Chapter 58: The Battle of the Woods
When Yu Sheng saw that the group of men in black had gone to Xuan Hao's room, he shouted:
"You thieves, you sneaking around and poisoning, it's really despicable. ”
As he spoke, he slashed one of the men in black with a sword. Xuan Hao immediately rushed over, a man in black pulled a bow and an arrow, aimed at Yun Yushang, only to see a cold and shining arrow flying over, Xuan Hao flew forward, and blocked the arrow with Long Yuan, Meng Yangjun also rushed when he heard the sound, and saw that there were about five or six in the team of black, so he used Xiao as a sword, and together with Xuan Hao Yushang, forced those people to a dead end, and one of the black-clothed people ordered: "Withdraw!"
Several people turned into black smoke and flew away, Xuan Hao wanted to chase after him, but was pulled by Meng Yangjun and said:
"Your Highness, don't chase after them, these men in black should just be outposts, and there are many more that have not yet arrived. ”
Xuan Hao said: "Brother Meng Yang is right, let's get out of here quickly." ”
So the three of them hurried overnight, not daring to delay at all. As soon as the three of them left the bazaar, less than two miles away, there was a large forest that could not be bypassed, the forest was black and eerie, Xuan Hao took out a road guide insect and let it turn into a lantern to light the way ahead.
As soon as Yu Sheng saw that Xuan Hao also had a way to guide the insects, he was surprised:
"Why does Your Highness have my junior sister's guide?" Xuan Hao forgot about this stubble, so he hurriedly said:
"In this Heavenly Palace, all the palace people with a higher level can use the road guide, not only your junior sister can use it. ”
Feather Dress believed it, so she didn't ask any more questions, and the three of them led into the woods along the way, only to hear the wind rustling the leaves. Meng Yangjun said:
"Be careful, everyone, this forest is very strange. ”
Xuan Hao looked around, saw that it was quiet, searched for breath again, and found that there was no breath around, so he smiled:
"Those men in black can only steal chickens and dogs, if it were me, I would set up an ambush in this forest, this forest is so big, how many people can be hidden!"
Before the words fell, I instantly saw countless black-clothed people pouring out from all directions of the forest, all of whom were holding halberds, like well-trained soldiers. When Xuan Hao saw this, he immediately kept silent.
The group of people was divided into several waves, the first wave retreated, and the second wave went up, Xuan Hao and the three of them were back to back, each resisting one side, but the man in black rushed up layer after layer, and he couldn't cut it all. Yu Sheng said to Xuan Hao and Meng Yangjun:
"It seems that we can't escape today, anyway, the person they want to kill is me, I don't want to burden the two of you, you break out!"
When Xuan Hao heard her say this, he said in a heart: "Brother Meng Yang, you should go first! This matter should not involve you." Then he said to Yu Xiang:
"Do you think I'm going to leave you alone and run away? ”
When Meng Yangjun heard this, he thought: "It's all at this time, you still don't forget to confess." ”
Thinking that he couldn't lose the battle, he said: "I, Meng Yang, am greedy for life and afraid of death, abandoning my friends, and today I will definitely have the three of us advancing and retreating together." ”
After listening to the words of the two, Yu Sheng felt a warm heart, seeing that the encirclement was shrinking, all the people in black came up, and Xuan Hao saw that there were at least fifty or sixty people. And the three of them were exhausted, seeing that a new round of offensive was launched, Xuan Hao was about to make a last fight, and suddenly saw countless arrows shot down from the sky, knocking the new man in black to the ground.
The three of them looked up, it turned out that Chizhu arrived with a pair of people, Chizhu was good at shooting, only to see her holding the sunset bow, firing three arrows at a time, the arrows were not in vain, and the person who was hit by the arrow was wiped out in an instant.
The group of black-clothed men immediately turned their guns and fought with the shadow guards brought by Chizhu, and when Xuan Hao and the three of them saw that reinforcements had arrived, they raised their anger and resisted to the end. For a while, the cold light was shining, the dust was flying, and the surrounding trees were dyed blood red.
Chizhu gradually gained the upper hand, and the man in black saw that the situation was not good, so he immediately gathered the team while fighting, and Chizhu looked in mid-air, and saw that the person who gave the command was commanding in the middle, so he drew the sunset bow and fired three arrows at the man, only to see the three arrows in the air to draw a trail of firelight, like a storm, flying towards the commander.
The man in black turned and saw three arrows flying towards him viciously, so he blocked two with his halberd, but the third arrow passed through the gap between his hand and the halberd, and it was impartial, and just shot him in the heart.
Seeing that the boss was gone, the team of the men in black suddenly became chaotic and scattered in all directions, and Chizhu ordered: "Chase, be sure to catch a few alive." ”
The shadow guards scattered in all directions, to pursue the black-clothed people who had escaped, Chizhu descended from mid-air, seeing that Xuan Hao was already scarred and exhausted protecting Yun Yusheng, and seeing that Meng Yangjun was also there, he couldn't help but feel strange in his heart, the four of them met, and Xuan Hao said:
"How did the eldest sister know we were here?"
Chizhu said angrily: "You kid has grown up in ability, what a big basket, my father was so worried that he fainted, he knew that you were in danger, so he transferred the shadow guard who was with him to me, let me save you, and let me bring you a message." ”
Xuan Hao listened to Chizhu's words and really exclaimed: "Father, Emperor, you said that the people you brought just now are all Father's shadow guards?"
"What do you think? such a master can't be from my palace. "Chizhu Road.
"Then what did the father say?" asked Xuan Hao.
Chizhu suddenly turned pale, then cleared his throat, pretending to be the voice and expression of the Heavenly Emperor at that time:
"You go and tell Xuan Hao, come back to the palace quickly, if there is anything, your father will administer justice for him. ”
Xuan Hao has never heard his father call his name since he was sensible, and the number of times he has spoken to him can be counted on ten fingers, and when he suddenly heard Chizhu say this, his mind was blank, and he couldn't say anything, just in a daze.
Chizhu saw that he was stunned again, so he turned his head and asked Meng Yangjun:
"I don't know why Meng Yangjun is here, could it be that you said in the Spring Festival Garden, the important thing is this?"
Meng Yangjun said: "The fairy of Yunyu is Meng Yang's friend, and Meng Yang should help him. ”
When Chizhu heard him say this, his heart suddenly felt sour, and he wondered what kind of friend he and this Yun Yushang were, and they risked death to save each other like this.
Chizhu ate a jar of stuffy vinegar in his heart, but said on his lips: "Meng Yangjun is really affectionate and righteous!"
As the four of them were talking, the pair of shadow guards came back, and one said, "Princess Chaoyang, more than a dozen people broke through and ran away." ”
"Is there a living mouth?" asked Chizhu.
"No?"
"Waste, didn't you let you stay alive?"
"The subordinates are incompetent, and all those who are caught alive will bite their teeth and take poison and commit suicide. ”
"It seems that they are the dead soldiers, what tokens or tattoos do they have?" Meng Yangjun asked.
The man replied, "No, it's all clean, nothing will be found, and we'll rummage through the corpses in the forest again in a little while to see if there's any alive." ”
While a few people were talking, not far behind Yun Yusheng, there was a man in black who had just passed out, and now he woke up, heard their conversation, and knew that he was injured and couldn't escape, so he raised his halberd, used all his strength, and stabbed Yun Yusheng who was closest to him.
