Chapter 491: Send the girl back first
A few people suddenly appeared on the street in front, and Liu Wei and Liu Er were stunned. When the people blocking their way let out a low shout, Liu Wei didn't think about it, hugged Liu'er, turned around and went back into the dark alley.
"Don't let them run!" As soon as Liu Wei returned to the alley, there was another low shout behind him.
The low drink that came into Liu Bian's voice was not loud, and when he heard this low drink, Liu Bian, who was holding Liu Er, accelerated his feet even faster.
Rushing into the alley with them were three men in dark clothes. After the three men rushed into the alley with long swords in their hands, their eyes had not yet adapted to the darkness for a while, and their speed was not as fast as Liu Wei's.
But soon, the eyes of the three men gradually adapted to the surrounding environment, but at this time, Liu Wei, who was holding Liu Er, had already run away.
Although they couldn't see Liu Wei's figure or hear the footsteps, the three men in black did not give up chasing. As if they had a heart, they silently chased along the alley in the direction where Liu Wei turned around and ran back.
As he was running forward, the man on the far left suddenly let out a muffled snort, tilted his body, and fell to the ground. In the narrow alley, a thick smell of blood suddenly filled the air.
The man next to him fell to the ground, and the other two men who had already rushed out of the city for two or three steps hurriedly stopped. At the moment when they stopped, one of the men let out a muffled snort, his chest hurt, his brain instantly lost consciousness, and he fell backwards on his back.
Another man felt his companion fall to the ground, and was about to pick up his long sword and slash forward, when his arm was raised, and a sharp long sword slashed against his throat.
With a hint of coldness, the man felt a faint pain in his throat. The pain was not intense, and it was even muffled by the cold sensation. His neck was cold for a while, and then the man felt a warmth in his throat, and there was a squirting sound in his ears.
He didn't see what the man who had cut his neck looked like until he died, and he stood in the alley, the blood gushing from his neck became weaker and weaker, and when the blood was just bubbling and no longer splashing, his body stiffened, and he fell straight backwards.
The last man fell, his heavy body hit the bluestone ground, and there was a muffled sound of "pop".
Liu Wei, who had solved the three assassins in an instant, heard this muffled sound, turned back to the corner where Liu Er was sitting, and hugged Liu Er again.
Being held in Liu Wei's arms, Liu Er flashed a pair of big eyes and stared at Liu Wei's face.
It was dark in front of her, although she tried her best to see Liu Wei clearly, but in the dark, all she could see was a hazy shadow.
"How do you have such skills? I've never heard my father say that you have such martial arts! Liu Biao hugged Liu Er and walked a few steps towards the entrance of the alley, Liu Er finally did not restrain the doubts in her heart, and asked Liu Bian this question that haunted her heart.
"People always change!" Liu Wei didn't answer Liu Er's question directly, he just hugged her and walked towards the alley, and answered a vague sentence.
After Liu Wei's answer, the confusion on Liu Er's face became thicker and thicker. But after thinking about it, there was nothing wrong with Liu Wei's answer.
The Han dynasty declined and was deposed by Dong Zhuo as the emperor, if Liu Wei did not change some of his previous temperament and practice martial arts diligently, it would be impossible for him to leave from Luoyang City, which was on guard in Senyang, with Tang Ji, who was completely ill in martial arts.
Liu Er still remembers very clearly that when Liu Wei fled from Luoyang with Tang Ji, it reached Wang Yue's ears, and Wang Yue was also stunned for a long time, and since then he has not mentioned to Liu Er how unbearable Liu Wei was in the past.
Holding Liu Er, he walked quickly to the mouth of the alley they had just come, Liu Wei stood sideways on the edge of the alley, turned his head and carefully observed the movement outside the alley for a moment.
The street outside was quiet, and there was no sign of anyone lingering, but in the distance, there was a faint burst of human voices.
On the side of the house where Liu Wei and Liu Er were surrounded by assassins, there was already a fire, and many people in the city and the officers and soldiers of the three guards of the Luoyang Army were shouting and busy fighting the fire. Their shouts drifted from afar, bringing a very discordant noise to the otherwise peaceful night.
After sticking his head out again and glancing at the street to make sure that there were no assassins nearby, Liu Biancai hugged Liu Er and jumped out of the alley.
was held in Liu Wei's arms, and as Liu Wei ran, Liu Er could feel that every step he took, her body would tremble with his running.
has been running with Liu Er in his arms for a long time, Liu Wei's breathing is much heavier than before, and his steps are not as vigorous as Fang Cai.
Liu Er, who could feel Liu Bian's obvious change, leaned against the dim light on the street, looked up at Liu Bian, and whispered to him: "Your Highness, please let Liu Er down, Liu Er can walk ...... her own house."
Since Liu Wei woke up, Liu Er either called him "you" directly, or called him "His Royal Highness the King of Luoyang" with a sneering meaning, and calling him "His Royal Highness" was the first time in the world.
However, Liu Wei was not in the mood to study the change in Liu Er's title for him at this time, he knew very well that if he stayed in the quiet street for a while, he would be more in danger of being intercepted by the assassins. He must take Liu'er with him and find the nearest dragoon guard as soon as possible.
didn't get a response from Liu Bian, Liu Er looked up at Liu Bian, who was running quickly with her in her arms, and his steps were already a little staggering.
The light on the streets, though still weak, is much better than the alleys where you can't see your fingers. Through the dim light, Liu Er could already see Liu Wei's angular and resolute face.
Although Liu Wei's breathing was heavy, he didn't have the idea of putting Liu Er down at all. At this moment, only Liu Er understands that she was seriously injured, although she was not directly injured in her leg, but if she was really allowed to walk by herself, I am afraid that the blood from the wound would flow faster, and she would fall to the ground if she didn't go far.
Knowing why Liu Wei didn't put her down, Liu Er's heart was faintly grateful, and looking at Liu Wei's eyes, she was also a little more kind.
However, she also understood that as an assassin, she had repeatedly convicted Liu Bian, and even almost took Liu Bian's life. When Liu Wei finds the nearby Luoyang Army, I am afraid that she will not be able to escape the fate of being cut off her head.
Liu Wei, who was holding Liu Er, didn't think so much at this time. He trotted to the right and left to watch for an assassin from the side.
The two ran across two streets, and the voices of the people in front of them became more and more loud, and many of the people and officers and soldiers in the city rushed to the streets where the fire was burning.
"Stop!" Liu Wei was walking towards the fire with Liu Er in his arms, when a loud cheer suddenly came from the front.
This explosion of shouting came into the ears of Liu Wei and Liu Er, and Liu Er involuntarily stirred up, a flash of vigilance flashed in her eyes, and the muscles in her body stiffened. Liu Wei let out a long breath after hearing this loud shout, and kept holding on to his physical strength, and finally was unloaded when this shout came, and sat on the ground.
He sat down on the ground, and Liu'er, who was held in his arms, also fell down.
Liu Wei, who had lost much strength all over his body, used all his remaining strength at the moment when Liu Er fell, wrapped his arms into his arms, and took Liu Er to his chest.
Being hugged tightly by Liu Bian's chest, Liu Er escaped the end of falling on the hard ground, her pretty face was attached to Liu Bian's sharply undulating chest, listening to the sound of his heart beating violently in his chest, Liu Er's cheeks were inexplicably flushed.
As soon as the two of them fell to the ground, a chaotic sound of footsteps ran towards them, and in an instant, more than a dozen tiger guards wearing Luoyang military armor and snow-white feathers floating on their helmets surrounded them.
"Your Highness!" As soon as Liu Wei and Liu Er were surrounded, the officer who led the team of tiger guards shouted with a shocked face: "I waited hard to find it, but I didn't want to see His Highness here!" ”
Holding Liu Er, who didn't know how many miles he had run, he didn't even say a word at the moment, just sat on the ground and waved his hand at the officer.
Seeing Liu Wei waving his hand, the officer hurriedly turned his head and said to a tiger guard beside him: "Go and invite a few generals to come, just say that I will find His Highness!" "No!" The soldier answered, and ran swiftly in the direction of the burning fire.
Liu Wei sat on the ground, holding Liu Er in his arms, and although the tiger guards on the side put on a defensive posture, beware of an assassin suddenly coming out nearby, no one dared to easily step forward and help the two up.
Liu Wei, who was sitting on the ground, gasped for a while before he moved his body, raised his head and said to the Tiger Benwei officer who was standing aside: "You wait to send Miss Liu'er to the official mansion quickly, please heal the wounds, and this king is waiting for a few generals here!" ”
"No!" Finally, when Liu Wei spoke, the officer hurriedly answered, and then beckoned to several tiger guards and shouted to them: "Escort Miss Liu'er back to the official mansion!" ”
The tiger guards responded, and were about to step forward to help Liu Er up, and Liu Wei, who was still sitting on the ground with Liu Er in his arms, said to the officer: "Miss Liu Er is very important, don't hurt her for half a point, you wait for all to go to the official mansion, and this king is waiting here alone!" ”
"This ......" Liu Bian's order made the officer very embarrassed, the officer was stunned for a moment, and bowed down with a frightened face and said to Liu Bian: "Assassins are rampant in the city, and we definitely don't dare to leave His Highness here!" If an Assassin takes the opportunity to come here...... We can't afford to be guilty of dereliction of duty! ”
"How dare you disobey the king's orders?" Turning his head to look at the officer, Liu Wei glared at him, and said in an unquestionable tone: "Leave with Miss Liu'er immediately!" Otherwise, this king will ask you for the crime of disobeying military orders! ”
was shouted by Liu Wei, the officer shivered excitedly, although he refused to leave immediately, but he did not dare to disobey Liu Wei's intentions, and responded with entanglement, and then waved to the other tiger guards and shouted to them: "Escort Miss Liu'er to the official mansion!" ”
When Liu Wei explained to the tiger guards that when he escorted Liu'er back to the official mansion, he did not mention that Liu'er was an assassin, which surprised Liu'er, who was held in his arms.
When several tiger guards stepped forward to pick up Liu Er, she subconsciously turned her head to look at Liu Wei, who was slowly standing up.
The dim starlight reflected on Liu Wei's face, outlining his handsome and angular face more and more clearly.
Surrounded by several tiger guards, Liu Er looked back at Liu Wei's angular but endlessly tired face, and a trace of complexity appeared on her pretty but blood-colored face.
