Zhang Xuan picked up a few earthen spears and ran quickly to the east, about 100 steps, in front of him was a cliff on the hillside, and he crouched behind a big rock and looked down.

Below was a remote path, and in the distance a man was galloping towards him, looking backwards from time to time, his face was terrified, and he was desperately whipping his horse.

Just a hundred paces behind, more than a dozen Sui cavalrymen were closely chasing, they were wearing Mingguang armor, holding spears and Xueliang long knives, bows and arrows on their backs, and their war horses were chasing the fleeing men in front like the wind.

The trail is narrow, with valleys tens of feet deep on one side and rolling hills on the other, covered with dense forests.

"Help me!"

The man whipped his horse desperately, and when he saw the Sui cavalry chasing closer and closer, he shouted in despair.

To save or not to save?

Jang Hyun's hesitation was just a change of thought, and he made a decision.

At this time, more than a dozen Sui cavalry controlled the horse with their legs, and at the same time opened their bows and arrows on the horse, more than a dozen arrows shot into the air to the fugitives in front, and the war horse in front of them was hit by several arrows, and could no longer support it, with a mournful roar, he fell heavily to the bushes next to the mountain road, and the man was also thrown out more than two feet away, but he didn't seem to be injured, and fled to the hillside with a rolling belt.

More than a dozen fiery horses galloped towards the rolling yellow dust, and Zhang Xuan suddenly stood up, raised an earthen spear, and struggled to project it down the hillside.

The earth spear shot at the gun, the power was strong, the cavalry led by him could not dodge, and the spear 'poof!' The ground shot through the belly of the war horse under his crotch, and the war horse neighed miserably, and rolled down the other side of the hill with the cavalry.

The cavalry behind was so frightened that they urgently reined in their horses, and their front hooves were raised high, making a sloppy scream.

At this time, a cavalryman shouted, "Quickly retreat!" ”

More than a dozen cavalrymen retreated one after another, only to see a boulder of hundreds of catties carrying sand and tumbling down, blocking the mountain road.

The cavalrymen hurried up the hillside and immediately saw a strangely dressed young man standing by the woods on the hillside, with oddly short hair, a shabby kudzu robe, and a few spears in his hands.

Zhang Xuan overturned the boulder down the hillside, and simply threw a few earthen spears at the cavalry in succession, several spears came quickly, the cavalry hurriedly retreated to dodge, and several spears were heavily inserted into the ground.

Only then did they discover that it was not a spear, but a sharpened stick stripped of its bark, crudely made, but powerful enough to pierce their bodies.

The cavalrymen were furious, and they drew their bows and arrows, and when they looked up to look for the target, they found that the target was gone, and the man they were chasing was also nowhere to be seen.

Only then did the cavalry know that they had been fooled, and the men on the hillside attracted their attention and successfully covered the escape of their pursuers.

More than a dozen cavalrymen of the Sui army were so angry that they scolded, and the general had an order to catch the fleeing people, but they were not many in number, and the other party had responded, they were afraid that there was an ambush in the woods, so they had to shout and curse loudly and wait for reinforcements to arrive.

Zhang Xuan ran out of several miles with the rescued man in one breath, the man was exhausted, in front of him was a towering tree, growing luxuriantly, like a giant umbrella standing in the forest, the thick roots were intertwined and coiled like a python, it was the king of trees in this forest, and it was particularly eye-catching in the forest.

The man barely ran to the tree, bent over and gasped, he waved his hand and said, "Rest for a while, I.... I just can't run. ”

He sat under the big tree, panting with his back against the python-like roots, looking left and right, as if in shock.

Jang Hyun leaned against the root of another tree, his right hand vigilantly holding the military thorn pinned to his waist, and looked at the man in front of him.

His pistol only had three bullets, and he would never use it lightly until it was critical, and against this man, he would have enough to use a military stab.

The man was in his early thirties, with a short beard under his chin, a medium build, slender eyes, a high nose, and a bookish air in his martial arts.

His left leg was broken by the bushes when he fell off the horse, and he was drenched in blood, and Jang Hyun felt out of his arms a ball of hemostatic medicine made from mimosa and threw it to him, "chewing it and applying it to the wound to prevent infection." ”

The man was not in a hurry to take the medicine, stood up and gave a deep salute to Zhang Xuan, "Thank you for your life-saving grace, please ask Engong's name, I would like to remember it in my heart and report it later." ”

Zhang Xuan saw that he was extraordinary, and he was very polite, and he couldn't help but have a good impression in his heart, he was a native of Xi'an, which is now Chang'an, so he smiled and said: "My surname is Zhang Mingxuan, a native of Chang'an, who are you, why were you chased by the cavalry?" ”

"Oh! It turns out that Engong and I are fellow villagers. ”

The man saluted again, "In Xia Chang'an Li Mi." ”

"You are Li Mi, the prince of Pushan?"

Zhang Xuan looked at the man who was saved by himself in surprise, it turned out that he was the famous hero Li Mi at the end of the Sui Dynasty.

"It's exactly under it!"

Zhang Xuan has only been in this era for seven days, and the only people he has met are grandchildren, and the third person he met is the famous Li Mi in history, which makes him both surprised and very excited.

He knew that Li Mi followed Yang Xuangan to rebel, and after Yang Xuangan's defeat, Li Mi was also forced to flee, and it should be at this time that he just saved his life.

But Li Mi didn't feel strange, his family background was prominent, most Chang'an people had heard of him, but the young man in front of him made him a little curious, wearing a pair of tattered flower pants, his hair was not half an inch long, he looked tall and burly, and he was talented.

However, Li Mi was shocked at this time, and it seemed that he couldn't think of the origin of the interrogation of the other party, at this moment, Zhang Xuan suddenly let out a low cry, ran a few steps, and stabbed at a bush of lush bushes like lightning in his hand, only to hear a scream in the bushes, and a man with a long knife in his hand covered his chest and fell out.

The situation suddenly changed, and seven or eight ambush soldiers rushed out from above, from the bushes, and from behind the trees, and rushed towards them together.

Zhang Xuan's reaction was extremely sharp, his body flashed, dodged a knife to the back of the head, and his left leg swept out, hitting the opponent's head, this kick was enough to break three bricks, and the opponent's skull was shattered immediately.

Without waiting for his body to stand firm, he threw out diagonally, knocking the other man down, 'Click! With a bang, his iron arm had broken the other's neck.

There were eight people on the other side, and Jang Hyun killed three of them in the blink of an eye, but Li Mi was in a critical situation, and he scuffled with the man who jumped from above, while the other man came out of the crack in the root of the tree and stabbed Li Mi in the back with a spear silently.

Zhang Xuanyu jumped up and was about to pounce, but his neck was tight, someone strangled him from behind, and a snowy dagger cut his throat, Zhang Xuan slammed his elbow, the other party screamed, and his ribs were broken five or six.

He immediately grabbed the opponent's hand and threw it on the back, and the person behind him rose up with his feet in the air and smashed it hard at the spear-wielding soldier, who couldn't dodge and was smashed over.

Zhang Xuan's eyes swept away, and the two of them rushed towards him together, he dodged a knife, and the military thorn in his hand swung out fiercely, and the sharp military thorn pierced from the soldier's jaw and stabbed out from the top of his head.

The other person was so frightened that he turned around and fled, Zhang Xuan threw away the military thorn, jumped down, grabbed a tree root above his head with both hands, his legs rose into the air, clamped his neck from behind, and twisted it hard, the cervical vertebrae were torn into three pieces, and his head fell softly, and he died on the spot.

Jang Hyun picked up the spur from the ground, strode forward, and stabbed the other two wounded soldiers to death without mercy.

At this time, Li Mi finally killed the soldiers who were fighting with him, he stood up out of breath, and was stunned for a moment, Zhang Xuan leaned his back against the root of a tree, his eyes looked at him coldly, and the spikes in his hands were still dripping blood.

There were seven corpses lying around, and each one died horribly.

Li Mi hurriedly raised his hand and explained, "I didn't arrange these people, I really don't know!" ”

It's just that Li Mi's resting place is too coincidental, which makes Zhang Xuan suspicious, he stares at Li Mi for a moment, sees that there is no panic in his eyes, and asks, "These people should at least be your accomplices, right?"

Li Mi smiled bitterly, "What accomplices, more than 100,000 people, who can know whom?" ”

He looked at the costumes of these soldiers, took out a bronze medal, and said in surprise: "They are all Yang Xuangan's tiger guards, all of them are extremely vicious, you can-"

Li Mi gave a thumbs up and praised: "Amazing, one person can deal with seven tiger guards, and the fierce general is nothing more than that!" ”

"It's nothing, seven little thieves, it's not a martial victory."

Zhang Xuan pricked up his ears and listened for a moment, then immediately picked up a knife and said to Li Mi: "Let's go!" The cavalry of the Sui army is about to catch up. ”

Li Mi was startled, he also faintly heard a shouting and scolding in the distance, and hurriedly picked up two short spears, "Wait for me!" He chased after Jang Hyun, who was striding away.

．．．．．．．

It was not until the next morning that they completely escaped their pursuers and went around to an abandoned official road in the north, where Zhang Xuan stabbed a few fish in a stream, and Li Mi brought flint and velvet, and they soon lit a fire in a small forest to roast fish to satisfy their hunger.

Li Mi had already grilled a fat carp, and handed it to Zhang Xuan with a smile, "The carp is a hair thing, I have a hidden disease in my body and can't eat it, you come first, I'll grill the crucian carp." ”

Zhang Xuan pierced a crucian carp on the military thorn, then handed the military thorn and the fish to Li Mi, exchanged it for the grilled carp, and said with a smile: "Then I'm welcome!" ”

Li Mi took the military thorn, and while concentrating on grilling fish on the fire, he asked casually: "Listening to Brother Zhang Xian's accent, it doesn't look like a Chang'an person!" ”

"I'm from Chang'an, but I've been a monk in Hanoi since I was a child."

Li Mi suddenly smiled and said, "I said! Zhang Xiandi's accent is very similar to the Hanoi area, he was originally a monk in Hanoi, but many monasteries were burned down during this rebellion, and there will be many monks like Zhang Xiandi who were forced to return to the world, I don't know which monastery Zhang Xiandi is in Hanoi? ”

Zhang Xuan smiled, lowered his head and munched on the fish, and did not answer his words, although Li Mi's tone was very relaxed, talking and laughing, but he was obviously exploring his details.

Li Mi, a person with the potential to be a hero, is just a legend at first sight, if he doesn't find out Zhang Xuan's bottom carefully, how can he escape with Zhang Xuan with confidence.

Li Mi casually grilled fish on the fire, but quickly glanced at Zhang Xuan out of the corner of his eye, and saw that he was almost finished eating a fish, and Li Mi's eyes flashed with an imperceptible sneer.
