Chapter Ninety-Six: The Hunt
"Don't be afraid, you will arrive in the capital in another hour, and after you arrive in the capital, I will send you to Dali Temple to complain!" Yan Shuhang said to a middle-aged couple in front of him, "Drink some water first, eat something before you go!" ”
The middle-aged man Fu Bo took a sip of water and thanked the young people in front of him from the bottom of his heart: "Thank you!" If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be here! Alas, there are at least twenty or thirty people in our village who came to the capital to sue the emperor, but I am afraid that only the two of us have walked to the gate of the capital alive! ”
The middle-aged woman, Aunt Fu, sighed and said, "What's the use of coming here? I'm afraid that the officials will protect each other, Dali Temple will not accept our grievances, and the emperor will not be able to see it! Can we ordinary people really fight those who are officials? What's more, the person we sued this time is a relative of the emperor Lao Tzu, and he can call the shots for us! ”
"What nonsense are you! If it doesn't work, what are we going to do here at the risk of being hunted down! The middle-aged man scolded, "Are you worthy of the sons who escorted us all the way here?" ”
"The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people!" Yan Shuhang himself also poured a sip of water, "Today, the son loves the people like a son, as long as your grievances are found to be true, Your Majesty will definitely make the decision for you, I can guarantee you this!" Let's go, we have to enter the capital before it gets dark and close the gates, so that we can arrange your affairs!" ”
"Let's go!" Fu Bo pulled Aunt Fu up, "Hurry up and rush to the capital, our son can also avenge his grievances too soon!" ”
The group continued to hurry, and before they had gone far, a group of blacks suddenly came out of the road on both sides.
Yan Shuhang pulled out his sword and shouted: "Bold thief, the Son of Heaven dares to be presumptuous at his feet, and he doesn't retreat quickly!" ”
The man in black didn't talk nonsense in one fell swoop, and attacked directly towards Yan Shuhang and his party, they were still a little jealous of Yan Shuhang's son-in-law identity, and they had never killed him, but for Aunt Fu Bofu who they were protecting, they were all murderous, taking the vital point and taking people's lives!
Yan Shuhang is not the first time they have encountered these black-clothed killers, naturally they know their intentions, and they also know who they are probably instructed by, and they all tacitly protect the middle-aged couple in the middle, since they have protected them all the way to the foot of the capital, they can't give up halfway here!
And this time the number of people in black is more than twice as good as before, and they are more ferocious, although they still have some scruples about their own group of people, and try not to hurt the lives of their own people, but because this is also the last chance to give it a go, even if it is against them, it is extremely vicious.
"What should I do?" One of them was injured in the arm, and he couldn't resist the ferocious attacks of these black-clothed men, "Hurry up and think of a way, we can't hold it anymore!" ”
Yan Shuhang just dodged a sword stabbing him in the shoulder, and hurriedly said, "Don't panic, don't forget what kind of place this is!" Someone will come to the rescue, we just need to hold on a little longer! ”
Although Yan Shuhang encouraged his companions again, the attack of the man in black still came like a tide, and there was no chance to breathe at all, and gradually several people could not support it, seeing that Aunt Fu Bofu was about to become a ghost under the knife, Yan Shuhang had to support it alone, and protected Aunt Fu Bofu behind him with one enemy and three.
Seeing a sword coming towards Yan Shuhang's throat, he hurriedly dodged it in a panic, but this person's sword was just a false move, and when he dodged, this sword only took Fu Bo.
"Daddy, be careful!" Aunt Fu screamed and blocked in front of Fu Bo, and the sword pierced her chest directly, and blood came out like a column of water.
"you! you! Wake up! Wake up! Fu Bo screamed miserably, holding Aunt Fu's body in disbelief.
Yan Shuhang was startled, stabbed to death the black-clothed killer who had just killed with a sword, and glanced at Fu Bo who was crying with compassion, and the body of Aunt Fu who had turned pale and didn't even have time to say a last word.
And the killer's attack did not stop, Yan Shuhang and his party were all wounded, seeing that they were about to be unable to hold on, and when Fu Bo was about to die in the hands of these cold-blooded killers, several feather arrows flew in, and several black-clothed killers were immediately shot at the vital point and fell to the ground.
The rest of the killers were also stunned by this sudden change, and raised their eyes in horror, only to see a few fast horses coming in their direction, and Fang Cai's feather arrows were fired from the crossbow arrows in their hands!
Crossbow arrows, the standard configuration of the Xiao Cavalry Battalion, could it be that the people from the Xiao Cavalry Battalion are here!
The people in black suddenly felt a burst of pressure, and the leader hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up and complete the task and prepare to retreat!" So the people in black attacked Fu Bo more and more fiercely, and Yan Shuhang and his party had already planned to give up because of the rescue, but now they came to the spirit.
I saw a man flying up from the horse, falling behind this group of fighting people, when he landed, the long sword in his hand had already been drawn, his movements were beautiful but extremely fast, and several people were immediately cut by him.
"He is worthy of being the first master of the world, and he is really handsome!" Yan Shuhang praised.
Yang Xing kicked the black-clothed man in front of him away, pulled out the long sword from the corpse, and slowly walked to Yan Shuhang's side, protecting Fu Bo behind him like a god, and said: "Yan Gongzi praised it falsely, compared to the high righteousness of Yan Gongzi and others, what is my small skill of carving insects!" ”
At this time, the Xiao cavalry battalion riding fast horses also came closer, and the leader of the man in black was already frightened by the sword aura emanating from Yang Xing's body, and when he saw this, he immediately shouted: "Withdraw!" The remaining men in black immediately flew away.
Jiang Weiran grabbed the reins of the horse and asked in a deep voice, "Do you need to chase it!" ”
"Forget it, let them go!" Yang Xing said, "Several sons are injured, let's treat the wounds for a few sons first!" ”
"Yes!" Jiang Weiran dismounted, and beckoned his companions on the horse to put away their weapons, a few of them healed their sons, and a few of them checked whether there were any survivors among the fallen black-clothed people.
Yan Shuhang's hand was light, but his arm was stabbed, and after a simple bandage, he got up and said to Fu Bo: "Fu Bo, don't cry, let's bury Aunt Fu first, and then enter Beijing, we can't let Aunt Fu die in vain!" ”
Fu Bo kowtowed to everyone and cried: "The child is wronged, sons, you must be the master of the grass people!" My son was also forced to death by them, and the grass people are now alone! The grass people live to get justice for them! ”
"Fauber, don't kowtow!" Yan Shuhang helped Fu Bo up, and Fu Bo refused: "Gongzi wants the grass people to kowtow to you a few times, several sons are all precious bodies, and today for my cheap life, they are all injured, so that the grass people don't want to go!" The grass people can't repay it, they kowtow, and they don't know how to repay the kindness of the sons! ”
"When the road is uneven, it is what we should do, Fu Bo, you don't have to take it to heart, bury Aunt Fu first, and it is important to hurry up and enter Beijing!"
"Everything is under Childe's arrangement!"
Jiang Weiran called a few people to help bury Fu Bo, and then reported the situation to Yang Xing: "There are eleven killers in total, and there are no living mouths, either they die on the spot, or they commit suicide by taking poison!" ”
"If you can't escape, you will commit suicide, this is the rule of this industry, Weiran, you take your brothers to clean up this place, and then take them back to restore their lives!"
"Yes!"
Yan Shuhang looked at Jiang Weiran's capable appearance now, sighed, and said, "The Xiaoqi camp is really a good place to sharpen people, this kid has changed so much!" ”
"It's him who has potential, Jiang Shuai has never looked at people!" Yang Xing said, he turned his head and glanced at Yan Shuhang in admiration, "Young Master Yan, I really didn't expect you to do this for this couple!" ”
"Several of us are like-minded people, although we are in the Duke's house, but since childhood, our dream has been to be a chivalrous ranger, just because of our background, there is no real Jianghu people at ease, but this hoe is not worse than them, since we have decided to help Aunt Fu Bofu get justice, naturally I will not give up halfway!"
Yang Xing hugged his fists towards Yan Shuhang's companions one by one: "Your chivalry and courage, Yang Xing admires!" ”
Yan Shuhang thought for a while and said: "Now, I'm afraid that the city gate has been closed, so I can only take Fu Bo to settle down outside the capital for a night, and then enter the capital tomorrow!" ”
"It's inevitable that there will be a lot of dreams at night, so it's better to enter Beijing early!" Yang Xing took out a token from his arms and handed it to Yan Shuhang, "With this token, you can enter the city tonight!" ”
"This thing belongs to the son of the world, right?" Yan Shuhang hesitated for a moment and said, "This time the matter is related to Princess Xiuwen, and the prince should not be involved again!" ”
"From the very beginning of the investigation to the present day, I have led people to rescue me, and I have long been involved with the son!" Yang Xing said, "Moreover, this is also the arrangement of the prince, since he has such an arrangement, it is natural that he has his intentions!" ”
After a pause, Yang Xing said again: "It's just that although you are chivalrous and righteous this time, you will also offend Princess Xiuwen, I am afraid that you will be careful in the future!" ”
"We are not ignorant people, we already know the consequences before we do things, so no matter who we offend, for the sake of the righteousness in our hearts, we are not afraid of being offended, please don't worry about us! We're not doing it for him, it's just for something we're holding on! ”
"No matter what, I thank you in advance on behalf of the prince!" Yang Xing said, "Then I will also say goodbye first and go back to report the situation here to the prince!" ”
"Farewell!"
