Chapter 16: Fire Attack

Xia Wanyi retreated while trying to find a way. I was too fanatical just now, and I only cared about being cool, but now I don't have enough physical strength, how can I be fast enough for the other party.

And what made him even more speechless was that he took a few steps back and tripped over a stone on his heel.

"Ahh Xia Wanyi fell in response, fortunately with a parachute bag on his back, otherwise he would have crashed into a stone.

The owner of the two knives smirked smirkedly.

"Be your prince again in the next life."

"Click, click, click!" The military flashlight rang three times in succession. The man in black on the left suddenly screamed, his eyes instantly blinded by the flashing lights, and he lost his ability to move.

Seeing that the man in black on the right was about to cut with a knife, and the knife was about to cut Xia Wanyi's hair, the man in black, together with the man in black who was blinded by him, suddenly stopped, his pupils widened, and he looked at Xia Wanyi incredulously.

Xia Wanyi took the opportunity to block the knife of the man in black with a flashlight, and at this moment, the man in black also fell to the side because his chest was pierced by a knife from behind.

And the man in black who killed his own person by mistake before saw that the general trend was gone, but he put the knife on his neck and wiped it, and he lost his breath after a while.

Xia Wanyi stood up, looked around, and found that none of the people in black had survived. A trace of blood was already flowing from the corner of Murong Jia's mouth, and he came to him with his hand covering his shoulder.

Once again, at a critical moment, Murong Jia saved him.

He hugged Murong Jia, who was a little pale, into his arms, and called out distressedly: "Jia'er." ”

"Is the prince alright?" Murong Jia swallowed in his throat and asked with concern. Unexpectedly, as soon as the words fell, a mouthful of blood flowed out of his mouth.

You fool, you have something wrong with you, and you ask me if I'm okay.

Helping Murong Jia to check these black-clothed people, Xia Wanyi asked, "Jia'er, what is the origin of these black-clothed people?" ”

Murong Jia shook his head and said, "The concubines don't know either, these people look at them with eyes, and there is nothing on them that can be distinguished." ”

Nodding, Xia Wanyi said, "In that case, let's go to the village to heal you." ”

"Prince, I'm worried that there are still assassins in the village, let's bypass and go back to the palace directly." Murong Jia tugged on Xia Wanyi's collar and said.

Xia Wanyi glanced at the village and felt that Murong Jia's words made sense, so she immediately decided to bypass.

But before the foot of the mountain could be reached, suddenly there were one arrow after another that broke through the air!

In the summer evening, my back was cold, and I was sweating.

"Careless!" Xia Wanyi dodged behind a big rock, and said secretly in her heart. It wasn't the men in black who took the lead in attacking, but the arrows in the village!

"Could it be that the whole village has become an assassin? There's no reason, even if you wear black clothes and cover your face, the whole village won't be able to escape the involvement! Could it be that the villagers were held hostage by the Assassins? ”

Just when Xia Wanyi was analyzing the situation, Murong Jia spoke: "Prince, the concubine thinks that this village has been held hostage by assassins, and on weekdays this is the time to make a fire for cooking, but now not only is there no fireworks, but it is also quiet. ”

Murong Jia's inference was the same as his.

"Who is so bold as to do this?"

"You can only find out if you catch a live mouth and interrogate it."

Seeing these dense arrows speeding past the top of his head and on both sides of the stones, Xia Wanyi said worriedly: "In this situation, not to mention whether you can catch the other party, it will not be easy to get out alive." ”

"No matter how many arrows there are, they will run out, but I'm afraid that they will send people up again, and two fists will be invincible to four hands." Murong Jia said.

However, what worried Murong Jia did not happen, but something even worse happened!

At this moment, suddenly a firelight "poofed" overhead, followed by a second, and then a third......

And when the fire touched the slightly dry grass and trees, it immediately burst into flames.

"Fire Attack!" Xia Wanyi's face was shocked.

"The prince is leaving, the concubine is here to cover you!" Murong Jia gasped and pushed Xia Wanyi.

Grabbing Murong Jia's hand, Xia Wanyi said resolutely with a look in her eyes: "It's all this time, we must advance and retreat together." ”

"It won't burn us for a while." Xia Wan pointed to the stones where they were hiding, there were no dead plants and trees around them, unless the fire was so strong that they would either be choked to death by smoke or steamed to death by heat.

Looking at Xia Wanyi, Murong Jia pursed her lips and buried her head in his arms.

"Set fire to the mountain, even if you are an assassin, you will not come up." Xia Wanyi wiped the blood on Murong Jia's mouth and said.

And time is passing bit by bit.

Above the sky, the morning glow is gorgeous, and the sun shines down from the clouds. The beauty of the heavens intersects with the fire on the ground.

The fire grew bigger and bigger, and the smoke filled the air.

Xia Wanyi and Murong Jia were still not affected much by the nest behind the stones, but from time to time a thick smoke drifted in, choking people uncomfortably, and the temperature around them made them sweat a lot.

"Is there anyone on the mountain?" I don't know how long it took, Xia Wanyi and Murong Jia heard a strong voice from below the village.

"General Qiyu, according to the confession of the man in black who has just been captured, the crown prince and the crown princess are on the mountain." Another voice said.

"What?!" The man known as the general was full of anger in his tone, "Hurry up and search me up the mountain!" I can't find them, so bring your heads to me! ”

"Yes!" The general gave an order, and received a reply in unison.

But the general drew the sword at his waist and rushed to the mountain first.

"Prince, this voice ......" Murong Jia changed her sorrowful face and said happily.

"Regulus!" With the residual memories of his previous life, Xia Wanyi quickly judged it.

Could it be that the assassins in the village were captured by Xuanyuan Yu?

This Xuanyuan is the Xuanyuan language, which is the first product of the imperial guard with a knife and the general of Zhenqi, and he has played with Xia Wanyi from childhood to adulthood. His father, Xuanyuan Wei, was a doctor of imperial history, who went through two dynasties and was a man.

"Crown Prince, Crown Princess, where are you? I'm Xuanyuan! Xuanyuan, who was not dressed in military uniform, shouted while holding a sword to split the burning grass and trees.

At this time, there were several black marks on his face, and the corners of his clothes were burned a little.

"Regulus! We're here! Xia Wanyi shouted with a military flashlight on.

"There!" A soldier pointed his finger at a place filled with smoke and a glimmer of bright light.

Xuanyuan ran in the direction the soldier pointed.

"Crown Prince, Crown Princess, are you all right?" After seeing Xia Wanyi and Murong Jia, Xuanyuan Yu asked with both joy and worry.

Xia Wanyi looked at Xuanyuan Yu in front of her, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief in her heart.

"Hongu is fine, but Jia'er is injured."

Murong Jia smiled bitterly, and suddenly let go of his hand, and he fainted.

The limit had been reached, and the tense nerves suddenly relaxed, like deflated balloons.

"Jia'er!" Xia Wanyi hugged Murong Jia tightly.
