pass.
"Boom, boom!"
The arrows of the Tian brothers burst out, and the other party immediately returned fire, two of which went straight to Xiao Hei, who was driving the carriage, Ji Lie and Xiao Yu waved their swords and picked up their blades, and the thin horses rushed to the enemy formation with the broken car.
……
The distance from the starting point of the carriage to the mouth of the valley was only a hundred steps, and the flames of killing were ignited here, and the Yin Moon Guard pounced on the carriage like a fierce falcon, they wanted to tear Ji Lie off, but Xiao Yu's butterfly wings could always reach their throat one step faster than them.
"Bang!"
Ji Lie had just barely tried to cut off a scruples of the Yin Moon Guard, and another arrow flew in front of him, which hit Xiao Hei's eyebrows, and the timid witch official shook the reins desperately, and lowered his head inadvertently, but just avoided this fatal arrow.
"Whew!"
Xiong Zhan roared, his huge and incomparable body was the target of swords and arrows, and although he was wearing extremely heavy armor, he could not dodge such a dense attack, and in a short time, the armor was covered with arrows, making him look like a huge thorn.
Ji Lie didn't see Huo Xun, but he heard the sound of the whirlwind twin axes dancing in the crowd, hissing and sizzling like scraping a pot, and occasionally, blood lines shot out from the enemy or the people on the other side.
"Boom!"
Ji Ying held up the iron shield to block the blow, and poked off a head with a sword, but he didn't dodge the Yin Moon Guard behind him after all, his shoulder guards were slashed, and there was a piece of meat that flew out, but he was still fighting and advancing.
Song Rang floated on the periphery, and four Yin Moon Guards entangled him, and the Tian brothers galloped after the carriage, which they used to fend off attacks from all directions, and then returned arrows from the strings, plunging them into the throat or eyebrows of the enemy.
"Whoosh!"
The evil bird fluttered its wings, with a bloody eyeball in its long pointed mouth, but Ji Lie didn't have time to praise it, because another Yin Moon Guard swooped down on his side, and the pale Xiao Yu greeted it.
At this time, only twenty steps away from the mouth of the valley, the speed of the carriage was getting slower and slower, and the thin wall of people in front of them was like a cloud that could never be pierced, and they scattered and gathered, gathered and scattered, and they were bent on dragging Ji Lie out of the carriage, and then, carrying Ji Lie's hair, he offered him to His Royal Highness the Prince who was watching coldly from the top of the slope.
The blood is spreading, loyalty and honor are fighting to the death, the fight is fierce, and even when Xiao Yu flew back again, there was a blood flower on his shoulder.
'Do you want to stop there?' ’
Ji Lie said a sentence in his heart, and swung his sword with all his might, cutting away a sword and shield hand that touched the approach! "Poof!" There was a soft sound not far away, and when he turned his head to see, Song Rang had a sword on his waist, but he didn't care about the situation, and stabbed out with a sword, hitting the throat of a Yin Moon Guard, and when the other party's blood line had not yet spurted out, he turned around, got out of the encirclement, and went to the valley mouth.
The black hurricane was like a tiger entering the forest, instantly breaking the balance of the bitter battle, the bald bear Zhan held the war hammer, spinning wildly, Huo Xun was blind in one eye, covered in blood, but he did not lie in a pool of blood, but spun the axe and jumped high, slashing into the body of an archer from top to bottom, cutting it in half.
"Houzi, let's go!" Bloody-covered with a roar!
"Drive!!"
The scrawny horse, the galloping skinny horse, it exploded at this moment, and it rushed madly into the ravine, knocking a sword and shield hand in its tracks as it went.
The sunlight disappeared one by one, the grimaces on both sides couldn't stop shaking, as if screaming, the neighing behind the carriage was still continuing, Ji Lie grabbed the pillar, turned his head and looked, the remaining Yin Yuewei was like a ghost, the Tian brothers were throwing arrows at them, and behind Yin Yuewei were chasing Song Rang and Ji Ying, farther away, Huo Xun was no longer visible at all, the huge war hammer of the bald bear Zhan was stacked in the sunset, and several sword and shield hands around him were swung around, and the violent smashing directly hammered into Ji Lie's heart, Ji Lie opened his mouth wide, wanting to shout but couldn't.
"Boom, boom......"
"Houzi!!"
The ground was trembling, Ji Lie subconsciously turned around, and hit a row of iron walls head-on, it was a chariot and three heavily armored single horsemen side by side, a narrow canyon, they had blocked any crevice, and there was no way out.
Xiao Yu, who was already seriously injured, glanced at Ji Lie fixedly at this moment, then flicked his toes, turned his head and ran towards the chariot.
"Xiaoyu, come back!!"
