Chapter 1408: Midnight Pursuit
Without the red rainbow flowing clouds, the two could only walk forward. The ground is very messy, and I have just experienced a big storm, and I can't even find the original road!
Xuan Bao simply practiced the Qi Flying Technique that Xiao Yin had just let her comprehend, fly into the air from time to time, look at the surrounding scenery or the stars in the sky, and use it to identify the direction, walked for more than an hour, and finally found the direction of Qiluo City.
"Did you see that?" Xiao Yin said to Xuan Bao as she walked, "The traces on the ground are all spiral, which means that not only did we spin in the air just now, but in fact, everything was not blown south from the south as we saw it before!"
When the storm just rose, Xuanbao thought that it was sweeping from the north to the south, and if he didn't dodge, he would probably be able to blow people to the border between Helan and the Central Plains.
But after listening to Xiao Yin's explanation, coupled with his own feelings, Xuan Bao also knew that Xiao Yin's words were right.
Xiao Yin continued: "In this way, the monster's best thing should not be such a storm, but a tornado! There are often tornadoes here in Mobei, and the next time we encounter them, we must pay attention! But I think that monster won't be able to do evil for a while, it has been injured by Lingluan, and it is estimated that it will have to recuperate for a while!"
Suddenly remembering that he had just picked up the black python's severed tail and pinned it behind him, Xuanbao turned around and took it out, it was as thick as a wrist, which shows how thick the black python is!
"It's strange, a monster has no grievances with us, why is he plotting against us here?" Xuan Bao frowned, pondering this matter!
From the very beginning, he felt that this storm had been planned for a long time, and it was also aimed at him and Xiao Yin! Although Mobei has large and small storms every year, most of them blow from the polar direction.
From Mobei to the poles, there are no mountains, all of them are flat rivers, and most of them are ice fields, such open land is indeed an advantageous environment for the formation of storms, but once it blows to Helan, especially after passing the capital of Qiluo, the storm will not be so strong.
So this is the momentum that was formed after the black python added fuel to the fire, just to create trouble for Xuan Bao and Xiao Yin, but why is this happening? Xuanbao's eyes shrank, and a name came to mind - Snake Niang!
The python tail in his hand carried a cold aura, for Xuanbao, this aura was actually a little familiar! Before Xuanbao could carefully distinguish it, he suddenly stopped, grabbed Xiao Yin's arm with one hand, and looked straight ahead!
Xiao Yin also seemed to see something strange, stood beside Xuanbao, and whispered to him, "Xianggong, who is it?"
There was a rapid sound of horses' hooves in front, there were quite a few of them, probably dozens of horses, but it was obviously not a group of people, there was an obvious gap between the five horses in front and those behind, and the people behind had been shouting incessantly.
Without Xiao Yin to explain, Xuan Bao can also hear it, these are all scolding. Now it should be the time period from the fourth watch to the fifth watch, how can there be such a group of horses in this deserted suburb?
There were even interceptions! Arrows kept rushing over and landed in front of Xuan Bao and Xiao Yin. Both of them have red pupils, so they can see from a distance, although the arrows have not yet reached the distance to hurt them, but with the speed of these people, it is only a matter of breathing!
"Let's get out of the way!" Xuan Bao said to Xiao Yin, taking her hand and walking behind a row of poplars next to her.
This place should not be far from Qiluo City, avoiding the main area of the storm just now, so there are many trees, and they are not affected by the storm.
It's really strange that there are still people chasing and killing at this time, after all, this is Helan, not the Central Plains, and the sturdy men here have basically been taken away by King Bulu Khan, and according to the distance they shoot arrows, these people should be either army or private soldiers, so they will have such riding skills and arm strength.
I came to Helan to find someone, not to meddle in things, not to mention that they are all a group of mortals, such disputes belong to their own affairs, Xuanbao is Emperor Xuan, not a nanny, not a hero, when he sees a fight, he has to rush up and draw a sword to help, that is not what the emperor should do at all!
"Dodo!" Although those fast horses rushed closer, a few arrows actually pierced the night sky and stared at the trunk of the tree in front of Xuanbao!
Xuanbao stopped Xiao Yin behind him, reached out and pulled out an arrow, it was very rough in his hand, and if he looked closely, it was not an ordinary wooden pole in the Central Plains, but like a bone!
Xuanbao's face changed, and he looked up at those people, could it be that the chasing soldiers were Helan soldiers? If they were chasing, could the people in front of them be the Central Plains? Could it be that they were ghost hands?
Soon one of the people in front of him was shot and fell off his horse! The companion next to him slowed down, and the person who had fallen off the horse shouted loudly, and Xuanbao breathed a sigh of relief, speaking in the Helan dialect!
It's just that the Helan people have just been wiped out in the Central Plains, and even the king of Bulu Khan has already died there, so they are still in the mood to fight? Isn't it the situation of the whole country now?
Along the way, it is true that every household is hung with yellow flags and black yarns, which is the way for the Heran people to pay tribute to their deceased relatives. I really didn't expect that at this time, they were still in the mood to fight!
After hearing the shouts of the man who had fallen from his horse, the man who had been slow down grabbed his horse's belly and continued to gallop forward, but the man who fell from the horse with an arrow was trampled alive by the cavalry that followed!
At least twenty or so galloping horses had stepped on him, and without looking over, they already knew that he had been trampled to death!
Xiao Yin's little hand holding Xuanbao's arm tightened, if such a scene is far away, maybe he can't bear to see it, close his eyes and twist his head to pass, but it happened in front of him, almost like stepping on a person alive in front of the two of them, not only Xiao Yin, but even Xuanbao can't bear to look at it anymore!
One of the horses chasing behind shouted loudly, and with his shout, many people took out their meteor crossbows and fired them frantically at the people in front! Cunningly, this time they didn't shoot people, but those people's horses!
There were four other people in front of him, except for one who was rushing desperately at all, and the remaining three were all blocking him with their bodies! When the arrows came at him, one of them used a knife, one with a sword, and one with two large copper hammers, and smashed the arrows that flew behind him!
Seeing that their skills are very good, they should all have the level of a martial king, but they can block the arrows shot on their bodies, but they can't block the arrows shot on the horses, and with a neighing sound, the three of them all turned on their backs and fell to the ground!
At this time, the person who rushed to the front was already close to Xuanbao, under the red pupils, Xuanbao looked at him dressed in a brocade robe, wearing a high hat on his head, and his face was covered by a black cloth, typical of the Helan people, and his status was good. But he held a barrel in one hand on his chest.
After a closer look, I found that the clothes on this person's body were already bloodstained, and there were several tattered places, especially the shoulders and back, and obvious wounds had been exposed in some places!
The most important thing is the batch of good horses under his crotch, although the foot strength is good, but at this moment he has already foamed at the mouth, it is obvious that his physical strength has reached the limit, and he is about to be unable to support it!
When he ran over, the pursuers behind him also quickly rushed over, and rushed directly in front of the three men who had already been beaten off the horse!
Those three men were also fierce men, and they used manpower to resist the momentum of the galloping horse! Especially the one who made the double hammer, he smashed a galloping horse, and then smashed the next one with a double hammer, but he was still knocked away by the third horse, but fortunately, his body was strong enough, and he got up immediately after falling to the ground, and rushed up again with the double hammer!
The two men who used the sword and the sword did not rely on brute force so much, they rushed forward with the horse team, but they did not use their own flesh and blood to carry the galloping horse, and the sword was swung continuously, killing and killing the horse!
The people on the horse were holding meteor crossbows, and they could attack from a distance, but they were not lethal in close combat, so they couldn't protect one by one, some were cut off in the legs and feet, and some were cut off by the crotch war horses, and they fell down on the back of the war horses!
For a while, there was chaos on the official road, and the three of them overturned more than a dozen pursuers with their superb martial arts! However, the enemy was far more than these dozen people, and a large number of pursuers still let them go and followed a man wearing a golden helmet to continue to chase forward!
Xuan Bao and Xiao Yin watched from the sidelines thrilling, the armed struggle in the mortal world has always been the bloodiest! Although the battle of divine skills is more lethal, but the casualties are not so bloody, sometimes the enemy dies under the divine skills, but the corpse can also be kept intact, not even a drop of blood gushes out, but the battle of martial arts is not good, attracting blood, the scene is deadly, very cruel!
Especially the one who made the double hammer, it was simply killing the god in the world, that pair of double hammers was the largest Xuanbao had ever seen, each one was enough for hundreds of catties, and the two added up were estimated to be more than three hundred catties!
The Helan people are not as tall and mighty as Hu Xiaoren in terms of average stature, but that doesn't mean that there are no people with such a stature among them! This one of the two hammers is five big and three thick, taller than Xuanbao, and one arm is thicker than his thighs, and he picks a pair of big hammers like meteors, as long as it hits a person, no matter what part it is, it can smash people into the air, and they can't get up again!
And this person's biggest hobby is to smash people's heads, and as soon as the hammer goes down, the whole person's head is completely exploded by the hammer, and the scene is extremely bloody. With such a cruel method, even Xuanbao couldn't bear to look at it, and Xiao Yin even stuck it to his chest and closed his eyes.
"The pursuer is a member of the Golden Cavalry Domain, and the person wearing the golden helmet should be the general next to the vassal king, so that he is qualified to wear the golden helmet! The Golden Cavalry Domain has always been at odds with the royal family of Helan, and it seems that the vassal king of the Golden Cavalry Domain was the best candidate for the Khan King before, I don't know why, he was taken the throne by the later Bulu Khan King!" Xiao Yin lay in Xuan Bao's arms and said to him softly.
Xuan Bao looked a little depressed, the mortal world has always done everything to kill each other, as if there is really some deep hatred, they seem to be more willing to torture their own kind than to deal with the enemy, this is also where Xuan Bao is most dissatisfied with the mortal world!
"Do you know who these people are who are being hunted down?" Xuan Bao asked Xiao Yin in a low voice, who would a vassal king's troops fight against? Could it be a traitor around him?
Xiao Yin shook her head and said, "I don't know, I can't see it!" But with the skills and dress of these three people, they should also belong to a big force. Maybe it has something to do with the royal family!"
